Who’s the Strongest?

STRAWHATS FINAL ENEMY AND FINAL WAR IN MARIEJOIS
The theme of Mariejois is like Olympus in Greek mythology because they are both located in high altitude place and has a gigantic palace which is built on top of the mountain. (Mariejois built on top of the Red Line.)
Olympus is the home of divine family and ruling gods and Mariejois is the home of Celestial Dragons which we can say the divine family in OP and Gorosei the so called gods.
The pattern or theme of Mariejois is Olympus so we might see a character which is conceptualize and inspired by the king of gods in Olympia. Who’s the king of gods and ruler of Olympus?
In ancient Greece Zeus is the king of gods, god of sky and ruler of Olympus, he is the strongest god in Olympus and no one can oppose him nor fight him because of his great power.
A character inspired by Zeus is very possible because there are gods in One Piece and maybe that strongest god will be the final villain that Strawhats will going to face in the final war against Marines, World Government, Celestial Dragons and Gorosei in the Mariejois.
Remember what Oda said before that the Marineford war will gonna look like nothing in the final chapter that’s why he’s motivated to keep drawing One Piece and he likes his fans to stick with him til the end.
Luffy’s Grand Fleet and maybe other pirates or all pirates and Revos will join Strawhats in the huge war against World Government, Marines, Celestial Dragon and Gods in Mariejois, this is great to see as the last chapter of One Piece!
Mariejois is the greatest place for the final war because remember the impact, excitement and insanity that we felt when Whitebeard Pirates attacked the based of marines in Marineford and started the summit war, what more if we see the Strawhats and his allied forces attack the Marines, World Government, Gorosei and Celestial Dragons in Mariejois and start the final great war. It will definitely give us more excitement, goose bumps and emotions because many pirates and marines will die in this war.

Akainu and the rebels – Yakuza connections of the Admirals
Hello once again everyone and welcome back to yet another theory for your entertainment.This time I shall be discussing the yakuza connections of the admirals but this mostly focuses around Akainu.
First of all, why does the WG seem more like a mafia or yakuza? The way they dress, the way their meetings are held etc.. Does the fact that the 4 admirals are based off actors from the yakuza film era seem strange?
(Everyone knows this trivia)
AKAINU SAKAZUKI
Akainu is based off actor Bunta Sugawara or more specifically, his role in the popular yakuza film series Battles Without Honor and Humanity. In this movie series, Bunta was apart of a yakuza that was trying to shed their yakuza image and make Bunta retire. I’ll get more into Akainu later.
AOKIJI KUZAN
Aokiji is based off Yusaku Matsuda character in Detective Story (1983). In Detective Story, Matsuda was a detective who was hired to watch over a rich goal named Noami much to his annoyance. Things get complicated when Naomi’s mother is suspected of murdering a love hotel manager so Matsuda and Naomi investigates the crime and it leads them to the yakuza. Matsuda also starred as the main yakuza villian of the 1989 filmBlack Rain by Ridley Scott. In the movie, the lead character went deeper and deeper into the criminal undergound until he was lead the Matsuda’s character who was the main villain.
Kuzan’s actions are pretty similar to the movies. He is pretty much an undercover detective playing the villain in order to dig deeper into the underworld.
KIZARU BORSALINO
Kizaru is based off Kunie Tanaka’s character from Battles Without Honor and Humanity and Truck Yaro. In Battles Without Honor and Humanity, Kuine Tanaka was in the same yakuza as Bunta Sugiwara and was one of the people voting for Bunta to retire. Bunta and Tanaka also starred together in the comedy Truck Yaro.
FUJITORA ISSHO
Fujitora is based off Shintaro Katsu’s character from the Zatoichi series. During his training, Zatoichi was a member of the yakuza and killed many people. Regretting his actions, Zatoichi left the yakuza and became a compassionate man, helping as many people as he could during his travels. His endeavors led to Zatoichi being loved by many. However, since Zatoichi abandoned the yakuza, yakuza placed it bounty on his head and are hunting him.
Judging from this, it seems Fujitora blinded himself as punishment and also because he couldn’t stand seeing the suffering he caused(kind of cowardly). Fujitora was probably a criminal and seeks atonement for his actions and believes the WG isn’t what it should be since it failed to catch monsters like him.
Zatoichi- was hunted by the yakuza because he left them. Fujitora came to the “yakuza” to change them.
Funta’s Shozo Hirono- didn’t want his yakuza group to change by shedding their yakuza image. Akainu only cares about the image of himself and the marines.
Coincidence that Fujitora and Akainu lashed out at one another over the image of the marines?
********************
Now to Akainu’s past. As I said earlier, Akainu is inspired by the character Shozo Hirono in Battles Without Honor and Humanity. Hirono was an ex-soldier and street thug who was involved in violent yakuza wars. Hirono was sent to prison many times but soon enough, his yakuza group wanted to shed its image and wanted Hirono to retire, as he was one of the main reasons the group was still viewed as a yakuza. At the end of the film series, after many of his friends were killed, Hirono retired.
Kuzan said that “the grass was greener on the other side” so you can probably guess what I’m trying to say; before the marines, Akainu was involved in criminal affairs. Heck…’Sakazuki’ means “sake cups” and they are for yakuza initiation ceremonies.
As a kid, Akainu is carrying a knife and has a cap that says “justice”. It seems even at a young age, Akainu was killing criminals. Maybe the reason Akainu is so extreme about killing criminals is because he experienced it first hand.
Probably the only thing Akainu hates more than criminals are traitors.
Here, Akainu deems a random marine a traitor for running away from the Marineford War and kills him.
Check Akainu’s dialogue when speaking to Jinbe.
Akainu tried killing Coby cause he deemed Coby a traitor.
After all, Akainu is a member of the rebel faction.
The rebel faction focuses on the findig and demise of those who has turned their backs on the world government. Who are some traitors?
I believed Dragon was a former CP0 agent and that would make the greatest traitor in WG’s history and an obvious target of Akainu. Akainu even knew that Luffy was Dragon’s son even before Sengoku told all of the marines.
As for Bonney, though it is unknown that BB knew of her worht or not, the person who was sent/volunteered to retrieve Bonney was Akainu and he said that she FLED aka RAN AWAY from the World Government. Not the marines.
According to this chart that Oda made, Aakinu is STILL hunting for Bonney and lets not ignore how Bonney’s Post-TS attire is a hoodie to conceal her face.
Why is Akainu hunting for Bonney? Business with Big Mam but that is a theory for another time.
You do NOT leave the yakuza nor do you leave the WG. There will be people coming after your head.

SMOKER: THE WHITE HUNT FOR JACK THE DROUGHT
Hello once again everyone and welcome back to yet another theory for your entertainment. This time I shall be discussing Smoker’s possible clash/confrontation with Jack.
Let me off on how this theory came to be. Its obvious that a bunch Oda’s characters has designs based off real people.
With this in mind, which real life person does Smoker look like? I originally thought Ben Beckman resembled this person but he more so resembles Steven Seagal like in the picture above but enough stalling.
Clint Eastwood or more specifically, his role in the movie White Hunter Black Hear that aired in 1990.
Notice the elephant in the picture? That fact that the movie has Smoker’s epithet of ‘White Hunter’? In this movie, Clint Eastwood plays a white hunter who becomes obsessed with hunting elephants and his friends tries to convince him to stop. Eastwood finally gets over his addiction by letting ONE elephant go, only for it to come back and kill his best friend. Does this sounds similar to Smoker hunting down every pirate that comes his way, Luffy being the ONE and only pirate to escape him and showing obsession by chasing Luffy throughout that Grand Line and New World simply because of pride?
Now then, a White Hunter is a professional hunter of European and American backgrounds(Smoker seems German and yes there are German White Hunters). White hunters derived their income from organizing and leading safaris for paying clients, or from the sale of ivory, which are the tusks and teeth of mammals and most notably, elephant and mammoth tusks(the most valuable kind). In fact, even the wordivory derives from the Egyptian word abu which means “elephant”.
Need more? Ivory is VERY valuable to the Chinese. White Hunters would collect ivory and sell it to the Chinese via the Silk Road, a trading route made famous by the Mongol Empire.
Now for Smoker to go for Jack, that means Smoker(and Tashigi) shall be returning in Zou or Wano right?…..right? Smoker and Tashigi were off to deliver the PH kids to Vegapunk and since it has been 12 days so far, surely they’ve already delivered the kids. Not only that, Smoker has a debt to repay.
It is essentially Smoker’s fault that Fujitora got banned from all marine bases.
1. Smoker believes in an eye for an eye and repaying his debts(he let Luffy go for saving his life)
2. Smoker believes the SH pirates are is to capture
3. Since Fujitora got revenge for Smoker and that it was the SH pirates that Fuji needs to get unbanned, the rebellious stray dog Smoker will kill two birds with one stone by finally capturing Luffy and helping Fujitora.
There is a chance that Smoker will arrive in Zou because as I said earlier, white hunters hunt mammals and Zou flourishes with them.
If its Wano instead, its good to know that Smoker draws direct references from the Japanese police of the Edo period. The main weapon of the Japanese police was the jitte.
For icing on the cake, Smoker resembles an Enenra, which is a japanese smoke demon(yokai) that can only be seen by the pure of heart.
I’ll end it with something interesting. Smoker’s DF is called the Moku Moku no mi but that has always bothered me. The literal translation of Smoke to Japanese is Kemuri. The literal translation of moku to English is wood, timber or trees and “Moku Moku” means many trees. I ound this interesting becuase the name of Smoker’s best friend Hina means sunshine and Tashigi’s sword Shigure means drizzle(literal translation).
So we have trees(Smoker), sunshine(Hina) and rain(Tashigi)…..trees need both sunshine and rain to grow but there will be no growing if there is a drought.
