Maybe WG did something to Arabasta Royal Families (or Arabasta Kingdom) as a start of World Mass Cleansing and make up some story blaming Sabo and Revolutionary Army as the culprit.

Iām guessing Sabo is still alive at least. It wouldnāt make narrative sense to have left it so mysterious otherwise.

Ok ok its not getting dull. Geezā¦
I think Sabo has been either captured, framed, or both. The abolishment of the Shichibukai system was a long time coming; if the World Government didnāt cast a blind eye to all the transgressions of their bad apples maybe this wouldnāt have happened. But now the WG is definitely weak. Unless Im has or is a secret weapon, the balance has shifted heavily towards the Yonkou and pirates overall.
āBig Birdā Morgans can throw dem wingsā¦ er hands though, that was a surpriseā¦

Is Saboās situation the answer to where the plotās going to go after the Wano arc?
probably yes. though with the amount of time its may take for the situation between luffy and the yonko alliance between big mom and kaido may take so long that the sabo situation may be resolved outside of his control. another off camera or in the mangas case off panel fight may happen. not to mention the fact that i dont see how luffy can get out of this one. i mean his training is cool but i still dont know how much of a impact thats gonna have on his next encounter with them. the only way i can see so far is somehow they must turn big mom and kaido against each other again. stability of that relationship always shaky with how it was forged. if the straw hats can take on them one at a time you have a small chance.
shichibukai were always expendable. they have out lived their usefulness. doflamingo, crocodile were beaten by luffy,
buggy is living off of old wartales
boa loves luffy and defended him at the marine war
mihawk doesnt actually do much. and despite his power offered very little resistance at marine fold and made zoro, a enemy of the WG stronger.
teach defected and is a yonko and moria is with him
law obviously is in cahoots with luffy as well as jinbe
weevil hasnt really done much except beat white beard affiliates.
so the system is pointless. luffy and crew are lucky they dont have to deal with this at the moment but having 2 yonko in the same spot may mean the world government goes for a risky play and tries one of their secret weapons to extinguish them both along with the Straw hat/heart alliance. timing is key and the opportunity is there.

Okay time to unpack:
I cannot place a theory on what happened to Alabasta. @white_shadow? any thoughts?
Morgans got some fight in him! Color me surprisedā¦but also Wapol has leaked info? What DOES Wapol know? Something from the Reverie?
Sabo logically has either been captured or framed for something. No way he died and especially not off screen. Maybe a death could be faked? Then again the reactions from the Goa Kingdom could imply a death? Either way this leads to another point regardingā¦
Negrobeard! Heās making his moveā¦is it to capture the Revolutionaries? I feel this cements that Sabo is captured and possibly the other guys tooā¦Jesus was trying to get the Mera Mera Fruit so thatās my bet on what theyāre off to get.
X Drake is still a Marine. Just undercover. Note pre time skip, he took a kick from Kizaru back at Sabaody so either both are that committed orā¦the unit he is in is that top secret. Who knows of this Sword unit? And Coby is part of it too? Speaking of Koby heā¦
Koby is now a Rear Admiral! heās leveling up quite a bit and I bet he was partly motivated by Straw Hat after seeing him in the paper when his bounty went up. I hope we get to see Koby in action. We just may get that as heās heading towards Amazon Lily. Why? Wellā¦
The Warlords are disbanded and effective immediately are now under attack by Marines in various areas. Buggy gonna Buggy no surprise there. Mihawk looks like heās interested in fightingā¦but I doubt it will be any challenge for him. Weevil Iām for now kinda meh on but weāll see if his encounter will go anywhere. Boa Hancock about to flex her advanced Haki skills on the Marinesā¦but with Koby taking point on her, I wonder how will it go?

oohā¦ no comment on 957 spoiler?
one of spoiler provider even describe it as the best OP chapter so far.
[spoiler]I hope Rox is Potgas, Potgas D Rox because this will explain why Gorosei mentioning Potgas name in chapter 594 page 3.
with Roger bounty was 5.5 billion beri, some fans theorized that Luffyās end of series bounty when he becoming the Pirate King will be 5.6 billion beri because of Gomu = 5,6.
another thing is, if WB bounty was 5 billion beri, is this mean that Dragonās bounty is >5b beri. If thrue I hope that Dragonās bounty at best will be more than 5b beri but at best the same as Rogerās. [/spoiler]
I was about to say wtf were you saying then I dug a bit and this drives things up to another level. I was going to mention last week if they ever will reveal the bounties of the former warlords but this is even better

Damn itā¦
[spoiler]I was wrong about Rocks name. Heās name is Rocks D Xebec.
I really hope that fanās theory about him being BB father is not true butā¦
BB shipās name is Sword of Xebec.
BB himself is 38 years old.
Rocks died around 38-40 years ago.

Captain John thoughā¦ didnt expect him to be in that legendary pirate crew. He must be like Buggy in Rogerās Pirate.

The future of the WG and Marine now is at the hand of SSG??!!

Summary
Sengoku: Kaido and Big Mom, it is true that they used to be on the same ship, however, their current strength is on a whole different level than it is 38 years ago. If the information on their āallianceā is true, then the worst pirate crew in the world is about to be borne.
Brannew!! What are the current bounties of those two?
Brannew: Oh yes, we are working on the new bounties of those who have been stripped of their Warlord position.
Letās review all of their bounties.
āFirst, we have āBlackbeardā, whom people started to call an Emperor about a year ago. He obtained strong subordinates during the attack on Impel Down 2 years ago. Right now heās the ārulerā of Pirate Island Beehive. Heās the new power that replaced Whitebeard, and heās still growing.
The admiral of āBlackbeard Piratesā, Marshall āDā Teach!! Bounty: 2.2476 billion berries!!!
āNext, we have him whoās been call an Emperor for 6 years, the youngest of the four and heās trusted by his subordinates.
Beckman, Roo, and Yasoppā¦his commanders make a name for themselves one after another. Known for having a high average bounty among the members, the crew with the best balance, a impregnable crew.
The leader of āRedHair Piratesā, āRedHair Shanksā!!! Bounty: 4.0489 billion berries!!!
Next, it is said that she attacked a village of Elbaf when sheās just a child. A natural born monster!! She is a dictator queen who doesnāt believe anything other than bloodline, and created a bizarre country known as āTotto Landā with her 85 children.
Captain of āBig Mom Piratesā, Charlotte LinLin!!!
Bounty: 4.388 billion berries!!!
Andāeven though he was just a āpirate apprenticeā at the āRocks Piratesāā¦later his personal strength attracts the respect of groups of brutal pirates, to the point of being call an Emperor.
The General of āBeasts Piratesā, āKaido of the Beastsā. Bounty: 4.6111 billion berries!!!
From now on, weāll not be able to use the āWarlordsā against the āFour Emperorsā!! Whether the choice of omitting those poisonous ones is correct or not, is depended on the future work of SSG, the special science corp of Marine.
āBy the way weāll also review the bounties of those legenardy men.
Captain of āWhitebeard Piratesā, Edward Newgate!! Bounty: 5 billion berries!!!
Captain of āRoger Piratesā, the āPirate Kingā Gold Roger, bounty: 5.5 billion berries!!!
[spoiler]So, Shank crew is much like Rogerās. Small crew but with top tier guys.[/spoiler]
Sorry for the delayed response, I have to scroll past these spoilers so this post might be irrelevant anyway. I think there mightāve been some attempt to do away with the royal Nefertari family by the WG aka Im due to how they rejected becoming Celestial Dragons and are secret allies of the Strawhats. Also, there might be a chance that although the blueprints for Pluton were destroyed by Franky, the actual ship might exist in Alabasta.

Godamn Oda is throwing out clues left and right. But I canāt really figure it out for now. Ill wait for @white_shadow (white_oda)'s analysis.
Garp was a monster back then! Oda is insane at world building.
Real talk, Iām a grown ass man and this manga is so good that it gives me the same feelings of excitement and wonder that I had when I was a child. Nothing else makes me feel that way. One Piece is really something special.

They teamed up to protect the CDs? Why on Earth would they protect them? Something to do with the island?
But yeah, whats so special about Wanoā¦
Thatās what I love about it the most. Dudes dont need to be blowing up planets with a punch, or any ridiculous shit like that. Toning shit down allows for more creativity and variety among the cast in fights. They also dont need to go traveling through space or anything. They can have all kinds of adventures just exploring this great planet of ours.
It reminds me of Dragonball in that sense.

KAAAAAMIIIII!!! Iām geeking out soooooooooo much!!! This will be a stream~of~consciousness post since Iām still processing everything!
So GODA after 22 long years of speculation finally gave us reveal after reveal! Bounties, lost history and unexpected alliances oh my! Rocks D. Xebec what?! The fact that he had such heavy hitters in his crew is clear that The Will of D was in full effect.
The Garp x Roger team up has to be made into a 4k full feature canon movie! AHHHHHHH!!! But the motive on God Island, this is oh so intriguing. I donāt think Roger and Garp were protecting Celestial Dragons outright, but maybe a certain Celestial Dragon or family or even the slaves. Iām getting the feeling that Monkey D. Luffyās heritage is probably a bit complicated. Monkey D. Dragonās hatred of the World Government may strain from this very incident. Luffyās motherā¦
Rocks D. Xebec mustāve had a Luffy-level charisma, super haki and a god tier Devil Fruit to have such a bunch of monsters in his crew, especially ornery and selfish types like Kaido and Big Mom. His likely DF is probably currently held by another powerful character today, but Iāll have to think about it more. Thereās a lot to digest right now!
Beehive Island was the Rocks Piratesā base of operations huh? I wonder if Marshall D. Teach was inspired by Rocks decades earlier or maybe even have some ties with him somehow? Chocobeard has been getting very lucky throughout the series so it makes me wonder what āfateā actually is in the series.
Itās cool to finally get solid proof that Gol D. Roger had the highest bounty in pirate history, but it makes me even more intrigued about Dragon, who directly opposes the WG and is the most wanted man in the OP world. It also makes me wonder why the WG found Whitebeard such a threat to give him the second highest bounty considering he didnāt seem like a troublesome guy nor sought wanton destruction like Kaido. Maybe like Buggy stated, Whitebeard was āthe closest to One Pieceā, even though he had no interest in acquiring the ātreasure.ā
Iām going to find it hard to sleep tonight, my mindās racing like crazy. This is why I love One Piece!
Oh anyone else spot the Mayor McCheese Marine this chapter?
