I hope Pell and Chaka for some reason end up scrapping against Lucci, and we see Pell is awakened, confirming the theory that a zoan user has to be near death to awaken, and explaining how he survived the bomb and we all say "Oda does it again"

Brilliant!!
I'm doing yet another re-read, and something occurred to me: Laboon must be terrifying now.

You're a rookie pirate, heading to the Grand Line to make your fortune, you survive the harrowing experiences of reverse mountain to finally reach the ultimate sea, and the first thing you face is a giant, screaming, cyborg whale with the flag of an Emperor of the Sea painted on it.

Luffy's brief relationship with a whale probably stopped more pirates than the entire navy combined.

The official translation makes Dragon seem less clearly pro-Cobra.

I don’t understand how Karasu’s Devil Fruit works. Is he just shaping soot into crow-shaped constructs?

Also, there's that scene right before Im's reveal where the Gorosei said the Nefertiti family are all basically traitors since they refused to join the rest of the Celestial Dragon in Mariejois. I think whatever Cobra said to them, might just be the straw that broke the camel's back.

oh yeah i forgot about that. it seems possible enough that they went "oh you want to know the truth?" and just took cobra to im who then killed him, and sabo just happened to be sneaking around nearby, or was eavesdropping or whatever

he could make other kinds of birds with soot, but they'd still be black and he'd have to explain it each time. it's easier to just make crows. crows are rad, anyway.

I used to think crows were cool. Then about a month ago a crow decided I don't deserve to sleep, and will just randomly hang out right outside my bedroom window making noise. The best part is it took me weeks to figure out what the gently caress that sound was. Only figured it out because said crow also likes to hang out at the super market, making the same noise and staring at me.

yeah you can make friends with Crows. there's YouTube videos on how to start the process but yeah it's about feeding them. then building trust you aren't going to try and kill them

they also have really good memories

You can also make enemies with crows. It's entirely possible that it's too late in this case and whatever grudge this crow has against Gyges is irreconcilable. A crow passes their hatred down through the generations too, so just because you outlive them doesn't mean you'll be free.

To reiterate what others have said: to not gently caress with crows. Best bet in this case is probably to feed the crow and beg for their mercy.

I was trying to be optimistic. if a crow is following you around and making warning sounds it's basically calling you out. they have great vision and can recognize individual faces. so combine that with the memory and socialization skills they can get their buddies to help gently caress with people

like it might not even be the same crow every day and they're just rotating thru a murder of crows

Nah, there's no way for it to know that it's my apartment. I just happened to hear the noise I'd been trying to figure out, and saw it was a crow. I think it just likes to sit on the edge of roofs and make weird sounds.
