User blog:Uraharattack/Who's Backing Whom?

Okay everybody, this is a breakdown of our key players currently on the board and who they're affiliated with. The story has always been a "game of chess" between multiple sides. At first it was simply pirates vs marines. Then it bcame a 3 sided chess game with the Shichibukai. Adding more and more elements, the world government, the revolutionaries, the people of the world (various islands), alliances and so forth.

Last: Analysis
So the way I cut it, that's 7 independant sides, each with their own goals and ambitions.

The world of one piece is currently a 7 sided chess board.

I personally don't thing the kid alliance, Big mom, and kaido will be lasting enemies.

I think the final conflict will be our heroes versus either blackbeard or the world government. Possibly a simultaneous two front battle of the revolutionaries vs the world gov, while luffy and blackbeard duke it out elsewhere.
