At the same time Fukurokuju and Raizo would face off against one another in another location killer and Hawkins would do the very same however although Hawkins was running low on straw dolls that would absorb damage in his stead he did still have one connected to id and so if killer were to take the life of Hawkins he would firstly have to kill his own captain from there we would have King and Queen Blazing a path of carnage as a punishing treacherous lot among them all the while Marco was pretty low on stamina and sitting things out Sanji was having trouble dealing with them both at the same time by his lonesome as Zoro’s miracle drug had yet to take effect and while Sanji was distracted the opportunist that is Perospero would try taking advantage of the situation but will be thwarted by Nekomamushi  eventually king would target zorro attempting to dispatch of him before he could fully recuperate but was stopped by Marco mark would then bring up an old tale he had heard of some time ago about a race of people atop the red line who could burst into flames something king would not respond.

Zoro and Sanji would suddenly unleash a combination attack

However Marco would quickly relinquish his place in this fight as now it was time for these stars to take the stage as Zoro and Sanji would suddenly unleash a combination attack on the two now concluding that once they win this fight they will be able to catch a glimpse of luffy as a king of the pirates with this latest chapter we would open up to zorro and Sanji standing side by side shoulder to shoulder Zoro’s healing was successful however the dangers of its aftermath would still be an issue later on but for now at least King and Queen were on the ground at this point a grunt would set their sights on Zoro but would be cut down by Kawamatsu and with that Hyogoro would tell his guys not to let anyone interfere with their duel not friend or foe what was an expression of the ever honor bound ways of the samurai as this fight clearly meant a lot to Zoro and Sanji now at this point Marco would continue to stare at King as you remember the words of Captain Whitebeard at the time during a conversation with his old man he expressed that he thought only Mary Geoise was above the red line but whitebeard would respond by saying that he was referring to the distant past that back then god’s land was up there as a younger Marco then questioned when whitebeard began believing in such things and Marco was so lost in thought that Izou had to save him from harm’s way telling him to wake up he would also question how Marco could have possibly spaced out like that in the middle of an active battlefield but Marco would respond that he was sure Izou would have his back then asking him if he believed in god and to Izou this just sounded like Whitebeard back when he was drunk but now getting back to the fight between Zoro and Sanji vs King and Queen.

Since his second time using the Raid Suit

Queen would say the last blow the two had delivered did not even hurt that they would need to try a bit harder if they hoped to take them down that as two of Kaido’s three calamities their unstoppable toughness is why they are considered to be all stars and as he fired off several shots Sanji would make a certain sound of strain which Zoro would question apparently since his second time using the Raid Suit he’d been feeling a bit off which is surely the precursor to a new development in his power but more on that in a bit Zoro would make sure that Sanji would not slow him down as Sanji would again clarify that his body just felt a bit off at this point king would draw his blade as Zoro would repel it with two of his own as he left over the shoulder of Sanji and as queen went to attack Zoro Sanji would repel his metal arm with a blazing kick and just then queen would recall that all of judge’s children were cybernetically enhanced then seeking to confirm that Sanji’s leg too was some sort of augmentation however Sanji would refute this sentiment by declaring that he was just a regular human unlike his siblings.

Sanji was an idiot as his leg literally burst into flames

Answer this queen would question if Sanji was an idiot as his leg literally burst into flames and it’s not like he’s a lunarian and based on the reaction of king to this it would seem that he himself is a lunarian and with lunar being right there at the forefront of the name we may presume some sort of connection to the moon this is some crazy stuff guys because we know the moon to be a very important location and presence in the world of one piece also known by the Skypiean a race of people that also possess wings to be the fairy verse the likes of which Eneru had visited and found the automata a collection of small robots created by an ancient people within the Ruins of Burka so yes the moon is very important yet to possess the power of flame is an interesting combination of concepts that i cannot wait to see properly explored now it’s hard to know if king will tie into the story of Sun God Nika at all considering he was on the same crew as Husu for a long time yet who’s who still had unanswered questions that being said king does seem to be a bit reserved so maybe it’s not that far-fetched but getting back to Sanji he would relate his fire to the fact that his passions burn hotter than any real flame could which is something i was willing to subscribe to before it was brought back up here for as wacky as the world of one piece may be there is even if not available to us immediately a reason for everything Sanji may very well have been augmented in a fashion unlike his siblings to the point where he’d be unaware of it for this long but in using the Germa suit he may have jump-started the progression of his bodily modifications and perhaps on account of this difference his potential would be that much more incredible.

Sanji would Ferris wheel his legs against the hardened exterior

But yeah Sanji would Ferris wheel his legs against the hardened exterior of Queen and the cyborg would then boast about his enhancements being superior to even the creations of Dr Vegapunk which i highly doubt considering what we get later with this chapter but whatever now king did actually look elsewhere at the mention of the lunarians and so Zoro would tell him to not get distracted as their blades would clash yet again but king’s blade acted like a key which caused Zoro’s in its grooves as he flung them away and proceeded with a nasty sucker punch of the face from there Zoro would withstand it thanks the sword in his mouth and would now come to the understanding that king likes to fight dirty as king would reply that he never understood why someone would stick to traditional forms and such in the midst of real combat and Zoro couldn’t complain.

Nasty sucker punch of the face from there Zoro

Since the guy never claimed to be a swordsman or anything but would say that if kings go into fight like that then he might just follow suit as he could not afford to lose here and in looking at all this Kawamatsu would speak to Kyogre about when lady Hiyori offered Zoro, Odin Sword Enma that at the time he honestly couldn’t show too much resistance and Hyogoro could clearly see what he meant that despite being a foreign pirate he was incredibly similar to the former daimyo of ringo Shimotsuki Ushimaru  as Kawamatsu would say even their sword handling was the same which is quite the extreme similarity as Zoro has a very outlandish sword style but to take things even further Ushimaru was a direct descendant of the god of the blade Shimotsuki Ryuma the zombie which Zoro received Shusui from after emerging victorious Kawamatsu would consider this to be a degree of fate as after all Ryuma 2 was a one-eyed samurai now this is hype I don’t want to go too far into our speculation with this discussion but wow zorro just keeps getting cooler and cooler after this we would have jack versus the duke jack would speak of how he’d forgiven the minx for sheltering.

Zoro received Shusui

The samurai as they had suffered quite a lot for their deception but the duke did not mind at all as they would not have been able to live with themselves if they had sold Raizo out as he would then grip onto the trunk of jack and throw him right through a wall in what was an incredible display of strength that everything they had gone through was for them to get to this point that for 20 years they had been tormented by their questions of uncertainty and suddenly on account of a hole in the wall the duke had entered his Sulong form and like the prior sentiments of Raizo and all the other samurai he was willing to lay down his life to usher in the dawn of the new world at this time Nekomamushi would have a score of his own to settle as he would approach a down Pedro sparrow he would tell Pedro to pour himself a drink from the heavens above and watch as now with him also being in his too long form he would promise to claim the life of Pedro sparrow inside the castle Raizo and Fukurokuju were still fighting Fukurokuju would mock Raizo for serving a child but Raizo would rebut that everyone needs time to mature and that if misfits like them could become samurai then with Wano shaping Momonosuke’s growth, he would be just fine meanwhile at the port we would have the heart pirates and caribou terrified and drawing weapons as apparently Kaido was here as we would then see a fully grown Momonosuke in his dragon form with luffy standing before him this is incredible this man looks so damn cool i mean this is better than i could have ever expected.

Because good lord is this insane

Dr Vegapunk is clearly a god so we’ve been able to make this artificial devil fruit because good lord is this insane and so with that perhaps a caveat would be that Momonosuke does not have access to hybrid forms it is just all or nothing which is not a bad power to possess when you can turn into a fragging dragon now luffy would look at him and think back to their first meeting he would then call out to him as Momonosuke would respond to confirm that it was in fact him as it turns out Shinobu had aged him up until he was 28 years old oh man i did not expect that much of a jump but that is perfect it is exactly what he would have been at this point in time now luffy did not know that this was something Shinobu could do and would wonder why she was crying as she could not help but cry because of the uncanny resemblance between Momonosuke and his father lord Odin which is just so ridiculously hype but now the two were ready to take back Wano and that was the chapter and oh my lord what a chapter.

 

My lord what a One Piece Chapter 1023

It was there was just so much to it honestly this could have been split into three separate chapters and i don’t think anyone would complain I mean the overwhelming excitement i have been talking about that i hold for these two characters returning to the battle is uncanny especially considering kaido is so assured of his own victory one piece brings hype unlike any series out there period.
