One piece manga 804 review

An Adventure one the back of an elephant

Well, a chapter coming off  after two weeks was quite a cracker, this week's chapter was quite amazing with introductions being made to the new arc, zou. Oda's clever,he made us say arc for everything bcz zou turned out to be an elephant and he wanted to reveal it by a surprise. this chapter included a lot of things to be discussed....lets have a look;

• The falling thing.(just to be precise :P)

It turned out that the flying thing wasn't raizou but a weird monkey kind creature making a ninja-ic sound, i guess it is related to Raizou, maybe a summoning of him, or he just did a tranformation-no jutsu. But, when we see the first(short) mink, she says," lesser minks have entered, did bariete lose?" the last letters are ete, the ninja sound, so bariete could be this creature..if so, then he's with the minks. we also came to know that the creature could speak human language, when franky said that he heard an unfamiliar tone. 

• Zoro and Trafalgers' stance

Both of them had a same attitude after reaching atop Zou, it could indicate that both the strawhats and heart pirates are well versed and aren't going to ditch one another...not atleast in this arc. the co-operation is apparent.

• The 'City-scape'

When luffy goes onto the top, we get to see the view of the apparently ruined city. One of the astonishing thing was that of a huge tree at the centre, it was actually a giant fish. Maybe it got all cyanosed and trees started coming off on it....at the end, the second mink(carrot) mentions Whale's forest , so maybe that spot is Whale's forest considering the fact that it looks like that...and the flowers here look like a disco ball, exactly spherical and shiny. I guess there is a good concept behind the formation of all these bcz, in the previous arc's like skypiea and sabaody, Oda has built the islands perfectly in accordance to the scientific line.....so this arc could also be explained in a similar way.

• Transport elements on Zou

The mode of transport here i guess, is the crocodile kind creature, we saw it twice, first when sheep-head confronted the curly hat pirates and now when carrot comes up. It was being foreshadowed by oda since long ago,,, on the colored cover pages wherein strawhats sit on the crocodiles...

• We see that the Gates were forced open and paths were wide

I guess that it was all a result of sheep-head's doings previously that lead to it being wide. probably by the crocodile kind thing used in transport, which are basically huge animals.

• Minks' jolly roger;

Last time, when sheep head got knocked out, we see a jolly roger on him, everyone speculated that it is of Kaidou(including me), but i'd consider it on a second preference. my first preference would be Minkmen..i guess the jolly is of minkmen bcz they live on elephant, hence the horns and if we observe it carefully, we see a 'M' written on it. M for minkmen ...maybe.

• And great Kudos to Luffy senpai for just wandering off.

Everytime luffy does this, it gets interesting yet humorous of what he might come across. maybe he discovers some-thing/one and gets to know of the place's history etc..or he comes across onikuu (Xd)

• Presence of poneglyph?

After watching all the ruins and considering the fact that zou has a history of 1000 years, there might well be a poneglyph here. probably revealing why the elephant ended up this way. Roger might have talked to it, in luffy's crew, chopper might be the one to do so.

• God Usopp's reaction on the weirdness of zou.

It was quite hilarious when usopp says," wont we ever end up at a peaceful place?" 

• Were those clothes nami's?

Absolotuly nope. because the last time we see her, she's in a completely different attire. Oda just had to find a way to end the chapter with the readers' jaw wide open, and hence this..i guess.

That brings an end to the review of this week's manga chapter, it was quite good, hope the next one's are going to be the same too.. and yeah, i guess jimbei will be joining the strawhats at Wano probably and so seriously, no new strawhats on this arc. Because on the cover story, we see jimbei say that he's got a new pain of Kimono. which probably highlights Wano's culture as seen through the colored cover pages. and i guess he's bringing the new found poneglyph too.(apparently). do feel free to let me know of what you feel about the 'happenings'. meet you next time.

Theory:-All You need to know of blackbeard

All you need to know of Blackbeard 

To start off with  my theory, let me tell you how Oda bases the story of one piece, he bases some of them with illuminati;;; 

 for example, lets look at this; 

this picture is from where the gorosei reside,have a look;

What you can basically see is sure horrifying, the roofs and walls are all equipped with the Illuminati-c symbols. 

There's this author who many of you might know, Dan brown. he said about Illuminati and much about them in the book "Angels and Demons", he's a writer with high research skills into dark organisations. so, i guess Oda is a Dan brown fan.

Even i am his fan, i read his books... there's another of Dan brown's book called as the Inferno. And i say,that the character Marshall D Teach AKA Blackbeard is derived from a part of this book. 

• Lets start off with Blackbeard's jolly roger, it has three skulls, which hints that his body, though it appears single, behaves as three ultimately. two facts confirm it;

• First up,We already know that Marco said, BB has an atypical body.
• Secondly, as Jinbei said, BB pirates are after men with potential devil fruits. BB already has two devil fruits, the tremor-tremor of Whitebeard and the other which he stole from thatch.(Yami-Yami no mi) but he still has one body without devil fruit(genetically) and that could be the reason why the BB pirates are after potential devil fruit users.

Now, coming to Dan Brown's Inferno, the lead character, Robert Langdon and her compatriot Dr.Brooks, come across a weird cylindrical artifact, on which there's a picture carved, the 'The three headed horned Satan' is the carving's name. At another instance, on the same page, it is also mentioned as 'three headed man eating Satan'

Read the second paragraph.

This is the other part.

Now, what does that symbol represent? Langdon says that it represents the plague that occurred during the middle ages in parts of Europe(called Black Death), the three heads represent the frequency by which people were dying(hence the name man eating satan). he also says that, after the period of  plague, came an event which almost every other high school student might know, the "Renaissance" /Rebirth.........

Coming to one piece, currently the Whitebeard era has ended and its now the Blackbeard Era. I guess that Blackbeard Era represents the period of plague due to the fact that the symbol has three heads. And i guess , the period of Renaissance/Rebirth represents Luffy's era, as he aspires to become the pirate king. that will be the period where people of the world will experience rebirth..as they'll be free from the world government's clutches.

I'm afraid of blackbeard going after Sabo because BB admires Ace's devil fruit but, Sabo has dragon by his side...and i dont really think that BB pirates are going to wage a war against the revolutionaries, BB would atleast be cautious of dragon. and i guess Oda has made Revolutionaries as rebels to world government so eventually they'll fight it out with the marines....the revolutionaries might have been derived from the Bolsheviks of Russia which were lead by Lenin. So i don't really think of a BBs vs revolutionaries war in near future.

Blackbeard as a kid was quite depressed as drawn by Oda in SBS. Maybe his parents discarded him or he might have had dreams which the other people didn't beliece of...and therefore maybe they mocked him several times. that's why i guess he had this long speech saying that dreams are boundless and other sorts of stuff to luffy,zoro,nami at Mocktown after Luffy got mocked by bellamy pirates....So, maybe Blackbeard was mocked in a similar way during his childhood, Which led him to pursue things at any cost in darkest of dark ways....

That bring an end to my theory of what Blackbeard might possibly be, if you have to say something of which you believe, let me know in the comments below.
