7[[WMG: Raftel has a large antimagnet.]]
8That's why no one can find it. The log pose doesn't point towards it.

10[[WMG: It's a myth that you can't eat more than one devil fruit]]
11We've never actually seen anybody consume more than one fruit, except Blackbeard (offscreen) and he survived. You probably just get deadly sick or something, and if you know how to deal with it, you can survive it.
12* Almost impossible. Blackbeard didn't eat another fruit (How can one eat a fruit that has already been eaten decades ago?), he simply absorbed its powers. If there was indeed a chance, however unlikely, that one may survive if they "knew how to deal with it", there would have been at least one other example, and it's too big a deal to be glossed over.
13** Once Whitebeard died, the fruit would have spawned nearby, duh. Blackbeard did the sensible thing and brought a crate of fruits with him. Hell, even if he does have some magical absorbing ability, bringing a crate of fruit is just pure logic. It's a war, lots of devil fruit users were gonna die. Easiest way to get a hold of bunch of devil fruits ever. So easy that blackbeard doesn't want other people to copy him, hence the blanket as a smokescreen. Like when Luffy went back to marineford, everyone were wondering the meaning of ringing the bell 48 times, when in reality the tattoo was what mattered.
14*** Devil Fruits don't spawn "nearby" when a user dies; all that's been confirmed in the series is that they reappear "somewhere".
15
16[[WMG: The "Idiot pirate" whom the navy was going to sell the Ope Ope fruit to is Kaido]]
17Or someone hired by him.
18If, as many have speculated, Kaido's immortality comes from the sacrifice of a Ope Ope fruit user, then it stands to reason that another Ope user could remove it again.
19When the navy caught wind that Kaido wanted to kill himself with it, they were all "you go knock yourself out brother!" and arranged the trade immediately.
20Since then, Kaido has bought up fruit after fruit in a desperate attempt to find the fruit again.
21
22[[WMG: D stands for Demonstrator]]
23Making it a pun on demons being "Enemies of god".
24
25[[WMG: Blackbeard taking powers is only possible from the Yami Yami no mi's Awakening]]
26From what we know about Awakenings so far, they seem to involve breaking whatever boundaries and limitations the Devil Fruit's once had; Zoans simply become bigger and stronger than they otherwise could have and Paramecia's like Doflamingo's are no longer limited to where they can produce their substance. Likewise, Teach's Awakening empowered his ability to "suck anything into himself", and this is how he's able to absorb even Devil Fruit abilities. This being unique to the Dark Dark fruit would also fit Marco's quote that Teach has a "special body" that allows him to do that (I think it goes something like this: Kill the user with a fruit nearby for the power to flow into, and then absorb the power right out of the fruit without eating it). This also brings up another WMG...
27
28[[WMG: Awakenings are relatively unique/specific to each Devil Fruit]]
29When Luffy Awakens the Gum Gum Fruit, it may not involve turning his environment into rubber like Doflamingo did with strings. Doflamingo's Awakening specifically involved that because of the nature of his Paramecia; it's a substance production type. Luffy's Paramecia on the other hand, a body-modifying type rather than a substance producer, will have a different gimmick. Also, this uniqueness may be relative; Zoan Awakenings will always involve becoming a huge monster because Zoan Fruits are relatively all similar to each other. Paramecia Awakenings, like the fruits themselves compared to Zoans, can be much more diverse.
30
31[[WMG: Kaya isn't ill. Kuro poisoned her]]
32The first time we see her, she says she feels fine. Then Kurohadol gives her some "medicine", and a few scenes later, she's coughing. Sure, we're meant to think that she's coughing because Kurahadol and Usopp got into a fight and it upset her... But there's another darker explanation. Kuro was poisoning her giving her tiny doses every day. Notice that later Kurohadol enters with a meal, and Kaya says "I don't want to eat. It doesn't taste good."
33
34If he was poisoning her meal every day, then of course it wouldn't taste good. By using small doses, he could make it seem as though she was merely falling ill naturally, and when she eventually died, no one would investigate.
35
36Of course, the weakness of this theory is that if this is the case, then Kuro wouldn't have needed to do the whole "pirate invasion" plot. However, WordOfGod is that Kuro is the smartest character in the East Blue, and that pirate invasion wasn't really something glimmering with brilliance. Maybe Kuro's original plan was to poison her slowly, but she grew resistant to the poison over time forcing him to increase the doses, which only made it a matter of time before she discovered that the weird distaste of her food was actually poison.
37
38And remember when he said that "he would've killed Kaya anyway" even if she gave him all her money? Maybe he actually meant "since I've poisoned you and it's only a matter of time before it kills you".
39
40Of course, she's not dead. Once Kuro was gone, she was free to go visit a doctor. And now, she's studying to become a doctor herself. Because Usopp might come home wounded? Or because she realized what Kurohadol had done to her and wanted some way to avoid that in the future, as a way to get over her trauma?
41
42* Inconclusive, but this was adapted into [[Series/OnePiece2023 the live-action series]].
43
44[[WMG:Some event in Brook's past was caused by a member of the Vinsmoke family]]
45About his past before he became a pirate, we only know that he was a soldier in "a certain kingdom"; what if he quit because he didn't manage to protect some royalty from an assassination carried by a Vinsmoke? Alternately, he and his crew may have been mortally poisoned in an unfortunate encounter with the Vinsmokes. Either way, Brook shows to know something he doesn't feel like saying right now.
46
47[[WMG:Zoro hasn't really lost his left eye]]
48It was damaged during the training with Mihawk to the point he must use some care with it, but not irreparably; Zoro simply chooses to keep it closed as part of his own training. Even with his impaired vision, after the Strawhats reunited he's come out clean from his battles, very differently from his usual before the timeskip. Just imagine what he could do [[LetsGetDangerous if he used both eyes]], and he'll probably need it sometime in the future.
49
50[[WMG: The Kogetsu Clan had previously saved Zou from complete annihilation.]]
51The extent at which the Minks were willing to go to defend Raizo suggests nothing less.
52
53[[WMG: Every country in the One Piece World has a Poneglyph]]
54* Then why didn't we see a Poneglyph on Punk Hazard? Every country in the world /had/ a Poneglyph maybe?
55
56[[WMG: The Poneglyph Jinbei and Wadatsumi recovered is the final Road Poneglyph.]]
57After all, it was found after Wadatsumi chucked some underwater ruins onto dry land. I doubt Jinbei and Wadatsumi will stay together, but even so, Jinbei could (if he knows how) make a copy of the Poneglyph's contents for Robin to read when he meets the Straw Hats again.
58* The final Road Poneglyphs are red though, so while it could be hidden in the manga, it would be problematic when made into anime, so I doubt it. The part about Jinbeu making a copy though, that sounds believable. I hope he does.
59
60[[WMG: The final Road Poneglyph is hidden in Mariejois.]]
61It seems like it would make sense story-wise. There's been a lot of buildup about Mariejois, so it's probable that the strawhats are going to visit there sometime.
62* Extremely unlikely. The very reason why the Straw Hats passed by Fishman Island is precisely because the only other route was through Mariejois, a route that only selected civilian ships may take. Plus, even if they could have passed by Mariejois, it's likely too heavily protected to be worth it, and there's no reason (or way, for that matter) for them to backtrack to it.
63
64[[WMG: Poneglyphs are actually P-1 glyphs]]
65One Piece, One P, P-one, p-1... Given that hundred of years have passed, it makes sense that language have changed. Going out further on a limb, who wants to bet that One Piece was originally fully known, and that One Piece is in itself a code name? After the void century, people were forbidden from speaking about it... but people did anyway, in secret, which is why the myth still lives on, though in the form of a mysterious fairy tale that nobody knows the entire picture of.
66
67[[WMG: Law will be the Whitebeard to Luffy's Gold Roger]]
68Both Law and Whitebeard were/are great friends and rivals to their generations' respective Pirate Kings but don't have the same level of ambition as the latter. Whitebeard only ever wanted a family and never went after the One Piece while Law only wanted to avenge Rocinante/Corazon and has yet to express any desire of being the Pirate King.
69** The positions and personalities are reversed though Law's got the nastier temper and doesn't seem much of a people person but Luffy's got the number of allies and the ambition
70** Plus there's that smile on his face as he's walking away from Rebecca in response to Luffy's declaration of future kingship. Like "Man... This guy."
71
72[[WMG:Bonney and Urouge will join Luffy and Law's alliance.]]
73After all, they seem to be the only Supernovas that go solo for now, and Luffy and Law will need all the help they can gather to defeat Kaido and Big Mom. My bet is that they'll start off as villains, then pull off a HeelFaceTurn first, before being convinced to join the alliance.
74** Might be very likely especially if Urounge is a Bilkan and finds out that Luffy defeated Enel the man who wiped them all out.
75** Bonney is also likely because she said that she "would never forgive Blackbeard" and after the crushing defeat she suffered before the timeskip she'll realize that who better to ally with than another D. who hates Blackbeard just as much as her.
76*** As of Egghead, Bonney has allied with the Straw Hats while Urouge is nowhere to be seen; this is well after Luffy's alliance with Law (and Kid) has dispersed though.
77
78[[WMG: Robin will be captured again, eventually]]
79While I think it'll be a ''much'' briefer affair than the whole Enies Lobby situation, it's possible Robin might be taken by one of the Emperors seeing as how she's the last piece to the puzzle if they want to find One Piece. In any case, I felt strong "WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong" vibes when the crew declared they'd never let her get taken...
80* Considering CP-0 are in Wano trying capture her, it’s likely.
81
82[[WMG: Shanks has the final Road Poneglyph]]
83He found it long ago and keeps it hidden, waiting for someone worthy of getting it. After the Strawhats will beat Big Mom and Kaido and get the two Poneglyphs in their possession, it will be finally time for him and his crew to test them.
84
85[[WMG: Zunisha is Jack.]]
86* What? Jossed.
87** I'll introduce another stretch. It's stated that Zunisha has committed a crime, which could've involve the creation of the Zou Zou no Mi in some way. So maybe the fact that Jack came to Zou was a LaserGuidedKarma?
88
89[[WMG: Zunisha will eventually die]]
90Now that Momonosuke has been shown to be able to issue commands to the colossal elephant, it's possibile that the entirety of Zou will be transported to Wano to aid in the efforts against Kaidou and the Shogun. However, either by Jack - we probably haven't seen the last of him - or just because of the incredible effort, Zunisha will be mortally wounded and/or fatigued, its last wish for the Minks to evacuate before it collapses; they will be probably welcomed to settle into a newly-opened Wano.
91Since Madame Shirley's prophecy back on Fishman Island, there has been a consistent theme of leaving isolation: Fishman Island will be destroyed - either for real or symbolically - and the sea people will go to the surface, Wano will open up to the outside world... so the Minks leaving their millennial isolation and integrating with humans feels like another step in that direction.
92** The words spoken by the goat Mink at the beginning of chapter 822 seem to further support this theory.
93
94[[WMG: A member of the Vinsmoke family has the Nagi Nagi no Mi]]
95Doflamingo seems like the type to keep a fruit on him at all times just in case he happens to kill a Devil Fruit user, and who better to sell a fruit that makes the user project a field of silence to than a family of assassins?
96* Fruits don't respawn in the nearest available fruit - they respawn *somewhere* in the World.
97
98[[WMG:Pluton, Uranus and Poseidon aren't the only ancient weapons.]]
99They're merely the only ones that are known to exist. Maybe more surviving weapons from the Void Century are still dormant in some way, whose existence, revealed by Poneglyphs, is either kept super-secret by the World Government or downright unknown to even them.
100
101[[WMG:Vivi will be rejoining the crew]]
102...either as a permanent member or as a member in the Straw Hat Grand Fleet. Given that she's now on her way to Reverie with Chaka and Carue right as Kaido is about to unleash hell on the world, it seems like they'll be caught up in the battle, forcing them to become involved in some manner; since they're obviously not going to join Kaido, the logical choice is that they'll fight beside Luffy.
103* Possible, but IMO unlikely. Although she is a close friend of the Straw Hats, Vivi remains a princess; leaving her country behind and losing her good favors with the World Government might not be the best course of action for Alabasta unless something ''extremely'' serious were to happen. Not to mention, strong though she may be, she's still a mostly non-combatant, so it's unlikely she'll be strong enough to keep up with the crew. But her temporarily traveling with the Straw Hats for another few arcs is possible.
104** Since Vivi is now a fugitive, she might rejoin the crew if she comes across them again.
105
106[[WMG: Vivi and Cobra will find and awaken Pluton.]]
107And they'll get to use it in the final battle against Blackbeard; officially posing as a neutral third party, but secretly helping the Straw Hats, much like Hancock in Marineford.
108** [[spoiler: at least half-jossed, after the events of the Reverie...]]
109
110[[WMG: Someone will crash the Reverie.]]
111Going with my above WMG, Big Mom could already be on her way to Mariejois with intentions of crashing in while the Reverie is going on, to capture most of the kings and nobles there with only a select few actually managing to avoid capture (Vivi, Rebecca and Mansherry, Stelly...). Of course, if this indeed happens, it could just as well be Kaido.
112** Jossed at least the part with Big Mom crashing the Reverie since she is still on Whole Cake Island and shows no sign of leaving until the Wedding is over. Jury still out if anyone else will however.
113** Depending on your definition of "crashing", the revolutionary army using the reverie as cover to infiltrate Mariejois might count.
114
115[[WMG: Ryuuma and Flare's respective descendents will make an appearance in the Wano Country arc.]]
116Whether they will play a major role, or just as a cameo and reference to ''Monsters'', it seems possible that they'll appear (At least for Ryuuma, I'm not so sure about Flare).
117* Ryuma's descendant did make an appearance in Wano... and in nearly every arc before that, since he's [[ConnectedAllAlong Zoro]].
118
119[[WMG: Cobra is faking his illness]]
120Related to the above: his illness is just an act he's been preparing for a while. He's intended to ask the World Government some inconvenient questions for a long time, and he knows he may become a target for that. In a gamble to expose them, he's making everyone think he's very sick and so a very easy target. Most probably at least Chaka and Pell are on it; Vivi may or may not know, while Igaram is kept in the dark.
121
122[[WMG: The Revolutionary Army vs Blackbeard fight...]]
123[[spoiler:Ended in a tie with both groups going their separate ways, but the battle was so destructive that the base got destroyed in the process.]]
124
125[[WMG: Carrot's inclusion in the "Sanji Rescue Team" is at least partly due to editorial mandate]]
126Just while the latest chapters of the Zou arc were running their course, ''{{WesternAnimation/Zootopia}}'' was released to great success, also in East Asia. Oda had several ideas for the Minks introduced so far, and was pondering who among them would ultimately accompany Luffy's group (the sequence of volunteers in chapter 822 is a nod to that) but, seeing the success of that movie starring a cute female rabbit, editors pushed for him to choose the cute female rabbit Mink.
127* Not impossible, but IMO unlikely. It's possible that Oda was inspired by the movie, but considering how long in advance a mangaka must plan events ahead, I think it's simply a coincidence. Besides, I don't see why editors would push Oda to include Carrot like that, since Chopper fills the KidAppealCharacter role marvelously already.
128
129[[WMG:Jack is a Wotan.]]
130Despite being deep underwater, having a Devil Fruit and looking human, Jack is still conscious and alive (albeit unable to actually move), and has fishman traits. The only possible explanation IMO is that he's a Wotan, since they are half-giant, half-fishmen.
131* Jack is a giant grouper fishman.
132
133[[WMG: Carrot will eat a reborn Yuki Yuki no Mi]]
134Disclaimer: this theory was not originally conceived by myself but by youtuber [[https://www.youtube.com/user/Rdilui2 Rogersbase]].
135We know that when the user of a Devil Fruit dies, such fruit is immediately reborn somewhere, ready to give its power to someone else. So, since Monet is most certainly dead - we saw her heart being stabbed, after all - there must be a new Yuki Yuki no Mi somewhere. One of Monet's attacks consisted in a storm of bunny-shaped snow projectiles; Carrot has snow-white fur. By eating that fruit, she'd become a literal Snow Bunny! And after Sabo we wouldn't be surprised if the power of a fruit was passed to another character.
136Differently from Rogersbase, however, until we'll know for sure about how they work, I don't buy into the theory that Devil Fruits regenerate into a normal fruit (at least of the same type) that is nearby when the user dies, which leads to the idea that the new Yuki Yuki no Mi is among Nami's tangerines. I'd rather think the new fruit is in the hands of some underworld people and will be brought by the Vinsmokes among the gifts for Sanji's marriage. When Luffy and his group will infiltrate Big Mom's territory, they'll first look for food and Carrot won't even realize having eaten the Devil Fruit; she may fall in water and be rescued but, since she may have never learned to swim, nobody including herself will suspect, until a dangerous situation will make her new powers manifest.
137* Not impossible, but a pretty huge stretch, especially in this manner. Devil Fruits ''do'' regenerate into a nearby fruit when its user dies; when Smiley died, his power was transferred immediately to a nearby apple, as Caesar Clown had placed a bunch of them close by for this very reason. It's impossible to tell until Devil Fruits are explained in greater detail, but Monet's fruit was more likely reincarnated into another of those apples than into one of Nami's tangerines, since the apples were closer to her than the Sunny was. Besides, Nami would have most likely found out earlier if one of her tangerines had turned into a Devil Fruit, since the trip from Punk Hazard to Dressrosa took a few days, and she remained on the Sunny most of the Dressrosa arc.
138
139[[WMG: The Vinsmokes have access to at least one source of Devil Fruits]]
140We still don't know how and where the Fruits originate, if there are plants they grow on, or places where they are transported by the sea (especially if Raftel was truly their original place)... but the Vinsmoke family somehow has access to one of those places. They sell the fruits they get from there through the criminal underworld they are connected to, so that some have also ended up outside the Grand Line, but the Vinsmokes also furnish the Marine and World Government at times, which would explain why so many high-ranking Marine officials are DF users, and why the Vinsmokes seem to have so much influence on the WG.
141
142[[WMG:Sora is real.]]
143The Marines only took his fights against Germa 66 and twisted them into Marine propaganda, much like how Montblanc Noland's adventures were twisted into a tale of buffoonery and lies. The real Sora is still around, or at least has existed in the past, with his fights against Germa 66 affecting the present.
144* AllMythsAreTrue, it won't be a surprise if he was real. The real WMG is, who?
145** Sengoku
146** Garp, he was the hero of marines after all.
147** Maybe it's a she. One Piece needs more ActionGirl.
148** The user of the same DF used by Dragon. Sora = Sky, it's not farfetched since Dragon seems to have Air/Wind/Weather control ability.
149
150[[WMG: The double six in Germa 66 may have been referring to the Vinsmoke family's unique eyebrows]]
151Which would make Sanji a natural opposite of his own family since birth, for his eyebrows are inverse of 66.
152* Major credit going to this theory with the reveal that at least two of Sanji's siblings do indeed have the "66" eyebrows compared to his inverted ones.
153* Possibly Jossed. Details are scarce at the moment, but Judge mentioned something about the Germa ruling over the North Blue for only "66 short days", so it's possible that's where the name really comes from.
154
155[[WMG: Brook will be mistaken for Sora]]
156He can run on water, an ability that's attributed to Sora too. At least Vito, who seems very knowledgeable about the Sora comic strip, may be shocked to see that not only Germa 66 is real.
157
158[[WMG: Not only Sora really existed, but there's still at least one living descendant]]
159Differently from Montblanc Cricket, who wanted to vindicate Noland's name, this one doesn't feel he/she's up to the name, regardless of whether all the feats attributed to him are real.
160
161[[WMG: Sanji inherently has flame powers.]]
162Sanji's family seems to have a theme going on. His elder sister's "Poison Pink." Maybe his ability to flame on is a family thing?
163* Possible as [[ShockAndAwe Niji has electrical powers]], and TheReveal in chapter 840; all 5 Vinsmoke children are meant to be genetically engineered SuperSoldier, however Sanji`s special DNA was inactive in childhood for some reason.
164
165[[WMG: The events in Sora, Warrior of the Sea were switched around from the truth.]]
166In that while the comic portrays the Marines as the good guys and Germa 66 as the bad guys, the truth is reversed: the good guys are actually ''Germa 66''. The comic is simply based on an incident or series of incidents that could prove disastrous to the Marines' reputation if the truth were to leak out, so they made this comic as a means of hiding what really happened. As for why the Germa 66 are apparently evil nowadays, I can think of two explanations: either DarkIsNotEvil, or ThenLetMeBeEvil.
167
168[[WMG: Don Krieg is a former admiral Of Germa 66]]
169Don Krieg was one of the admirals of Germa 66's navy forces as well as the weapon specialist for the army.One day he went rogue took a navy ship, along with it's men and vast weaponry and head to the Grand Line to find One Piece and become Pirate King, until days later his entire ship was suddenly slice in half as though by giant, invisible sword and swallowed by a giant whirlpool. Krieg was drifting at sea on a lifeboat until he was picked up by a marine ship. The pirate [[TheFarmerandtheViper repaid this act of kindness by killing the captain, hijacking the ship, to resume his conquest and pillaging]], where he eventually built his armada of 5000 men and head out to the Grand Line once again....only to be worfed once again by the same mysterious forces.
170* Doubt it, pretty sure the Germa Kingdom only allows Vinsmoke blood to be commanders in their army. And besides, Krieg is way too weak to be an admiral of Germa 66 seeing as how he couldn't even handle a beginning-of-series Luffy.
171
172[[WMG: Totland arc is a shout out to Anime/SpiritedAway]]
173* Big Mam is a CompositeCharacter : Her appearance is like Yubaba/the evil witch. Just like Boh, she acted like big crybaby. Just like No Face, she is consumed with greed and cannot helped herself.
174* There will be a Sen character, which probably will be Sanji and Chopper. Just like Sen entered the contract with the witch, Sanji will eventually be employed as a cook.
175* Just like Sen healing Haku with the medicine, Chopper will heal Big Mam by putting the medicine in her food. Alternatively, it could be that Chopper getting eaten on purpose and healing her from the inside. Big Mam will rage during the 'healing' process, while Luffy and others tried to stop her.
176* There is WMG on Spirited Away page saying Yubaba and Zeniba is the same person. Once she was healed, Big Mam's personality would be more like Zenibaba, a kind old woman.
177* Bonus point if there is a SecretTestOfCharacter in some point of the story. Just like No Face tried to offer golds to Sen, someone will try to offer golds to Nami, and she will refuse.
178** Alternatively, it already did. Just like Sen didn't look back at the end, Luffy kept moving forwards. Sanji was tempted by a beautiful girl, but he refused the wedding.
179* More parallel: Just like Yubaba asking for the names, Big Mom's asking for the souls.
180
181[[WMG: The One Piece is exactly that. One Piece.]]
182But what is it one piece of? Either the true ultimate devil fruit, or the Rio Poneglyph.
183Either way, there's 6 pieces, one of which is found on Raftel, and the other 5 are found on Islands similar to Raftel, with one each in the North Blue, East Blue, etc, and the last piece being either on an undiscovered island in the Grand Line or in the All Blue.
184* Whatever it is, I guess there will be a TitleDrop when they do find One Piece.
185
186[[WMG: There is a Fourth category of Devil Fruit]]
187All of the Devil Fruits in the fourth category are related to Haki in some way, with only four total fruits in the category, one for each type of Haki, with the Fruit names being; the Haki-Haki no Mi Model: Kenbunshoku, the Haki-Haki no Mi Model: Busoshoku, the Haki-Haki no Mi Model: Haoshoku, and the Haki-Haki no Mi Model: Ultimate. The main thing preventing these from potentially being Paramecia types is that they have their own unique set of weaknesses and only effect the user's Haki capabilities, as each one would strengthen their respective type of Haki, while the Haki-Haki no Mi Model: Ultimate combines the effects of all three into one fruit. The unique downside would be that just EATING one of these three shortens the user's lifespan, [[FourIsDeath and the ultimate (fourth) one would greatly shorten the users life.]]
188
189[[WMG: Jajji has the same eyebrows as Sanji]]
190Sharing this theory from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqLCG0KLD9c Rogersbase on Youtube.]] Basically, the idea is that the true heir/purest member/destined leader of the Germa 66 is actually born with the @_ @_ eyebrows instead of the _@ _@ brows; Jajji's eyebrows being covered by the helmet is Oda's way of hiding it. Now, I believe that Sanji had the most pressure placed on him as a child due to this fact, and it's one of the reasons he left. After all, there has to be ''something'' that Jajji did specifically to Sanji alone and not his siblings since the others seem to have no issues with him.
191* The eyebrow part isn't confirmed yet, but the rest is jossed to hell. Sanji hates his family's guts because he was repeatedly bullied and beaten up as a child due to being the black sheep of the family, and a disgrace to his family name. So much for the "true heir" theory.
192** Don't rush with completely jossing this one! Sanji was born as one of quadruplets - even though he's been aligned a number 3 (probably the birth order), he has rights to challenge his brothers to the position. But as with the eyebrows, maybe when Jajji realised that Sanji is the 'true heir' due to his eyebrows, he proclaimed his intention to his brothers, who started to bully him viciously because of jealousy. Jajji did not help Sanji, because he wanted him to learn 'fight his own fights'. It's also mentioned he trained him with sword and put him in iron mask in the dungeon probably to 'prime' him as a warrior. (Yeah, crazy guy thought he's doing the right thing or something...)
193*** But the problem here is "intention". Jajji sees his son as nothing more than a means to an end, a tool he used to ally with Big Mom because he didn't want to marry one of his other precious sons to her; hell, he doesn't even view Sanji as a son at all. If Sanji really was the "true heir" to the Vinsmoke family (whatever that means), Jajji and Sanji's brothers wouldn't have been such assholes to him; they simply would have been harsh but somewhat loving, to prevent him from rebelling and thus waste his potential. Besides, Sanji doesn't even want anything to do with his family or the Germa, let alone rule over them. Even if he really was the "true heir", he wouldn't act upon it.
194*** The point of this WMG is that Judge has the same eyebrow as Sanji, since Judge lost his helmet in the latest chapter we will know soon enough. I personally believe this to be the case, Judge to me is a character much more complex than what was shown on the surface, his talk of a 300 hundred years dream/grudge of his people tells me that his ambition was not his alone, the idea might very well have been beaten into his lineage by his ancestors and pass down from one king to the next through ruthless discipline from father to son. Being a man of a proud lineage yet resort to modifying his children and to achieve their dream must have taken remarkable resolve on his part, maybe his discovery of lineage factors convinced him that his lineage is not the genetic superior that he and his ancestors believed to be, then he convinced himself that sacrificing everything: emotions, morals, and even their very lineage is the only way they will come out on top in this world ruled by the strong, thus the Vinsmokes swallow their pride as rulers, work as assassins and dogs of war, walking the earth with no land to call their own, even changing who they are through modification and cloning to bide time and gather strength to one day regain what they've lost. Being heavily modified, it is very possible that the other Vinsmoke children resemble Judge, a man of pure blood, less and less, while Sanji, by the merit of being unaltered, look closest to Judge. This would also explain why Judge hates Sanji so much, for Sanji is the symbol of the sacrifice Judge had chosen to make, not only that but Sanji being the weakest of his sibling proved (seemingly) that his bloodline in its purest form is indeed inferior, and that Judge made the right call in sacrificing what he was for his dream. Sanji will prove Judge wrong, not only by becoming the strongest of the Vinsmoke line, but by achieving more than his ancestor's vision by holding firm onto his humanity and dream, thus embodying the truest form of strength envisioned in Vinsmoke's own ideal.

196[[WMG: Sanji's brothers are cyborgs]]
197Yonji was being fixed in some sort of mechanical workshop rather than a hospital, so it's likely he's got some sort of mechanical components to him. His facial injury from Sanji was also very inhuman looking; it looked more like dented metal than broken bones. As for the other ones, when Sanji punched Ichiji as a child, it made a "clang" sound effect, which could only mean that he must have metal plating under his skin. As for why Sanji himself isn't a cyborg, it's simple; Judge saw he was weak as child and chose not to have him modified since he thought he'd be "useless" anyway.
198* ''Very close'', but no dice. TheReveal in chapter 840 all 5 Vinsmoke children are meant to be genetically engineered [[SuperSoldier Super Soldiers]], however Sanji`s special DNA is inactive for some reason.
199** Yonji is definitely a cyborg, but that's just his arm. [The rest of the Vinsmoke siblings' enhancements are biological in nature.

201[[WMG: Pudding will fight Reiju, and Nami will fight Brulee]]
202This of course is assuming that Pudding was faking being weak to the Straw Hats and is actually fairly powerful. Anyway, regardless, she'll be on their side eventually and (since I still believe she's joining the crew) will need somebody to fight with. So... enter Reiju. How ironic would it be if Reiju, who considers Pudding a "sweetheart", ends up getting her ass kicked by her? And if Pudding is truly a good person, she'll take offense to Reiju's behavior involving Sanji and want to fight her. Then there's Nami who hasn't gotten a 1 on 1 fight in about 10 years. She's long overdue, and though I also think she'd be a good match for Reiju symbolically, I believe Nami will fight Brulee. Since Nami can become invisible and make mirages, she should be the only one capable of getting past Brulee's tricks.
203* Confirmed for Nami fighting Brulee, we have yet to see about Pudding.
204* Given that Reiju seems to be GoodAllAlong, it's looking less and less likely that she'll be fighting against the heroes.
205** And with the revelation that Pudding is evil, not only is this Jossed, but it's looking like Reiju is going to fight alongside the Straw Hats.
206** Well actually... the reasoning is off yeah... but since Pudding is still against the Vinsmokes is still possible she'll fight Reiju. Hell, technically she already ''has'' fought her as far as we can tell...
207
208[[WMG: The original home island of the Vinsmokes was destroyed by a Buster Call]]
209In a distant past (we are talking many decades, if not a few centuries ago), the World Government or an Admiral ordered the destruction of the island from where the Vinsmokes originated; maybe they thought they had become too powerful in their attempt to reign on the North Blue alone. The royals and at least part of the population managed to save themselves however, and they turned to piracy both for survival and revenge, creating the Germa 66 and its legend over time. A long time later, the World Government readmitted the Vinsmokes, possibly because they got their hands on some secret; they probably offered them a new land too, but the Vinsmokes refused, preferring to be a reign without a stable place. Although they are technically part of the WG today, since they are also admitted to the Reverie, the Vinsmokes still harbor a deep resentment, as Jajji's dream of restoring their power over the North Blue shows, and for this reason they seek an alliance with Big Mom, a pirate Emperor. For this reason, [[ForegoneConclusion after their defeat at the hands of the Straw Hats]], the Vinsmokes may become allies on an EnemyMine ground.

211[[WMG: There isn't just one mink traitor affiliated with Beasts Pirates]]
212On chapter 824 Inuarashi shares with Wanda his fear that there is probably a mink on Zou who helped Jack's ship to reach Zunisha via vivre card as well as peddle informations like Raizou's presence on the wandering island.
213I find kind of weird Wanda and Bariete's exchange in those pages; during the whole Zou arc Bariete has been acting in a pretty suspicious way. He has been seen shivering or reacting in exaggerated ways in more than one occasion and we learn, after Carrot's departure with the Strawhats, how easily he gets bribed with one or two bananas. When he eventually reveals Wanda where Carrot went, his line about the rabbit mink "not wanting to betray Wanda" followed by the dog mink's gesture to shut him up the situation can be pretty much considered suspect.
214Chapter 809's color spread also have three monkeys making the "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" gestures which can be also connected to the code of silence.
215Carrot has a few shady characteristics as well since her first apparition. Together with Wanda she is the only mink seen without bandages or serious wounds after Jack's attack when Luffy's group reaches Zou and she's instantly acting violently against them. On the Thousand Sunny Pedro claims that Carrot is in fact stronger than the Strawhat's average and Chopper states that when Carrot attacks Luffy for eating her carrot "she almost got him" by cutting off his jugular. So she knows exactly what to do to and where to aim to kill someone... She's a rabbit. Rabbits are preys, not predators. Her departure from Zou along with Luffy and friends is pretty weird and mostly unexplained as well.
216If we also point out that Pedro's name is the same as a certain card game along with Jack and Sheepshead and that since his arrival in Totto Land he as been recognized by random or fairly important people (see Tamago) given his mysterious past than we have four suspect minks from Zou.
217* Bonus: this last arc seems to have a few reminders of Enies Lobby's arc given a companion's separation from the crew, Strawhats coming to save him, handcuffs keys to find and an assassin's organization to beat. Enies Lobby has the biggest and, I dare to say, the truest betrayal in the whole One Piece series since every other traitor in the story turned out to be forced to do that or something similar. This betrayal had these new characters sided with the arc's new allies who altogether turned EvilAllAlong.
218* The idea of several Mink traitors from Zou is already unlikely as hell (Even Pekoms was grateful to the Straw Hats for saving Zou, despite being an enemy), but this is especially impossible and farfetched. If Carrot's departure from Zou qualifies as "suspicious" on the grounds of being weird and so-called "unexplained", pretty much every single character in the entire manga is suspicious too. She snuck out of Zou because she wanted to tag along with her friends and saviours, and finally see more of the world than just Zou. Her attacking Luffy when he ate her carrot is a funny quirk (Are we going to consider the Straw Hats suspicious because they keep beating Luffy up?), her and Wanda's lack of wounds is easily explained by them being strong warriors who managed to avoid torture (Are we otherwise considering that every single Mink is suspicious on the grounds of not being injured?), Bariete's behavior is nothing more than character quirks, and Pedro sharing a name with a card game is mere coincidence at this point (Are we going to assume Ace was a member of Jack's pirate crew too?). Even if there is one or more mink traitors, the odds of them being on Zou are unlikely as hell, and the chances of Carrot, Wanda or Bariete being among those traitors is zero.
219* Effectively jossed. The traitor was actually Kanjuro.
220
221[[WMG: A Strawhat will just randomly stumble on the lost Road Poneglyph]]
222A Straw Hat, most likely Luffy himself, will find the lost road poneglyph during the adventure in a totally random way. If I had to guess, I'd say Luffy will probably fall into a cavern or something after his usual destructive shenanigans and BAM, it'll just be sitting right there.
223** It'll probably be Zoro that finds it, the guy got lost in a straight hallway somehow and ended up in the opposite direction. If they're trying to find something that's lost all they should do is tie a string around him and turn him loose.
224This, OR...
225
226[[WMG: Blackbeard will obtain the lost Road Poneglyph first]]
227Thus meaning that Luffy will have no choice but to fight him directly if he wants the One Piece.
228
229[[WMG: Dragon has Uranus]]
230All of the Ancient Weapons have been named after and resemble the powers of Greco-Roman gods. Pluton, named after Pluto, the god of the dead, is a warship capable of sinking islands, causing much death. Poseidon, named after Poseidon, the god of the sea, is able to control the Sea Kings. Uranus was the Primordial that personified the sky, which leads me to believe that Uranus has the ability to control the weather. When Dragon made his first appearance back in Loguetown, the weather spontaneously shifted, which leads me to the conclusion that he was responsible for it, and that he used Uranus to do it.
231* A theorist on Website/YouTube [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fWbXY-yzi8 ShadowFlame]] said the same thing, however, they also pointed out that, during the Lougetown arc in the manga Dragon himself is holding on so not to be blown away by the wind, if he was responsible via devil fruit or haki it would be coming from him, not affecting him, the anime does not show this, instead showing the wind coming from the skies above lougetown.
232
233[[WMG: Kuma might have a connection with the Lineage Factor research headed by Vegapunk and Judge.]]
234He and the Pacifista project have a certain similarities with the Vinsmoke Children and the Germa army, it makes sense for Vegapunk being used by the world government to continue his research after capturing him just like Judge did, but he came to a different conclusion: cyborgs rather than genetically enhanced super soldiers, more stable and easier to control maybe? Kuma could have been a prototype clone who escaped and joined the revolutionaries with the ability to be cybernetically enhanced indefinitely without the risk of rejection, and that the reason why he collaborates with the world government despite hating them with a passion was because he found out that he was a clone and that they were holding all his brothers (the other clones) hostage, so he has to work with the similarly captured Vegapunk to fake compliance until they can figure out how to liberate themselves.
235
236[[WMG: The World Goverments Pacifista`s are clones]]
237As Chapter 840 reveals [[spoiler: [[CloneArmy all Vinsmoke soldiers]] are cloned from their best serving men.]] It is also revealed Judge Vinsmoke [[spoiler: worked with Vegapunk on the project, but the [[LawfulEvil World Government]], stopped their project and arrested Vegapunk]] on the basis that NoManShouldHaveThisPower Being the [[LawfulEvil World Government]], who else thinks the only wanted that power to themselves?
238** Ehh... We've already seen the Pacifista blow up like robots along with a confirmation that they're made from corpses a la Frankenstein's monster. But I guess we'll see.
239*** They were made from corpses? What chapter is this information presented? I must have missed it, thanks in advance.
240*** I can't find the exact chapter, but it's mentioned on the One Piece wiki on the Pacifista article.
241*** I can't find it on the page nor the manga itself, are you sure about this?
242*** Pretty sure, yes. It's mentioned under the Appearance header on the wiki page. But it doesn't matter. We'll most likely see what the manga says about this once we see the Pacifista again.
243*** Ah, found it on the wikia finally, but no citation from either the SBS nor the manga itself, so it is still just assumptions at this point, we shall wait and see.
244
245[[WMG: The Vinsmoke kids are essentially Devil Fruit users, but without the weaknesses]]
246Basically, whatever alterations Judge made to his kids' DNA (called Lineage Factor in universe) is ''exactly'' what a Devil Fruit does to its eater naturally. That's why Niji can produce electricity out of nowhere, and it's the basis of Reiju's powers. So they're like devil fruit users who were created without the need to eat a devil fruit. This also means that they retained the ability to swim and are immune to sea-stone. Finally, this is the truth behind their swirly eyebrows; the reason they look a lot like the spirals on Devil Fruits is because their DNA has been crossed with the powers of the Devils themselves.
247* That would actually make a lot of sense!! If you look at [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iy30CHcyATc/maxresdefault.jpg Mera Mera no Mi]], it's pattern goes the same way as Sanji's eyebrows (who's IncendiaryExponent), wow...
248** And there's another crazy detail in support of this theory in chapter 840!! In 5th panel of a page, young Sanji is reading books - one he holds is about 'Noland the Liar' but the one next to him? 悪魔の実図鑑 - Akuma no Mi Zukan, the Devil Fruit Encyclopaedia! Also they used to belong to his mother...hmm
249
250
251[[WMG: Vinsmoke's Devil Fruit guesses]]
252Each Vinsmokes (except Sanji) ate devil fruit that matches their colorful epithet.
253
254* "Garuda" Jaji ate the Tori Tori no Mi Model Garuda: Judge is a mythical zoan who can transform into the legendary King Of the Birds, the Garuda, with additional abilities such as high-speed flight, enhacne strength, change his size,control fire etc.
255
256* "Poison Pink" Reiju ate the Chou Chou no Mi Model Monarch Butterfly. Reiju can transform into the monarch butterfly, with additional abilities such as flight, and sucking poisonous substance with suffering any side-effects.
257
258* "Sparkling Red" Ichiji ate the Wain Wain no Mi: Ichi can transform,generate and manipulate red wine .
259** Jossed, Ichiji's powers (if they're even from a Devil Fruit at all) revolve around fireworks. Also, his epithet is "Sparking" red, not sparkling. No L.
260
261* "Electric Blue" Niji ate the Biri Biri no Mi: Like [[PsychoElectro Eneru]], Niji can manipulate and generate electricity,listen to sound waves, and ravel thorough conductive materials such as wood or gold, with the only exception that he can only go up to 60 million volts.
262
263* "Winch Green" Yonji ate the Budo Bduo no Mi: Yonji can control plant vines and use them to strangle his opponents to death, similar to a boa constrictor
264** At least one of these is Jossed already. We know that Yonji ''can't'' be a Devil Fruit user (at least not a traditional one) because Reiju kicked him into the ocean and he got out on his own.
265*** Reiju has eaten an unknown Devil Fruit, but the others appear to be non-Devil Fruit users.
266
267[[WMG: We'll learn more about Strawhats background and origin]]
268* After timeskip, we suddenly learned about Luffy's background with his brothers (we don't even know Sabo existed beforehand).
269* We also learned Sanji's backstory in WCI arc (we don't even know his family existed before).
270* Judging by the pattern, we will learn of Zoro's background in Wano arc. Other strawhats extended background :
271** Nami's possible biological parents.
272** Robin's father, whose legacy was continued by Olvia.
273** Franky's parents. He was thrown off from the pirate ship after all.
274** Brook's background before he was a pirate, as a soldier in a certain kingdom.
275** I couldn't think of anything for Chopper or Usopp. I think their backstory is clear, they just need character development.
276*** Chopper might pull something like Usopp in Water Seven... if Luffy contract the same disease that Roger had and he cannot healed him.
277
278[[WMG:Sanji's cool-but-impossible powers will be revealed to be (partly) part of his genetic enhancements]]
279With the stuff such as igniting his whole body or running across the skies, Oda just wants to throw you off by passing them as "ridiculously funny" due to their supposed origins (i.e remembering his time in "hell" and being constantly running around respectively). But then he is revealed to have been genetically enhanced, although he didn't perform well in childhood and thus never show any special abilities from it. It can be assumed that he's simply a (very) late bloomer that needs the "right" kind of environment and training for his ability to manifest. Suddenly those ridiculous powers seem not as ridiculous.
280* They aren't impossible though. We've seen that "normal" people can sky walk as far back as Water 7 with [=CP9=].
281** Jossed; Sanji is the only Vinsmoke child ''without'' any enhancements, [[spoiler: because his mother took a drug while pregnant with Sanji and his three brothers that reversed them, but it only worked on Sanji]].
282
283[[WMG: Viola's pregnant with Doflamingo's child]]
284Based on SBS which imply there might be a relationship between the two.
285* Probably Jossed. She reappears in the Reverie Arc and is visibly not pregnant, at least.
286
287[[WMG: The Calm-Calm Fruit (Nagi-Nagi no mi) is the counter to the [[PersonOfMassDestruction tremor-tremor]] fruit]]
288Since this fruit stops sound waves, from entering or leving its bubble, it can stop tremors as they are basically the same type of wave. It would protect the user or a small area from the shockwaves. Similar to Luffys [[RubberMan Rubber]] being [[ElementalRockPaperScissors immune]] To Eneru's [[ShockAndAwe Lightning]] .
289
290[[WMG: Sanji's the strongest out of all his siblings.]]
291Maybe his power took longer to develop, maybe it's because he needed love to grow and not abuse, but perhaps his genetic potential is the same, or even greater than his siblings?
292* Probably confirmed, although it's hard to say since he didn't end up fighting them seriously.
293** If this ''is'' true, it's probably because Sanji's been spending time on the Grand Line constantly fighting, while his siblings took it relatively easy in the North Blue.
294
295[[WMG: Oars, Oars Jr., Kaido And Gecko Moriah are members of the same race]]
296* How did Moriah know where to find Oars's body?
297** Also, so far they're the only humanoid characters that have horns and sharp teeth,
298** Size of the horns may be a species trait that denotes strength or potential
299** though this troper admits, maybe Moriah is a bit of a stretch.
300
301[[WMG: Randolph is Pedro's Homie]]
302It was revealed in chapter 849 that Pedro lost 50 years of his lifespan to Big Mom. I theorize that Randolph is that homie thanks to the amount of focus he has as a character, his skill, and the fact he was mistaken for a mink. However Randolph cannot perform [[ShockAndAwe the Mink's Electro]], my best guess is that this is because his body is not that of a Mink, or a call back to Thriller Bark, a strong shadow [[GlassCannon needs]] a strong body to live up to it's full potential.
