One Piece (Anime)

I have quite a bit of a collection but im not sure if any are worth anything if someone knows about values of these cards please let me know thank you.

Hear me out, we Know that Kizaru can move at the speed of light but i don't think that is the case in the Manga/anime. You may now the thing that if a needle would fly atblightspeed down tot earth it would ben like star bomba. But then how does kizarus kicks don't do nearly dat amount of damage. Share your thoughts PLS cause i could just be wrong

I'm writting an One Piece-based fanfiction which is basically an Alternative Universe. I won't post it here as this would go against the guidelines, but I'd like to make posts that would help me on the plot such as "What If" posts, for example. The story includes movies and filler arcs as canon arcs, changing characters' powers, etc.

I read the guidelines and they say that fanfiction isn't allowed, but I won't post the fanfiction itself. It'd help me a lot to have different opinions about the events of my story.

We all know he married Shakky the former empress, but I had so many question probably from newer fans on youtube channel by people asking why rayleigh treat her like a daughter and made boa trust him so much to lean on him rather than her sister or granny nyon (gloriosa)

He does save her live but actually it goes deeper than that way back in the past.

On the SBS Oda has given states they has live together for some time

They were kidnapped when they still 12 yo then spending torturous 4 years in marijoa before fisher tiger help free them, She and her sister should be around 16 on the time where they meet rayleigh who hide them in their house while the world government actively search for runaway slaves.

Assuming they already learned basic armament haki before kidnapped,

he might be also give her training regarding haki if he realizes she had conqueror haki potential thus no wonder she can use 3 form of haki make sense if she indeed learned from both of them.

Especially since shakky is the former empress finding kuja girls that been through so much maybe she felt a little guilt too and want them to become stronger.

At the time she and gloriosa both left amazon lily to be with their preffered lover to avoid love sickness maybe the fact that she doesnt has children also plays crucial role since we seen her interaction with strawhat crew in her bar she somewhat has caring nature to chopper even nice to brook.

Probably paralel to luffy they live and train there for 2 years, since it states she was officially become empress and warlord when she just 18 yo and has reign as empress and warlord for around 10-13 years.

At the time they must contact the current empress tritoma to help let them go back to amazon lily but finding out she encounter love sickness and by seeing potential with boa and her devil fruit power they decided to raise her as the successor since the title not hereditary by blood but rather passed down the strongest warrior, being saved by two former empress gloriossa and shakky probably given her advantage since she has her predeccesor approval, thus tritoma aware of her illness pardon gloriosa to come back and live in amazon lily to continue mentoring and teach her the kuja custom

Thats why they not sent them in hurry to amazon lily since they need to prepare her first before able to properly claim the title by her own power

Thats why despite being so disrespectfull to him by pinching his nose and threaten to turned him to stone he does nothing to let go from her or respond normally when someone do that to you. Rather he just calmly explain and patiently let her calmed down by herself.

If you think about it she hates men eventhough she has respect for rayleigh

You didnt pinch someone nose if you dont close with them. In fact when she first met him again when he comes to amazon lily for luffy she greets him happily and quite nice eventhough she distracted with luffy and late noticing his presence

Also many people has missed this but it is Shakky women instinct that predict that Hancock fell for luffy and help him to got to impel down despite rayleigh pretty sure of her hatred towards men and government she will not do that, both knowing her personality well eventhough at the time we dont know their relationship with boa

Despite knowing she is strong and independent as pirates he still worried,

Thus as soon as he knows the warlord system abolished he swim back to amazon lily accompanied with shakky this time,

eventhough she doesnt has any responsibility anymore to protect amazon lily and despite letting rayleigh face off countless danger by himself over the years

He has pretty chill enterance when confronting Blackbeard some video maybe cutted but boa called his name in weakened voice and next scene is where he unleash his haki shown more furious and said he doesnt like him despite the two never had personal dispute before, maybe his protective instinct take over

Especially if he feel a little bit bad about not knowing or try saving Ace, he probably cannot sit still to lose them anymore, despite knowing he cant win due to his age

Some fans speculate he is indeed her father but that highly unlikely since they have different surname 'Boa' and 'Silver', plus they probably wreck sabaody and raze marijoa if their own daughters kidnapped, Furthermore there suspicion of boa sisters are fathered by different men due to the difference looks and body eversince they are children where sandersonia is fitting to be descendant of buccaner or giant with bigger body proportion and face structure compared to her sister, but hey if oda officially confirm it in the future I wont have complain.

Fans have such fun theory thought that mihawk is their real son due to his mastery of sword armament haki and his similar hairstyle to shakky thus can explain his monstrous power if he were to have those two as parents

However beside him and boa many illustrator agree marguerite will be likely fit those criteria as she has the same hair color as young rayleigh and similar base character design also pretty much the strong candidate if boa were to abdicate her title, but again not official

Well despite haki now more well known by audience and reader it doesnt change the fact that he'll not draw the kuja the same as other character when using armament haki (their body parts or weapon wont change colors) for aesthetic purpose though he can joke that they had high mastery of haki that they able to conceal it like normal, I probably can see him change his mind though if he want to create an epic battle

The most funny use of these are the use of haki on their feet so they can run and jump using heels without causing any discomfort or pain, those heels are probably millitary grade material lol, and the reason why mostly her combat style are using martial arts that focused on the leg are because fundamentally women leg are stronger than their hands which you can find it easily a fact you can notice if you like to go to the gym and try the equipment for leg excercise after a women

When while after marineford arc when luffy is gravely injured despite the urgency amazon lily custom still prohibit men entering the island when law need to take care of him despite boa as empress given special approval, but granny nyon never made such remarks for rayleigh and luffy, she never states that they are not allowed there by the law,

rayleigh maybe suspected to have gain those privilege because he save amazon lily and their empress life,

but luffy hasnt help save amazon lily eventhough he gained such respect so the only thing that make sense maybe the law has a special exception for the partner chosen by the empress to enter the island without objection thats why its natural for them to expect his return despite having strict rules, well their empress can died if they cannot cure their love sickness probably they had to make such exception make sense for whoever their empress fall in love with

People assume he also the one who teach shanks haki thats quite possible considering the timing, but I cannot not notice how he babysit her compared to the boys he teach, basically thrown them to danger to fend of for themselves to get stronger maybe because he doesnt want to trigger her past trauma by being harsh on her as a men,

Thats also make sense if she turned out weaker than his other student since he didnt force her training as harsh as the others

They probably bickering to each other and she won't admit it but they are the only one she always can depend to for comfort and he'll always save her everytime she's in danger,

Oda really create solid background for the plot and make him figuratively father figure. Afterall he loves figurative parents more than the biological one if you think Dadan and Whitebeard will done the best for their sons, while Dragon, Yassop and Roger leave them alone for many years

Contemplating who to draw him since he's so popular,

I consider to draw Nami but drawing her madly in love with luffy instead of mad at him feel a little bit weird, so I decide it with Boa in the end,

Eventhough their obvious age differences,

But lets forgive her Its one piece universe afterall,

And if I think about her backstory to understand how a 31 yo can fell so hard to a 19 yo,

she spend most of her teen life in slavery,

the rest in the run from world government and physical training,

living in a world of free piracy most of the man probably act similar to a criminal, luffy is probably the first green flag she ever encounter,

so she behaves like a school girl in love, but wont we all hopeless

and stupid on our first love?

I wont complain to a women that not hestitate to dive in front of pacifista for you luffy

It seems Oda enjoy creating female character with tragic backstory,

Well I do consider tashigi too but it'll be a lot of inconvenience for a marine to be with yonko crew I think unless she retire of course,

I draw hiyori as his partner because I think wano will be much better place for zoro in his retirement to open up Dojo or something

On the other hand the reason why hiyori become interested in him is not only because he save her, but because he is a very powerful swordsman,

You see samurai are held in incredibly high regard. The culture of Wano is deeply tied to the honor and traditions of the samurai, who are seen as the protectors and upholders of justice, loyalty, and strength.

Samurai are revered as the noblest warriors, embodying honor, loyalty, and duty. They are expected to protect the people, maintain order, and serve their leaders faithfully. So she might grow up to look up for one as her partner.

After the absence of her father and brother for many years,

Suddenly a powerful swordsman like Zoro arrives, saving her and fighting against her father killer and help freed her country

If we are in her position wont that'll be hard to not to

A complex one for sure,

I do consider Viola but I think she hasn't had that much interest in him so I go with Pudding Instead,

Considering they have the same hobby and in his retirement he probably gonna open a restaurant somewhere,

I think we pretty much hate her at the start,

She was very mean at him while sanji is always act like sanji,

But once again Oda and his tragic backstory,

Her falling in love with him was rather unexpected,

But the potrayal of them from faking -> enemies -> love, Is a nice storyline

It didn't remove the fact that she tried to kill him before though,

And as a character she aware of this fact and decided to remove some part of his memory so he'll not have attachment for her,

Eventhough currently she has feeling for him but she can't forgive herself that has done that to him and decide she's not good enough to be with him,

It hard to do that decision eventhough you love someone,

And pretty much she's the only girl I know fell for sanji

So who is your favourite couple?

Inspired by Oda Nakama Drawing

Love Hate Relationship

Bonus

Considering it still a long way to April so decided to spend time to create some artwork for fun,

I just wonder what if the great admirals position will be held by favourites character instead,

Boa : Red Boa (well obviously)

Nami : Orange Cat (as original)

Robin : Blue Falcon (I had hard time to decide her representative animal)

Luffy : Red Monkey (Obvious and its his color signature)

Ace : Orange Salamander (I didn't want him to overlaps with Dragon name)

Sabo : Blue Phoenix (he is turned out to be alive & symbolism ace's power reincarnated)

Luffy : Red Monkey (Obvious and its his color signature)

Zoro : Green Tiger (I consider dragon too but it fits the others more)

Sanji : Black Ram (It's animal strong with it's leg)

After always indecesive on favorite character, I was into her lately but never had her action figure before

The problem is I want the one that display her power but most of her model are not really family appropriate

But finally check out these action figure by Raven Studio !!

My prayer was heard finally find a model that looks awesome but still modest,

Detail wise expression nailed it too, she seems annoyed

This is 60cm version resin base equipped with arrow, I hope they recrate this in the anime

10/10 recomended

It just hypothesis and it not based on any official statement so I think its not considered as spoilers, but It might sounds like this

Luffy:

"My dream is to open (unite) the sea so people can go wherever they want to go, become anything they want to be... once i'm a pirate king I'll have the biggest banquet ever held, everyone can be friends no matter where you came from, nobody will be left out, I'll beat up anyone that make anyone sad, we'll have each others back and we'll having so much fun with everyone, eat delicious food every night, sing as long as we want, I want to have more friends, more fun, more adventure, more dreams, I want everyone to be free to do whatever thing they want and get along well and that's all the end of my dream"

Nami: "there's no way"

Luffy: "No I'll be a pirate king and make sure of it, It'll be fun"

Is there anyone who has different guess?

As request the next character I'll upgrade is Perona

I know many will deem Yami Yami No Mi suitable for her logia base but in order to fill out her lack of destructives offense power I rather give her Susu Susu No Mi owned by Karasu

Her usual ghost minion are usefull but she will manifest more potential as it very convenience that she can immobilize her minion farther away from her

Plus soot falling from the sky slowly is a bad omen usually remind you of catasthropes like volcanic eruption or the historical Black Dread

Beside that her Destruction power will also increased

In other hand yami yami power most potent power come from direct touch of the user to the target or enviroinment, which as her personality I think she will be much cooler to annihilate enemies while seating calmly with her ghost,

As her zoan fruit I think Batto Batto No Mi Vampire will suit her well, It'll be a match team with mihawk and has the ability to take life force to stay young and I think she'll be like that skill

Originally I intend to give her sword that she could hide in her umbrella,

But then I was thinking cursed shadow whip seems has much more potential to be combined with her devil fruit power, she can expand the length or generate more branches with her devil fruit power indefinitely and allow her fast reaction combat with single stroke,

Paramecia : Horo Horo No Mi

Zoan : Batto Batto No Mi Vampire

Logia : Susu Susu No Mi

Weapon : Cursed Shadow Whip

Okay here we go to another favourite character

At first I contemplate whether or not to give her Magu Magu No Mi of Akainu since it'll be deadly combination with her Hana Hana No Mi, Toge Toge No Mi by Miss Zala of One Piece (Alabasta Arc) or Baby 5 Devil Fruit,

But I remember her nickname the demon child and her demon form while fighting Black Maria in Wano so I deem rather than those, Blackbeard Yami Yami No Mi will be more suited for her image

It can be deadly and not at the same time which more suited as well with her personality,

It also can give her discreet movement and imagine how easy it was to create massive power nullifying many enemies at once since you need to physically touch the target and her original devil fruit can perfectly enhance each other power,

Zoan, there's not much zoan I could imagine her with I guess Tori Tori No Mi Phoenix by Marco

Since her Hana Hana No Mi weakness is her original body is vulnerable to attack while using her devil fruit so in phoenix form she could pharse attack easily plus get healing ability for nakama

For Weapon I will say gun, it seems she fond of them when she's in revolutionary army

But I'll not give her normal gun that will be lame and near useless for devil fruit user, instead Vegapunk Bubble Gun most potent to negate devil fruit user, She name it Devil Popper

Paramecia : Hana Hana No Mi

Logia : Yami Yami No Mi

Zoan : Tori Tori No Mi Phoenix

Weapon : Vegapunk Bubble Gun

Okay whose character shall I do next?

Okay it seems female character are really popular to have character upgrade now let's talk about our favourite female heroine

Let's start with her current weapon Clima-Tact, I think is already perfect for her rather than suggesting a new one and it even become stonger as ego weapon when zeus incorporated in it so I wont touch that

Paramecia, I will give her Goru Goru No Mi or Gold Gold Fruit obviously and yes its considered paramecia not logia,

Not only power boost up bet she will absolutely loves it, It easier for her to steal treasure that she loves so much or even make her own gold,

For Zoan since we dont have Cat Cat Fruit that suit her (Robb Lucci DF is not suited for her image), I will suggest to give her Inu Inu No Mi Kitsune by Catarina Devon since it'll give her abillity to disguise herself in many situation and avoid direct fight as much as possible as she tends to fight using her wits and strategy also it suit with her hair color too,

Lastly for Logia since she already can use thunder base and wind base attack with her clima-tact it'll be just a little bit boring if her devil fruit will also be one,

So instead I opt for more variation which is Monet Yuki Yuki No Mi

Not only she'll have new element to control but she also can use it for flight, escaping shackles, capture enemies alive and still suited for weather theme attack and many combo move with her clima-tact

Paramecia : Goru Goru No Mi (Gold duh)

Zoan : Inu Inu No Mi : Kyuubi No Kitsune (Disguise Skill)

Logia : Yuki Yuki No Mi (Weather base and Versatile)

Weapon : Clima-Tact (Just Perfect)

Okay whose gonna be on part 3?
