#Novel Law

[cantagirldrawinpeace]

In light of recent episodes I drew more Law Novel scenes (ft. them seeing the Tang for the first time 🥲)

Plus the older ones under the cut

Plus here’s me yapping in the tags of my last Law Novel post cuz I love this man

[1000sunnygo]

If anyone ever wondered, here's One Piece Novel Law author Sakagami Shusei grieving the loss of Polar Tang and the Heart pirates this day last year.

My illustration for novel Law:

"I took the spoon with my left hand, on my right the scalpel was still aimed at the old man. Suddenly I realized that I was crying… All these feelings collapsed and I could not stand the tears."

[melancholitas]

Reading the Law novel in these dire times was probably not one of my best ideas.

What I definitely know is, I'd go haywire if the novel would be animated. I would even take the tiniest snippets, beggars can't be choosers.

Or even in general the backstory of the Hearts...Their past has so much potential, even if Oda decides to come up with a different approach.

Yes, it's only semi-canon, but still, excuse me while I sob into my pillows for a moment.

As not to spoil the novel or recent story events, I'll continue under the cut.

First of all, Wolf.

I don't know how he does it, but Law seems to have a knack for mellowing old mens hearts atp. Their growing friendship was endearing. Especially them actually verbalizing they consider each other dear friends is something healing for both of them.

The junker basically adopting all 4 of them because Law just said "deal with it! (please, can we keep them?)"..... He really missed being a dad it seems. Training them, together with Law.. Especially after standing up against the abusive relatives Penguin and Shachi were hiding from.

Gifting them the submarine, even painting it for them, so they can carry a part of his own dream with them broke me a little. Especially since he didn't want them drowning in the little wooden boat they bought on their own. So of course he had to gift him the "super endurable, nearly uncuttable" vessel.

Yeah, that cut through me instead.

*massive side eye to you, there, Blackbeard*

Don't even get me started on the 4 youngsters. I adore them to pieces. To smithereens. So I'll probably process that in my current fic series wip as I can't shut up about them.

Getting to see Laws inner growth albeit never losing his anxiety was also a precious pov. He didn't lose himself, despite all. And I'm glad he had at least a tatse of normalcy for 3 years, warming his shattered, naive little heart.

I can absolutely not stand to watch this if this turns worst case.

So I'm all the more heartbroken about what will happen. The freedom he promised Cora-san to seek is so tightly knit to these events and the Hearts (thinking of his crew also part Cora's). If Law lost ALL of these dear connections and convictions in that single happening, it would absolutely obliterate him (and me).

Wolf would probably get a heart attack if he reads about his little gremlins in the coo.

Ah, according to Novel Law, Shachi & Penguin's parents/family were drowned in a tsunami that hit Swallow island. Assuming there is no more info after part 1 of the novel and never will be outside the novel, it's evident Shachi nor Penguin are (at least partially) fishmen. Disappointed lol.

Oh... how sad. Shachi's relatives forced the two into child labor to trade illegal weapons & rob jewelry for water and bread... Law was pissed beyond belief and felt so connected to them hearing all this shit.

Another go at designing Wolf from the Law Novel! (With a pizza shirt just because) I like how this one turned out a lot better~

Hol' up everybody! Have you heard about the brand new Growing Pains zine? It's free and it's all about your fave One Piece characters as kids. I wrote about the Heart Pirates on Swallow Island (or the soon to be Heart Pirates). It's illustrated with gorgeous art by @ravensa

and it can be downloaded here!

If you dip into this FREE zine (and why wouldn't you?), please let us know what you think! Hope you enjoy.

Let's put in this guest art work from the great late Kim Jung Gi for Novel Law when it was first serialised. I think either the first or second chapter.

Teenage Law practicing, bringing life into the world.

I just want to make a post to point out how Law being a doctor is not anecdotal.

Like, it’s shown in the anime that it’s his parents profession and he started to learn young and all but the Light Novel made me realize how important being a doctor is to him and how much pride and happiness it brings him.

It’s not just something about him, being a doctor is something that defines him and is very important for his character.

He studies tones when he gets the time, he even worked in a doctor office for multiple years when he was younger after Cora’s death.

He started saving people’s life at a very young age and carried out very complex surgeries very young. He’s literally a genius in this domain and it’s too bad it’s not shown enough in the anime.

The doctor he was working with told him how good he was and how much potential he had at just 13/14yo. He was born for this.

When he saved the lives of the people he loved he was filled with this euphoria that he saw his parents get before him, he understood their joy and felt connected to them and proud of himself.

He founds himself in being a doctor, he loves saving lives and is proud of how capable he is. He is able to make the most of his ope ope no mi thanks to his talent and hard work.

Law may be a pirate but he is also a doctor and he wouldn’t see himself being anything else than that.

Been reading Law Novel 👍

(super legally and not at all from a Google Docs English fan translation 👀)

WOLF ONE PIECE I KNOW YOURE NOT CANON BUT YOU REMAIN FOREVER FAMOUS TO MEEEE!!!

(Handwriting translations under the cut)

1-

Law: Junk-ya this is Bepo. He’s a polar bear and he’s going to live with us now. Be nice

Bepo: He brought me here without explaining anything..sorry….

2-

I like this sad old man :)

3-

Wolf: I swear, I let ONE kid stay - out of pure convenience - and they just kept multiplying!

Dadan: Tell me about it…

Both of them, thinking: I LOVE MY FUCKIN KIIIIDDDDSSSS!!!!

[cfserkgk]

I imagine them to be a happy family in the modern AU where Fengxian and Lakan are married and Lahan and Maomao are their children. Fengxian would be strict but she very much dotes on her kids (just not as obviously as Lakan, but who can compare with Lakan).

I feel like Lakan would be a lawyer which would put his skills to use, whereas Fengxian would be an academic in mathematics, and of course they're both super good at xiangqi and go in different ways. (I'd like to think Fengxian taught Lahan a lot of maths when he was younger and that encouraged his love for the subject).

[melancholitas]

Wolf: Remember, little brat, it's give and take. What we have is a give and take relationship. Don't forget that. I solely do give and take!

Law:.. Yeah, I know, Mr Junk. What do you want?

Wolf: So listen up! I will give you my friendship, and I will take your friendship in return! No take-backsies! End of story!

Law, smiling:.. Whatever you say, old man.

.... I adore them to pieces.

[cantagirldrawinpeace]

Part 2

I know that the Law novel exists, but I wanted to put my own spin on the origins of these characters so I hope you guys don’t mind me not putting Mr. Wolf and other related characters in this comic

Anyways, this is like part 1 of a little series concerning Penguin’s and Shachi’s backstory, inspired by the novel’s premise of Shachi’s aunt and uncle watching over the two when they were young

(P.S. I wonder why Penguin’s eyes are sensitive to light 👀)

[lawomi]

Please Oda please give us a canon story about Wolf and the Polar Tang. Give us some background for the Hearts canonically. I want it before it shows theyre alive, to emphasis Law's sorrow. Ahhhg!!!

[tinycurlyfry]

I’ve yet again stayed up way too late drawing, but I really did want to try my hand at a few Wolf designs~
