    Honest question, what’s Koby’s fucking problem? Smartest guy on earth says the world is doomed unless someone finds the One Piece and he’s like, “yeah I can’t let Luffy do that”

      I still don’t get it. He’s just seen first hand how dangerous Blackbeard was and how his crew took down Garp and currently have a former admiral on their side.

      He should be brainstorming how to take down Blackbeard because Blackbeard will actually take over the world and is just using everything in the world to his advantage no matter how dishonorable it is.

      I do think Koby and Luffy will still team up in the end to take down Blackbeard since it parallels their first encounter as Koby was taken prisoner by both Alvida and Blackbeard before being saved by a D clan member in Luffy and Garp.

        That would also parallel Roger and Garp teaming up to take down Rocks!

        Only thing I can think of is that he’s been trying to keep up with Luffy this whole time in pursuing their respective dreams and this is how he thinks of being on the same level. But like his dream was to be an admiral, so I don’t know that’s really required?? Strange boy.

      Lets be honest. But coby doesn’t feel like what garp is to roger yet. Although I wanna see them seriously clash. But that felt malignant somehow. I dunno

        They haven’t interacted at all yet since Koby got powered up, so they’ll probably have a duel down the line somewhere. But I still don’t get his goal, does he want the Marines to get the One Piece or does he just wanna stop Luffy?

          Akainu or broadly navy seem to be set for securing one piece for the government. Koby seems to fall into that of course. He has been as a navy counterpart for long enough. The way he said it seemed he wanted stop luffy.

          If Koby doesn’t just have a shorter version of the Rob Lucci fight on Egghead then I’m gonna be pissed. At best he can have a “Usopp leaving the crew battle” redux, but anything beyond that would annoy me tbh.
