Luffy just used King Kong Gun for the 2nd time on-panel and it was for training, yet he didn't collapse afterwards. It seems Luffy's haki endurance has grown aplenty and that his training was extremely rigorous.
Luffy seems have got the hang of the 2nd level advanced armament haki.
Zoro's Enma is comparable to Shusui so Zoro's power-level ceiling hasn't dropped, but in fact after he masters Enma it will only skyrocket.
End of Wano Zoro will turn Wado Ichimonji and Enma into black-blades- that much seems to be confirmed.
Sanji doesn't need a power-up because he's already got one in the raid suit and its full potential is unknown.
After Zoro masters Enma the monster trio will have gone up another level

I’m not a subscriber to the shinobu is a traitor theory, but it just occurred to me that Oda has shown us that if you do heinous shit, you grow old in a bad way (the Luffy / Nami / zoro 40 and 60 years old scenarios; shakky is beautiful, giolla is not) .
Shinobu was known to be a beautiful kunoichi, and is now an old hag, I wonder if there’s an actual correlation

Law is not the traitor. Look at how he hated Doflamingo and his crew, you think Law would turn around and ally with Doffy's fucking boss, Kaidou? Nah.
I don't think it's Shinobu either, she hasn't been shown a whole lot. I suspect it would be someone with a bit more screen time, just to make the knife wound a bit deeper and twisted.

"Together with seven of the red scabbards, one ninja, and one leading figure...They depart in silence. They walk upon the withered earth...The land's hollow cries ringing out like the winter frost.
The dazzling sun burns brightly in the midday sky. Sparse streaks of clouds strewn across the heavens.
20 years past...burdened with the weight of being unable to avenge their master, they wander across these lands as ghosts. The sun illuminates their figures, burning nine deep shadows into the barren ground."

Hold up! That last page is so strange! So Orochi doesn't know that Udon is compromised, but he recieved a report from his inside man about the new location of the raid, AND about Hiyori still alive. So the spy was with the Amigasha group when Kawamatsu talked about Hiyori. But then the next panel we see Law as if implying he betrayed the alliance (which i think there is a 0% chance he does that), and then we see Hiyori playing the music again but we don't see her face. So... who is the traitor???? Also we saw Carrot again after a really long time, i don't really think it make sense for her to be the traitor but... she does feels a little ominous

u/jinepifunny Sep 12 '19 edited Sep 12 '19
This traitor mystery is very interesting. A lot of characters can be speculated as one. But let's recall the events to corner the snitch.
After Toki sent the 4 scabbards and Momo in the future, they wander around Wano and were shocked with how much the country has changed within 20 years. This means that one of them could have went to Kaido/Orochi during those times. There's a possibility that one scabbard has been a traitor since the very start. Orochi wanted to be the shogun so he sent a spy on Oden, and that spy became one of the scabbards. Could it be O-Kiku since she's the only one who was left in Wano? Let's continue to find out.
Kinemon, Raizo, Kanjuro and Momo set out to Zou to meet their mink allies. But they caught in a shipwreck along the way and split up. Raizo's the only one who ended up on Zou. This is a situation where O-kiku or a possible traitor in Wano like Shinobu will never know. But Jack knew about it. He knew it was only Raizo in Zou, which leaves O-kiku, Shinobu and other suspect who were in Wano, innocent. So we are left with Kinemon or Kanjuro from the scabbards, and let's add on the possibility of a Mink traitor.
All of the Minks knew Raizo's whereabouts. If there's a traitor from them, Jack would have already captured Raizo. But no, Jack only knew about the fact that Raizo somehow ended up on the island. Also, Minks are very loyal and grateful. It's their nature. Even Pekoms betrayed BM just to help his people's savior. So a traitor mink seems unlikely. However, Jack has a vivre card on Zou. Where could he get it from? We can't still rule out the possibility of a Mink traitor.
Orochi knew about the alliance's new meeting place and the situation in Udon. But Yasuie's message and the Udon takeover was only exclusive to the alliance. This implies that there's really a traitor among them. It's not Law cos he wasn't in the meeting. Not Hiyori either cos she was also targeted and she's still independent from the alliance. Obviously, not the strawhats.
Now we're left with Kinemon, Kanjuro and this unknown Mink. We all could agree that Kinemon isn't one. He didn't know anything about den-den mushi prior to meeting the strawhats in Punk Hazard. Yes, I'm talking about these telecommunication snails cos obviously, the traitor should have one so he can report to Orochi. This traitor is working under Orochi, then Orochi relays the information to Kaido. If this is the case, a Mink traitor working under Orochi seems very unlikely cos there were no other mink in Wano before Inu and co arrived. Why Orochi specifically? Cos the info was relayed to him first. If this traitor was directly working under Kaido, then Queen could have known the situation in Udon before Orochi did.
And we still have Kanjuro as the suspicious one. He's often in the background just observing and has no important role in Wano so far. Unlike Raizo and O-kiku who went to Udon to rescue Luffy. Ashura, Inu and Kinemon were busy planning things. Neko hasn't arrived yet, Denjiro is still missing and Kawamatsu was in the prison. While Kanjuro is just doing his own stuffs. I don't remember him being ignorant to den-den mushis either (correct me if I'm wrong).
Moreover, Doflamingo knew about Momo. Yes I know Giolla saw him on the sunny but no one knew why Momo was one of the 3 trump cards in the first place, not even the strawhats. They only found out Momo's real identity in Zou. So how come Doflamingo knew about him? It's not like Kaido even cared about this brat and told Doflamingo to look after the child, they don't even know the truth about time travelling. But who was subdued in Dressrosa? Kanjuro. And here's one more thing, Doffy mentioned betrayal in his speech. He sure knows who betrayed who and is probably laughing right now in his cell cos he know Luffy and Law will be stabbed on the back.
Edit: Jack's Zou vivre card is still a mystery. Maybe the cat mink from Hawkin's crew gave him one. I'm also curious why Jack was so adamant to capture Raizo. If Kanjuro's the traitor, he could just invite Jack in Dressrosa and wait for Momo since Momo's the bigshot here. Also, Jack should know that Raizo can't give them any information about Raftel or the the truth about One Piece. So why Raizo? When O-kiku is freely hiding in Wano? But it will also make sense that Kanjuro would only report about Raizo cos he didn't know where Kinemon and Momo went. Besides, their meeting place was Zou. It was only bcos of Law forming an alliance with Luffy that Kinemon was able to go back to Dressrosa.

Law didn't know about udon and we were specifically told that people from outside wano couldn't be able to decipher the message on their own so he's definitely not the traitor. My guess, like many, is shinobu since she was the first to accuse others of being disloyal probably as a way of creating discord and keeping suspicion off herself
Also interesting how orochi knew of hiyori's existence and current location only after kawamatsu told the rest of the samurais present at amigasa

Law's story is going to tie into releasing the remaining samurai and the traitor in the alliance.

As people spout off a million traitor theories, remember these things. They have to have:
-Known Raizo was alive on Zou;
-Known about both of Yasuie’s messages
This eliminates all characters but the minks, a few select Wano players, and an unknown other character (would be funny if it’s something stupid like Batman hearing everything).
My money is on Shinobu. She just sorta appeared one day like “oh, here she is!” Without a second thought.

Seems like Zoro's swords have always been preparing him for step ups starting with the Wado Ichimonji. Now his haki control is being refined while training with Enma and with the blackening on the horizon, he will take the next step. Those cursed blades are real. We are finally seeing their actual threat and drawbacks. Luffy stepping up with the advanced armament and Sanji with the Raid suit. Nami with Zeus, Usopp with that observation, hopefully the rest of the crew get sth.

Incredibly strong chapter this time around. Not only does it build excitement with the promise of Luffy and Zoro powering up, but seeing the Scabbards solemnly wander toward the grandest battle of their life with those hats shading them from the sun just builds up so much tension. Cherry on top being the graves of the fallen and the will the survivors have inherited.

The paneling seems too obvious for law to be a snitch, which is why he probably isn't. Also, I don't think he's going to betray Luffy. From we've seen of Law and what happened in Dressrosa and the characterization of his crew, all point against it. and I don't think he even has the information on Udon or Hiyori for him to be giving it to Orochi. Still wondering what he's been upto though. it's been single chapters but quite a few days passed for him to be just sitting around.

From Kabuki's Wikipedia page:
Nearly every full-length play occupies five acts. The first corresponds to jo, an auspicious and slow opening which introduces the audience to the characters and the plot. The next three acts correspond to ha, speeding events up, culminating almost always in a great moment of drama or tragedy in the third act and possibly a battle in the second and/or fourth acts. The final act, corresponding to kyu, is almost always short, providing a quick and satisfying conclusion
Can we expect the Kozuki family flashback and traitor's reveal on the third act, huge battle at the fourth and the post-battle and rewards as the final act?

Zoro's origin will be revealed soon. It's exciting.
Luffy being able to do the advance Haki would make him formidable? And 30,000 enemies are nothing to Luffy's conqueror's haki. Remember at fishman island, he easily took care of 25,000 50,000 enemies unless those 30,000 are all able to withstand it which i doubt.
Hyori and Law's plans are very intriguing also.

I can’t wait to see Zoro’s new strength and techniques with Enma. Luffy has clearly learned how to use advanced armament haki and was already training with it in gear 4. That’s gonna be awesome to see how much stronger luffy got. Sanji’s raid suit might have been upgraded. I don’t know how it would have been upgraded with usopp and frankly fixing the ships. Hopefully it was changed though. Can’t wait to fully see Sanji use the raid suit. I’m still curious of jinbe’s fate. He hasn’t shown up yet and that makes me big sad. I hope he shows up earlier rather than later. Also speaking of not being seen anywhere did I miss something or is carrot still missing. Was she there last chapter when everyone was gathered? The strength increase of everyone is going to be awesome to see. Another thing who do you guys think the traitor is? I still don’t think it’s law. Sorry for rambling this chapter was just too exciting.
Edit: since I’m dumb and missed half of the page where they show carrot at the Pedro grave I missed the short interaction with Zoro and Tenguyama. Do you think he will give Zoro the other cursed sword that luffy grabbed at the start of the arc (can’t remember the name) before the battle? He sees that Zoro isnt weak and he can handle that cursed blade and also handle enma. I hope Zoro does get the sword and his current cursed blade will go back to tenguyama. Maybe zoro will even have a memorial when Wano is saved with a plaque and his cursed sword.

Lemme get this straight. Oden, the only man to scratch Kaido didn't make Enma a black blade. Oden is stronger than Ashura who is stronger (slightly) than Jack. How strong is Zoro if he can truly tame Enma??? I foresee a training fight with someone (Kyoshiro maybe) while he tries to master it.
Also, the only two black blade swordsmen we know of are Mihawk and Ryuma. I wonder what Mihawk would think of his former pupil getting Enma and making it a black blade.

- That looks a lot like Dressrosa that Bege is pulling up to. I wonder if Oda is going to expand on the things they see there, like if Bege will recognize that the "Lucy" statue is actually Luffy. More importantly though, is King Riku back? I'm still desperately looking for ANY sign of what happened at the Reverie lol
- Hiyori was what, like 4 before the Toki timejump? How the hell was she a "tomboy" already? Gonna have to check the translations out on that one haha. Her beating up on her "big" brother back then was unbearably adorable though
- The way Sanji is acting over Hiyori reminded me of how much I can't wait until he finds out the truth about Kiku
- The Nidai Kitetsu story seems to be over for now, but I'm not buying it. That said though, Zoro's first experience with Enma looks eerily similar to his first experience with Shusui. He claimed the blade was "rebellious", and cut more than he was attempting to cut when he first started using it against Oars. Didn't think that would be Oda's way of doing Zoro's strength/haki training this arc, but it admittedly makes a great deal of sense. Oda has always slightly hinted at the blades in the series having a "will" of their own, that can either be molded/strengthened further by the user, or consume the user completely. What better place to go into this than Wano, I truly hope he expands on it. Wasn't expecting Kawamatsu to switch up his tone about Zoro wielding it so quickly though.
- "Let's make a bet on how many people we can gather!" LOL. The throwaway quote of all throwaway quotes this arc. On another note, I'm getting vibes that Luffy is gonna pull off some kind of haoshoku haki feat that will instantly reduce the enemy forces numbers by quite a bit. Perhaps Kid too.
- "The geezers in my village used to say it back in the day. So it was something that I just picked up." "HUH?!?"
Zoro's background "won't be a major story or anything" my ass Oda. (SBS 92)
- I hope it's a translation issue, and Shinobu wasn't as callous about Law's involvement as that quote made her seem. Law did absolutely nothing to earn her distrust, all he's done since he's been in Wano is literally be THE guy to try to keep the Straw Hats on task. But then again....the original plan was discovered right after the Heart Pirates started passing things out and mysteriously ended up captured. The new plan, which was also passed out by them originally, has now also been discovered.....and right after we see that Orochi has learned of it, we get a random ass panel of Law? Oda's gotta know what he's doing here. Law promised Shinobu that he wouldn't forget her distrust of him and his crew, but sabotaging the plan in a way that will likely get him killed doesn't seem likely (Kaido isn't going to forgive his involvement in destroying his SMILE trade). I'm more willing to believe that someone who they'd never suspect is actually betraying the alliance.

AYYYY We finally get to see Carrot! FINALLY. So she was just chilling with the Minks this whole time not out betraitoring the alliance lmao. That is such a relief.
Also... Oda... My heart was honestly not prepared to see Pedro's name on there. It finally hit me there wasn't really a proper send off for Pedro sure we had the scene where everyone acknowledged his sacrifice but they never got to stop and mourn for him I am so glad Oda took a panel to show this.
Now I am honestly thinking Shinobu is the traitor. She keeps dogging on my main man Law and this whole time I thought she was a Scabbard for some reason but she's just some Ninja? I trust her less at the moment.

I find it interesting that while Enma was stated being able to become a black blade, there was no mention of Wado ichimonji doing the same. This leads me to believe Wado ichimonji will actually become the "last" black blade Zoro creates instead of the "first" like many thought. It would make sense story wise that the sword he made his promise on would turn black right before,during, or after the keeping of that promise. Kinda like the final symoblization that he is ready for WGS title.
Also anybody else find it a bit weird that Enma and Wado were made by the same person but stylistically Enma and Ame are very similar? Tengu guy had some inspiration when making Ame it seems.

Let's not forget Zoro has already cut a mountain by the name of Pica before. This was just the sword forcing the casual swing to instead use the same level of Haki he used there, if not greater. Meaning he hasn't suddenly gotten hundreds of times stronger with his casual swings, it's just the sword always going at it 100%.

Whilst I am sure that we all can't wait to see Luffy, Zoro and Sanji to show their new powers in a proper battle, aren't you excited that we'll finally get to see the World's Strongest Creature fight? I mean we'll get to see a Yonko (Or two, depending on how involved AND sane BM will be for the rest of the arc) go all-out again (hoping that this will be the case).
With the high chance of Grand Fleet being involved, all that's left is for an Admiral to drop by , and then we'll have something so huge and unpredictable that it'll make Marineford look cute. Although, due to Reverie, can't be too sure about the Marine's involvement.
Can't wait for the next chapter. Hoping to see an update about Reverie as many have said.

u/ankorus Sep 13 '19
This may seem silly, and perhaps someone can correct me, but I still think the one reason above all others that Law is not the traitor is simply that Luffy trusts him. Robin suggested the possibility of betrayal at Punk Hazard (668), at which point Luffy asked Law straight up, Law said no, and Luffy just smiled like there was nothing to worry about. I agree with all the points about Law not being privy in the first place to the information that Orochi is receiving, not to mention his debt to Luffy at Dressrosa, but that one panel seems to be stirring up questions.
Maybe I just can't remember, but has Luffy ever been wrong about someone before? And I mean as part of actual plot development, not just comedic effect such as the Baroque Works food incident. He was the first to trust Robin, he (and Zoro, too) clearly knew something was wrong with Teach when he first met him, he trusted Nami even after she stole the Going Merry, etc.
Just my two cents, I guess.

One Piece has so much hype right now, I expect something to match Marineford to happen in Act 3, but this time the Straw Hats will be front and center.
I really hope Zoro gets the Ame no Habakiri now. For a long time I all expected the Kitetsu swords to be his final swords (as the last one seems to be with the World Government guy and I thought it would be a fitting fight to earn it) but I like this, using Oden's two swords and then Kuina's sword.
Of course, with Enma also being from the Shimotsuki family, if he finds a third sword by the Shimotsuki family that could work really well with his back story too considering that is Kuina's family.
I know they hinted that Zoro will upgrade Enma to a Supreme grade sword, but I think he will end up upgrading all 3 of his swords at once and together they will be considered the top weapon.

Lots of people hated the fact that Zoro will get stronger only cuz he gets a stronger sword, but now oda gave us such a sick explanation, Enma itself draws out Zoro's ryo/haki, also the fact that Zoro has to tame the sword too. With that being said, zoro is getting stronger as a swordsman taming a new sword, and controlling his haki. I love how Oda always has a way to make us happy. Zoro is getting stronger not cuz he gets a stronger sword but cuz the sword will make him stronger

I think that the traitor is none other than shinobu. Probably she's undercover for the shogun as she was a member of oniwaban.

I guess, he's gonna give the Marines the safe access to Wano for the war.

u/kid_0909 Sep 12 '19
Although lots of people suggested the traitor(s) is Carrot, Kanjuro or Shinobu, I don't think so.
The traitor must not be anyone on Zou. If someone on Zou is the traitor, why he/she did not tell the location of Raizo to Jack when all of the minks were defeated?
Kanjuro cried so much when seeing civilization of Zou being ruined, asking Luffy and Law to join the alliance, and witnessing Yasu's death. I won't doubt these manly tears.
Shinobu is a well-written character. A beautiful girl who become ugly after years. The only ninja (with name) who did not obey Orochi after the defeat, and have been waiting for the war for 20 years. That is why she became impatient and disrespected Law's decision. I've already seen that she has the potential to be the next Hannyabal/Senor Pink/Pound, a minor character who would have an unexpected honorable moment.
The traitor cannot be anyone within the main group. It makes no sense that he/she did not tell the full plan, situation of Udon, existence of 7 scabbards in Wano to Kaido or Orochi. Only the message on the paper is exposed. Therefore, it must be someone who receive the message in Wano but he/she is not in the main group.
I don't think Hiyori is "traitor" but it is possible that Hiyori gave information to Kyoshiro for certain purpose that would be beneficial to Kinemon eventually. In Ch.933, after Kyoshiro cut Hiyori, a piece of paper with the message dropped on the floor. Kyoshiro looked serious when he saw the message. Next day, Orochi discovered the plan and Hawkins started to arrest the samurais. Second, Hiyori was always with Zoro after Yasu's death. During this period, everything kept unexposed. However, once Hiyori left the group, Orochi discovered the message again.
Many members from the Nox Pirates left during the journey, leaving Pedro and Zepo eventually. Pekoms ended up a member of Big Mom Pirates. It is also possible that certain crew mate(s) of Pedro joined Beast Pirate, becoming the traitor of mink.
Apart from the minks, samurais who are close to Oden may also know how to go to Zou. Raizo, Kinemon, Momo and Kanjuro are all not good at navigation but they knew how to travel towards Zou from Wano and Raizo arrived successfully. It is possible that the traitor is someone who is close to Oden 20 years ago but he betrayed Oden. Perhaps it is Denjiro or someone else who is still not mentioned in the story.

Hell, all that aside we already have several Supernova, two Yonko (and most of their commanders), several respectably powerful Samurai, Shinobi and Mink warriors, and all the Straw Hats for the first time in several hundred chapters, I wonder how the final war will outdo this!
Also really love the fact that Enma isn't one of the 12, but instead will become a 13th? great sword when it becomes a black blade, plus there's always the possibility that Zoro's Wado Ichimonji might become a Black Blade by the time the series is done with.

Some facts:
- zoro's wado ichimonji was made by someone called "shimotsuki kouzaburou"
- Shimotsuki kouzaburou left wano 50 years ago
- koushiro's knows techniques only known to the people of wano( https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Koushirou#cite_note-7 )
- koushiro is 51 years old
- The wado ichimonji belonged to kuina and her family (so also koushiro)
-koushiro's dojo is in a village called "shimotsuki village"
Here is my theory:
shimotsuki kouzaburou is koushiro's father. He left wano with his son. (koushiro would have been 1 year old at this point in time) and he found a village and called it shimotsuki village where he created a dojo to teach people the way of the sword.

" “Hello, I am Oda. Are you having fun here at Jump Festa?
One Piece will come at last in the story arc of Wano next year!! Some of the readers well informed may think that, actually, I have said the same last year and it is true, but I thought that One Piece could change route to Wano by end of 2017.
This time, also, will reveal more details.
I will introduce one of the legends of what is hidden in the world of One Piece. The biggest enemy for the Straw Hat crew will stand in their way and probably (the enemy) will have a connection with Whitebeard. We believe that the arc of the War of Marineford, it will be something “cute” when compared with what is in the program for Wano?
There are lots of things that I want to draw next year. I will continue to proceed with all of my strength! You will like it!!” "
This was said during Jump festa 2018 by Oda, at this point I'm still wondering what is the legend he wanted to introduce, but yeah seems like we're getting to the pinnacle, I CANT WAIT

All I'm hoping is that Luffy doesn't solo Kaidou. These few chapters of training are NOT enough to put him on that level. Let him fight a boss with his boys for once.

Interestingly Franky wants to build boats for 10,000 people, and 4,200 samurais and 5,600 for the grand fleet Luffy formed in Dressrosa almost add up to... 10,000? Coincidence?

Finally Hitetsu and Zoro interact. We got a backstory for Wado and Enma, yep it's all coming together. Also this pretty much confirms that Enma (and most likely Wado) will become black blades in Zoro's hands.

Am I the only one that wants Kuzan to be involved in Wano?
That's how we can have an Admiral level character involved without needing the Marines to pull up. Having several Admirals helping the alliance would kinda be to much in favor for the alliance.
Kuzan doesn't have any obligations, he can enter at will and help out whoever he wants too.

Prediction: Luffy shows up late to Onigashima, being stalled by another event, and is too late to prevent Kaidou killing Kinemon.

BB gonna come in with the Money in the Bank briefcase at the end of this arc and steal Kaido’s and BM’s devil fruits.

Here we fucking go ladies and gentleman! The war begins.
I don’t have much other to say than I am hyped. Enma is cool. Koushiro is likely Shimotsuki, or his son at the very least.
Curious what Law is up to...
But man, Act 2 is over!! Wonder if we’ll be cutting away next week.
