its the most likely turn of events. Jack has some connection to kaido who I think was heavily involved with the wano country so it would make sense that that island is the big one and also ends the samurai's being part of the crew like alabasta

I think Wano is definitely the next country. Zou seems to be close in proximity based on the apparent dislike of Minkmen towards samurai, plus Kaidou being properly introduced and Dofy apparently being rescued by Jack. I also think Zoro will get an upgrade, possibly through a new technique from Kinemon or a master swordsman in Wano to defeat Kaidou's forces and free Wano, and an Ace flashback from his time on Wano.

I don't think we'll be getting another short arc ever again; everything is too tied into the main plot now. I'd hope Zou doesn't go beyond 40-50 chapters though.

Yeah, 40-50 is the new short; both fishman island and punk hazard were in that range. Dressrosa was 101 chapters. If we get a lot of curlyhat flashbacks, maybe Zou will be in between at like 60 chapters? But I'd be fine with less than 50.

I hope every arc isn't as long as Dressrosa. It was too much. But I won't hold my breath. This current arc seems like the New world equivalent of Skypeia.

One of the leaders of Zou gets super mad at Wano and manages to redirect the elephant to trample Wano to dust. Luffy saves Wano by punching the elephant really hard.

Zou is the new Laboon. Luffy will punch him and learn his tragic past, leading into the Wano/Kaido arc. The dub will turn him into a wandering iceberg.

Sinners Sandwich posted:That's basically how I felt about Punk Hazard and look how that turned out Why would you think that about Punk Hazard? The only reason I'm thinking that about Zou is because Sanji and Co. have already been on the island for a week, but Punk Hazard was brand new and untouched until Luffy got onto the island to mess things up, so of course that spiraled out of control. Things have already cooled off here, so I don't much see why we'd stay here beyond picking the crew up and tying off loose ends. Kinda like another Sabaody, only with more flashbacks.

Well keep in mind that between Alabasta and Skypiea we had Jaya, so Zou might be the New World equivalent of Jaya, where the Hats show up, do a quick thing, Luffy punches out a guy who's being an rear end in a top hat and then everyone fucks off for somewhere else connected to it - in this case, presumably Wano.

No chapter yet but here's the spoilers. From the Decks of the World ~ The 500,000,000 Man ~Vol. 4 Usopp's Hometown, Syrup Village -Wanda's recollection continues... Mammoth: "The warrior from Wano should be here!!" The Minkfolk begin talking. "A mammoth? Why is an ancient animal like that...!?" The monkey that fell on Kin'emon as the Strawhats were climbing the big elephant climbs the watchtower and begins ringing the bell. He screams to the forest "Ha...ha... Enemy attack~~~!!!!」 Minks:"The gate's been broken!" "It's pirates!!! Drive them out of here~~!!!!」 Minks:"Warrior from Wano!? Raizou!? We don't know anything about him!!" "Don't wreck our country!! Go away!!" -Sheepshead, "The Top Star of the Gifters" appears.- Sheepshead:"Hahaha… you、the illusive country of the Minks…you really are quite beastly" Minks: Identify yourself!! Who are you-gara?!! Sheepshead: "Do you know who you're talking to?!! You're in the presence of the Emperor Kaidou's retainer!! "One of his 3 closest members called 'The Disasters'!! 'Jack the Drought'!!" -The area Jack passed through is withered and destroyed just as his name implies.- "Hand over Raizou!! You wouldn't want to have you peaceful lives jeopardized would you!? Or do you want to fight?」 Jack's goons: "Gehehehe" Monjii(an old Mink)"We don't wish to fight!! But if you have no ears to listen to us, it does no good to talk..." "You're Jack you say...we don't lie. If you're looking for someone you may search each building..." -Before he can finish, Jack swipes the Minks away.- Goon: "Gyahahahaha、women, children, the old, none will be spared!!" Jack: "Gin Rummy, did we come here for a discussion?" Gin Rummy "No, Jack. We came here to capture the samurai." Sheepshead:"Idiot, he ain't a samurai. Raizou's a ninja!! Gin Rummy "Silence, Sheepshead! Samurai is just a general name for the warriors of Wano! Either word is fine." Jack: "I desire only one thing! Bring me Raizou!" Minks: "How can...?! but we said he isn't here!!" Jack: "Then, "Pleasures", scour the country!" -The Pleasures begin to attack, but they are repelled by the Minkfolk's "Electro" attacks.- Defeated Pleasures: "Gyaha...!!What's! What the!Them!! That old man!! The brat!!" "That hurt!" Monjii:"There are no weaklings in this country! The Minkfolk are natural-born warriors!! Even babies know self-defense!!" Jack: "…!?" Monjii:"You-gara, are you going to make enemies and fight the whole country!? Even then, there's our trained Musketeers with skill that words fail to describe!" "It won't be resolved by fighting! If you're looking for someone, won't you just talk to our country's Duke!!" Jack: "Talk? I refuse. "Gifters, ahead!" The Gifters, a group of weirdos with animal parts of their bodies, rush forward. Minks:"What? Their bodies?!" Jack:"Destroy the country and get me the samurai!" -Wanda's recollection finishes. The scene changes.- Wanda:"…They didn't want to talk at all and just started fighting. The city became a battlefield in an instant." Usopp:"…!! An Emperor's subordinates!! They attacked the country…!!" Robin: "Kaido's..." Wanda:"…Ah, Why did they come all the way here… I don't know why they would think a samurai was here." Luffy:"Hey, Usopp! She said a mammoth!" Usopp: (in a tiny voice)"That's nothing to be happy about. Think about what happened!" Brook:"So…now you understand why you can't say "samurai" and "Wano" around here!?" Franky:"Yeah…" Robin: "Awful people." Luffy:"…But the ninja Kin'emon was talking about isn't here〜That's a let down." -Usopp, Brook, and Nami's faces go pale.- A curious Wanda: "Eh?" -Usopp, Nami, and Brook pound Luffy- Wanda:"Ninja?…"You mean the warrior from Wano? Do you-tia know anything about them?" Brook: "No, no, not at all!! eh...the wounded!! How was the condition of the wounded…?" Wanda: "Ah...I saw the Duke's treatment room. I wouldn't be good for them to come out here…Let's continue our talk later. -Voices can be heard from the treatment room- "Gyaaー!!" "I apologize, Sir Sicilian〜!!" "Sir Sicilian is going mad〜!!" "Ahー!!" Wanda rushes over. "Sir Sicilian!? What is it!?" One of Duke Inuarashi's 3 Musketeers, "Full strength" Sicilian(Lion-minkman):"Oh、Wanda?…!! Hoo…they-gara speak only of sweets things, so I just cast them into the valley! Kindness・Love・Romance・Babies・Sugar・Honey!! Never speak of such saltless things in front of me again!! I'll rip out your throats!! Ha,come back up here by your own strength!!」 The Minks that Sicilian threw into the valley: "Oo ow wow…""Harsh…but…so cool...""I'm sorry!! I'll never speak of sweet things again!!" Sicilian:"So long as you understand that!" Wanda: "Sir Sicilian, these are the Strawhats." -Sicilian jumps way up and lands in front of the Strawhats, lowering his head (as Fujitora did to King Riku).- "I thank you for saving this country. I shall never forget what you have done." Wanda: "Sir Sicilian always does everything with all his might." Luffy:"Hot-blooded lion, huh." -Sicilian opens the door.- "The Duke is waiting inside. In!! …No dawdling!!」 Chopper: "Ah, Luffy!" King of the Daytime, Duke Inuarashi:" You-gara are the Strawhats, are you?" Wanda:"Duke, you're all right!" Inuarashi: "You really saved us then. Thank you, truly." Luffy:"I think it was my crew actually, but I haven't really heard about what happened yet." Inuarashi:"No、you all too…Strawhat Luffy." Luffy: ".. but you're a strong old guy. Really strong, yeah?! Wanda: "What? That's rude. The Duke is the best warrior in this land" Inuarashi:"…haahaa…Stop…you say that to a loser." Wanda: "Loser?! Well, the enemies were quite strong. They were more prepared to battle. If Jack hadn't brought that weapon here...!!" Luffy:"Huh? Weapon?" Chopper:"Yeah, that's right Luffy. One of Caesar's poison gas weapon destroyed this country!"

I'm digging this arc. It's giving off this Jaya arc feel, but the big conflict is basically resolved so I can't really tell where this is all heading. I'm guessing that second wave of goons with the deformities Jack sent out would be the result of Smile's causing those potential side effects mentioned during Punk Hazard.

I think the issue is that we know we could be given one simple chronological explanation, so the fact we aren't getting one sticks out a lot more.
