History HoYay / OnePiece

* There's also Shiki and Roger, although it seems to be one-sided on Shiki's part. Shiki is first seen in his introductory scene offering Roger a chance to [[WeCanRuleTogether join forces to take over the world]]. Of course, Roger refuses despite being outnumbered a 100-1 and the huge battle that ensues leaves Shiki's forces devestated and with Shiki having a wheel stuck through his head. Later, when Roger is supposedly captured by the Marines and sentenced to death, Shiki invades '''Marineford''' to rescue him, [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou refusing to believe that someone as strong as Roger was so easily captured]]. He's stopped by Garp and Sengoku, the [[AuthorityEqualsAssKicking most powerful men in the Marines]] (at the time at least), who inform him that [[YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle Roger's execution is being held at Loguetown in East Blue]] and that they would not allow Shiki to invade the East Blue to stop the execution. The battle that ensued took out half of Marineford, but ultimately ended in Shiki being sent to [[TheAlcatraz Impel Down]] where he managed to escape by ''cutting off his own legs and replacing them with swords'', ultimately planning to take over the world and devestate it with his own devices. On the whole, he comes off as something of a {{Yandere}} when it comes to Roger!

* [[{{Transvestite}} Emperor Ivankov of Kamabakka Island]] is ''very'' loyal to [[LaResistance Dragon]]. So much so that he was willing to wait for Dragon's signal while stuck in [[TheAlcatraz Impel Down]] and is only convinced to leave once he finds out that Luffy is Dragon's son. He then makes protecting Luffy his top priority, even stating that he wouldn't be able to face Dragon if he allowed his son to die in battle.
** Regarding that first part, he is living in luxury in his own hollowed-out section of Impel Down surrounded by people who practically worship him, so waiting for Dragon's signal isn't all that impressive a sacrifice.
** Probably doesn't help that Ivankov can change his/her gender at will...

* Doflamingo and Crocodile are considered by many to have a [[FoeYay suspicious dynamic]] due to the former's flamboyant attitude and rumors surrounding the latter's true gender.
** In Marineford, Crocodile blasts through the battlefield with relative ease until he is stopped by Jozu, a Haki user. Doflamingo stops Jozu from attacking Crocodile, despite the two being enemies on the field, and asks him to team up. When Crocodile refuses, Doflamingo laughs at how Crocodile "hasn't learned his lesson", and Crocodile mocks him back before before before blasting him away with sandstorm. The whole scene reeks of murderous yet flirtatious FoeYay fuel.

* Let's not forget the other Donquixote brother, with whom Law shares a hefty dose of FoeYay with. While ItsPersonal for both of them, it's more like the two are stuck in TheMasochismTango. With some of Doflamingo's actions, it seems as he's [[NotGoodWithRejection insanely bad with rejection]] and [[GreenEyedMonster jealous]] of ''[[MurderTheHypotenuse anyone]]'' who Law's close to.

* The FoeYay variation with Luffy and Charlotte Katakuri, which was cemented in Chapter 893 after [[spoiler:Katakuri became infuriated with his little sister Flampe for interfering with their duel. Having come to see Luffy as a WorthyOpponent, his newfound rival inspired him to finally break out of his SlaveToPR mindset and fight for himself for once. This leads to Katakuri willingly and permanently discarding his "perfect" image by revealing his "pelican eel" to Flampe and her subordinates after they start insulting Luffy, telling them that if they're going to laugh at his opponent, they should laugh at him as well. That's right -- Katakuri essentially gave up his carefully cultivated reputation to defend one of his crew's enemies and have the fight of his life. It's as manly as it is potentially romantic]].

** Don't forget the way Nami smiled at Vivi in the Alabasta bath scene...heck, Nami and Vivi's close buddy-buddy relationship in general. Does anyone in the fandom believe [[AmbiguouslyBi Nami is completely straight]]?
** Nami towards Robin, especially post Enies Lobby. Robin is the only character that Nami says that she loves on a regular basis and is far more touchy-feely with her than the other crewmates, and it's also revealed that the women's quarters on the Thousand Sunny has only one bed in it.
** Also, during the end of Punk Hazard, the way Nami talks about Tashigi raised some eyebrows.

** Sanji spent two years training under Ivankov and the New Kama, without a pretty young lady to be seen, to the point of basically going insane from lust when he returned to Sabaody. Ivankov had a full set of the Straw Hats' wanted posters, so Sanji could have kept Nami's to tide him over (Robin's picture was at that point of her as an eight-year-old, [[EveryoneHasStandards and even Sanji's not that much of a pervert]])...but instead he took ''Zoro's.'' And carried it around in his jacket pocket. [[WebComic/HarkAVagrant Paging]] [[MemeticMutation Kate]] [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=327 Beaton...]]

** In a recent chapter, [[spoiler: Luffy praises Sanji saying he is worth a thousand men and they need to get him back. A few frames later, Zoro says, "J-just so we're clear, I'm worth two thousand. Got it?" sounding like he's jealous Sanji got praise from Luffy.]]

** After rejecting Doflamingo's invitation, Crocodile goes on to aid Whitebeard by saving Ace. This prompts Doflamingo to jokingly cut off Crocodile's neck -- without Haki, so the latter is completely unharmed -- saying he is ''jealous''. The two then engages in combat with Crocodile later emerges unharmed. Some fans speculate that by engaging him in combat, Doflamingo is actually trying to protect Crocodile from the Haki users such as Jozu for attacking Whitebeard, and the three Admirals for saving Ace.

** Doflamingo kept the Heart Seat, where he intended Law to sit, open for ''13 years''. Even though Law had ran off after eating the Op-Op Fruit, he was welcomed to return at any point. Then [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty he chains an unconscious Law to the seat with Sea stone cuffs so he can't escape]]. Symbolic? You tell me.

** In chapter 659, to cross a lake, [[spoiler: Robin imagines Zoro and Usopp carrying her and Luffy and specifically, Luffy is riding Zoro.]] ShipperOnDeck?

** Then, in chapter 815, Luffy outright teases Zoro about how [[spoiler: worried he is for Sanji.]] Just add blush to his cheeks and it's [[https://68.media.tumblr.com/78726ae743322af7977de27bd565d4bb/tumblr_o21325K5A01r8gge5o1_500.png complete]].

* The Kalifa/Nami fight was equal parts fanservice and LesYay. Is it really necessary to practically ''''spoon'''' with your opponent to use Kalifa's devil fruit power?

** In Marineford, Crocodile blasts through the battlefield with relative ease until he is stopped by Jozu, a haki user. Doflamingo stops Jozu from attacking Crocodile, despite the two being enemies on the field, and asks him to team up. When Crocodile refuses, Doflamingo laughs at how Crocodile "hasn't learned his lesson", and Crocodile mocks him back before before before blasting him away with sandstorm. The whole scene reeks of murderous yet flirtous FoeYay fuel.
** After rejecting Doflamingo's invitation, Crocodile goes on to aid Whitebeard by saving Ace. This prompts Doflamingo to jokingly cut off Crocodile's neck - without haki, so the latter is completely unharmed - saying he is ''jealous''. The two then engages in combat with Crocodile later emerges unharmed. Some fans speculate that by engaging him in combat, Doflamingo is actually trying to protect Crocodile from the haki users such as Jozu for attacking Whitebeard, and the three Admirals for saving Ace.
** The two seem to have a history, and whether as allies or rivals, Doflamingo recognizes his strength. When he heard Crocodile was "defeated by Smoker", he instantly knew that was not the case and the government must be hiding something. At the end of Punk Hazard, he beat up Smoker - mainly for Baby 5 and Buffalo - but is that all there is to it? In the middle of his fight against Luffy, he realized Luffy was the one who beat Crocodile, and then he proceeds to attack Luffy [[https://ibb.co/YPwFHRP a little more agressively.]]

** [[spoiler:After witnessing Doflamingo brutally shoot down an already incapacitated Law, Luffy reacts with outrage and immediately sends Zoro and Kin'emon to help him. Unfortunately, interference from Fujitora hinders them and allows Doffy an opportunity to kidnap him, and Luffy readily abandons obtaining the Mera-Mera fruit and the gladiator tournament in order to go rescue Law. Bartolomeo even asks what he will do about Ace's devil fruit, to which he replies that it's loss can't be helped, ''because Law needs him right now'']].

** Law's [[spoiler: obsession with Coraźon]] in general. [[spoiler: His last thoughts before succumbing to the gunshot wounds inflicted on him by Doflamingo weren't about his plan or the agonizing pain, but were instead of Coraźon.]] Law, who was always presented as an ambitious man, is [[spoiler: perfectly happy to throw away his life and dreams if it means fulfilling Coraźon's stated goals.]] In addition, he [[spoiler: named his crew after Coraźon, designed his jolly roger in reference to Coraźon, wears a jacket with Coraźon's name emblazoned on the back, and tattoos references to Coraźon all over his body. He even outright stated in chapter 725 that the only reason he decided to survive to the current point was to avenge Coraźon.]]

** Doflamingo still seems intent on having Law as his right hand (mostly due to his devil fruit), and quick to blame others for Law's betrayal or [[NeverMyFault why he's kicking the utter crap out of the guy]]. Throughout Dressrosa, Doflamingo continually tries to convince Law [[WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou he should be blaming his allies for why Doflamingo is beating him up]].
** Doflamingo kept the Heart Seat, where he intended Law to sit, open for ''13 years''. Even though Law had ran off after eating the Op-Op fruit, he was welcomed to return at any point. Then [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty he chains an unconscious Law to the seat with Sea stone cuffs so he can't escape]]. Symbolic? You tell me.

** Doflamingo's fixation towards Law nears {{Yandere}} territory towards the end of the Dressrosa Arc. He was very willing to play along with [[spoiler:bargaining for Caesar]], claiming he didn't want Law to eat the Op-Op fruit because he was too precious a subordinate [[spoiler:to have to eventually die to give Doffy immortality via the fruit's ultimate technique]], and lamenting that [[spoiler:Coraźon's influence has ruined him]], as if trying to convince him to return to his side. ''Everything'' goes straight out the window [[spoiler:the moment Law reveals that he is a D]]. Doflamingo becomes extremely aggressive, his killing intent ''skyrockets'', and he is briefly regretful that he now has to kill Law and restart his hunt for the Op-Op fruit. [[spoiler:Considering the earlier revelation that the D. bloodline (Law) is the born enemy of the Celestial Dragons (Doflamingo)]], Doflamingo appears to take the news as the last betrayal he can bear and a case of "if I can't have you, no one will", as he proceeds to [[spoiler:tear his right arm off, empty his gun into him before attempting to crush his head underfoot]]. Luffy's interference to save Law from death, [[spoiler: the fact him being a fellow D. rather than due to their alliance]], is what appears to fuel Doflamingo's wrath further.

** Then there's when they meet during episode 658. LOTS of sparkles, Bartolomeo is acting like a lovesick schoolgirl, and we're treated to him seeing a bishounen Luffy. You can't NOT see the fodder here!

* A rather...interestingly-worded line in the anime when Blackbeard and Shanks confront each other at Marineford is Teach noting it's good to see Shanks' "good-looking face again".

* The Tottoland Arc has plenty of potential subtext for Sanji x Luffy; the pure hell Luffy goes through to get Sanji back- while not surprising or unexpected at all- basically follows the classic story archetype of a prince coming to rescue the DamselInDistress. Furthermore, Luffy's dedication makes Sanji ''cry'' and have fond memories of his time with him (and the crew) several times throughout the arc, which is practically 100% pure fuel for the shipping community.
** It helps that, after Sanji [[spoiler: beat the everliving hell out of Luffy in order to protect him and the rest of his loved ones]], [[BigEater Luffy]] nonetheless vowed to [[spoiler: ''not eat a single bite of food or drink from someone other than Sanji'']]. If that isn't HoYay fuel, ''nothing'' is.

* There are possible DepravedLesbian implications from Charlotte Smoothie. "Juicing" people evidently gives the victim a pleasurable sensation while also allowing the user to "drink" that person's "essence"- which is ''definitely'' ambiguously erotic- and Smoothie seems to prefer to use her powers on other women; she chooses a beautiful woman as her personal day-snack, serves ''another'' [[http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Charlotte_Smoothie?file=Smoothie%27s_Ability.png woman to the guests of the tea party]] (while appearing to be directly gazing at her butt), and licks her lips with a [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty predatory]] [[http://i.imgur.com/VLzhmMK.png expression on her face]] when she gets a hold of [[MsFanservice Nami]]. In fact, shortly after that, she does this again to Reiju- and this time, it's [[http://i.imgur.com/QRCibAP.png quite clear that she specifically]] chose to grab ''her'' over Luffy or Sanji.

* Don't forget the way Nami smiled at Vivi in the Alabasta bath scene...heck, Nami and Vivi's close buddy-buddy relationship in general. Does anyone in the fandom believe [[AmbiguouslyBi Nami is completely straight]]?
* Also, during the end of punk hazard, the way Nami talks about Tashigi raised some eyebrows.

* Nami towards Robin, Robin is the only character that Nami says that she loves on a regular basis and is far more touchy-feely with her than the other crewmates, and it's also revealed that the women's quarters on the Thousand Sunny has only one bed in it.

* Doflamingo and Crocodile are considered by many to have a suspicious dynamic partly due to the former's flamboyant attitude and rumors concering the latter's gender.
** In Marineford, Crocodile blasts through the battlefield with relative ease until he is stopped by Jozu, a haki user. Despite the two being enemies, Doflamingo stops Jozu from attacking Crocodile and asks him to team up. Crocodile refuses, saying he's aware that Doflamingo just wants him to work as his subordinate. Doflamingo laughs at how Crocodile "hasn't learned his lesson", and Crocodile mocks him before before blasting Doflamingo away with his sandstorm.

** The two seem to have a history, and whether as allies or rivals, Doflamingo recognizes his strength. When he heard Crocodile was "defeated by Smoker", he refused to believe the newspaper and thought the government must be hiding something. At the end of Punk Hazard, he beat up Smoker - mainly for Baby 5 and Buffalo - but is that all there is to it? In the middle of his fight against Luffy, he realized Luffy was the one who beat Crocodile, and then he proceeds to attack Luffy a little more agressively.

** A fan requested Oda to draw [[https://i.redd.it/jz89bw5bn4n31.jpg Crocodile and Doflamingo team up]]. However, on his own, Oda added a flamingo wearing the Queen's crown and a crocodile wearing the King's crown. Anyone wondering what is the message behind that choice?

* Nami saves Usopp from the snow, but has to remind him that she's [[FreakyFridayFlip not actually Sanji.]] [[http://www.mangareader.net/one-piece/675/6 He expresses disappointment upon that realization.]]

* Doflamingo and Crocodile are considered by many to have a suspicious dynamic.

Despite the two being enemies, Doflamingo stops Jozu from attacking Crocodile and asks him to team up. Crocodile refuses, saying he's aware that Doflamingo just wants him to work as his subordinate.

In Dressrosa, there was a flashback where Doflamingo heard Crocodile was "defeated by Smoker" and refused to believe it, showing that he knows and respects Crocodile more than many.

* Doflamingo and Crocodile are considered by many to have a very FoeYay dynamic in Marineford.

** Doflamingo stops Jozu from attacking Crocodile to fight him himself. However, Doflamingo does not use haki at all, as if he doesn't want to harm Crocodile. Some speculates he might be trying to protect the other from Jozu and other marines, or simply just wants to have Crocodile's attention to himself. Either way seems suspicious...

* also, during at the end of punk hazard, the way Nami talks about Tashigi raised some eyebrows.

** In Wano Arc at the prospect of getting torture for information Usopp says he'll surrender, at which [[https://i4.mangareader.net/one-piece/930/one-piece-11784355.jpg Sanji says he'll protect Usopp from all harm]]. Usopp who was hoping to get this reaction, pretty much squeals with delight at Sanii's words.

[[caption-width-right:350:Oh dear]]

* Some consider Zoro's {{Heroic Sacrifice}} and unquestioned loyalty for his captain (and stopping Sanji from making his ''own'' HeroicSacrifice) prime Yaoi fuel.

* The Tottoland Arc has plenty of potential subtext for Sanji x Luffy; the pure hell Luffy goes through to get Sanji back- while not surprising or unexpected at all- basically follows the classic story archetype of a prince coming to rescue the DamselInDistress.

--> '''Sanji''': "That was a close call and nothing more!"
--> '''Zoro''': "No argument here."

--> '''Nami''': "[[{{Squee}} Wah!]] She's so sexy! If she were my secretary, I'd be happy! [[StupidSexyFlanders Wait, I'm not a guy!]]"

*** Once wasn't enough for Toei apparently and in second return of Foxy, the recurring villain shoots his beam that puts anyone in slow motion. Zoro shoulders Nami over so she can avoid it, but Sanji angry that Zoro is treating Nami roughly charges at him but then they are both hit by the slow-slow beam. Unfortunately Sanji's face is falling directly onto Zoro's face and the pair are helpless to the situation (pictured above) just before any contact happens it cuts away to Chopper who shudders leading to Robin asking him what is sensing. The camera cuts back to Zoro and Sanji panting, heads together and trying to make it clear what ever happend or ''nearly happend'' was nothing while DeathGlare(ing) each other.

* Let's not forget the other Donquixote brother, with whom Law shares a hefty dose of FoeYay with. While ItsPersonal for both of them, it's more like the two are two are stuck in TheMasochismTango. With some of Doflamingo's actions, it seems as he's [[NotGoodWithRejection insanely bad with rejection]] and [[GreenEyedMonster jealous]] of ''[[MurderTheHypotenuse anyone]]'' who Law's close to.

** Nothing seems to piss Doffy off more than Law's [[UndyingLoyalty dedication to his deceased brother]] or [[ImaginaryLoveTriangle whenever Law mentions Luffy]]. Law's been on the end of a few CurbStompBattle, gunshots, and has even [[spoiler: lost an arm]] for pressing those [[BerserkButton Berserk Buttons]].

** After seeing the "Coraźon" on the back of Law's coat, he flips out about that and the name of Law's crew, realizing the the naming wasn't because of Law's position on the Heart Seat (which we learn he is still very pissed about when he shoots Law in the gut) but rather dedication to his brother. He starts [[DisproportionateRetribution pumping Law's back full of lead bullets]] specifically to destroy the letters. Considering Doflamingo's mentioned before if it hadn't been for his brother being a major SpannerInTheWorks then Law would've been his new right hand, him shouting skyward that "Your curse has been broken now!!" [[spoiler: after he thinks he's killed Law]] and calling the manga chapter "The Heart's Curse" makes him sound more like the [[WomanScorned Man Scorned]] in the SiblingTriangle.
