Izo waa one of the captains for Whitebeard during the war arc. Love how every new OP character lately has somehow appeared or been mentioned pre timeskip.

And the octopus fishman guy Karma is one of Whitebeard's allies from the war. Hope he gave up his human trafficking bullshit.

It's kind of a weird thing to say but I think the flashbacks might consistently be my favourite parts of One Piece.

Roger looks more like his son than usual.

I think this is one of the first times we've seen Roger without his eyes in shadow. He's usually drawn to look hulking, shadowy and mysterious, having him actually be a viewpoint character is new.

Gonna be lol if this ends up with Whitebeard doing anything to pawn Oden off onto Roger up to and including throwing a Davy Back Fight. They even have Whitebeard obliquely reference the problem he experienced firsthand of a crew with too many dominant personalities who want to do their own thing.

Oden is definitely being shown as a lot like Luffy, complete with sheer childlike glee at being exposed to so many new things in his travels.

Looks like Toki is from the Void Century.

Yeah, she definitely is. I love how that was a casual throwaway line, even. Makes sense, since it would mean nothing to Oden and presumably the rest of Whitebeard's crew as well.

What about when Roger was hearing the voice of the Sea Kings on the ocean floor? Not sure if that was anime filler or not.

Still, I do think this is the first time we've seen Roger with softer, younger features.

I've been reading this comic for ten years and I can't believe we're on the very cusp of our first fully-fledged flashback with Gol D. Roger... It's almost sad... It really feels like One Piece is entering its home stretch!

God, that's totally going to be it. And that will be the key to Roger getting to Laugh Tale, and those "in the know" will think Roger masterminded the whole scenario.

For years people have posited all these wild theories about how Roger planned out his journey to Raftel and poo poo but in reality he just thought samurai were wicked cool and lucked out in finding a guy who also happened to be able to read the world's history. Classic loving Oda. I love him.

hold on, do we know if Oden can read that? or is it possible that Toki, having lived in the relevant era, knows that poo poo. So he lucked out on finding a cool guy who also happened to be dating the girl who could read the world's history.

Chapter 818 established that Oden can read/write Poneglyphese

I didn't think that we'd be lucky enough to get a Davy Back Fight again, let alone in this arc, but Oden being on Roger's crew and Izu still being a Whitebeard ally is filling me with hope. I want to believe.

It is extremely telling that to me that when Whitebeard lets Oden on the ship he calls him brother, not son.

There was a slight error in communication-they heard him say "D. One Piece", which others interpreted as "The One Piece", but Roger actually just said "Done. Peace."

Probably by doing the absolute shittiest thing he could think of, failing anyway and then getting bailed out by the Beast pirates at the last moment.

I think it has to do with their wills than their level of strength, his subordinates are with him because they all look up to him and wish to follow him so he calls them his sons while Oden clearly has his own ambitions and is just tagging along for the ride. He’s more of a guest and kindred spirit I suppose
