Tag Archives: Ivankov

Before I begin and tie those two things together, I’d like to show you the two main Okamas that we know.

What do these two have in common? 5 things actually
1) They are Okamas
2) They are masters of Okama/Newkama Kenpo
3) They have left Momoiro Island
4) The eyelash like make-up (Ivankov is using mascara on his eyelashes, while Mr. 2 is using make up to match them)
*Remember that Ivankov used to be the queen of Momoiro Island, so it’s normal for the make-up to match the eyelashes with mascara that he had. I’ll get to that later*
5) General use of make-up, including lipstick

Every other Okama we’ve seen, is either not a not a master of Okama/Newkama Kenpo, or they’re still in Momoiro Island.

The reasons why I mentioned all those things, are Corazon (Rosinante) and Sanji.
We know that Sanji stayed at Momoiro Island during the time-skip, and we know that Corazon was missing for 14 years, presumably only training with the Marines. I have a different theory.
I believe Corazon at some point trained in Momoiro Island with the Okamas, in Newkama Kenpo. Why?
Check out his eyes, and you’ll see where I’m headed with him and Sanji.

His right eye make-up, matches Mr. 2’s make-up and Ivankov eyelashes perfectly (4 triangles pointing down).
I believe that the mascara-like make-up is a sign of Okama/Newkama kenpo mastery and that Sanji’s right eye is exactly the same, and he doesn’t want to show it.

The reason behind them having only 1 eye make-uped is one of two things
A) They haven’t completely mastered Okama/Newkama Kenpo
B) They were never real Okamas

Let me know if you agree with me, and if you do, what do you think is the reason for them having only 1 eye make-uped? A or B?

*Theory by RulZ

Little is known about the Revolutionary Army forces so far. What is known is that their movement is a threat to the stability of the world and that they aim to oppose the World Government as well as what it stands for. It would also seem that they are quite knowledgeable and well aware that it was actually Monkey D. Luffy who truly defeated Crocodile in Alabasta and that Vice Admiral Garp is Luffy’s grandfather (before it was revealed to the public).

The Revolutionaries’ base is located in the Grand Line on Baltigo, a windy island with snow-white soil and rocky terrain.

So far, only one of the association’s ships has been shown: Dragon’s unnamed ship. The figurehead and theme in fact appear to be a dragon, complete with a small dragon tail, fitting the name of the leader. This ship was kept around for at least ten years, as seen when Dragon took her to rescue the citizens from the Gray Terminal, and when they landed to get supplies. After the Battle of Marineford, she was seen moored outside of the headquarters.

The Revolutionary Army seems to use a plain dark-red triangular flag

Anyone who becomes a Revolutionary is declared a threat and becomes wanted by the World Government.

While the motives of the Revolutionary Army remain unknown, their ideals might only be dangerous to the World Government itself, as they seem to detest the current government system involving the World Nobles and slavery, as evidenced when Dragon encountered Sabo and the Revolutionary Army liberated the slaves from Tequila Wolf.

Hello once again everybody and welcome back to another theory for your entertainment. This time we shall dive into the origins of Monkey D. Dragon and the creation of the Revolutionary Army. This will talk about how Dragon meet Kuma, Ivankov and Dr. Vegapunk.

Before I start, I would first like to say that Monkey D. Dragon was NEVER an admiral. If he was, why is Dragon so mysterious and unknown even among the marines? You could say that the Gorosei blacklisted him and erased his existence, but that still wouldn’t make sense becausepeople do not forget so easily. The existence of Avalo Pizzaro, Catarina Devon, Vasco Shot and San Juan Wolf were erased for years and what happened when they showed up in Marineford? Random fodder marines with one glance knew their names, epithets and the crimes they commited.
******************

Alright. Obviously Dragon is apart of the Monkey D family, but he seems so different from his son and grandfather(still think he is a “moron” though).

All three of them are from Goa country, which consist of Goa kingdom, Foosha Village and the Grey Terminal mountains. Like Luffy, Garp was raised in the mountains.

Dragon however, was raised in the Goa kingdom with the nobles. Garp was poor so he lived in the mountains, but since he was a marine, he had the funds to get a house in Goa kingdom where Dragon was born, to ensure that his son and wife would have a good life.

Garp of course, regularly took Dragon to the mountains to train him to be a marine, and Dragon developed a sense of justice very early in life. Dragon periodically went to Grey Terminal trash heap, where he became friends with the commoners and learned the value of human life.

Seeing the difference between the nobles and commoners made Dragon upset. He believed that everyone should be equal and was disgusted with how the nobles treat the commoners like trash and kills them off without batting an eye.

Dragon wanted to change Goa kingdom, but he didn’t have the power to do so. He didn’t want to become a marine because his father was a famous Vice Admiral who had little pull with the WG. Monkey D. Dragon joined the World Government itself or more specifically, Cipher Pol.

Dragon was “special” because he was the son of Garp and because was already very intelligent and strong(due to Garp’s training), he moved up the Cipher Pol’s like wildfire.

Dragon has always been curious about his D lineage, as even Garp has no idea what it meant. Dragon got really curious and confused because of this:

The rivalry between Gol D. Roger and Monkey D. Garp.
Both men had ‘D’ in their name but according to Garp, they apparently come from different families and have no relation to each other.

While a member of Cipher Pol however, Dragon meet two people: Jaguar D. Saul and Dr. Vegapunk, who is also a ‘D’. Like Dragon, Saul was curious about his D lineage but he didn’t think too much about it. Vegapunk however, was very curius like Dragon. They became friends and Dragon was shocked to learn of the terrible experiments the WG make Vegapunk do. Despite that, two secretly worked together to find out more about their lineage.

Dragon always believed in moral justice, but his justice is very extreme just like Saul, who easily defected from the marines to do what he felt was right. Dragon time in Cipher Pol revealed quite a bit about the lies of the WG, but that is expected with a government system. Dragon’s disgust with the WG hit a boiling point when he was promoted to the same position as these guys:

Cipher Pol Aegis 0.

As a member of CP0, Dragon worked directly under the Tenryubitto and Gorosei. CP0 specializes in cover ups, blackmail, lies and murder and Dragon had a front row seat to the Gorosei and Tenryubitto’s corruption. He thought Goa kingdom was bad, but nothing compared to the Tenryubittos and they controlled the world. Dragon knew that freedom wouldn’t be realized as long as the current WG exist, but he still tried to change the WG from the inside.

Dragon came to loguetown 24 years ago to witness the death of a follow D that he questioned whether he was good or bad. The WG obviously says he’s a bad guy but from Garp’s stories, Gol D. Roger was a good man.


2 years after Roger was executed(22 years ago), Dragon was 100% convinced that he had no chance of changing the WG from the inside. The reason for that was because of the Ohara Massacre.

In this massacre, he learned from Kuzan that his friend Jaguar D. Saul was killed and that innocent refuges were slaughtered.


CP9 was tasked with making sure that the massacre was a success. If CP9 was informed, so was CP0 and….



Dragon overheard Clover’s speech. He knew that the WG was hiding something and it had to be destroyed. As long as the WG exist, there will be no freedom. Dragon defected from the WG but for the WG, he simply disappeared.

Dragon informed 2 people of his defection: Vegapunk and Kuzan. Vegapunk agreed with Dragon that a revolution was necessary and decided to remain in the WG as Dragon’s inside man, while Dragon carefully creates and expands his organization. Kuzan however, turned down the offer as he thought a revolution was too extreme and thought he could change the WG as a marine. Dragon never told his father because he’d knew Garp would try to stop him.
******************

Now then over the past 22 years, Dragon has created the most dangerous organization that the WG has ever seen.

Vegapunk is a revolutionary spy in the WG.

And Dragon’s left and right hand is Emperio Ivankov and Bartholomew Kuma.

They were with Dragon 12 years ago at Grey Terminal.

So in the timespan of 10 years, Dragon recruited Kuma and Ivankov. Lets into more detail with Kuma and Ivankov’s recruitment.
*********************

Ivankov was Dragon’s first revolutionary recruit. Reason I say this is because Ivankov seems to be the revolutionary who knows Dragon the best.

They even love watering snails together.

Now the question is, why did Ivankov join the revolutionaries? Well we need to recap on some things about Ivankov first.

Ivankov is the queen of Kamabakka Kingdom which translates to “Kingdom of Transvestites.”

I really don’t think transvestites are treated equally in the OP world as many men reacted indifferently to them(much like in real life). In Impel Down, the guards shouted “Look at what they are wearing!”, “What the heck are they wearing!?” and “They are dressed to kill!”

Kamabakka Kingdom is a place for freedom; where people can be what they want to be without being judged. Dragon meet Ivankov on Kamabakka island and treated him and everyone else on the island like an equal. Not only that, Dragon probably saved saved Kamabakka kingdom from WG agents who tried to destroy it. Kamabakka kingdom is just as well known as Amazon Lily, and they are famous for their body enchancing cuisine. Ivankov most likely turned down an offer to become allies with the WG, so the agents tried to back at them.

Anyways that’s just pure speculation but bottomline is that Dragon promised Ivankov to bring a world where everyone is free and Ivankov followed behind.

************************

Here is where things get interesting. Unlike Ivankov, it wasn’t easy for Dragon to get Kuma to join.

What Ivankov said in Marineford implies that he and Kuma had a SERIOUS fight before. Not only that, Kuma also had a serious fight with Monkey D. Dragon.

Before I get into the fight between Kuma and Dragon, we must first understand Kuma. Obviously Kuma is a bear so lets look at what bears represent.

Bear is spirit keeper of the West, the place of darkness, maturity and good harvest. From this place, Grandfather Bear gives strength, introspection and knowledge.

Bears are active during the night and day. This symbolizes its connection with solar energy, that of strength and power, and lunar energy, that of intuition. It enhances and teaches those with this totem how to develop both within themselves.

Grandfather Bear is a solitary dweller and master of his domain. This teaches us the importance of independent thinking and to seek peace in quite meditation.

Bears are sensitive to Mother Nature’s cycles. They sleep long hours in the winter living on fat stored in their bodies. It teaches us how to go within and find the resources for survival and how to remain balanced amid change. This medicine is a reminder of the great circle of life and rebirth, renewal and fresh beginnings.

Bear is the embodiment of strength and is fierce to a threat on its lair. It is not wise to come between the mother bear and her cubs, teaching us ways to always protect those we love.

In Native American mythology, bears are known as the guardian spirits of the forest.

Smokey the Bear anyone?

Also, take a look at Kuma as a kid and that book he has. It says “Ninokin.”

It refers to Ninomiya Sontoku.

Ninomiya was a prominent agricultural leader, moralist and economist.

Bartholomew Kuma HATED the WG.

And that’s because the WG burned down Kuma’s village in the forest and it was no accident. Helping his people rebuild, Kuma was enraged and decided to become his people’s protector with his Paw Paw Fruit. Any trespasser would get blown away by Kuma.

Of course, Dragon and Ivankov came to the burned down forest and Kuma attacked. Dragon, who wanted to help the poor villagers, thought Kuma was responsible so he ordered Ivankov to hold off Kuma while he tended to the people. Dragon learned the truth from the citizens but before he could go anything, Kuma once again attacked him but he was able of emerge victorious.

Dragon told Kuma of his dream to destroy the WG and bring freedom to the world, but Kuma didn’t believe Dragon as he was a former WG agent. In order to be sure that Dragon was sincere, Kuma had a suggestion: when his village and forest was being burned down, Kuma repelled the pain of all the suffering villagers into a gigantic air bubble, and if Dragon can shoulder the pain of his people, Kuma will join the revolution.

Ivankov of course thought it as outrageous, but Dragon went for it. Much to the shock of Kuma and Ivankov, Dragon survived. This is where Ivankov witnessed Dragon’s inhuman vitality.

Dragon surviving that much pain was a miracle.

With hope that true freedom can be achieved for his people, Kuma joined the revolutionaries and became Dragon’s most loyal friend.
*******************
8 years ago, Dragon’s face became known to the world as revolutionary.

It was 12 years ago that Dragon saved the commoners of Goa kingdom.

12 years ago, the Revolutionary Army became active, targeting kingdoms to recruit suffering citizens who wanted freedom. However, during one of his expeditions, there was a big incident involving the marines.

I’m speculating, but I say Dragon had a run-in with the marines(with Doberman and Akainu present) and showcased his Conqueror’s Haki to escape a kingdom with new revolutionaries in hand. Dragon’s unnatural CoC brought forth a storm and blew away a marine fleet.

The Gorosei feared this man as they recognized his description. Monkey D. Dragon became the most wanted man in the world do to him knowing about the WG corruption from being CP0 agent, being Garp’s son, being a D, him looking for the poneglyhs and leading an organization that directly opposes the WG and it will continue to grow until the WG falls.

Before

This is X Drake as a child. Notice how happy he is about the marines

After

This is X Drake after MF. Notice how Oda puts emphasis on “Must Change”. Drake says the marines must change as if he wants to change it.

There are 2 ways to change the marines

1) From the inside
2)Revolting from the outside

Being a pirate is no way to successully change the marines. Look at Kuma for example he became a pirate to join the warlords and help theRA not just for the sake of being a pirate

Sir Francis Drake

This guy’s nickname was ” The Dragon” he is the inspiration for Drake

His Epithet Red Flag Drake

Revolutionary Army Flag

Vegapunk

By his reaction to the pacifists its seems he had interaction with Vegapunk when the Pacifista program started

Gabaru

X Drake was on an island where a revolutionary leader was. Coincidence maybe? But with Oda u never no

Alot of people would shoot this theory down and just think Drake is a Zoan and was was on Kaidos island looking for him. So he must be working for Kaido right? Well I agree but my point isn’t that he is not working for Kaido its “WHY?”

In Dragon words he has revoutionaries scatted all across the globe. The revolutionary seem to be infiltrating spies in key places in the world and building an information network

Kuma: Warlord
Ivankov: Impel Down

But

What if Dragon is infaltrating emperors as well?

Think of it as a chess board. We no yonkos greatly affect how the WG moves. If does something it causes a reaction from the WG. So what if Dragon has spies with the Yonko ranks so he can no the Yonko moves and if he knows the Yonko moves he can predict the WG moves more easily and look for his openings to strike. Some say Aokiji is a part of the revolutionary army and he istied up with BB so if that is true that can add to the theory

Thanks for reading

…

Myth: Ivankov knows a secret from Crocodile’s past, that nobody else knows, and Ivankov can change people’s gender, leading to speculation that Crocodile used to be a woman and had Ivankov change her to a him. In Episode 0 we only see the back of Crocodile’s head, suggesting that he was different back then and that Oda wants to keep it a secret for now.

Fact: So far, nothing has been confirmed. In the SBS for Volume 63 Oda drew the Shichibukai as children, and Crocodile appears to be depicted as a boy, although some have speculated that Crocodile could be a girl who dresses like a tomboy, but Oda has not yet stated anything one way or the other.

There had been a lot of mystery surrounding Crocodile, the former leader of Baroque Works who tried to over Alabasta.

And even though Luffy beat him, it’s almost as if, the story is implying that Crocodile got a bigger role than what he played as the main villain of Alabasta.

Crocodile was first introduced as a Shichibukai, who had the powers of the Suna-Suna No Mi or the Sand Fruit, during Nico Robin’s teenage years, Crocodile sheltered her and took her under his wing in order to uncover the location of a certain weapon:

The Ancient Weapon, Pluton.

Now, this raises a question:

Where exactly did Crocodile learned about the Ancient Weapon Pluton, and more importantly, the knowledge of Nico Robin?

We could assume Nico Robin and Pluton are well known, but the answer Sir Crocodile gave to Nefertari Cobra is damn suspicious on what he would do with such weapon:

Unfortunately, Crocodile failed in his goal in Alabasta, in which resulted in him being captured by the marines and detained in the level 6 of the infamous government prison, Impel Down.

Until he found a reason to bust out: to go to Marineford War and get his revenge from Whitebeard.

Also, do you guys remember what Crocodile said to Luffy while Luffy is unconscious after failing to save Ace?

I think this is a big hint that Crocodile lost a loved one in which he, like Luffy, failed to protect that person.

Another point: Why the hell does Emporio Ivankov knew Crocodile? and what secret does he know about Crocodile?

With this, our guessing game will start:

I believe that Crocodile, in his early years, was one of the members of the Revolutionary Army, and the secret he and Ivankov shares is that, he actually had an affair with Ivankov for quite a while, because Ivankov posing as a female reminded him of his partneras a rookie partner who he secretly had affection for.

This is also the reason why Baroque Works work in pairs, because Crocodile had a partner he trusted back when he was a rookie.

Crocodile, in his rookie days, was just a normal kid who dreamt of being the Pirate King, like Luffy, by going on adventure and having the most freedom along with his most trusted people.

One of Crocodile’s goal was to beat the world’s strongest man, Whitebeard, in which he did tried many times and failed, (Whitebeard gave the facial scar of Crocodile) and eventhough Crocodile’s men is losing trust in him, his partner, always encourages him to fulfill his dreams.

With this, Crocodile promised to himself that he would reveal his hidden feelings to his partner after he beats Whitebeard, making him the man worthy of her praises.

But unfortunately, while her partner had been trusting her to the end, his other crewmates started to turn against him in which resulted to him and her partner being set-up for a World Government ambush.

This resulted in Crocodile losing his hand and his partner, along with his promises and unrequited love.

Filled with scars, Crocodile’s perspective on the world completely changed, he wants to create his own world where his partner would want, and his drive to beat Whitebeard was changed into a thirst for vengeance.

Crocodile joined the Revolutionary Army with a skewed view of world change.

Crocodile and Dragon went separate ways sometime after the execution of Gol D. Roger.

Because while Dragon was a patient, calculating man who wants to acquire the Ancient Weapon to end the world government and the government itself, Crocodile was the impatient one that wants the Ancient Weapon to create his own ideal world.

…

We know that Sabo is the General Officer of the Revolutionary Army. He’s famous as No.2 of the Revo Army .

Now, in many Organizations the ranking order goes by numbers. The smaller the number, the higher the rank that member has. Baroque works had similar system ,where the agents were number given code names. (for eg., Mr.1, Mr.2 )
I dont think that Revo army gives number code names to their officers. But it is common practice to call the top officers of a Organisation by numbers. And that is the reason, Sabo is famous as NO.2. It certainly shows that he is one of the top officers of Revo Army, which is supported by the kind of strength he has shown.

But does being called as No.2 mean that Sabo is most powerful officer in charge after Monkey D Dragon.
I dont think so.
I think that Sabo is the 3rd ranked officer of Revo Army, with Dragon being the leader or better said the No.Zero. And there is another person/officer who is above Sabo & below Dragon. That unknown person might be the No.1 of Revo Army.
We have seen, Crocodile himself being the Mr.zero of Baroque Works. Since zero is the smallest whole number, it is safe to consider that Dragon might too be the No.zero of Revo army.

Similarly, Sabo has been compared to Ace, due various incients & facts like :
1.Ace fought with marine captain to save luffy & Sabo fought fujitora to save luffy.
2.Both theirs fight ended in a tie.
3.Ace was the 2nd division commander of WB pirates & Sabo is the No.2 of Revo Army.

Now, if we look the last point, we can consider Ace as No.2 of WB pirates. With Marco being the No.1 & WB the leader or No.zero.

Here’s the Hiearchy of 3 different Organizations.

Considering all above facts i think that there is an Officer who is above Sabo. Probably Sabo is under him because he is still in-experienced & still has a long way to go .And it would be too soon to reveal the person who is under the Dragon according to me, so we might have to wait for some period before it is revealed.

So who do you think is the No.1 of the Revo Army ??
Here are few of my possibilities.
1.former No.1 could be Kuma.
2.Ivankov seems to be working with Dragon ,since very beginning, but doesnt seem that strong to be No.1
3.If Aokiji is a Revo now, he can be the No.1 of Revo army.Since he does seems strong enought to hold that position.
4.Unknown person, who is still to be introduced.

Thank you for reading, give your thoughts on it
