#chapter 1108

This was fun! Franky & Bonney are the ones who meet up with the giants. Good use of Franky's wanted poster being weird, it was the Sunny remember? And they seem to have some kind of knowledge of Vegapunk. Makes sense Dorry & Brogy wouldn't know about the very famous Vegapunk because they were on Little Garden for a century. "Scholar" to me seems like the safe bet is Saul, they definitely wouldn't know about any connection to Robin either.

But you know, for all we had of messy chance encounters like this in Wano it's cool to see this one go so smoothly. And it's not like it's an isolated idea. We see Caribou having his own version of this. He's being smart about it too, trying to walk that line of giving just enough info for Catarina & Augur to realize the worth without giving too much so they can just take his annoying ass out here. Overall though it's a lot of these long threads coming together in one chapter which is very cool.

We see the heart monitor flatline before this. Dead man's switch. Niiiice, and it makes sense of Vegapunk here. The angle of wanting to die before the island gets wrecked. This may have even been what Shaka and Dragon spoke about so long ago, or draw from the night before that still remains a mystery. Vegapunk dropping a big truth bomb is the type of thing that can ripple violently. It echoes Roger at the start and Whitebeard at the halfway point. Probably going to be a huge deal.
