yo the holy Knights are something else dude I don't know how else to put it I kind of feel like sometimes people try to downplay them but I don't think we can really do that right now especially not after chapter 1,142 and honestly ever since their introduction they have seemed to be shrouded in a lot of mystery that made it kind of difficult to pinpoint just how powerful they actually were until now because we now actually have a couple of situations that really showcase their true power but we also get some pretty cool pieces of
conversation that seem to hint at the true nature of their power and spoiler alert it's demonic it's nightmarish and it's probably tied to a specific you know who at the top of the one piece world all right but can we first take a moment to really talk about how insane these people are because from so far away they're hypnotizing flocks of children like the Pete Piper summoning truly massive nightmares creatures and are able to guide them with Incredible accuracy as well and if we compare them even roughly to Loki's power who you know just summoned
a lightning strike the size of the giant sword on elb with his ragne they may be on a completely different level than anyone else that we've ever seen the straw hats fight before with maybe the exception of the yonko like I'm kind of starting to see why Dragon said that the true battle would begin when they started moving because boy the holy Knights are making some real waves now that they're fully in action so let's take a moment to really discuss what they each seem to be capable of and find the through line that ties
them all together shall we and yeah before you say anything here there is definitely a chance that they are just an evil group with their own unique powers and they don't tie together in some crazy special way but come on we're I feel like we're getting a lot of hints here that there is one unifying concept that puts all of them in one bucket now I kind of feel like it's fair to start here with Shanks 2 I mean shimrock because he is the leader of the Holy Knights and arguably should be the most powerful
them question mark So what is he working with well it's pretty cool it's a cber sort thing for now all we've seen him do with it is wipe out his swords and unleash the dogs on Loki but I do think we may have kind of downplay just how strong that sword actually is that thing transforms straight up into a gigantic Three-Headed Beast that can detach each head and can cut down Shamrock's enemies with the giant blades that burst out from their throats this is like kind of a pretty painful and disgusting thing to imagine it's
kind of like a reverse sword soloa but I think the reason we all kind of downplayed it maybe a little bit is really put on full display in chapter 1,142 because that's the first time that we see Loki scale up against a character like hogen and he is huge like my man is a pretty big boy and the serers that shemrock summons you know looking at it in chapter 1,138 it scales pretty well you know to Loki that means that this dog is also a pretty big boy there's also the fact that shemrock literally says
this is just my sword's power you know implying that he himself is actually a way bigger and way more powerful threat anyways and so for this to be just a taste of Shamrock's power really kind of has me wondering just how far his ceiling is going to go because if this is you know the appetizer the main course might just straight up rival Shanks himself which I would be disappointed if it didn't then we have gko who has the arrow fruit and summons Darkness arrows that remind me a lot of the arrow that you know
emu used to kill king cobra and attack Salo we'll be getting you know back to that point in just a moment as you can imagine as it ties into the rest of I want to talk about today but just keep that in the back of your mind you know suspicious that we've seen it before editor can can you can you write that down somewhere please please come on man oh oh there there thank you thank you I appreciate that all right Google can also transform these arrows into a bird massive stilts and can use them
as wraps or chains to bind her enemies and Pierce them which is pretty crazy variety if we think about it then up next we have killing him and Summers and the reason I want to talk about them together is because we're just not quite certain yet if we've seen summers's Powers yet or if all of this is just killing him here because it seems pretty clear that killing him is the one to put all the children to sleep from a very very far distance and then he seems to take a nap himself and based on
what he says it kind of seems like this nap is setting a time limit for them to follow goo's arrows and so the reason that I lumped summers in here is because I just can't fully tell just yet if it was him or killing him that then also summoned these colossal nightmare beasts that we see I mean come on look at them they are bigger than sea Kings I would argue Loki evil NAA jorong Gunder the dger and even a massive Nitto creature that looks like the mural Dragon I think and of course then the
most terrifying thing of all my mother okay it's it's revealed that these creatures here seem to be either drawings turned to life or the nightmares of the sleeping kids brought to reality now since the dialogue literally says their nightmare realm I kind of think it's less about the drawings and more about them being in nap time and seeing as killing him was the one who put them all to sleep I think it's fair to say that he could have done that part as well but I do want to lean more a little bit wordss towards
Summers here only because he ask goko what she fears right about we see all these Titans based on the children fears which seems like meant to connect these two things and so I do feel like I'm in the right here to at least speculate that he is the one responsible for summoning and creating these big scary monsters but then again it could of course just be him asking about it because the children's fears have now come to life as well which means that the only thing I cannot fully explain is that he also has a
connection with love it seems saying that love is about hurting one another and man teenage me resonates hard with that one who heard you Summers who hurt you well I definitely know who didn't hurt you and it's the Ohara patrons because they're just the the best Bunch around and they use their true power of love their love of exclusive videos Early Access to content and amazing art assets to help my channel out and you know just are completely immune to any demonic Powers seriously though I really can't stress enough how much of a difference it
makes to the quality of our content here I mean we can make stronger and more polished edits crazier and more fun theories and even better art assets which are a direct result of all the patreon contributions and of you know you guys in general it really means the world to me and you really help me make my dream of unraveling one piece come true every single week and so if you're also a person who's all in on this journey with me of one piece why not come out and see if we can figure out Oda
Secrets together go check it out all right with that being said we've now covered each piece of the pie and now I want to see what truly connects them like what is the Tie and threat between the cber sword the arrows the deep sleep and the giant creature nightmare monsters here and you know at first at first glance here not a lot I'd say they all seem very different with the exception of maybe the ties between the nightmare creatures and the sleep comboing pretty well and if that were to be killing him and sumer's Powers
combined it would just explain why the two of them appeared at once but then who knows maybe it's just all killing him and he's just totally cracked and broken all by himself and that would be pretty cool too I'd be okay with that now when I looked at all of these Powers I kind of thought I noticed a slight Trend here they are all generally tied to the underworld in some way shape or form the Cerberus is the guardian of the underworld hell is often called a never-ending nightmare with nightmarish creatures and a lot of
religious texts and as a result that already ties three of our powers together here but that leaves us with the arrow as a big outlier so doesn't seem like it could be that one so I also thought it could just be nightmares in general which you know would make some sense Cerberus is a very scary dog and we just saw massive nightmare creatures appear but again that's still doesn't fully explain the arrows and so it kind of left me at this weird Crossroad and the thorn in my side was this stupid person here stupid goko
why do you all have to screw up my theorizing plans what's What's your deal let's just say this person does not fit in at all she's not a Celestial Dragon her powers don't add up and it it kind of really pisses me off like why can't you just fall in line nicely with everyone else here and then it actually hit me why doesn't gko line up with the rest of the squat and why does it seemed like Summers doesn't really know her that well as well that that was a lot of as well anyways like
I don't know about you but I kind of feel like being part of a team lets you learn a lot about people I mean take the straw heads for example at this point they all pretty much know what makes every other Straw Hat tick I mean we see Robin and Sanji and Robin and Brooke put this on perfect display in wano when Robin squares off with black Maria saving Sanji because she knows that he can save himself there because he's fighting a woman in other words she knew exactly what the problem was in compensated for
it so I kind of find it hard to believe that Summers who seems to be one of the Elder and most you know like senior holy Knights here wouldn't know goo's biggest fear especially if fear is one of his main powers and so it kind of got me thinking and I wondered that just maybe is gunko supposed to be the outlier here and when I consider that like all sorts of possibilities open up to me like my mind's eye was revealed I had unraveled the entire story okay not really but I do think that I
found out how the holy Knights actually work and it all starts with the final line of chapter 1,142 what do you fear gko daddy SAS asks here yearning to know more about his comrades and NAA is what GCO replies terrified of the Sun God why on Earth is she scared of NAA like what does she even know about NAA and more importantly what is causing her to fear the sun god specifically a character that's about dreams and laughter and saving people well remember what I had you and the editor note down earlier editor please if
if you would thank you goo's arrows are shockingly similar to the arrows used to defeat Cobra and almost gabo as well I don't know maybe that's a stretch but I kind of have to Humble Sabo a little bit because I personally always feel like everyone thinks he's way stronger than I kind of feel he is but anyhow what's important is that it's a near one-o-one match with junko's powers which only points to one of two options for me either gunko was in the room with the Goro and emu during the events of chapter 1085 or
this Arrow power that gko uses is somehow directly tied to EMU and either way my point I think still holds up because this now really starts to form a new connecting threat between the Holy Knight Powers because it may just not be the underworld it may not be nightmares it may just straight up be emu I know I know I said it dramatically but nothing super crazy I mean we've talked about it before but now it kind of feels like Oda is pulling us to this very conclusion very much directly by the hair and why
do I believe that well why would goko fear NAA well if goko were to be Tethered to EMU through these arrows gko May guard emu directly or have been even raced by them or maybe they're just a descendant of emu as that might explain the weird thing with goo's eyes it doesn't really matter honestly it just helps explain why gko could be fearing NAA because well emu fears na at the very least emu hates Joy boy after all who is a Reincarnation of NAA and if were're to believe that emu was involved in the first
world many thousands of years ago emu probably fearce and is angry at NAA directly as well and goo's attachments to EMU are actually leading me to believe that her powers were either granted by or are fragments of emu's powers as well and seeing as far as we currently know goo's Powers come from a devil fruit and I do want to lean towards it being granted by emu themselves unless goko is emu in Disguise and that's why they have all the band no no okay like that's that's maybe that's maybe taking it a bit too far
but the powers coming from emu that just might be the case for all of the Hol kns because let's face it nothing that they're doing seems that different from the Goro say and we definitely know that those guys are somehow directly Tethered to EMU based on Saturn's remote detonation and mind message after egit plus seeing as the dark fire that emu seems to use to burn Saturn is the same type of fire that appears when the abyss marks summon you know someone with the summoning Circle it kind of seems all but evident that the abyss
is also some sort of extension of emu's powers being granted to the holy Knights and the Goro to use for themselves as well like this Abyssal power is something I recently just talked about in my demon power video and it's growing increasingly likely I think that it has a much deeper and darker connection to EMU than we all thought but what if it's just straight up another extension of the dark ga-like figures Powers I mean just a means for them to move their puzzle pieces around the the one piece world around the the game board
if you want and this seems to be a sort of theme for emu as they almost seem to treat the world like a board game map at least based on the way they marked all the Lucia Kingdom from the little map here almost like a game marker or there's also the totally reasonable idea I think that emu themselves draws power from the abyss you know like a sort of eldrich Terror or you know I mean I guess they do have the cthulu type spooky Vibe going on as well and I think that the true origin
of that power is something that's less relevant and important right now because we just don't have enough information about it yet so the much more important part to me is that when you consider all of their individual skills plus their unified use of the abil ABS something that we directly see emu used to kill Saturn it kind of starts to paint a picture of all these Powers collectively being tied to aspects of emu so that's what I want to work with here I believe that all of their powers the holy Knights and the gay are
actually fragments of emu's true power either granted to them or designed to mirror the true powers of the ruler of the world and looking back at it this would make a lot of sense when you really look at all of the different ideas about emu and their powers as well I mean we've been speculating about demon powers the nightmarish opposite of Na's dream Powers dark devilish arrows that pierce through people all of these are reflected in the goo and the holy Knights cus is a demonic power goko has the arrows and Summers and killingham have
the sleep and Nightmare thing all things that various theorists including myself have actively talked about in the past about being possible options for the true source of Emo's Powers at different points throughout the last years as well I just think that maybe now we could actually have been wrong by trying to narrow it down to one specific thing and it could have just straight up in all of the above especially when you also consider that all of them seem to have access to the abyss through a special mark on their body okay we've now covered
the big chunk of it but now the major question remains and that is why why does it all matter like what is the significance if the holy night's powers are actually based on like of pieces of emu's full power how would that even impact the series and I mean totally fair question dude I do Lucy why do you want to know that and truthfully part of me wants to say it's just a pretty sick reveal that could help us understand the full scope of em was immens power at some point I mean we've seen them
destroy islands with the wave of a hand by using what seems to be Uranus and now we've seen them destroy an immortal old man with a passing thought but you know the point seems to be that after seeing all the crazy stuff that the holy Knights are already doing on elb the idea that their power is just like an ounce of emus creates a truly nightmare picture to me of what the straw heads might need to overcome at the end of the story I mean hell itself could be Unleashed when emu finally hits the grand
stage and already seeing what could be a part of these Powers is really cool to me you know kind of getting a foreshadowing for that but I do actually think that it may be even more than that I think that if this turns out to be true if the holy Knights tap into emu's Powers then maybe just maybe we're also seeing the true potential of the NAA fruit because n and emu seem to be foiled they're opposites whether one of them is the earth God and the other is the sun god like I usually theorize
or if they're just true gods of Good and Evil both of them inherently are somewhat close in power levels I would speculate and to think that this is what emu might be capable of doing just gets me absolutely amped up to see what Luffy could possibly pull off in the future as well like maybe he's also going to learn how to give his crew pieces of his power at some point snakeman Zoro unleashing a full power ashra Deadman's game or something like that or sanji's Lex unleashing an ephra jambed giant ax kick bro it would
be absolutely legendary if Luffy started sharing stuff with the crew and totally put the squad on par with the Holy Knights going into the final Saga by the way but first they will have a truly epic and legendary Warrior to deal with one with the power to level an entire giant Island in a few swings of a hammer because we're talking about our big man Loki here The Goat Who can summon Island sized lightning strike fairly casually being heavily wounded so what is this guy's upper limit where does he draw his real power from and
what is he going to do is he a good guy or a bad guy well I just went over all of that in this video that you should check out because dude there's a lot to talk about and otherwise shank so much for watching Shanks again to all the patreons go check it out if you're interested and I will see you in the next one
