Hello and welcome back, I'm Michael.
I'm Noe.
And we are the Knights of Entertainment, another chapter update for One Piece.
Yep, we are up to chapter two, well we're kind of skipping, we're doing a pincer move
where we go one from the back and one from the front basically.
So we're trying to catch up and at the same time we are caught up, if that makes any sense
whatsoever.
So we're on chapter 1097, Jenny, which just dropped today.
So to begin, the cover is a reader's request and they requested that he draw Bartholomew
Kuma fishing in the river and that's basically just for a little fanfare.
So we start in, basically it is now, it is jumped, it is eight years after the God Valley
incident, but we don't know what the fuck happened.
I shouldn't have swore, damn it.
I apologize.
So we don't know what happened in God Valley, it skipped over that.
The last chapters I told you just completely skipped the whole incident.
So it's been eight years since that, but it's 30 years before our current time.
Kuma is now 17 and he's a preacher at his old hometown, his homeland, Zorba Kingdom.
And so what he does is he takes the pawpaw fruit powers, he gives them two things basically.
One is to teleport people anywhere, he swipes at them and they get put into a bubble, a
little safety bubble and they get just sent wherever.
I don't know if he can control where they go or if it's just random, but he can just
send people hundreds of thousands, even thousands of miles away, they're gone.
And his second ability is to pull from people pain and illness.
I don't know if it's just light or if it can be extreme or moderate.
In here it says that he can take away people's pain and illness, any light pain or illness.
And basically what he does is he pushes it out with his pawpaw powers.
There's no other way, that's what it's called, the pawpaw fruit.
There's no other way to say it, it sounds so weird saying pawpaw powers.
Like it's a puppy patrol or something.
Pawpaw power!
So every Sunday, people in his village, or maybe the whole southern side of the kingdom,
they visit Kumma because he can work miracles.
Like if their back hurts he can push out the pain and they feel great.
If they've got a cold he can push that out.
Whatever it is he can push it away.
So people love him.
And he's so kind that he's willing to do it for no fee.
He's a preacher, he just wants to help his flock I guess.
But Jenny, who's living with him too, she's now 21 and she's...
It's that trope where you have the reserved shy male and the real loud female in a relationship.
You know what I mean?
It's that, he's the quiet one and she's the loud one.
And if it wasn't true, it would be one of those tropes that gets boring, right?
But when it's true, those tropes never get old.
It's just reality.
You will always see that type of couple.
I've had that type of couple because I once had a really reserved man.
When I told him we don't have any balloons, he got on the phone and then I had to speak
to his wife because she wanted him to pass the phone to me.
And I looked him dead in his eyes, like, you are the spineless man I've ever seen in my
life.
So I know I gotta get yelled at because you don't wanna get yelled at.
So they want him, all the people want him to open up for the weekday, take all their
pain throughout the week.
And Jenny's like, no, only Sundays.
And so they call her, she's apparently like, she's so hot that every man on the island
wants her.
But she only wants to hang out with Kuma.
So they all leave for the day.
And here's the drawback of his power.
All that pain that he accumulates gets left in a bubble.
I guess anyone can see it if they show him.
So it's this big bubble of just pain and anguish, I guess, and all this stuff, illness.
And if no one takes it, it goes back to the original people eventually.
So after the day of taking people's illnesses and pain, Kuma absorbs it all himself and
just gets completely torn up inside.
He gets every back pain, every illness, and it just tears him apart.
So that's why he can't do it every day.
So he's so selfless that...
He's basically a sin eater.
So that's basically what he's doing.
And the flock and the people that come for help, they don't even know he's doing it.
But it causes him extreme pain because he's taking all their pain himself.
And because he's a buccaneer, he's physically stronger than normal people.
So he can probably take a lot more than they can.
But it still puts him in bed for a week.
And only Jenny knows about this.
That's why she's so mad at him all the time.
But the people need him to do that for him because they need to stay healthy to keep
working because the local king in Zorban, King Bakuri, he's one of those boot lickers
for the...
He's not a celestial dragon himself, but he sucks up to him.
And they gotta play like a heavenly tribute every year or every week or something.
And if you can't afford to pay, he throws you in jail.
And if you get thrown in jail, it's basically a death sentence because he wouldn't even
pay for food.
So he'll just let you starve in prison.
So after that, we jumped 25 years ago, which is now Akuma is 22.
And Jenny's, I guess, if she was 21, he was 17.
What does that make her?
17, 18, 19, 20.
That's four years or five years.
So she is now, he's 22, she's now 27.
And she's dead out ass, she's pretty much dead.
What's the best word to say?
She flat out asks him, Akuma, we should get married.
And he's like, no.
And she's like, I could make a great wife for you.
He's like, I'm sure you would, but we can't get married.
And it's actually the reason he doesn't want to marry her as mad as she gets at him is
because of his buccaneer blood.
He gets a flashback of his dad who tried to save his wife and his son.
He's like, because when they got captured, they all became prisoners of the celestial
dragons.
He told the people that my wife doesn't have buccaneers, but it's just me.
So just take me and leave her alone.
But they took her anyway and she ended up dying when she was a slave.
So that Akuma has that same fear that if they have a kid or if they get married, that she'll
be associated with buccaneers, even though she doesn't have their blood, she'll be killed.
So he decides no.
So that's selfless of him.
So then it jumps up to 22 years ago.
So it's three years after the marriage proposal that he turned down.
There's an incident in the kingdom, King Bekuru, what did I say his name was?
Bekuru.
He decides to pretty much cut off the southern part of the island and no longer consider
it part of the sorbic kingdom so that the people down there are now eligible to be slaves
to the celestial dragons.
And Akuma's like, yo, that's real messed up.
So he tried to speak out against him.
He even uses his powers to actually fight off some of the soldiers.
But he fails and he goes to prison with Jenny.
So now they're in jail.
And a little bit after that, Dragon, Monkey D. Dragon and Ivankov, who they knew when
they were kids back on the God Valley, they break him out of jail.
And they're like, hey, why don't you join our revolutionary army and we can help a lot
of people and all this and that.
So he's like, bet.
So they joined the army and you find out that Monkey D. Dragon, because one of them asked
him, how do you know how to train people with weapons training and military strategy and
all this?
And Dragon flat out says that I used to be part of the Navy for a little bit.
But I quit because I didn't find the justice that they were on their back.
So basically he saw how corrupt the Navy was.
So you find out that Monkey D. Dragon was also a Navy officer like his father, if his
father's Monkey D. Garp.
They haven't said if they're related by blood or by just association like a sister or like
a son-in-law type thing.
But I guess he would have to because if they're both named Dragon, they're both Monkey D.
Garp, Monkey D. Dragon, Monkey D. Loof.
He has to be like an actual father and son.
That wouldn't make any sense in the other way.
He wouldn't take his wife's name, would he?
You know what I mean?
Right.
So do you think that he'd know about God Valley?
He would have to.
You think so?
He's a Dragon smart.
He said, I don't know.
Luffy didn't.
I don't know what Luffy got from his father because it sure wasn't that.
Let me be honest here.
I don't know what Luffy got from his dad.
He picked up more from his grandfather?
No because his grandfather's smart too.
I don't know, Luffy's the dumbest MC I've ever seen and he just never fails.
Just the absolute, the only thing that he's got like, he put like, you know like when
you put your stats in a game?
Yeah.
He put his willpower at a thousand.
Okay well then there's Goku.
He's pretty damn dumb.
Yeah.
But like not, like he'll like say things right, like really inquisitive things right,
Goku eventually.
Luffy's just like, if a character gives him a real sad sob story right, like we watched
like three episodes worth of like a backstory of a character right.
Yeah.
At the end of episode three they turn to Luffy and he's fast asleep.
He's like, I don't hear anything you said but I'm real hungry.
So yeah, so they join the basically Garth's plan is to, Dragon's plan is to trade a bunch
of people and have a really powerful military force scattered throughout the world on different
islands, so that they can't be like I guess attacked or all at once.
Right.
Or I don't know what his actual military plan is to have such a scattered force.
I guess whenever they're ready to attack, they all come together in one major attack.
And they don't have one specific spot that is going to be attacked and destroy the entire
revolutionary army here.
I guess that's what they're thinking.
Yeah.
So they join up and eight more years pass after that, so they're building the revolutionary
army because it's still like, so then we jump to 14 years before our current time.
Jenny's part of the army too of course and she's like a captain.
I think they make the revolutionary army captain.
Yeah.
Captain Eastern forces.
Yeah.
Jenny's part of the revolution army Eastern forces.
She's a captain and she's excited because she's going to get to, she's about to meet
up with Kuma's forces and they're going to, she hasn't seen it.
She's still in love with him, even though everyone loves everyone loves Jenny.
Every guy is madly, she's like that one, right?
And she only has eyes for Kuma.
The one that's not available.
So it's like Sakura where she's only got eyes for Sasuke.
I guess if Sasuke was an actual nice person that helped people because he's basically
religious, he worships the sun god Nika.
So she's all excited and then it cuts like halfway through the page, right?
Which I like when pages cut to the next pages and that is like a cut to a different scene,
right?
But he, they cut it right in the middle.
Dragon gets a call over the snails, transponder snails and they're like, oh, Jenny's been
captured.
He's like, what?
And that's it.
The Jenny, they got, someone got the drop on him and Jenny's been captured.
So now Jenny's gone and we still don't know what happened to her.
So you said this was a, this is 14 years before the current timeline, right?
So that would make a Lucy held 14 years ago.
How old is he now?
He is 19.
So that was two years after five.
No he would have been because of the series started when he was 17.
Then it was a two year time skip.
So it was 14 years before that.
He probably be, maybe you're right five.
Yeah.
Cause it's before the current timeline.
Yeah.
You're right.
I was thinking something else.
So what no one understands yet is who Jenny is.
They think it's cause cause we have Bonnie who's Kuma's daughter and she has the power
to age or DH people.
You can make it really old, really young and she can do it to herself too.
So the theory goes that it's either Jenny's actual daughter with Kuma or it's a Jenny
ate the devil fruit.
Something happened to her while she was captured.
Maybe like they tortured her or they made her a slave for like 14 years or whatever.
And it was so bad and horrific that when Kuma finds her and she doesn't want to live anymore.
So maybe he takes everything.
Maybe you find out he has another ability to not only take her pain away, but also her
memories and he decides to raise her as a kid until she grows up.
Right?
You know what I mean?
I don't know where the daughter Bonnie came from.
If it's not Jenny, there's like all these theories that it's a clone of Jenny.
It's Jenny's daughter.
Cause we're still, cause we just had the last couple of chapters that Bonnie attacked, uh,
Satan Saturn for killing her father, Kuma.
So we know that he has a daughter named Bonnie, right?
That looks a lot like Jenny.
But if Jenny's not her actual daughter, daughter, or Jenny's not her actual mother, we don't
know yet if it could be simply that it is the mom, but being Oda and everyone would
be in so into like this huge conspiracy, there's like 15,000 theories of who Bonnie is or know
who Jenny is.
Right.
Cause she could have had her memories taken away and de-aged.
Yeah.
Cause she would have de-aged herself when he hit the devil fruit.
Yeah.
So then Kuma would have just raised her platonically.
Cause you know, he, he loved her maybe as a sister.
So now he can love her as a daughter.
Right.
Like Jenny loved her, him as a husband because she wanted to marry him.
And he was like, I can't do that to you.
And if he took her memories and said, no, Jenny is your mom.
Just, or just never told her who her mom was.
True.
Who knows?
We, we went on to chapter 10 98.
We don't even know what God Valley is.
Cause cause they, it has to, it has to be the biggest event in one piece for it, for
him to skip over it like that.
Multiple times.
Not only that, but like he said, like, like this is it.
Like this is the final chapters.
So I'm going to tell you, I'm going to show you all the secrets of one piece from here
on out.
Right.
After, after the one saga to skip over God Valley, after he said, like, I'm going to
show you everything means that God Valley is something truly for like groundbreaking
or monumental within the world of one piece.
Right.
And like it just, the fact that he skipped over, I bet you people lost their minds.
It's like, and then like now it's like eight years after.
This chapter says eight years after God Valley incident that we didn't even get to see.
And what did we see on the chapter of the last chapter?
We saw the rocks pirates on the Island.
We saw Roger on that.
We saw Garp on the Island, all those elements on the Island.
And then the last page is like skipped over the incident.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
That is like, that is like, you can't do that to people.
And you have all the devil fruits that are extremely powerful still there.
You had the six, you had six something, at least you had, you don't know if they were
all devil fruits.
Right.
Could have been like treasure or something.
And the other ones like, like a, like a, like a key to like a fountain of gold or something.
But we know there was two, we know it was a pop pop fruit was there because Kuma found,
got it there.
We know that the dragon fruit that Kaido took was there, the, the Zoan type.
I guess it was a mystical though, I could have a dragon instead of a regular animal.
So there was two at least.
We don't know what the other four are because they never showed it.
Right.
And when they got, when Ivankov and Kuma got snuck into the building to steal the devil
fruit, they got jumped by a big mom who was Charlotte Lindland by then, cause she was
still pretty thin and fit.
She wasn't a mom, a big mom yet.
So I don't know.
I'm real like they, they had to have skipped over God Valley for a reason.
God Valley, they either rocks, the pirate had, had the, some devil fruit that's like
monumental.
Maybe he had what Blackbeard has right now that, that black hole devil fruit.
Maybe he had, maybe he had Luffy's devil fruit for all we know.
Maybe he warped it into something evil.
So when they beat him, it finally released it back into the, we don't know.
Maybe he has the eye patch that would signal the end of One Piece.
I don't know yet, but it is too many questions that still need answered.
It's just real weird that he skipped over God Valley being at the end of the series
where he said he was going to finally show the secrets because it has to be something
here.
He had to have to be a reason for it.
God Valley must be that fucking big, I shouldn't have said the F for it.
It must be that big of a situation that it will re like, like the, the, the re the realization
of what Luffy's devil fruit really is.
It has to be that level of a plot twist.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
It's, it's gotta be something I'm hinging on God Valley being the key and the answer
to a lot of questions that have been asked throughout One Piece.
And once he shows it, it's going to, you know, basically rewrite what we know about One
Piece.
It has to, or he wouldn't have skipped it for like a second time.
Yeah.
He's gonna have to come back to it at some point.
He has to cause you can't not show God Valley.
Like you can't, the, the incident has to, we have to know what happened.
It's weird.
Very intriguing.
Puts on my Sherlock Holmes cap for sure.
It's just like all of the, you, you, you, all these chapters, you led up to God Valley
and then you just skipped over it again.
It has to be something.
Had he just shown it, I'd been like, Oh, it's God Valley.
Wow.
Right.
But he's like, they specifically, he specifically had the three groups of the most powerful
beings at the time, Rogers, the Rocks Pirates and Garp.
And then you just, the next page, it was just like, it's like the week after God Valley.
And we're totally different.
Yeah.
It was a Ivanka and a Kuma and Jenny were like on a different plan, a different Island
reading in the newspapers that no one talked about God Valley.
So that they had to have been there and see what happened.
Hmm.
And they never talked about it or maybe they didn't even see it.
Maybe they escaped because Kuma had his powers to just bump them out of there.
Just, just bubbled them out of there.
They just bubbled them out.
I don't know how you get bubbles out of a pop out fruit.
That's one piece for you.
By the way, by the way, I took a test on Tik TOK that's saying here's your month.
That's your devil fruit.
I got the rope, rope fruit.
I can make ropes.
I don't know what I'm going to do with that.
It's selling to cave divers.
I guess so.
There you go.
Maybe the greatest rope seller of all time.
Exactly.
I guess I'd be like, kind of like a Don Quixote, Doflamingo.
He had strings and he did a lot of horrific things with that.
I do a lot with rope.
I thought you said he didn't do anything evil.
Oh yeah, you're right.
He's an innocent man.
So that's it for chapter 1097.
Cool.
Anything else to add before we head out today?
No more theories now.
I'm empty.
All right.
We will see you guys on the next chapter update.
Unless it's a bye week, then we won't.
Exactly.
Talk to you guys later.
