A filler idea that doesn’t consume any runtime seems a bit incoherent.

The only way I see Akainu turning on the WG is if the WG decides to sacrifice all the marines as acceptable collateral damage. Say there’s a big Marineford 2.0 battle and the WG decides to nuke the site from orbit. Or if the WG has a way to flood the world as a reset button. It’s only when it affects himself that I can see him flipping on them, in all other circumstances he toes the line. It’s already standing operating procedure for the WG/marines to nuke entire islands/kingdoms if the acquire dangerous knowledge or are harbouring a dangerous individual and Akainu seems okay with this. There’s some friction between Akainu and the WG but it seemed like due to matters of strategy rather than conscience.

Lord_Magmar posted:Akainu is all in on making sure anyone even possibly close to being criminal is deterred from criminal action. His issues with the World Government are more to do with him finding the Celestial Dragons obnoxious and interruptive to the pursuit of absolute justice because they demand the Marines do things for them. Nuebot posted:I can, theoretically, see him snapping at some point if he learned too much about the truer nature of the elders, Im, and the nobles in general and such; or was forced to overlook too many crimes and garbage behaviour. We've already seen him argue with the elders and he seemingly has a strict internal code even if he is a complete rear end in a top hat and he doesn't seem to like the elders or the nobles much even if he does their bidding. So I could see him turning on the government and taking his loyalist marines against them. Agree that Akainu’s code is basically “all criminals must die”. But the WG are the ones that decide who is a criminal, which they can do for petty and arbitrary reasons. And Akainu just goes along with it whenever that happens. When the WG decides to wipe a kingdom off the map on a flimsy pretext then Akainu doesn’t even blink. Akainu already knows how bad the WG is, and no matter how much he believes in his own sense of justice it’s pretty clear that theirs is bullshit and he gets stuck doing what they want. There’s no dark secret he could learn and no order he could receive that would really change things. So that’s why I think only injustice that affected him personally would change things. Okay I guess there’s one more possibility - if say the WG decided to pardon Blackbeard and formally appoint him as a marine Admiral then that might be enough to make Akainu snap. I don’t think there’s any threshold of collateral damage to innocent bystanders that would flip Akainu, but being forced to let insanely guilty men go free just might do it.

I’m not sure if there was some kind of error on my phone or if I’m just an idiot, but the first time I read the chapter I somehow missed the last page and let’s just I was extremely confused when people were talking about the last page reveal.anime was right posted:also we are so getting luffy vs kizaru and the strawhats vs VAs, right? its gonna rock When it lists out “Nine Vice Admirals + Admiral Kirazu“ and “Including Emperor Luffy his crew has 10 members“ almost back to back it’s telegraphing that super hard yeah. Might be some 2-v-2s rather than all 1-v-1s but guessing opponents: (VA spread going from right to left, top to bottom) 1-Zoro 2-Nami 3-Usopp 4-Robin 5-Franky 6-Jinbei 7-Sanji 8-Chopper 9-Brook

Burning the letters was primarily spiteful rather than serving a practical purpose. And that’s fine. Bad guys doing petty, mean and spiteful things is on brand. It did end up blowing up in their faces by compelling Bonney to go out to sea to find Kuma, but Alpha didn’t know that would happen. Alpha probably expected Bonney to give up on Kuma after not hearing from him at all- bad guys underestimating other peoples sentimentality being something of a running theme for this arc. And as far as Alpha knew Bonney was just a powerless sick child. If Kuma did sneak her some valuable intelligence there’s no expectation of her being able to act on it.

The Egghead Island incident AKA Elder Star Saturn’s very bad no good day. Glad people explained what the hell Devon’s fruit does because I had no idea at all. Don’t agree that this acts as a death flag for Saturn though. “How can they impersonate Saturn if the real one is alive?” Uhh, more like how can they impersonate Saturn if the real one is dead. Even the most unquestionably obedient marine might start asking questions if a dead guy turns up and starts barking orders. For some things it benefits the WG to hide their failures but Morgans won’t keep his mouth shut about this one, and if Saturn does go down it’s probably better for them to try to make him a martyr than to bury it as a secret.

Kizaru goes back in time and convinces Vegapunk to make his defensive shield out of lava rather than light, so Akainu can come here instead and Kizaru gets the day off.

Imagine working your way up through the marines for 10 years, reaching the position of Vice Admiral and you’re about to secure a huge promotion by gloriously murdering a little girl... then suddenly a giant comes out of nowhere and flattens you in one panel.

If you’re playing 5 dimensional chess to engineer an outcome, presumably you’d want to engineer a good outcome. But seems like every faction is going to be pissed about how the Egghead incident shakes out. Multiple Vegapunks died. WG/marines are pissed that Bonney has command of the pacifistas and that they had blow up half of science land and that a bunch of giants smashed their ships. Straw hats pissed that they got forced into retreat and had to run away from their second (third for robin) buster call. Lucci is pissed that he got stomped on in his glorious rematch. Well I guess the giants seem like they’re having fun.

Vega Punk mentions committing 2 grave sins. Presumably one of them is what he did to Kuma. Given where the conversation is going I guess the Mother Flame is the other and we’ll get a bit more info on that.
