Rewatching Skypiea.
Tumblr media
I just recently finished rewatching the Skypiea arc and now I'm just bursting with thoughts about its significance and foreshadowing in One piece plot. I will try to summarize them briefly. And yes I'll eventually reduce all my analysis to the Donquixotes problem again, you guessed it.
I’ll say right away that I’ve already seen some of the theories in Twitter before but I didn’t really read into them. Therefore all these thoughts about the parallels, foreshadowing and Chekhov's guns that Oda generously sprinkled in this undoubtedly important and simply stunning One Piece arc came to me quite independently of existing theories. However they refers on them I think.
There will be a lot of text and chaotic thoughts that I will try to formulate into something readable. Get ready! And do not pay attention to possible translation errors (sorry). Let's go.
The most obvious foreshadowing here is primarily references to the current Egghead Island arc. I will wrote about this down below and it's about the Gear 5. There are also obvious parallels with Dressrosa. Here I was interested in seeing with a fresh look to the abilities of the priests of Enel. ''Skyrider” Shura with his "Ordeal of String" reminds me Doflamingo and the power of his fruit. Also "Skybreeder" Ohm: his barbed-wire cage made of iron clouds again reminiscent of Doflamingo and his “Birdcage”. And Ohm's flexible attacks of sword with the shape-changing cloud blade are so similar to the Diamante's fighting techniques. But priests use all these techniques without using the power of any Devil Fruits. And also they do not use the coating with Haki, using only Mantra (the variation of Observation Haki).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Well now I just say a few words about some of the oddities of Luffy’s behavior on Skypiea and all the obvious harbingers of Nika’s appearance. I just note how impressed I was by the scene of the final fight between Luffy and Enel - how much it has in common with the climax of the Wano arc and the battle with Kaido. Here was Wyper, who like Law and Kid who have seeing the power of Gear 5 later finally believed in Luffy and his strength and so similarly was desperately shouting "Come on, do it, Mugiwara!" And here was the common people of Skypiea who also supported Luffy with the power of their prayers.
Tumblr media
And finally the “weapon” with which Luffy delivers his final blow to the enemy. This is still just a huge golden ball on his hand and not a real «Bajrang Gun»-fist, but it looks so much like it!
Tumblr media
And also the ancient faith of the Shandians in the Sun God, allusions at the mysterious connection of the heavenly people with Imu, which is reflected in the idols of Varsa. And of course the Enelface which most likely was not just a joke of Oda. Oh yes I really believe that all these strange and funny faces of Luffy’s rivals and comrades at certain moments are not just a gag, but the tricks of the insidious Oda Nika acting independently of Luffy's will.
Tumblr media
I won’t dwell on this too much. Let's talk about something else.
First of all I saw enough hints confirming the fairly well-known theory that Dragon (like the entire Monkey D. family) may well be connected with the Shandians. Though it is still unclear why in this case they do not have wings. Dragon himself looks very similar to Kalgara. And the tattoos (paint?) on his face - by style of patterns - are stylistically similar to the patterns on the faces, bodies and clothes of warriors of Shandora. In addition Shandian chief priest traditionally wears a hat with a dog's head on it, strongly reminiscent of Garp's headdress. Another remarkable fact is that Dragon and Kalgara are voiced by the same VA - Hidekatsu Shibata! Knowing the One Piece trend this may be more than just a coincidence.
Tumblr media
In parallel with this theory I can assume that Dragon may not to be the one of the Shandian race directly. He may be connected with them by some common affairs of the revolutionary army. After all his tattoos appear on his face after some incident. Possibly related to matters on Sky Island. After all when the Strawhats arrive on Heaven's Island an old lady with a camera at Heaven's Gate asks them whether the arrivals are sightseeing tourists or fighters. This means that Skypiea is visited not only by tourists but perhaps also by people with other purposes (such as revolutionaries).
In addition I noticed that the bazookas and pistols of the Shandians have a very recognizable design of the weapons of the Blue Sea inhabitants. And most likely also have a silicon mechanism enhanced by the action of Breath and Flash Dials.
Tumblr media
And we know two main organizations, although they have radically different goals, but are related to the circulation of weapons: the revolutionary army and... the criminal organization of the Joker (that means Doflamingo again). This may well mean that one of them could supply weapons to the Skypiean rebels, based on some of their still unclear plans. Because the Skypieans themselves practically do not use such weapons. Although they clearly know how to handle them, according to the combat skills in handling the Burn Bazooka of pretty Conis.
Next I have a lot of very questions about the god Enel. But it’s difficult to build theories about it without fully understanding what exactly the initial conflict between the inhabitants of the Sky and the Earth was. What goals Enel pursued in trying to throw Skypiea and all the sky islands off their “illegally” (in his own words) occupied places. What were his motives and reasons for destroying the sky islands?
However I am almost sure that there is again a connection with Mariejois. Firstly Enel is the owner of an extremely powerful fruit (logia and perhaps even the mythical Zoan of the deity Raijin). After all there are practically no Devil fruit users on the Sky Islands. Excluding Enel and a couple of animals that are also clearly not local to begin with.
In addition Enel does not have wings although he must to be a Birkans. We don’t yet know how he lost them, but perhaps it has something to do with the eradication of his native island Birka (by Enel? That’s also a question).
Tumblr media
Here I should note that the mysterious monk Urouge is similarly looks like the Birkans too, according to the images of the three winged races on the lunar fresco. And with this remaining undisclosed representative of supernovas, there will clearly still be some important story about the oppression and extermination of races and nations by people calling themselves gods. And according the way Enel organized Survival games among the Skypieans in the likeness of those games that the Tenryubito organized for fun, exterminating various races, he probably should know about this firsthand. Well in general I want to say that his story as a whole is somewhat reminiscent of John Milton’s “Paradise Lost” in its symbolism. Where a fallen angel challenges God.
And here begins the most interesting part of the analysis for me.
Who is called God on the island of Skypiea? Even if he’s already an former? Gan Fall.
And who as we know are the gods in the world of One piece? Tenryubito.
Gan Fall also does not have wings. And he is clearly not a Skypiean. And he is not at all from race of the sky people.
He was clearly appointed by someone to play the role of God there. That is mean he is literally the God's vicar on Skypiea and he even calls himself a mercenary.
Well the most interesting thing is what image did Oda choose for this character???
A recognizable image of Don Quixote from the Spanish epic novel by Miguel de Cervantes. Naturally I immediately got the distinct impression that he is literally … Donquixote.
It’s no coincidence that Doflamingo already appeared in the story before Skypiea. We've already heard this name! And after that we suddenly see such an obviously recognizable image from mass culture of a new character with an unclear mysterious past.
After all Gan Fall has almost all the characteristics of this peculiar family (we don't attribute here Doffy). Gan Fall is also a little not of this world and for some reason he is similarly drawn to the ordinary peaceful life of a common man, as he himself says reporting that he voluntarily renounced the title of god.
He calls himself a Knight of the Sky. Is it possible that he is one of the God's knights like Saint Figarland Garling and one of the World Noble? May be just former, but it's still impressive. And of course he is well aware of D.
Tumblr media
Well in him if desired you can see some external similarities with Donquixote Homing (just look how funny his watering can is).
Tumblr media
Here I again remember Doflamingo’s possible involvement in the appearance of Blue Sea weapons on Skypiea, but I don’t yet know how it can all be connected into a single whole. This may seem far-fetched.
Well.. I can say that Skypiea arc is definitely underrated by some fans and incredibly significant for the plot of the One Piece at the same time. Much in it remains unclear until Oda reveals the main mysteries of the history of the Void Century, so I think that Skypiea will definitely need to be reviewed and re-read when everything falls into place. I'm sure there will be a lot more that will surprise us about her after this.
P.S. I was also very surprised by the view of the Lvneel Kingdom from the flashback story of Mont Blanc Noland. This location in North Blue turned out to be surprisingly familiar from Law's flashback. Cora and Law stopped on this island when they have received information about the current location of the Ope-ope no mi fruit from Doflamingo. This was the place where Law's illness finally and irrevocably got worse. The place where the fateful direction of their joint path to its completion was outlined.
Tumblr media
This once again proves how living, breathing and permeated with numerous intertwined connections is the world invented by Oda. The Kingdom historically the place of the shameful execution (so obviously similar to the execution of Gol D. Roger) of the great liar and the trickster Noland, who in fact never really lied to anyone, also became the place of a turning point and a decisive moment in the destinies of Law and Rocinante, a kind-hearted and selfless man who was forced to become a liar with many masks, sharing Law's "checkered fate" and giving his life to save a dying boy carrying the burden of the mysterious initial D.
How much is it amazing.

Пересматривая Скайпию.
Буквально на днях я закончила пересматривать арку Скайпия, и теперь меня просто распирает от мыслей по поводу значимости ее сюжета! Попытаюсь вкратце их изложить.
Скажу сразу, некоторые из теорий я уже встречала раньше в сети, однако, особо не вчитывалась в них. Поэтому все эти мысли по поводу параллелей, предзнаменований и чеховских ружей, которые Ода щедро развесил в этой, без сомнения важной, да и просто потрясающей арке Ван Пис, пришли мне в голову вполне независимо от существующих теорий. Однако, думаю, будет честным признать, что они опираются на них.
Будет много текста и сумбурных мыслей, которые я попытаюсь сформулировать во что-то удобоваримое. И да, в конечном итоге я снова сведу весь свой анализ к проблеме Донкихотов, как вы уже могли догадаться. (¬‿¬) Поехали!
Очевидные параллели тут, прежде всего, отсылают нас к арке острова Эггхэд, выходящей в манге в настоящий момент. Также есть вполне очевидные отсылки к Дресс Розе. Здесь мне было интересно взглянуть свежим взглядом, прежде всего, на способности жрецов Энеля. «Скайрайдер» Сюра с его «Испытанием струн» напоминает мне, естественно, Дофламинго и силу его плода. А еще «Небесный заводчик» Ом: его клетка из колючей проволоки, созданной из железных облаков опять же отсылает к Доффи и его «Птичьей клетке». А гибкие атаки меча Ома с изменяющим форму облачным клинком очень похожи на боевые приемы Диаманте. Но жрецы применяют все эти техники, не используя силу каких-либо Дьявольских плодов. А также они не используют покрытие Волей, используя только Мантру (вариант Воли Наблюдения).
Сразу скажу, про некоторые странности поведения Луффи на Скайпии и все очевидные предвестники появления Ники я скажу всего пару слов. Отмечу лишь только то, насколько меня поразила сцена финального боя Луффи и Энеля — сколько там общего с аркой Вано и сражением с Кайдо. Тут и Вайпер, который, как и Ло с Кидом (лицезреющие мощь Пятого гира), наконец-то уверовал в Луффи и его силу, и так похоже кричащий, давай, мол, действуй, Мугивара! И мольбы простых жителей страны, наполняющие мощью и поддерживающие Луффи силой своих молитв. И само “оружие”, которым Луффи наносит свой финальный удар по противнику. Это пока ещё просто золотой шар на руке, а не настоящий Bajrang Gun, однако, так сильно на него похожий! А ещё древняя вера шандийцев в Бога Солнца, намеки на загадочную связь небесного народа с Иму, имеющая свое отражение в идолах Варсы, да и сам Энельфейс, который, скорее всего, был не просто шуткой Оды (о, да, я верю, что все эти странные и смешные лица, которые выдавали соперники и соратники Луффи — это не гэг, а проделки коварного Оды Ники, действующие тогда ещё против воли Луффи). На этом я особо останавливаться не буду. Поговорим о другом.
Прежде всего, я увидела достаточно намеков, подтверждающих довольно известную теорию о том, что Драгон, как и вся семья Манки Ди. Вполне может быть связана с шандийцами (правда, пока непонятно, почему в таком случае у них нет крыльев, если они родом из Шандоры). Сам Драгон внешне очень похож на Кальгару, а тату (рисунки?) на его лице – по стилю и начертанию – стилистически похожи на узоры на лицах, телах и одежде воинов Шандоры. К тому же, их главный жрец традиционно носит шапку с изображением головы собаки, что сильно напоминает головной убор дедули Гарпа. А ещё примечателен тот факт, что Драгона и Кальгару озвучивает один сейю Hidekatsu Shibata! Зная тенденцию Ванпис, это может оказаться больше, чем просто совпадением.
Параллельно с этой теорией я могу предположить, что Драгон может и не являться непосредственно представителем расы шандийцев, но при этом может быть связан с ними какими-то общими делами революционной армии. Ведь татуировки появились на его лице не сразу, а после каких-то определенных событий. Возможно, связанных с делами на Небесном острове. Ведь когда Мугивары прибывают на Небесный остров, пожилая леди с фотоаппаратом при Небесных Вратах спрашивала у них, являются ли прибывшие туристами (sightseeing) или воителями (fighters). Это значит, что Скайпию посещают не только туристы, а, возможно, и люди с иными целями, визита, например, революционеры.
К тому же я обратила внимание, что базуки и пистолеты шандийцев имеют очень узнаваемый дизайн оружия жителей Синего моря, и, скорее всего, также имеют кремниевое устройство, усиленное действием ракуш. А мы знаем две главные организации, хоть и имеющие кардинально разные цели, но связанные с оборотом оружия — революционная армия и… криминальная организация Джокера, то есть, снова Дофламинго. Это вполне может означать, что кто-то из них вполне мог поставлять небесным повстанцам оружие, исходя из каких-то своих, неясных нам пока, планов. Потому что сами скайпийцы подобным оружием практически не пользуются, хотя явно умеют с ним обращаться, судя по боевым навыкам обращения с Burn Bazooka милой Конис.
Далее, у меня много очень вопросов по поводу бога Энеля. Но о нем сложно строить теории, не до конца не представляя, в чем именно состоял изначальный конфликт жителей Неба и Земли, какие Энель преследовал цели, пытаясь сбросить Скайпию и все небесные острова с “незаконно” занимаемых ими мест (по его словам). Каковы вообще были его мотивы и причины уничтожать небесные острова.
Однако, я практически уверена, что это как-то связано с Мариджоа. Во-первых, Энель является обладателем на редкость мощного фрукта (логии, а, возможно, даже мифического Зоана божества грома Райдзин). Ведь на Небесных островах фруктовиков практически нет. А может и нет вовсе, не считая его самого и пары животных, которые также явно не местные изначально.
К тому же Энель не имеет крыльев, хотя является биркийцем (бирканцем). Каким образом он их лишился мы пока не знаем, но, возможно, это как-то связано с уничтожением его родного острова (Энелем ли? Это также вопрос). Тут должна отметить, что и загадочный монах Арудж аналогично похож на биркийца, исходя из изображений трёх крылатых рас на лунной фреске. �� с этим, остающимся до сих пор нераскрытым, представителем Сверхновых явно еще будет какая-то важная история насчёт притеснения и истребления рас и народов персонами, называющими себя богами. И, судя по тому, как Энель устраивает игры на выживание среди скайпийцев по подобию тех игр, что устраивали ради забавы тенрьюбито, уничтожая под корень различные расы, он, вероятно, должен об этом знать не понаслышке. Ну и вообще, хочу сказать, что его история в целом, чем-то напоминает своими образами и символизмом “Потерянный рай” Джона Мильтона. Где падший ангел бросает вызов Богу.
И тут начинается самая интересная для меня часть анализа.
Кого на острове Скайпия зовут Богом? Хоть уже и бывшим?
Ган фола.
А кто у нас, как известно, в мире Ван Пис считается богами? Тенрьюбито.
У Гана Фола также нет крыльев. И он явно не скайпиец. И вообще не из небесного народа.
Он явно назначен кем-то исполнять там роль бога. То есть, он буквально наместник богов на Скайпии, и сам себя называет наёмником.
Ну и, самое интересное, какой же образ выбрал Ода для этого персонажа???
Узнаваемый образ Дон Кихота из книги Сервантеса. Естественно, у меня тут же сложилось отчётливое впечатление, что он ... Донкихот.
Ну, то есть, мне буквально кажется, что это абсолютно прямой намёк Оды на то, что Ган Фолл может быть представителем семейства Донкихот! Ведь не случайно в сюжете уже появился Дофламинго, и мы услышали его фамилию! А после этого мы внезапно видим настолько очевидно узнаваемый образ из массовой культуры нового персонажа с неясным прошлым.
Ведь Ган Фолл обладает почти всеми особенностями этой злополучной семьи. (Не берём в расчет Доффи). Ган Фолл также немного не от мира сего, и его аналогично, по какой-то причине, тянет к обычной мирной жизни простого человека, о чем он сам и говорит, сообщая что добровольно отказался от титула бога.
Он называет себя Рыцарем неба (возможно ли, что он один из святых рыцарей, как и преподобный Фигарланд?) И, разумеется, он прекрасно осведомлен про Ди.
Ну и в нем, при желании, можно даже увидеть некоторое внешнее сходство с Донкихот Хомингом.
Тут я снова вспомню возможную причастность Дофламинго к появлению синеморского оружия на Скайпии, только пока не знаю, как это все можно связать в единое целое, чтобы не выглядело притянутым за уши.
Что ж.. Могу сказать, что Скай��ия однозначно недооцененная некоторыми фанатами и невероятно значимая для сюжета Ван Пис арка. Очень многое в ней остаётся пока непонятным — до раскрытия Одой основных загадок истории Потерянного века, поэтому я думаю, что Скайпию однозначно нужно будет пересмотреть и перечитать, когда все встанет на свои места. Уверена, нас ещё многое удивит в ней после этого.
П.С. А ещё меня очень удивил вид королевства Лвниил из истории Монблана Ноланда. Эта локация в Норт Блу оказалась удивительно знакомой по флешбеку Ло. На этом острове остановились Кора с Ло, когда узнали информацию о точном местоположении фрукта Опе-опе от Дофламинго. Место, где Ло окончательно и бесповоротно стало хуже. Место, где обозначилось роковое направление их совместного пути к его завершению.
Это ещё раз доказывает, насколько живой, дышащий и пронизанный многочисленными переплетающимися связями мир, придуманный Одой. Королевство, исторически являющееся местом позорной казни (а ведь как похоже ее исполнение на казнь Гол Д. Роджера) великого врунишки Ноланда, который на самом деле никогда не был никаким лжецом, стало и местом поворотного и решающего момента в судьбах Ло и Росинанта, добросердечного и бескорыстного человека, который был вынужден стать лжецом с множеством масок, разделившим “пёструю судьбу” Ло и отдавшим свою жизнь на спасение умирающего мальчика, несущего бремя загадочного инициала Ди.
Как же всё это впечатляет.

I saw this post on Twitter yesterday and thought, wow I wasn’t paying attention to that! Luffy holds Kikoku in his hands! And Law carefully guards his patient's most valuable thing while he regains consciousness after surgery. And there he trusts him his priceless katana again.
I think these moments demonstrate quite well how much trusts and belief Law puts in Luffy's power and his mighty at relationship and alliance with Mugiwara. For all his prickliness and irritability Law really believes that Luffy is the one on whom he can place all his hopes and entrust his own destiny. And he made the right choice when called this silly annoying rubber guy to Dressrosa to help ends his revenge.
Who are they to each other after this if not the real Nakama?
I'm really looking forward to their reunion in the future. I hope it will definitely happen. The mysterious motives of "will of D" and the bizzare "checkered fate" tied them together too tightly.
rus 👇
Я увидела этот пост в Твиттере и подумала — ничего себе, а ведь я не обращала на это внимания! Луффи держит в руках Кикоку, а Ло бережно хранит самое ценное имущество своего пациента, пока тот приходит в сознание после операции. И опять же, доверяет ему свой бесценный меч.
Думаю, эти моменты достаточно хорошо демонстрируют то, как много вкладывает Ло доверия, заботы и веры в силу и предназначение Луффи в свое отношение к нему. При всей его колючести и раздражительности он действительно верит, что Луффи именно тот, на кого можно возложить все свои упования, надежды и доверить судьбу. И он сделал правильный выбор, приведя этого назойливого и раздражающего резинового парня в Дресс Розу, чтобы помочь совершить возмездие.
Кто они после этого друг другу, как не самые настоящие Накама?
Я очень жду их воссоединения в будущем. Надеюсь, оно обязательно случится. Таинственные мотивы воли Ди и причудливая пестрая судьба слишком крепко связали их между собой.

Wow! This is a very interesting and detailed analysis of the meaning and symbolism of Law’s tattoos and his so-called art objects.
Especially the remark about the burning sacred heart and the religious symbols on his hands is amazed.
Law's artist side isn't talked about enough, so here's a smooth brain ramble.
He prefers abstract arts over realism. Unlike Kid who forms animal or skull figures with metals, Law creates strange 'sculptures' with his victim's bodies/belongings:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And, of course, the tattoos.
I like how all of his tattoos accentuate the shapes of his torso and arms, especially the joints and muscles. Combined they look like a single stylized drawing of human upper torso.
Seen theories that the tribal style could be a lost trend from Flevance (as seen on the arm of a miner in his flashback), but it could just be his personal style. That said, his upper arm's heart tattoos look similar.
Tumblr media
(Something that artists probably noticed long ago but I'm only noticing recently: Law's upper arm's tattoos have been simplified over time. There used to be two spiral-like protrusions, but Oda has been omitting them in later arts)
The "DEATH" tattoos have a straightforward message. According to the Law novel, these were his first tattoos.
Tumblr media
Speaking of death, ghosts and spirituality have been implicitly a theme for Law, especially during Dressrosa. Doflamingo referred to Law as Cora's 'vengeful ghost'. Law's (cursed) sword Kikoku's name means 'wailings of a restless ghost". Ironically, Law having a hidden name was also a tradition that related to dead people.
The orange jolly roger (red in the sail) could be many things, I think it's a stylized way of drawing the sun.
Tumblr media
Sun symbols are everywhere in the One Piece world. Law's lower arm tattoos are different types of 'suns'. Law might've subconsciously carried those symbols from his hometown for their aesthetic appeal.
Tumblr media
The tattoos on the back of his hands reminded me of the church lady's cross, which is slightly different from the cross seen at Kuma's church. It's possible that various faiths in One Piece world are interconnected, leading to a prophecy about the sun god and Dawn. Law, at the very least, believes in the will of D and his own fate being tied to a purpose.
The chest tattoo, clearly a tribute to Corazon, could have some elements of catholicism. Kikoku also has crosses all over its sheath. Originally this wasn't my observation, but Law seeing Cora as a sacred being makes a lot of sense.
Tumblr media
Carving a heart at the dead center of his chest by creating small wounds - the process itself reminds of Cora doesn't it
The custom-made Dressrosa coat is another tribute to Corazon, but IMHO he designed it specifically for Doflamingo, as a mockery.
Tumblr media
A cross and circle like dangling a pistol target for Doflamingo's shooting practice, with a grinning face copied from Doflamingo's own jolly roger, but it's Corazon. Like his brother has returned to face his pistol again. A vengeful ghost indeed
And boy did it work...
Doflamingo shot it until the mark was completely drenched and unrecognizable.
Tumblr media
Assuming he draws for all of his clothes himself, here's this masterpiece:
Tumblr media
Or maybe it's gifted by his crew mates. Either way, it's adorable.
Since he's a surgeon (and a comic nerd), he should be skilled at drawing human anatomy. How does he draw realistic arts? Does he doodle while taking notes?
We've seen his handwriting in punk hazard arc and it wasn't particularly stylized. Regardless, it'd be nice to take a proper peek at his notebook.

Oooh, I can't even believe the story is coming to an end. Everyone is alive and everything is almost fine (except Doffy's conscience). And how beautiful Cora is! They gave us more of the beautiful curly fuffy-haired Cora without his hood, yay!!! They gave us the bandaged alive and joyful survivor Cora. What more could you want from this life? @1000sunnygo thank you very much for the translation ❤️

Nami: The meeting from our side was held at a warehouse by the Port.
Vivi: Kaido, and the three "All-Stars..."
Coby: And executives called Tobi Roppo... we confirmed all of their presence.
Franky: Yamato wasn't there, though.
Robin: The zoom-zoom noise from the man named Queen didn't let us hear the conversation, but....
Brook:. It seemed their meeting this time was to boost everyone's morale.
Nami: But there's one thing that we didn't understand.
Usopp: Eh?
Tumblr media
Nami: Vergo sensei was present there.
[Introduction Box: New World Middle School, Vergo sensei]
Sanji: He came to teach us one day when Aokiji sensei was having a day off, didn't he...
Nami: And that's where it became strange. Just when we thought he'd take a seat,
he put on student's uniform!
Tumblr media
Robin: After exchanging greetings with Oni Middle's executives, he handed over some documents.
And then...
"I get it, Doffy"
We heard him mutter these words.
Sanji: "Doffy"? A connection with Doflamingo?
Robin: That's a possibility. To be precise, he could be one of Doflamingo's executives, living in the guise of a teacher.
Usopp: WHAT??
Zoro: A student? As a teacher??
Coby: Let's ask Doflamingo next time when Corazon san heals up!
!
Tumblr media
Cora: Yo, everyone!
Luffy: CORAO!!
Usopp: Doing good already?
Cora: Yep! Thanks to Law.
What about you guys? No class?
Nami: Aokiji sensei told us to self study. And to take a look outside the school building.
Cora: Sounds like Kuzan san, alright...

Oooh this is so funny and heartwarming 😳
One Piece where everything’s the same except Cora doesn’t die but Law’s still determined to absolutely beat the shit out of Doflamingo anyway. Cut to post Dressrosa where Law gets a VERY frantic phone call from Cora who’s like what the actual FUCK I saw the newspaper this morning you went up against Doffy all by yourself?? You promised me we would do this together you little SHIT do you have any idea how fucking scared out of my MIND I was when I saw the headline and I thought something happened to you, Law I swear to god, and Law’s like yes Cora I went up against him by myself, like HELL I was going to let him lay a single finger on you. And Cora’s like THAT’S MY LINE!!! You’re MY kid and I should be the one protecting YOU!! And Law’s like what with your shitty devil fruit powers? What could you have done? You would have fallen on your ass and gotten hurt or shot or worse and I’d be too fucking worried about you to focus on anything else. And Cora’s like this conversation is NOT over but I’m so so glad you’re okay. And he starts crying and he’s like oh my GOD Law you know how insane Doffy is I could have lost you. And I wouldn’t have even known until after the fact. And Law goes all quiet and he’s like I know I’m sorry but I could have lost YOU and I couldn’t handle that. I couldn’t. And Cora’s sobbing and he’s like I love you so much Law and Law’s like yeah. I love you too 🥺
Meanwhile the Strawhats witnessed this entire conversation and they’re like. Wow okay that was a lot to unpack. Law’s got a dad and they’re very protective of each other and apparently his dad is Doflamingo’s brother?? And Law literally dismantled Doflamingo’s entire criminal organization and DIDN’T bother telling his dad about it?? No wonder he’s pissed. And they’re also like awwwww we’ve never seen Law so soft and vulnerable before 💕 and Law looks at them and he’s like. You repeat ANY of what you just heard and I WILL kill you. And they’re like ‘Mhmm okay yup we hear you loud and clear. Btw what’s your dad like’ with the BIGGEST shit eating grins and Law’s like Okay! Killing you now!! And proceeds to chase them with his katana

I still can't figure out what kind of feelings I get when I look at these images of Rocinante without makeup (or tattoos). I can only say one thing — how absolutely handsom he is. When he frowns and doesn't smile, he even looks like his brother. But his smile... Roci's smile is completely different.
Check out all parts/links of these post if you haven't seen this @radio-knives edit yet, like me back in the day (my hyperfixation on Roci is about a year or smth). Personally I've got goosebumps when I first saw these images of Rocinante — it's like he's a completely different person at them. Without this mask his face is so vulnerable, cute, soft and beautiful 💔

When I see Robin crying happily, having just learned that her benefactor Saul is alive, I am reminded every time of the parallels of her story with Law's past. And I cherish the timid hope of seeing him with the same exact expression and emotions on his face 🥹 💔

Unanswered questions.
Tumblr media
Let me start by saying that I'm really looking forward to seeing Doflamingo appear again in One Piece. Yes of course, I am very interested in what role this charismatic scoundrel will play in the future and in the finale of the whole story. But I’m even more concerned about answers to questions related to the still unsolved mysteries of his past and everything connected with it.
I would really like to know:
• The real reason why the Donquixote family left The Holy Land of Mariejoise 38 years ago (and whether it has anything to do with the God's Valley incident).
• Is the outcome of this incident at all connected with such an incredible difference in the upbringing of the Donquixote brothers and the development of their characters (I recently wrote my thoughts on this matter).
• What exactly did the Homing's family know about the D heritage and the bearers of this initial (in particular, Rocinante, and how this influenced his fateful decision to save little Law at any cost).
• By whom and for what purposes was Trebol sent to Doffy (after all, it is obvious that the Donquixote family simply could not be left alone after their betrayal of the Celestial Dragons). What role did they prepare for him in the hierarchy of the world, and how successfully did he cope with it in the end? Here I would like to recall Trebol’s interesting phrase about Doffy, which Hody Jones also said to himself at one time. That they were chosen by Heaven itself. I wonder who really put these words in their heads? After all, by Heaven one can only mean one thing — the ruling elite.
• Well, we all remember the shackles on the legs of the defeated Trebol. What was that all about?
• To see confirmation that the Donquixote family had indeed been under constant surveillance ever since they moved out of Mariejoise. Confirmation that Doffy was deliberately taken in a timely manner, turning him to the dark side and turning him against his own father. At the same time, they grew a crown of greatness and superiority on the head of the heir to the Donquixote family. At the same time, they did not ignore Roci — after all, how quickly the Marines picked him up after the incident with his father. And it was not just anyone who found him, but Sengoku himself. What was he doing there in the North Blue? How did he end up there at the right time? Complete mysteries. And in general, how did it happen that the brothers were initially separated on opposite sides of the barricades — is it the hand of fate or is it someone’s intention?
• And finally, what the hell is wrong with Doffy's eyes! What has he been hiding under his glasses since early childhood? The consequences of some kind of injury, heterochromia, blindness in one eye, strabismus, or some rare feature that confirms the similarity with the eyes of Imu himself?
In a word, complete mysteries. Unanswered questions. However it will be all the more interesting to find out the answers to them. Of course if Oda sensei considers it necessary to answer them.
Russian translation below 👇
Вопросы без ответов.
Начну с того, что я очень жду, когда в сюжете One Piece снова появится Дофламинго. Да, разумеется, мне очень интересно, какую роль этот негодяй ещё сыграет в будущем и в финале всей истории. Но ещё больше меня волнуют ответы на вопросы, связанные с нераскрытыми до сих пор загадками его прошлого и всем тем, что с ним связано.
Я очень хотела бы узнать:
• Истинную причину, по которой семья Донкихот покинула Мариджоа 38 лет назад (и связано ли это с инцидентом в Долине Бога).
• Связан ли вообще исход этого инцидента с такой невероятной разницей в воспитании братьев Донкихот и становлении их характеров (я уже как-то писала недавно свои мысли по этому поводу).
• Что именно знали в семье Хоминга о наследии Ди и носителях этого инициала (в частности, Росинант, и как это повлияло на его судьбоносное решение спасти маленького Ло любой ценой).
• Кем и для каких целей был подослан Требол к Доффи (ведь очевидно же, что семью Донкихот просто физически не могли оставить в покое после их предательства тенрьюбито). Какую роль они ему готовили в иерархии мира, и насколько успешно он с ней справился в итоге.  Тут хочу вспомнить интересную фразу Требола про Доффи, которую также говорил в свое время и Ходи Джонс про себя. О том, что они были избраны самими небесами. Интересно, кто вложил эти слова в их головы на самом деле? Ведь под небесами можно подразумевать только одно — правящую верхушку.
• Ну и все мы помним кандалы на ногах побежденного Требола. Что это вообще было?
• Увидеть подтверждение того, что за семьёй Хоминга действительно непрестанно следили, с них пор, как они переселились из Мариджоа. И, соответственно, что своевременно взяли в оборот Доффи, настроив его против родного отца. При этом вырастив корону величия и превосходства на голове наследника семьи Донкихот. При этом они не оставили без внимания и Роси — ведь насколько же быстро его подобрал Дозор после убийства отца. И нашел его не кто-то, а сам Сенгоку. Что он вообще забыл в этом Норт Блу? Как он там оказался в нужный момент? Сплошные загадки. Да и в целом как так получилось, что братьев изначально развели по разные стороны баррикад — это рука судьбы или все же чей-то умысел?
• Ну и, наконец, что же, черт возьми, такое с глазами у Доффи! Что он скрывает под очками с самого раннего детства? Последствия какой-то травмы, гетерохромию, слепоту на один глаз, косоглазие или же какую-то редкую особенность, подтверждающую сходство с глазами самого Иму?
Одним словом, сплошные загадки. Вопросы без ответов. Однако, тем интереснее будет  узнать ответы на них, если, конечно, Ода посчитает нужным на них ответить.

And here are my long-awaited CMYK-haired dudes.
Tumblr media
It took them much longer to arrive than expected. Of course, all this was started solely for the sake of redrawing the art with Law and Corazon. I love these official arts, especially the way Cora-san looks at his charge. By the way, the art with Rocinante served as the basis for my lovely tattoo, so I simply had to try to redraw it! ☺️
And a something like a drawing process :)

Oooh, that calm and peaceful smile of Cora at the very end.. Author, what are you doing to us. Why does Cora's appearance in plot always bring suffering and drama to him and us? I understand that everything ends well in the chapter (probably) but... It's so emotional.
Also Luffy, Corao and Law's combined attack was epic as hell.
@1000sunnygo thank you so much!

Trebol: YOU GUYS ARE UNFAIR!! Did you hear about my weak spots from Corazon?? Cold;;
Sanji: Hn? Ditto.. Did we forget to say that?

Sanji: What? You follow MY plan!!
Trebol: Doffy~~!!

Doflamingo: Just because there are sunny spots, doesn't mean the world's all bright.

Doflamingo: I can hear voices... you're still standing?

Corazon, Law, and you... All of you are just weak!!
Luffy: You fool...
