The reason I'm curious is because it seems like Kaido can just order them to do anything he wants if he just dangles an "All Star" position in front of their face. It seems like a major cop out for Oda to essentially not create any proper motivations for his characters and just say "uhhh they wanna be All Stars because... reasons." | ||

I mean they were bitching about being told to sit around and wait. They aren't exactly the top of the food chain. | ||

Of course the important takeaway from the chapter is that Kaido has a son, who presumably is to be wedded to one of Big Mom's daughter to cement the alliance, who will probably run away from the marriage and get rescued by the strawhats like Sangi 2.0, but discussing that is way more boring. | ||

Like in real life some X footballer would wear a different colored shirt and fly to the other part of the world to be like one better off play 2 more games. They hit each other or get mad at each other because someone else wants to shoot the penalty ball & etc. I think that's even more stupid than what is happening here. They just hate each other's guts probably old guard vs. new guard dynamics, and they all look forward for setup that pits them against each other. | ||

Both are twin brothers but one is a marine with beautiful teeth and the other is a pirate who probably needs dentures. Exact same genetics, just two different dental plans. | ||

Actually the state of medical advances is, like many sciences in One Piece is really bizarre. Ignoring the magic as technology aspects in One Piece there appears to be modern world knowledge, complete with IV infusions; the only thing missing from the modern world are electricity based advances like MIR scanners and X-rays and suchlike. The surgical practice is modern, seemingly able to stitch back limbs, connecting nerves and setting bones. Or applying foreign animal donator organs without being rejected by the host which is beyond modern medical knowledge. Other than electrical equipment, their equipment is modern, which shouldn't be possible with the material and metallurgical knowledge of one piece. | ||

Guns and ships in One Piece are the prime examples of the wierd level of technology in One Piece. For guns, most guns appear to be napoleonic era muskets, only that nobody ever seem to load the damn things. In fact both pistols and muskets seem capable of being fired without being loaded or reloaded. Of course this is a world where these bullets cannot damage Luffy somehow. At the same time modern sniper rifles seem to exist. Meanwhile, ship building technology is also stuck in the napoleonic ages, made of wood, only that the Marine battleships are bigger than WW2 battleships, which suggest some sort of internal iron reinforcements as it isn't possible to go that much longer than 50m before a wooden ship breaks itself apart. Which makes the lack of ironclad ship mysterious, and the lack of a steam engine in said battleship mysterious as steam powered ships existed in the napoleonic era. The existence of these massive marine battleships complete self rotating turrets suggest a high level of mechanical propulsion (how do the turrets even move without steam power) and material technology that isn't reflected anywhere else, including the non-explosive cannonballs. But gas masks exist. Also lasers and intelligent autonomous walking robots in a world without electricity. Just who is hoarding all the good technology? One wonders if Holy Land Mary Geoise is full of glass skyscrapers and all the world nobles are driving electric cars and travel with jet planes and speak to each other with smartphones. | ||
