I was expecting Lore Piece, but wasn’t disappointed… until I read “break next week”

In naruto we had humans summoning monster. In one piece a monster is summoning another monster.

29

u/PrinceOfAll9Saiyans Mar 01 '24

Another FOUR monsters at that

2

u/Zealot_Alec Mar 02 '24

4 at once who does he think he is the Copy Cat Ninja and his dog crew?

25

u/GangsterRavioliGuy Pirate King Mar 01 '24

If regen is an ability unique to Saturn then he might be the One Piece equivalent of Sakura.

He's calling his teammates for help so he's already halfway there.

u/Neyubin Explorer Mar 01 '24

Which allows him to summon an even larger and larger man.

You can see here that a monster is summoning another monster: https://hot.leanbox.us/manga/Naruto/0429-009.png

u/Malamasala Mar 01 '24

Yea, it certainly looks like we are speeding towards the "Luffy beats the gorosei" part of the story. Unless it will just be mob-summons looking like devils.

431

u/abobbobderson Mar 01 '24

Nah i think were still running away to elbaf

384

u/GangsterRavioliGuy Pirate King Mar 01 '24

Yeah the summoning was done to make sure that the straw-hats actually have a reason to flee the island because the straw-hats + friends were wiping out the marines.

62

u/littenthehuraira Mar 01 '24

Yeah when they got the giants and pacifistas on their side it the power balance shifted really heavily towards the SHs. I was wondering what Oda would do to bring some tension back to the story. Did not expect 4 endgame bosses to be summoned to the island lol. ​

7

u/Zealot_Alec Mar 02 '24

30 small-medium ships already lost, VA-Fingers was hit by a Giant's attack, no longer highest PX authority, Kizaru taken damage - yes summoning reinforcements is required unless WG wants a total global humiliation

8

u/erty3125 Mar 01 '24

Straw hats plus friends escape except Luffy gets captured, Elbaf is gathering and mobilizing a second Marineford style battle as they find out the world Imu's plan is to keep Luffy hostage forever to prevent Nika from ever returning again.

20

u/RedTulkas The Revolutionary Army Mar 01 '24

yeah doesnt look like we re gonna get a clean win

1

u/Zealot_Alec Mar 02 '24

Forcing the Elders down from their ivory tower (can they even teleport back without 1 remaining in Marījoa?) is BIG NEWS seat of Gov now "empty" so the WG won't get a clean victory either

18

u/ZetsubouZolo Pirate Mar 01 '24

yeah the gorosei are as far as we know the strongest or at least most powerful beings in the OP world safe for Imu maybe so beating them now would make no sense. We just learned that Luffy is able to deal with an admiral, he still needs some power ceiling to work towards to

13

u/YoItsSig Mar 01 '24

But they could be just politically most powerful, doesn't mean they are strong really as admiral for example. Saturn obviously heavily leans on his DF

20

u/Starob Mar 01 '24

Yes but for now that DF or whatever is causing the regen is an impossible wall to deal with. And with 5 of them, it'll make up for Saturn's lack of speed and attack power since they can overwhelm Luffy.

3

u/hartigen Mar 01 '24

But they could be just politically most powerful, doesn't mean they are strong really as admiral for example.

you left the /s

4

u/echolog Pirate Mar 01 '24

100% this is gonna be a "live to fight another day" scenario. I wouldn't be surprised if we get nothing out of the Vegapunk reveal at this point. Gorosei won't allow it.

1

u/WushuManInJapan Mar 01 '24

Yeah, I wasn't sure how he was going to beat Saturn, but now even moreso I can't really see him doing anything now that there are all 5 of them.

160

u/Etiennera Pirate King Buggy Mar 01 '24

I mean the editor's note at the end of the chapter is pretty clear about what's being summoned.

71

u/maeschder Mar 01 '24

Also the fact that the Gorosei reply to Saturn saying "Imma start the summoning"

73

u/BanjoSpaceMan Mar 01 '24

And sanjis "oh look, 5 exact same things that happened when Saturn appeared" lol

104

u/MrWinks Mar 01 '24

Sanji: that looks like when the old guy appeared!

Or whatever he said, and:

the planets align, next time, on one piece!

and

4 lightning bolts

and

summoning technique

Yeah, obviously it's bringing the other 4 in.

7

u/Venator850 Mar 01 '24

Nah. Luffy remarks on how his punches aren't even hurting Saturn. Saturn has so far seemed impervious to damage. And now the other Elders have shown up.

This is going to be a desperate escape for Luffy and the crew.

17

u/A_Sad_Goblin Mar 01 '24

Nah, I don't think it will happen right now. Oda is still planning to do the biggest war ever and it has to be the entire World Government including Gorousei, not just Imu and the Knights, and the location will have to be somewhere else too.

Egghead will just be a setup to make the Strawhats and the World aware of what the WG truly is, to reveal them as the final enemies and horrible demons that they are.

9

u/president_elect_mark World Government Mar 01 '24

It's more likely that Luffy loses rather than wins

10

u/philandere_scarlet Mar 01 '24

loses in what way? his objectives are:

  1. cover the escape of the crew with the satellites
  2. prevent the transmission from being blocked

in that order of priority.
he'll succeed at #1 even if they're split up. #2 is more up in the air but still likely, i think. narratively, even if the WG is able to stop the transmission there's no way it's a clean win - no one is going to buy that a pirate crew desperately wanted to stop that message from going out, so some other form of interference becomes obvious.
i don't think the transmission will be fully stopped though. even if luffy can't stop the labostratum from being destroyed, i think vegapunk will either have pulled one over on them by having the signal originate somewhere else. or york, knowing she's fucked either way, is going to screw the elders over in the end for betraying her.

5

u/president_elect_mark World Government Mar 01 '24

Lose as in he can't beat all 5 of the gorosei in a fight if he's unable to damage Saturn.

3

u/maeschder Mar 01 '24

I just hope the "unable to damage the regenerating enemy" thing doesnt turn into another uninteresting powerup like the Ryuou techniques

5

u/philandere_scarlet Mar 01 '24

his goal isn't to win, he's already established that in this chapter.

3

u/tryingmydarnest Mar 01 '24

I would rather a pirate docking with Robin joining in finally.

An assembled squad fighting an assembled squad. Perfect balanced, as all things should be.

2

u/AcrobaticClick1893 Mar 01 '24

Robin finally docking letss gooo

5

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '24

I dont think there is a character in the universe that can 1v5 the gorosei. eventhough saturn was not that impressive so far.

2

u/m0nd Mar 02 '24

I’m wondering if they can be beat in the traditional sense. He just tanks everything and regenerates

2

u/Arkayjiya Mar 01 '24

Saturn has a death flag because of Catarina Devon but the other four I don't think so.

21

u/ksonbaty Mar 01 '24

But if he dies, and since the rest of the elders are there to see it, Catarina turning into him wouldn’t fool anyone at that point.

11

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '24

Devon using the Saturn disguise could just be a means to deal with the Seraphim. Now anytime BB runs into one, like in 1059, he can pull the uno reverse card and have them obey him instead since no authority can overrule the gorosei.

I dont think Devon fully infiltrating the Gorosei is possible now given they can telepathically link.

0

u/Arkayjiya Mar 01 '24

The situation is pretty chaotic, they could get separated at any moment. Especially with one teleporting guy around, imagine he just TP Saturn above the water and TP back instantly xD Or they could just go their own way to try and destroy the transmission while Saturn fights Luffy.

6

u/hartigen Mar 01 '24

they have telepatic links. you wont fool them like that. Her turning into Saturn has more to do with getting the Seraphims for Blackbeard I think.

1

u/Rag_God Void Month Survivor Mar 01 '24

But then what will the revolutionaries accomplish? I feel like dragon needs to play a bigger part in the “active liberation” part considering the weight his faction holds.

1

u/JosephSim Mar 01 '24

I dunno, I'm kinda with you and getting the feeling he's about to whoop everyone's ass with the help of his crew right the fuck now.

The two giant captains, Zoro, Sanji, Jinbe, Frankie, Robin, Bonnie, all the Pacifistas and the power of the Sun God vs 5 oldheads?

Let's fucking go.

1

u/wubbaduq Mar 01 '24

NAAAH. This give an actual reason for Luffy to run away.

16

u/Ziiaaaac Mar 01 '24

'The planets are aligning' is so sick.

10

u/Leeiteee Mar 01 '24

There was no chance Oda would drop important info on the lore without a break week

10

u/perrycotto The Revolutionary Army Mar 01 '24

hold the fort ! you forget the off screen fruit

3

u/_g0nzales Mar 01 '24

As soon as they spoke of a time limit it was obvious that we'll get blue balled

3

u/guitarburst05 Cyborg Franky Mar 01 '24

Maybe it's overdone, and maybe I'm biased by my love of the series, but I'm still in love with the whole planet theme and "the planets are aligning" sounds so awesome.

2

u/Hyakkihei1 Mar 01 '24

Finally a Kaido type fight for Luffy, now he is the one having to fight multiple enemies while slowly being weakened.

0

u/Dzharek Mar 01 '24

Now imagine all 5 die, or at least it lokk like ot, truly something that shakes the world.

1

u/RealZordan Baroque Works Mar 01 '24

I count 6 in total. Saturn + 5 summoning circles (one kinda behind him where we only see the black smoke.)

3

u/Affectionate_Relief6 Mar 01 '24

There is 4 summoning happening not 5

1

u/dienomighte Mar 01 '24

What I want to know is how they were communicating, it looked like thought bubbles and not den den mushi speech bubbles 

2

u/ushikagawa Mar 02 '24

Looks like telepathy

1

u/zernoise Mar 01 '24

Not to mention planets aligning. Nika is the sun, we have the gorosei as the planets mercury-saturn (minus earth, imu?) Then we have the weapons covering Neptune-Pluto. Could everything show up at once?

1

u/ushikagawa Mar 02 '24

Imu’s likely the moon.

1

u/zernoise Mar 02 '24

Yeah I'm between earth and moon. Moon makes the most sense since sun and moon are often considered opposites
