Pudding is ugly as fuck.
Atleast change her personality.
Either make her more pretty or get rid of her ASAP.

>>143652794
She is definitely lying. She didn't show up and the forest or whoever made the clones knew the strawhats where there looking for Sanji.

Oda is not trying to make Pudding seem suspicious and Carrot seem pure and innocent only to reverse their roles later!

Nope! Carrot is not a traitor!

Nope!

I guess my biggest issue post timeskip is that events like these woods before would be something that they have to think about and a crewmember would have to use their unique talent in a way that is explained to the reader. Early One Piece had lots of that sort of thing. All of Usopp's fights, most of Enies Lobby. Now Nami will just vaguely navigate them out with her new world navigation powers or they'll meet a new character with an awful design who will help them. There's no real tension. Even Usopp doesn't have his methodical style anymore, it's just a bag of seeds with the exact plot plant needed for the situation. Please end soon

How many more episodes will the filler Arc last?

>I guess my biggest issue post timeskip is that events like these woods before would be something that they have to think about and a crewmember would have to use their unique talent in a way that is explained to the reader.

That's rather uncommon, Strawhats get lost all the time and get unlost by sheer dumb luck. Happened exploring Little Garden, Skypeia, Thriller Bark, Saboady, and the suckers who got stuck following Luffy in Alabasta, Lily Amazon and Impel Down.

>Now Nami will just vaguely navigate them out with her new world navigation powers or they'll meet a new character with an awful design who will help them.

Nami doesn't have any navigation powers outside of the ocean, she's just as helpless on land. And the local guide showing people around the place is not a new theme.

>Even Usopp doesn't have his methodical style anymore, it's just a bag of seeds with the exact plot plant needed for the situation.

Technically, it was always a plot blog. You never had any idea what Usopp was carrying in there, he suddenly whips out something he will never use again like a ball full of cockroaches against Perona. If Oda wants Usopp to lose, he will still lose like against Trebol or win with something out of the magic bag.

>>143657200
The filler is movie related, and in the past all movie related fillers lasted about 2-4 episodes... This one seems like it will go on for a bit longer, I'm guessing around 6 or 7 episodes total.

>>143657111
I don't know why you're comparing being lost in a forest to major fights. It's more comparable to being lost in Thriller Bark, which was also tensionless.

Besides, this is a manga where the good guys win 90% of the time and people almost never die. The only arcs with any tension were the War saga.

Usopp vs Sugar was pretty good, but he really hasn't actually had a 1v1 since the time skip yet aside from Daruma... But that fight sucked mainly because Daruma wasn't a threat.

I see what you're saying and agree partially.

Honestly I just enjoy One Piece for the sheer joy of adventure that Oda seems to have that never leaves his manga. We're on an island made of candy after being on a giant elephant island and before that was Spainland. It's a fun manga where bad guys are bastards and it's fun seeing their shit kicked in. It's internally consistent, and everything feels written with purpose. It's just a treat to read every week

Most Strawhats get a numbered chapter when they joined. Or rejoined. Zoro was the First. Nami the Second, etc. I believe Chopper and Robin are the only two who hasn't gotten a numbered chapter.

>>143660386

It's the same with Grand Line.

Hyped it up as the craziest thing ever and yet it's full of shitters or regular civilians surviving just fine. Entirely kingdoms with no strong warriors somehow existing no problem.

>>143660386
Pre-timeskip Strawhats would have been wrecked by the New World

Doflmaingo was a somewhat challenging opponent, and I'm sure they'll struggle against Big Mom and Kaido and their respective crews

I'm just curious to see what Kaido's going to do since he wants a big war and since he may soon have knowledge that Big Mom unknowingly possesses Poseidon

Thanks Oda.

>>143660657
I'd like to see what happens when non-jobber Strawhats fight the other Supernovas, I'd imagine they'd crush most of them

>>143660738
Yeah Krieg would have been fine if he didn't run into a bored Mihawk

>>143660444
because it was a trap?

>>143660527
How? Doffy was only on the radar because of Law. The Strawhats wouldn't have fought Doffy 2 years ago. Would they be able to finish the New World as quickly as Paradise? Definitely not. Does that they'll get completely wrecked? Absolutely not. Everyone else survived just fine.

>>143660988

>>143661034
Yea, cause having 12 big hairy dudes with you while stealing pizza is a good idea.

>>143660892
Well if they were guaranteed to run into trouble anywhere she sure did them a great favour

>>143660924
>spreading your asscheeks to "the man" is doing well for yourself

Yeah Strawhats were never going to do that, so Big Mom, Kaido, and maybe Blackbeard would have come to crush them much sooner, and then if they were lucky enough to survive the first attack, they'd have to run and hide under Shanks to survive any further, which is something Luffy would not like doing

>>143661067
Not if you're aiming to be pirate king.

>>143660527
>I'm just curious to see what Kaido's going to do since he wants a big war
He doesn't want a big war, he wants a total, world-wide war. He's suicidal, but since he can't off himself, he turned to omnicide instead.

>>143660924
everyone else probably didn't go on the island with the overpowered logia

>>143659633
Honestly it seems like this affliction is something that Big Only has only started suffering from fairly recently. People, even her own kids, seem pretty shocked and horrified at how she's acting.

That's why I'm guessing Kaido would go for Poseidon

If he got his hands on that, he could wreck anyone in the One Piece world and cause a shitload of chaos and destruction

Obviously the Marines and the Yonko wouldn't appreciate that, especially Big Mom who would consider Poseidon "hers" because it's in her territory, even if she didn't know about it

>>143661113
Do you really think that if she really had 12 big hairy dudes with her she would have to steal pizzas one slice at a time and by skulking around, instead of just taking over the pizzeria? She got rekt by Blackbeard and miraculously escaped Akainu after an unspecified amount of time. She has no crew to speak of.

>>143661692
the kind that oda writes

>>143661681
I always thought that Big Mom and Kaido would go down first, then in the ensuing power vacuum Blackbeard would go for the final take-down on Shanks, making Blackbeard the de facto King of the Pirates until he or Luffy found One Piece

I actually don't think Luffy will straight up fight Big Mom. He'll humiliate her and get some victory but Kaido will be the first Yonko he actually beats so it'll be as big a deal as when he beat Crocodile. Blackbeard is definitely gonna make a power play but the WG needs to be dealt with in some way. It's just a toss up of whether WG or Blackbeard are the final villains

>>143661692
Big Mom wants her enemies close, anon. She knows he is in her territory and she is probably planning something big to do to him, be it related to the tea party or not.

Can't wait till Luffy uses Gear First; who knows what it could be.

Probably a monkey god.

I had an Idea for a pirate
anyone wanna hear it?

>>143662904
Absolutely; we all love original characters here and we won't steal them.

>>143662085
Why? It's not like he didn't go to a Tea Party or anything. Big Mom already showed that she's kinda on board with the whole "Pirate = Free" deal. The Strawhats left on bad terms in FI too. And she did the reasonable thing and said she'd direct her gaze towards the SHs.

An hour of Oda drawing. Strangely captivating.

okay
His name is Lawrence "Noose Neck" Longfellow
He was an average new world Pirate that stayed behind to hold off the Marines while his crew escaped after they stole a huge supply of gold.
He was hung from a tree for his crimes, but for some reason he didn't die.
the figured if they just left him he'd eventually starve to death, so they left him hanging.
Weeks passed and he only survived by eating birds that tried to peck his tongue out.
eventually, his body stretched to the point where he could get free of his noose leaving him freakishly tall with a super long neck.
his trick is that he uses Kami-e and the stretchiness of his body to coil around his opponents and suffocate/strangle them

>>143653242
I know it's a troll, but why?
Seeing Nami or Robin kiss a crewmate would be like watching your girlfriend make out with a retard.

Gaimon is weird, yea, but that doesn't make Long Noose Jackson over there any better. Especially with the damn surviving on crows, magical survival of being hung and suffocating people with his langy neck shit.

>>143659577
Strawhats get a numbered chapter everytime they join the Strawhats, or have a moment where they put aside some part of their behavior to rejoin proper. Zoro, Sanji, Franky and Brook all got theirs when they joined, but Nami only got hers at the end of the Arlong arc, and Usopp only got his at the end of the Water 7 Saga. The only two who haven't yet are Robin and Chopper. Robin hadn't got hers after Water 7, so it's assumed hers will come after we have a proper Revolutionary saga. Chopper though, it's really hard to say what will make him have his crew placement crisis. My guess though is he'll remind them that he never actually affirmed to go with them, just sort of silently came along after Luffy said 'shut up, let's go'.

I think it will be about his devil fruit. Unlike the others he doesn't really have a people of his own. He's not a human though he acts like one. He's not a minkmen though he looks like one. He's just a reindeer, and his intelligence is all because of his fruit. So what is really him, and what's the fruit? Robin, Luffy, Brook, their devil fruits are a part of them, but they aren't their sapience or intelligence. Really all Chopper is is a beast with a mind given to him by a fruit. There's some serious existential depression to unpackage from that.

>>143664116

>>143657895

>>143663957
and your point? the strawhats are still stuck in a deadly forest on the coast that pudding told directed them to.

>>143664165
And also, Chopper's bounty is definitely going to be a plot point. Remember when Sanji's face not being seen in bounties was a joke and then it became a plot point? Think of how much Chopper idolized Hiriluk's vision, and especially with pirates. How can it feel to grow up on believing in the freedom of pirates and then discovering, after years at sea, you've got a category that has you at the lowest ranking possible? It's got to sting him in more than just a comical way, to find you're the worst out of a profession of millions, at least to one form of ranking?

>>143663509
that'd be a scary guy to fight.
but it'd be pretty funny to see him try and fight Luffy

>>143661692
Anon that's because this trap laid out is all head canon.
Why is a yonko setting something up as petty as a trap in her own territory? Definitely when she had the element of surprise and could have easily killed them by now? Why would she need her daughter to lead them there instead of just sinking there ship in the middle of the ocean? So pudding knew that the SH was on her island and would eat her cafe? Oh and she apparently gets told great detail about sanji but is only allowed to see his wanted poster. She can accurately guess that sanji would actually love to marry her but wants to return to his crew. Instead of sending a whole crew in the forest to kill the strawhats they just send one white rabbit, who's quick to attack and give his self away. And there's even more nonsense where that came from

>>143664223

honestly he'd probably see it as a boon because it allows him to get away with a lot more stuff.

Why would oda give doffy a great trap and yet give a yonko a flunky trap that looks like it wouldn't even work.plus she never said to go into some woods

yes.

yes

>>143664822
The wood is alive, and pudding is supposed to be a resident. You would think the island wouldn't attack pudding herself, therefore making the bimbo think it is safe for everyone

Why?

>>143664862
>it failed
Ok and look why it failed. 1) viola still wasn't loyal. If she was sanji would have died 100% 2) he didn't anticipate sabo joining the tournament. Jesus would have got ace devil fruit at least then since luffy would have left 3) he didn't expect jola to be stupid enough to fall for a obvious lie or that ship crew would have all been dead. 4) he didn't expect sugar to fall for a shitty gag/asspull. If not for that then luffy and law would have dead.

His plan was actually a good one and had all the right stuff, he just didn't expect the unexpected. While this BM trap is just stupid and makes absolutely no sense

So Pudding and Sanji disappear and lure the SHs into the woods because they weren't on time?

Do you think Oda make shit up as the manga go along, or he has all the stories and characters stories already set in stone?

Because for some reason, i just can't see this sekrit assassin sanji family happening unless it is to pad up arcs. I know there was foreshadowing with the wanted posters, but it wasn't like some of the other strawhats had unique ones made for just comedy sake.

>>143666352

It absolutely does. That yonko told her daughter about her fiance.

>>143666352
>want to marry you but I can't
They know he is a womanizer and would marry any pretty girl. They also know he would chose his friends over any random pretty girl.


Is not rocket science anon.

>>143666491
If only Pudding and Big Mom were related in some way, we could make the conjecture that Pudding knew that stuff because Big Mom told her.

>>143666491
>Mother talks to Daughter about future husband
WOAAAHHHH, MY FUCKING MIND IS BLOWN, DUUUUDE

Come on now.

Did we forget how completely out of character it is for Sanji to reject a woman? The crew even seemed shocked that that happened.

Hell, even in Dressrosa when Viola was seducing him he was already practicing his goodbye to Nami and Robin.

Literally everything Pudding describes about him could be derived from the wanted poster.

Curly eyebrows, heart shaped eyes, black legs? (Which is the title on his wanted poster above all things.)

>>143666458
>your fiancé is the chef of the strawhats
>she only said that after she met the crew

Anon You're basically giving off "ifs" . You don't know if BM told her sanji was a chef and you're basically saying "what if she put it together that he would marry her but rather go back to his crew since they came for him." You don't have proof of this besides your head canon so you can deny the obvious and explain your theory. Plus oh let me guess BM told her that sanji was a gentleman also.

>>143666729
They are supposed to have grown up out of their "flaws" post time skip. That's why he got sent to a tranny island

>>143666549
>what if BM her: the post

>>143667102
*Told her

>>143666729
Sanji has learned that the mission is more important than the woman. By going on the journey with his friends he is likely to find a new woman regardless.

It applies to real life as well, like a stupid person dropping out of high school to support his girlfriend. Then he's surprised when she dumps him later due to him being a loser with no education or job.

>>143667003
>Anon You're basically giving off "ifs"
Okay since a mom discussing details of marriage with her daughter is too much for you, let's stick to what we know.

>Pudding said to meet on the southwest coast and gave them a route to reach the coast without being seen,
>Pudding and Sanji are seen then mysteriously disappear and the SHs are lured into the deadly forest by Sanji.
>Big Mom subordinate happened to be in the forest and tried to kill Nami.
>The forest is sentient and intends to keep the SHs in there until they die.
>Pudding is nowhere to be seen

She did not deliver the Sanji to the Strawhats as promised. The Strawhats are now lost in a deadly forest after following directions that Pudding gave them.

>>143666432
A bit of both.

>>143666504
>Real Sanji and Pudding are in the forest
>Clone Sanji is messing with Luffy
Are you really struggling to grasp at that alternative? It's not really that far fetched

>>143666634
You're acting like BM has to talk to her about her fiancé. BM clearly isn't your normal mother and I doubt she honestly cares if you want to marry the person or not. So stop making it seem like it's a for sure thing BM talked to her about him. Unless I skipped a chapter where they hand a conversation

>>143667037
Nigga, what? They're supposed to be stronger. That's literally it.

Luffy is still an idiot who loves met to unhealthy degress
Zoro is still an alcoholic, broken GPS, smug marimo
Usopp is still a coward that yells at shit
Nami is still a money hungry bitch
Sanji is still an ultimate pussy chaser
Chopper still can't take compliments, gets scared easily
Robin is still shit at drawings.
Franky is still a pervert
Brook is still a pervy grandpa.

But they all got strong. That was the entire point.

>>143667383
Speed reader confirmed

>>143667288
You're forgetting
>Some force is capable of cloning people (Luffy)

We do not know if Pudding tricked them so that's a what if. Another what if is that Pudding was unable to make it to the shore and the Pudding and Sanji seen so far are clones.

>>143667037
Not really their major character flaws are still there and in Sanji's case it's probably even more apparent. He didn't see a woman in 2 years and that made him even more desperate.

As someone who regularly uses the term where it actually applies. Please do not besmirch it by throwing it at any situation where you made a claim you cannot defend.

Why did it try to kill Nami?
Is it because Sanji said he wouldn't marry her because he loves Nami? Is that why they are trying to get rid of Nami?

>>143667463
>We do not know if Pudding tricked them so that's a what if
So someone else must have known the Strawhats were headed to the southwest coast to pick up Sanji. Which means that Pudding snitched.

>>143667507
I don't care about your shit flinging argument. The poster I replied to was incapable of comprehending the point the other anon was making when it seemed obvious to me. I was only taking the chance to call the poster a retard.

When the chapter in question had two Luffy's confronting each other, it's baffling that someone seems to think the Sanji we saw was the real one without even acknowledging the other possibilities.

>>143667553
But it does apply because to you because your definition of character development involves characters getting stronger in a fight. Pay more attention to the dialogue post timeskip and you'll see plenty of development.

Luffy is treated more like a captain.
Usopp is more true to himself (hence why he developed haki).

My thing is you literally have no proof of them having a conversation besides you're own logic of "this should happen" or "what if this happened". You're acting like it's impossible that big mom wouldn't talk to her daughter about the wedding.

And if we're going off facts from what we read and not our head logic then.

I'm not saying it's impossible for Pudding to be a traitor, but it's just as easy to say she's not. She is a daughter of Big Mom, was travelling through her territory, has special attention paid to her as a soon to be bride, and promised to bring Sanji there when he's probably not just sitting around in the middle of nowhere. Plenty could have happened to lead to others being aware that the SHs were going to touch down on the shore line.

Everything regarding the forest itself is also thrown out since we know for sure that clone shenanigans are afoot. Nothing is certain.

Look autismo, I know it's hard to follow conversations, but you need to take the time to actually process what you're reading before you make a retard out of your self. You might as well be throwing a tantrum since I already made it clear that I consider it a possibility. Your post is literally worthless as anything but a show of your own stupidity/lack of reading comprehension.

>>143667645
Nigger, I never claimed that the Strawhats didn't get any character development. But the phrase "They are supposed to have grown up out of their "flaws" post time skip" is objectively false. The flaws are still there and still blatant. But that is what makes those chracters them. If Luffy was smart and all serious he wouldn't be Luffy any more. If Usopp was fearless and unbeatable, if Sanji wasn't thirsting for girls, if Zoro wasn't lost 24/7, etc. The point of the fucking timeskip wasn't to get rid of those. That was my point. And I call all those "flaws" because you characterise Sanji's horniness as one.

Yes, and the poster I replied to had the impression that I did not when I made it blatantly clear in the first sentence of my post. Like I said, I'm not wrong in mocking the post in question.

If we want to go further back into the reply chain, the posts I were replying to were not neutral and were instead on the side of Pudding being a traitor. I was pointing out that it was flawed thinking through my neutral stance.

>>143669207

You're an idiot for assuming that. This is why I said your point was unrelated. I've been arguing under the premise that Pudding set a trap for the Strawhats and led them into the forest via doppelgangers.

For you to come in and assert that the real Sanji could be out there in the forest as well is nonsense in that context.

This is not true. I just reasserted the claim I have been making since the beginning.

This is now the fourth time I had to break this down for you. You can backpedal all you want. The picture posted was entirely irrelevant to >>143666115

bothered to post. Tell me why you felt the need to reassert a claim in reply to a post that already made that exact claim. Like I said in, >>143668152 reasserting your claim was worthless because I already acknowledged and accepted it. If you can actually show where the value in that post is, feel free to prove me wrong. All you did was reply with >>143668548
which is basically "u mad?"

then i guess that's where i was wrong.

By reasserting my claim, I was disregarding the other end of your neutral statement.

What a worthless comment. No shit that's what you were trying to do. "Trying" is the operative word. I was saying that it holds no value because, if you actually read my post and understood it, you would have realized that I already shot down that argument. As I've said several times. What you were doing was meaningless. The value you put to that post was false.

She will get BTFO. Pudding definitely snitched. Ugly ass hoe

>>143671533
>you're accusing me of autism
>you must be baiting
Im not baiting. But you seem so sure that pudding is lying and lured them into a trap, then you shouldn't have a problem agreeing to it. if you're wrong and oda shows that pudding has been telling the truth and didn't set traps then you just have to post that you were autistic for even thinking she was a trader. Oh but that's right just like every other lyingfag you can't since you know there is still a chance that she really isn't s trader

>>143671590
It's not a argument I been ended that. I just want lyingfags to admit that they are autistic once they're proven wrong. Let me guess you're going to say the same thing "oh no I can't agree to something like that because i know I'm right"

Nami has been super nice with people in need before the timeskip, like when she helped Lola and gave her treasure.

Mom is probably like Nami. Sometimes allowing others to follow her golden rule of freedom and other times putting her own needs over those of others.

If Lola still thinks highly of mom despite ditching her crew then that means they left in good terms.

The point of musou is the cathartic fun of sending hundreds of mooks flying with each of your attacks. It's not hard, but it sure is fun.

Or is it just beat goons over and over again until your bloodlust is satiated?

>>143681300
Well there are other characters that are stronger than mooks and there are bosses, but they're still pretty easy, though that depends on your character and his level. If you want fighting, go for Burning Blood.

That guy was VERY shifty looking. Oda isn't normally good at hiding when a character is despicable. Especially when he has an ugly mobster face, and was in the room with them when Pudding told them about it.

Prediction for the next chapter:

The chapter opens with Luffy and Co. encountering all sorts of dangers.
Nami has to stop them from dying.
Finally expresses worry that Pudding was lying.
"Whaaaaaat, no way" from Chopper and Carrot.
Luffy tries to deny it at first but Nami convinces him of the possibility.
"Right. Well then we'll just have to fight our way to Big Mom's castle and fight out what's wrong!"
Nami punches Luffy but resigns herself to the fact she can't stop it.

Micro-flashback to just after Pudding arrives on WCI.
Pudding has a mildly worried expression but is otherwise calm.
She meets with her mother or one of the top subordinates.
"So happy for you," etc.
The preparation will take two full days.
"You will be watched at all times and you may not leave your room."
Pudding is shocked.
Panicked, she tries to make some lame excuse but is shot down immediately.
Last panel of flashback is Pudding crying.

Are you the same person that accused others of lacking basic reading comprehension skills?

I'm just here to point and laugh at the retards arguing whether "what if" is better than "could be" and your atrocious spelling of simple words.

>>143684850
You know, you actually would need only three of the Road Poneglyphs to find Raftel, unless there's some magic bullshit we're not privy to. Let me whip out an explanation in paint, give me a sec.

>>143684850
I want it will be in Davey Jones' Locker.

Like, the island that was going to have it got swallowed by the sea in the New World parallel to Aqua Laguna. It gives us a good time to reunion with all the people from flashbacks, explore that big sailing lore hotspot, and maybe bring back some peeps if the Revo V. WG war that's bound to happen gets too brutal. So when they find it and read it, they learn the road is to the moon, but only during special lunar periods, adding a ticking clock to their adventures for the final stretch.

I mean, I'd give the entire context to the idea I have for it, but that'd be a MASSIVE wall of text going back to the upcoming post-Yonkou arc.

>>143684934
That implies that the center point IS Raftel, and not merely a guide TO Raftel or instructions on it. It's like how you're supposed to note ALL the Poneglyphs to get the Rio Poneglyph, where both could also just be found by blind luck if it is just navigation.

There's got to be a code or a purpose to finding all four, just finding the island shouldn't be enough. In fact, I think what would be badass is if someone found the island, and since they didn't have the data for it, they go there, and it's just an empty barren rock. So Luffy gets a splash of doubt in his face when that guy's like 'okay autist you want to find Raftel well here you go let's go there right now... see? NOTHING!!!'

And then, even as they're finding the poneglyphs and making the proper trip to Raftel, there's that nagging doubt like 'what if he's right and there's nothing there? What if this trip is pointless' that colors the future sagas, only to get blissfully relieved when they get there again, and bringing the right stuff makes the whole place come alive or something. You know, ye of little faith stuff. It's what I'd write anyway...

>>143685075
What if it's at the core of Fishman island and to get it Luffy would need to destroy the island?

7KB, 292x139px

>>143684934
Okay, so as we know, the four Road Poneglyphs point to four points in the world which then point to the location of Raftel. Cat and Dog explained as much in the Whale Tree.
Illustration no.1 is a recreation of what Oda drew when they were talking about it.

Now, say we only had three Road Poneglyphs to work with. The points revealed by those are red, while the one we don't know about is black. You could still draw a line between all three on the points you know and travel from one point to another, and eventually you'd reach Raftel when you'll travel down the diagonal. Obviously the points won't create a perfect square, so there's no telling which two points would be the opposites, so you'd need to travel between all three to be sure.
I think Nami might figure it out after they have seen all three known Poneglyphs and propose to do just that, only for Luffy to object because that would be "cheating".

>>143685230
>That implies that the center point IS Raftel
It's not necessarily the center, but the point of intersection was literally stated to be Raftel.

>>143685236
I think the island will be destroyed with the end of the Red Line. See the whole world, as it's currently set up, is running like a giant hydroelectric power plant for whatever alien/devil/god-analogy systems the moons are running on. The currents of the Grand Line and New World, and strange phenomenon are part of this machine being powered, and Luffy will end up breaking the thing and shutting it down. In return the Red Line will get its shit wrecked and fragment into normal continents and islands, taking Fishman Island with it, while making a whole new set of continents and islands and oceans to explore, giving Luffy a whole new set of adventures for his epilogue.

>>143685444
Well if it is, sorry for speedreading, but it still seems like a stupid thing to have a system where you don't actually need all the Poneglyphs to do. I mean, what sort of stupid system would actually give someone the answer right then and there for not doing everything? A bad system is what. I'm still convinced that you need all four Road Poneglyphs anyway to get the 'whatever' is at Raftel to work right. Dumb luck or systems of elimination should not be able to confound a quest like that.

Too drunk to make this make sense but seriously the "only 3 points or 2 points needed" bullshit is seriously starting to get to me.

Why does everyone assume it's on a 2 dimensional plane and not 3d, why does everyone assume it won't require a sky island, a moon, some underwater city, or points OUTSIDE the grand line, or if it won't require the lines of intersection to be done a certain way, won't be behind an illusion or a fucking portal or some fucking shit my god.

>>143685868
So? Her dream would have to have had gone through every possible Grand Line/New World combination, which was how many different log pose routes there were PLUS all the new world routes. This is actually faster, just dealing with a world of compasses and variable ocean routes.

It's silly to imagine all the Strawhats will or should have their dreams completed IN the series. Some sure, but why not have dreams that compel them to keep sailing even after the manga's done?

My ideal ending is like the end of that one Romance Dawn with Luffy and his crew celebrating and sailing off to new adventures, beyond this Grand Line/One Piece mystery.

>>143686023
>Why does everyone assume it's on a 2 dimensional plane and not 3d
Because it doesn't fucking matter. You need to mark the locations on a map, and maps are 2D.

>>143686023
>Why does everyone assume it's on a 2 dimensional plane and not 3d
1. We were told you could draw the points on a map. (This also implies points can't be too far apart, since you brought that up.)
2. If it was 3d then you'd need more than 4 points.

Try using your fucking brain maybe?

Not all maps are 2D; and also it doesn't say you can draw it on a map.

The Road Poneglyphs, a set of four special red poneglyphs, each reveal a point on a map of the world once read. When all four points are deciphered, it becomes possible to discern the place at the center of these points where they all intersect, and the true path to Raftel will be made known.

It was stated they reveal a point on A MAP, this doesn't mean all points have to be on the SAME map.

Point on a map of skypeia or another island, point of fishman island or another map, points outside the grand line.

Jesus fuck speed readers bother me.

>Not all maps are 2D
