History WMG / OnePieceSilly

[[WMG: The World Government is run by [[Franchise/MetalGear The Patriots]]]]
It would fit because of their similar desire to control information throughout the world and bring about "peace". The Void Century is the 100-year period that it took for the Patriots to reduce the world from the state of technology seen in the Franchise/MetalGear games to the low-tech seen in the One Piece Universe. They did this largely so that they could more easily control information without the threat of the Internet. They used their mass-produced Metal Gear RAYs and a large number of nukes to blast the world into fragments and screw with the world's climate to create the Grand Line and the many islands throughout the world. Isolated islands were easier to control than unified countries connected by the internet. They genetically engineered the Transponder Snails themselves. They then circulated false information about the history of the planet and did their best to eliminate any information of the tech level that used to exist. However, the events of the Void Century were too dangerous for anyone to go into, so they left it blank.

Or, depending on your viewpoint, Shanks ''won'' that bet.

[[WMG: The whole reason Luffy, and not Shanks, ate the Gomu Gomu no Mi is because [[spoiler:the fruit's latent spirit]] won a bet with Shanks]]
Or, depending on your viewpoint, ''lost'' a bet with Shanks.

And I'm not talking about the ones in Film: Red. We will then get to see a fight between Luffy and May, while Zoro crosses swords with a ''different'' Johnny.

[[WMG: The Straw Hat Pirates will eventually meet with the [[VideoGame/GuiltyGear Jellyfish Pirates.]]

That or Mihawk will die this way, or Zoro will kill Mihawk by knocking him down a flight of stairs.

That or Mihawk will die this way.

It includes Mihawk as Dracula (obviously), Doc Q as Death, Moria as Legion (they both utilize multiple dead bodies), Jabra as the WolfMan (again, obviously), Buggy as Dullahan (the HeadlessHorseman), Hancock as Medusa, Kuma as FrankensteinsMonster, Dalton as the Minotaur, Alvida as the Succubus, Pica as the Golem, and Thriller Bark as Castlevania itself (Mihawk's castle is creepy but otherwise too normal for the role). And the one in the Belmont role (or its equivalent) is...Paulie.

Maggie Smith as Dr. Kureha

When they're not mysteriously lurking in the shadows plotting the suppression of the world, they're politely sipping tea and complaining about the [[LaResistance weather]].
