YES! I meant acronym instead of anagram. You want to know what's funnier? I actually re-recorded that line after realising I said the wrong thing and then promptly forgot to edit it into the video. Now if that sort of idiocy isn't worth a subscribe then I don't know what is.
I think we'll get a Rocks flashback when Shiki makes himself known. At the end of chapter 0, it's stated that whatever his plan is will happen at least 20 years from that day
OP flashbacks are mostly if not all were important things to be just skipped... While for Naruto flashbacks sometimes are just nothing..plus too many filler episodes and to make it worse those filler episode also have non-beneficial flashbacks...
I remeber when i stopped watching naruto , i saw the same scene flashbacked to 12 times in 3 episodes , or something ridiculous . But it was alot in a unwarranted amount of time . Its like the crying in one piece , its emotional then after 5 mins irritating
Tbh that’d be kinda nice to see he just says something that pisses off rocks so he just smacks him and mop the ship while everyone else laughs and a tear drops from his eyes and then he says sum like “just wait until I’m on top of the world” and now it’s actually happened he’s grown up to be such a tough guy where everyone in the world fears him
@@JadeSpecter It's mounty python reference. A classic. Just search Bigus dickus on youtube. It's a sketch placed in roman/biblical times. For me, It wasn't even funny the first time. But it grew on me. But every time you watch
it never truely occurred to me, how much of a beast Rocks D Xebec must have been... the 3 strongest known people in the world and a whole crew of other badies all kept dirrectly under him in a system where everyone is literally killing eachother over competition... He must have been a monster in strength in some way.
Isn’t Xebec related to the “ D “ family, as well as being the father to Marshall D Teach? If so, then I’m not surprised. JoyBoy literally birthed a family of OP people aka Xebec; Rodgers, Saul, Trefalgar, and Saul. Which then multiplied to Dragon, Ace, Luffy, Sabo, Teach, Law, and Shanks. Which brings me the question, how strong is JoyBoy? Dude literally has a family of Aloha Males and Psychopaths 😱
@@Roasty420 Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Xebec turns out to be One Piece's equivalent of Madara Uchiha (Naruto). I'd be willing to bet money that he could've taken on Prime Whitebeard even better than the Admirals did against Marineford-era Whitebeard.
7:08 we do actually have some idea who they are. When Captain John appears on Thriller Bark there are two other zombies standing right beside him. One carries a silver axe and the other looks like a typical depiction of an ancient chinese general. So i'd be really surprised if this was a coincidence.
Maybe back then Oda had a different story for Kaido in mind, like a similar one that Rocks got now. And he changed his plan along the way and created the Rocks-character.
if that was what he did when he was alive that'd hype me up something fierce.(would love to see a shonen jump ova/manga one shot like cross epoch/movie with a similar style to one piece stampede especially seeing luffy meet gon,ichigo,gintoki,medaka,lala,chitoge,the z fighters,the joestars,tanjuro & nezuko,midoriya & koro sensei.:3)
I think Shanks is somehow related to Xebec. I also think Xebec's death started Kaido's lust for a grand death or death in general. Then Shiki and/or Big Mom saved Kaido from the God Valley incident resulting in the favor he owes BM or the admiration he had for Shiki.
You mean that's why He lost. Because he didn't. He got as far as mortals can go, but didn't have a chance against Roger's plot armor 2.0 aka *Subscribe Armor* .
I think the rocks pirates are really similar to the flying gang. A pirate group formed by the most infamous pirates of the time. They also controlled an island called the republic of pirates, in Nassau, and it was said that there were close to a 1000 pirates present in the island. Also the two who enstablished the group and controlled the island , Benjamin Hornigold and Henry Jennings, were bitter rivals. They were mentors of some of the greatest and most famous pirates, like Calico Jack, Edward Teach (Blackbeard), Charles Vane and many more.
Can you imagine Shakky and Rayleigh facing at God Valley, falling in love "at first clash", with Rayleigh saving her from God Valley's destruction and let her at Sabaody for recovery, eventually returning and marrying her? Would be another crazy interaction within One Piece :O
Also do you think rocks had the dark dark fruit before Blackbeard but we know that when big mom and kaido die Blackbeard will be the next antagonist bigger and stronger than those two combined
@@ProGamer___ You got a point if he knew that Teach killed a crew member for his former Captain's Fruit he should have sent the whole crew after him I think... But then again WhiteBeard was old and never sent anyone to check on Oden... Alzimers must have hit poor Edward pretty hard.
@Chaden Kozuki Fodder of Wano what? We don't know any of that but if i were to assume it way more logical wb /shiki and the others betrayed xebec and left him to die it would.also explain why kaido always talk about how.pirayes would betray each other if they see they are on the losing side
I would love a movie on the god valley conflict following Gol D. Rodger, Garp and ROCKS. Maybe after Luffy finds laugh tale because I think we would know everything there was about ROCKS by then.
@@SimplyTippins it was specifically mentioned that befor Roger PIRATES, Rocks PIRATES were prominent, they were mentioned as a collective group, so i highly doubt that brook will know only rocks and not his entire crew .....
What if Xebec was hunting Imu? It might explain why he sought the big names of his time. What I can’t figure out is why Roger and Garp would protect the nobles. Maybe they saw Xebec as the bigger threat that had to be taken out and thought the world government was more manageable (since in my assumption, I am operating with the idea that only Xebec found out about Imu).
This is what I think Dragon is really Rocks son and Garp adopted Dragon like he did Ace. That's why Roger knew he would take care of his son because Garp took care of Dragon
Despite all of these are just fictional characters in an animated story line, hearing these names and their takes of terror sends literal shivers down my spine and hyping up excitement every time a new reveal is shown in the manga... Goda is Goda!
The Return To The Reverie comic displayed Shakuyaku and Bakkin as members of the Rocks. This is an idea I like. Not only does it add more of a female presence with characters who make sense, but it also adds depth to the relationship between Shakky and Rayleigh. They came from rival crews, yet they fell in love as mature people. That’s a pretty neat story if you ask me.
2:28 chapter 957 the best of the best we've seen so far in One Piece that panel is my favorite. It's crazy to think this crew were brutalizing each other for a position I don't know any pirate crew in the series (apart from ROCKS) that are like that.
@@muhammadarsalan3337 Though it must be remembered that even Kaido doesn´t let his top tier fighters battle against each other all the time for the higher position.
i think its worth pointing out that at the beginning of wano kaido said "theres too many people with conquerors haki" which alludes to his time on the rocks crew where everyone had it
I would love to see what would happen if a yonkou and or yonkou commander were to kill a world noble, whether or not an admiral would be sent, or if they would send a fleet, or just ignore it completely
I love that you talked about Shaki! I really want to know more about her backstory (and also he skincare routine, she doesn't look like shes probably as old as Rayleigh, but chances are she is)
I have a theory that Rocks once have a Cerberus Devil fruit that makes him eat 2 other devil fruits like blackbeard did. I think Blackbeard has the memories of Rocks because he ate his devil fruit (Cerberus has 3 heads, 2 of the heads may have its own memories of its past)... Thats why he exactly knows how to extract devil fruit. Another one for this is that in Marineford, Blackbeard hinted that he's the one that wounded Shanks on the face but Shanks already had that wound when he met Luffy in the past. Luffy and Ace that time was only young and Blackbeard was one of the members of Ace. Unless Whitebeard and Shanks fought, but knowing that Whitebeard is strong he wouldn't let Teach get involved in his fight with Shanks...
And there's that whole interview where Oda said Shanks real name was Loggs D. Shanks. Which is really funny, because back then (2010) we had no idea who Rocks was (which explains the wrong romanization) giving this mythical interview a lot more credibility.
@@ryanveiga5477 You can Google "Loggs D. Shanks" (with quotation marks). Most forums from back then are gone by now, but some still remain. www.mobilarian.com/showthread.php?t=125421&page=269 Edit: Here's another two, both from 2011 (again, most forums are gone, so Google Translate is inevitable): www.fxp.co.il/showthread.php?t=8859209&page=79 detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q1261039502
@@Ebola-Kun Seriously? We don't know. It wasn't recorded and most information about it is now gone. It's more than likely that the interview did actually happen though, given that it contained a name that wouldn't be revealed in years to come. If anyone, only Oda should know about "Rocks" in 2010. But that's about it, we don't know the context, we don't know the tone, we don't know if Oda changed his mind since then. All we know is that the name Loggs/Locks/Rocks D. Shanks was said to be Shanks's full name.
We know that big mom and kaido were apprentices of rocks was Whitebeard the right hand of rocks and Shiki the left hand of rocks send those two were at the level of Rodger
kurozumi higurashi actually used her fruit ability to transform into shiki, so we've technically seen what he looks like (at least 20-30 years ago) in the canon story.
@Jordan Vance It would make no sense, if one of the three great pirates of the old pirate era (Shiki) is still alive, while the other two (Roger and Whitebeard) are dead.
I wanna know why big mom was a huge child but skinny during the rocks pirates and now she is large again. When did she start having babies? Was she a ships wench and passed around? The image of lin lin in the rocks pirates litterally makes no sense.
Great job on this video I really enjoyed it. Interesting unrelated theory: I always thought that load star would be destroyed or controlled by the world government for sharing the information about road ponegliphs considering what we know they likely still share the information about road ponegliphs to pirates who reach the island maybe the world government can’t reach it for some reason or maybe its protected by a yonko likely shanks.
I feel like it's no coincidence that Rocks is just as small as Luffy. Usually the most powerful characters in the series are always the most normal sized.
Thanks for this video and you joked during your intro but why not for R.O.C.K.S : Rocks O (Ornella Shakky or Ornella Bakkin xD) Charlotte Kaido Shiki We don't have Newgate because he is not an antagonist maybe x)
Ok, thought of something kind of going along with the inherited will thing. What if, in order to beat Blackbeard, Luffy teamed up with Koby kind of like Roger and Garp. Just thought that might be kind of cool
Now this is what I'm talking about. Now you see why they accepted Roger as the king of the pirates. Not just he finding the one piece or the big news and ect, but he has the feats to become the king and his personality added as well. Great video Boss! U made my day, it's nice to see that we are at the same ship again.
New video shows up on my feed.. Me: I can't possibly have any new info reveal on this topic! It's so recent, I know everything about it.. Me atleast on 4-5 occasions: Really? 😱 What would I do without you @GLR?
idk if you have but if not, do you think you could make a video about Rogers sickness that he had that gave him one year left to live. i just find that interesting, because strong characters in one piece dont succumb so easily to things that would affect normal people.
The timeline matches. Rocks was defeated 38 years ago. Blackbeard is 40 years old. Maybe Teach was born in Hachinosu/Fullolead Island? Also, Xebec was said to engage in many taboos in his opposition to the World Government. Maybe something he did explains why Blackbeard is different and able to obtain two Devil Fruit powers.
@@tiagomoreira8905 One crazy thought I had was that maybe Blackbeard is Xebec. They mention how he has a strange body or something like that to explain his multiple devil fruits. Its also mentioned that Xebec knew about or was at least aware of the secrets of the World Nobles What if that strange body allowed him to have a longer lifespan than normal or he discovered a secret of the Tennryubito that has made him sort of immortal?
Crazy that Roger barely escaped xebec in the past while Luffy escaped blackbeard several times in the present (Knock up stream, ace intervening etc.) I think Oda’s drawing some parallels
I think Xebec D. Rocks had been a holder of the Dark Dark Fruit as well. I don’t have any proof, but it would make sense why Xebec was able to handle the 3 yonkos in his crew, and why Blackbeard was looking for it.
On Captain John 2 things to consider -The soul moving capital Johns body on Moria's command was not his own, so it was a random pirate's soul in an stupidly strong decaying body, that's why they were able to defeat him so easily -He amazed the biggest confirmed fortune as a pirate known to man, this is why buggy looks for treasure, and this was in part because he was stupidly greedy, greedy enough for his entire crew to rebel and kill him
Yh I heard that Theory but what I dont understand is why would Xebecs son be on his rivals ship crew. My theory is that shanks always wanted to kill gol d roger
Jatvy. I have a feeling that Shanks its a enemy for Pirates , some how Marine never attack him and how did he end the war when Whitebeard and Ace died?
She had horrible eating choices as a kid. As she got older she ate healthy food. Then she went back to those bad eating choices after leaving the Rocks pirates...thus the weight gains.
Maybe Garp and Roger joining forces is what led to the Shichibukai system. Having strong pirates fight on the side of the Marines while still doing there own thing. Its great Issho dispanded the sytem cause we now get to see where these characters truly stand in power when getting chased by the world gov. I think Mihawk may find temporary refuse with Shanks. As for Boa and Koby...They both have a relationship with Luffy so he may be their mutual agreement.
