Law being a Sword member is a theory I like, so I could get behind the garp part. You’d have to sell me on Capone becoming WB but I actually kinda see where the theory could start coming from wholecake where family was such a focal point.
That’s exactly why I said he is WB and unlike Law who been through a lot of crazy shyt with Luffy. Luffy and Capone started as enemies, had to escape together after Capone’s plan fell apart and the departed on neutral terms. They respect each other but they are on different paths.

If there is a future Yonkou who would be all about family it’s Capone.

Since the time skip Law has fought next to Luffy more than Zoro has at this point. Plus there are so many signs Law is a marine. They are Allie’s, maybe even friends, but Law is well the Law.

I don't think this is the end for Kid, it's One Piece, even the most random characters don't die that easily. Oda wanted to write a hype chapter for Shanks and showcase his strength but Kid is still around Elbaf and without a ship to go anywhere. We'll probably see him later when they visit the island. Now what will be his role I don't know.

Kid probably isn't dead, but IMO it's the end for him as far as being relevant to the story.

He no longer has any ship or Ponelyph rubbings. It's over. He's out of the race. The most I see him doing is reacting to newspapers or being on a cover story.

This doesn't seem like Oda style though. He likes to hype things up but he also likes bringing back character who we thought would no longer be relevant after a crushing defeat. Kid is part of the new generation like Law and Oda is too attached to his characters to just kill them off in one shot or offscreen, especially these two that he wrote to at least compete with the big pirates unlike other supernovas. Oda brought back characters that were way less relevant than them in the story so it would be very surprising for him to write Kid and Law forever just like that.

A ship can be repaired like the straw hats did as for the poneglyphs to be honest Luffy is the only one to have an advantage anyway since he has the last person alive capable of reading them in his crew. I don't know what Shanks and the others are going to do with them, this shyt is already rigged from the start :skip:.

Capone's got one of the most useful DF's to command a fleet too. It's an interesting idea that I'd never even thought of.

The next gen of Marines could be really dope. Running with Law, Coby, Drake in high spots. That's if they survive BB's hostage situation. I'm high-key hoping Coby is the BB ship that just pulled up to Egghead. Idk why...maybe Aokiji really is a double-agent and this will be his way of getting Coby free...gimme any excuse really.

Again, I'm not saying Kidd is dead, just that he's done as a a major player. The difference between now and before is that we're in the Final Saga so there's no need to save characters for future arcs. There's not going to be another Impel Down. It's coming down to the wire.

Law is a different story because he's a D and also has a plot-relevant DF. So I could see him still being important to the story after the BB fight.


But I truly think it's a wrap for Midd :francis: when the narrator gets involved Oda usually means business.
