How the fuck are people still in the tank for Hancock, it's been 12 goddamn years.

Nami has been whacking Luffy for doing dangerous shit that threatens the rest of the crew since she first showed up. She's always been the one to go "you could've gotten us killed you idiot!!!", because she's characterized as being a "mature, normal person" aboard a crew of actual lunatics.

But no it's totally because THAT BITCH is looking for ATTENTION and RUINING the boys' FUN.

@Johnny-B-Decent said in Chapter 1059: The Matter Involving Captain Koby:

Actually, yeah, I didn't care for Seraphim Hancock having the snake earrings. Felt too on the nose.

If she didn't have the earrings readers would mistake her for Robin.

Teach has mastered the art of Not Being Horny.

Who had the better pants game this chapter, Teach or Rayleigh.

Coolio has died at age59 because, sure, why not, fuck it, kill all the cool rappers why don't you.

The egg will hatch, revealing the final crew member:

Wow Luffy remembers Vegapunk's name, between this and him remembering Pluton the boy might actually be learning!

It will be genuinely funny if we drop anchor at Raftel and Caribou is still on the boat.

You know eventually we have to catch up with our boy Urouge, he's the only Supernova we don't have a bead on.

Presumably Im keeps the Doom Laser/Uranus in his back pocket and only breaks it out for things that need to stop existing right fucking now, for regular uppity islands they just get a buster call.

I wonder how much of an effect Sabo announcing that someone was sitting on the supposedly empty throne across a radio signal getting picked up by common Marines had on the decision to obliterate that kingdom.

A problem with dating the Warlords is that we don't know how long the Four Emperors were called as such (a point a lot of people forget is that the WG more-or-less made up the concept of "Emperors of the Sea" to describe the strongest pirates in the New World in the Great Pirate Era) beyond the fact that it had to have been at most 12 years ago, because Shanks was absolutely not an Emperor at that point. They can't have existed before Roger's death.

The Warlords being conceptualized as a counterweight to the Emperors, it's possible that they were just the, say, Five Warlords of the Sea when it was just the Three Emperors with Whitebeard, Kaidou, and Big Mom as the top dogs.

The Warlords were formed as a response to the growing strength of the Emperors years after Roger was executed (incidentally this seems to imply the the Warlords as an institution are no more than 12 years old) and by all appearances the original lineup was Mihawk, Crocodile, Doflamingo, Kuma, Jinbe, Hancock, and Moria.

And if there were previous members in the brief period before Mihawk showed up on page, Oda has not seen fit to mention them and I don't think he'd make Seraphim of characters we've never met before now.

In-universe: Tokikake and Gion (the real names of Brown Pig and Pink Rabbit) were Vice Admirals considered for the open Admiral slots, but were rejected in favor of Fujitora and Green Bull.

Out of universe: Brown Pig was one of Oda's sketches of potential Admiral concepts before he settled on replacing Kuzan and Sakazuki with who we got. Pink Rabbit meanwhile was made up by a fan as part of an unsurprisingly horny SBS question that Oda gave a design to and declared her a Vice Admiral. Their cameo appearance talking to Garp is Oda just deciding not to let character designs go to waste.

Aren't Brown Pig and Pink Rabbit just Oda using the "rejected Admiral candidates" he made up for an SBS?
