We were talking about combating the government and succeeding... Stop ignoring context, most of the things you just listed are not combating the government and is something Garp already does as a marineRevo slander is insane. What did Dragon do? Oh, I don't know, commanded the entire army? What did the army do?
The Revolutionary Army overthrew the Sorbet Kingdom before they even became the Revolutionary Army. Then they went around fighting the World Government and aiding civilians.
Then they saved a bunch of innocent people, including children like Sabo, in Gray Terminal, from being shot to death or burned alive by the government, with Dragon and everyone then training Sabo.
Then Kuma went in and freed the Tumi kingdom.
Then Dragon was brought up at a Reverie and referred to as a threat to the World Government as a whole. Curious if this is someone who isn't doing anything.
Then Ivankov and Inazuma formed Newkama Land in Impel Down, which later lead to the turning of the tide in Impel Down and Marineford.
Then they freed Vira. Then Dragon saved Luffy, possibly twice, in Loguetown.
Then three of their lower-level officers were attacked by CP9, who killed them and 20 innocent people, which is very unfortunate, but didn't end up being a setback.
Then they freed the country of Centaurea.
Then the Revos freed all the government-owned slaves at Tequila Wolf and saved Robin, who they trained over the timeskip.
Then Sabo's group got the Flame Fruit and helped save Dressrossa and reveal Doflamingo's arms dealings.
Then, the Blackbeard Pirates attacked and destroyed the main base and they immediately came back with minimal setback.
Then they saved Lulusia from invading pirates.
Then they saved Kuma and a bunch of other slaves, fought the Admirals and a bunch of other Marines and guards, discovered the true ruler of the world, destroyed the Celestial Dragons' food supplies, declared war on them, and cut off the supply lines to Marie Geiose. Simultaneously, they caused TWELVE NATIONS to revolt against the World Government at the same time, eight of which were complete successes.
They managed to get a bit of repairs in on Kuma, but he ran away.
They're currently cutting off Marie Geiose's supply lines, attacked an underworld trading group that was sending them supplies, and someone has currently SET THE WHOLE PLACE ON FIRE, and I think it just might be the group that has a Flame user.
I suppose that is a good point.Garp on the core its a genuine good man who while has never took part at any atrocities of the WG, he also never able to either mitigate or prevent many of those events to happen. Either because those events where render hidden to most people, because he lacked the authority (at least within the WG) or he was simply not around when they happen.
And while he could have follow either Luffy or Dragon's examples, he decide to follow his own path and remain inside the system, using his fame and strength to both actually protect civilians for true evil pirates and also to make himself and example for the next generation, hoping to at least reforme the Marines within to become less extreme in their ideology and not be just puppets for the WG.
And It seen to work a bit with the existence of SWORD, and even besides that Dragon also acknowledge that the WG isn't entirely made by horrible people as Vagapunk tell him due of be a world scale organization.
which they are doing.We were talking about combating the government and succeeding...
Garp is empowering kingdoms to revolt against the World Government and actively launching attacks on the CDs?Stop ignoring context, most of the things you just listed are not combating the government and is something Garp already does as a marine.
Fighting the World Government DOES help people.Hence helping people is better than directly combating a government... Both objectively and subjectively
I feel like there's a 25% chance Oda just says "passion" and then Sanji unlocks it.Anyway, to switch topic, what motivation/drive should Sanji embrace in order to activate his conqueror's haki, as seeing the All Blue alone obviously won't be sufficiently strong?
The wish to protect all of the women in the world from oppression perhaps?![]()
Not directly and it’s only 1 of the many other problems that exists in the world, criminals, pirates, bandits and suchFighting the World Government DOES help people.
I said most of the things that aren’t directly combating WG, garp already doesGarp is empowering kingdoms to revolt against the World Government and actively launching attacks on the CDs?
They have not succeeded in their objective of overthrowing the government… hence over all these years, they (the bad leaders) still remain at the top.. and only recently do the learn the truth if I remember correctly… that’s wasted time COMPARED to garp and what he has done with his accomplishments based on their actual objectivewhich they are doing.
I agree with you. The World Government is fundamentally rotten and corrupt. I just want to clarify what I was going for. By World Government, I am referring to those actively involved from the marines and up. Although collectively the WG is incredibly evil, within the organization [from the marines to the Kings] we’ve seen that personal morality varies considerably.No. The Celestial Dragons ARE the World Government. They own it. A LITERAL DEMON runs the World Government.
They do have an army of sadists. Imu is literally turning entire populations into demons that love nothing more than to kill and eat people.
They also help with that.Not directly and it’s only 1 of the many other problems that exists in the world, criminals, pirates, bandits and such
Which happens daily around the world
"You can't fight fascism unless you instantly win, it's a waste of time. What you should do is just be a cop."That’s what garp deals with… and you don’t start any wars aswell or combat deceived justice, attacking marines that don’t know any better
Hence objectively and subjectively it’s better what garp has been doing… he achieves his objective, Dragon hasn’t.

They also help with that.
"You can't fight fascism unless you instantly win, it's a waste of time. What you should do is just be a cop."
No they don't, they prioritize fighting against the government... Everything else is side stuffThey also help with that.
Not what I said, I said what was better and who has done more in their objectives... But yes, you shouldn't fight "fascism" if you're going to waste your whole life and be unable to win when you could've easily done more good by protecting and helping people which is the main objective as a marine"You can't fight fascism unless you instantly win, it's a waste of time. What you should do is just be a cop."
Yes. Blackbeard seems to be deliberately portrayed as somebody who was severely traumatised as a child, and then drew the entirely wrong life lesson from it. Instead of "This sort of horror should not happen to anybody." he turned it into "Do it to everybody else before they do it to you."I agree with you.

What I was trying to point out that is that the structure of the WG has allowed them to be blinded to the degree of the evil they do. Most of them don’t know about Imu or the depths of the CD‘s behavior, but the evil comes from their belief in overzealous “pseudo justice”. Blackbeard and his pirates have none of the delusions of being for any moral justice like Garp or Sengoku. With that said, he and his crew have done a lot of the same types of evil as the CD, they just don’t run the system.
Sanji lock in on that La passionI feel like there's a 25% chance Oda just says "passion" and then Sanji unlocks it.
Wouldn't that be worse than some celestial dragons that are constantly taught by their parents to act the same way that they do?Yes. Blackbeard seems to be deliberately portrayed as somebody who was severely traumatised as a child, and then drew the entirely wrong life lesson from it. Instead of "This sort of horror should not happen to anybody." he turned it into "Do it to everybody else before they do it to you."![]()
kinda but it also depends on the celestial dragon, tho most are most likely like that (epitome of satanic evil tho is more like doffy and hody... Which is kinda a step above celestial dragons... As they are able to reform unlike those 2)The celestial dragons are in positions of absolute supremacist entitlement and are taking it to gleefully sadistic slavemongering and genocidal absolute tyrannical extremes. There are no excuses for that. It is the epitome of satanic evil.
true, I know, which is why I asked that some celestial dragons could be less evil than BlackbeardUnderstanding how evil and its indoctrination fundamentally work (as I indepth explored in my old story) is not remotely the same thing as making excuses for it.![]()
Bro put fascism in quotation marks for the CDsNo they don't, they prioritize fighting against the government... Everything else is side stuff
Not what I said, I said what was better and who has done more in their objectives... But yes, you shouldn't fight "fascism" if you're going to waste your whole life and be unable to win when you could've easily done more good by protecting and helping people which is the main objective as a marine
should've put "Political word" insteadBro put fascism in quotation marks for the CDs
Bro thinks One Piece isn't political?should've put "Political word" instead
Yes, one piece isn’t about politics… it just has politics in it.Bro thinks One Piece isn't political?
Yes, but the ones responsible for most of the divide and conquer indoctrination are the real world equivalents to the Celestial Dragons, the extremely far right absolutely corrupt totalitarian oligarchs and politicians who own almost all of all varieties of media.Politics in general is bad in real life. I personally just see it as a way to divide people and control them through it…
I think that's a shit take, but I can agree to disagree I guess.Yes, one piece isn’t about politics… it just has politics in it.
But even then nothing I said would mean that I said one piece isn’t political.
Politics in general is bad in real life. I personally just see it as a way to divide people and control them through it… especially Americans, they are soo obsessed about politics that even when they don’t know how to “defend” politics, they will just starting saying “EVERYTHING IS POLITICAL BTW”… it’s such a bad and sad mindset to have in my view
Soo yee, I will always say and think that one piece isn’t political because it’s about finding the treasure One Piece… having politics in it won’t change that![]()
While I don't agree, thanks for answering my question MonkeySo basically what I'm seeing is that Garp, Roger and Xebec were the ones at the top it seems in the flashback/God valley era, being equals basically
Then Xebec somehow got defeated, later on everyone also got stronger and WB grew so much that he became equals with Roger, but not just any Roger... But equal to prime Roger (Being called equal to the Pirate King)... Stated the only man who was able to fight on par with Roger, the Pirate King
So it seems like Kaido and Big Mom wasn't able to grow as much WB did, with Kaido having basically praised both Roger and Wb being at the top
![]()
Hence his "list" also puts them both above Xebec... With Xebec still being stronger than Kaido based on Shanks... Who was able to clash and stop him, who also displayed a better feat with kid
Meaning currently no one has reached even Xebec's level
This still makes the most sense to me
Wanna see what's gonna happen with the whole Imu stuff tho, that's something completely mysterious![]()
Most of what I said is stated (didn’t give everything a link), though you can still interpret things differently in the endWhile I don't agree, thanks for answering my question Monkey
And they both got stronger...?"Whitebeard got stronger and grew equal to Roger"
Whitebeard and Roger seemed like they had a good friendship and rivalry prior to Rocks' death. They clashed on God Valley and Roger was looking for him to drink with.
So in your eyes, Garp and Roger in God Valley were equal to Xebec, and thus Xebec is inferior to Prime Garp, who is superior to his God Valley self due to his trainingSo basically what I'm seeing is that Garp, Roger and Xebec were the ones at the top it seems in the flashback/God valley era, being equals basically
You made that sound kinda complicated lolSo in your eyes, Garp and Roger in God Valley were equal to Xebec, and thus Xebec is inferior to Prime Garp, who is superior to his God Valley self due to his training
So you think Prime Garp is significantly superior to Xebec?You made that sound kinda complicated lolto mebut yee
idk about significantly but superior definitely yes, Xebec journey was cut short compared to the rest of them... With only few surpassing him (3 maybe 4 people) (Xebec was already Roger's toughest opponent in the god Valley era...)So you think Prime Garp is significantly superior to Xebec?
What is there to prove LOL? Sengoku spells it out outright about God valley, Garp watches Marine ships bomb innocent civilians, then he continues to stay with the Marines for over 38 years, through Ohara, Lulusia and who knows what else in between. And yes, I do have the same view for every single marine, especially higher rank ones like Garp, who cannot pretend ignoranceProve that, and if this is your take than you would need to have the same view on every single marine for also "turning a blind eye"
Yeah, raid an enemy Yonko territory ... "supporting them and their success" what does that even mean LOL ... "The same people that will hurt and kill people" - Garp literally does the same with other Marines who do horrible atrocitiesHe literally helps them directly... Helping them raid, supporting them and their success... The same people that will hurt and kill people...
The hypocrisy from you is insane.
Oh hello!! None of this is anything Garp the dog has ever done or will ever doWe were talking about combating the government and succeeding... Stop ignoring context, most of the things you just listed are not combating the government and is something Garp already does as a marine
The main objective, as a marine is to fulfill the wishes of their CD overlords. That's it, and if you can't see that plain fact, well then, I'm afraid you're blinder than Ray CharlesNot what I said, I said what was better and who has done more in their objectives... But yes, you shouldn't fight "fascism" if you're going to waste your whole life and be unable to win when you could've easily done more good by protecting and helping people which is the main objective as a marine
LMAO don't pull this faux high ground BSYee either bro is rage baiting or it's something personal
hope you get better from the hate that you have in your heart tho![]()
