Laffitte: *walks into a room, crying* Blackbeard: What's up with you??? Laffitte: Shiryu just told me he didn't love me anymore! Blackbeard Pirates: *all look at Shiryu* Shiryu: All I said was that he didn't have to do a tap routine after every other sentence he said. Laffitte, sobbing: It means the same thing!

Blackbeard Pirates Art Skills Headcanons
Basically, my headcanons on what type of artists Blackbeard and his crew could be. Do what you will with this information.
Blackbeard: He's not the greatest artist, but he's not terrible either. He can do pretty good sketches of people, animals and objects, which he takes some pride in.
Burgess: He's about as good an artist as Luffy is, which is to say he's not very good. For this reason, he's not allowed to help draw up a raid plan for the crew to embark on. Well, actually it's not that he's not allowed-he just doesn't want to because of all the criticism he got the one time he did...
Burgess: Okay! I helped draw up the plans, Laffitte!
Laffitte: Oh, very good! Show it to the group so we can go over it.
Burgess: *lays down drawing, which is the most barely comprehensible drawing the group had ever seen*
Blackbeard: Uh...I can't tell what's happening here...Like what is that big blue and gray mass???
Burgess: It's the marine ship we're raiding.
Laffitte: What's with the giant letter T on that brown square we're all standing on???
Burgess: That's the raft.
Augur: What's with the devil giraffe holding...god, I don't even want to say what it looks like...
Burgess: That's YOU holding your GUN!
Augur: Why is my neck so long???
Burgess: Necks are hard!
Doc Q: Is that amoeba riding that deformed dog supposed to be me and Stronger???
Burgess: *grabs drawing and eats it* I HATE CRITICISM!!!
Blackbeard: Maybe don't draw so badly and we won't criticize...
Laffitte: Will draw the most detailed and perfect images ever, like Da Vinci level art, and say "Honestly, I can't even draw a circle!"
Van Augur: He's a roughly okay artist, but he doesn't draw much so he doesn't mess around with improvement.
Doc Q: He can draw organs, he can draw skeletons, he can draw muscles, he can draw any body part you can think of, but he CANNOT draw people "intact and with the skin still on them", like Blackbeard would probably say. He can draw realistic animals pretty well, though, especially horses. He can also draw cute anthropomorphic animals (Minks? Hybrid Zoans?) pretty good, which was discovered when he was asked to draw up the raid plans one time...
Doc Q: Okay, I got the plans drawn...
Laffitte: Very good! Now show them to the group.
Doc Q: *pushes drawing towards group*
The entire crew are drawn as cute anthro-animals, such as Blackbeard being a hippo, Burgess being a tiger, Augur being a hunting dog of some sort, Laffitte being a dove, and Q being a horse.
Blackbeard: Uh, why are we all Minks?
Doc Q: I can't draw humans...
Burgess: I like how I'm a tiger! It fits me!
Augur: Well, I suppose this is a step up from Burgess's drawing skills...
Burgess: Hey!
Laffitte: Aw, you drew it so CUTE, Doc! I didn't think you had this in you!
Blackbeard: Yeah, I mean, considering how you are, this is a big surprise. Makes me rethink you as a person, actually.
Doc Q: ... *grabs drawing and releases it in the wind*
Laffitte: Aw, no! Don't do that! We were praising it! Not teasing you!
Q's got a reputation he likes to keep intact. He doesn't draw in that style very often.
Shiryu of the Rain: Cannot draw and refuses to demonstrate how bad he is.
Catarina Devon: She can draw perfect images of women, but men...she's not very good at and refuses to improve. One time she was asked to draw up plans, and she drew the entire crew as women, which raised eyebrows.
Blackbeard: Did you seriously have to draw us like this?
Devon: I can't draw male bodies well.
Blackbeard: Okay, I guess that's fair. Which one of us is supposed to be this lady here? Cause, damn! You made her the most hideous!
Devon: That's you.
Blackbeard: *starts to fume*
Augur: Why are Laffitte, Doc and I drawn so...beautifully?
Devon: Eh, you're the most attractive boys out of the crew, so I tried to match that.
Laffitte: Ohhohoho! Thank you!
Doc Q: You think I'M attractive?! *coughs up blood*
Augur: ...Okay.
Blackbeard: *fumes more*
Avalo Pizarro: He draws in a surprisingly cute style, maybe something close to chibi or cutesy-western cartoon style? But he gives everyone cat ears for some reason.
Vasco Shot: He's not the best artist, but he's a LOT better than the crew expects. He claims he draws best when he's really drunk.
Sanjuan Wolf: His drawing style is pretty simplistic, like stick-figure type art. What he draws is pretty comprehensive though, since he usually adds a detail to signify which figure is who, like a top hat for Laffitte, a scythe for Doc Q, or a sword and cigar for Shiryu. He can only draw in the sand or dirt due to lack of giant paper, though.

just a few things that amused me: chapter 1087 spoilers
It's a serious chapter, and Oda's serious about us all realising the threat of Blackbeard and his crew and affiliates, but just a few frames from me:
Tumblr media
A couple of weeks before the 5 week recuperation period, Grus was put out that Garp hadn't mentioned that he, along with Koby, was the future of the marines.
He asks directly. I like that. But poor Prince Grus. 😁
Tumblr media
Garp gets severely wounded by an invisible Shiryu, and Koby wants to take the blame because he states that Garp protected him (which he probably did). But Garp's response is for Koby to "Don't flatter yourself"...Shiryu having had Garp "in his sights the whole time", which also seems truer.
Really, if these three guys had headed to the ship, Garp would have less to worry about and the ship would probably be safer, but messy kinda humans and co. make up the world of One Piece.
Tumblr media
And the first strip above is funny—Kuzan obviously having been treated similar to Garp's rearing (or not) of Dragon and Luffy (that's only kinda the funny part), and Garp invading his personal space and time in the way he did Sengoku's, once Kuzan was made an admiral.
But that familiarity makes the words leading up to the battle between Garp and Kuzan below cut! Man. Especially considering Kuzan...
...saved Smoker. Was gonna say, well, he's obviously not part of SWORD. But then I remembered about Smoker. Hmm.
Tumblr media
There's Tsuru's granddaughter, right? . And Tashigi gets the caretaker's role again (for Hibari, Akainu's granddaughter, possibly)? BUT, if Garp is captured again, or Koby and co., fingers crossed she gets a more active role. But it makes me wonder when you see characters like:
Tumblr media
Maki from Jujutsu Kaisen or even
Tumblr media
Power from Chainsaw Man (and others),
how Oda feels about really having let the ball drop with his female characters. Not all of them, but he set up so many great characters, and what do you think happened? Editorial interference? Oda liked the concept, but not the manifestation? Too difficult to draw? After all, he's just learnt how to draw sexy bums, apparently, which is why we're getting so many (female) bums in the manga lately.
From Sandman on Twitter:
New SBS: Oda: We see many drawings with angles of butts. In a future island, I tried to make a different design from the present day. I ended up with a costume that shows butts. I researched how to draw sexy butts. It's fun to draw butts now because I can draw them well.
I don't hold out hope for him. JKK and CSM are in no way perfect, but it's a better balance.
Then again:
Tumblr media
Maybe Tashigi and Shigure will easily deal with this! Fingers crossed. Or maybe this is when Smoker makes an appearance.
Anyway:
Tumblr media
Do you think that Kuzan might've rushed in as a protective measure? In that, he wasn't protecting the small fry, but was protecting Garp from them, even though they sent each other flying (although, possibly out of the way of harm?). Seems the horde is closing in on Garp, though. With Prince Grus standing by to fight them off.
Tumblr media
Also, Perona and Moria are still floating and lurking around!
My quick few frames are never a quick few frames!

OP 1087 Manga Spoilers
Garp continues fighting against Aokiji and the Blackbeard pirates. Aokiji and Garp punch each other with haki after a flashback of them training together and Shiryu the absolute cucknut stabs Garp as he protects Coby. Garp is on the ground as he tells Coby that justice is going to prevail.
IS ODA REALLY GOING TO KILL OFF GARP??? I refuse to accept it. There is no way that Luffy will be able to bear it. Especially with the looming threat of Shanks dying against Blackbeard too. I swear I hate Blackbeard more and more everytime he shows up. I want him to get a Galaxy Impact straight in his nutsack. Garp dying would be in line with the deaths of the big three of The Old Generation (Whitebeard and Roger), though,so I'm scared that it might actually become a reality. I don't think any will of D. holder has died a natural death either, so I guess maybe this time was going to come sooner or later. I don't want Coby and Luffy to suffer the loss of such a massive benevolent figure in their lives though 😔

One Piece Chapter 1080 - Initial Thoughts
Tumblr media
And we're back
After last chapter threw more gas into the fire we are back for more One Piece, which means more gas is going to be added to the fire again
Egghead is crazy, but we've yet to have the incident, so what is the boiling point?
Spoilers for the Chapter, Support the Official Release too
A cover request page of Kawamatsu and Hiyori was neat, but I do reiterate I'd like to see a post-Wano cover story
Well we're blueballed from Egghead again and catching up with the Koby situation
Koby's already busted himself out!
And the Cross Guild have a high ranking bounty on him, they seem to rank by stars (stars = treasure chests ~ 100 million), must've been taking notes from Dressrosa
Given how they say Captains are usually 1 Star, I'd guess the Cross Guild know that Koby is a part of SWORD as a Rear Admiral
The...the island just talked???
Did someone steal Pica's fruit or something?
It's Pizarro, and he wants Koby alive
Ah I see, Koby's been freeing the other prisoners (they were called slaves so I guess they were all put to work like Kaido did) in the process
So Pizarro has the Island Island Fruit, it's still concerning that Shiryu is here too, given his stealth proficiency
Vasco Shot is here, with the Glug Glug or Liquor Liquor fruit, which makes him a liquor man - Zoro will feel personally attacked that he never knew such a fruit existed
Vasco wants to burn down the place, but Pizarro reminds him that they just fixed up Rocky Port - still a wild mystery
And Sanjuan Wolf just has the regular Giant Giant Fruit, kinda feel like he and Burgess got the bad hand
As Koby is being chased he's flashed back to when he was brought to Fullalead
Blackbeard wants to make the island a sovereign state recognized by the WG
Teach must be thinking about how Australia came to be, since it too was a country of criminals (due to the British Empire sending their criminals there)
He also reveals he's from SWORD, which brings Aokiji into exposition
SWORD members are like rogues, they both and are not Navy members, they don't have the red tape and so go after the Yonko but in exchange the Navy would also attack them
However, while the WG wouldn't bargain for a SWORD agent, Blackbeard insists that since Koby is a 'hero' they will be more likely to play ball, and he's kinda right
Koby didn't escape alone either, Perona was there with the clutch, releasing him in exchange for freeing Moria
Marines are here! Aw Koby he's flustered by needing to be saved
A big dude is cleaning house, and when he gets beheaded he just gets back up, a clay fruit maybe?
There's also a whip girl who is commanding buildings to move
Like between Doll and this woman I feel like Oda's suppressing some kinks
Our whip girl is Kujaku, granddaughter of Vice Admiral Tsuru, she has the Whip Whip fruit that makes her a 'Taming human'
Koby is cornered, but the gunfire turns to flowers
That's Vegapunk's creation we saw in the cover story!
Hibari for the save, and the sniper rifle
She has the same stocking/jeans combo as proto-Nami
Ah so big cap Prince Grus has the Clay Clay Fruit, making clay golems as a force
They've been manipulating the terrain to pin down the enemies, it's curious though that Pizarro hasn't jumped into action, since he can feel it all
Tashigi went with SWORD to save Koby, good to see her but shame she won't be in Egghead :/
Here comes Garp though
Did...did the Navy copy the Coup de Burst?
Garp exuding All Might energy, a Galaxy Punch wipes out the whole area with Conqueror's Haki
Oda, my dude, my man, my bro, my lord...we just came back from a break what do you mean break next week????
It's been a big month for Conqueror's Haki at least. Now I am curious though how Garp and Shanks' haki compare, because we've had similar feats of strength back to back.
What's concerning right now though is that Blackbeard's main captains didn't get involved; we've got a lot of marines now faced with Blackbeard's captains, Koby's likely gonna have to free Moria in this to maintain his bargain with Perona too. I am concerned, it's the early flex that makes you feel too comfortable. Still, seeing all of SWORD's skills are cool, I kinda hope Tashigi gets a chance to shine if we remain here but I also do worry for her the most because of prior treatment.
We got confirmation on all the BB fruits now, kinda...we know Lafitte has a fruit we just don't know what exactly it is, I'm curious how they'd match against the Straw Hats too, Pizarro's isn't really one you can easily fight, even though he'd make quite a big target. Blackbeard's plan to be a king is interesting too, I mean he's a Yonko right now is he trying to build a pirate empire like Crocodile and Kaido was with Utopia and New Onigashima? Or is this just another one of his 4D Chess plans?
I am more certain now too that Aokiji is the one who rolled up to Egghead, the only one other than him unaccounted for in present time is Lafitte and Devon and they do seem to come in groups. His explanation of SWORD does show that he knew of it, but we still can't rule out that he's a part of it too.
The break after the last break does sting I must admit, but maybe Oda is cooking something big again, we've got so many moving pieces still and with SWORD vs Fullalead added in it's all gonna have to blend together eventually.
The pieces are there, Oda's just gonna connect the dots on his own time.

I think Rockstar is my favourite background character in One Piece just for the fact there is genuinely so little to know about him yet he’s part of Shanks’ crew
His first ever bounty was 94 mil, that’s higher than Luffy got for toppling Arlong Tower among his other east blue battles, you think he’d do SOMETHING right?
Well no, he delivers a letter to whitebeard, never talks again and only appears is group shots with the others, his latest line was Egghead, 21 years after his debut he finally said something and it’s just alerting Shanks that Kidd is gonna attack.
He has no real personality besides, maybe being quick to anger and prideful of the crew?
When you Google him you’re only gonna see renders from the games or the episode/chapter where he first appears.
His trademark technique is only described in a data book and never once seen, and even then it’s as simple as “slicing an opponent in half” and some crazy attack where he spins himself at high speeds like a drill which we, again, don’t see.
He is the greatest non-character in the whole show, Benn Beckman, Commander Yama and Urouge WISH they could be half the nobody Rockstar is

Zoro vs Shiryu: Two Paths to Worlds Strongest
youtube comment
zoro's facing an opponent who will force his observation haki to bloom, so sanji may force an opponent who causes his adv coc to bloom ( aokiji)
Shiryu disappears into the rain - and you can no longer sense him because every step sounds like a raindrop.
You don't want a diamond sword. They will be way to brittle. Now strengthening steel WITH diamond would be the way to go. The hardness of a diamond and the malleable nature of metal.Show less

RULES
Tumblr media
1. I don't usually accept requests, because I can only write if I have my own inspiration. So, DON'T rush me or keep demanding something from me (please, I lovely kindly ask). But my question box is open for any ideas.
2. Please don't ask me for disgusting themed stories. I do NSFW, but as long as it doesn't involve some gross stuff I don't even need to talk about (I'm not talking about NCS or anything like that, but about really gross stuff).
3. Don't get your hopes up on character x character stories written by me. If there are any, they will be rare exceptions, as I'm generally not a big fan of this type of writing (except in some VERY specific cases). And I can probably only write that kind with Nico Robin.
4. I can't write (which includes mostly NSFW) about these characters: Franky, Brook, Jinbe, Tony Tony Chopper, Trebol, Señor Pink, Buffalo, Shiryu, and countless other characters, most of which in this extensive list include a few minor characters or extras.
5. Definitely NOT (for now): Franky, Brook, Jinbe, Tony Tony Chopper, Trebol, Señor Pink, Buffalo, Shiryu, Machvise, Lucky Roux, etc...
6. I kindly ask you not to ask me for fanfics Frobin (Franky + Robin) or Jinbin (Jinbe + Robin), I just hate those two ships, but I respect your opinion if you like it. Anyway, I will forever be Zorobin (Zoro + Robin) and Lawbin (Law + Robin), and I can write about them with great pleasure.
DO NOT ask me for!
Tumblr media
1. As I already mentioned, stories involving disgusting stuff.
2. Stories involving incest, necrophilia, cannibalism, cruelty to animals, and other terrible things like that. Please don't ask me for this!
3. Stories with racist, bigoted, homophobic, xenophobic themes, these terrible things...
4. OOC characters and stories set in the real world. I just manage to write just for the OP world. Of course, I can open exceptions from time to time, but I don't guarantee anything.
5. Fanfics with male!reader or gn!reader (okay, maybe someday I might try it?! but for now it doesn't work, and it's simply bcs I can't write for that type).
6. Stories for non-binary people (I'm sorry, I'm serious, I just can't write for non-binary people). I swear I already tried it, but it was just awful. So, for now, that's my decision.
7. Character x Character stories (I've only managed one so far, with Nico Robin — and she's just the only one I've felt good doing it with).
8. Fanfics with LGBTQIA+ themes (I'm really sorry, but I can't. Especially those involving characters like Zoro, Law, Doflamingo, Rosinante, Eustass Kid, etc... It just doesn't come out of there). But I can do things like that between women (orange/lesbians).
WHAT CAN I DO?
Tumblr media
1. Yes, I can mix races and write reader with fishmen, minks or something else.
2. NSFW content (I definitely can and want to, once I have good development in the stories of course).
3. I can also do size kink, I just don't make it if that will be with characters like Whitebeard, Kaido, Blackbeard, Bartholomew Kuma and others like them...
WARNINGS
Tumblr media
1. English IS NOT my first language and I'm not fluent in it. Therefore, I write the stories in my native language, and then I translate them with the help of Google Translate. Any spelling errors should be explained by this.
2. My blog is NOT FREE from spoilers, +18 content, dark content and things that might make you feel a little uncomfortable maybe (like angst, NCS, etc...).
3. This blog is focused on One Piece, but I still don't know if I'll gather all my stories from different animes and doramas here, or if I'll create a secondary blog for that.
Tumblr media
Now, I'm going to create a “list” of characters and the appropriate colors inserted will define whether or not I can write about them.
Color Green — I definitely CAN write about this character.
Color Red — I definitely CANNOT write about this character. At least not these days.
Color Orange — Maybe I can and maybe I can't write about this character. And it is very likely that there will be regulations for this.
Color Purple — These are my favorites characters to write about.
Color Pink — Just Fluffy.
Color Blue — I can definitely write about this character. But there will be PROBABLY little or no fluffy/romance and it will likely be +18 Only.
Akainu. Alvida. Aokiji. Arlong. Bartholomew Kuma. Bartolomeo. Bellamy. Boa Hancock. Brook. Buggy. Caesar Clown. Capone Bege. Camie. Carrot. Cavendish. Crocodile. Diamante. Donquixote Doflamingo. Donquixote Rosinante “Corazon”. Dracule Mihawk. Enel. Franky. Hody Jones. Inuarashi. Izo. Jewelry Bonney. Jinbe. Kikunojo. Kizaru. Koala. Marco. Marshall D. Teach “Blackbeard”. Monkey D. Dragon.

Hi! I started following you after developing an obsession over our favorite weirdo, Shiryu. So if you dont mind me asking, do you have any personal headcanons for him?
Ohhh, wow... I'm so flattered that you think I'm qualified to give headcanons, but I'll throw some your way! - For real-world nationalities, I think he would be Japanese and Eastern European/Russian, since he's referred to as Shiryu (Japanese) and Shiliew (couldn't really find much on this name aside from stuff with the suffix -ew, which allegedly has roots in East European countries and Russia... I know Shiliew is the stupid version of Shiryu but let me live. I definitely don't think he's 100% Japanese and couldn't decide). In terms of the OP world I think he's from Wano (like everyone else's headcanon probably). - BLONDE HAIR UNDERNEATH THE HAT! Also shaves pretty much every day and never has stubble. I think he is pretty on top of his hygiene in terms of shaving/body hair... I've never seen someone in the military with a beard so I'm pretty sure he needed to be cleanly shaven (notice how hes cleanly shaven in jail too! Force of habit after he was imprisoned). - I think he likes to sit on his big couch with a glass of whiskey and listening to rock on a record player... white dad style! - Obviously has that lingering smell of tobacco... to a degree you wouldn't even imagine. As soon as he walks in the room it hits you like a ton of bricks. I have a headcanon (with a few others) that he isn't even fully undetectable when he's invisible, since he reeks of tobacco. To a lesser degree ... he smells like leather and always kinda smells a little like sweat (HELP). I don't think he'd use a very strong cologne and if he does its sooo overpowered by the Pungent tobacco... yuck! - (sorry for this one) Has a bit of pudge on him... I mean look at the shape of the guy! He was sitting on his ass on level six for a while without training (and slides my own lore into this headcanon... my oc Freya is a cook at Impel Down and brings him big rare steaks at least once every day while they're both there... feeding him well). Has a big ol' tummy. Love! - Probably really tense from wearing that heavy ass jacket for like... twenty years and is sooo grumpy about it. You already know he just slumps down on the couch after taking off his coat and kicks his legs up with a big harumph. This being said, I like to think he wears nothing but a white beater and those green-ish pants underneath that uniform of his!
^^ Following up with the uniform thing... he definitely doesn't train with that heavy ass jacket and gloves on so his hands are pretty rough and calloused. After the time skip when he starts training extensively again he loses a little weight (boohoo). Can't decide if he takes off the hat when he trains but I don't think he's Shiryu without the hat. Can you picture him training, all out of breath and he reaches for a cigar... dude you're a loser actually - Another shared headcanon with a few of my friends, and one of my favorites... I think he talks to Raiu, to keep it brief. Sees it—or her, in his words—as his companion. The thrill of the chase is a feeling that will never get old... he expresses his gratitude for his beloved katana in its strict up-keeping (which we saw in that little scene with Shiryu and Laffitte)! He loves his sword more than the air he breathes... probably the most (and only) honorable trait the man has as a swordsman. It's something that grants him so much power... Raiu's seen it all! - Again, another shared friend headcanon (shout out... heeyyy... kicks my legs cutely), Laffitte and Shiryu have a rather interesting relationship as Teach's right-hand men. Surely, there's reasons why Teach has Laffitte as his Chief of Staff, and Shiryu's allegedly the strongest (aside from Kuzan probably)... after that scene in Zou, tell me there isn't some sexual tension. What were they doing, what did Burgess interrupt..? Can't get too far into this without having a stroke, but they have the dynamic of an old money couple. Each has the other wrapped around their finger... it just works. ANYWAYS. Hope these will suffice... dms are always open for discussion since I'm really not trying to write about Shiryu dick and balls on the tl LMFAO... happy to see he has fans, though! :-)

The Blackbeard Pirates, if they ever learn what Bonney's true age is... (Spoilers for Chapter 1098)
Blackbeard, who looks like he's having a crisis: ... Burgess: ... Shiryu: ... Augur: ... Pizarro: ... Laffitte: ... Devon: ... Wolf: ... Vasco: ... Doc Q: ... Kuzan: ...You propositioned a 10-year-old. Blackbeard: I didn't KNOW she was 10 at the time! She has an age altering fruit! She was an adult woman when I caught her! If I had known, I NEVER would have said anything! I'm a villain, not a monster! Laffitte: Nobody is blaming you, Commodore. We all thought she was an adult. Augur: I suppose it's a fortunate turn of fate that you left her untouched with the Navy back then rather than just taking her. Devon: Why are you even freaked out over this? You didn't even screw her, and you're a pirate, for god's sake. I'm surprised it even bothers you. Blackbeard: A line has to be drawn somewhere for everyone, Devon. For me, it's pedophilia. Kuzan: (I guess I should be relieved Blackbeard is that much decent...) Vasco: Eh, if Bonney was in her adult form, I'd still do her. Rest of the crew: ... Shiryu: *slowly draws sword*

Chapter 1080: Holding Out for a Hero
Man, the events happening outside of Egghead continue to be fascinating, don’t they? We’re going from one Emperor’s territory last week to another’s this week, as this chapter takes place entirely on Hachinosu.
So, Blackbeard took Coby hostage with the intent of using him to bargain with the World Government to make Hachinosu an actual country with Blackbeard as king. 
Tumblr media
This is an unexpected development. On the surface, it lines up because Blackbeard is quite power hungry, and what could be more powerful than a king? It worked for Doffy for a decade. We also know he wants to be Pirate King, and this would make him king of Pirate Island... a kind of Pirate King, I suppose. My assumption, though, that Blackbeard’s desire here is part of a larger plan, like him becoming a Warlord to get access to Impel Down. The question is what next step this might lead to, though.
Could he be scheming to gain access to Mariejois at the next Reverie? (Yes, I’m aware the next one isn’t for four years; we’re also talking about a guy who stayed with the Whitebeard Pirates for twenty years before making a move.) Let’s not forget the existence of the national treasure that Doffy mentioned needing the Ope Ope no Mi for?
Tumblr media
(And where is Blackbeard currently? Oh, you know, just fighting the owner of the Ope Ope no Mi.)
Anyway, Blackbeard assumes the World Government will go out of their way to rescue their young hero, but Coby tells him that is not going to happen because...
Tumblr media
And, according to Kuzan (who many also believe to be a member of SWORD), the World Government won’t negotiate over a member of SWORD.
Tumblr media
Slight tangent, but this explanation doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. If the members of SWORD have resigned their commissions, doesn’t that mean they’ve literally quit their jobs? How are they still employed by the Marines (e.g., we saw Coby escorting the Dressrosan entourage to the Reverie)? And, if members of SWORD resigned their commissions, then the World Government would be aware of who the members are, which seems counterintuitive for a group that is the direct opposite of CP0/Aegis.
Hopefully we’ll get more clarification here, but the explanation is, well...
Tumblr media
Aaaaaaaaaanyway, Blackbeard plans to try to negotiate anyway because the optics will be terrible if the World Government doesn’t help the hero of Rocky Port.
SPEAKING OF ROCKY PORT. We got another mention. And it turns out Rocky Port was on Hachinosu this whole time?!
Tumblr media
That’s quite surprising for a few reasons. One, it means that apparently civilians live on Hachinosu, not just pirates (as Coby became a hero for helping civilians). Two, it likely means that Law made it all the way to Hachinosu during the timeskip. My boy was just jetting all over the New World while preparing to take down Doffy, wasn’t he?
I need to know what happened at Rocky Port, Oda. I’m begging you. (I wrote some other thoughts about Rocky Port in a separate post here.)
Another wrinkle in this whole thing is that Perona has arrived to rescue Moriah, who apparently is not dead after all. 
Tumblr media
The fact that Blackbeard took Moriah captive rather than killed him seemed to support the idea that he’d take Law hostage rather than kill him if he comes out ahead in their fight.
Another thing we learn in this chapter is which members of the Blackbeard Pirates are present on Hachinosu: Shiryu, Avalo Pizarro, Vasco Shot, and Sanjuan Wolf. (Also, some of their Devil Fruits are wild. Pizarro’s seems like an upgraded version of Pica’s, for instance.)
Meanwhile, Blackbeard, Van Augur, Jesus Burgess, and Doc Q are at Winner Island, facing off against the Heart Pirates.
That leaves Lafitte, Catarina Devon, and Kuzan to be on the ship heading for Egghead.
At the end of the chapter, the cavalry arrives. We meet some more members of SWORD, including Tsuru’s granddaughter. 
Tumblr media
I just wanted to include this page because it’s a really freaking cool angle.
We also see Helmeppo and Tashigi. (No Smoker, though. Where is he, I wonder?)
And then there’s Garp.
Tumblr media
Last chapter we finally got a named attack from Shanks. Now we’re getting one from Garp. And neither disappointed. WOW.
Wow wow wow.
(I hope Coby wasn’t caught up in that explosion, heh.)
Another break so soon is brutal. But these last few chapters have been absolute bangers, damn.

hi there!
I always see you commenting on OP chapters and analyzing them, which makes it a great joy for me to read some without the typical op fans hate.
Anyhow, I would like to ask for your thoughts on Law's current situation and his rule in the future #spoilers
I personally don't think his rule is over yet, Oda went out of his way to declare Law's new goal, which many ppl said after dressrosa he is irrelevant?
besides, Law isn't a rival to Luffy, if anything he's an ally, so there is no point in tossing him out of the story like he did with Kidd - which is a shame and lazy writing honestly - But I don't like to use '' he's a D too'' argument either, because:
a) Ace, b) not every D is essential to the plot.
I can't predict what Oda gonna do with him in the future, maybe join Luffy again ( the fan in me talking) or join Crocodile and the others (stampede foreshadowing ?)cuz law doesn't seem to care who he works with as long as his goals are accomplished.
I just feel like Oda wanted so bad to get rid of his crew and focus on him - and bepo cuz he's cute- it seems like a pattern that Oda is doing every time Law is on screen.
P.S. I'm sick of people saying law gonna die, like, what's the point of him dying, they've been on it for years lol.
I hope this massage isn't too much
thank you !
Tumblr media
Hi Nonny,
Thank you! Wow—that's quite an ask! (I don't mind). My answer will probably not be that long (haha) and obviously I'm not Oda, so everything is speculation. I'm not answering in any particularly order, but
I don't think Kid has been cast aside. He might not be a contender for the One Piece any more, but Oda put a lot of work into his character too, making it one of the main subplots of Wano, and a lot of work into his design, and Kid and Law appeared on two of the volume covers for the Wano arc, so I think he's temporarily disposed, but I think we'll see him again (plus he named all of Kid's crew?). Killer as well, having appeared on that colour spread with the first hand men of major players (Shiryu is there as well; but I do think that King and Katakuri might not be playing roles).
Tumblr media
2. I think the D. should be focused on, actually. All of the Ds, in that, perhaps the Poneglyphs the Hearts carried did survive in their own possession (wishful thinking!), and the crew themselves. I've written elsewhere that I think that Oda gave them a marine animal theme, and named them after marine animals (some of which can dive very deep) for a purpose (I call them National Geographic Hearts). However, this is more a head canon for my creative purposes, and I do cede that Oda separates Law from his crew on the regular, cos' 20 characters plus 10 characters + 1 is far too many for a storyline to maintain cohesion, and it's Luffy's story.
3. Okay, this is a spoiler for my fanfiction, Bioluminescent Hearts: BUT, what if through marine animal shapeshifting devices, ALL Hearts & Law & Bepo end up on Elbaf, which, according to Artur at Library of Ohara, is not too far from Winner Island (I'll put a visual below). The poneglyphs survive, somehow (actually, might have them wrapped in seal skin. Might edit that into my story!) ie: one of the crew always kept them on their body, nearby, etc.
Saul (a D.) recognises Law because he follows the news and Robin's life, and takes in both the Hearts and "returns" the poneglyphs to Law. (Also, probably knew a young Rosinante). From there???
Tumblr media
4. I doubt Oda is gonna take that path. But that's my alternative path. Law will probably hook up with Luffy and I don't mind Kid doing that either. I don't
want Law to do it as an extra Straw Hat though, or as a (relation)ship or as a subordinate to Luffy. Robin and Law will still be able to pursue their wish to seek out true history through their interest in the Void Century, Will of D. etc., and Saul will help fill in the blanks if this path is taken.
I believe the Kid and Heart crews will still play a support role to Luffy, but it will be sketched into the background. I believe that Killer will also have a role (like Bepo). Possibly the next best-known Hearts and Kid pirates might appear. Again, I don't think it will be that detailed.
5. What I started to say above but didn't, is that I think that all Ds are essential to the plot, especially now that we've discovered that Saul is alive, and Ace's death obviously drives the story, as do Law's parents' death, but Law isn't going to die because he's a D or pursuit of knowledge about being a D, etc., or for any other reason imo.
I don't think that Oda would want anything to overshadow Luffy's story at this point of the narrative, and killing Law off would do that. The angst train is strong, though, anon! So let people have their hand-wringing. It can be fun.
Also, I totally understand the deeper tragedy of losing a home/house (and in Japanese, Law refers to his crew as うち uchi , which is a word for home, when they meet the Straw hats on Zou), BUT I feel that Oda will not kill off the Hearts, and even if they're captured, I don't think the focus will strongly be on them (time constraints).
But, it will be cool if the hook up with Koby again in Hachinosu, etc. (there is that sub-story too!), considering the role they must've played in the Rocky Port Incident. Law too.
The Polar Tang was destroyed. And I love her. And I loved the Victoria Punk too, but through writing about the Polar Tang, probably had a deeper attachment to the submarine. However, the Hearts and the Kid Pirates are pirates, and part of the game is plunder, attack, destruction. Law got lucky (or had the skill and resources) with destroying the factories at Punk Hazard (and destroying the island and navy resources), and unlucky this time. He didn't invite the attack, and was up against an emperor and his crew, but Smoker, Caesar, etc. didn't invite the attacks (whether justified or not) on their person, peoples and possessions either. I'm not saying the attacks carry equal moral weight (which, Oda does a very good job of asking us to question), but pointing out the world they all inhabit.
One of Law's hobbies is apparently wandering, and he was the wandering monk in Wano (komusō). I think part of this might be cos he has been seeking a purpose, and that it's also tied to a fear of putting roots down, because they continually get usurped, but maybe it's also just part of his nature.
Tumblr media
I think that he's learnt by now just how resilient he is and that he can come back and also that he won't betray the faith—and recognises the love—that love has had in him (I'm in the minority there, but I think the novel supports me, and various statements Law makes elsehwere).
Tumblr media
Anyway, did I answer anything? Probably not. And absolutely NO shade on the interpretations anyone else has, and I find if I get frustrated with fandom takes I usually just stay clear of that platform, that tag, that topic for a while! Law lives, don't worry. If he dies, I'm wrong, and I'll eat Law's hat once I wrest it from Blackbeard' grip. However, I do also cede the symbolism of him losing his hat. 3rd time is the charm/death knell?
PS: I don't really want him to join up with Croco and the boys, but Oda has a way of endearing me to any premise he's come up with, so basically, I'll wait and see what unfolds. Too, great metas on this topic over at @purplehairedwonder — for chapter 1081, but I also really liked their meta on chapter 1079. @ninhaoma-ya's chapter analyses are great too, and I enjoy @roydeezed 's write-ups. I don't read anything as closely as these guys do!

Coby can't even defend himself against shiryu and wanted to be the one to capture hancock 💀 y'all think coby slander is unwarranted but he's done nothing except be a liability so far. this guy is not the future of the marines. helmeppo is a better candidate than Coby at this point.
also Garp tanking that stab from shiryu is pure badass. y'all gotta trust, you think the one who sparred Roger several times to the point of near death could lose to these guys? we gotta have faith in garp d. fist.

One Piece Chapter 1087 - Initial Thoughts
Tumblr media
And We Are Back!
5 long looooong weeks for Oda to acquire his eye surgery laser vision but now we can resume the Egghead arc well...everything but the Egghead arc it seems
Still we finally get a manga dose of One Piece so let's see what we have
Spoilers for the chapter, support the official release also
An Ace cover page this time, shame we didn't do anything with the laser eyes but Ace and Capybaras make up for it
In the G1 shipyard there are two navy ships whose hulls are dented, apparently known as 'battleship bags' which Garp trains with
Jango and Fullbody are surprised that this is Garp's daily routine, but also that the second ship was Aokiji's!
Also these dents are caused by brute strength, no fruit or haki
Reminder too that Navy ship hulls nowadays are layered with Sea Prism, so I think this is the first instance we've seen of Sea Prism being weathered
I get that this dude has been present in the post TS Navy exposition but where's my man Bogard?
Back to Fullalead and Wolf is already in the drink
I mean Garp just tossed the mega-giant into the water like Thames Water dropping sewage
Vasco's next for the attack with a fireball
That's cold Garp, using the lesser pirates as a shield, but I guess since they're not your allies it's not morally ambiguous
Garp ain't even fazed either
Garp's fighting has managed to get all the slaves and marines back on the ship to escape
Oda my man, why did you bring Tashigi if you're not letting her do anything???
Coby, Helmeppo and Grus are fighting with Garp still, but the plan is to fall back
Aokiji's back and he didn't hear no bell
Garp gives the orders for the trio to leave while he holds ground, but Coby spots a woman in danger and jumps in to help
But Grus senses it's a trap, and he's right
Garp steps in but eats a stab from Shiryu!
Garp says the wound is nothing but Coby's still on the guilt
I wonder how Shiryu is bypassing haki? because Coby is known to have great Observation Haki, even sensing enemies below surface level
Cross Guild were foolish enough to bounty Garp? Seems that Crowns are worth 1 billion berry (how does Buggy, Crocodile or Mihawk have that kinda cash?) and Garp has 3, on par with an Admiral...and his otherwise absent grandson
The redshirts try to swarm Garp but Aokiji tells them they still wouldn't stand a chance
Mini flashback of how Aokiji became Garp's protege, turns out Aokiji insisted him into it
Young Garp definitely looks a lot like Luffy
So Kuzan was like 'I've learned everything the marines told me' but didn't know Haki? I thought all Vice Admirals knew it
Joint training led to Garp just venting at Kuzan about his family
"You have a habit of raising enemies" - well 'raising' is used loosely
Double punches from master and student sends both men flying
Now Pizarro starts gloating, taking aim at the escape ship
Pizarro's fruit does just feel like an advanced form of Pica's fruit
Pizarro being annoyed with Blackbeard being on the news is interesting, wonder if there's like a slight bit of dissent among the crew
Hibari, much like Coby, is annoyed that she couldn't help, but gets some reassurance from Kujaku
Garp is hopeful justice will prevail though, as we're left on a cliffhanger
It's good to be back
This chapter could've been a lot more action packed I feel, but I'm happy with what we got. Glad Aokiji showed more fight too, because making him look strong works for both Blackbeard and Akainu as well. Also kinda glad that the other Blackbeard members got involved, seemed weird that they would just spectate.
This is a point where Oda could easily move on to another plot section though, which I hope doesn't happen. But I'd also like Tashigi to do something impressive and if she can do something similar to Zoro's feat against Pica to save the ship that'd do pretty nicely. Realistically thinking there may be some navy backup, but we also can't rule out Perona and Moria getting involved, since Coby only escaped because Perona gave him the keys.
It's been 5 weeks but Oda has us leaned back in
