Hey, what's going on everyone at Santa Mac Here from anime outproer and welcome
to a brand new episode of The One Piece Virgin. We're back, baby,
discussing chapters one thousand and thirty to one thousand and thirty four, the
latest five chapters as of the making of this podcast. Joining me, we
have Briggs, Yo. What a boy's always good to be here, excited
to talk some one piece yo, and not joining us today as Knucks because
he betrayed the knucoma. He did, he had some other stuff. He
had some other stuff to do, And honestly, I've given the Going Mary
a lot of shit, but the Going Mary away better knock come on than
knucks. Sorry to a story for sure. All right, I'm looking Although
souls did go down in flames, but that's another topic. Briggs, go
ahead, Oh my god, goddamn. Okay, So starting off, I
need you to tell me, like the first seeing of like chapter one thousand
and thirty, or the second or second page whatever, a third page you
see a bunch of giants in a room with X Drake and what's the sound
guy with the lanky arms, do you guys hear? Men? Yeah,
I can know oh, I thought I meaned it again, I can I
can hear you what a pooh a pooh? Yeah, yeah that's his name.
Are they are they giants that work for Kaido that have also eaten the
smile. So I didn't know if they were giants or just really tall people
because you know how, but it did seem to me like a poo and
kind of these men that were loyal to him were just kind of waiting to
see how things turn out before making a move. Yeah, it looked like,
yeah, they're they're waiting for as as us apex gamers would say,
they're waiting for the third party. They're like, let's let Loofy and everyone
else that's fighting Kaido fight. Regardless of who wins, it doesn't matter.
The person left standing in the end will probably may be one shot, Like
we'll be on the verge of death we as we've seen with Lufy, like
when he fought Do Flamingo. Even once he won, he was just like
pretty much unconscious laying there, right, So they're gonna try to third party
yet Yeah, and then um Drake is kind of there. He comes across
him and I pooh invites Drake to join them. He's like, yo,
man, let's just all just wait to see how things turn out and then
pick the winning side or you know, take them all out, whatever the
situation is. But Drake isn't really down for it because obviously we know Drake
has another agenda exactly exactly um, which I was interesting to because I had
the impression that a Pooh was loyal to Kaido, but clearly that is not
the case. I don't think any of them really are. They're just like
Kaydo was just too strong for them to take on, so they kind of
ended up joining them. Yeah, I mean it happened with Hawkins and a
Pooh here x Rake has his little I'm a marine, I'm undercover type of
thing right going on, and Kid was the only one who really didn't completely
oh Kid and Lucy obviously like refused to join him. Yeah, And I
kind of had the impression that a Pooh and Hawkins were loyal out of convenience
but still loyal, But clearly a Pooh has literally no loyalty in this situation.
He's just like, you know, I'm just an opportunist. I'm waiting
for, you know, to do whatever is most advantageous to me they joined
the winning side or try to take out the winning side in the end type
of thing. Um, I wonder if Hawkins still I think Hawkins is currently
the only one who's still on Kaido side, although he got wrecked out of
the out of the supernovas, he gotten wrecked by Killer. Okay, yeah,
so he's out of the game, true, all right, So then
we move on and we see the Keenomon's running on, running around with him
on alive by dude, the greatest character of all time in one Piece,
as I'm sure Knox would say if he was here. Unfortunately is non but
we can speak for him when we say that Keenomon is the best character at
least in this post time skip world the one Piece, and I mean he's
alive, and we all rejoiced. We all rejoiced at this, yep exactly,
and came in with a funny ha ha, I'm half a body like
type of meme, you know, as the usual as you know, the
kind of top tier stuff the Knocks really appreciates. So is it confirmed that
Kiku was the one who saved them? No? No, what do you
mean? Kiku also injured the other girl? You mean Hiori Kiori. Yes,
Hiori does show up at some point to to distract Orochi, but I
don't even know if that's supposed to be the real Hiori. Well Sea,
we haven't seen the resolution of that scene. We saw Orochi coming across Hyoi
in her persona of the gay show. I forget the name um out of
nowhere on the island, which we didn't think she was on the island,
So that is significant. But we'll have to wait and see what exactly is
happening there, whether it really is he Odi, and whether she was the
one who rescued everybody or something else going on. That's how it seems right
now. But I just don't want to make any predictions because I still think
Toky's involved. Oh that's right, that your your prediction originally with Toky,
right, yeah, which is Odin's wife. I'm really bad with names here.
Yeah, okay, we got it. But that's okay, that's okay.
Maybe if they were like less Japanese names, maybe if they're just memorable
character the aw bro come on, yeah, I agree, okay, um,
Yeah, so here apparently is there. We'll see what happens without scene
because she was kind of luring him into a false sense of security, So
clearly she has a plan possibly to kill him somehow, although he has that
devil food, so that will be hard. We'll see what happens there.
The other thing I want to talk about is, yeah, let's talk about
kem On how he survived, because he says he survived being basically cut through
the torso because when Law put him back together after using his devil food on
him, he didn't quite put him back together all the way. So he's
able to survive even when he's been when he's been cut. But isn't that
super super broken because couldn't then Law do that to all of his allies during
the battle, and like Law wasn't even there, right, Like it would
be okay, would be one thing if he was there to like make it
a thing. Yeah, yeah, So so he's basically he can do it
once and then it seems to have like a lasting impact for I don't know
how long, maybe not forever, but clearly for a long period of time
because and he first cut keenem On in Punk Hazard, right, does that
mean he's immune to being cut in half anywhere or with it just that specific
spot, or he just got lucky RNGG or made it so that he got
hit there la not putting that also kill him on the assumption, So there
might be a different real explanation. Yeah, so people are saying that Chad
Sanji put him back together, not Law, but the point stands, Like
what I'm saying is if it was cut up by Law, if Locke and
just cut up all of his allies in a way that they you know,
they don't die because it was dull fruit, and then someone puts them together,
then essentially they should be bulletproof. Right. Oh that's interesting though.
So that's what Chad's kind of saying is that because Law never combined him properly,
however, he was haphazardly put together, he's just been kind of like
using his body without being put together properly. Like he's still like even when
he's separate, like he's able to run with his legs and talk with his
mouth and like do stuff with his hands, even completely cut up. So
when like the way he was like because he's not putting it put together,
Oh my god, I can't speak, because he even put together by Law
in those places, like he could still kind of take himself apart. Yes,
that's that's the implication of how he has he has buggies for permanently,
got it. Yeah, so that's what I'm saying. Why not everyone?
Why not just do that to all of your allies? If you can just
do that permanently or well, you think it would affect your movement, well,
not that I've seen. I don't think he complained when he was together.
I don't think he complained about movement issues. So yeah, that seems
kind of broken because and it also begs the question, if he can do
that for a long period of time, why not do it to a bunch
of people before the battle and it makes them essentially like maybe not immortal,
but much he's much harder to kill. I play this as an Oda's best
work for like how he survived. No, we'll see how it all turns
out in the end. It makes sense for him to survive still because,
like I said before in previous episodes, he still hasn't seen his wife,
so it's almost like, you know, there's unfinished business that Keene one has.
He might still by the end of it, but there's unfinished business.
However, I do think that if the Law thing isn't explained better, it
seems silly that you know, if he has such an OLDPI power, why
not just use it on all your main allies so that I feel like he
didn't have to explain that he maybe kin him on knew of this that he
could detach his body the whole time in that specific spot, and it's only
in those spots. So like he like made the attack hit him there like
on purpose type of thing that he'd survive. That's the only way is he
being not completely broken, because if you get continue to split up, then
like all these swordsmen are useless on it against him. Yeah exactly, And
again like why only ki him and why not do that treatment to everyone and
then just put him back together properly after the battle? Right? Maybe Law
doesn't know about this. I would assume he would, like think about it,
kid, I'm always put together by Sadin. He's just been like still
I wonder, I'm very curious. Yeah, we'll see. Speaking of people
not being dead, our boy Conjuro Nux, his other favorite character, Conjuro
is still alive, although apparently he is dying and so Odochi orders him to
create like one final act one Blaze of Glory, which is some sort of
massive monster made of fire, which he creates with his drawing magic. Thinking,
right, and so he Rochi wants that fire monster to ignite the massive
armory beneath the island and just destroy everything, all of Onegashima because he doesn't
at this point, he doesn't even care about the pirate battle. He just
wants to escape while they will kill each other, and then Orochi can just
continue being the shogun. Right, Why are we talking about Keenomon and Conjuro
and not Zoro and Sanji because we're trying to stay chronological and go through this
properly. But yeah, there's there's that whole armory with all these weapons at
the bottom of the island that's floating, right, So if it were to
crash down, it would crosse even more casualties than because it would cause all
these explosions and it would kill every one on the island presumably of well yes,
so not just the people that are hit by the rubble, but also
like it's just gonna be like a nuke, yeah, exactly. So then
Yamato uses her full wolf form to try to get to the armory first and
stop stop it from igniting. And so that's the kind of you know,
big time crunch that's happening right now when you got your must falling towards the
capitol, plus the armory might ignite. Plus there's a whole bunch of battles
going on, one of which is of course Law and Kid fighting big moo.
Yes, yo, Law and Kid have they always had their powers awakened
or they did? They just unlock that now, do we know? It
seems like they kind of just got it now, but they don't, like
like Law still learning about his and stuff. Yeah, there was a lot
of talk about them awakening their devil fruits, but I feel like we haven't
seen them fight that much to really know their full potential yet. It seems
really cool. I need I need to fall. So basically, kids,
it seems like he's able. Before he was able to control like whatever metal
objects and stuff, and now he's able to give them a magnetic pole,
whether they're positive or negative. It seems like now he could control these things.
So he had all these metal bars ball and attract to big Mom.
Yeah, so like the panels start falling, and I mean when you Gosham
was a freaking mess at this point, bro, because it's falling to the
ground, it's about to blow up. Beams are falling everywhere, and the
attack that they create together using the magnetic stuff and the pop fruit, it's
so severe that they essentially people think Big Mom has to be dead, Like
they crash everything on top of Big Mom and people are yo, Big Mom
an emperor must have died during this attack. That's ridiculous because like when when
we were at a Whole Cake, it was kind of proven that she was
like kind of impervious to like getting like like attacks did nothing to her,
right, She's just like I can't see how like obviously maybe in the anime,
but like watching it, like reading it in the manga, it's like,
Okay, a bunch of steelbeams fell on her, Come on, how
is that going to kill her? Which literally it did do a lot of
damage. They're trying to emphasize that this was like a really old pie attack.
I think that's when they're saying it was on a big skill. We
understand laws ability and how that works, like how the Awakening. No one
understands laws ability, including law I think, m yeah, chat, let
me know what you think about laws new awakening because I understand kids more or
less. Maybe I didn't describe it perfectly, but I do understand kids.
I don't really remember what Law did. One thing Laws said that was interesting,
he says, after big Mom isn't killed. I think this happened.
Yeah, So what happened was she manages to recover after that attack by draining
a bunch of her life life force from others and also sacrificing a year of
her own life. So the implication here is this was a really huge injury,
a really huge attack, and in order to recover, she had to
drain a bunch of life force from other people, and she also had to
sacrifice a year of her life span, kind of like, you know,
she got me eyes in death note, you got to sacrifice some of your
life span in order to you know, survive. That was that was kind
of cool. So she took off one year of her life and she grew
even larger and is now in this like it shows that she's taking kid in
law seriously and she's literally said, come at me, try to become the
next emperor. Yeah. Yeah, so definitely that she seems to be going
all out now as an emperor, which you know, for kid in Law
that is a huge deal because it is two of them, but being able
to put shan emperor as far is massive. And it's one interesting thing that
I saw Law say. He says he can't believe he has to defeat this
monster, referring to Big Mom just to learn more about history. Did you
see that? Yeah, so that's his drive what he wants as well now
going forward? Yeah, because I found that very very interesting that he is
interested in history, because we all are, obviously we're all interested. I
can't believe I have to read a thousand and thirty one chapter is to learn
a little more about history. You can't believe you have to read this monster
just to learn more about history, bro. But yeah, that was interesting
because parallels kind of Robin's whole role and how that plays into the story.
And I've just been doing some research on a video I was doing that I'm
planning to do on one piece with Teching. So I was looking at the
history and a bunch of videos about the history, and there really is some
interesting stuff there. So I do wonder what Law's full sort of goal is
what he hopes to find out from history and how that will affect what happens.
Well, I had a long yawn. Sorry brother, Yeah, I
completely agree. Anyway, this chat's been talking about Law and kitabilities. I
do understand that the beams didn't just fall on Big Mom. They were pulled
towards her with large amounts of force. So I think in the anime we're
going to see how quickly this happens and how much she gets flattened in the
amount of like debris that's shot up and all that. And I believe Law's
ability makes it to that they're able to do damage to her internally, which
would make the biggest difference because maybe externally they're not able to like hurt her
because she's the fucking tank, but internally they could actually with his fruit,
like whatever damage he takes is happening internally or something like that. Yeah,
So it was basically the idea is that them too awaken their powers further and
worked as a perfect team to deal on extremely painful blow to Big Mom,
a blow which did not defeat her, but which definitely kind of forced her
to go all out, is what I'm gathering. Yeah, dude, Big
Mom looks scary right now. I mean She's always been probably the scariest villain
for me, just because she's such a you know, monster, and now
yeah, it's just going even harder on that, I mean character designed.
Like right now, she looks scarier than Kaido, and I think I think
she's always been scarier than Kaido to me, just her personality and everything.
She's always been like this unstoppable, unreasoning forth yeah, force of nature,
Like she just doesn't reason. She's just you know, the machine of disaster.
Yeah. Um. There was one scene where Yamato breaks through a Pooh
and Drake on her way to the armory and they're just like, and I
think a Poo's like, Yo, Yamato join us. Was like, I'm
busy, bront I don't really, I don't really have to time for this
shit. And I thought that was kind of funny. It was, Yeah,
it was. It was a little interesting encounter because they didn't know who's
on whose side, so they're like talking about fighting. It's like, but
no, I'm not part of I'm out with Kaido anymore. And then if
who's like joined me come back to Kaid like, I don't know. It
was cool anyway, when you talk about my boy our boy. Uh.
We started things off with him afraid that he might have blacked out and hurt
a woman. Yeah, really questioning or like whatever, it goes against his
morals, right, Like, that's the one thing he would never do,
whether or not he becomes like he all, he does not want to associate
with it, be associated with his family, doesn't want to become like them.
But the furthest extent, he doesn't want to like break his morals and
like hit a woman, right, ell is one thing he would never do
before. So he feels like he's changing as he's going through this transformation,
and I guess while like towards the end of the transformation, he it seems
like he fucking kicked the woman. Yeah. And so what he is now
saying is that he thinks that Germa suit activated the science that was latent inside
of him, because he was believed to have been a failure in terms of
how the experiments affected his body. But now it seems that some sort of
power is awakening within him, and he thinks he might be related to the
germas suit activating something within like a reaction is happening in his body. And
so he's afraid that he's going to turn into his siblings, Like that is
a big lose his emotion and everything that makes him him, you know,
yeah, exactly. He's afraid he's gonna get stronger potentially, but become as
emotionless and ruthless and cruel as his brothers. So he ends up destroying the
suit and decides he decides to fight against Queen as his real self. So
he had the option of I'm going to put the suit on and you know,
potentially get stronger, but potentially lose my personality who I am, you
know, for the greater good of protecting my captain all that type of stuff.
But it was such a it was such a cool thing though, because
he poses it in a way. He's like, tell me, Lufy,
which would you prefer? Right, And he says, like, should I
become this monster? This like this beast that would be like would that be
more useful to the King of the Pirates And then like, because he's asking
Lufy and obviously Lufy's not there to respond, he knows that Lufy would want
him to stay the person he is, like the good natured person he is,
and then he steps on the suit, which was great. Yeah,
So he destroys the suit and satisfied against Queen as the real Sangi, but
then his body seems to catch on fire. Yeah, and he's still undergoing
this transformation or her he went through some type of transformation. He's definitely his
body. Whether he's because I think he even said it's because of the Rage
suit pretty much, he's a late bloomer and they activated the genetics inside of
him and he's transforming. He's becoming like he was able to take these hits,
you know, like I'm I'm really struggling to describe this, but his
body is way more resilient now as Yeah, and it seems that the challenge
will be, you know, accepting this new power, this latent power,
without changing his personality. And that's his biggest fear is that he's going to
lose who he is while he gets more powerful. And how cool was it
when he was on the Den Den Mushi with Zoro and he's like, if
I'm like, if I change, kill me, Yeah, I'm not.
If I if I'm actin crazy after this fight or after this is all over,
kill me, yeah, Like he really it's funny because Sanjie really has
these strong moral principles about how he should be and who he should be,
and yeah, he's willing to. It's like, if I turn into everything
I hate, like my brothers, I'd rather die than live a life like
that. Like that's pretty deep, man. Sanji's like a principled, moral,
virtuous person. M yeah, he says, but after this finish is
if I'm not in my right mind, I want you to kill me like
it's it's and then he has the thing Okay, then he's like, well,
hell, yeah, I have something to look forward to for after this
battle. Don't die before then. Yeah, And this was kind of like
the Sandy catching on fire, I think if I recall correctly, I don't
have the chapters pulled up, but I could recall if I recall correctly,
that was like the cliffhanger ending to one of the chapters. I think it
was one thirty one. Yeah. And then in the next chapter, speaking
of people catching on fire, we found out we find out that King has
a power that is unrelated to his devil fruit, his devil fruit being on
ancient zone, and that fire makes his back burn with flames. But yeah,
Zoro right now is trying to uncover, like try to understand what the
hell this guy is, Like he's some different race with some ancient devil fruit.
Yeah, so we know he's a lunarian, right, so Zoro is
speculating at this point. You know, he must be a member of one
another race. He's not human, he's not fishman, he's not a giant,
but he has to be something else. And later does it reveal that
he is a lunarian, which is something else. We'll talk about that in
a bit, but before he jump back into the Zoro in King Fire,
I do want to say, like with with the Sandry fighting, I don't
know if this has happened yet chronologically. I thought it was really really cool
that like he almost looked like he went invisible for a second later on Oh
yeah, okay, but I can't say it anyway. In reality, he
was just moving super super super fast. I think that's really interesting because it
shows that like he's trying to achieve what like whatever the raid suit, Like
he pretty he destroyed the raid suit. He's not using it, but he's
gonna achieve it with his own abilities, even though his body is technically changing.
Yeah, and that's that's the thing. These fights are happening at the
same time, and we jump back and forth, so it's hard to go
everything chronologically. But and there's a bunch of fights going on at the same
time. But um, yeah, it's funny. So in chapter oney thirty
something on One Piece, we have hours that were like episode two of Dragon
Ball. Yeah yeah, but you know you're going so fast you can't see
him, but yeah, it is. It is. I thought it was
cool because, like the suit was gonna make him go invisible, but with
his own abilities or whatever on top of what the transformation happening inside of him,
he's able to almost achieve that with his speed without the suit. I
love that. H Yeah, it's very interesting. It's gonna be very interesting
to see how the Saundy power um ends up, you know, once it's
fully evolved what it's doing exactly. Will it change the whole power scaling system
of One Piece and will it change his personality. I doubt it's gonna change
his personality. I think he's gonna, you know, be in control of
it. But that would be crazy, like in terms of hopefully it comes
to like it's confirmed that he wasn't the one who kicked through or maybe I
missed it. I don't know if that's already been confirmed, but it seemed
to me like he was like during that he like kind of during that like
transformation, he kind of blacked out. Hello, Yeah, yeah, I'm
here. I was just looking at the chat for a bit. Do you
do you think already been confirmed who it was? So we must have missed
it. So who was it? It was Queen? Okay, oney?
Thirty four? I must have missed that then, all right, thank god?
Yeah I thought I thought it wasn't Sandi either, but I well,
they make it seem like it is in like one thirty one thirty two type
of thing. Thirty three Mum, we have to talk about going back to
the Zoro thing, Zoro versus King. We had Edma suddenly and mysteriously reacting
to King's power without Zoro consenting to it or doing anything about it. Which
yeah, like it's so the sword like absorbs his hockey and his energy in
his arms. Yeah, and like so it's happening without his permission, So
it's almost like Enma is like hass a personality of its own, Yeah,
which becomes a big topic in the coming chapters. We already do. That
was that was so cool, Like the extra bit added to Zoro's backstory.
Oh yeah, this was huge. So we got some more about Zoro's backstory
and swords are a big part of that. Um. We already talked about
the Hiori thing. Um, we talked about Queen confirming that King is a
remnant of the Lunarians, which is an ancient race of people who could survive
in any conditions and were once considered gods. Also apparently they used to live
on top of the red line and we're late and we're then somehow replaced by
the celestial dragons. So that's very interesting in terms of ancient history. We'll
definitely learn about. Yeah, with the Void century. Sure, yeah,
that's um very interesting stuff Like lunarians. We only know a little bit about
it, but it's big stuff. I feel like, you know, Kingsandi's
fire, how we're We learned about joy Boy stuff, well not joy Boy
but potentially joy Boy stuff with the Sun King or Sun god mhm um.
We talked about that I think previous we yeah, we talked about that in
previous Nica and the question whether he could be a lunarian as well, because
you know, Ularians considers God's sun power or firepower or all that stuff.
But I'm very interested, like what so the King that we're looking at right
now, Like what of what of that is his ancient Is that all his
like ancient fruit except for the fire, like all of his body changed?
Or is that how other lunarians looked like did they have that that look to
them? I'm yeah, we don't know, we don't know. I assume
that when he's in his base form, that is, he's wearing a mask,
But otherwise I assume it's his normal form. Do we know anyone else
with with fire that's constantly there? Or was it not constantly there for King
in them previous panels. I'm curious to go look back. I don't think
it was constantly there. I think it happens Losandri's the lunarian got it,
Well, this is the thing Sandri. Obviously we know who his parents are.
But it could be that lunarian DNA was used in those experiments. Yeah,
exactly, that that makes a lot of sense. It's weird that he
could just make this fire a period of nowhere like in the past we thought
maybe it was friction because even Lufy with his fist he was able to create
fire, but that was I think there are two different things. Yea,
and NAL's the lunarian, he's not the moon. I love. That is
confusing a bit because Luna means moon in like Spanish and the Romance languages,
so lunarian would be someone from the moon. But the lunarians that we've learned
about their associated with fire, so more sun esque. And they apparently lived
on the red line on the Moon, so that kind of confuses you.
But maybe they came from space before they were on the red line. That
was as our theory with the felestial dragons. Dude, though the celestial the
celestial dragons were from the Moon. And wait for it, the Sun in
one Piece is actually habitable, but only by lunarians with their thick black skin
ggs. Except they're not called celarians, they're called lunarians. Yeah. Yeah,
which moon. There's like seven maybe they're on different moons, but one
of them's on fire. Yeah, there's allegedly like eight different moons or planet
planets around the Earth of one Piece, because we see that in a in
the O'Hara flashback, right, we see like a solar system that seems to
have the Earth as the center and a bunch of satellite esque moon esque things
around it. But yeah, so I wonder if those are supposed to be
just moons of that planet like other planets have multiple moons, or if they're
supposed to be other planets that are just smaller, or you're just being maybe
portrayed as smaller because they appear as smaller from the planet but they're not really.
Yeah, I don't know what the scale of that, but it is
again, space is definitely something that would have has been teasing. So someone
in chat said lunarians are considered gods because they adapt to any environment, and
then asked, could they survive in space with suits or without suits? I
think it's been confirmed that you could survive in space without anything in this like
in this universe, like apparently he said you could go to the Moon and
like a hot air balloon like in an SPS or something like, it's possible.
Yeah, So people used to believe it in like I think Victorian times,
that the space was made of like ether or whatever they call it.
That basically meant it was like you could breathe in and it was like normal
air. It was just in space this is before obviously modern science and space
travel. So maybe in the world of One Piece, it's sold just normal.
You know, you can just breathe in space is just further away from
shit. I don't know. Mm hmm, yeah, I think I think
you could breathe in space in this in this like universe. But who knows,
because at the end of the day, anell is like an anomaly,
so we can't use him as like a factor that you can breathe in space.
Yeah, Shadow Swing asks do you think when they Corrosson said that the
declaimed with the enemies of the gods, they were referring to the lunarians who
were gods. Well, I don't know, because the celestial dragons are referred
to as gods now, and I just assume that the these were enemies of
the celestial dragons. Well we know for sure the celestial dragons and the lunarians
are enemies right with each other, Yes, so that each other kates it
then, right, So it would make sense if yeah, lunarium special dragons
are or oh the d's the enemy of the gods, that's what you said,
Yeah, ms I interpreted that as their the enemies of the celestial dragons,
So I don't know why they would be the enemies of the little Narians.
Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah, there's so much anyway I think we
should talk about. Well, so Thoro's fighting King right now, and he's
unable to do any damage to him, like he first he couldn't hit him,
and now that he's hitting him, he's not doing any damage. Yeah,
and at this point, Zoro is kind of like having doubts and shit
about himself and his power, and that's when Enma and Wadochimongji seemed to start
acting on their own, kind of breaking free from Zoro's control and a lot
of emphasis at this point, he's being placed on swords having their own personality
and a sword choosing its wielder. So this was like a big focus of
this. I think Enma just was the only one that acted up, but
he dropped the wado Chimonji. But he's kind of risky. He risked like
his life to catch these swords, right, But we get some really really
cool reveals in the backstory. Yeah, so we got a backstory or addition
to it. Like I wouldn't say it's full Zoro backstory, but we got
an addition to it where we learned that fifty years ago a master swordsmith from
Juano by the name of Shimotski Ko broke Wana law and left and he created
he essentially founded the village where Zoro is from. And this guy was also
Quena's grandfather, right, yes, And he has this idea that like,
so in like we we thought that cursed blades were like bad blades in a
way, like obviously they're good, but they like they have this personality of
their own and they're cursed and they cause bad things to happen to their wielders,
and that's what they're considered bad luck. Yeah, yes, and they're
harder to control because they have this mind of their own, right yes,
um, But in reality, it seems that these are some of the best
blades. You just have to be good enough to use them exactly exactly,
So they're not really occurs. They're a blessing in the right hands, exactly.
So. I thought this whole Shimotski stuff was very interesting because the village,
whose name is also Shimotski after this Juana master, was supposed to have
been started by pirates. That was the initial lower we got. Yeah,
and I'm willing to bet that Shimotski, Queena's grandpa was a pirate from Juana
who joined Zebek's ship, and that he was one of the pirates on Zebek's
ship before founding the village. Oh that's interesting. So yeah, we know
he was forced to leave fifty years ago for some reason. Yeah, how
did he get here? Who did he come with? Yeah, because we
know almost nothing about the fifty year ago, you know time, like we
know of twenty years ago, but fifty years ago is more of the Zebec
timeline rather than you know, anything to do with um Roger and stuff like
that. Yeah, sorry, I'm just I was just reading chat as well,
and someone said it's a curse to the weak, but the strong con
bended to their will. And the reason why it gets these curses is because
he made it. His view of swords are swords are meant to kill.
So if you can make a sort of the best swords that are meant to
kill have this aura to them, like have the intent to kill within the
sword themselves. It was funny though, when I was reading it, all
was thinking about was Apachai explaining muy tai because you could kill your opponent.
Yeah, I always appreciate your Kenchi references, not that I actually yeah,
um, he's like, why would boy Thai band in this bla bla blah
blah blah because you could kill your opponent? So why are you teaching it
to me? Because you can kill your opponent. Yeah. So some people
are saying that, oh, maybe Shimowski is just like a random dude who
left Wano. But again, the idea that it was created by the Shimotski
village was founded by pirates, and the idea that Zebek was a prominent captain
from over forty years ago, it lines up for fifty forty years. I
think there's a connection there, just be from a story perspective, because why
introduced this now and making this timeline unless it's going to tie in somehow to
what we know? Right, if it's you have to be tied with something,
yeah, because some wouldn't be just oh yeah he was this random dude
from Wano just randomly showed up and founded the village. No big deal,
Like there has to be some connection to something, otherwise it will be just
like you could have been anyone. You could have happened two hundred years ago.
Why fifty years ago. So also we find out that that this um,
this samurai blacksmith also created Zoro's other swords, So he's made both the
swords now right, and my and the other curse blade? What what was
it? No? No, not the Waddo. I thought it was the
other cursed one? Or was it waddo? Chat? I thought it was
ke Tetsu He tattoo. I also saw that he made too, but I've
I'm not sure which do? I think it is? Watto? That's what
Chat's saying. Yeah, in my notes, I said in mine waddo,
But I don't know if I got that right, because yeah, I haven't
really kept track of all the sword names. Bro, he was just like
nine at this point. Right, he tattoo is made by ke Tatsu.
Got it makes sense? Um. I loved the moment where obviously we're still
long with Zoro King fight. I loved the moment where Zoro says, I've
got a promise to keep to my captain and my best friend. All yeah,
because like obviously right now, Zoro struggling, you know, this animal
acting up, he's not able to damage King King is coffin Comfany's gonna kick
his ass but he's like, no, I'm gonna promise to keep to my
captain and to my best friend. And I was like, yes, yes,
I can't wait to share this moment with Knucks Taku. But there and
then you have it. There, you have it. Breaks betrayed the knock.
Come on, man, hashtag knucks betrayed the knock. Come on,
let's do it. Me and me and Animax. We're here Sanji and Lufy
and you know I mean Sanji and Zoro. And then our Lufi is like,
ha, I'm there. I go become king of become the king of
the Pirate's somewhere else I would have become the king of games. Actually,
yeah, you know it is what it is. Bro, I call Sanji
no, me no, but you don't want to say it. Likes to
pride yourself on chat dliness, so you can be Zoro and I'm more of
Asanji. I pride myself on respecting women. Oh man, oh yes.
So then back to the Sanji versus queen fight, because again the chapters are
taking us from one fight to another. It turns out the Sanjie already knows
how to do all of how to do all of his siblings Germa moves.
That's what we learn in Queen also able to do all the moves too well,
Queen. I think Queen was using like different technology, but trying to
prove that my technology is better than judges. Right, No, but he
stole a lot of judges technology. Like no, but he was saying no,
no, no, my technology is superior to judges, like that was
his whole Yeah, no, no, Chad saying Queen was able to use
all of Sanji's moves, not Thanji. Oh. I thought Sanji was mirroring
the moves, and then he used the invisibility to think as like a part.
Yeah, and I think that's what happened is Queen went invisible and kicked
that woman could either bitch. I didn't find that page, bro, I
guess I read the last chapter a little bit faster. Yeah. The problem
with these The problem with these chapters is like before when we used to do
the one piece of Virgin, when we were like not caught up, we
could just read the chapters right before. But now I usually read them kind
of like way before the podcast. So it's I forget some things, but
who cares, I'm the Virgin. I don't have to be an expert exactly.
I don't have to be an expert either. We're both virgin. You
have to be an expert. Break the new chapters. I don't even talk
about anime for a living anymore. Bro. Yeah, that is a good
point. You like stream games now, So okay, So Queen was the
one marrying the moves, but then SANGI show that he could do the turning
invisible thing with sheer speed rather than with the germa suit, right, m
that's what happened. So it's like Queen was basically saying my technology supperior to
Judges. Anyway, Judge sucks and then sounds like I don't need Judge.
I don't need any of you fuckers, And then he just shows his true
awakened power and that, dude, look a look at Sanji got a huge
power up here. So on top of like the diapple John Bay and the
armament hockey that he's used in the past, he now has an Esko skeleton
which like adds speed and muscle, so it increases his strength. Yeah,
we got a bit of an explanation here with Sanji, Like his augmented body,
awakened body now allows him to apply color a armament hockey to his body
in a more effective ways. So he's combining that augmented body with armament hockey
in order to kind of like take himself to the next level. And I
feel like Sanjie needed this because as much as I love him as a character,
his power was never like comparable to you or to Lufi and Zoro,
just because then you know, Zora's got the swords, Lufy's got the devil
fruit, but Sanji was just like I got hot kicks, bro. Yeah,
so I am happy that Sanji is powering up. But this power up
now combined with the hot kick, is now a even hotter kick. Yeah,
hotter and stronger. Okay, yes, more force, more fire.
However, I do love the fact that he didn't he destroyed the raid suit
and he decided not to go with the raid suit, because to me,
it was a fucking slap in the face. Like it's like he's so anti
his family and wants to do it on his own and not be like them
and live by his own principles and morals. And then he takes the raid
suit and that's his power up. When that happened in those previous chapters.
I was honestly very upset. I'm like, no, like I was.
I was not happy with it. Yeah. Yeah, I know you were
worried that it was actually going to go in that direction, but I didn't
think it would just you know, I didn't. Yeah, I never thought
that Sundry's personality would be affected. And even it made me really happy that
he destroyed the raids, destroyed the raid suit. Yeah, it was a
good Momentum. I'm just gonna take the call. Remember what I told you
about earlier. Yeah, by trying to be entertaining, Bro, I feel
like we covered it all. But yeah, I take the call. Take
the call. He didn't beat yourself, bro, Okay, I'm back.
Yeah. I just had to take my car. My car was getting its
tires changed. I had to leave it there. And now they're finally calling
me to say it's done. Um, you didn't mute yourself. You did?
Oh? I did. I did on the podcast thing, just not
on the ark. Cool anyway, I think we covered it all right now.
Moments trying to hold up this island. He's not able to fly it
around and move it, but he's able to slow it down and stop it
from falling. Other than that, like, I think we kind of covered
everything we need to talk about, So there's one thing I wanted to talk
about. Let me just check my notes. Yeah, so it seemed to
me like Sanjie just wrecked Queen, like in the final like scene of the
ten thirty four. It seemed like Sanji like trade up defeated Queen. Now,
obviously you can never say for sure, because it turns out it's like
like look look at Big Mom. It was like Big Mom's did It's like,
no, I'm not bitches, I just pulled the reverse Uno card,
so that could happen way Queen on. But to me, it really seems
like Sanji just like ragged Queen like preferently. Well, first he like cut
off like Queen's leg or arm, whatever electronic attachment he had, and then
with the final kick, with all that power up we were talking about,
like the final panel, he got like almost an entire page to himself.
Right, it looks like he ended it with that kick. We also forgot
to mention that CP zero joins the fray and is once again after Big Big
Mom. Oh my god, Robin, Yes, so Robin again comes into
the picture. I think this was hinted at in previous episode, but now
it was kind of confirmed that, Yeah, they want Robin straight up again,
so she's again relevant, and that tells me that something is brewing in
terms of the world history reveals, especially with the Marines preparing to descend on
Juano if something happens. I think they are worried that something joy Bore related,
something big is about to happen with Lufy and everything, and that is
why they're prepared. If Kido doesn't win, if kind of doesn't kill Lufi,
they will come and kill him to make sure that joy Boy stays erased
from history. I think you gets related. That makes sense, but it's
also just like a want of something that the world government has never had control
of and because of Kaido. So if Kaido follows, they want to they
want to sieze that territory. Well for whatever deeper reason, I don't know.
No, I think there's a deeper reason for sure in terms of the
world history stuff, but obviously that will be speculation. Some people in the
Child they're talking about Sanji's eyebrow reversing when he unlocked his latent powers. Really
it went the other way, but I don't want to call it germa powers
because they're latent powers. Okay, late, I mean it looks the same
to me right now, I'm okay. In chapter one thirty four, I
know it doesn't inspire the other way with it only for like a little bit,
then it returned the normal. They are the opposite way. It's no
way that how that's just I didn't notice that at all. Bro, I'm
looking at it right now. I thought it always swirled that way. It
reversed. It's not like his brothers. Oh that's interesting. Okay, cool,
you damn you nerds with all your little observation hockey pipe in a picture
of Sanji real quick, I need to compare these eyebrows. I mean,
it's a quick little hint telling us that, yea, oh, the spiral
is the same. However, the spiral used to be on the inside towards
the uni brow, and now it is on the outside of his face.
Uh huh. And that's like his siblings, right, Yes, what a
random thing for order to do, to be like to tell us, yo,
things are changing. I think they're changing his eyebrow. That's so funny.
Yeah, yeah, it's funny, Like Oda really puts a lot of
thought into it, and I'm not saying it makes sense from a biological perspective
or anything, but I still respect like all the little things he does and
put in, and I mean just the fact that Almo's dragon form was real
and like six hundred chapters ago or whatever. That's so insane. Chat saying
that Zora confirmed has conquerors Hockey. I thought we already knew that. Wasn't
that already a thing that was confirmed? I always assumed, Yeah, well
it was like I in like the last twenty chapters. I think there's been
a couple of occurrences I can't remember the details where we're like, yeah,
he has he has conquers hockey. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought
it was confirmed. And Lufy as well, obviously, yes, of course,
and yeah, I mean some people are still done. Yeah, Kaido
literally said it. I was going to say, but now he's using it.
Cool. Yeah, So this will be interesting because if Soanji really defeats
Queen, what happens next? Does that mean that Queen is gone? And
then Sandie's gonna do something else? Is he gonna help Zoro defeat King?
And then them two are gonna go back to the main fight with Kaido or
like what I wonder what's gonna happen, because right now everyone's kind of pair
it up doing their fights. But after that, how is the fight gonna
advanced? That's what I'm really holdering about. Is Lufi still up top with
Kaido and Momo left to keep a thing from falling and Yamato left, Yamato
left, Momo left, But I think Kaido and Lufi are still doing something
up there. Yeah, so they're still fighting. It's been a while.
Maybe, well, so Sangi just defeated Queen. Presumably maybe the next US
we get another reverse Suno, like in the next couple of chapters, maybe
Zoro defeats King, and then we're up to the final fight, which we'll
probably have more of a focus. Yeah, it really feels like we are
now approaching that time where the fights need to consolidate into the one big fight,
right rather than Hey, oh wow, knocks, Hey, how are
you? How are you? Bro? I'm doing pretty okay, pretty okay?
You still podcasting? Well, we're just just about to wrap it up
right now. All right? Final thoughts Sanji, epic moment, Zoro,
absolute Chad, did I was that pretty much? It was pretty much it?
Yeah, dude, oh no, no, you forgot one character.
The best character in fact enemone is alive, bro, don't remind me.
Oh and so is Conjuro. So is Conjuro in case, my god,
dude, I love the excuse. Oh yes, when when what's his face?
Law put me back together? He didn't do a complete job. So
when I was sliced exactly in that spot by Kaido and that's freaking spot that
that stupid little bro more keenem on more like winimon am I right? Guys,
n thank you for your It's like everything everything that he does with his
writing a round kinemon like that was such a dumb ass pull, honestly,
like I bet Otto started. Obviously, Oda is a big fan of mine,
so he was watching my content and letting he knows as a one piece
virgin fan that I hate what's his face? I hate this this ass stupid
bitch as idiot. And here he comes and he's like, yo, how
can I piss knucks off? I could fake kill him but bring him back
to life in a stupid way. Yes, I think I think that's true.
And speaking of people watching the one piece Vergion or listening to one piece
version like old half Course. Unique name Asaurus told me that he actually listens
to the one piece of Virgin. I didn't know that. My god,
that's so cool. Yeah, yoh, he actually watches like my content.
I'm very surprised. Yeah, I mean too. I It's that's terrible.
Why would anyone? Wow, I'm just kidding, man, I'm just kidding.
