About the "impotent fool" line, I always thought it was the translator's miss understanding the common expression "impudent fool." Like how people think it's "all intents and purposes" is "all intensive purposes," or "espresso" is "expresso." Things like that. And to be clear, in the manga it is "ぬるい男" which directly means "lenient or soft guy." "Impotent" might be close for "soft" but the use of "fool" was editorial flavoring.

[@azraeldusk2154]

Impotent also means powerless to do something. It is not out of place to be used to refer to someone being weak to act on something either. So it isn't necessarily a mistake of this category. Especially since the official translation was "soft man". As in, Sakazuki was too weak-willed to do what should have been done.

⁠@@TheRockerXKuma had no will of his own to their knowledge. Why would they need Bonney to control him? Prior to his cyborgization maybe, but after that the world govt pretty much thought he was completely under their control. Until what like Sabaody? Given that was only two years ago I doubt the world govt felt the need to find and capture her. I’d imagine it has more to do with her status as a celestial dragon. Akainu should know that and would be compelled by his job to protect her. It’s also possible he knows she’s just a little girl and not a full fledged pirate yet, maybe he thinks he can save her somehow.

If Sakazuki is a dad that would be an epic back story. Also it would set up a good plot point. Picture this Hibari gets taken by either the World Government or Blackbeard, being both incredibly pissed and internaly concerned, Sakazuki declares that he will personally take on said foe maybe laying down his pride and working alongside Luffy and Crew to reclaim his daughter. Before the fight every Marine shows up to back him up, showing their pride and sort of trust in him, and as he sheds a couple tears he gives Luffy a stiff apology for killing Ace

Hibari may well have been added to the story to create a path for Sakazuki flipping. His lack of relationships kind of makes it hard to imagine any motivation for change. Giving him and daughter and allying her with Sword means Sakazuki at least in theory has a more reasonable voice in his ear. It's not terribly hard to imagine Koby defying an admiral or higher, Hibari gets involved, someone hurts her, and Sakazuki goes full dad rage on like Greenbull or an Elder. I don't know how redeemed he'll end up being, but he's been moving towards giving the Marines the finger for awhile now.

Pirates capture Hibari and toture her to make him mad like Garp was when Ace died. Then if your losing a fight with him reveal the hostage and have like a contraption bringing her closer to her death to infuriate him more just like Garp was when he got held down then kill her right infront of him or give her the same treatment ace received with a hole through her chest and stomach then let her drop to the ground and let akainu cry like luffy did then you kill akainu to.

I definetly can see a scene of Sakazuki havibg a heel realization of what he's done, perhaps after something he did or orders ends up hurting Hibari badly and has his entire worldview crushed as he now realizes he is also the problem, and if that happens i think it's very likely we'll have a scene of him going into battle, fully intending to die as atonement for hurting what in his eyes is the most precious thing to exist and going iff Oda's track record, i am not going to assume a potential flashback/death scene will fail to make me sympathize

Maybe sakazuki is an alternative to Kuma. Having a dead wife, daughter he's willing to go to any lengths to protect. But where Kuma's a pacifist, sakazuki's a ruthless killer. Kuma relinquishes peoples suffering to take it onto himself, sakazuki delivers suffering to everyone else. Kuma is analogous to God with all his religious symbolism, and sakazuki can be seen as analogous to the devil. Literally he brings a firey and torturous death to his enemies. Even one of his attacks is called hell hound.

The only wrinkle with the "Sakazuki believes in absolute justice because pirates killed his wife/Hibari's mom" theory is that the timeline doesn't line up. We don't know how old Hibari is, but we can assume she is younger than Koby-Senpai, who is 18. Sakazuki was showing homicidal tendencies in the name of absolute justice as early as Ohara, which was 22 years ago. Now, if Sakazuki's whole family, perhaps including a younger sister named Hibari, was killed by pirates, that would fit a lot more cleanly. Definitely hope we get to see his flashback at some point.

I don't think the death of his wife is the catalyst. He was already a hardass when he destroyed Ohara and i believe that's longer in the past than Hibari is old. ALTERNATIVELY If Robin was around 12 when Ohara was destroyed then Hibari could have just been born (assuming she is Kobys age). That's more than enough time for a mother to die and Sakazuki would have literally vented his anger and sadness on the people of Ohara. I changed my mind. I think i like that version better.
