//SPOILERS FOR 1083//

1 - The ✨ parallels ✨ between that cover of Doflamingo, Crocodile and the pug..., Oda be like I can excuse mass murders and dictatorship, but I draw the line at animal cruelty.,

2 - I relate to fujitora on a personal level, because if I had the possibility to blew up the whole place over every single inconvenience, damn right I'd use it 😭. Aramaki's gonna reconsider his life choices atp, man's got disrespect and stressed right and left since he had been introduced.

3 - Actually wondering why Oda brought back the whole CP9. Don't get me wrong, I love them and I'm happy they're here, but for a bunch of high treason criminals, they sure got rehabilitated easily. And spandam better run. Even if they got a massive powerup, well..., Lucci was supposed to be their strongest member and all, we saw the result against Luffy post timeskip.

Just a weird feeling that they, and Blueno in peculiar considering his door-door fruit, may have something to do with cobra's faith.

4 - Everyone hates the celestial dragons, but taking advantage of the presence of civilians to block your adversaries in fight isn't cool on the principle. And that's ok, but low-key looks like Akainu's justice lmfao 💀 the whole I don't care what happens or how I reach my ultimate goal, for one the annihilation of criminals, and the other freedom. Furthermore, we waited 25 years for RA to move, and their first big action is a literal war declaration 😭 monkey d. family just has to be extra.

5 - out of topic number 19900, but Vivi confronting Lucci's ass is such a great character development, go girl.

(thanks for copying with my crap ❤️)

nooo, I love hearing what people think of the chapters!

Fujitora's always been pretty big on doing his own thing and not really caring about what anyone tells him so I'm not surprised he thought the best way to deal with the situation was to just call down some meteors but somehow he keeps getting away with it...

I've been waiting since 2015 for an explanation as to how we got from the CP9 cover story to here and now I'm even more curious since they're all involved and I feel like knowing how that happened would make their motivations a lot clearer (though maybe that's why we haven't found out yet...) so I still hope we get some answers to that somewhere along the line!

There's this one screenshot of Sengoku during Marineford saying something like 'Garp! It's your damn family again!' and that's literally what this arc is because Garp, Dragon and Luffy are all wreaking havoc in different ways at different places simultaneously.

Oh you know Lucci hates the fact that he's somehow been given guard duty, especially considering what Vivi's like and that the last thing she's ever going to do is listen to him or follow his orders so he's not having a good time right now!!

[oestegossauro]

Descrição

O estegossauro quadruped é um dos dinossauros mais facilmente identificados, devido à linha dupla distinta de placas romboidais que se erguem verticalmente ao longo do seu dorso arqueado e aos dois pares de dentes longos que se estendem horizontalmente perto da extremidade da cauda. O tamanho médio do estegossauro é de cerca de 9 metros de comprimento e 4 metros de altura. Apesar de ser um animal grande, era anão por seus sauropods gigantes contemporâneos como Diplodocus, Camarasaurus e Apatosaurus. Uma certa forma de armadura parece ter sido necessária, pois coexistiu com grandes dinossauros de caça terópodes, como o temível Alossauro e o Ceratossauro.

As pernas traseiras tinham três dedos curtos, enquanto cada perna dianteira tinha cinco dedos; apenas os dois dedos internos tinham a forma de capacete. A fórmula falangeal é 2-2-2-2-2-2-1-1, o que significa que o dedo mais interno da perna dianteira tem dois ossos, o seguinte tem dois, etc. Os quatro membros apoiavam-se sobre almofadas atrás dos dedos da perna. Os membros anteriores eram muito mais curtos que os membros posteriores gordos, o que lhe dava uma postura invulgar. A cauda parece ter sido realizada bem longe do solo, enquanto a cabeça tinha uma posição perto do solo, provavelmente não mais de 1 metro do solo.

O crânio longo e estreito era pequeno em proporção ao corpo. Tinha uma pequena fenestra anteorbital: o buraco entre o nariz e o olho comum à maioria dos arcossauros, incluindo aves modernas, embora ausente nos crocodilos de hoje. O crânio na posição baixa sugere que o estegossauro pode ter sido um ramoneador de vegetação de baixo crescimento. Esta interpretação é suportada pela ausência de dentes frontais e sua substituição por um bico córneo ou rhamphotheca. Os dentes do estegossauro eram pequenos e triangulares; as faces planas por desgaste indicam que eles moem seus alimentos. A posição de inserção das mandíbulas sugere que o Stegosaurus tinha bochechas para segurar a comida na boca enquanto mastigava.

Apesar do tamanho geral do animal, a caixa do crânio do Stegosaurus era pequena: não era maior que a de um cão. Uma caixa craniana bem preservada de estegossauro permitiu a Othniel Charles Marsh obter em 1880 um molde que dava uma indicação do tamanho do cérebro. Esse molde mostrou que o cérebro era de fato muito pequeno: talvez o menor entre os dinossauros. O fato de um animal pesando mais de 4,5 toneladas poder ter um cérebro de não mais de 80 gramas contribuiu para a velha idéia popular de que os dinossauros eram estúpidos, uma idéia agora amplamente rejeitada.9 A anatomia efetiva do cérebro do estegossauro é pouco conhecida, entretanto, sabe-se que o próprio cérebro era pequeno mesmo para um dinossauro, cabendo bem com um estilo de vida lento e herbívoro e com complexidade comportamental limitada.

A maior parte da informação conhecida sobre o Stegosaurus provém de restos de animais maduros, embora tenham sido recentemente encontrados restos de espécimes juvenis. Um espécime subadulto descoberto em 1994 em Wyoming tem 4,6 metros de comprimento e 2 metros de altura, e é considerado como pesando 2,3 toneladas em vida. O menor esqueleto conhecido tem 210 centímetros de comprimento e 80 centímetros de altura até a coluna vertebral; está em exposição no Museu da Natureza e da Ciência de Denver.

(no one asked but I wanted to give my opinion lol)

Just wanted to point out that 99% of the sh*t Kaku's been through since the beginning of Egghead can be linked to Lucci's general lack of effort, atp he should just knock him out for his peace 😭.

And I think Kaku is massively underated. Yes OBVIOUSLY he loose against Zoro, but the opposite would have been pretty awkward.

But

1 - he was 18 at the beginning of the CP9 mission at Water Seven. We don't really know how the world government works on that matter, but, Lucci at 13 was the youngest ever agent blablabla, and they won't send someone to a loooong mission without being 100% sure they would do a good job, so that baby had the trust of his hierarchy and all.

2 - Kaku has proper social skills, and seems good at reading peoples (= lie detector). That sounds stupid, but he was perfectly blended without peculiar measure (I'm looking right at you, mister I spoke through a pigeon), and I'm sure we all thought he was gonna be the carpenter of the Strawhats.

3 - he got stronger during his infiltration, overpassing Jabra, shocking the latter. I don't think doing carpentry and occasionally kicking to the curb some pirates, even though those are pretty physical jobs, can make you gain a lot of strength (you don't shigan a beam) , so that boy has ✨ potential ✨.

4 - last but not least, he gained a full control, to the extent of awakening, of his devil fruit, in a span of 2 years.

Even though non-predatory zoans might be easier to control than predator's or paramecias, back in impel down, one of the beasts was a cow, and they weren't controling anything.

Sorry for the long rant, and thank you for taking time to read this, and the efforts you put in your blog in general ! ❤️

No, please, feel free! I'm always up for more Kaku appreciation!

But I agree with everything here, he's seriously impressive considering his age and that's never really articulated in the manga aside from all of these facts existing but we kind of have to piece it all together to see the full picture!

I'd also add that aside from getting such an important mission as a teenager, he also became one of the best shipwrights in Water 7 and that was something he legitimately earned so while I'm sure having an interest in ships from childhood helped, it also proves that he's got a lot of talent in that area, too.
