all of the vegapunks speak quite distinctly, and from what i’ve seen, they all use different personal pronouns with different levels of formality! going in order from what we’ve seen so far:
1: shaka speaks quite formally (for a man, which i’m loosely assuming he is)- he uses watashi as his personal pronoun, which places him in a neutral/formal spot, and uses kimi to address the strawhats (which is somewhat diminuitive/maybe a little condescending) but omae to address dragon (conclusion: ???).
2: lilith speaks like a stereotypical old man- she uses washi as her personal pronoun and the masculine omae as her ‘you’ pronoun, and tends to use ja as her sentence-ending copula instead of da.
3: edison speaks kansai-ben (though i don’t know enough to say if it’s a specific subdialect)- he self-references with wai, which is a dialectal variant of the washi pronoun that lilith uses, and ends his sentences with ya in place of the regular da.
4: pythagoras is, from what we’ve seen so far, the most polite of the satellites- he’s the only one to consistently use polite verb forms.
5: atlas speaks probably the most aggressively, which suits her general demeanor but is very incongruous with her actual appearance- she uses the masculine ore for her first-person pronoun and omae for ‘you.’
6: haven’t really seen york speak yet besides, like, noises.

One Piece Theory Regarding the Vinsmokes' Genetic Modifications — Specifically Their Eyebrows
(Hopefully this hasn't been done already...)
Hypothesis:
Vinsmoke Judge's research into Human Modification involved Devil Fruits. Specifically, he was trying to give his children Devil Fruit abilities without drawbacks such as a weakness to water and Seastone/Kairōseki.
Evidence:
Tumblr media
Please take note of the image above. Notice any common denominators...? That's right, you guessed it — swirls! Every single fruit has swirls on it, whether on the body of the fruit itself or on the stem. And you know what else has swirls? The Vinsmoke siblings' eyebrows. In fact, if you look at certain fruits (such as the Gomu, Hana, Awa, Mochi, Bijo, and Ope fruits) you will notice that the stems look literally identical to the siblings' eyebrows. Coincidence? I think not!
Most of the siblings seem to each possess a unique ability that their fellow siblings do not share, almost as if they'd each eaten different Devil Fruits; Reiju has "Poison Pink" (poison fruit?), Ichiji has "Sparking Red" (spark fruit?), and Yonji has "Winch Green" (winch fruit???).
Thanks to Caesar Clown and his SMILE fruits, we know that it's canonically possible for a person to artificially replicate the effects of a Devil Fruit.
Caesar's faulty fruits lacked the distinct swirls present on actual Devil Fruits; Thus, there is likely a connection between the lack of swirls, and the fact that the SMILE fruits are faulty.
[Spoiler Alert for Chapters 698 and 840] Both Judge and Caesar based their scientific experiments on the "Lineage Factor" (referred to as the "blueprint of life itself, present in all living organisms") that was discovered by both Vegapunk and Judge working together — without it, neither the Vinsmokes' genetic modifications nor Caesar's SMILEs would have been possible. In other words, their experiments are intrinsically linked with one another.
[Spoiler Alert for Chapters 1077-1078] Vinsmoke Judge and Caesar Clown, both previously members of MADS — an illegal scientific research institute headed by Vegapunk himself — have recently joined forces to create their own organization which they have dubbed NEO MADS. Why is this relevant? Because if you consider the previous points of evidence... Caesar Clown has succeeded in creating faulty, mock Devil Fruits that are lacking the swirls characteristic of real Devil Fruits. Vinsmoke Judge has succeeded in creating genetically modified humans with superhuman abilities who possess swirly eyebrows reminiscent of Devil Fruits. Caesar has the fruits, Judge has the swirls... Combine them, and you just might get a fully functional artificial Devil Fruit.
...Okay, that got a bit away from there.
But what I was trying to say is that I believe the swirly eyebrows to be related to Devil Fruits since (1) they both have similar swirls, and (2) because I know that Judge and Caesar have recently teamed up, and the only thing that was missing from Caesar's SMILEs (visually, at least) was the swirls.
Creator of Non-Swirly Fruit + Creator of Swirly Eyebrows = Creation of Swirly Fruit. Yes?
Yes.
Also relevant: [Spoiler Alert for Chapter 1007] Apparently Dr. Vegapunk was able to create a mostly-but-not-totally-successful replica of a Devil Fruit — the Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu — that was unintentionally eaten by Momonosuke.
He was only able to do this thanks to his knowledge of the Lineage Factor, and access to Kaidou's own.
In other words!
TL;DR:
The creation of artificial Devil Fruits and the genetic modification of the Vinsmoke siblings are intrinsically linked via the Lineage Factor.
Because of this, I believe that Judge's genetic modifications and experiments on his children involved Devil Fruits in some way, shape, or form — and that is why their eyebrows swirl like the stems of Devil Fruits.

vegapunk is sora's brother
Tumblr media Tumblr media
one of the only people left who are connected to his mother and someone he swore to protect. I think there are two ways for him to find out 1.Judge arrive and he tells him or 2. and what I would prefer happens, Vegapunk lets it slip in his last moments that she is his sister 1:59 PM · Feb 23, 2024 · 25 Views
JJtheman5👒⭐⭐⭐ @Jtheman51 · 40m maybe because Sanji reminds him of her and in his last moments he calls out to her and Sanji is shocked he would know her and he tells him they were related and he was the one who made that medicine, though he would blame himself for letting Judge experiment on her JJtheman5👒⭐⭐⭐ @Jtheman51 · 39m and not be able to protect her. Sanji would tell him that he didn't fail and he managed to save him. Vegapunk's death especially at the hands of someone he considered a friend would leave Sanji enraged and cause him to go off fighting Kizaru/Saturn, most likely the former JJtheman5👒⭐⭐⭐ @Jtheman51 · 38m as he would consider him a coward for killing someone he loved due to his job. And he would probably stop him from destroying the labo-dome which is likely what is broadcasting his message to the world. Also, I really want Sanji to use Ifrit Jambe and stop holding back
there are tons of parallels with saobody and egghead island I always thought there would be a parallel to this moment
where he freaks out over not saving 2 of his allies and after ussop is repelled he rushes in in to
Tumblr media
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
kizaru is a perfect opponent for sanji ( someone whose bio father wanted to turn him into an unfeeling soldier who could only obey his orders ) while sora sacrificed her life to preserve his emotions JJtheman5👒⭐⭐⭐ @Jtheman51 And the way Kizaru acts putting the orders above how he feels is a perfect parallel who only acts due to his love. Kizaru represents a cold warrior of science (light) while Sanji is a warrior of his emotions (love)

If Vegapunk's theory ends up being right & devil fruits are just the wishes that people had and became real, One Piece's world must have A LOT of furries and otherkin in it

Spoiler Chapter 1100
I'm finally catching up on One Piece and well, next time someone says "But Franky is just a Robot!" we can tell them...
Tumblr media
"Removing the human will from a cyborg just turns it into a simple Robot."
So, Franky is not a robot, he has a human will and so is a cyborg.

🎵 He worked for the special science group, just a humble genius with rocket boots. He poked around secrets he shouldn't know, so they sent a scary kitty and the lab is gonna blow! We'll watch some cheesy movies, the worst in York's stash. In the hopes we lay low long enough for the government to crash.🎵

(Chapter 1066 spoilers)
Vegapunk (Shaka 1) speaks:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Save the books. Who heard? History is our greatest treasure. It must be preserved. Who heard?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The real Dr Vegapunk shows his face on Ohara in a chance meeting with Dragon (33 years old, 3 years older than Robin is now). We don't see the face of the captain of the giants. They're collecting the books the scholars of Ohara threw into the lake.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ahh. My heart. Oda didn't make Robin ugly cry, but it's not stupidly beautiful either, and I can imagine her having to take a huge sniff**** and God but this picture got me in the feels. Queen. She's legend. (Plus, I love Saul).
Tumblr media
And the Will of Ohara lives on, and I know it's presumptuous to think that the initial D. stands for an English word, but what it stands for Doctors? I don' t think it will, but with that atomic-cloud-looking tree of knowledge and the scholars being fully respected and always persecuted when it comes to unjust rule. Perhaps?
Tumblr media
Dragon without tats, and both men bearing flowers.
Tumblr media
The black and speckled shading behind the frames. The fire that burnt and that's still burning.

okay i did laugh. the name of vegapunk's devil fruit is the ノミノミの実/nomi nomi no mi (since the 'fruit' part of a devil fruit's name is の実/no mi in japanese) which is why as he's introducing himself he messes up by repeating nomi a few too many times. it's named after the word 脳みそ/noumiso, which is 'brains/brain tissue.'

One Piece 1059 was insane with info and questions.
And I have things to say about it.
Firstly, the reveal that Shakky was the Empress of Amazon Lily a while back is a surprise I should have seen coming. I love the implications of it, many of which I will get into.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Seraphim Pacafistas seemingly being Lunarian child versions of Hancock and Mihawk is a very interesting concept, and opens the door to the very likely theory that there are AT LEAST 5 more modeled after the child versions of the other original Warlords, plus maybe newer ones like Law, Teach, and Weevil. (This would also mean a child Buggy Pacafista, which I hope gets wrecked with minimal effort because even with Lunarian powers he’s a joke.) Also, with the long running theory that Crocodile’s secret Ivankov has been keeping is that he is a trans man, seeing his child self could wind up proving things once and for all.
But what I really wonder with these Seraphim Pacafistas is if it was limited to just the Warlords. Perhaps they can recreate other pirate legends, and we might see a young Gol D. Roger Pacafista too… one who subsequently looks a lot like Ace, and Luffy might struggle to fight.
It’s hard to say if Teach would really get any use out of Hancock’s power, since it’s only ever worked if you’re attracted to her, but perhaps that’s a misdirection like the nature of Luffy’s fruit had been. It could be she actually has a Mythic Zoan type for Medusa or the like, and it could be applied to more than just those with romantic hearts but she’s only scratched the surface. Her sisters got snake-based Zoan fruits, it would make a certain amount of sense if her “Gorgon’s Curse” was more true than she realized.
Capturing Koby is a bold strategy for Blackbeard, perhaps he’ll try to turn him over to the Cross Guild to collect the bounty on him. That would put the lad in a position to meet Alvida again, and I look forward to the potential such a meeting holds.
However, the meatiest theories (and they are not my own, I am just sharing them here) have to do with Shakky. Characters having only one name is pretty common in this series (half the Straw Hats don’t have last names, for example), but it’s become my theory that Shakky is not simply just Shakky. Behold, former Kuja Empress:
Boa Shakuyaku
Tumblr media
I know we give Oda a lot of shit for his “women have the same face” syndrome, but she and Hancock really do have a lot of similar features so I firmly do believe she could be Hancock’s mother.
Tumblr media
Plus, the ages work well to support it with Shakky being 64 and Hancock being 31. Whether or not this means she’s also the mother of Marigold and Sandersonia is a bit more difficult to be confident about. But latent gigantism in people’s genetics happens pretty often in this world, so it’s not terribly farfetched.
With the revelation that Shakky was Kuja Empress comes the question of how she met Rayleigh, and I have a few theories on this too. Either they crossed paths while he was with Roger and she was leading the Kuja, or maybe... just maybe... after she had her daughter(s) from some other man and the Boa sisters were abducted, the two met on the hunt to find the girls and they hit it off while bringing the girls home once they had been liberated by Fisher Tiger? It’s hard to say if Rayleigh is Hancock’s father, and I’m not putting too much stock in that idea by comparison.
However. I have an even more out there theory that I think really ties some loose ends of the universe together and draws on real mythology in a way we know Oda loves to do. Shakky wasn’t just a pirate for the Kuja. She was part of a far more dangerous group:
Tumblr media
The Rocks Pirates.
According to Greek mythology, during the time of the Trojan War the Amazons were lead by a queen named Penthesileia, who fought with a silver battle axe. While we have gotten next to no information about the Rocks Pirates outside of the most all-star alumni, how little they got along, and what a great battle taking them down at God Valley was, we do hear a few other names dropped for who was in this crew’s ranks. Shiki “the Golden Lion”, Captain John (whose treasure Buggy keeps wanting to find), Wang Zhi (Who apparently lost ownership of Fulla-Lead Island to Blackbeard thanks to the events of the Rocky Port Incident), and... “Silver Axe”. Now I may just be stretching so far you’d think I ate the Gum Gum Fruit, but that sounds like the epitaph of an Amazon Empress turned pirate. Even if it wasn’t Shakky herself, Oda seems like the type to use this as a way to reference obscure Greek mythology and say there was a Kuja Amazon in the Rocks Pirates, especially with the current Empress Boa Hancock having a Medusa related power.
So until further notice, I will believe that the Rocks Pirates included “Silver Axe” Boa Shakuyaku. And it would be a heck of a meet cute if she met Rayleigh while they were on opposites sides of the God Valley incident and hit it off really well in the aftermath. Speaking of whom, his name being Silvers Rayleigh would make it even better of a connection if she was “Silver Axe” Shakuyaku. Yet another reason for them to get along!
