Hot island? Luffy punched an aligator? Of course is Punk Hazard...

[@andrewknowles1776]

I thought Punk hazard was a cold island?? Geography is confusing😂😂

[@nalulumbay]

@@andrewknowles1776 it's half cold half hot.

[@samithaurko605]

Punk hazard is a Pokemon island

[@Canido19]

I think the island was...filled with alabaster or something?

[@marcopohl4875]

I mean you're not wrong

[@MyNegroAcademia]

I just realized that Crocodile being the villain of the Egypt-based Alabasta is probably a reference to the Egyptian god: Sobek since he’s often associated with crocodiles

[@pugking1233]

Cool fact people still don't know what Sobek was the god of

[@MyNegroAcademia]

PUG King The way I always understood it was that, due to how heavily they’re associated with fertility, pharaonic power and military prowess, they were also the god of those things. Or maybe they’re the god of the Nile? Idk

[@pugking1233]

@@MyNegroAcademia they haven't figured out for sure what is the god of what you said is the most prevalent Theory

[@hayderisded6644]

Matt you need to start a series called "history is something" lmao PLEASE DO IT MAN!!!

[@elfenliedlucy1281]

Lets not forget Luffy died more than 1 time in Alabasta.

[@isaacgleeth3609]

@Pralay Aryan To be fair, Crocodile was the first REAL threat Luffy faced in the Grand Line.

[@user-wq5jq1mg5z]

@Pralay Aryan well he fought whitebeard, almost killing him is the least he can do, also he would have killed him if he saw him as a real threat, easily

[@AlterAce]

Dude I literally just finished reading that arc last night like 6 hours ago lmao. My first time reading one piece and I thought the arc was great. Croc was a great villian

[@gumgumsenpaiuncensored3418]

Just gets better if you can get through the next saga (though I liked it)

[@Agsf256]

Alter Ace have fun the next arc is pretty good but I found skypiea okay but I hear it’s better in the manga

[@jasonduhela9597]

My buddy is reading through it right now, so good!

[@TheMoped]

Where are you at now?

[@iskandarzulkarnain9605]

Bro where are you at now

[@vanitor]

Alabasta is definitely going to be relevant again, we never fully found out about Pluton and it’s importance

[@j_jizzle_69]

I kinda feel alabasta is going to get targeted by the WG after luffy becomes king of the pirates considering the fact the princess and heir to the throne is literally allied with the strawhats. kinda like how the WG targeted everyone associated with Gol D roger. It’d be cool to see the a side story akin to the marineford arc but instead taking place on alabasta and the pirates winning this time.

[@FayzNot]

That door is pretty cool use it more in ur videos

[@clockoff94]

Huh

[@anubis6919]

Come on Tekking, Pell CLEARLY has Hashirama cells and that is how he survived the Nuke.

[@anthonyhowell4090]

Tekking, AOH probably refers to the Age when the Celestial Dragons started their rule, aka Heaven on Earth. So 325 AOH would be 325 years after the 20 families formed the WG, or 225 after the Void Century

[@RaymaMcClure]

Halloween is like four months away, bro.... lmao... That’s a third of a year, not that close. 😂

[@clockoff94]

He does one of these around once a month

18:40 and then there was the filler off the Poneglyph with Zoro, Chopper and Luffy, that caused so many confussion and uproar xD, oh you did mention is at 22:50 xD.

[@far4955]

What if Age of Heaven refers to when the Celestial Dragons (天竜人 / Tenryūbito / Heavenly Dragon Folk) started their rule? The "Heaven" is part of their name afterall........👀

[@robertwalker9579]

Started reading one piece last week after watching your videos for months and im coming in to alabasta so this is perfect

[@oualidachrrab8300]

another intro: Geography Is Everything 'cause in one piece it's all about ZA WARUDO!

You could've just said that Pell has plot armor so thick that it rivals a battleship.

Age of Heaven... Celestial Dragons... I think there may be a connection here

tekking really preddicted cobra death, goated

[@okdre9276]

Honestly, i thought about the same kind of story for Alabasta just like you at the end. It would be really cool. I thought about a possible Buster Call on Alabsta too...but not really sure how to integrate something like this into the story

[@stormstrider1990]

Actually, it's the NefeRtari family with an "r". I know "l"s and "r"s get mixed up in Japanese, but Oda clearly intended the name as a reference to the Egyptian queen, Nefertiti. I would have mentioned this during the Vivi discussion, but I imagined someone else would do it eventually. I couldn't resist anymore.

[@tracythomas4700]

Ace's appearance here could be referencing Ra given their shared connection with the heat/sun.

[@TheVintendo]

I think those Age’s Robin read were only applicable to Alabasta’s history, prior to being part of the World Government. Many ancient civilizations had their own calendar systems , as well as periods that were usually related to a Dynastic change of power. So that Age of Heaven may have been a Golden Age for Alabasta where they had Great rulers, peace with their neighbors and wealth aplenty. But it came to an end after catastrophic war(s) and a clean slate was done to the calendar system afterward.

[@jamesbenedict7516]

That Carue impression is so spot on!

[@darkknight9793]

Ah...The OG big-ass island that houses a big-ass arc...So many followed. But really, Alabasta was the saga that solidified the greatness of One Piece's story telling format for me....

[@willtheboredguy3556]

Unrelated, but because of your Captain series, I've started watching Bleach

[@KanityOnePieceChill]

Yeah, I would die from heat in Alabasta. Great how Strawhats managed to get through 😁

[@unsuspectingman]

29:07 Oh shit Mat called Cobra’s death

[@Sakuera1]

you know I had a moment where I remembered Mont Blonk Cricket. Remember when Noland's log was read? It said the calling of the south bird was heard on 5/21/1122. That was 400 years before Luffy and crew arrived at Jaya. So 400 years after Noland in the year 1522 (+2= 1524 after time skip.) Maybe it can help???

[@demigod5219]

I don’t like sand, it’s rough, coarse and irritating...and it gets everywhere!-Vivi The ancient kingdom put that ponelglyph in alabasta their enemy because that’s the last place the WG would expect it to be, Cobra was mistaken Robin stated this that’s why he wanted to ask the gorosei about it

Bro who's out here disliking these videos? It's not like they're controversial or anything, they're lore videos

[@Woahman1623]

I love you tekking

[@jimmyorchid941]

Lets say that we all know that Cobra is not leaving Reverie alive, especially with what he wanted to discuss with the Gorosei, either he asked too much or said too much. After the mysterious death of her father, Vivi returns to Alabasta to be crown as the new queen. After the ceremony is over, Igaram went to give her a letter that was left by her father containing important messages. One of the message is that he’ll not make it out of Reverie and that the WG is targeting Alabasta, and the other very Important message is the LOCATION of PLUTON and how to activate it. For how did Cobra know about the location of Pluton, we have to go back to the Alabasta Arc. When Robin was stabbed by Crocodile and left to die in the underground tomb, she carried herself to where Cobra was. During Luffy final confrontation with Crocodile, Robin think to herself since I have no one and no home to go to, this will be my final resting place. She told Cobra everything about Pluton that was on the Poneglyph. Cobra final message to Vivi is that everything will be explained in the TOMB of KINGS, he probably left her messages in codes. After Reverie, THE WG probably send CP to keep tracks of Vivi, but she used to work for a secret organization, so she knows how to work around them. After learning about Pluton from her dad, she’s no longer afraid of THE WG. Vivi and Alabasta secretly starts backing up the SH.

[@marcokilby7875]

Oh my God I’m in Scranton, I feel that Pennsylvania moistness in the air lol

I used to think Pluton was a golden staff of some sort because I missed the memo that it was a battleship, but now I'm starting to think that Uranus is not a living being, or a machine, but a sentient machine kinda like an AI, but more real
