*** Even weirder because in the previous arc, Luffy decided not to believe Nami when she tried to betray them. Nami didn't want to, but she really meant to betray them and leave the crew, and he disregarded because he believed in her. This might not even be an example of Early Installment Weirdness, and may just be weirdness.

** Blackbeard makes his first actual appearance in a bar enjoying the cherry pie Luffy hates and hating the ale Luffy enjoys. They quickly take offense to each other's taste in food and try to have an impromptu eating contest. He later encourages Luffy to keep following his dreams because dreams never die. All of this foreshadows that he and Luffy are NotSoDifferent, but the ways they are different will be in very major ways.

*** And hammered ''further'' in the Whole Cake Island Arc, where there are 3 major deaths, Pedro, in virtue of his HeroicSacrifice to let the Straw Hats escape Perospero's trap; Charlotte Opera, killed by Big Mom herself in her mad rampage; and Pound, who was killed by Oven [[PapaWolf as a decoy to let Pez, Chiffon, and Bege live]]. Safe to say, Oda has learnt his lesson with Pell and done his best to avert this trope wherever he can.

** The end of Dressrosa reveals that Eustass Kid, Basil Hawkins, and Scratchment Apoo and their crews have formed a pirate alliance to take down Shanks. [[spoiler:The Wano arc, though, reveals that this didn't last very long before falling apart, as Apoo was TheMole for Kaido the whole time and screwed the other two over, and then Hawkins agreed to work for Kaido to save his own life while Kid refused to submit and was defeated and captured.]]
** Luffy has a more genuine example of this in Tottoland with [[spoiler:another Worst Generation member, Capone Bege. The two parties are reluctant and not fond of each other, since Luffy is made at Bege for shooting Pekoms and none of the crew trusts him, while Bege is wary of the Straw Hats' general WildCard status, but they both want =to ruin the wedding ceremony Big Mom is putting on (the Straw Hats want to save Sanji, the Firetanks want to assassinate Big Mom). While they definitely bicker a lot and don't become friends after the alliance ends, they don't betray each other either and even work together pretty well, and at least part on reasonably good terms]].
** One of world-shattering proportions forms in the Wano arc between [[spoiler:Kaido and Big Mom. After battling with each other for a while, they calm down and decide to work together to find One Piece and TakeOverTheWorld, reasoning that [[InevitableMutualBetrayal they can always go back to trying to kill each other once they've succeeded]].

** On Punk Hazard, Luffy enters into an alliance with [[spoiler:Trafalgar Law, who had done a FreakyFridayFlip on several members of his crew mere chapters earlier]]. Luffy doesn't really see it this way, though; he thinks [[spoiler:Law]] is a stand-up fellow regardless of the mishap (which he found absolutely hilarious). The rest of his crew sees it for what it is.

* FamousLastWords: The Great Pirate Era is built around Gol D. Roger's final words at his execution, challenging other pirates to search the Grand Line for his greatest treasure: the One Piece.
** Whitebeard's last words, confirming the existence of the One Piece, ignited a new era for piracy.

* FieldOfBlades: Up in Mariejois sit the Empty Throne, symbolizing that no one kingdom or individual will seek to rule the world alone within the World Government. The throne itself is surrounded by weapons stuck into the ground and symbolically protecting the throne, representing each kingdom's commitment to maintain balance between them.
* FieryRedhead: Nami, natch. Though unlike most, when she gets angry, it's mostly because someone is being a [[WhatAnIdiot complete idiot.]]

%%* {{Filler}}:
%%** Rainbow Mist.
%%** Warship Island.
%%** G8.

** The Water Seven arc starts out on a pleasant note, but becomes the Straw Hats' darkest story arc within about 24 hours. Shortly after their arrival, Robin encounters someone from CP9 and disappears. The Straw Hats sell their gold for money to use to repair their ship, but learn that the Going Merry is beyond repair. Shortly thereafter, Usopp gets attacked and two thirds of the money is stolen. Usopp takes the decision to replace the Merry very badly, leaves the crew and fights a duel with Luffy, losing and worsening his injuries. The Straw Hats wake up the next morning feeling depressed about everything that happened the previous day... then learn that they've been framed for an assassination attempt on Iceberg's life, that Robin supposedly betrayed them by helping the assassin, and that a massive storm known as the Aqua Laguna is heading toward the island.

* FromBadToWorse: The Marineford arc. [[spoiler:Ace dies, making the entire mission a moot point. Then, the Blackbeard Pirates show up to finish Whitebeard off, having freed a bunch of extremely dangerous criminals to join their ranks. This caused the pirates to start fighting over Whitebeard's land, and releasing some of the greatest psychos the world has ever known. Whitebeard's dying words countered the Marines' announcement that they killed him, making the entire war basically pointless since both sides just recruited a buttload of people. ''Then,'' Blackbeard somehow ''[[MegaManning added Whitebeard's earthquake powers to his own formidable powers of darkness]]'', causing him to be the center of the new age of Piracy.]] Pretty much '''the entire world''' went OhCrap at that one.

* AFriendInNeed: It runs on the PowerOfFriendship. What do you expect?
