fr though (1079 spoilers) the last chapter was depressing for me honestly, i love Kid so much but if he survives that I'll honestly just be sad that another fakeout death happened that too for one of my favourite characters
The crazy thing is Oda is going to find someway to come up with a plot that none of us can end up predicting 😂, every chapter in the final saga has been insane
Thats why I was never bothered by Gear 5 or basically anything else, because I know Oda is gonna Nail it. Is he perfect? No.. Is He damn near Close? Heck yes!
Right? Chopper was honestly really underrated pre time skip and his monster form during Ennies lobby was one of the best moments in all of one piece to me.
I think it’s too late-Chopper is practically the official mascot for One Piece. He joins Usopp as another character who’s somehow become worse post-timeskip.
Facts! Chopper could’ve had great moments and growth in Wano. Have him learn from the Minx and the different Zoan users. So many opportunities Oda could’ve tried to have Chopper learn Haki, learn awakening, and even improve his overall skills. Maybe even having his medical skills be used in his fighting style. So must potential wasted man
Long Ring Long Land was important for the crew and the readers to bond with Robin, before that arc she was still pretty much an outsider that invited herself into the crew and then went out on adventures by herself always being distant But the competition actually forced her to cooperate and interact with everyone else, then on its climax we are introduced to Kuzan who specifically targets Robin, and the crew has to come together to defend her, all of that just after we spend a mini arc hanging with her on what was pretty much a festival about testing the bonds of a crew Neither Water seven nor Enies Lobby would have been as impactful without the set up and ground work that Long Ring Long Land did, people have to remember that before that arc we still had Zoro saying that he was gonna cut Robin if she acted suspicious while they were on Skypeia
While this is true, it's not the case that Oda couldn't have progressed the plot at the same time. I have no idea what that would have looked like, but I doubt that Oda's only goal (outside of comedy) was to show off Robin, who panel-for-panel didn't really do all that much during the Davy Back.
I agree, seeing them have to work together right before an arc where the crew essentially falls apart was great set up. Theres some great luffy and ussop moments which makes their fight even more devastating to watch
Exactly, you always hear people say they want more moments of the SHs just hanging out and working together and yet those same folks crap on Long Ring Long Land and even arcs like TB for being slow, unnecessary, only hype at the end, etc. etc. Yet both of these arcs are full of SH moments of them working, bantering, and fighting together - without some greater overarching threat to distract us. I would love for there to be even more value for LRLL and Davy Back fights as a concept in this final saga.
I have always loved the concept of the Davey Back fight ever since it was introduced in Long Ring and it would be really fitting to have it come back with the straw hats and red haired pirates. Having the Poneglyph rubbings and locations on the line would add to the stakes as it is a tangible indicator of the SHs journey during the new world and how they’ve amassed strength. And seeing that put on the line for the potential to find the one piece and have Luffy be PK would be a sight to see. But that’s just me. Oda is writing this series; so who knows what he will do.
Oda would only do that because he knows there's no way to realistically have anyone outside of Luffy, Zoro, or Sanji winning actual fights against their Red Hair match-ups. Usopp being the best example.
I really hate well drawn out theories like these. Either they're right and I almost feel spoiled about how the story will go or it doesn't happen and I get disappointed because it was so well examined to me.

Shanks & the Red Haired Pirates vs Luffy & the Straw Hats! Come one come all to witness the Pirate battle of the Millennium! Why? Because Egg Head & Bee Hive have external forces coming.

Morj, I think you're on to the right idea but not quite. I think the best outcome would be that Kid gets defeated by Shanks and is captured and set to be killed. Then the Straw Hats show up, everything is jolly while the crews meet and everyone is reintroduced to the giants, but then Luffy hears about Kid. While not friends per say, I think Luffy wouldn't be okay with Shanks killing him and either he or Ussop challenges the Red Hair pirates to a Davy Back fight. The stakes being Shanks let's Kid go if the Straw Hats win while Luffy hands over his Road Poneglyphs if he loses. This makes more sense since Luffy and Shanks' crews are more evenly alligned for competitions than having a three way game where it'd basically be Kid and Killer versus two well padded out crews. It'd give Ussop a chance to shine against his dad in a competition and by possibly being the one who mentions the game as a solution. And I think overall it fits the characters and puts them in a good place to end Kid's story. He'd feel completely embarrassed to have been beaten and then his life saved by Luffy, giving him the chance to finally acknowledge Luffy as his better and pull out of the race for PK. And I also believe this would be showcase to Shanks that Luffy really has the right attitude to become Pirate King. He doesn't have to kill his enemies to overcome them, but rather finds a way to best them, earn their respect, and grow further. Like Mihawk said, Luffy's greatest strength is being able to get people on his side and once Shanks sees that Luffy can get even a ruthless Captain Kid to set aside his rampaging and admit defeat with admiration, he'll know Luffy has to be the one to go to Laugh Tale and claim the One Piece.
Thank God the Davy back fight you proposed didn’t happened just because as a reader/viewer, I want to watch battles which are at stake and not something friendly.
To be fair he did say it is likely Kid is stupid enough to just go at him and be promptly defeated so I disagree it aged badly. One of his scenarios played out, he just didn't think it was likely.
do crews exchange members every davy back fight, or was that just foxy's condition to fight?because if they exchange members, i think usopp's dad being forced to temporarily join the strawhats by usopp would be hilarious
What if Kid and Law both get washed in their fights as a way to show how strong the remaining Yonko are. Them getting dominated would serve as a warning to Luffy about the challenges to come.
Hopefully Oda has Kidd show out. Have him unlock Advanced King’s Haki and improve his move set from Wano. Also show why Big Mom dodged those animal attacks from Kidd. Maybe they had Haki in them and exploded on impact? Idk, I just want a Kidd to show why Oda had plans for him.
Lol people deluding themselves into thinking Oda "has plans" for Kidd when so far dude has just taken L's in the New World (except when he helped Law take out Big Mom by pushing her once). Kidd is the definition of hitting a wall over and over, waiting until somebody tears it down, and then claiming you did 50% of the work.
@Martín Mayo As people claim he's sorta like Luffy without plot armor, but I feel like in Elbaf it'll be different for him, he may be an idiot for trying to challenge Shank's entire army but since the odds seem so highly stacked against him I feel like Oda is definitely trying to play him as the underdog and I feel like he'd do decently in a fight against Shanks (like Law vs. Blackbeard). Also people sorta forget that Kid is one of the people who defeated Big Mom, which the giants despise, so that's definitely going to play into something.
Agreed. But look at all these haters in the replies smh. We’ve seen kid’s feats in Wano people just pay no attention to it because it wasn’t as flashy as everyone else… WHO ELSE IS BODY SLAMMING MOM/KAIDO at his size??? Sure as shit not Luffy or law. It took Luffy until gear 5 to match that strength. You guys just hate on kid because you’re bandwagon af. Watch once kid does something crazy, a lot of these kids attitudes are gonna change
Also I’m not saying Kid would beat shanks, I can already foresee you dweebs thinking that. That giant fleet he’s pulling up onto kid with though? I don’t think it’s gonna exists once this conflict of over
I love the idea of a 3 way Davey Back that turns into a lowkey training arc. Imagine the Straw Hats and Kidd pirates ask for haki training or information since they already have the ponegliffs.
unlikely it would be that sort of training. Luffy and Kid have defeated emperors. The whole point of Luffy meeting Shanks so late was that he had to be on the same level. I'm not saying both wouldn't hone their skills and get stronger through battling Shanks, they absolutely would. But I can't ever see any one of them outright asking Shanks for training. That would devalue their (and especially Luffys) current status and what they've achieved. A Katakuri-like scenario is very possible, where they grow in strength by fighting the Red hair pirates.
It would be a beautiful way to introduce this again especially with their three personalities clash and I do believe watching shanks drink and party with Luffy would be an absolute riot like he did with mihawk even tho I'm sure shanks wouldn't do it with kid but it would pretty funny to watch them party after in good spirit
Your Shanks Davy Back Fight video got me on the Morj train long ago, hope it truly comes true because I remember how much sense it made to me back then!
I would say it could be fun if Shank kills Kid, maybe Oda always had plans for Kid as he planned to kill Kid by hands of Shanks to show Shanks motives ( not necessarily fully evil but not purely good)
Genius level plot/theme comprehension n rationalization. Congrats on another outstandin vid, dis would be VERY satisfactory, but I’d still be content as long as Oda progresses the plot in a sharp way
oh with all this set up for the davy back fight i wonder if it will be revealed that the reason Kaido never went to Marineford is because he lost a Davy Back fight against Shanks. that would be pretty funny and maybe we could get more of kaido in flashbacks.
Yeah never thought about it that way - Kidd has been a punching bag for 3 Yonko in total lol. He won against Big Mom but definitely took hits. On a side note, it may not be possible for the Straw Hats to reach Elbaf by the time this potential Davy Back fight starts... Idk man, feels like we would have to resolve the Among Us situation on Egghead and we also have Kizaru and Saturn gunning for Egghead. Might be a close call, but I'm not confident the Straw Hats will reach on time. However, if they do, I can totally see Luffy jumping at the chance to get in a Davy Back against Kidd and Shanks
I want so badly for this to happen. The idea of throwing Cross Guild in there as well... Remember how freaked out the Marines were that Big Mom and Kaido were joining up? Yeah if word gets out that Luffy, Shanks and Buggy are doing a Davy Back to form the strongest crew...
Prior to that video I was thinking of a 3 way DBF between the Red Haired, Strawhat Pirates and Cross Guild and I didn't consider Kid instead or even a 4 way ..... very fun stuff indeed
Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!. What if Big Mom betrayed kiado to get him out the way, she purposely let her crew stay behind Took out two of kiados top men, ulti page one. She told perospero she knew what she was doing and that she had a plan but we never saw the payoff for her sneaky tactics against Kaido that was definitely foreshadowed All that plus a lot of us want to see her payoff at elbaf
A lot of people goofing on you for getting the theory wrong but everything you said made sense. If only oda actually had some meaning to writing kid as a character 😂
@@conormurphy4328 could’ve and should’ve done it without undermining the whole point of kids character which was to be luffys main rival in the new world
At first I didn’t like this theory all too much. But the more I think about it the more I do. I didn’t like the idea of Luffy v Shanks all out war but Davey Back Fight makes all the sense to what Luffy said in the very first flashback with Shanks. He said he would assemble a crew as good as his and he’d surpass him. Pinning the Strawhats vs Red Hair Pirates in sniper off/conq haki off/cook off. Things like that would be a much more digestible interaction for me
Well that didn't happen, at all. You gonna admit that you have shit takes now or will you continue running around and pretending like you know what you're talking about?
It looks like it was Beckman that caused Kidd to lose his arm and not Shanks -- which would mean that it's possible Kidd never got the chance to stand face to face with Shanks. I think that Kidd and Shanks have some type of connection to one another given how fervent Kidd has behaved in pursuit of a meeting. What if they also have a mentor/disciple relationship, but one that is far more strained due to a shared history? In that case I don't think Kidd is going to pick a fight with Shanks but instead there is going to be a major conversation to service some much needed exposition. We simply don't know much about Shanks after all this time and this would neatly slot in Kidd's past.
One thing that could indicate this theory could work is the fact that shanks wants kids poneglyph rubbings, kid also wants something on elbaf and that is the man marked by fire assuming that it is indeed Saul
Love the idea but with the way things are going and looking i don’t think a Davy back fight is possible. Remember shanks is the last person luffy wants to take down after facing all the yonkos and with that in mind I don’t know if they will ever actually fight but would love to see for sure. Also shanks and kid are not gonna just spend a whole day setting up just to fight safely especially knowing who kid is 😂 shanks also was ready to leave elbaf so again idk if a Davy back fight would happen but not a bad idea. Plus who’s to say the straw hats is going to leave egghead unscathed they might get held back heavy by the world government so with the time of them leaving egghead to make it to elbaf while kid and shanks are fighting seems like they won’t make it in time unless kid and shanks are fighting for days then maybe. But the way the story is going I just don’t know
I had a very similar analysis of the dynamic between Kidd and Shanks in this chapter. I think Oda is setting up something very interesting, he's not gonna just let Kidd have another go at Shanks and be instantly defeated even though we all assume Shanks and his crew are legions above literally everyone else in the story, let alone Kidd. Edit: aged terribly 😂
i read a fan theory before that speculated that, if corss guild ever had a davy back fight with the straw hats, Buggy would face a "swordsman" against zoro in a duel. We would expect mihawk, Only for it to be Cabaji. It then went on to talk about how it could potentially pull off a reverse Baratie, where zoro takes mihawks place and utterly thrashes Cabaji. But Cabaji being so devoted to his captain and his trust in him, would pull something similar to zoro. "why do you refuse to step back?" "Because i would lose something important, the trust of my captain, and that i would never be able to get back to where i stand right now." Imagine if, in the case of cross guild ever facing the straw hats in a davy back fight, Oda could potentially set up someone to chase zoro after he eventually takes down mihawk himself and becomes the greatest. Starting the cycle again. Because only the greatest swordsman could serve under the great captain buggy. XD That would be funny, but weirdly one piece.
Kuma is also being set up as the way for the strawhats to escape egghead island. He's on his way there and with his devil fruit he can send flying the ship with the crew away from the 100 navy ships that will inevitably surround egghead island. This escape fits perfectly with your narrative. It's a fast way of travel, so they can get to Elbaf quickly and maybe interrupt the fight, giving way to an organic development of the threeway davy fight
Dragon shows up on Egghead and helps the Strawhats escape with Vegapunk to Elbaf where they have the Davy Back Fight but it get interrupted by Blackbeard's crew coming for the poniglyphs and the World Government coming to assassinate Vegapunk, Shanks fights Blackbeard while the Strawhats take the last Poniglyph and Head straight for Lonestar and Laughtale but Imu will be waiting for them on Lonestar which is an island they have to visit because it directly leads to Laughtale. The battle between Shanks and Blackbeard will spark the full on war between supporter of the Strawhats, the Strawhat grand fleet, and SWORD vs. The Admirals, Blackbeard, & SHIELD Imu and the Gorosei will try to stop the Strawhats in Lonestar but the Revolutionary Army will help them, Blackbeard kills Shanks and catches up with the Strawhats where the final battle for the one piece happens on Laughtale
Elbaf arc summary(events not in order) Usopp defeats dorry and broggy and becomes brave warrior of the sea Full backstory of shanks and his crew, and we see the fight between him and mihawk in a flashback Shanks crew destroys kid kid crew and kid kid and killer are the only ones left alive and manage to escape to the other side of Elbaf where Loki owns that territory and plot to kill shanks Shanks trains luffy to maximize his full haki potential however it is revealed shanks has the last ponegylgh where they must face off in a wholesome Davy back fight Luffy wins and returns it back to shanks and leaves to go to lone star Kid kid in the middle of the arc creates a plan to kill shanks but it fails and he is in prison but is freed by Luffy after he wins the Davy back fight While luffy leaves,Blackbeard pirates come to Elbaf to fight shanks who he thinks has the poneglhy.this time shanks goes all out against Blackbeard but dies because Blackbeard does a dirty trick and kills him. The end
Okay am I the only person having a existential crysis realizing your original video about Elbaf and a possible Davy Back Fight between Luffy and Shanks on Elbaf is turning 5 years old this year? Fuck.
Kid isn't that important to figure so prominently in such an important meetup between Luffy and Shanks. And honestly it would kind of be anticlimactic to meet Shanks so early and to just have a low stakes davy back contest over some poneglyph rubbings. I think Luffy and Shanks won't reunite until near the end of the final war. The series will officially close with Shanks and Luffy, just as it started with them. And then the final arc will involve the post-fall of the world government epilogue
It’s crazy how just two chapters can age this video nearly into the grave. Great stuff tho!

Well...
Morj, I think you're on to the right idea but not quite. I think the best outcome would be that Kid gets defeated by Shanks and is captured and set to be killed. Then the Straw Hats show up, everything is jolly while the crews meet and everyone is reintroduced to the giants, but then Luffy hears about Kid. While not friends per say, I think Luffy wouldn't be okay with Shanks killing him and either he or Ussop challenges the Red Hair pirates to a Davy Back fight. The stakes being Shanks let's Kid go if the Straw Hats win while Luffy hands over his Road Poneglyphs if he loses.
This makes more sense since Luffy and Shanks' crews are more evenly alligned for competitions than having a three way game where it'd basically be Kid and Killer versus two well padded out crews. It'd give Ussop a chance to shine against his dad in a competition and by possibly being the one who mentions the game as a solution. And I think overall it fits the characters and puts them in a good place to end Kid's story. He'd feel completely embarrassed to have been beaten and then his life saved by Luffy, giving him the chance to finally acknowledge Luffy as his better and pull out of the race for PK. And I also believe this would be showcase to Shanks that Luffy really has the right attitude to become Pirate King. He doesn't have to kill his enemies to overcome them, but rather finds a way to best them, earn their respect, and grow further. Like Mihawk said, Luffy's greatest strength is being able to get people on his side and once Shanks sees that Luffy can get even a ruthless Captain Kid to set aside his rampaging and admit defeat with admiration, he'll know Luffy has to be the one to go to Laugh Tale and claim the One Piece.

Thank God the Davy back fight you proposed didn’t happened just because as a reader/viewer, I want to watch battles which are at stake and not something friendly.
a serious fight between luffy and shanks would be absolutely terrible
@@borsalino177 Yes, exactly.
Well this didn't age well
To be fair he did say it is likely Kid is stupid enough to just go at him and be promptly defeated so I disagree it aged badly. One of his scenarios played out, he just didn't think it was likely.

Kidd should have begged for a davy back fight
do crews exchange members every davy back fight, or was that just foxy's condition to fight?because if they exchange members, i think usopp's dad being forced to temporarily join the strawhats by usopp would be hilarious
Not another Morj L, this is what happens when you still give some slack to Kid
Feeling very bad for him for guessing it all wrong🤣
If Elbaf has Davey Back and Cross Guild shows up, Elbaf = Tournament arc
What if Kid and Law both get washed in their fights as a way to show how strong the remaining Yonko are. Them getting dominated would serve as a warning to Luffy about the challenges to come.
Hopefully Oda has Kidd show out. Have him unlock Advanced King’s Haki and improve his move set from Wano. Also show why Big Mom dodged those animal attacks from Kidd. Maybe they had Haki in them and exploded on impact? Idk, I just want a Kidd to show why Oda had plans for him.
Lol people deluding themselves into thinking Oda "has plans" for Kidd when so far dude has just taken L's in the New World (except when he helped Law take out Big Mom by pushing her once). Kidd is the definition of hitting a wall over and over, waiting until somebody tears it down, and then claiming you did 50% of the work.
@Martín Mayo As people claim he's sorta like Luffy without plot armor, but I feel like in Elbaf it'll be different for him, he may be an idiot for trying to challenge Shank's entire army but since the odds seem so highly stacked against him I feel like Oda is definitely trying to play him as the underdog and I feel like he'd do decently in a fight against Shanks (like Law vs. Blackbeard). Also people sorta forget that Kid is one of the people who defeated Big Mom, which the giants despise, so that's definitely going to play into something.
Oda doesn't care about Useless Captain Mid
Agreed. But look at all these haters in the replies smh. We’ve seen kid’s feats in Wano people just pay no attention to it because it wasn’t as flashy as everyone else… WHO ELSE IS BODY SLAMMING MOM/KAIDO at his size??? Sure as shit not Luffy or law. It took Luffy until gear 5 to match that strength. You guys just hate on kid because you’re bandwagon af. Watch once kid does something crazy, a lot of these kids attitudes are gonna change
Also I’m not saying Kid would beat shanks, I can already foresee you dweebs thinking that. That giant fleet he’s pulling up onto kid with though? I don’t think it’s gonna exists once this conflict of over
lmao the exact opposite of what morj is saying in this video is happening.
7:50 😭😂😂😂
aged like milk
Yup, so much for this theory. 1079
I love the idea of a 3 way Davey Back that turns into a lowkey training arc. Imagine the Straw Hats and Kidd pirates ask for haki training or information since they already have the ponegliffs.
unlikely it would be that sort of training. Luffy and Kid have defeated emperors. The whole point of Luffy meeting Shanks so late was that he had to be on the same level. I'm not saying both wouldn't hone their skills and get stronger through battling Shanks, they absolutely would. But I can't ever see any one of them outright asking Shanks for training. That would devalue their (and especially Luffys) current status and what they've achieved.
A Katakuri-like scenario is very possible, where they grow in strength by fighting the Red hair pirates.
It would be a beautiful way to introduce this again especially with their three personalities clash and I do believe watching shanks drink and party with Luffy would be an absolute riot like he did with mihawk even tho I'm sure shanks wouldn't do it with kid but it would pretty funny to watch them party after in good spirit
Oda legit said shut up morj this is my story not yours 😂😂 big L for morj 🙏🏼
Are you a morj hater ?

Your Shanks Davy Back Fight video got me on the Morj train long ago, hope it truly comes true because I remember how much sense it made to me back then!
Morjs ad game is getting better
NGL. Im relieved this ended up not being the case 😅
This theory sounds more like something that would happen in a One Piece movie
I would say it could be fun if Shank kills Kid, maybe Oda always had plans for Kid as he planned to kill Kid by hands of Shanks to show Shanks motives ( not necessarily fully evil but not purely good)
u were right
Genius level plot/theme comprehension n rationalization. Congrats on another outstandin vid, dis would be VERY satisfactory, but I’d still be content as long as Oda progresses the plot in a sharp way
oh with all this set up for the davy back fight i wonder if it will be revealed that the reason Kaido never went to Marineford is because he lost a Davy Back fight against Shanks. that would be pretty funny and maybe we could get more of kaido in flashbacks.
A for effort?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah never thought about it that way - Kidd has been a punching bag for 3 Yonko in total lol. He won against Big Mom but definitely took hits.
On a side note, it may not be possible for the Straw Hats to reach Elbaf by the time this potential Davy Back fight starts... Idk man, feels like we would have to resolve the Among Us situation on Egghead and we also have Kizaru and Saturn gunning for Egghead. Might be a close call, but I'm not confident the Straw Hats will reach on time.
However, if they do, I can totally see Luffy jumping at the chance to get in a Davy Back against Kidd and Shanks
Morj Spitting right now
A Davy Back fight where Shanks gets the hat back if he wins :).
I can see Blackbeard showing up right afterwards to try to steal all the pone glyph rubbings when everyone is weak/exhaused
I want so badly for this to happen. The idea of throwing Cross Guild in there as well...
Remember how freaked out the Marines were that Big Mom and Kaido were joining up? Yeah if word gets out that Luffy, Shanks and Buggy are doing a Davy Back to form the strongest crew...
Prior to that video I was thinking of a 3 way DBF between the Red Haired, Strawhat Pirates and Cross Guild and I didn't consider Kid instead or even a 4 way ..... very fun stuff indeed
I find it hilarious that Kid will sail into Elbaf soundin all cocky and tough only to challenge Shanks to a game of football.
Makes sense, now I'm even picturing the Strawhats fighting for Bartolomeo's freedom or the territory he was claiming
that Hello Fresh face editing was GOLD!!! 😆😆🤣🤣
This makes sense from the fact that Oda said Kid was always going to be part of the story.
Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!.
What if Big Mom betrayed kiado to get him out the way, she purposely let her crew stay behind
Took out two of kiados top men, ulti page one.
She told perospero she knew what she was doing and that she had a plan but we never saw the payoff for her sneaky tactics against Kaido that was definitely foreshadowed
All that plus a lot of us want to see her payoff at elbaf
Drinking game: Take a shot every time morj says davy back
A lot of people goofing on you for getting the theory wrong but everything you said made sense. If only oda actually had some meaning to writing kid as a character 😂
He did have meaning. To show off shanks.
It’s soooooo gooooooood, shanks was serious he had no reason to play with kid and i love every single second, useless captain kid.😂😂😂
idk why people expect these theorists to be prophets or something lol they're just inferring
@@conormurphy4328 could’ve and should’ve done it without undermining the whole point of kids character which was to be luffys main rival in the new world
@@MuItiASMR sweetie he was never Luffy’s rival, he was introduced hundreds of chapters/episodes into the show. He’s a minor character at best.
i definitely see rockstar joining kids crew as a result of a davy back fight, his name fits their theme so well thats its kind of on the nose.
All the Kidd slander was true.
Nigga it's shanks, nobody else could do better in the supernova

Except Luffy
At first I didn’t like this theory all too much. But the more I think about it the more I do. I didn’t like the idea of Luffy v Shanks all out war but Davey Back Fight makes all the sense to what Luffy said in the very first flashback with Shanks. He said he would assemble a crew as good as his and he’d surpass him. Pinning the Strawhats vs Red Hair Pirates in sniper off/conq haki off/cook off. Things like that would be a much more digestible interaction for me
Kidd is about to damage Shanks with a no haki bodyslam and the Shanks stans are gonna use every excuse in the book to downplay it LMAO 💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This aged well
Well that didn't happen, at all. You gonna admit that you have shit takes now or will you continue running around and pretending like you know what you're talking about?
It looks like it was Beckman that caused Kidd to lose his arm and not Shanks -- which would mean that it's possible Kidd never got the chance to stand face to face with Shanks. I think that Kidd and Shanks have some type of connection to one another given how fervent Kidd has behaved in pursuit of a meeting. What if they also have a mentor/disciple relationship, but one that is far more strained due to a shared history? In that case I don't think Kidd is going to pick a fight with Shanks but instead there is going to be a major conversation to service some much needed exposition. We simply don't know much about Shanks after all this time and this would neatly slot in Kidd's past.
And now for something completely different
One thing that could indicate this theory could work is the fact that shanks wants kids poneglyph rubbings, kid also wants something on elbaf and that is the man marked by fire assuming that it is indeed Saul
Love the idea but with the way things are going and looking i don’t think a Davy back fight is possible. Remember shanks is the last person luffy wants to take down after facing all the yonkos and with that in mind I don’t know if they will ever actually fight but would love to see for sure. Also shanks and kid are not gonna just spend a whole day setting up just to fight safely especially knowing who kid is 😂 shanks also was ready to leave elbaf so again idk if a Davy back fight would happen but not a bad idea. Plus who’s to say the straw hats is going to leave egghead unscathed they might get held back heavy by the world government so with the time of them leaving egghead to make it to elbaf while kid and shanks are fighting seems like they won’t make it in time unless kid and shanks are fighting for days then maybe. But the way the story is going I just don’t know
id be happy with the strawhats just spectating shanks vs kid having the davy back fight
Take a shot every time morj says “davy back fight”
Three way? OH MY
I’m definitely ready for a three-way
We've been hyping up a Davey Back fight since we left Wano. I really hope it happens
I want this to happen, more than 'the raid wiil fail'. Don't let us down Morj!
Divine departure
Kamusari, lmao.
BY GODA HIMSELF!
This video did not age well
I had a very similar analysis of the dynamic between Kidd and Shanks in this chapter. I think Oda is setting up something very interesting, he's not gonna just let Kidd have another go at Shanks and be instantly defeated even though we all assume Shanks and his crew are legions above literally everyone else in the story, let alone Kidd.
Edit: aged terribly 😂

Hehe
@@johnblackman6523 like milk
i read a fan theory before that speculated that, if corss guild ever had a davy back fight with the straw hats, Buggy would face a "swordsman" against zoro in a duel. We would expect mihawk, Only for it to be Cabaji. It then went on to talk about how it could potentially pull off a reverse Baratie, where zoro takes mihawks place and utterly thrashes Cabaji. But Cabaji being so devoted to his captain and his trust in him, would pull something similar to zoro.
"why do you refuse to step back?"
"Because i would lose something important, the trust of my captain, and that i would never be able to get back to where i stand right now."
Imagine if, in the case of cross guild ever facing the straw hats in a davy back fight, Oda could potentially set up someone to chase zoro after he eventually takes down mihawk himself and becomes the greatest. Starting the cycle again. Because only the greatest swordsman could serve under the great captain buggy. XD
That would be funny, but weirdly one piece.
This has been one of my favourite and most consistent theories
This is your best Hello Fresh ad integration yet 😂 talkin bout “I could be consuming One Piece” lol
Guess this is where the low tier strawhats can shine since they're incapable of doing anything else.
I like this theory. Morj has some really good theories and I'm shocked when some don't come true.
nice, loved this theory morj, it would be amazing for the story to go that way
Can we just appreciate how Morj have improved his ads 😂
well that idea died pretty fast.
That was a cool paid promotion, I loved the face cutouts lol
Kuma is also being set up as the way for the strawhats to escape egghead island. He's on his way there and with his devil fruit he can send flying the ship with the crew away from the 100 navy ships that will inevitably surround egghead island.
This escape fits perfectly with your narrative. It's a fast way of travel, so they can get to Elbaf quickly and maybe interrupt the fight, giving way to an organic development of the threeway davy fight
Bro I literally has the biggest epiphany watching your video it makes so much sense
RIP
Dragon shows up on Egghead and helps the Strawhats escape with Vegapunk to Elbaf where they have the Davy Back Fight but it get interrupted by Blackbeard's crew coming for the poniglyphs and the World Government coming to assassinate Vegapunk, Shanks fights Blackbeard while the Strawhats take the last Poniglyph and Head straight for Lonestar and Laughtale but Imu will be waiting for them on Lonestar which is an island they have to visit because it directly leads to Laughtale. The battle between Shanks and Blackbeard will spark the full on war between supporter of the Strawhats, the Strawhat grand fleet, and SWORD vs. The Admirals, Blackbeard, & SHIELD
Imu and the Gorosei will try to stop the Strawhats in Lonestar but the Revolutionary Army will help them, Blackbeard kills Shanks and catches up with the Strawhats where the final battle for the one piece happens on Laughtale
Elbaf arc summary(events not in order)
Usopp defeats dorry and broggy and becomes brave warrior of the sea
Full backstory of shanks and his crew, and we see the fight between him and mihawk in a flashback
Shanks crew destroys kid kid crew and kid kid and killer are the only ones left alive and manage to escape to the other side of Elbaf where Loki owns that territory and plot to kill shanks
Shanks trains luffy to maximize his full haki potential however it is revealed shanks has the last ponegylgh where they must face off in a wholesome Davy back fight
Luffy wins and returns it back to shanks and leaves to go to lone star
Kid kid in the middle of the arc creates a plan to kill shanks but it fails and he is in prison but is freed by Luffy after he wins the Davy back fight
While luffy leaves,Blackbeard pirates come to Elbaf to fight shanks who he thinks has the poneglhy.this time shanks goes all out against Blackbeard but dies because Blackbeard does a dirty trick and kills him.
The end
Okay am I the only person having a existential crysis realizing your original video about Elbaf and a possible Davy Back Fight between Luffy and Shanks on Elbaf is turning 5 years old this year? Fuck.
Kid isn't that important to figure so prominently in such an important meetup between Luffy and Shanks. And honestly it would kind of be anticlimactic to meet Shanks so early and to just have a low stakes davy back contest over some poneglyph rubbings. I think Luffy and Shanks won't reunite until near the end of the final war. The series will officially close with Shanks and Luffy, just as it started with them. And then the final arc will involve the post-fall of the world government epilogue
