Kobylu Week Day 1: Roleswap

LAST FEW MINUTES OF THE DAY SHUSSSSH

Okay silly lore I thought of since I'm free now-

The only ones swapped are Koby and Luffy, and I also adore the Rocks D. Koby AUs so of course I alluded to that lmao, and basically Luffy is just the most unhinged Marine you've ever fucking seen 💀

Rumor that Xebec had a descendant got out a while before Koby was born, around the time Roger was executed. Koby was soon involuntarily abandoned after he was born, since his parents got found out and killed by Marines. He was taken into the care of a communication line of fishermen, who found out Koby's bloodline pretty quickly, but decided to keep it a secret. He was passed island to island to keep his existence a secret (oh hey sorta like Luffy lol), but he was still kidnapped by Alvida at 14. However, Koby was aware of his lineage and was already trained in how to defend himself, and he managed to escape only after a few weeks, albeit badly injured. By pure coincidence, he ran into Red-Haired Shanks, who decided to give Koby some medical attention before dropping him off someplace. In the time they knew each other, Shanks decided to give Koby -instead of his whole hat- the red ribbon attached to his strawhat to Koby. Koby still wears the ribbon as a bandana to this day.

Luffy never met Shanks in this AU, and Garp drilled Marine ideology into his grandson's head harsher than ever, but it of course didn't stick right, and Luffy interprets it in bizarre ways. Luffy is still extremely motivated to find the One Piece, but not to become the King of the Pirates. He just wants to out of spite and boredom.

Luffy and Koby met during the timeskip, about a year after Ace had been wrongly executed. In that time, Koby had become a prominant pirate from both his name and his grandfather's. People assumed he was after the One Piece as well, and they weren't wrong, but Koby's real reason to find the One Piece was to end the era of pirates, not to become King. Luffy had been on a sort of off-site probation after he tried publicly saving Ace (to keep him out of the public's eye/to forcefully make him cool down/to make people believe he was dead), and ran into Koby. Luffy was briefed who Koby was, but couldn't care less, and became good friends with him extremely quickly.

And that's all I got pff, might make a fic might not, anyways see ya tomorrow for the Modern Prompt 👍✨

Jesus CHRIST talk about a battle of gods! 😱

And I know people are upset we didn't see the Rocks vs Garp and Roger fight in this chapter BUT imho we probably won't see that until Luffy and co. find out about God Valley and potentially visit there (if it wasn't erased by Imu).

Favorite One Piece Reddit theory right now: Rocks being the Buggy of his era.

A seemingly omnious, terrifying figure connected to so many influential figures but in reality is a clown who lucked his way into this position.

Chiffon and Crocodile both having abusive Rocks Pirates Parents 🤝

Probably started with Chiffon musing about how she's trying to break the cycle of bad parenting and speculating if her mother was always such a monster which has Croc pulling out the whiskey like "oh, girl, that twisted tree has ROOTS"

It’s the good bourbon he stole from a tribute ship headed for Mary Geoise a couple years back. Strong stuff, good year, perfect for the heavier conversations.

The rule of thumb, Crocodile points out, is that if you have to ask yourself if your “parent” is a monster more than once in your life, odds are that they probably are.

Rocks D. Xebec and Charlotte Linlin were monsters. They both wanted to rule the world in their own ways, happily sticking their heads in the clouds and letting the ends justify the horrible means. Perhaps at one time their intentions were good, but the road to Hell is so often paved with them…

It’s why Crocodile initially- and eventually once again- admired Dragon’s way of things. He has no desire to rule, only to see people treated fairly. He focuses on the peaceful transfer of power (as peaceful as you can possibly get with the World Nobles) rather than violent revolution that would leave what’s left of the land in shambles. His mind is on the future, not just for himself, but for the generations to come.

The humanity is there, and it’s exactly what Xebec and Big Mom lacked.

Chiffon agrees, and playfully points out that Crocodile sure does like to talk about his husband when the drinks are strong.

One piece 1095 spoilers!!

If Kuma and his family knew about the warrior of liberation Nika and they talked about how they'll be set free by him..

and he was present and then freed at God Valley, that can only hint to one thing...

either Rocks D Xebec ate the Hito Hito no Mi model Nika... or Gol D Roger did

[0ynes]

"The native hunting competition" really broke me. What a timing to release this chapter too... Anyone who still thinks One Piece isn't political and isn't woke, should just drop it.

Garp and Roger are on very thin ice. idk what Xebec could be doing that's worse than this. idk what will justify Garp and Roger "protecting the tenryuubito and their slaves", even though so far we only have the marines POV of what happen. One thing is certain, the tenryuubito were protected. So, Garp and Roger start explaining yourselves.

Headcanon Hell: One Piece #1

Ever since I became interested in the series I have been wondering about Luffy's family tree. I know that to this day the biological mother hasn't been revealed, but she is not the one I would like to focus on here but the Monkey D family. (I generally don't mind if it turns out that Crocodaile is his bio mom, or that Dragon had on-and-off relationships with Nico Olivia, but that's a whole different headcanon hell).

First of all, it has always seemed to me that : Gol D Roger, Portgas D Ace, Monkey D Garp and Luffy look similar to some extent. This is a bit of a stretch but it would also explain Garp's behavior to some extent. Garp as a character is known for his moral code. He is stubborn, but at least for his family, he makes minor exceptions. (Even if he later regrets not making greater ones). Ace counts as family (grandson), but so did Roger. From that scene in prison and fact that they fought together against Rocks D Xebec make it a possibility. Especially since arguably the younger Garp was the more headstrong he was - many people mellow down with age. Garp is a naval hero, tenacious against pirates, who is forgiven for some of his missteps simply because of his strength. Could he do it just becouse he wanted, if Luffy took that part of his personality from him, sure, but would it be more likely, if they shared some deeper bond, yes. (I would have forgotten, but in addition, both Roger and Garp are from East Blue, and based on how D is scattered, this may or may not be a complete coincidence). And so I came up with the theory that maybe they are cousins - Garp and Roger. If they had a little bigger age difference then maybe they could even have a nephew-uncle kind of relationship. I like to imagine that if the difference between them was around 10 years then maybe Garp had an older sister who had a child with some Gol D. Somehow remarkably few main characters have biological siblings, so it wouldn't be the silliest idea. (In my own head I named the potential sister Monkey D Enid).

Second, in reference to Rocks D Xebec. Monkey D Dragon clearly takes after his mother's family. About which we don't know much either. Many fans have compared the appearance of Dragon and Xebec - they do look similar. And they probably made similar conclusions to me, somewhere there was a “marriage” between Monkey D and Rocks D. Due to the fact that we don't know Garp's wife, my brain automatically connected the dots. The potential wife could have been Xebec's sister or daughter. (Drumroll please … Rocks D Corvette - boat like name). I imagine her relationship with Xebec was a similar to the one between Yamato and Kaido.

We still don't know everything about the events of that time. The question of Shanks' background also comes up there. Following this line of thought, Shanks could also be related, as his name is related to the boat (part of an anchor), just in less obvious way. His mother also is unknown, so who knows … but okay maybe I went too far.

Well headcanon is headcanon. Oda said that adventure is only possible if there is no mother, but the lack of even a mention of most of these women is just sad. Especially in the context of the main characters.

Rocks D Xebec's devil fruit reveals Blackbeard's Secret - One Piece theory with Japanese @bottlepiecemuses

[skywalkersolos-blog]

[mjrtaurus]

There's been a lot of times when Crocodile has had to comfort his sons from nightmares, but he never expects it to be the other way around. And why on earth should he? He's the parent, Gabe and Gryphon are the children.

So to say he's caught off guard when his dreams are being terrorized by pretty much any event from the shitshow that is his life and he wakes up to find Gabriel wiping at his eyes and saying "It's okay, Baba. You're safe." while Gryphon is piling stuffed animals around Crocodile with as much silent dignity as he can muster, is a vast understatement.

Crocodile has the particular sort of disordered sleeping that a few nights awake in a row will end with him in an exhausted, nightmare infested midday crash. And sometimes it isn’t only nightmares that get triggered by this setup.

Night terrors are horrific things. Parasomnia just in general is a horrific thing. You are awake, speaking, talking, moving, but your mind is still in that hallucinogenic state that dreams are. And it doesn’t just “switch off”, either. Night terrors- like most fits of parasomnia- end in a near seamless bleed into the waking world, and it shakes your sense of reality to the core.

It’s sleepwalking while fully conscious.

So when the boys “wake” him, he scoops them up in a bear-hug, shaking like a leaf while the dead man with violet eyes watches from the doorway.

Important strategic meeting between Rocks and Crocodile

I was asked if I could draw these two and since I love the theory that Crocodile is Rocks' kid (even though I'm not sure where it comes from) I was happy to give it a shot.

Rocks design is of course just a suggestion since we don't know yet what he looks like. Also, he's not really said to be a good dude and I love the angst of Croc not having a great time on his father's ship, but maybe he did treasure his kid.

Feel free to share your headcanons if you have any about the Croc is Rocks' kid theory~
