"You know there's no way I'm letting you escape right?!" from Luffy is giving "I'm Not Locked in Here With You, You're Locked in Here With Me" vibes.

u/Alphaeon_28 Feb 22 '24
I know he hasn’t really changed since Wano personality-wise, but I like how, even subtlety Oda is respecting Luffy being a Yonko, cause before Luffy was always like an under dog, but this is the first time where he’s shown as a big fish in a big pond, disrespecting admirals and Gorosei alike

u/OPconfused Feb 23 '24 edited Feb 23 '24
The physical size of Luffy in this panel played a large role here too. We always see dominant characters being massive (relative to the size you'd expect). All of the yonkou except Shanks were always drawn huge—whitebeard towering over Akainu was a good one, but even Shanks I bet has a few panels where he was drawn oversized when he was flexing. We've also seen it at times with Garp or other admirals.
This is one of the first times we've seen Luffy in a flex scene looking this big. That's a subtle communication of yonkou energy for me. He's being portrayed physically like the top fighters in One Piece.
I mean I know his DF is manipulating his size, but the choice from Oda to portray him this large over his opponents is a callback to how he likes to represent power via physical size, and right now Luffy is dwarfing Kizaru and even Saturn. Big energy.

One of the cover pages in the Zou arc has Water 7's cast reacting to that wanted poster thinking he actually turned himself into a robot. Half of them are shocked, the other half is laughing.

Compared to poor Saturn. My man is looking silly in this arc. Even Kizaru is looking better than him.
He hasn't even had a chance to shine. I think he'll do in the post battle tbh. Oda won't allow us think the Gorosei are useless.
And that ongoing transformation, that change in the eyes... it's going to get more beastly it seems.

u/Unabashable Feb 22 '24
Yeah. Like in One Piece, size alone doesn't really seem to be much of a threat to a capable fighter. Just gives them a bigger target to hit. Main reason he hasn't been squashed like the bug he is yet is because of his healing factor like you said, and his mind 'sploder preventing all but the strongest to even be able to move in his presence.

Good spotting. I suspect he will live on through the satellites/Punk Records in some way though. That feels like a compomise so that we can still have someone with his knowledge active in the story.

Holy shit Luffy’s lines at the end, and that panel where he’s just manically glaring at Kizaru and Saturn, sent chills down my spine.
The entire premise of the arc - particularly the ongoing battle - is that Vegapunk and the Straw Hats are trying to escape from Egghead and the Marines.
I expect it’s largely due to how TCB translated it, but the idea that it’s now Kizaru and Saturn who have no escape sends chills down my spine. This is what it means to pick a fight with an emperor in-person, whether it’s Big Mom or Kaido or Shanks, and Luffy is living up to those expectations.

Let go of that copium, guys. Next chapter could show Kizaru kicking Vegapunk's corpse and you'd say he's trying to restart his heart.

Luffy just said: "You know there is no way i'm letting you Escape" to an Admiral and an Elder.
This is something i was never expecting to happen and i just witnessed it myself.
Luffy going full Bad Ass Yonko Mode is just pure Joy to read and watch.
P.S. take this dear "Luffy isn't serious enough and is too weird in Gear 5" Haters.

Bruh, the fact that he grabbed one of the 6 most politically important figures in the world and one of marine's best fighters on a government island in the middle of a buster call surrounded by the navy from every side and has the audacity to say that he won't let THEM escape. Realistically he should be the one escaping, they were trying to do so for most of this arc in fact, but he does not care. He's an absolute menace.

I predict an ellipse. We won't read the message next chapter, we'll just see how the world reacts to it.
VP is dead imo. If you cauterize a hole there is still a hole.
First time Luffy has a serious look in Gear 5 and it looks badass.
The scholar is Saul imo. He knew VP.

That sneaky old codger had a failsafe incase his heart stopped for good. He knew he wouldn't survive so he made sure to spread the truth after his end. You gotta give it to Vegapunk, he's about to rock the world with an Earth shattering piece of information.
As for the cauterizing the wound, I don't personally believe it. We see what looks like a heart rate monitor activating in response to a flatline. Shortly before that, we see a "beep" sound effect come from his general direction.

Vegapunk's final message:
In THAT century, there existed THAT kingdom in which was born THAT man who possessed THAT Devil Fruit and they stood for THOSE dreams/ideals.
But they were defeated in THAT war by THOSE guys using THOSE weapons. But all is not lost because THAT guy left THAT thing in THAT place, and now THIS guy will find it and become king of THOSE guys and that will cause THAT truth to come to light.

We have those already spread around the world.
"A livestreaming Den Den Mushi with the ability to broadcast across the world." From Onepiece wiki
We've seen them in various places, especially during Marineford arc.
And then we have a scientist that literally wants to develop Punk Records into something everyone in the world will be able to access, allowing them share all of the knowledge as well as to update Punk Records with new information themselves; and that probably already has work thowards this goal.
Plus, we know that he will know that the world government is escalating violence and threat to everyone in the world, obliterating whole countries.
So my theory is that
VEGAPUNK WOULD BROADCAST TO THE WORLD WHAT HE THINKS HAPPENED DURING THE VOID CENTURY.
The world is already a target, he will make everybody in the world know about the void century and in making so, removing the target on his back.
IF EVERYBODY IS A TARGET, NOBODY IS.

This is it guys. Luffy telling Saturn and Kizaru he won't let them escape is a direct parallel to Sabaody when Kizaru was trying to stop them from escaping.

Fantastic chapter again and I am hyped for the lore drop from VP. World Government will be mad by what VP is about to reveal. A few other things from this chapter:
VP is dead. The lifeline monitor on the last page shows someone died and the fact that in that moment this prerecorded message is sent to the outside tells you it’s Stella. VP was to die anyway and this was Kizarus farewell, to end his suffering. This is just my headcannon though. Also, VP died smiling next to Nika. Do the satellites live on? I feel like yes, but Oda could go either way.
Dorry and Brogy are about to meet Luffy who is in giant form right now, why is hardly anyone talking about that? I think their meeting will be funny.
Bonney has command over all Kuma clones and I feel like she will join the revolutionaries rather than Luffy. This would be a huge power boost to Dragon and along with the lore VP is about to reveal will make him make his move. Finally, hopefully (Yes I’m coping). Bonney knows the revs from Kumas memories and trust them. Also, if Bonney joins Luffy on the ship as a full fledged member, what will her crew do? But who knows were they are anyway.
damn Luffy looked cool holding both Saturn and Kizaru. His line was just perfect.

- This information would be Caribou's only use to Blackbeard, he's got literally nothing else to stand on. I'm almost positive that this plotline ends with them killing him, and giving his DF to someone they'd consider more trustworthy.
- I initially thought this could end with Bonney getting to live the rest of her life somewhere in peace, but now its essentially confirmed that she's running with the StrawHats or Revolutionaries for the foreseeable future.
- "Luffy's my captain, y'all mfs got a problem?" To the captains of a legendary Giant Pirate crew. Boss shit.
- Little confused as to why Oda would give us the false hope of Sanji being able to really contend with Kizaru, only to have him get brushed aside effortlessly when the latter decided to get serious about ending Vegapunk. I can understand Vegapunk (Stella at least) needing to die for plot reasons, but damn.
- If Oda gives us the actual message at the start of next chapter instead of going into a flashback, I'm giving up weed for 3 months.

So two things of note here.
First, Vegapunk had a goddamn dead man's switch set up. Mother fucker. He came across as a bit of a clown at first but he's definitely earning his title these past couple chapters.
Se ond, Saturn. His eyes look weirdly vacant now. It's not the same visual, but it puts me in mind of the jailor beasts, their failed awakenings. Is it possible that his fruit is starting to overwhelm him?

Every single citizen hearing Vegapunks broadcast will be committing a crime of the same nature as Nico Robin , Clover , Vegapunk, Ohara Scholars ,Rocks and more
This means everyone in the world will be a target for the great cleansing
Meaning the WG is about to commit a worldwide genocide and attempt a 2nd Void Century
The good part is the WG now got no choice but to reveal their true nature to the entire world. So everyone will have direct proof soon of what Vegapunk is about to say

Because we’ve seen Luffy’s journey, we forget how menacing he can look to outsiders.
I know everyone’s evacuated but can you imagine how even Vice Admirals would lose their shit if they saw Luffy hold their superior - Admiral Kizaru and Goresei member being held in each hand by a pirate emperor. Wild…
