The most probable is the truth about EMO or the void century

[@funchildrenchannel3913]

As far as we know for the moment Vegapunk mostly knows about the "forbidden history" because of the surviving books of Ohara. And since the scholars of Ohara were still searching for answers about what happened in the Void Century, I don't think Vegapunk can give a (full) answer about the Void Century and this will be something we learn through Robin when she discovers it or maybe when the 5 Elders and/or Emu are talking about it.

@@funchildrenchannel3913 I think the existence of Five Elders, Kuma's full innocence and also a little about forbidden century.

[@y0sh_]

@@e.r.c.3717 I don't think someone like vegapunk, who is more just known for being an amazing scientist and a good guy, saying "the one piece is real" would have as much of an impact as whitebeard, the closest to attaining it, did. I think he will mention something about either the existence of Imu (since the rest of the world don't know he exists) or something about the void century (since he knows at least some parts of it, maybe not all, and thats why the WG are at Egghead in the first place)

[@maltedohn5031]

Egghead so far has really solidified my perception of Luffy as an Emperor. Since Enies Lobby, Luffy's role in the crew as the captain was to be the guy who beats the bad guys and protects his crew. So far, he's fought off Lucci (who is arguably Commander level), Kizaru and now Saturn and Kizaru again, while his crew handles everything in the background. Luffy *feels* like the one who needs to be surpassed in order to be beaten and not the other way around as it has been for the last 20+ years. Just great stuff. Can't wait for the next chapter and the lore dump.

[@jase276]

He hasn't done anything though besides get the better of lucci. Lucci still escaped, Vegapunk got terribly wounded, his clew is completely split up, Vegapunk clones got badly damaged and killed, Bonney almost died, and there's a Buster Cal on the Island that it only being held back by the Giants. All of this on Luffy's watch. He's by far the worst Emperor, even Blackbeard has more weight than him. Meanwhile, yonkou like Whitebeard and Big Mom can literally carry an Island on just their name alone. Shanks stopped a WAR with every Admiral present with just his presence. Luffy ain't shit. Can't even protect one girl because, again, if the Giants didn't stop that Vice Admiral, Bonney probably would be dead... AGAIN. Luffy's only job was to get Vegapunk off the Island safely and he couldn't even do that. Vegapunk got hit TWICE in front of Luffy, like wtf is he doing?

I think i watch your videos since just before you implemented those jokes at the beginning of the video. One of those made me laugh so hard that i had to subscribe. Ever since that fateful day, I never missed an upload from you. And because of that nostalgia im so thrilled that you brought back your classic line at the end. Please keep what your doin and im gonna be here for the ride. Thank you Liam. And also: i think you mentioned in another video that some people fear that luffy wont be shown with a serious look like he used to have in big climactic situations after getting the gear 5th upgrade.

The thing that gets me about Kizaru, and some people are putting out the theory that he cauterized the wound of Vegapunk so he could be moved, but what if he was making sure to activate the "Dead Man's" switch at this time, and could possibly be why Vegapunk might be smiling too as I wouldn't put it past Oda to have a flashback with Kizaru being told that if something like this would happen that he would be the one to take out Vegapunk, by either Stella or possibly one of the satellite's like Shaka, which may also by why Shaka spoke with Dragon since I think he knew exactly what would happen once the Strawhats made it to Egghead.

[@mrrooter601]

damn that could actually be it, and it would be the only way Kizaru could be redeemed here. If the theory that Vegapunk isnt actually dead and transferred his consciousness into the computer (ie. its not a recording) it would be way less guilt on Kizaru as well, since hes not actually killing VP. on top of that it was more putting him out of his misery. He got stabbed with poison right?

[@CriosAntari]

​@@mrrooter601 Saturn at that time had not coated himself in venom yet, but he might have been able to inject it into Vegapunk's body since the ends of his feet do almost look like the could be fangs (Just look at a tarantula's fangs, and iirc tarantulas can decide the amount of venom to inject into it's prey or at least some species can) And I didn't think about the transferred consciousness, but if that's the case, couldn't then there is also a chance of someone's consciousness to be transferred elsewhere, like the theory that S-Bear will have Kuma transferred into, or at least part of him who would be able to protect Bonny since everything in my gut is telling me she's not going to be part of the Strawhats, but will possibly be part of the Revolutionary Army like her dad, or part of the grand fleet. Personally what I would like is the theory if S-Bear going with Bonny and because of his buccaneer blood he's able to awaken some bits of memory or feelings kind of like how S-Snake has with the "Will" of Boa and they are able to travel the world like Bonny wanted with her father, but more like how Kuma and Ginny would have loved to.

Vegapunk is 100% dead. If you look closely during the last couple of panels with the monitor playing Vegapunk's final message, there's an electrocardiogram next to it. And it's unfortunate to say this, but it flatlines in time with Vegapunk smiling in Sanji's arm. Vegapunk's final message was most likely his ultimate contingency plan. If the government was coming to kill him, he was sure to have the last laugh against them by revealing the truth of the world. Rest easy to the legend. Hopefully Atlas, Eddison, and Lilith are able to carry on his legacy.

[@Tuffyimpact]

damn i never noticed that.

[@mrrooter601]

he did a mic check though, which leads me to believe it could be live. im pretty sure you can see some video transponder snails in that same frame as well. If VP had this planned out long before, why bother with a mic check, a thing that is generally associated with live recordings. If you were doing something in advance, you would not leave that in the final cut. To add to this, what is one thing Vegapunk has provably done, is split/transfer his being. I dont think the idea of him having himself backed up (or transferred on death) to that big computer we see in the same frame is too far fetched. His body is dead, but I have a feeling the Stella VP is still around. I dont think he will make it out of this in the end, as the island is certainly going to be completely destroyed, so backing himself up to the mainframe as it were wont do much.

[@Drums_of_Liberation]

Considering that Vegapunk was basically able to split himself into six with the satellites it wouldn't surprise me if found a way to cheat death through transferring his consciousness into another body. Sure Oda has been better with character deaths in recent years but until we see definitive confirmation that Vegapunk is dead I'm not holding my breath.

My Biggest Takes from the chapter: The panel of Sanji standing before Saturn is Pure Nightmare Fuel, like this scared me as much as Big Mom’s Demon Form in the Manga. Luffy, Kizaru, Saturn fight right now is truly a Battle of the Gods. I think Kizaru stabbing Vegapunk was him being like “I did the bare minimum of my job.” Vegapunk was already dying. As for what Vegapunk will reveal…there’s a chance he doesn’t… the last time a World Government secret was about to be released…[REDACTED] was wiped off the map because The Mythical Kingdom of Lulusia never existed. I’m sure everyone in the Manga Reviewer Community(myself included) will be both making and taking bets.

[@gumsir9400]

Thinking about it now, Caribou would honestly fit perfectly as a member or Blackbeard pirates. He's somewhat mysterious, he has a devil fruit, and could have some role in the crew by sneaking them into places. And also judging on how Caribou has been with straw hats since fishman island, he knows that the straw hats are considered to be both heroes on fishman and wano.

That was too emotional, since the beginning of One Piece we all have been waiting 25 years to learn the mystery of this world. And now hopefully vegapunk will reveal the truth. Thanks Oda, 25 years such a long long way 😭😭😭😘

[@Baddaby]

For some reason, I feel like Oda will hold up that announcement for 10 chapters 😂

[@jase276]

Nah, it's the Reverie all over again. Watch it be offscreened and we get bread crumbs like 100 chapters later, lol

[@Jaantt07]

Sadly im pretty sure Vegapunk being dead. On last page is showing a panel where the computer starts his recording, is a heart monitor showing line getting flat. Rest in peace apple gramps, at least world will hear you.

[@enricokohler475]

In the last page there is also a heart monitor, seemingly connected to the TV, with a heart line zeroing out before Vegapunks last message started. So at the very least his heart is not beating anymore

[@jaweda6846]

I think that Kizaru is still on Vegapunk’s side. It’s possible he hit him with his light beam to cauterize the wound so he has a chance to move around to get to a doctor.

[@guywithcringycontent3307]

yeah, it was in the same hole that saturn made

[@trollernopecantsay9277]

Yall still yapping about kizaru switching sides, pls stop your headcanon it ain't happening 😂

[@marissaffs9824]

his body went completely limp in the last panel of Sanji holding him, and in the panel where he pops up on the screen there is monitor flat lining. unfortunately Oda turning a character into a donut usually equals death.

[@dmitridiaz2352]

Kizaru has fellow navy members that he has to worry, a single hint of traitorous actions would mean that the people who directly worked under him would be on the chopping block. And the one in charge of that block is a hot headed fleet admiral. Kizaru may have hoped that Vegapunk had made preparations for this but he couldn't go along with it.

[@BlacHippyChronic]

It’s chilling how Gear 5 Luffy is telling Saturn and Kizaru they will be the ones not escaping now. I think we are about to see the full capabilities of Gear 5 something that was teased with Kaido.

[@callankettles3930]

Just something that came to me when you were on about how teach couldn’t trust Caribou as he could be a double agent, traitor etc, couldn’t doc Q with his sick-sick fruit be possibly able to create a truth serum? If so the possibilities could endless especially when the Blackbeard pirates go to mary geoise looking for answers

[@JarlSwagDog]

10:22 Was not expecting a jump scare

[@TheFatalfenix]

I saw people mentioning that kizaru pierced vegapunk at the exact same spot as he was already wounded So some where speculating Kizaru cauterized the injury so it doesn't gets worse

[@belsidhu91]

I think the information Vegapunk about to reveal to the world must be the driving force of Dragon / Revolutionary Army's battle against the world government. In a meta sense, Oda will not want to reveal all the cards now, but I think the crumbs he is about to drop will be large enough for us to at least understand why figures like Dragon and Vegapunk are on the other side of the World Government. It will be a great setup for the next arc, Elbaf where we expect massive diarrhea level of lore drop. Whatever it is, it's peak time for One Piece !

[@Saphrix]

When Kizaru finally got a hit on Vegapunk, i was hoping he was just cauterizing the stab wound he already had.

[@aBunchofCrayons]

The only thing I hold on hope for Kizaru is that he potentially cauterized Vegapunk’s wounds.

[@doctorsam5771]

I just want Luffy to knock Kizaru out cold and then completely squash Saturn

[@PrinceTrunx]

I finally feel like the fight with Kaido has now come full circle. The way he told Saturn and Kizaru while his death grip is firm, there's no way im letting you escape. He definitely looks like the new Emperor who defeated Kaido. Loved it. It leaves no doubt. If you thought the strongest creature alive was a problem. Deal with the calamity of Sun god Nika

[@bobbyb9258]

_"The Sun God is reeeeal"_ 🎶_Can we get much higher_🎶

[@fufufuaru]

loved the waay tosa was presented in the panels, it's easy to imagine how he's gonna be animated and it looked badass

[@thylazytoaster_official]

My brain wrinkled and ima just say, Roger was poisoned by the elder stars, to limit his time on the planet because they knew he was gonna find the one piece.

[@SoDamnCoOoL]

GUYs !! LOOK !! 😮😮😮 Kizaru pericing vegapunk in the same spot that Saturn previously pericied him ... Is to burn the wound and disinfect it from the poisoning effect of the sautrn poisoning's body and claus and to stop the disintegration of the cells!! Its confirmed due to the illustration of the scene of the tree that got poisioned and disintegrated after saturns steps on it that came directly before this scene. Thats the hint !!! Its the same of the aokiji and garp ice percerving wound from bleeding ❤❤

[@poop.9654]

idk how to tell you this but kizaru aint a good guy im 95% sure he just shot vegapunk so chopper/franky wouldnt try heal him

[@P4bulon]

I imagine the situation where vegapunk is about to reveal the most important thing, and at exactly that moment, Chopper "fixes" him up or resurrects him, and the message cuts, to keep us readers still in the dark.

[@TheLegend-hf7pc]

Actually it was proven putting the caster of the orders out of commission gives the ability for someone else to give orders, one example is why up until york was put out of commission they couldnt lock the seraphim up or give orders to them despite there being 5 more vegapunks to order them, also another example is sentomaru who is above admirals on the seraphim and pacifista command order, lost command after sentomaru got knocked out by kizaru

[@Jrust139]

i don't know about anyone else, but i personally had a chilling moment when i first saw the panel of luffy holding kizaru and saturn. it was like when whitebeard stood behind akainu, or shanks confronting everyone at marineford. it was the first time i truly felt the tangible weight of luffy as a full scale emperor of the sea. like HE'S the most dangerous person here where even the top brass of the world government are rendered fearful of just how staggering his power is.

[@savagef2136]

u dont eat a bowl of cereal u eat a plate of cereal

[@denyinglife20]

I really loved the little bit of art analysis in this review, great work!

[@notsovietrussia1329]

12:00 "this sun god does indeed have a vengeful side" goes hard

[@TheCoolestGamer20]

I think it’s possible that Kizaru didn’t kill Vegapunk, but cauterized the wound inflicted by Saturn to stop the bleeding and that’s why he was smiling.

[@LIEFDEenHAAT]

I think that Kizaru may have saved Vegapunk's life. he was bleeding to death from his wound, there are a hand full of ways to stop bleeding, but a wound like that Kizaru may have thought the only way to save him would be to cauterize the wound by firing a laser right through that same hole Saturn made in Vegapunk.

[@vegitohaze2081]

It's possible since this is One Piece but the beam went completely through him, so it's very unlikely imo.

[@leiretxu_99]

10:21 I remember being at the Prado museum in the room with all of Francisco (pronounced "Franthisco", not "Franchisco") Goya's Black Paintings, and seeing a man bringing his son's attention to Saturn's painting (the kid looked around 4 years old). The poor thing hid behind his father's legs in fear and refused to keep looking, even when his dad told him it was okay, and that it was an important artpiece

[@devinnall2284]

What if Kizaru blasted Vegapunk in the exact same place Saturn stabbed him? That way he could still look like he was doing his job while doing the least amount of damage possible and maybe even save Vegapunk's life by cauterizing his wound so he doesn't bleed out. Also it was adorable how small Atlas looked standing next to the giants

[@Kaizoku-no-isha]

The smile and his message playing at the end are pretty convincing, however part of me thinks that Kizaru may have saved Vegapunk, if his attack hit the same wound and cauterized the bleeding.

[@bobbyb9258]

The chapter confirms the untold power hierarchy we noticed while reading the story : Yonko > Admiral > Top Yonko commander > Vice Admiral

[@RoRoudoudou]

Maybe Vegapunk being dramatically donuted will become a gag, like how turtle lion guy kept getting "fatally injured".. One of the most memorable gags for me was him saying "I'm fatally injured, but I'm fine" during a roll-call after a big hit..

[@demonsorrows]

(Just for fun) I would think one of his projects would be actual satellites capable of transmitting across the world. Calling his aspects satellites so it hides the meaning if the WG ever discovers info of him working on them. If he dies, the deadman's switch triggers an AI of his mind to continue protecting Egghead and reveal information of events that transpired. It broadcasts and tells of the events. A partial livestream telling the story of Ginny and Kuma, the love for his daughter, the sacrifices he made for Bonney to live, and his part in it which he does and does not regret for reasons. Then show Luffy fighting, Kuma's belief in the prophecy of the return of Nika and the liberation of Wano from Kaido. The WG, Saturn wanting Bonney murdered after everything Kuma endured. And shows Luffy. People across the world recognize him and his deeds. People are shown from all over smiling seeing Luffy and the Strawhats. When Saturn goes apeshit, Luffy feels them cheering him and it powers him up. When Marine leaders realize what's happening, a general order goes out for soldiers stop people watching/end the broadcast by any means necessary, even destroying the snails. Some threaten, use force, and violently try to stop people from watching it in some places. Leading to riots. After it all, it lights a fire across the world of everyone who knows the Strawhats and their good deeds. They grow sick of WG corruption and see Luffy as Nika. The uproar makes the Marines crack down on civilians while some Marine Vice Admirals make up their minds of where they stand. All happening while the Strawhats and giants make their way to Elbaf.

[@JohnA...]

There is a slight possibility that Kizaru cauterized Vegapunk with that attack, either intentionally or accidentally, thereby extending his life in a way.

[@Lenithius]

Random One Piece thought of the day. Coby saying that he would someday become a marine that could capture even Alvida! in an exclaim was a great foreshadowing as Alvida is now literally the most slippery pirate to catch...

[@joaobarata919]

I watch ur vids since 200k u’ve ímproved so much keep up bro!!

[@NebulousWave]

Anyone else feeling like this is not a recording of Apple Gramps but rather his mind being uploaded into a virtual cloud environment now that his body is dead.... Like why not he is able to separate his brain into separate distinct personalities, completely turn someone into a cyborg, clone memories, extract memories... If I was him a dead man switch on my body would double as an upload switch to the cloud. Plus his brain is not in his body..... so would it even be uploading anywhere... at that point what is his body but just a flesh robot walking around on remote control. Also the first word out of the machine "Ah, Mic Check, Mic Check" it feels more of a live feed and less of a recording. What is up with "Gacha" machine connected to the heart monitor, it apparently refers to small vending machines in japan.

[@cthulhupriestess]

I was thinking that too.

[@mrrooter601]

Didnt notice the mic check part on my first read, but that actually makes a lot of sense. Explains why vegapunk might be more willing to give up his body so easily. which begs the question, do all of his clones need to die for his fruit to be gone or just the main body? That would likely be something very valuable to a group of pirated dedicated to stealing DF powers.

[@mrrooter601]

as for the "gacha" I think it might just be a on·o·mat·o·poe·ia /ˌänəˌmädəˈpēə,ˌänəˌmadəˈpēə/ noun the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named (e.g. cuckoo, sizzle ). "a relatively large number of bird names arise by onomatopoeia" and is intended to be read as the sound of a large machine powering on

[@NebulousWave]

@@mrrooter601 when I looked it up online it specifically referred to a Japanese vending machine. Which was just interesting. "Small toys that are sold in vending machines and come in tiny capsules. These games are monetized by encouraging players to pay for a chance to win new characters, abilities, objects and more". But I bet Oda knows these well, seems like the kind of thing he would play. I thought it was an onomatopoeia as well at first but then looked it up cuz it was weirdly spelled.

[@Generic-Name]

I think the only way that Oda could redeem Kizaru at this point would be to show that his light attack cauterized the wound from Saturn. But I think it is too much of a stretch at this point honestly.

[@MyTummyHurtsfrfr]

Can't wait to hear dorry and broggy laugh, like ain't nobody will top the "Kabwabwabwa" and "Gyagyagyaga" laughs.

[@Dr.O_Kay]

Definitely an Oda missed opportunity here. He should have debuted Franky's armament haki ability, which he could've coated his back with to protect himself. Then, he duked it out with the vice admiral (very high difficulty because he was injured). With the giants ultimately swooping in to save him at the last minute.

[@PerrinJuano]

I had to stop the video with the line "there`s always a bigger fish, even when you are a spider," caught me off guard and made me laugh so much

[@wpower7435]

it is true though his line makes sense

[@KenKHdmc]

Kizaru shooting laser through Vegapunk's chest Luffy: And I took that personally

[@maxon7628]

I think one thing ppl are forgetting is that there is a bit of “Chekhovs gun” which is the mother flame. We haven’t fully seen what it looks like and would make sense if that was the thing that made marines and strawhats disengage from fighting and retreating

[@ShinobiDaNinja]

See what i think happened with Kizaru is that he shot his light through the hole made by Saint Saturn in turn cloterizing the wound and stopping his bleeding. I think this might have saved Vegapunk and has simutaniously saved Vegapunk and made it look like he tried to kill him with 1 attack.

[@Chris-sn9fp]

Vegapunk is about to tell the world about the true history and robin is just casually taking a nap

[@BillyKing21]

1. Borsalino cauterized Vegapunk's donut. (Now he can't die, due to bleeding 😉) 2. Vegapunk is going to reveal the meaning of the D.
