a couple of really strong moments, i'm guessing this interaction with sabo was what made dragon seek out a devil fruit that could change the weather (so it could put out fire and such)

And then there's ace, who is truly brothers with luffy at this point

i adore this dynamic of luffy trying to seem cool to impress ace

dramatic irony can make even a wholesome moment like this seem tragic

this became incredibly impactful to have at this point in the story

ahhh and here's the mysterious "Sabo" Ace mentioned/ Guessing he is much like Ace and is more of a "blood brother" than having a biological connection to Luffy or Ace

they must have been good pals with luffy-

oh

crazy to see how different ace was as a kid, dude seriously must have disliked the world to beat tons of people to a pulp and go so far to not talk with luffy

Luffy met Shanks prior to Ace...Imagine how torn up luffy might end up being if Shanks ends up falling, the dude was pretty much his inspiration for his entire life

And we finally see Luffy's reaction to Ace's fate. He's incredibly torn up over it for sure. The fact he has his straw hat in the flashbacks does make me wonder though...

This is pretty much the perfect moment to demonstrate how flawed the World Government + Marines can be.

They'd rather cover up incidents and sweep them under the rug rather than try and inform people of the issue. an action that feels scarily realistic

Shanks and Buggy are the best man. Polar opposites in pretty much every way. Shanks became one of the four emperors, buggy was a no-name pirate.

The fact he managed to pretty much singlehandedly make the marines and blackbeard back down is just great

koby's 100% got the same haki/ability that one girl on skypiea had
