The Entire Story of One Piece in 2 Hours

Hello and welcome to the ground Line review your source for everything one piece today we are going to embark on a nice new short series titled sagas in minutes I decided to make the series because I get an awful lot of comments on this channel from people wanting to get into one piece but who simply cannot afford to spend the time reading over 900 chapters or watching almost that many episodes and if you're watching This video in the near future both of those numbers may be well over a thousand so yes it's an intimidating Prospect

therefore the aim of this series is going to be to condense the mammoth story of the past two decades into a handful of short digestible videos that will be giving you all of the Essential Knowledge to jump into the wonderful world of one piece and in order to do that we will not simply be examining arcs but entire sagas at a Time I should warn everyone in advance that these videos are not a substitute for reading or watching the series they simply aim to give you the tools needed to delve into the series at your

leisure without feeling so overwhelmed and with that in mind we're going to begin with the truly classical era of One Piece as we take a journey through the East blue Saga East blue is the first Saga of the series comprising six individual arcs told over a total of exactly 100 manga Chapters and 54 anime episodes and we begin with the premise for the entire series as we see the execution of pirate king gold D Roger his final words to the world are a challenge stating that he has left all of his treasure in one place

but in order to find it you'll have to search the entire world this treasure becomes known as the one piece and following Roger's execution civilization is set Ablaze with ambition to find it commencing the great age of Piracy 12 years later we meet our young protagonist Monkey D Luffy who lives in fuch fuch Village in East blue his desire in life is to become a pirate and join the crew of redhead Shanks a captain who has made fuchsia Village his temporary base during this time liy accidentally consumes a devil fruit known as the gomi which

turns him into a rubber man however he does unfortunately lose the ability to swim as a result which is the curse of consuming devil Fruits Luffy proceeds to cause trouble with some Bandits and is saved by Shanks who loses his left arm protecting Luffy from a sea king as Shanks and his crew prepared to depart The Village Luffy exclaims that he will become a pirate on his own but not only that he also claims that he will surpass Shanks and become the next pirate king touched by Luffy's word Shanks then gives Luffy his straw hat

and makes him promise to return it once he becomes a great pirate and 10 Years later Luffy is ready to set out on his voyage punching the Sea King that stole shank's arm and beginning a legendary journey as part of his quest Luffy decides that he will need a crew and sets out to find strong individuals saving a chore Boy by the name of Kobe from a rather large pirate named alvita who in turn guides him to shelltown to meet the Bounty Hunter roran NOA Zoro who was currently imprisoned on a wood thing as it

turns out Zoro was a Swordsman whose dream is to become the world's greatest swordsman an ambition that he will achieve at almost any cost in honor of his friend and rival Kina who tragically passed away before she could embark on the quest herself in a very sneaky move leafy retrieves zoro's swords but tells him that he can only have them back if he joins his crew and Zoro being a fairly simple man eventually acquiesces and the pair go on to defeat Captain Morgan a corrupt Marine officer in charge of shown basically he's a dick as

well as his son H Meo who very much takes after his father in the whole dick department and so the two of them proceed to leave shells Town although Kobe decides to to stay behind and join the Marines putting into action his own dream of becoming an officer within the organization take note of this little boy you will see him again from here Luffy and Zoro end up in Orangetown where they encounter a thief Named Nami and a pirate called buggy the clown another devil fruit user who ate the barab Baroni which allows him to

separate and control parts of his body as it happens buggy was also a member of the Roger Pirates along with Luffy's role model Shanks although they both held very minor positions in the crew and so Luffy Zora and Nami team up to save Orangetown with Zora defeating a unicyclist and Luffy blasting various parts of buggy in into the distance After these events Nami decides to make a temporary alliance with Luffy and Zoro leading the three of them to sail to syrup village where they meet a boy named Usopp and uncover a plot by the devious

Kuro captain of the black cat Pirates Who was planning to sack the village and steal the fortunes of a girl named Kaa Uso tries to warn the villagers about the impending attack however he is a renowned liar I mean just look at the size of that nose and So it is put onto our small band of protagonists to stop the black cat Pirates an effort that is rather successful leaving Kuro and his crew utterly defeated as a reward for their actions a straw hats are gifted a Caravel called the going Mary which were going to

become their Flagship vessel for the foreseeable future furthermore Usopp was invited to join the crew with his dream being to become a brave Warrior of the sea just like his father Yaso who was actually a member of the redhead Pirates and Luffy met him when he was younger now all of this work has made our protagonist hungry so went off to the floating restaurant of bartier to meet a chef named Sanji a man whose dream is to find the legendary all blue a patch of water in which all of the world's various Fish can be

found now the restaurant is actually run by an ex-pirate named Zev who saved Sanji from a shipwreck as a child and the two ended Up marooned on a rocky outc in an act of pure nobility Zep gave Sanji all of the food that washed up with them and in order to survive he severed his leg with a rock and ate it and yes this is the way it happened if you think Zep lost his leg by Saving Sanji in the ocean then you really need to go ahead and read the Manga but the two were

eventually rescued and so Zep started the restaurant and as a result of nearly starving to death Sanji decided that he Would always feed a hungry person whether they be friend or fo cut to the pirate Gan arriving on the restaurant and very aggressively demanding food so as a result Sanji fed him and Gan went off to bring his captain Don Creek to the restaurant who further demanded the same thing for his entire Armada to which the owner F met their request and then warned to the chefs of baratier to prepare for battle with the cre

Pirates however before the festivities begin the Restaurant is approached by Dr mihawk one of the seven Warlords of the Sea and the man responsible for destroying C's armar in the ground line he also happens to be the world's greatest swordsman and so seeing an opportunity to make his dream come true Zoro immediately challenges him and this fight is quite possibly one of the most one-sided conflicts in all of media mihawk obliterates zor with ease however is highly impressed by the young Swordsman's pride and resolve electing to leave him alive and setting Zoro a challenge to

surpass him and Zoro responds by exclaiming to Luffy that he will never lose again in the meantime Nami being a thief and all betrayed the straw hats and stole the going Mary as well as all of the treasure aboard this prompted usap andoru to pursue her whilst Luffy stayed on baratier to help defend the restaurant against Creek and one relatively hardfought battle later Luffy emerged Victorious and not only that but he also acquired a new crew member in Sanji who after much prompting agreed to become Lu chef and so the straw hats would all converge

again on Kashi Village nami's Hometown a territory currently under the rule of a fisherman named arlong who was responsible for killing nami's adoptive mother belare and forced Nami herself into a life of piracy agreeing to release Kashi Village for the sum of 100 Million berries and amount that Nami was astonishingly close to attaining however she was betrayed by arong and more desperate than ever before she pleaded for Luffy to help her and of course Luffy instantly agreed and along with Zoros Sanji and Usopp he went to allong park to put an end to the fisherman's

tyranny and the ensuing battle very much acts as the climax of East blue with Zora reaffirming his dream to become the world's greatest swordsman Sanji having His first fight as a member of the straw hats and Usopp overcoming his crippling cowardice and managing to defeat his first one-on-one opponent in the series meanwhile Luffy destroys arong Park symbolically releasing Nami from her shackles as well as somewhat literally doing it by defeating arong himself Nami then officially joins the crew as the Navigator and our team is set to Embark into the grand line but not before a

short stop at logtown the location in Which the previous pirate king Roger was born as well as the location that he was executed and this portion of the story acts as an epilogue to East blue bringing back former villains like buggy the clown and Alva as well as seeing Shanks again for the first time since the initial chapter of the series furthermore as a result of Luffy's actions to this point he is officially recognized as a danger by the Marines and a bounty of 30 million berries is Placed on his head which is incredibly high

for an East blue pirate L toown also acts as a prologue to the future of the series introducing us to one of the more fearsome Marines of the world smoker who makes it his mission to pursue Luffy into the grand line however we also receive another taste of top tier power with an appearance from the most wanted man in the world Dragon who for mysterious reasons appears to save Luffy from execution and with that the Straw hats officially embark on their journey into the grand line properly commencing a spectacular adventure to achieve all of their

dreams and bringing an end to the east blue Saga hello and welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything one piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we're going to be delving into Some more classic one piece and start our exploration of the grand line with the alabaster Saga the alabaster Saga is the second in the series consisting of five individual arcs told over a mighty 117 chapters and a giggity 69 anime episodes

and we begin with the straw hats embarking on their Adventure into the grand line however to enter this stretch of water one must travel over the exceptionally dangerous reverse Mountain although through a good Old bout of teamwork they manag to cross the mountain enter the gr line and the very first thing they see is a a giant whale the whale's name is the Boon and Luffy ends up curing him of his depression somewhat as well as Graffiti's a poorly drawn Straw Hat upon him the crew also discover an old doctor named crocus who informs them

of exactly how to travel the grand line as well as states that the final island is rap an island in which only the crew of the Former pirate king has ever reached and it is assumed that this is where the one piece is hidden during this time there's also some Tom Foolery with some mysterious antagonist known as Mr N9 and Miss Wednesday who were trying to kill the Boon so that they could feed his juicy whal meat to their Hometown things do not go well for them but eventually the two beg the straw hats to

take them to an island named whiskey Peak to which Luffy surprisingly agrees and as the Group leave Ros Mountain we Linger on Crocus for a bit who reveals that he once knew the former pirate king and Ponders over whether the straw hats are the pirate crew that they've been waiting for upon arrival in whiskey Peak the crew greeted as Heroes and even treated to a Suare of sorts however this was but a clever ruse and it is revealed that the entire Island was populated by agents of an underground organization named Baro Works who were planning

to Capture Luffy and turn him into the world government to claim his 30 million barri Bounty unfortunately for them and very impressively despite having won drinking contest against 13 individual people that night Zoro manages to stay alert and proceeds to take out the entire town of roughly 100 bounty hunters nobody is capable of stopping him whatsoever not even the higher ranking Baro work agents however eventually Luffy wakes up and Misunderstanding the situation begins a fight with Zoro in the meantime two officer agents arrive on the island known as Mr five and Miss Valentine who are

in search of a spy within their organization although they find themselves in the way of the fight between Luffy and Zoro and end up being beaten exceedingly quickly after witnessing such strength the choice is made to reveal the true identity of Miss Wednesday who is actually princess Vivy Of the alabaster Kingdom huh what do you know and it is then explained that the leader of Baro work sir crocodile who is also one of the seven Warlords of the sea has been working to plunge Alabaster into Civil War for his own nefarious purposes and Vivy infiltrated

his organization to find a way to fight him the straw hats agreed to help Vivie save her Nation however just prior to their departure from the islands they encounter miss all Sunday the vice President of Baro Works who attempts to help the crew but Luffy refuses and so we set sail with the next stop of the log POS being an island known as little garden a piece of land populated by dinosaurs two Giants and wouldn't you know it several more broox agents in regards to the Giants though their names are Dory and brogy and they

have been locked in a never- ending duel for the past Century long enough that they have both forgotten what they're fighting Over but hey that is not going to stop two citizens of Elba doing their thing the two of them are also former Infamous pirate captains with the 100 million Berry bounty on their heads each and so the officer agent Mr 3 comes up with a cunning plan to interrupt the fight and collect the bount unlike prior agents Mr 3 and his partner Miss golden week present a proper challenge to the straw hats with Mr

3 managing to imprison Zoro Nami and Vivy on a wax wedding cake Candleabra thing crafted from his devil fruit abilities while miss golden wig subdued Luffy purely through the power of painting and so it is left to Uso and Viv pet. Karo to save the day as they managed to free everyone and together take down the officer agents as thanks for their actions Dory and brogy helped the straw hats toart the island by sending through a giant fishy known as the island eater and it is revealed to us that the reason why they began Fighting

in the first place was because one day Dory and broggy could not decide whose fish was bigger and so they entered a contest of honor to settle the feud a contest that to this day has still not come to a conclusion but with that out of the way it's now onto Alabaster right wrong while Stone little Garden army caught a deadly fever and so the straw hats have to put their mission on hold to find a doctor which leads them to drum Island a bit of a wintry Wasteland that had recently been sacked by a

pirate known as Blackbeard causing its former King wo to flee in fear now wall is a bit of a dick and so he happened to take all of the Island's best doctors with him while all except for one that is a person referred to as a witch by the town's folk Dr Kura unfortunately Kura took up residence in drum Castle after wo fled and so it is put upon Luffy to carry both Nami and an injured sji all the way up the highest Mountain of the island barehanded by the way to which Luffy barely makes

it to the top and the three are taken in for medical treatment by Dr kurar and her assistant a reindeer called Tony Tony Chopper well he's half reindeer anyway Chopper was originally a reinder however at a certain point in his life he stumbled across the hitoo numi and upon consuming it he gained a human level of sentience as as well as the ability to transform into a human and a half human Half reindeer form following this he was exiled from his herd and labeled a monster by the human residents of the island and only found

solace in one person his mentor Dr hok however various tragedy struck and hok took his own life in front of drum Castle prompting Chopper to beg corar to train him and sparking his dream to become a great doctor and cure all disease shortly after the straw hats arrived the former King wo returned to the island to Reclaim his throne but remember he's a bit of a dick and so he was promptly defeated by Luffy and Chopper and Chopper himself would go on to join the crew in order to travel the world to broaden his medical

knowledge and make his dream come true and now we arrive at the main event as the straw hats finally enter the desert nation of alabaster just prior to their arrival they encounter Bon clay an agent of Baroque works but they don't know that and he Doesn't know that they are prime targets of his organization as such they become friends instantly and he displaces devil fruit power which allows him to change his body into the form of anybody whom he has touched one of the forms bonay demonstrates is viv's Father nefatari Cobra which tips Vivie off

to the fact that he is indeed a bro Works agent and after after the two groups depart the straw hats come up with the idea to draw an x on their left arms to prove that They are all crew mates so as to not be fooled by bonay pretending to be any of them in the future as the straw hats land on Alabaster and make their way across the island they encounter smoker the Marine Captain they met in logtown as well as Luffy's brother pork Gast Ace who saves them from smoker and gives Luffy a

piece of his Vivia card before continuing on his own personal mission to find a pirate by the name of Blackbeard deciding to face crocodile Headon the crew makes for rain base and ends up captured in the basement of a casino named Rain dinners along with smoker who is pursuing them although they do manage to escape thanks to Sanji and his banana wani kicking abilities and as thanks for saving his life smoker decides not to pursue the straw hats who having failed to defeat crocodile now desperately head for the capital city of alabana to stop the

Civil War before it begins although crocodile doesn't simply Let them escape and Luffy makes the decision to stay behind and face him alone in order to allow the others to proceed up against the wall or Luffy is entirely outclassed due to crocodiles devil fruit abilities a ly type fruit that allows him to control and become sand and after being impaled Luffy is left for dead in the desert although luckily he is saved by the enigmatic missile sunde elsewhere Vivy and the straw hats are unsuccessful in Preventing the wall from beginning and the city becomes engulfed

in battle during which the straw hats each face off against a high ranking agent of Baro works with the battles looking a little something like this Nami takes on her first one-on-one opponent whoop teams up with chopper to take down an officer agent Duo Sanji defeats no K and Zoro learns how to cut steel on the fly in order to come out on top against the infamous assassin dust bones meanwhile Princess Vivy makes it all the way to the Palace confronting crocodile and is saved by Luffy just before before he kills her and so Luffy

versus crocodile round two Begins the difference this time is that Luffy knows crocodile's weakness being water and so the fight is not anywhere near as one-sided but crocodile still manages to defeat Luffy a second time shortly after it is revealed the crocodile's goal in Alabaster was to reach a poneglyph which Are indestructible Stones inscribed with an ancient language in this case the poneglyph located on Alabaster was said to detail the location of the ancient weapon pluton missile Sunday who was hired by crocodile because she can read this language refuses to tell crocodile what is truly

written prompting crocodile to attempt to murder her resolving that he will raise the entire Kingdom until he finds the weapon at this point Luffy catches up to him and The two begin their third and final bout by using his own blood as a water source Luffy is able to strike crocodile in a desperate battle and gains the upper hand despite being poisoned by the warlord's hook and finally in a moment of stunning resolve Luffy exclaims that he will become the pirate king and surpass crocodile kicking him into the air and punching him through solid bedrock

with a barage of strikes leaving crocodile defeated and the kingdom of Alabaster saved after exposing crocodile the civil war ends immediately and crocodile himself is arrested by tashigi a subordinate of Captain smoker as a result of their action Zoro is deemed a threat by the world government and is assigned a bounty of 60 million berries while Luffy having defeated one of the seven Warlords has his Bounty increased to a mighty 100 million berries as the straw hats prepared to leave the island they invite Vivy and Karu to become Permanent members of the crew however Vivie

makes the tough decision to sacrifice her dreams of Adventure in favor of doing something that she is even more passionate about which is leading her kingdom and during their goodbyes Vivy asked them one simple question being that if they ever meet again would they still consider her their shipmate to which the straw hats simply raised their left arms in solidarity confirming that Vivi and Karu Will forever be members of the straw hat Pirates and proceed to set sail on their next Grand Adventure hello and welcome to the ground Line review your source for everything one

piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we'll be going on an adventure into the Great unknown of the heavens in order to defeat a God as we Break down the sky island Saga sky island is the third Saga in the series consisting of a mere two arcs told over 85 chapters and 52 episodes it picks up immediately after the events of alabaster which saw the straw hats leave their friend nefatari Vivy behind however in a

bit of a Twist miss all Sunday real Nam Nik Robin appears aboard the straw hat ship having stowed away and makes an outrageous demand to Luffy that she joined the crew Robin's Reasoning for this is that she was saved against her wishes on Alabaster and so her new found life is now Luffy's responsibility and even more surprisingly Luffy immediately accepts his demand as it turns out Robin has a dream as well to find the ROP poneglyph and discover the true history of the world and despite being a former antagonist Robin gradually wins over the straw

hats one by one and settles into the role of crew archaeologist very Handy because at this point a gigantic ship falls from the sky and Robin explains that their log pose has now been captured by the magnetic field of a sky island of course the idea of such a location excites Luffy to no end and so their next adventure is set the only only problem is how to get up there this leads Luffy and the straw hats to land on the island of Gia where they meet a man by the name of Mont Blanc cricet

an ancestor of Mont Blan Noland the famous Figure of North Blue known in the modern day as lion Noland cricet had been living on Gia for years now searching for the City of Gold that his ancestor claimed existed and as it so happens Noland also spoke of Sky Islands so cricet informed them of the only way he knew how to reach one which is by riding the extraordinarily dangerous burst of water known as the knockup stream meanwhile on greater G we have a couple of other factions at play the first of Which is the Bellamy

Pirates led by Bellamy the hyena a man with a bounty of 55 million berries however after beating up cricet and stealing his gold Luffy confronts him directly and defeats the cynical hyena with but a single punch at the same time a mysterious man who enjoys cherry pies makes his presence known on Gia and after learning of Luffy's bounty decides to pursue the straw hats luckily the straw hats managed to escape this man and his crew By riding the knockup stream and embarking on their Adventure into the sky it is then revealed that their pursuers were

the Blackbeard Pirates Who quite notably were the crew who sacked Chopper's home of drum Island as well as being the group sought after by Luffy's brother Ace and should the straw hats had been caught by them it would have almost certainly ended in their complete defeat if not demise elsewhere in the world Luffy's defeat of Sir crocodile on Alabaster has caused some incredibly big waves as a meeting is convened at the holy land of marija in order to decide who will replace crocodile as one of the seven Warlords of the sea this meeting was called

by the goray also known as the five Elder stars who are the ruling faction of the world government however heading up this meeting is the fleet admiral of the Marines s Goku and three other Warlords of the sea are present including the world's greatest swordsman Drael mihawk as well as two new figures in bartholomy Kuma and donot DOL Flamingo both of whom are presented as wildly powerful figures with bounties of 296 million and 34 million respectively the meeting is intruded upon however by an enigmatic figure who is identified as leit a banished Sheriff from West

Blue known for his brutality who has come to suggest a candidate for the warlord position elsewhere in the grand line we are also introduced to the strongest man In the world Edward Nate who captains the Whitebeard Pirates and refuses a letter from a member of the redhair Pirates claiming that if Shanks wants to talk to him then he needs to do so in person and as such Shanks makes the decision to set sail and meet Whitebeard but that is a story for n now catching up with the straw hats and they have safely made it

up to the white white sea and after a brief encounter with the sky Knight named Gall they find their way to Angel Island meeting the lovely father daughter Dua of pagaya and konus who demonstrate and explain some Sky technology to them using one of their funky devices known as a waiver Nami sets out alone to explore the Sky Realm finding the island of aard and witnessing the power of the chief antagonist of The Saga God enel enel is a citizen of another sky island who had eaten a devil fruit known as the Goro Goron Nomi

a loia type fruit that allows Him to conj manipulate and become electricity furthermore he also possesses an ability known as Mantra which allows him to sense the presence of other beings giving him overwhelming power and omniscience which for all intents and purposes does allow him to label himself as a God the straw hats are eventually split up with Luffy Sanji and Uso facing off against and defeating one of enel's priests satui who were he he really likes balls meanwhile the Other straw hats come to the startling conclusion that upper yard was actually a part of

Gia Island which was shot up into the air via the knockup stream and may be where lion Nolan's legendary City of Gold resides and so after reuniting the crew hatch a plan to find it but end up embroiled in a death game concocted by enl along with the native people of upper yard the shandians led by wiper who are fighting enel's forces to reclaim their Homeland during this game Two more of enel's priests are beaten one by the hands of Tony Tony Chopper and the other by the swords of Zoro furthermore the leader of nl's

militia is convincingly beaten by our newest draw hat nro Robin as the game comes to its climax only six individuals remain conscious the former god of skypia ganf the leader of the chandan tribe wiper roron orzoro nikar Robin Nami and enl himself oh and it should also be stated that Luffy was still up and running However he wasn't included in this number as he was stuck inside a giant snake at the time despite being outnumbered and El swiftly disposed of everyone else with his devil fruit abilities sa for Nami who he invited to come with

him although eventually Luffy catches up with them and confronts enel on the ark Maxim a device intended to facilitate the destruction of the entirety of skypia however due to the whole being rubber thing enel's Lightning strikes have no effect on Luffy whatsoever which causes enel to make this face despite that NL manages to trap Luffy's arm in a bowl of gold and send him flying off the ark however this is far from the end and Luffy struggles to make his way back to enl climbing up giant Jack with a golden hand and everything but right

before the final showdown it is time for a flashback focusing on a figure that we've heard a lot about at this point Mont Blanc Noland 400 years ago Noland was an explorer who made frequent trips into the grand line and one day he and his crew were caught in a storm but they were saved by the sound of a bell following which led them to the island of G he and Nolan met and eventually befriended the chandan tribe becoming particularly close with the warrior calgara who showed Nolan the city of gold now of course complications

ensued but they were resolved and Nolan left The island promising to return and after Nolan returned to his kingdom in North Blue he regaled the king with Tales of his expedition and was subsequently ordered to take him to the City of Gold however after arriving in Tri Nolan discovered that the Golden City as well as the entire shandan tribe had disappeared the king thinking that Nolan was some sort of ancient troll then had Nolan arrested and executed and was successful in Forever branding him as Lion Noland however the truth of the matter has stated before

is that part of J was launched into the sky and once settled into the clouds the shandan tribe was immediately attacked by the armies of skypia and calgara was slain in battle with neither he nor Noland ever knowing the fate of one another but back in modern day enel Unleashed his ultimate technique that instantly destroyed Angel Island and threatens to consume the entirety of skypier itself Luffy assisted by Nami then makes his way up to the ark for one final shot at taking NL down breaking his ultimate technique and then firing a fearsome punch directly

at enl which sends him flying into the gold Bell of chandora causing it to ring for the first time in 400 years and defeating NL and back on G Nolan's descendant Cricket hears this ringing as well as sees the gigantic shadow cast by Luffy and breaks down crying as his ancestor's words were Finally confirmed to be true in the aftermath of the battle Gall reassumes his position as the god of skypia and begins working with the chandan tribe to make skypia a place in which they can all live in peace prior to leaving the island

Robin discovers a poneglyph which reveals the location of another of the ancient weapons this time being Poseidon however much to her surprise another message is inscribed in the ancient language from none other than the former Pirate king gold D Roger and after reading this Robin comes to the conclusion that the true history of the world will be found on rap tell the location in which Luffy must reach to become the next pirate king the crew then depart skypia with a whole ton of gold Acquired and take an octopus balloon back down to the blue sea

in order to embark on their next adventure hello and welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything One piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we'll be going on a dark journey of internal and external Strife with the gut punching Saga that is water 7 water 7 is the fourth Saga of the series consisting of four arcs which are told over a whopping 139 chapters and 110 anime episodes so it's a sizable piece

of story and we commence with Following the straw hats Landing back onto the blue sea as they quickly find themselves on the island of long ring longland here they made a bunch of bizarre creatures including ton jit as well as a pirate named foxy who challenges the straw hats to a Davey back fight which is essentially a pirate contest that allows the winners of certain events to poach crew members or even take the opposing crew's flag and so a nice comical contest starts up Consisting of three events culminating in Luffy Dawning an afro and defeating

Captain foxy in one of the most hilarious battles of One Piece history and I very much hope you enjoyed this brief moment of Comedy because this is where things are going to start getting uh pretty real first up the crew encounter Marine Admiral aliji a man of unfathomable power at this point in the story who manages to easily dismiss Luffy Zora and Sanji as well as warn the Crew that Robin is a threat to the world due to her ability to read the ancient language as well as a threat to them as every organization that

she has ever been a part of has ceased to exist with her going on to be the only Survivor however for Mr aliji this is a private visit and he allows the straw hats to leave long ring long land because of Luffy's helpful actions in bringing down the corrupt warlord sir crocodile on Alabaster however being completely Outclassed by a marine Admiral is but one problem as the crew also discovered that their ship the going Mary is in desperate need of repair and so they travel to the ship building island of water 7 to find a

ship right to help having landed in anime Venice the crew splits up into four different groups W zor staying with the ship while Luffy Nami and Usopp took the gold attained from skypia in order to exchange it for 300 million berries meanwhile Sanji goes Off and does his own thing as does Chopper and Robin however Robin soon encounters a mysterious figure in a mask claiming to be a member of cp9 a term that Robin is apparently familiar with and thus he abducts her Luffy and army find their way to dock one of the galila company

to contract a ship to take a look at the going Mary however after an inspection it is deemed that the ship is unfixable due to having a broken Keel in the meantime Usopp is attacked by thugs Belonging to a group known as the Frankie family who stole most of the money the straw hats traded for their gold after discovering a beaten Uso Luffy Zoro Sanji and choer in an act of Glorious Revenge Reign all held down upon the Frankie family base completely destroying it as well as defeating the entire family save for their leader Frankie

who had already taken the money and gone elsewhere at this point Luffy makes the tough decision to part with The going Mary and to buy a new ship the ca of action that does not sit right with Usopp who claims that Mary is as much their crew mate as anyone else and starts an altercation with Luffy that culminates in Usopp leaving the crew and challenging Luffy to fight for the riots for the going Mary during this fight Usopp displays a stunning Evolution able to hold his own against Luffy using the various Technologies and tricks that

he has acquired throughout his journey However ultimately Luffy still wins the battle but tearfully leaves the going marry to usop as Luffy and the rest of the crew move onward the next morning the crew receives news that Iceberg the mayor of water 7 was shot by Robin and just to make things even worse it is announced that Aqua Laguna a tidle wave that engulfes the lower part of water 7 will be hitting the city that very night as Luffy and the straw hats work to figure out what is happening with Robin It becomes apparent that

several members of galila are in fact agents of cp9 a world government organization that specializes in Espionage and assassination their mission on water 7 was to acquire the blueprints for the ancient weapon pluton which were thought to be held by Iceberg as well as capture Nika Robin and present her for execution on the judicial island of any slobby the group succeeded in the latter blackmailing Rob by threatening to kill The other Straw Hat Pirates and securing her cooperation in their plans however they failed to acquire the blueprints to pluton which were actually being held by

Frankie and as it happens both Frankie and Iceberg were apprentices of a fisherman ship right named Tom who is best known for having built the AA Jackson a ship used by the former pirate king gold D Roger knowing this cp9 also moves to capture Frankie and take him along with Robin aboard the sea train Bound for any slobby shortly before the train departed both Sanji and Usopp independently boarded it managing to free Frankie and attempt to rescue Robin however Usopp having left the crew took upon himself to craft an alternate identity becoming the superhero SOA

King because he was too ashamed to face the crew ultimately their efforts would be unsuccessful though as Frankie was recaptured while Sanji and so King were forced to regroup on another train with The rest of the crew this train consisted of the remaining straw hats the Frankie family and galila who had formed an alliance to pursue Robin Frankie and deliver vengeance upon the agents who infiltrated galila and thus the small army went on to invade the island of Ben slobby Luffy being impatient and such went marching on ahead and found his way to the Tower

of just rather quickly where he was pit against bluno and in order to swiftly Defeat him Luffy revealed gear second a technique that he had developed after encountering aliji to ensure that he would be able to protect his crew mates after taking down the cow look Alik Luffy yelled for Robin at the top of his lungs prompting the rest of cp9 to step out and they would eventually be greeted with the six members of the straw hats who had come to declare war on the world government but more importantly reclaim Robin after breaking into the

Tower of Justice the straw hats each faced off against various members of cp9 with many of them displaying powerups of sorts such as nam's new and improved clim attack techniques sanji's diaab Jamba and zor's Ashura during these fights the idiotic leader of cp9 spandam also accidentally summoned a teeny tiny Buster call on the island which is a fleet of 10 Marine battleships helmed by five Vice Admirals who are charged with destroying an entire island with no Questions asked this was also an event that Robin had witnessed once before as she grew up on the island

of Ohara which was populated by Scholars seeking the true history of the world upon discovering this the world government had the island eradicated using USTA call however Robin survived due to the sympathy pathetic actions of vice admiral Kuan who would go on to become Admiral aliji however due to Robin's knowledge a bounty of 79 million berries Was placed on her head at the age of 8 years old and so she began her life consistently On The Run being betrayed by everyone she came into contact with until she met crocodile and joined Baroque works and you

know what even then she was eventually betrayed by him so yeah which was why it was all the more impactful when Robin found the straw hats and became part of their crew because For the first time in her life she had found a place where she belonged With people that she felt she could trust and so Robin eventually overcame her fear of the world government as well as her resignation to death and exclaimed to Luffy that she wanted to live prompting the current events inside the Tower of Justice with almost every member of cp9 defeated

Robin was then freed by Frankie and the straw hats began to face the full force of the Buster call while Luffy was still locked in combat with the final cp9 member Rob Luchi after giving everything he had to give Luffy eventually overcame Luchi however the straw hats were still faced with an impossible situation surrounded entirely by Marine forces and at that very moment they all Heard a Voice prompting them to jump into the ocean to which they did and landed on the going Mary which had come all the way to any slobby in order to

rescue them after begging iceburg to patch it up because by the way in this world some ships do Have a sense of sentience and the going Mary happened to be one of them after saving the crew Mary began to completely break down and it was decided that it was time to lay her to rest the straw hat stayed with Mary as she burned and the ship gave a touching goodbye to the crew grateful for the time she got to spend with them and with that an invaluable member of the straw hat Pirates was lost but

her Legacy would live on Within a new ship built by Frankie known as the Thousand Sunny as it turns out Frankie's dream was to build a ship capable of sailing the entire world and he had spent the money he stole from the straw hats on wood from the treasure tree Adam Frankie then gifted the ship to the straw hats and was even recruited to become their official shipw right a position that the Frankie family begged them to give him because as a result of his actions on any Lobby Frankie had been assigned a Bounty of

44 million berries in fact as it would turn out all of the straw hats would given bounties with Luffy's in particular being raised to a staggering 300 million berries prior to leaving 7 Luffy also received a visit from his grandfather monkey dear who was a vice admiral of the Marines GARP then informed Luffy that the latter half of the grand lion was known as the new world and was ruled by the yonko of the four Emperors one of which was Luffy's Idol redhead Shanks the others being Whitebeard the strongest man in the world and two

as of yet unmet characters known only as big mom and kaido to top everything off it was also revealed that Dragon was Luffy's father Dragon being the man who saved Luffy in logtown and who was known as the leader of the Revolutionary Army and the most wanted man in the world also had a brief reunion with Kobe who was serving undercarp and who had undergone quite a Growth spurt and now held the dream of becoming a Marine Admiral as the straw hats were about to leave water to 7 with Robin safely returned and a new

recruiting Frankie all that was left was to reacquire Usopp who would go on to apologize for his actions and be warmly welcomed back into the crew as they embarked on their next adventure but just before we leave this Saga two more events of Staggering importance to the greater world would occur the first of Which being a meeting between Shanks and Whitebeard two of the aforementioned four emperors of the sea Shanks had come to visit Whitebeard in order to warn him to call back Ace who was in pursuit of Blackbeard telling him that it was Blackbeard

who dealt Shanks the scar on his face however Whitebeard refused to do so and the two had somewhat of a heated disagreement which ended in them both drawing their weapons and committing a single strike so powerful That it split the very sky above them clean open at the same time on bonaro island it was too late anyway as Ace had finally Tracked Down Blackbeard Ace had been hunting him down to secure Vengeance as Blackbeard was responsible for the murder of thatch the fourth division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates Blackbeard committed this act in order to

obtain a devil fruit that that had discovered known as the yumy yamy no me a loio type fruit that gives its user The ability to conjure manipulate and become darkness which is also said to be the most evil of all devil fruits and Blackbeard goes on to demonstrate this power firsthand by engaging in combat with firefist Ace and while the results of this battle were unknown at the time it would go on to be the Catalyst for an entire Saga to come hello and welcome to the ground Line review your source for everything on p

and more specifically sagas in Minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge leap Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we'll be delving into one of the most mysterious areas of the world to take part in the adventure known as the Thriller bar Saga Thriller bar is the fifth Saga in the series consisting of but a single Arc spanning 48 chapters and 45 episodes thus making it the shortest Saga in the entire series thus far after leaving Water 7 the straw hats have their sight set on traveling to fisherman Island

however in order to get there they are forced to enter a stretch of sea known as the Florian triangle which is categorized by being covered in folk so incredibly thick that sunlight simply cannot penetrate it as a result this area of the world is very creepy and mysterious kind of like the beginning of a horror film and expectations of this location are fulfilled immediately with The appearance of a ghost ship and more importantly a talking skeleton named Brooke who is a self-proclaimed gentleman despite his habit of continuously asking to see women's panties now of course

there is an inor explanation for this Skeleton Man being that he consumed a devil fruit that allowed his soul to return to his body after death however due to the thick fog of the Oran triangle it uh well it took him an awfully long time to find his Body by which point it was just bones well bones and an afro and in a move that shocks everyone Luffy immediately invites Brooke to join the straw hats to which Brooke casually agreed however there are of course complications that need to be solved before this idea can be

brought to fruition these complications being that Brook's Shadow has been stolen and in the one piece world if you do not have a shadow apparently you burst into flames old School vampire style upon contact with sunlight now book Shadow was stolen by the ever fish gecko Moria of warlord of the sea who reigned Supreme in the Florian triangle aboard the world's largest pirate ship thrill laark so there are two very important things to know about gecko Moria one he has a distaste for performing any sort of physical activity whatsoever and number two He is building

an army of zombies to allow him to take down his old rival and Now one of the Emperors of the sea kaido and beyond that he is also pursuing the dream of becoming the pirate king and so the straw hats B Thriller bar resulting in a lot of zombie shenanigan R and in the process the shadows of Luffy Zoro Sanji and Robin are all stolen by morio now Luffy being worth of whopping 300 million berries these days was deemed a powerful enough Shadow to insert into a particularly special corpse an alleged evil giant once named

o so with Luffy's Shadow and morio's Powers o is reanimated but with Luffy's personality but more and him in a bit because soon enough the STW has become engaged in a conflict with the mysterious four a group of individuals including Mori himself who command the most power on thrill of AR in addition to Mori we have Absalon the user of the sukumi the devil fruit that allows him to turn invisible and his motivations for the large majority of the Ark are to forcibly Marry Army he attempts this many many many many many times one of

which is put to a stop by an enraged Sanji enraged for two reasons the first of which being his own personal affections for Nami and the other being the fact that consuming the Suk sukumi had always been a dream of his in order for him to be able to spy on naked ladies then we have Dr Hogback who is the Mind behind fashioning together a legion of corpses for Moria to insert Shadows into Hogback Was once well respected by straw hat member Tony Tony Chopper although this turned into Fierce disgust once Chopper realized what Hogback

was using his medical knowledge to achieve and as for the final member of the mysterious four we have perona a girl with the power of the horror hor enemy which allows her to amongst other things conjure ghosts that force people into crippling depression and unfortunately for her she is matched up against Usopp who holds a natural Immunity to the ghosts due to the fact that he is already overly negative about life in general in the meantime Brooke also embarks on a mission to retrieve his shadow which has been inserted into the corpse of a powerful

legendary Samurai named RMA Brooke proves unable to defeat the Samurai Zombie at which point Zoro steps in eventually overcoming RMA which not only returns Brook Shadow but also earns Zoro a shiny new new sword named shuu and after the Straw hats had taken down the primary members with the morio's crew they are immediately forced into combat with ORS and while this proves to be quite the spectacle they are unable to overcome him especially once geekam Mori himself enters the zombie and begins piloting him like a giant robot however elsewhere a band of pirates who had

become trapped on Thriller bar see some hope in Luffy and insert 100 Shadows into him transforming him into Nightmare Luffy Nightmare Luffy then goes on to prove exceptionally Superior to Moria and oos in every way however ORS would return to combat requiring the entirety of the STW hat crew to work together to put him down for good at this point gecko Moria assumes his final form by absorbing 1,000 Shadows however the power becomes too overwhelming for him to control and he is defeated by Luffy in oneon-one combat resulting in all of the Shadows being returned

to their previous owners And this is usually where we'd start wrapping up the arc I guess however there is a plot twist of foot here and as it turns out gecko Mario was not the only wallet of the sea present on thrill of Ark and barola yukuma emerges easily defeating all of the heavily fatigued combatants remaining all but Zoro that is who offers his own life in exchange for that of his captains Kuma then agrees to the deal and uses his devil fruit abilities to remove all of the Pain and fatigue from Luffy passing it

onto Zoro however phenomenally Zoro survives this encounter at which point Kuma promptly leaves the island and when questioned what had occurred while everyone else was unconscious Zoro simply claimed that nothing happened having defeated the big bad a party then occurs at which point we are treated to the tragic backstory of Brooke who has a connection to the whale Labon whom the straw hats had met upon entering the Ground line and as it turns out it is his dream to return to reverse mountain and deliver the last song of his long part cast on pirate crew

to the now adult whale who once followed them at Sea and in order to one day achieve this Brook officially joins the straw hats and they leave through laark but not before the narrator ominously points out that while thrak had been anchored in the Florian triangle for 10 years the mystery surrounding the waters began Long before that and we get a glimpse of a certain creature in the fog that completely dwarfs the largest pirate ship in the world and thus bringing an end to the thrill of AR Saga hello and welcome to the Grand Line

review your source for everything one piece and more specifically Saga in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we'll be covering a big one as we Explore the climax of the first half of the series with the incredible Paramount War Saga the Paramount War Saga is the sixth in the series consisting of 108 chapters and 122 anime episodes both of which you know sound pretty reasonable for Saga but we actually have an astonishing amount of ground to cover Within These boundaries

so much so that I have actually made the decision to split this Saga up into two videos because even Though this is meant to be a heavily Abridged Series condensing it all into one video just doesn't do it any form of coherent justice but with that in mind let's begin this climactic journey following their departure of thrak the straw hats arrive on the final island of the first half of the grand line the Sab archipelago in search of a coating mechanic to treat their ship so that they may visit the underwater realm of fisherman Island

in this effort they Stumble upon the legendary figure silv Ry the first mate of the for pirate king who takes an immediate liking to Luffy and agrees to code the thous and sunny here the straw hats also make friends with a former enemy and a current mermaid however after the mermaid is captured and sold at a slave auction Luffy reacts rather explosively and ends up punching a world Noble in his excuse for a face this action results in the immediate summoning of a marine Admiral To the island in this case kizaru an absurdly powerful man

who wields a loia devil fruit that allows him to conjure manipulate and become light however Luffy and the straw hats are not the only Infamous group on the island at the moment as rather fatefully there are at least nine other Pirates present who hold bounties of over 100 million berries these figures are going to become exceptionally important as we go forward so to briefly go through them we Have the Roar of the sea scratchman AO the magician Basel Hawkins Capone gang bee red flag Diaz Drake big eater jewelry bnny mad monar Rouge the surgeon of

death tralala Massacre Soldier killer and eustus Captain kid and along with Luffy and Zoro this group of 11 individuals are collectively dubbed as the supern NOS but due to Luffy's actions all hell breaks loose for each and every single one of them forcing some to flee the island immediately Fight a legion of Marines or even face off against adron kizaru directly which uh did not go very well for those who went with option number three including the straw hats actually who end up in a desperate situation facing off against kizaru as well as another dude

who comes out of nowhere and even warlord of the sea barthol yukuma shows up for the action in this no win situation the straw hats are briefly rescued by Silver's Ry however after a super secret Discussion with Kuma Ry allows him to split up the straw hats and send them flying all over the globe with the powers of his devil fruit the niku niku no me Luffy struggles desperately to stop this but he must endure watching his entire crew disappear before his eyes one by one until he finally succumbs to the same fate with Bartholomew

Kuma's parting words to Luffy being that the two of them will not meet again as a result of Kuma's Powers Luffy and the rest of the straw hats are sent flying for 3 days before landing on the respective islands that they were sent to in Luffy's case he was sent to Amazon Lily an Island located within the C belt which serves as the home to the old female KOJA tribe as well as wallard of the sea Boa Hancock and after walking in on her bathing Luffy is eventually forced into combat with the Gorgon sisters but

after proving immune to the charms of hanok as Well as being a bit of a boss in the Coliseum boa has a change of heart a massive change of heart actually which causes her to fall head over heels in love with Luffy these feelings are not reciprocated shortly after Luffy receives the news that his brother Port gasty Ace has been apprehended by the Marines thus essentially informing us that Ace lost his fight against Blackbeard on banaro island and not only that but Ace was also scheduled to be Executed prompting Luffy to change his plans of

finding his crew in order to save his brother a Love Struck Bo hanok then agrees to help her new infatuation and they set sail for impel down the world's most secure prison with hanock planning on using her status as a warlord of the sea to sneak Luffy in however in doing this she also agrees to respond to a summoning to Marine foit where the full force of the Marines had been Gathering anticipating an allout War with emperor of the Sea and the strongest man in the world Whitebeard in fact the Marines were provoking this war

using Whitebeard subordinate Ace as bait to lure out his full forces into an unfavorable combat situation and as such pretty much every Marine we've ever met in the series is seen preparing for the upcoming battle meanwhile Luffy was successfully able to infiltrate impul down thanks to the help of hanok and he finds himself causing a fair bit of Chaos attempting to get all the way down to level six where Ace is being held during this time he collects a makeshift grw of former enemies many of whom actually have Luffy to thank for being imprisoned but

that doesn't stop them from forming a greatest hits group and bursting their way through to level four of the prison at this point they encounter the prison Warden mellan who rather easily deals with Luffy due to his ridiculous devil fruit which is a Parames type that allows him to generate and control poison after his defeat Luffy is dumped on level five to die but he and his last remaining Ally Bon clay are saved by a mysterious figure named inauma who takes the duo to the secret level 5.5 of impel down also known as New cand

which is governed by Emporio ianov Queen of the Kaka Kingdom and a member of the Revolutionary Army conveniently led by Luffy's father Monkey D dragon as a result not only Does evov save Luffy with his devil fruit abilities but he also agrees to assist Luffy in Saving Ace believing that Ace may also be the son of his comrade dragon and so with even K Ino Zuma's power behind him Luffy finally makes it to level six only to discover that Ace had already been taken to marineford for his scheduled execution however this was far from a

fruitless Endeavor as Luffy gathers two more allies one being jinbe a former warlord Of the sea who refused to take part in the upcoming war against Whitebeard and was thus arrested as well as Sir crocodile another former warlord hul Luffy defeated on Alabaster this group along with the new kmer forces and an Ever growing Army of prisoners proved to be incredibly overwhelming for the gods of impal down to deal with however at the same time that this breakout is being conducted the prison is also invaded from the outside as Blackbeard Now a warlord himself as

a result of capturing Ace storms the prison in search of strong individuals to serve as part of his crew and with so much chaos occurring throughout the facility melan then makes the single worst decision of the entire Arc and decides to free a former Warden named shudu who had been imprisoned for gross abuse of power and requested his assistance on the matter but of course in predictable fashion shiru immediately betrays the trust by Slaughtering the gods that were sent to free him but with one set of people attempting to escape the prison and another set

attempting to infiltrate it was only natural that These two factions would meet on their respective Journeys resulting in Luffy immediately kicking into combat against Blackbeard as he was responsible for Ace's current situation but Luffy would be stopped by jinbe wisely advising him that this is not the time or the place and the two groups Peacefully parted ways with Blackbeard's final words of warning being that in a few hours they'll put on a show that'll shake the world this peaceful party of ways would not continue though as Blackbeard and his crew soon ran into mellin who

swiftly dealt with the entire crew with his poison and left them to die however in a stunning display of Fate The Crew would be saved by shudu Who provided them with an antidote to melan's poison and so they continued on Their journey to level six meanwhile despite a Relentless Pursuit from the warden mellin Luffy's group are eventually able to escape from the prison as The A Team consisting of crocodile do bones and buggy make their way to secure a marine Battleship and jinbe invokes one of his many incredible powers to summon a legion of wh

sharks to escort the remaining prisoners to the ship however this Escape was not without cost as Bon clay stayed behind using his Devil fruit abilities to impersonate mellin in order to force the employees of the prison to open the gates of Justice thus allowing Luffy and the prisoners to properly Escape rather awkwardly though the real mellin then storms in wondering exactly what's going on and finds Bon clay he then asks him if he has any last words to which Bon clay smugly gives a one-word answer being satisfaction and so Luffy and his group gratefully accept

bonay selfless Assistance and set sail towards a new destination of marineford meanwhile at the headquarters only 3 hours remain until the public execution of Ace as he is being forced to walk up a lengthy set of stairs to his very own execution platform in the process remembering a promise he once made to Luffy to live a life without regret and with more freedom than anybody else thus bringing an end to the first half of the Paramount War Saga hello and welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything one piece and more specifically sagas

in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we'll be continuing with the most explosive Saga in the series to date with part two of The Paramount War the Paramount War Saga as stated in the previous video is the sixth in the series consisting of 108 chapters and 122 anime episodes and where we last left off Luffy had assembled a makeshift crew of former enemies and new found friends to escape the world's most secure prison in pal down and is now on

route to marineford in in order to rescue his brother Ace from execution however the action is not simply going to wait for our protagonist as that Marine fit a force of roughly 100,000 Marines have been assembled in preparation for a conflict with Whitebeard one of the four Emperors of the Sea and the strongest man in the world amongst them are a Litany of old faces that we've encountered in the series thus far as well as some newcomers to the audience with particular note needing to go to Admiral Akainu a mysterious figure whose brutality and absolute

Justice is already notorious at this point in the series his presence also signifies the first time that we have seen the three Admirals gathered together in one place and collectively they make up the greatest military power that the Marines are capable of mustering and in addition to this the five remaining members of the seven Warlords of the sea also stand primed and ready for action however there is at least one figure who remains tentative about the events to come being vice admiral GARP grandfather of Monkey D Luffy and caretaker of the man sentenced to be

executed P Gast Ace it Is then revealed to the world that in addition to being the second division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates Ace is also the biological son of the former pirate king gold D Roger adding further evidence to the claim that he must be extinguished from the world however the world was not simply going to stand by and let this happen as its strongest man boldly set sail into marineford accompanied not only by his 16 core divisions but also a fleet of Allied Pirates ready to wage war on the world government in order

to rescue Ace you see one of the most notable things about Whitebeard is that he does not simply collect comrades and allies he is a man who values family Above All Else and everyone who joins him even if they aren't a direct member of the Whitebeard Pirates is considered a son of this man and so they were more than ready to fight for the life of their brother as such the Paramount War would commence With an opening attack from Whitebeard he used his devil fruit powers to craft a tidal wave that threatened to engulf Marine

foood a move which was counted by the ice powers of marine Admiral aliji and after that all hell broke loose to briefly examine whitebeard's forces the two people of particular note were the first division Commander Marco the Phoenix who possessed a mythical Zone and type that allowed him to transform into a phoenix and third division Commander Diamond josu who wielded a param type fruit allowing him to transform his body into diamond and in true top tier form these two would go on to have immediate skirmishes with Marine Admiral kizaru and drael mihawk respectively instantly proving

that this was no simple conflict and that the world would be irrevocably changed no matter which side won this battle of course it did not take too long for the casualties to begin with the first of Note being little Oz Junior who was fighting because Ace once gave him a hat which you know is a pretty solid reason for fighting regardless he was outmatched by Don kot do Flamingo who sliced off his foot and was then skewed through the stomach by the powers of gecko Moria but it was not simply two sides fighting here as

soon enough Luffy and his jailbreak Squad made something of a grand entrance onto the battlefield captivating the attention of everyone With his group containing two former Warlords of the sea and a member of the Revolutionary Army oh and buggy the clown was also there leaping straight into action in a classic Luffy manner he got into a verbal argument with the strongest man in the world regarding who was going to save Ace after which Whitebeard took an immediate liking to Luffy and would go on to order his forces to protect him at costs after witnessing his

potential which occurred In the form of a powerful burst of conqueror haki the coach of the battlefield this would not be the only sign of Luffy's potential though in fact a far more terrifying ability was prominently on display during the entirety of his campaign at marineford you see the thing is that Luffy did not belong on this battlefield he was constantly surrounded by figures who dwarfed him in both power and experience however Luffy was a true force to be Reckoned with here because wherever he went a powerful Ally would follow for example instead of getting

into a fight with gam Moria jinbe stepped into with the spooky warlord elsewhere after being assaulted by smoker boa hanock arrived and summarily dismissed him and when Luffy was faced with bolom Yuma Emporio even cented the fry and allowed him to proceed onwards to free Ace and all of this was noted by a single individual on the battlefield being the world's Greatest swordsman drul mihawk who had his own Luffy moment after the fifth division commander of the Whitebear Pirates Vista leapt in to defend him from certain demise but even with this mihawk came to the

realization that despite his lack of strength at this time Luffy possessed by far the most formidable ability in the world although even this power could only take Luffy so far at this time as eventually he found himself face to face with all three Marine Admirals and while he did come up with an unconventionally clever Luffy ploy to attempt to get past them he was met with a kick from kizaru and forced back during this time chaos continued to erupt all throughout the battlefield with matchup after matchup of world figures such as crocodile versus DOL Flamingo

Marco versus aliji and when Whitebeard got serious well he was just casually bringing down Giants in single hits we also probably shouldn't ignore That during all of this buggy was failing upwards and Gathering a loyal Legion of followers as a result of his exceptionally lucky encounters with World figures this got to the point where his followers stole a visual denden mushy and buggy improvised a commercial of sorts for himself claiming that he was a former member of the Roger Pirates which you know he was and thus profoundly spreading his name throughout the world in a

single burst another Character of note would be Kobe who was struggling with the thought of fighting against Luffy and then when he did finally resolve to do it he got a swift punch in the face hole for his efforts and as AC his execution Drew nearer and nearer Luffy was finally given the chance to get straight up to the platform courtesy of inauma however this time the man who would stop his Advance would be the hero of the Marines and Luffy's grandfather monkey dear who Claimed that if Luffy wanted to pass then he would have

to kill him first but what happened next would Astound everybody as the two began to clash however GARP was hit by a sudden surge of emotion remembering Luffy and Ace's children and so he allowed Luffy to punch him and GARP plummeted off the bridge much to the extreme shock of every Marine watching at the time but with that Luffy had finally made it to the execution platform although there Was still one unfathomable challenge awaiting him in Fleet Admiral sangoku who invoked his mythical Z and devil fruit Powers immediately but was counted by Luffy's rubbery balloony

goodness and now at this stage I should point out that galdino a former enemy and one of the prisoners Luffy sprung from impel down had infiltrated the Marines in the guise of an executioner and was currently on the platform with Luffy and soku and in fact it's all thanks to Galdino producing a wax key that Luffy was finally able to free Ace and with fire Fist Ace proudly on the loose the tide of battle finally began to turn towards the favor of the Whitebeard Pirates Ace's loia Powers proved so devastating that he even fought Marine

Admiral aliji to a stand still however even with his goal accomplished Whitebeard was determined to continue the battle issuing a final order to his crew to return to the new world and Stating that this would be where they part ways claiming that no ship would be capable of carrying him into the new era but this declaration would not be the end of the tragedy of marineford far from it actually as shortly after after Ace was goed into replying to Admiral Aku after he insulted Whitebeard Ace then thrust himself into combat only to discover that even

his fire was incapable of overcoming the magma abilities of aren's devil fruit however Ace was able to accomplish one thing and that was saving Luffy's life because just as Aku was about to kill him Ace shielded Luffy with his body and received a fatal blow through the chest at this moment a contingent of forces including jinbe Marco and Vista arrived to combat Areno but they were too late Ace mere moments away from death death provided some parting words to Luffy apologizing for not being able to be rescued but also telling Luffy that he Truly believed

that he could become the pirate king his final words were then directed at Whitebeard his fellow crewm mates and of course Luffy as he thanked them for loving him the son of a criminal despised throughout the Civilized world and with that the time of Port gasty Ace had officially run out he collapsed in death with a trademark will ofd smile on his face and leaving Luffy in a near catatonic state of despair meanwhile Gap had a very Different reaction and raged to the point where he had to be restrained by soku and threatening to kill

Aku for his actions here G was not the only one after aku's head though as he was soon confronted directly by Whitebeard and swiftly beat down by the World's Strongest Man although it should be said that Aku did manage to blow off a huge chunk of whitebeard's head in the process and it would be here at the 11th Hour that a new contingent arrived at Marineford consisting of the known members of the Blackbeard Pirates and a cohort of escapes from level six of impel Whitebeard wasted no time in attacking Blackbeard who was responsible for killing

a former division Commander as well as condemning Ace to this fate in the first place but with everything said and done Whitebeard was unable to deliver the final killing blow and the collective forces of the Blackbeard Pirates assaulted him with a barrage of Fatal attacks that would bring an end to the story of Whitebeard as for his final words Whitebeard chose to set the world a blaze by claiming that one day someone will arise to challenge the world and shoulder centuries of history and further exclaimed that the one piece did indeed exist before drawing his

final breath from here we are given a glimpse of Whitebeard as a young man showing that his dreams in the world of piracy never Had to do with wealth fame or power and instead whitebeard's true desire in life had only ever been to have a family Whitebeard then passed from this world after taking a total of 267 sword wounds 152 bullets 46 cannonballs a laser beam through the chest and a magma fist to the face but even with all of that his body remained standing at the at this point Blackbeard enacted the next stage of

his grand plan covering whitebeard's body and somehow managing to acquire his Devil fruit thus becoming the first known character in the series to wield two devil fruit abilities which he swiftly put to use starting a battle with Fleet Admiral sangoku meanwhile akeno had recovered and was relentlessly pursuing Luffy determined to kill him before he became a threat to the world government in the end a variety of allies came to Luffy's Aid once more with a particularly unexpected appearance from fellow Supernova tragal Law who offered to facilitate Luffy's Escape aboard his submarine but the most surprising

act came from the most unlikely of individuals being Kobe who stood in the way of Aku claiming that the Marines had accomplished their mission and that any further Bloodshed was a waste of human life and while Kobe was prepared to die for his insubordination this act would be one of the most pivotal moments of the war as it allowed the time for emperor of the Sea redhead Shanks and his crew the redhair Pirates to arrive onto the battlefield and here they made an ultimatum to all parties claiming that if anybody still wanted to fight then

they would be going up against them after which point Blackbeard wisely decided to retreat and Fleet Admiral sang Goku officially declared that the Paramount war was over hello and welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything one Piece and more specifically welcome to sagas in minutes the very occasionally produced series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we are finally finally going to be concluding the massive piece of story that was the Paramount War Saga so I've stated this a couple of

times already but the Paramount War Saga is the sixth in the series consisting of 108 manga chapters And22 anime episodes and in previous editions we have explored the straw hat separation Luffy's adventures and impel down and spent an entire episode covering the events of the Paramount War itself and today we find ourselves covering the post-war events of this Saga and we pick up in the immediate aftermath of the battle of marineford the strongest man in the world Edward Newgate has fallen and the Marines have emerged Victorious and this is an event That would reshape the

World As We Know It with pirates everywhere immediately springing into action to claim white Beard's former territories in an effort to fill the power vacuum left by the death of one of the four Emperors of the sea one such example of this would be brownbeard who attacked the town of food volon and claimed that he now ruled the island well we'll see how long that lasts he Brown beard but repercussions of the War aren't simply condensed to Those affected by Whitebeard as the world government has also begun to readjust the warlord system and the powers

that be judg the gecko Moria was now too weak to be amongst their ranks assigning fellow wall of DOL Flamingo to assassinate him although this attempt was ultimately unsuccessful to start filling the vacancies left by Moria and Blackbeard though the W government invite a most unlikely candidate into their ranks being buggy the clown who Made a name for himself during the battle mainly through shooting propaganda videos but nonetheless buggy had developed an impressive following and would come to accept this offer and become a warlord of the sea meanwhile in a more somber State Luffy was

taken to Amazon Lily and having regained Consciousness he is now lamenting Ace's death which becomes out Gateway into a most unanticipated Luffy flashback where we find ourselves on dwn island 10 years Prior to the modern day this story tells of how Luffy's grandfather GARP took him to be raised by Mountain Bandits after being in G's own words influenced to become a pirate by redhead Shanks so at this point Luffy has a straw hat as well as his dream to become the pirate king the Bandit group he was dropped off with was led by curly ddan

a name that has come up before in the series being mentioned by whoop slap remember whoop slap but also present within the Bandit's territory is a young pasty Ace whom GARP had also taken in and then promptly dropped off with Bandits after a request from his rival Goldie Roger the father of Mr Ace now Luffy being the Charming boy he is immediately attempted to make friends with Ace despite the fact that Ace had spat on him and very very clearly wanted nothing to do with him but as we all know Luffy is persistent and eventually

after a montage he stumbles upon Ace and another Boy by the name of Sabo in a series of events whereby Luffy was captured by a member of a group known as the blue Jam Pirates specifically by the member Port Chi and now in what is probably one of the darkest moments in one piece history Port chmi proceeds to torture a very even young Luffy until he is eventually saved by Ace and saber which acts as something of a bonding experience and the three boys soon become friends and shortly after that they even take things To

the next level by becoming Brothers Through the ritual drinking of sake now something important to note about Sabo is that he comes from a very different background to Luffy and Ace and in fact Sabo is the son of nobility of the go Kingdom the ruling faction of dor Island specifically a man named Outlook II who hired the blue Jam Pirates to find and return Sabo which they successfully did and after being reindo into his life of aristocracy Sabo soon discovers a plan To cleanse the Goa Kingdom by setting fire to the entirety of the gray

terminal an area of the island where the poorest of the poor reside and this was being done because a world Noble was on their way to inspect the Goa Kingdom and so Sabo ran away once more in an attempt to warn everyone but it was too late as the fire had already been ignited also trapping Luffy Ace and the blue Jam Pirates amongst it now the majority of the citizens including Sabo actually Would go on to be saved by a certain Monkey D Dragon who invoked a particular power to provide the great terminal residents with

a path to safety and even offering those who desired it a place amongst his revolutionary Army in the meantime amongst the blaze Ace and dadan became locked in combat with Captain blue Jam while Luffy was taken to safety by the rest of the mountain Bandits but together Ace and dadan would have a hard for battle but they would eventually Overcome bluej jam with Dam becoming greatly injured in the process and being carried back to the Bandit residence by Ace although by this time Sabo had made the decision to set sail and fulfill his dream of

becoming a pirate unfortunately though he picked quite probably the worst possible time and day to do so as his quote unquote ship aesthetically offended the visiting World Noble who immediately took out a massive bazooka style gun and fired it directly on Sabo Leading us to believe that Sabo perished that day spoiler alert he didn't and we never believed that Ace and Luffy did though and that's what's important in fact they both took sabo's death particularly hard although Ace eventually summoned up the resolve to say to Luffy that they had to live their lives with no

regrets that one of these days they were going to live lives Freer than anybody they were bound to make enemies and their lives would be in Constant Danger that they would be free Ace then decided that he and Luffy would each set sail when they reached the age of 17 a time which came swiftly for Ace and then also for Luffy which took us back into the modern day with Luffy still gutted over the death of Ace and disgusted by the fact that he was too weak to have saved him but instead of Ace being

here to comfort Luffy this time that role would fall to jinbe who proceeded to lovingly strangle Luffy and Force him to remember that he still had his crew all of the straw hats were out there ready and waiting to resume their adventure with Luffy but a reunion would not be quite that simple this is because by this time rayy had literally swam to Amazon Lily because that's just what a living legend can do casually swim through the C belt like that but upon arriving on the island he offered to train Luffy in the art of

haki a power system that had made vague appearances Before now but that we had never really delved into but this offer would be the Catalyst of Luffy deciding that the straw hat Pirates would take a 2-year Hiatus and in order to pass this message on to the rest of the crew Luffy jinbe and Raye caused a big scene by sailing to the remains of marineford in the guys of paying their respects to The Departed Ace however the sneakily Luffy was also sporting a tattoo on his arm sure to be photographed and published in newspapers All

around the world which read as 3D 2i with the 3D crossed out implying that instead of meeting up in 3 days they were instead going to reunite on sabid in 2 years and all of the straw hats imediately understood this message as well as the fact that they themselves needed to get stronger so that they could not only achieve their own dreams but also allow Luffy to reach his dream with becoming the pirate king and this led to an unwavering display of loyalty Amongst the crew especially from Zoro who had been sent to kurana Island

the home of drael mihawk the world's greatest swordsman this was the man that Zoro had his sight set on defeating however for the sake of Luffy Zora got on his hands and knees and begged mihawk to train him and all of the straw hats would find themselves in similarly convenient situations thanks to the efforts of baralo Muma in regards to Nami she was now present on a tiny Sky Island known as W areia where she would be able to study and innovate with the world's leading weather scientist who s was plunked on the boy in

archipelago where he would meet heracle and be taught about all sorts of incredibly dangerous yet powerful plants that could be harnessed for a variety of purposes very much including combat Sanji to his eternal dismay was sent to the Kaka Kingdom the land of okama ruled by Emporio ianov who you may remember was An ally of Luffy during the impel down at Marine for dos and after a rough start to say the least Sanji took up the challenge of defeating the 99 masters of new Kempo with each of them holding a special recipe for a dish

designed to drastically improve a certain aspect of anybody who consumes it choa would end up within the Torino Kingdom in South Blue which while it initially seems like a fairly backwards tribal area of the world was actually home to an extensive Library of various rare and unique medical texts that once belonged to a significantly Advanced culture Niko Robin was probably given the roest deal of all at first being sent to the bridge nation of tequila wolf a bridge that has been under construction for 700 years at the time of Robin's arrival where she was captured

and made a slave until being rescued by the Revolutionary Army and then accepting their offer to travel to baltigo and therefore spent the 2-year time skip incorporating all of the knowledge that the organization had gathered led by Luffy's father Monkey D Dragon Frankie found him himself on kakuri island which as it turns out was the birthplace of the legendary World Government scientist Dr vegapunk as well as home to one of his former Laboratories well two of his former Labs which was very good use of Frankie after he accidentally self-destructed one of them luckily that was

the least Important one and finally Brooke in probably the weirdest situation of all landed on namakura island in the middle of a cultist ritual after which he was worshiped as Satan for quite some time before being abducted by select members of a longarm tribe and becoming a traveling Sideshow attraction all the while working on his musical prowess that would eventually see him turn into a global Superstar as for the rest of the world though the other notable Factor is that the entirety of the worst generation minus Luffy Zoro and law the latter of Fu was

currently on Amazon Lily after having treated Luffy's injuries all embarked into the new world with many facing immediate challenges of the world's most unpredictable sea and that just leaves us with Luffy who was taken to the island of rusuka by Ry to begin his hoaky training and after demonstrating the basics of all three forms of haky Luffy realized that he had Encountered these Powers over the course of his journey and was astonished at Ra's capacity in regards to wielding them however before finally beginning his training there was one thing left to do as Luffy removed

his Straw Hat ceremoniously indicating that he was putting his pirate Journey on hold only to be recommenced in 2 years time hello and welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything one piece and more specifically sagas in Minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we are heading into the new world at last in order to examine the first block of Post Time skip story being the fisherman Island Saga the fisherman Island Saga is the seventh in the series as

well as the first of the new world era which takes place over the course of two arcs with a total of 56 manga chapters and a very suspiciously long 57 Anime episodes so we are well and truly into anime filler territory here but oddly enough we pick up right where we left off on rusina with a shot of the iconic Straw Hat except this time there has been a 2-year time Skip and during this time Luffy appears to have made quite a lot of animal friends however the point to resume his journey to become the

pirate king as has come and Boa Hancock arrives to escort him back to sabid in order to meet up with the Rest of his crew and good God will theyve all either gained weight decreased in aesthetic appeal or have changed species entirely from a reindeer to a fox it's just amazing what two years can do to a person thankfully these straw hats are all 100% fake as a crew led by one dear black has sprung up during Luffy's absence to take advantage of their notoriety however rather unfortunately for deara black he ends up accidentally encountering

the real Straw Hat Luffy which does not end well for him no not at all but amongst all of this trash our of course the gems that are the real straw hats all of whom have evolved over their two years of various training and the crew slowly begins to find each other and reform their ship Thousand Sunny is also present thanks largely to bolom Muma who struck a deal with Dr vegapunk to reprogram him to protect the vessel until a member of the straw hats return to it with that said Things are not all fine

and dandy on the archipelago because the four submarines and pacifista are on the hunt for the straw hats which results in our first proper Post Time skip altercation whereby Luffy Zoro and Sanji all have the opportunity to demonstrate how much they have grown by near in instantly dispatching the cyborg Warriors as for the rest of the Marines various Straw Hat allies had gathered to assist their escape including Luffy's mentor and Former right-hand man of Goldy Roger Silver rley And just before heading off on his journey the last words Luffy says to Ry are I'm going

to do it I'm going to be the pirate king which brings a tear to the eye of the elderly Legend who then proceeds to engage in a sneaky flashback of the day where he first met Roger and it is revealed that one of the previous owners of Luffy's Straw Hat was in fact Roger himself back to the straw hats now and they have no real time to Enjoy their reunion as thanks to ra having coed their ship they dive straight down to visit fisherman island with nami flawlessly navigating their way to the ocean floor only

to be met by a band of representatives from the new fisherman Pirates and interestingly enough these Pirates appear to be aware of the straw Hat's history recognizing Luffy as the man who had beaten arlong in East blue but they are also aware that they protected harchan and so the Straw hats are given two choices either join the new fisherman Pirates or be sunk right here and now so naturally of course Luffy and his crew take option three which is to force their way into fisherman Island via rud burst which dispels its coating and scatters the

straw hats all over the island with the first group waking up in a house owned by Cy who was the mermaid that they had all met on their first trip to sabid and soon enough they also meet up with Another acquaintance being pooke who has become an exceptionally famous fashion designer Rich enough to have bought a house in the very ritsy goov Hills whilst all of this is occurring though a much darker side to fisherman island is slowly playing out firstly featuring the aforementioned new fisherman Pirates Who are revealed to be led by a figure

known as hod Jones with their intended Mission being something of a revolution aiming to take control of fish Island and Spread their anti-human sentiments amongst its people I guess amongst its fishermen very notably hodi and his primary crew members were heavily inspired by the Ambitions of Al who himself derived his hatred of humans as a result from his experiences with Fisher tiger who is well he's one of the most tragic figures in this world having once being taken as a slave by the world Nobles and even though he did manage to escape tiger would return

to the Holy Land of marijua by scaling the red line in order to launch a full on assault of the world Nobles whilst there he sought to free as many slaves as he could which quite notably featured a very young Bo h [ __ ] and the rest of the Gorgon sisters after returning from this endeavor Fisher tiger then formed the sun Pirates an all fisherman crew heavily populated by former slaves who embarked on the mission of wrecking Havoc against the world of humanity and providing a ray of Hope for the future of the Fishman

race and This Crew included many well-known figures to the modern Story featuring Al Haan and even jinbe however tragedy would strike This Crew when they took a child named koala aboard a human but also a former slave as such tiger agreed to return koala to her home Island however the residents of the island returned this kindness by alerting the Marine to their presence which resulted in Tiger escaping but sustaining heavy Injuries and after refusing a transfusion of human blood tiger passed away admitting that he could never accept Humanity but also asking his crew mates not

to let their own personal hatred affect the Next Generation and opinion amongst the sun Pirates was very split on that last idea with arlong's personal hatred spreading to Hod Jones and the new fisherman Pirates were formed as a result of that however this group in the modern day also had another Ally in their Endeavor who was a man named vaned dein the 9th who had I guess what we'll call a cripplingly unhealthy infatuation with the mermaid princess shiroshi so much so that she had needed to be locked up for the better part of a decade

due to his devil fruit powers and fear for her safety but Dean and the new fisherman Pirates then formed an alliance vowing to change fisherman Island forever having briefly brought up fisherman royalty though eventually Luffy and cohort of straw hats are found by King Neptune who invites them to his Palace at which point Luffy stumbles upon the aforementioned princess shiroshi and after a rocky start to this relationship the two very quickly become friends and allies with Luffy even offering to be her bodyguard so that shirahoshi can go and visit her mother's grave now speaking of

shoshi's mother is the second historical figure of grand importance here being Queen otohime who Acted as Fisher Tiger's polar opposite using her life and position primarily to advocate for Fishman human relations and harboring a dream of one day living in peace with Humanity on the surface and her Pure Drive to attain this would be displayed one day when a ship carrying a wal Noble became wrecked on the island which would have resulted in the immediate murder of said Noble under regular circumstances however utahime risked her own life in order to save his And then went

on to accompany him to the surface in order to to discuss her dream with the rest of the world Nobles after returning otohime received overwhelming public support only to be assassinated by a young G hood Jones who framed a human for her death and thus restarted the cycle of hatred on Fishman island in the modern day Hy Jones decided to attack the ryuku palace which resulted in him getting ever so slightly wrecked by Zoro even though the battle took Place underwater however the new fisherman Pirates did eventually capture King Neptune and held him hostage in

gonod Plaza where they gathered their full forces totaling roughly 100,000 members and decided that this was the time to use control of the entire Island also at this stage new fisherman Pirates had accessed a special energy steroid which powered them up significantly turning hood Jones from this into this in the meantime Luffy had escorted Shiroshi to aim's final resting place at which point they were met by jinbe who is quite shocked to see Shir hosi to say the least and after a relatively Pleasant reunion things quickly turn when Jin bit informs Luffy of the complicated

history involving Fisher tiger and alime as well as requests that Luffy stays out of this issue due to the long-standing fisherman grudge against humans but Luffy of course cares not for such things and the two get into a fist Fight which is eventually calmed down by Robin and the group form a plan to stop hod and this plan is fairly simple launch and all out to Salon konko Plaza defeat the new fisherman Pirates and party the night away and most of this goes quite smoothly with Luffy knocking out half of their forces with conquer hockey

and each of the officer members of the new fisherman Pirates are defeated with great ease by the straw hats who each finally get to show off Their new post-time skip skills there is certainly trouble in one aspect though that being Vander dein who after being publicly rejected by shiroshi used his devil fruit powers to send an ancient vessel known as the Noah flying herway which actually threatens to crash into and Destroy fisherman Island and this would also come to serve as Battleground for Luffy to face off against Toody Jones which proves quite difficult for Luffy

actually because he is at a Distinct disadvantage underwater however he does eventually Prevail and then makes the decision to destroy the Noah in order to prevent it from crashing into the island as it turns out these efforts would not be needed though as shiroshi then reveals a super special power in that she can communicate with sea Kings who appear and take the Noah back to its resting place thus saving fisherman Island and shiroshi is able to do this because as it turns out she has Inherited the power of the ancient weapon Poseidon which has passed

down through the ru family line thus making her one of the most important characters in the entire series but following these events the new fisherman Pirates and Vander Dean are captured and begin to suffer the side effects of the energy steroids which rapidly ages them as they all rot away in prison however Luffy ended up sustaining incredibly serious injuries and as Twisted Fate would have It he ends up needing a blood transfusion which is a big Taboo in Fishman Society due to the whole fish Tiga situation however jinbe swiftly volunteers his own blood to the

human pirate putting their bond on full display for all to see and as Luffy recovers he asks jinbe to join his crew and jinbe says yes but also no he basically states that yes he would like to but he has unfinished business to take care of first which is fine I guess I'm sure he'll be along swiftly right right in any case the Peril of fisherman Island isn't over quite yet because two representatives from the pigmon Pirates make their presence known on the island being poms and baron tago and this is because following the death

of white beard Charlotte linlin aka Big mom offered protection to the island protection in quotation marks there under the condition that they produce consistent candy for her and rather Unfortunately this candy production effort was hindered by the events that had just taken place and so Luffy takes responsibility for this claiming that he ate all of the candy and that he would enter the new world in order to defeat big mom and claim fisherman Island for himself and just for good measure he also said that he would become the pirate king so you know just casually

declaring war against one of the four Emperors of the sea right there but to Be fair Luffy's efforts were successful as big momb decided to SP bare Fishman Island and instead Target her full rage towards the straw hat Captain but for now everything is fine and the straw hat say goodbye to their new and old acquaintances with the crew promising to one day take princess Shira hershi to the surface and then they set sail in order to enter the final sea the new world hello and welcome to the ground Line review your source for everything

One piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we are heading into the New World At Last to examine the Mammoth piece of story that is the dress Rosa Saga the dress Rosa Saga is the eighth in the series consisting of two arcs but an absolutely Mega 148 manga chapters which makes it the longest Saga that we have covered to date and as such I'm telling You right here and now this is certainly not going to

be finished within a single video but to kick things off we are finally here as we pick up with the straw hats emerging into the new world and immediately they are met with some of the most chaotic and apocalyptic weather conditions that we have ever faced in the series signifying that this stretch of water is on a completely different level from here and New World log pose presents three possible Destinations to the crew of which Luffy chooses none of them because they also receive a distress call from a location known as Punk has it and

smelling a decent mystery Luffy becomes determined to visit this island the straw hats not the only one to receive the signal however as this transmission is intercepted by now vice admiral smoker and his G5 Marine forces who were lying in wait for Luffy at the island that they suspected he was most likely to Choose but as a result they also set sail for Punk Hazard after arriving on the island the crew splits into two groups with the initi IAL Landing party being Luffy Robin Zoro and Uso who Traverse this fiery hellscape and almost immediately stumble

upon a dragon which is quickly defeated in the meantime the remaining straw hats board Thousand Sunny are captured and imprisoned in a mysterious facility on the other half of punk Hazard which is also a hellscape But a frozen one and here we encounter two very strange things the first of which is a group of children who are being experimented on at the facility and the second is a samurai or part of a samurai named ginon and over the course of punk Hazard gamon's various separated body parts would be collected together to form one unit of

solid Samurai soon enough though it becomes apparent that kinon was rendered in the state by one trala La a member of the worst Generation and who Post Time skip has now become a warlord of the sea and who furthermore appears to be working with the cast of antagonist in control of punk Hazard and LA's presence on the island is first discovered by smoker and the two engage in combat which resulted in L's Victory via removing Smoker's heart with the incredible powers of his devil fruit to make M's worse law is then able to switch the

bodies of smoka and tashigi resulting in tashi's Consciousness being placed into smok's fleshy vessel and vice versa furthermore also goes on to do this with the secondary group of straw hats and Nami Sanji Frankie and choa all undergo a hilarious body Swap and as for who becomes who in this situation well Nami was placed into the body of Frankie resulting in one very pretty cyborg whereas Frankie went into the body of Choppa resulting in the Abomination that is this thing meanwhile Choppa went to The body of Sanji giving us one very adorable chef and finally

Sanji was thrown into the body of Nami which was something of a dream come true for him although he was threatened by the overwhelming Newfound cyborg powers of Nami not to do anything UNT with her body which to be fair he really didn't except for when he started smoking which was kind of a dick move at this point though Luffy stumbles upon law and remembers him being responsible for Saving his life during the Marine fed dark not only providing Luffy with an escape vessel from the wall but also treating his wounds and after some shenanigan

re eventually La approaches Luffy with a bold proposition claiming that he has a plan to take down one of the four Emperors and he even suggests that he and Luffy form an alliance to do so and despite his present crew members warning against the danger of the pirate Alliance Luffy almost immediately Accepts his position and L begins to implement his complicated plan which begins right here on Punk Hazard and he also gradually undo all of the crazy body swapping he implemented within the crew but step one of Law's master plan has to do with the

ultimate antagonist Punk haaz it a man named Caesar Clown who was responsible for experimenting on the children as well as the production of various chemical weapons and producing a substance known as sad or Sad which is then used to create artificial devil fruits by Caesar's benefactors one of which is eventually revealed to be wallard of the sea donot DOL Flamingo who then uses this to do business with an emperor the see that the Luffy Alliance is targeting who is later revealed to be kaido and in order to put a hold to this an operation is

implemented to capture Caesar Clown which is easier said than done because another president arrives on the island In the form of vice admiral Vergo who is a double agent within the Marines and an extreme physical Powerhouse and just on power it should be noted that Caesar Clown isn't exactly a weak existence himself as he had consumed a loia devil type fruit known as the gug gasom which allows him to conjure manipulate and become gas which means that he can do all sorts of crazy crap such as REM remove all of the oxygen from the air

around him which went on to instantly Defeat a whole host of our Good Guys furthermore at this stage a faction of the straw hats get captured by ceser clown along with L smoker and tashigi and at this point they form a temporary alliance with smoker and the G5 Marines after which L restores their bodies and all of a sudden we have quite the miniature Army here marching in full force on Punk Hazard meanwhile Caesar is currently in the process of broadcasting his brand new chemical weapon which Threatens to kill everybody on the island putting a

great sense of urgency into this pirate Marine Alliance and Caesar's weapon would comprise a complex set of operations whereby he infused some of his own poisonous cast and a zoan type devil fruit to create what I would call a big old blob of death which was named Smiley however this was but the tame form of Caesar's weapon as basically after consuming a tasty candy designed for Smiley that would go to Kill the creature then that would reveal the true form of the weapon which was the widespread release of the gas on mass interestingly enough though

this also provided us with the very first example of what happens to a devil fruit after its use it passes away which is that the power immediately reincarnates into the nearest appropriate fruit for future use so very interesting stuff right there and very notably at this point there are also quite a few parties Watching this broadcast who are representatives from Power all over the world and we do recognize certain figures such as peoms and Tomo from the big mom Pirates but also usus kid from the worst generation but many of these figures were entirely unknown

characters and have been referred to as the underground Brokers as part of the ensuing Skirmish tralala and smoker team up to take on vice admiral Vergo in an incredibly hard for battle however the Duo eventually overcome him and Fogo is left in a state of Separation thanks to Law's abilities as as this is going on Luffy is gunning towards Caesar to defeat and capture him although along the way he discovers a child by the name of mos who appears to have eaten an artificial devil fruit not created by Caesar though instead it was crafted by

the legendary Dr Vega Punk and it has the effect of turning MOS into a small Eastern Dragon although the young boy is Not capable of controlling his abilities very well at this point in the story The most important thing about MOS though is that he is a comrade of the puzzle Samurai kinamon a Duo whose mystery on P kazad would be unraveled over the course of many many arcs in any case Luffy does eventually find and defeat Caesar with the other Allied Forces proving victorious in their individual Endeavors as well one other notable conflict is

that Zoro and tashiki teamed up to Defeat Monae the user of a snow type low gear fruit Chaos on to the island himself after the victory of the Allied Forces though a short break sln party occurs in which L reveals the next stage of his plan which is to visit green bit an island territory connected to that of dress Rosa the island that DOL Flamingo currently rules as a king and after discovering that lur and the straw hats are headed to dress Rosa kinamon Expresses his desire to visit the island as well because he has

mysterious business there and so kinamon and Mos join the fun and the alliance sails away from Punk Hazard with CES a clown in Chains this leaves smoker and the G5 Marines on the island who are shortly after confronted by the the arrival of damingo who attempts to kill smoker but is ultimately stopped by the very well-timed arrival of another figure being former Marine Admiral aliji who Now is just known by his real name Kuan in any case not wanting to face off against Kuan DOL Flamingo smugly Retreats back to his kingdom while kuzan and smoker

then have a little chat now at this point it should be stated that kuzan has resigned from the Marines after battling sakazuki for the position of Fleet Admiral a 10-day Affair that actually took place on Punk Hazard and is the reason why the entire Island's climate has been irrevocably morphed Into a half fire half ice Pokéball style Island and so at the moment Kuan is acting as more of a rogue agent of Justice although there are allegedly some terrible rumors surrounding his actions and current Associates more delicious delicious mystery but Kuan still retains an incredible

degree of trust in smoker and even requests that smoker does not report his presence to the Marines at large and now on route to dress Rosa with the leverage of Caesar Clown law calls DOL Flamingo and issues him with an ultimatum and that he will hand Caesar over in exchange for do Flamingo resigning his position as a wallard of the sea which do Flo does agree to and a hostage exchange is arranged on the territory of green bit this opportunity is also taken to introduce us to the current makeup of the seven Warlords of the

sea which does include some familiar faces being dra mihawk Bo hanok barthol Muma and DOL Flamingo of course and in addition to this there are two new Warlords mentioned being tralor and buggy the clown who was invited to the organization after his actions during marineford but there is one seventh final member who we are keeping a mystery for now so so many Mysteries happening here but furthermore elsewhere in the world it is announced not only have Luffy and law formed an alliance but another cohort of the worst Generation have done the exact same being used

to scar scratch manipu and basil Hawkins and I guess by default you can also include Massacre Soldier killer in this Alliance because he is a direct subordinate of kid and this Alliance was also created with the intention of bringing down one of the four Emperors although that Emperor is unknown at this point in the story but despite the seemingly amicable agreement between DOL Flamingo and law both parties are Planning all sorts of fun betrayal as law charges a section of the straw hats with finding and destroying the smile Factory on dress Rosa whilst he exchanges

just Hees a clown on green bit and in the meantime DOL Flamingo also has roughly a billion tricks up his sleeve including invoking his influence on the world government to have a brand new Marine Admiral sent to the island in order to assist him and in addition to that DOL Flamingo also has a plan to low Luffy into a trap as he has organized a tournament in the Cora Coliseum with the Ultimate Prize being the Maramar Nomi a devil fruit once owned by Luffy's now pasted brother podcast D and with that the stage is now

set for one of the most complex and chaotic events to ever take place in the series as the crew land on the island of love passion and toys dress Rosa hello and welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything one Piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today it's time we continue one of the most ambitious sagas ever constructed that is dress Rosa the dress Rosa Saga is the eth in the series consisting of

two arcs but in absolutely Mega 148 chapters which does make it the longest Saga we have covered to date and hence why we need this whole part two business Because we have a lot to cover here today where we last left off the straw hat trala law Alliance had been split into three groups one of which was tasked with infiltrating dress Rosa to destroy the smile Factory led by Luffy whilst another headed to Green bit to exchange the the clown as a hostage led by law and a faction to protect the Thousand Sunny led by

no one in particular but was armi because she usually ends up being in charge so a Couple of things here with Luffy's group they almost immediately encounter a marine Admiral although they don't know it as he is currently passing himself off as a run-of mill blind Gambler although things do get somewhat serious when Luffy informs him that he is being cheated and he buries the game Masters in an awfully deep hole in any case this man is later revealed to be Marine Admiral fujitora who wields a particularly powerful paramia fruit Known as the Zushi Zushi

numi which allows him to control gravity to varying degrees following this Luffy discovers that there is a tournament being conducted nearby in the carda Coliseum the prize of which is the maram maromi a devil fruit once used by his brother and so Luffy takes DOL flamingo's bait and enters the tournament under the brilliant Alias of Lucy and here Lucy meets a whole cast of characters who will go on to become wild important During the S one of which we will specifically zero in on being Cavendish a pirate who holds a supreme hatred for every member

of the worst generation and who is hellbent on killing them which yes does include Luffy at this stage and another one of note would be bomeo who is the exact opposite as he worships Luffy and the straw hats like a deranged Fanboy a lovable deranged Fanboy though we were also introduced to a figure named Ricky who is not touted to be Anything important but who would turn out to be King rku doldo III the former king of Dres Rosa who a decade ago had his Island commandeered by the current King DOL flamingo who used his

string devil fruit abilities to force Ru to sort his own people and to sway public opinion away from the rku family to say the least allowing dolingo to take control of the island and I would also be remiss not to single out Rebecca a fairly at this point mysterious Gladiator who is fighting to win the maram mar me in order to use it to kill DOL Flamingo oh and rather interestingly dress Rosa also sees the return of Bellamy the opponent who Luffy one shot back in the sky Pia ARA who still works for D Flamingo

but who has matured beyond all belief and who now holds a huge degree of respect for Luffy and the tournament breaks down as follows essentially all of the fighters are grouped into four blocks a b c and d the Members of these blocks then all thrown into the arena at the same time and a battle royale is conducted until only one fighter remains standing and getting into things the winner of block a would be rather surprisingly Jesus Burgess member of the Blackbeard Pirates Who was masquerading as a character named happy store but the fact that

the Blackbeard Pirates have any presence on dress Rosa whatsoever imbus the ark with a whole new layer of sinister feelings and Luffy Even briefly spoke to Blackbeard forend and mushy and declared that he would not allow them to take Ace's devil fruit moving to block b and this was quite a chaotic Affair featuring a newly almost heroic Bellamy and a man whose punch was rumored to be able to take down one of the four Emperors neither one of them would win though as in the end the ultimate troll bartomeo proved Victorious due to his Barry

barin numi abilities despite stopping midc combat To take a piss to the main event we now look to Block C which came down to a fierce battle between monkey du Luffy and Don chinou a veteran pirate who held a grudge against Luffy's grandfather gar although Not only was Luffy able to defeat him but he also incidentally fixed chou's head causing the veteran pirate to pledge his loyalty to Luffy which will become a common feature during The Saga and as for Block D the eventual winner would be Rebecca after Cavendish revealed his split personality hakaba who

proceeded to wreck every other contestant by Rebecca and then promptly fell asleep resulting in one final battle royale consisting of Jesus Burgess bartomeo Lucy Rebecca and the champion of the Coliseum Diamante who was one of DOL flamingo's most trusted officers however Luffy would not actually fight in this match as prior to its commencement he received the shock of a life time when Sabo a childhood Brother of Luffy thought to be long dead revealed himself and requested permission to consume Ace's devil fruit which Luffy gave gladly and just in time to exit the Coliseum and begin

to deal with the true meat of dress Rosa because while these events were occurring there was no shortage of shenanigan re elsewhere asanji had found himself in a precarious position with Viola a member of The donot Pirates Who fooled him with her feminine WS but of course it is Later revealed that Viola is a princess of the former monarchy the rku family and despite her villainous actions thus far was all for bringing down do flamingo and so Viola would also go on to inform Sanji that his crew was in imminent danger at the same time

Frankie was exploring the island and ended up making friends with a toy soldier who would reveal a seedy underbelly of dress Rosa as it turned out that there was a member of DOL flamingo's crew named Sugar who had the ability to turn living beings into toys as well as to go on to enslave them and this toy soldier himself had been a victim of sugar and while he was human he was named curos formerly known as the Invincible Gladiator as well as the commander of the rku royal Army and perhaps most importantly of all the

father of Coliseum Gladiator Rebecca meanwhile the sunny Protection Team were being assaulted by a member of the donot Pirates named Dora who turned everyone into Splendid Modern Art but was promptly defeated by the very quick thinking of an underrated Straw Hat member by the name of Brooke and things had not gone to plan for the Caesar exchange team either on green bit as by this time both Robin and Usopp had been captured SL stumbled into the territory of the tonata tribe a group of very gullible dwarves who as with many factions in and around Dr

Rosa were Planning to mount an assault on the current King doflamingo and in their case this was because he had enslaved a huge portion of their tribe for the purposes of creating artificial devil fruits in the smile Factory but here Usopp did what Usopp does best and he ended up lying about being some legendary hero and he became known by the tont tribe as usoland and was subsequently charged with leading their assault on do Flamingo that's all right Though I'm sure Usopp can handle it although if he can't then luckily the tonata tribe would eventually

liaz with the toy soldier as well as Frankie in order to discuss their impending assault also on green bit L's plan to exchange Caesar had rapidly gone downhill as he found himself in a two-on-one battle against not only do Flamingo but also Marine Admiral Fuji Torah and it's safe to say that L was not expecting to deal with an admiral due to the fact that Part of his bargain was to have do Flamingo resigned from the seven Warlords and thus caught all ties with the world government unfortunately for law this turned out to be but

a clever ruse by do Flamingo who had used his mysterious leverage over the world government to publish his resignation and then have it revoked with the people of dress Rosa being informed of this by CP zero the stronger cell of Cipher agents who work directly for the world Nobles and in the case of Fuji Torah well he was sent specifically to to deal with tral Galore as well as Monkey D Luffy but in a last ditch effort L was able to make sure that DOL Flamingo did not reclaim Caesar with him ending up back on

the Thousand Sunny along with Sanji who briefly took on DOL Flamingo directly however in this dire dire situation the decision was made to have the sunny Protection Team now including Sanji immediately move on to the next Island of Zo however this was much easier said than done because at this very moment the flagship of the big mom Pirates the queen Mama chant appeared who in addition to being incredibly hostile to the straw hats also had a vested interest in capturing Caesar CL clown really is kind of amazing the efforts that all of these individuals would

go to in order to secure a single clown boy but faced with a faction of the four Emperors Sanji made the simple Request to Luffy over aend and mushy which was permission to strike back which Luffy instantly gave because well he had already declared war on big mom back on fisherman Island now as for everyone else on the island which at this stage consisted of Luffy zorao Robin Frankie usop law and ginon who we haven't spoken about much yet but he's also there in any case this group would make the decision to remain on dress

Rosa to complete their mission of Destroying the SM Factory and more importantly to defeat DOL Flamingo and once again this was much easier said than done especially when Zoro and kinamon were confronted directly by both DOL Flamingo and fujit Tor the latter proving to briefly overwhelm Zoro with his gravity related abilities as such Zoro and kinan made a hasty Retreat as fujit Tor and do Flamingo made their way to the country's palace with a Gravely wounded tral Galore in tow upon reaching The palace though fujit Tor made it very clear that his actions on the

island were only being conducted as a result of his direct orders and he warned DOL Flamingo not to consider him an ally fuj then stated that his ultimate ambition was to make sure that the seven warlord system would be abolished by the world government which of course included do Flamingo status and having said all of this to a very volatile madman this led to a violent clash between fujitora and Doflamingo but the action did not proceed from there in any case our group of protagonists all had one clear Mission now with Luffy Zoro and kinamon

gunning straight towards the palace to deal with do Flamingo whilst Frankie was to act as a rather loud diversion for the donot Pirates whilst Usopp Robin and a host of the tonata tribe members infiltrated dress Rose's Underground Port with the goal of bringing down sugar as with her devil for Powers the Allied Forces would stand no chance in this Mission and just on sugar for a bit her abilities were put to predictably Sinister use in regards to the ca Coliseum as every fighter wounded and admitted to medical treatment was subsequently turned into a toy by

sugar and then put to work as slaves in the underground port and so when Usopp and Robin marched in with no joke the fate of the entire Island on their shoulders not only were they unfortunately met by Sugar but also treble another one of DOL flingo's most trusted officers and this Duo succeeded in defeating everyone except for Usopp who was forced to admit the reality that he was no legendary hero however instead he made a new claim that from today onwards he would become the tonata trib's legendary hero proceeding to take on both sugar and

treble heroically and promptly losing however in one of the most incredible twists of fate in the entire series suar Would end up feeding Uso the weapon designed to bring her down which resulted in what can only be described as this face which terrified sugar and knocked her out and at this very moment the tide of the dress Rosa Saga rapidly they shifted as every single being that had been turned into a toy be they a citizen of the country or a Coliseum fighter was reverted back to their original form and they were pretty pissed off

to say the least as they Decided that the straw hat Pirates had been their saviors and on mass marched on DOL Flamingo which would be the Catalyst for one of the largest and most chaotic battles that we have ever seen in the series hello and welcome to the ground Line review your source for everything one piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today it Is time to finally conclude the mighty Endeavor that is the dress Rosa Saga

the dress Rosa Saga as stated multiple times now is the eighth in the series consisting of two arcs but in absolutely Mega 148 chapters which contains a ridiculously jam-packed story with a massive cost of characters that we will be attempting to wrap up here today and last time we ended with the defeat of sugar an officer of the donot Pirates whose dismissal resulted in everyone who Had been turned into a toy regaining their original forms and focusing their rage on one man the current King of the island donot do Flamingo and the first shot in

this endeavor would be taken by curos a former toy soldier who upon regaining his human body leapt into action and decapitated doflamingo thus ending the entire Saga and actually no it turned out to be a string clone because that's just a thing that DOL Flamingo can do with his devil fruit Which is insane first of many many insane things actually because sensing this unprecedented danger to his position doof Flamingo chose to activate a technique known as The Bird Cage whereby he entrapped the entire Island in a cage of razor sharp strings which would slowly encroach

on the land threatening to kill everyone caught within it and with that we are now on a clock to defeat the wallard of the sea but that would be further Complicated by The fact that DOL Flamingo decided to broadcast a bounty system in order to hinder the uprising on dress Rosa assigning various figures the star rating with each star being worth 100 million berries to anyone who was able to capture the individual in question so with this in mind both Luffy and L who was now freed from the grasp of DOL Flamingo were worth three

stars each but rather surprisingly the most valuable figure would turn turn out to be God Uso Whom DOL Flamingo assumed a mighty five stars due to him being the reason why all of the toys reverted so this hinders effort somewhat as the full force of the dony Pirates as well as many civilians of dress Rosa and some miscellaneous bounty hunters Now set their sights on the prize in front of them oh and I should also say that he offered a three- star rating to Sabo who after competing in the finals of the carda Coliseum was

successfully able to acquire the maram Maromi but in addition to this it is also revealed that Sabo is a high ranking member of the Revolutionary Army and is here to investigate DOL flamingo's Black Market practice IES and shortly after Sabo would come into conflict with Admiral fujit Tor which prevented the Marine from hunting down Luffy and L and with his new abilities Sabo was also able to fight fujit Tor into an effective stalemate at which point fujit Tor had a change of heart And decided to bet on DOL Flamingo being taken down by Luffy then

turning his attention to saving as many civilians as possible from the indiscriminate Wrath of DOL Flamingo now during this time we take the opportunity to zero in on one tral Galore the man responsible for bringing Luffy and the straw hats into this situation under the guise of defeating one of the four emperors in reality that was but a clever ruse and Law's plan never extended this far and In fact this whole Endeavor was crafted in order to use Luffy to help L exact personal revenge against do Flamingo because as it turns out he and La

well they have quite a history as a child La after a horrific childhood in which he was stricken with ambered syndrome as well as a genocide conducted upon his homeland would end up finding his way to a younger incarnation of the donot Pirates and specifically developing a relationship with DOL flamingo's brother Rosinante and we also go another layer deep into this flashback briefly focusing on DOL flamingo and how he was once a world Noble until his father took his family to live with the masses which was a predictably tragic move and one day a child

do Flamingo felt so bitter that he murdered his own father now his brother rosinante would take a different path by becoming an agent of the Marines and then going on to infiltrate the donot Pirates on their behalf but Everything would change one day when rosante overheard LA's real name which was Trafalga D water law and knowing that there would be no mercy whatsoever if DOL Flamingo were to discover this name rosinante fled the crew with Laur in hand and traveled far and wide to find a doctor who could cure L's Affliction all to no avail

though until an opportunity to Source a certain devil fruit came up being the op opoi now DOL Flamingo was on the hunt for this rout Because it was fabled to allow its user to make others somewhat Immortal well not Immortal but more accurately perpetually youthful which was something that very much interested Mr Flamingo and in a series of more tragic events Ros an's identity as a marine would be uncovered and DOL Flamingo would go on to murder him with the exact same gun that he had used on their father however this was not before Ros

and anante acquired the opop and fed it to law Which allowed him to cure his uled syndrome and grow up into the figure that he is today hell bent on destroying DOL Flamingo for what he did to rante so back to the m day now and the current developments are not going in do flamingo's favor as his crew were being systematically dismantled by the small army marching upon him several key Coliseum Fighters were able to take down prominent officers and straw hat member Frankie rounded this out by defeating Seor pink in what can only be

described as a true battle between manly men things at this point this left only DOL Flamingo and his top officer remaining the first of which to go down would be Diamante who was defeated by curos in an act of Retribution as Diamante was responsible for murdering curro's wife and Rebecca's mother Scarlet also Scarlet was the daughter of former King rku thus making Rebecca royalty of the rku dynasty next up P would be Dismantled quite literally by the efforts of straw hat swordsman Zoro who chopped and chopped and chopped until P was forced to face off

against Zoro directly which definitely did not work in his favorit all and finally tror would come to kind of defeat himself actually after a poorly thought out explosion technique designed to kill law but it pretty much just ended up knocking treble out himself during this time we also had a brief rematch of Luffy versus Bellamy which ended in just as one-sided a result as it did the first time around except this time it was much more heartfelt because Bellamy had resigned himself to having pledged his loyalty to doflamingo but was also more than happy to

be brought down by the only other man in the world that he respected being Luffy now despite putting up a grand effort against do Flamingo including severely damaging his internal organs tral Galore still fairly Gravely injured himself mind you would be taken out of action leaving only two combatants on this dramatic stage being Luffy and do Flamingo now that isn't to say that everyone else was just standing about doing nothing because after repelling seor pink Frankie and the tonata forces finally reached SM Factory where they freed the enslaved tribe including princess maner in the ensuing

chaos kinamon also very notably found the samurai he was hunting for on the Island being kro another nice piece in the samurai mystery puzzle that would not be answered in The Saga however both kinamon and kro would go on to contribute to the defense of dress Rosa by attempting to stop the bird cage from encroaching further alongside Zoro and this effort would be joined from all sides by various factions one of which would be the Coliseum fighters who all push back against the bird cage thanks to a large barrier created by B mayor And Frankie

and his faction were also able to use the sea Stone SM Factory as a barrier for them to attempt to stop the bird cage and finally Marine Admiral fujit Tor would even join this effort with the combination of everyone managing to Halt the cage very briefly but very importantly cutting back to the main action Luffy would now reveal a new form to take on DOL Flamingo being gear forth bound man a transformation that outclassed DOL flamingo in both speed And power Al though it was unable to deliver the final blow before Luffy ran out of

time and was forced to accept the assistance of the civilians of dress Rosa to buy him enough time to regain his usus ofi to use the form once more in addition to this Sabo also hopped into action once more in order to prevent Jesus Burgess of the Blackbeard pirates from killing Luffy a fight that Sabo would go on to convincingly win But Here we are now cutting it very very Close to everyone's demise at this point however Luffy thanks to the efforts of almost literally everyone on the island was given just enough time to invoke

gear forth once more and finally defeat DOL flamingo with an incredible King Kong gun shattering both the glasses and the global standing of the warlord dispelling the bird cage and saving the entire Kingdom following this Admiral Fuji Tor would issue a formal apology to King rku who was reinstated as the Monarch of the nation along with Viola and Rebecca regaining their place's royalty and at this time sabo's investigation on behalf of the Revolutionary Army would conclude and after making a Vivia card fuffy he left along with his forces now elsewhere in the world big big

things were happening specifically in regards to the other Alliance comprised of worst generation members who had found themselves all of a sudden under attack by a profound World figure this man nay this creature had found their Base by jumping off a sky island and Landing 10,000 M onto the hard ground and after emerging with nothing but a light headache he was introduced as 100 Beast kaido one of the four Emperors and being known as the strongest creature alive which sent our very unfortunate worst generation members into a slight Panic to say the least now also

by this time the Sanji Leed faction of the straw hats had made It safely to zo although zo itself was proving to be less than safe with a contingent of the Beast Pirates kido's crew they're allegedly searching for a certain Samurai there is that word again Samurai the search was not going well though as they went on to be dispatched by Sanji and Brook back to dress rosan now and Luffy and the crew would be forced to flee soon enough although in doing so he was faced with a rather large blockade in the form of

fujit Tor Whom Luffy engaged in combat with only to be interrupted by the citizens of dress Rosa who under the guise of shouting angrily at Luffy actually strategically position themselves on the battlefield preventing fujit Tor from invoking his gravity powers and fujit tor then had no choice but to acques developing quite a liking for Luffy and even regretting the fact that he had blinded himself as he now had a profound desire to look at Luffy with his own Eyes now usually the escape from the island is where things might end but no because something very

very fascinating had occurred during Luffy's recovery period which was that a force of individuals had banded together and pledged their loyalty to Luffy proposing to become his underlings and these individuals included Cavendish captain of the beautiful Pirates Who after being saved from his toy Fate by Usopp no longer held any ill will towards Luffy As as well as bartomeo our resident Fanboy and captain of the BTO Club in addition to them though there was Sai commander of the hoo Navy EO who led the newly formed Ado Pirates the tonata Pirates helmed by Leo a giant

that Luffy had actually defeated in the C Coliseum named haradin who himself was in charge of a small cohort of Giants and finally olumbus who was in command of the yont Maria Grand Fleet which bed a crew totaling roughly 4,300 members and all Of these figures had come to decide amongst themselves that they would follow Luffy to which Luffy swiftly rejected this idea in the name of freedom and well just not wanting to do it which only endeared him further to this band who went on to form their own Association anyway which is now known

as the straw hat Grand Fleet furthermore even Bellamy became something of an ally because while he didn't join the grand Fleet he did take a piece of Luffy's Vivia card and would go on to retire from piracy instead becoming an apprentice D and using his newly acquired skills to create a Jolly Roger assumably for the grand Fleet and with that matter settled the grand Fleet went their separate ways with Luffy and the straw hats coming aboard B ship the going Luffy Senpai in order for them to Journey to the island island of Zo to meet

up with the other half of their crew who were currently facing all sorts Of issues but that is a story for the next Saga hello and welcome to the ground Line review your source for everything one piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we are on the verge of catching up with modern events as we step into the latest and what is sure to be the longest Saga in the entire series being The yonos Saga

The yonos Saga is the ninth in the series which currently consists of four arcs one of which is still ongoing at the time of this recording being wano and so I am unable to give you an accurate assessment of chapters and episodes at this point anyway however currently it is startlingly approaching the 200 chapter Mark so we are quite possibly looking at the longest and most Earth shaking Saga in the series thus far and diving into Things immediately following the events of dress Rosa one faction of the straw hats are fed to the island of

Zo to meet up with the rest of their crew only to discover that the quote unquote island is actually a gigantic elephant that houses an entire civilization on top of it and after scaling the elephant the straw hats are met with one of the most beautiful landscapes ever featured in the series as well as swiftly encounter The Mink tribe the species of humanoid Mammals who are native to zo and after a somewhat shaky start it is revealed that the straw hats are considered something of a heroic Presence by the minks which has to do with

the actions of the other half of their crew who during the events of dress Rosa had arrived on the island led by Sanji only to discover zo and its citizens on the verge of death following a grand battle now this is because very recently A Man by the name of Jack a key member of the Beast Pirates Who are Captained by none other than emperor of the sea kaido who just deci Side by for a second you may remember as the man who Luffy and law initially formed an alliance to take down in any case

Jack was charged with hunting down a ninja from the land of wano by the name of Riso now Riso is a comrade of kinamon mos and condro an assortment of very strange individuals that we have been collecting over the last few arcs with their ultimate purpose to become clear Shortly however the minks vehemently denied that Riso was on the island and a battle lasting 5 days and nights would commence with Jack and his forces engaging in brutal combat with the mink tribe led by Juke inashi during the day and master nek she at night but

after 5 days both sides found themselves within a stalemate and so Jack resorted to using a chemical weapon which interestingly enough was actually developed by Caesar Clown and it pretty Much instantaneously resulted in the resounding defeat of the mink tribe but before he could cause too much damage Jack received word that donot DOL Flamingo had been defeated on dress Rosa by Monkey D Luffy and that was important to say the least because DOL Flamingo was responsible for trafficking weapons and artificial devil fruits and so Jack set off to reclaim DOL Flamingo from the Marines at

which point he was met in battle by now Inspector General s Admiral fujit Tor and vice admiral suru which resulted in Jack's reported death spoil as though he did not die and so the Sanji faction of the straw hats arrived after this and given that they just so happened to have Caesar Clown with them as a prisoner they forced him to develop a cure for his own chemical weapon and thus saved the entirety of the mink tribe our problems most certainly do not end there though because with the exit of one emperor of The sea

another came to take their place with peoms and Kong gang be arriving on the island in the name of big mom and this team was charged with the task of abducting Sanji of all people which was was quite the surprise with the plan being to forcibly have him marry one of big mom's daughters known as Charlotte pudding now this is because Sanji has a ton of history that we were not aware of up until now and is in fact a former Prince of the ger Kingdom led by his Father Vince smoke judge who offered Sanji

up to form an alliance with the big mom Pirates more on that later though and while we're here beige also took Caesar as well because unfortunately for this clown big mom just so happens to have business with him as well oh and finally beige also ended up betraying peoms by shooting him in the back because beige is very sneaky and he has some plans of his own to implement boms would of course recover Onzo which was his home Island as he himself is a mink and the straw hats would eventually come to be reunited Sans

Sanji now after ginon and kro eventually made it up the elephant because they encountered a how shall we put this a series of misfortunes The Mink tribe then revealed that Riso is indeed on the island and that he is safe meaning that each and every one of them endured harsh torture and potential death just to keep this ninja hidden and When we are taken to se Riso not only do we encounter the strangest wano citizen yet but also a very funky red pag known as a road poneglyph one of only four in the world which

when combined will reveal the location of the legendary Island RAF at this point we also finally get to understand why we've been collecting these weird one people because their country had been taken over by kaido and they are searching for allies to help them bring him down which Luffy does eventually agree to do along with tragal and The Mink tribe and as such the ninja pirate mink Samurai Alliance was born but immediately after this Alive and Well Jack would attempt to return to zo only to be promptly struck down by the trunk of zunisha in

one of the most glorious pieces of action within one piece but we aren't headed to wano just yet because we still have a little bit of a Sanji problem to solve which sees Luffy Nami Brook and Chopper deciding to Embark into the territory of big mom in order to reclaim him and on this trip they are also going to be taking poms a member of the big mom Pirates to guide them which also results in a mink by the name of Pedro coming along in order to keep poms in line oh in very very sneakily

another mink named carrot snuck aboard Thousand Sunny and only made her presence known after they had departed and so the Sanji retrieval team said their goodbyes to The Dress a straw hat faction and they promis to meet up again on wano to implement their plan to take down kaider which leads us into the next AR on their way to H kland the home territory of big mom situated within the greater Empire of totland our retrieval team encounter a ship transporting two members of the Vince smoke family being Vince smoke yongji and Vince smok Ru sanji's

younger brother and older sister respectively Ru then uses her abilities to save Luffy's Life after he poisoned himself with his own cooking because Luffy and yonji very predictably fell immediately in love with nami and the two vessels imparted ways the Thousand Sunny does then go on to enter totaland disembarking firstly on kaca island where they actually meet the goal in question Charlotte puding the woman whom Sanji is forcibly betrothed to and she seems like quite a nice lady to be honest even going so far as to give the straw Huns a super Special secret route

to take into hake Island which they do end up using although it lands them squarely in the territory of the seducing Woods where the team are assailed by Charlotte Brule and charlot cracker and this is where things would split with chopper and carrot being caught in Bru's mirror world peoms having been captured earlier by Capone gang be while Brooke and Pedro went off in search of big mom's Road poneglyph leaving only Luffy and Nami to Face Off directly against cracker one of big mom's sweet commanders and thus one of the most powerful combatants of the

entire crew however the combination of Luffy and Nami would prove Superior to this and after 11 hours of fighting cracker Was Defeated which prompted the big mom Pirates to muster a supreme Force to march on Luffy in the meantime Sanji was having something of a family reunion which was rapidly becoming violent when he engaged in combat with Two of his brothers and his father and here we also begin to learn more about sanji's history as the rest of his siblings are genetically modified superhumans with Sanji being the only child who was born quote unquote normal

due to the self-sacrificial actions of his late mother Sora this disappointed judge greatly who would eventually imprison and even fake the death of Sanji and one day allow him to be free in East blue on the condition that he Would never ever reveal his lineage not that Sanji would even want to and this time period also properly introduced us to Charlotte linlin aka Big mom who was quickly portrayed as quite possibly the strongest human on the planet with the bit of a tendency for hunger pangs that on one occasion was quelled by jinbe who was

on the island to sever his Allegiance with the Big M pirates in order to properly accept Luffy's invitation to join the straw hats now Luffy and armi after their vicious battle with Kracker would then encounter Sanji with his family however the chef refused to return to the crew as he was still being blackmailed with zeff's life even going so far as to escalate this matter to a full-on fight with Luffy and in a particularly heartbreaking scene a very tired Luffy Was Defeated although Luffy being Luffy he then made a very stubborn decision and boldly declared

that he would not eat anything until Sanji returned to the crew after which Luffy and Nami were assailed by a small army led by Charlotte mour who captured and imprisoned them in hake chatau some good news though was Chopper and carrot had managed to overpower their captiv in the mirror world and forced Brule into assisting them which would prove absolutely integral to the remainder of the Ark more very bad news though as Brooke with the assistant of Pedro had managed to find his way into big mom's Poneglyph collection which TS three of the stones including

the much needed road poneglyph now under normal circumstances this would be just super however big arrived to put a halt to Brook's actions which resulted in Brooke engaging in one-on-one combat with an emperor of the sea and then promptly getting destroyed and becoming captured himself more good news though because Luffy and army would go to be freed by jinbe a very very welcome sight to these Two straw hats but stubbor Luffy being stubborn decided to head back to the spot where he told Sanji he would wait and not eat whilst Nami and jinbe joined Chopper

and carrot in the mirror world where they ultimately freed Brooke thanks to using Brule's mirror powers to find him and furthermore after rejoining the crew Brooke opened up his usually empty skull and revealed that he had managed to take rubbings of all three poneglyphs thus submitting Brooke as a Supreme candidate for MVP of hokk kland cutting back to Sanji now though things aren't exactly looking up for him as just as he had accepted his fate of marrying pudding he just so happens to discover that she is in fact evil and spearheading a plot to murder

Sanji as well as the rest of the Vince smoke family at their own wedding ceremony no less and the reasoning is so that big mom can take control of all of the advanced technology of the drama Kingdom Which is questionable because how would she know how to use any of it but whatever it's fine and even though son I is still technically under the conditions of blackmail he then makes the decision to rejoin Luffy who is waiting for him in the promised spot and after a tearful reunion the captain and the chef once again join

forces now in theory this is the point where we've actually accomplished everything we came here to do we have the pon glyph Rubbings and we have Sanji but things aren't quite that simple though because the life of zeep is still being threatened and even though Sanji thoroughly despises his family he realize that he could not bring himself to abandon them to their fate and so luy suggests that they crash the wedding and in order to to achieve this Jin Bay has something of a cunning plan involving a figure who has popped up a fair bit

at this point being Capone gang bee and in Case you've forgotten beige is a member of the worst generation just like Luffy and law and as it turns out beige has his own Grand Ambitions on hake Island and all this time he has been plotting to assassinate big mom so of course jinbe suggests they go and meet with beige to form an alliance and so with 3 and 1 half hours until the wedding ceremony is set to begin the two faction secretly gather to discuss how they're going to topple big mom's entire Empire Hello and

welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything one piece and more specifically sagas in minutes the series that aims to equip you with the basic knowledge to LEAP Into the Wilderness of one piece and today we are on the verge of catching up with modern events as we step into what is the latest and what is sure to be the longest Saga in the series being the Yos Saga the Yos Saga is the ninth in the series which consists of four arcs one Of which is sadly incomplete at the time of this recording

and rather unfortunately that means that this is more than likely going to be our final episode of saga the minutes until the wok has reached completion so that's a bit Bittersweet but the good news is that once you finish this video then you will be very well equipped to jump into modern one piece so let's begin where we last left off the hul island faction of the straw hats were about to meet with a Member of the worst generation being Capone gang be to discuss the possibility of forming an alliance to take down big mom

at the Tea Party scheduled to start in 3 hours and at this point a new player enters the frey stylish Devil by the name of gangster gastino who is immediately recognized as Hees a clown in a very poor disguise and sees is here because he's been a naughty naughty boy and embezzled research funds from big mom and is now desperately Trying to save his own life from the inevitable Wrath of an emperor and while things definitely get off to a bit of a rough start eventually Luffy Capone and Caesar settle on working together and the

plan to bring down big mom begins which now takes us to the Tea Party during which Sanji was scheduled to be married to Charlotte pudding and all sorts of fancy guests arrive but most importantly we are introduced to Charlotte kakuri who is by far the most Powerful member of the big mom Pirates apart from Charlotte ly and her self and furthermore he is shown to have the absolutely insane ability to peer briefly into the future via observation hary now as the guests mingle at the Tea Party a curious photo was placed on big Mom's table

containing the image of a woman named mother carel and she was something of a mentor figure for big mom as when she was 5 years old Lyin was abandoned on the island of elbar where She was then taken in to caramel's orphanage now crazily enough even at this age Lyin was capable of Earth shattering power as well as her monstrous hunger pangs which one day culminated in linlin accidentally killing an elder Giant Giant Warrior resulting in the Exile of the orphanage from Elbo but sadly that would be far from the end of this particular tragedy

as in a state of food and Juice Storia linlin would not only eat mother carel But all of the children in the orphanage so yeah that's kind of sad but one silver lining is that carel just so happened to be a child trafficker Who Sold her orphans so I guess we'll call it even and of course lenland has no memory of this although as a result of eating caramel lenland would acquire her devil fruit ability the soru know me but back to the modern day this photo formed the Crux of the plans for the forces

who were intending on smashing it right in Front of big mom and having her assume a state of uncontrollable rage during which point she would be vulnerable for an attack in theory but how do we get to this point well primarily via cake as just before Sanji could be assassinated at his own wedding out popped to many many Luffy which sent the ceremony into chaos during which time jinbe took the opportunity to officially end his affiliation with the Big M Pirates and declared his intent to join the straws To which Luffy was absolutely delighted but

all of this madness allowed Brooke the chance to smashed the photo of Carl and resulted in a state of profound rage and despair for big mom just as planned what was not planned though is that not even this was enough to render big mom vulnerable and the alliance was forced into a swift Retreat during this time Luffy being Luffy as usual insisted on taunting big mom further by stating that he was going to defeat kaido and then Return to Hulk Island in order to deal with her and finally to top everything off he stated that

he would become the pirate king and the two briefly clashed causing an immense shock wave across the entire it of hul cake chatau speaking of the chatau though due to a complex series of events that is more trouble to cover than it's worth a large explosion would occur compromising the Integrity of the building and causing it to collapse although at the last second it Was turned into cake by a member of the big mom Pirates thus saving all of their lives as for the various factions who had made enemies of the big mom Pirates they

now went their separate ways and we were left following the straw hats as they raced to the Thousand Sunny with an enraged big mom in Hot Pursuit the bigger problem facing everyone in the vicinity at the moment though was the destruction of of the wedding cake as big mom had now entered a hunger tantrum Demanding wedding cake and as such this prompted pudding to ask Sanji for assistance in creating a replacement cake to save the lives of everyone on totaland as the original Chef had been injured and Sanji given his pride and Mission as a

chef agreed to do this and thus began a Race Against Time weighing the destruction of totland against the baking of a gigantic delicious cake upon reaching the Thousand Sunny the straw hunts discovered Charlotte caku L and Wait for them at which point Luffy forced cury into Brule's mirror world and very boldly claimed that he would defeat him but the remaining straw hats were far from out of trouble as a Thousand Sunny was frozen in candy thanks to the abilities of one Charlotte peris Pera which saw Pedro make the ultimate sacrifice and use his life to

set the sunny free as well as significantly damage peris Pera rest in peace you magnificent mink with the big Mom pirates still in pursuit of the straw hats a long drawn out battle would play out between Luffy and kakuri in which kakuri proved superior to the straw hat captain in every regard imaginable even possessing a very similar devil fruit however Luffy refused to give up and eventually discovered the secret to kaku's power being future sight and he decided that he would continue to face off against kakuri until he learned the technique as Well which slowly

very very slowly but surely he did on kaku's side of the battle though what we would see would be a complete mental breakdown of a being who strived for Perfection being consistently proven that he was not in any way perfect and gradually being overcome by the flawed existence that was Luffy through this change in mentality Luffy would also come to own kaku's respect and the two would culminate this fight in one of the most Brutal clashes ever showcased in one piece by the end of which kakuri had been completely converted to Luffy sheer belief in

himself and he saw no reason to fight any further thus collapsing in defeat at this stage Luffy was also in a bit of a precarious position but luckily peoms emerged in a poor disguise to remove him from the mirror world and he even invoked his suong form to allow Luffy to escape properly assisted by Sanji at this point the cake had been Well and truly baked and fed Far Away by Capone gang beige and actually big mom did eventually reach and consume it thus slating her hunger panks before launching back into action to assert revenge

on those who had invaded her territory so sadly things were looking quite dire for the straw hats even with Luffy and Sanji safely aboard the sunny however they did still have allies in the form of the sun Pirates being jinbe's now former crew as well as a Surprise addition of the German dou 6 who had vowed to take revenge on big mom for their attempted murder in addition to this despite the fact that jinbe had joined the straw hats he would go on to beg Luffy for permission to remain behind and assist his crew unable

to bear the thought of leaving them to die Luffy did Grant this permission however he gave jinbe a very strict order to meet up with them on wo and through these combined actions the straw hats Were allowed to escape however jinbe the sun Pirates and the germa were left to an unknown fate as a fully recovered big mom arrived to confront them thus bringing a sudden end to the whole cake Island AR elsewhere in the world though an event known as the Ry was taking place which saw a gathering of various World figures at the

holy land of marijua for a 7-Day conference in order to discuss the future of the world during this time many many familiar Figures made a return to the story including Princess shirahoshi and the ryuku family from Fishman Island Princess Vivi and king cobra from the designation of alabasta as well as the rku family from dress Rosa and so many more far too many to cover here however being in marijua they were subject to the presence of the Bal Nobles and one in particular being St Charlos attempted to abduct princess shirushi only to be stopped by

another world Noble named St Mosad who very notably was the same man whom shirahoshi's mother Queen alime had saved on fisherman Island that one time during this time we were also enlightened to the actions of the Revolutionary Army who were using the Ry as a chance to conduct a coordinated strike as such their captains were in the process of assembling as we were introduced to them saving a town of civilians from a man acting under the banner of the Blackbeard Pirates these Captains were all let's say interesting figures very much Larger than Life One quite

literally and each with their own incredibly bizarre quirks however they were undeniably powerful and wrapped up the situation in an instant even managing to inspire the people of the town to find their inner strength and fight for themselves it is then made clear that the Revolutionary Army are planning on launching an attack on Mara in order to reclaim their former comrade Bartholomy Kuma who at this stage has been converted into a cyborg and is being rented out as a glorified vehicle for the world Nobles in addition to them another curious face emerges on marija being
