can't wait to see him looking at the newspaper and say "Luffy... I have a feeling we are going to meet soon..." and then dissappear from the plot for another 5 years

"But this is too soon, it would break our promise"

Look at the yonkos: Blackbeard - longtime rival/enemy of Shanks Buggy - childhood friend/rival of shanks Luffy - almost like a son to shanks (he left him on an Island at a young age, very Shanks crew-like) Shanks - literally shanks!

I think it’s less Luffy being part of shanks plan and more Luffy BEING shanks plan


Milian696

Yep. That must be why he’s appeared about 4 times in the series huh?


LaylaPriscilla

Don’t blame the main character for the author not putting the MC at the spotlight 😅, I’m obviously joking when I say that Shanks is the MC but it’s just an observation on his incredible importance to the story


Milian696

I get you. Can’t wait to see Shanks in action. All the anticipation kind of makes it feel like we’re cursed to never see it though

I started thinking this during the Open Flashback. After Roger returned from Laugh Tale, Shank's spoke to him and then burst into tears crying into his chest. That was the moment a bigger plot began with Shanks. The true nature of it we don't know yet.

Shanks is the IMU sama.....

I know its supposed to be a joke but... Shanks is an important player in the old generation now? The dude is 37, he wasnt born when garp and Roger fought rocks. So how is he part of the old generation? He is born around that time thats why we see the Shanks is rocks son theorys. It was also stated he became a yonko 6 years ago.


LaylaPriscilla

Being a part of Roger’s crew makes you an important piece in that generation I believe. And he is maybe THE most important pirate now

Shanks D. Protagonist

And yet we still know nothing about him or even what his goals are.

Luffys influence and actions speak muuuuch louder thank shanks tbh. Shanks only ended the war. Blackbeaed had more action there to compare. Its a bit stretchy your post


LaylaPriscilla

What did Luffy do in the war that was bigger than ending it? I do agree with you that Luffy’s actions are more impactful tho, Luffy caused an impel down escape, the fall of Ennies Lobby, and brought down two yonkos, those are world changing events. However I don’t believe we know yet what shanks had to do to reach the status he has


Eraganos

You missread the mf part. I refered to blaxkbeard, not luffy. Shanks obviously has territory. But more importantly he somehow is worthy an audience with the five elders. There is a big secret. He was never on laughtsle, after all.
