LOL Zoro is fighting Gilgamesh! That's another reference to eastern culture there, both to literature and to the Final Fantasy series :)
For those who don't know, in Final Fantasy games Gilgamesh is a sword collector who travels times and dimensions to take the best weapons. In the games he's...
Well for one thanks to the scroll next to the monkey we know at least he is called "Hihi" (stands for "Baboon" in Japanese). I'm really wondering what kind of role he could play in this early arc setting... But he looks and seems very strong: he shot that huge dog-lion hundred yards out of the...
I agree, he has been to Raftel, knows true history and is a Yonkou - as well as the most sane and diplomatic one at that. The guy simply has too much contractual power not to be aknowledged by the Gorosei.

Man, I needed a break from all that royal scheming. And damn, I don't know how Togashi does it everytime, but why do I always find myself cheering for the Phantom Troupe?
Besides, just how many variables is Togashi planning to put into place in this arc, what an absolute mad man.
I appreciate the criticism, and indeed I do believe the Marshall bit to be the weaker part of my idea. I guess what I'm trying to convey here is that, although Teach is a D. he does not share one of their most defining characteristics: fearlessness of death. There has to be a deeper reason for...
