One Piece Chapter 1054: "Flame Emperor" (Official Release)

[Antvasima]

Well, I am still not bloodthirsty enough to want an ally of Luffy severely mutilated for being an idiot. It could also cause serious problem for an alliance between Shanks and Luffy.

If Kidd actually attacked and tried to kill Shanks, it was a much more validated response.

He's probably just gonna knock him out and beat him in a fist fight or something. I don't see Shanks being super serious and using his sword and advanced haki on him or anything.

 

[Antvasima]

Yes, and if it was really blatant that Bartolomeo set up the Straw Hat flag or is part of Luffy's grand fleet, I primarily don't think that Shanks seems stupid enough to completely mutilate an ally, and risk to alienate Luffy.

 

[Eseseso]

Speaking of Kidd, I wonder how he'll react when he sees Shanks?

[Antvasima]

Speaking of Kidd, I wonder how he'll react when he sees Shanks?

He is already angry at Luffy, so definitely not well, which could be a serious problem.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Who said those lines? I believe them 100% but I just wanna know

 

[DaMonkeMan]

He is already angry at Luffy, so definitely not well, which could be a serious problem.

I believe Shanks could beat him, honestly. As we learn more about him I'm beginning to believe Shanks might be on par with big mom and kaidou honestly.

 

[KingTempest]

Ace novel
First one was one of the enemies of Ace who is a credible source, as he gave them the name of Shanks' HQ and Skull (Ace's crewmate and basically his informant) verified it.

Second one is Skull and the narrator

 

[Antvasima]

Yes, but Kidd recruiting Bartolomeo in a new "people with legitimate grudges" fleet is not good. They would have been very useful allies.

 

[ByAsura]

I don't think he'd sever Bart's arm. I bet he'll mangle his jaw.

 

[KingTempest]

Wanna see how he got past that damn barrier

 

[Antvasima]

I don't think he'd sever Bart's arm. I bet he'll mangle his jaw.

I hope so. Bartolomeo would feel incredibly betrayed if his idol buddies up with somebody who completely mutilated him.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

I hope so. Bartolomeo would feel incredibly betrayed if his idol buddies up with somebody who completely mutilated him.

Lmao that's kinda his fault that Shanks did that. Not like Luffy sent Shanks to beat his ass or something

 

[Antvasima]

Well, Shanks completely overreacting against a crew member of Luffy would be his own fault and possibly seriously screw things up for their future collaboration.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Well, Shanks completely overreacting against a crew member of Luffy would be his own fault and possibly seriously screw things up for their future collaboration.

Overreacting? I'm pretty sure burning his flag means people think it's not his territory, then everyone would invade it since supposedly an emperor isn't guarding it anymore. So he just put an entire island in jeopardy because he was an idiot.

 

[Antvasima]

I suppose that is a good point.

 

[KingTempest]

Well, Shanks completely overreacting against a crew member of Luffy would be his own fault and possibly seriously screw things up for their future collaboration.

Burning flags are one of the most disrespectful things you could do.
Remember when Luffy burned the WG's flag and declared war.
Ace burned Whitebeard's flag and they strolled on him. I'd expect no less from Shanks

 

[Antvasima]

Well, Ace was spared by Whitebeard, so I hope that Shanks just significantly beats up Bartolomeo.

 

[KingTempest]

Whitebeard had pity on him + he cares a lot for people.

The only showings we have of Shanks is traumatizing people and ripping off arms.

I share the same sentiment, I hope Shanks shows pity, but what I know is that Shanks is gonna take action

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Burning flags are one of the most disrespectful things you could do.
Remember when Luffy burned the WG's flag and declared war.

Yup. And they had Akainu (he isn't as strong as Shanks but still ) try and literally vaporize him. Now imagine what Shanks could do when disrespected like that..

 

[Antvasima]

I suppose so, and Bartolomeo has some history of quite vicious acts himself, but it could seriously mess up any future Luffy and Shanks alliance if Shanks slaughters Bartolomeo and his crew, especially right before he meets with Luffy while Kidd is also in attendance.

 

[Antvasima]

That said, Shanks' entire introduction arc was about him not caring if people severely disrespect him, but that he gets mad if others disrespect his friends, and if somebody potentially endangers an area under his protection, even if it is done through sheer stupidity, that might count.

 

[BottleBot]

Seriously though wtf happened to Fujitora if Sabo still escaped? Did they just decide to let them go because they're maybe not actual villains s and have some good moral in them?.or something else?

Kuma helped them.

 

[WrongIdea21]

Shanks' emotions are very difficult to predict, even he doesn't show a smile to Ace, Mihawk, even WB if there's no Luffy as a topic of conversation with him and he wouldn't hesitate to draw a sword at those who disagree with him.
We don't know what Shanks' motives have been and that makes him very dangerous I wouldn't be surprised If Shanks later will try to restrain Luffy from overturning the world at the EOS.

But still he was helpless in front of Yonko Buggy.

Tbf anyone is helpless against Yonkou Buggy besides like 5 people. The only guy who wasn't helpless was Luffy, as Buggy didn't feel like clapping his cheeks at the time and wanted to spare him and see if he could really succeed at his dream.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Kuma helped them.

Someone might have already said that but thanks a lot for answering either way.

Sounds good to me tbh.
Luffy and Shanks just being buddies while going after the same thing is boring/predictable

Luffy is Buggy natural Enemy but they're friends now.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Luffy is Buggy natural Enemy but they're friends now.

I just wanna see Go D. Usopp vs Buggy D. Clown

 

[Mr.Cinos15]

Summary is out.

 

[Mr.Cinos15]

Whooo boi, this is definitely a heavy chapter, sheesh!

Greenbull vs Scabbards, he talks about his philosophy and Yamato and Momo intervene.

The Red Hair pirates that know Luffy reaaaaally wanna see him again except for Shanks, who instead wants to deal with Barto and then join in on the race for the One Piece. We even get the flashback to when the Red Hair Pirates took the Gomu Gomu.

Then we have a scene between Akainu, Kizaru, and an officer called Kurouma (real name Tensei) and they're talking about really important stuff. Also Sabo is being praised like a god by the world and we are freaking witnessing the beginning of a brand new era, an era of revolution!

 

[Jibz]

If Sabo dies what is Luffy finna do? Moment he steps up there Akainu is making sure the weak links are taken hostage and then cripples Luffy’s ability to do anything.

 

[KingTempest]

Shanks boutta go whoop Barto
Sabo killed Cobra
Ryokugyu wants him dead

Luffy boutta go off

 

[Marlinmarley]

Last Road to laugh tale says that gear 5th become stronger as he laughs more and more, interesting

 

[DaMonkeMan]

Planet level Luffy?

 

[Magmag]

Planet level Luffy?

More like wall level if someone is killed infront of him.

Not relevant for this thread bro.

If previously Shanks would get his mood when talking about Luffy, now Shanks is no longer doing that. Shanks now fully views Luffy as an opponent in the competition to get One Piece.
If not for the reunion with Luffy in wano for now, then what is the purpose of Shanks coming to Wano? Poneglyphs?
Robin?
Pluton?
I think the idea behind it will be so interesting ( a Lit of theory would come).

Ryokugyu is Logia Captain William Vangeance and He talking about Social Hierarchies and World Government positions. Did Oda read Aristotle's philosophy?
Momonosuke looks like he will meet Shanks when he takes Ryokugyu away this is a good timing.

Outside world really in a mess and at that Moment that Akainu knew, He ****** up.

 

[DaMonkeMan]

You mean if someone he cares about is killed in front of him? Also I suspect he's gotten mentally stronger against things like that. Plus that's not going to happen in a 1v1 lol.
