So I know that a lot has been said about Sabo being a Replacement Ace, and there have been comparisons between Law and Nami (or Law and Robin (and I even saw Law as just a different flavor of Mihawk once, rawr)), but I would like to propose for the internet’s consideration: Law as a Replacement Ace.
Tall, dark, and handsome? Check.
Super-overpowered Devil Fruit? Check.
Tattoos? Check.
Delightfully allergic to shirts? Check.
Fun hat? Check.
“Why the fck is this adult man putting up with Luffy?” Check.
Secret name? Check.
Shipped with Nami, Zoro, Sanji, and Luffy with varying success rates? Check.
Survived the torching of their home? Check.
Broody little shit who surrounded himself with delightful loonies after leaving home? Check.
Fucked over by the WG? Check. Multiple times? Double-check.
Entire existence very specifically irritates Sengoku? Check.
Offered Warlord status? Check.
Adopted by a Very Tall Man? Check.
After living with a bunch of weirdos who love in their own way I guess? Check.
Adventures with the Straw Hats, featuring Smoker and Tashigi? Check.
An adventure that was a side-quest before toppling a Warlord unjustly ruling a hot-climate kingdom? Check.
Got into a fight with Blackbeard while I was in the middle of writing fic with them as semi-to-major players? CHECK.
In conclusion, these two men from polar opposite Blues share a lot of the same beats and I dig it. Except pls one of you two needs to stay safe and we only have one option left. I mean, there’s so many characters in this series that it’s highly unlikely one won’t start seeing some patterns, but you know... it’s just neat to notice.
Now Luffy just needs to learn what happened in ch.1081 and snap into Friend Protecc Mode.
