u/HanataSanchou Pirate Mar 16 '24 edited Mar 16 '24

I know a lot of folks are rolling their eyes at this cover story, but remember Oda almost always has a story tie-in planned for these:

  • Buggy's Crew Adventure Chronicles - Fills in the gap for Buggy's whereabouts after Orange Town Arc, up to his return as an antagonist in Loguetown
  • Diary of Koby-Meppo - Koby and Helmeppo's growth and tutelage under Garp, before their eventual return Post-Enies Lobby
  • Jango's Dance Paradise - Jango from Syrup Village and Fullbody from Baratie eventually come under Hina's service. We see them again in Marineford
  • Hatchan's Sea Floor Stroll - Hatchan's meets up with Camie and Pappag, all important figures in the Sabaody/Fishman Island arcs
  • Wapol's Omnivorous Hurrah - Wapol regains his status after Drum Island, and the role he plays in the Reverie is one of the most clutch in the story to date
  • Ace's Great Blackbeard Search - This of course culminates with Ace and Blackbeard's fateful duel, but Ace also visits Lulusia Kingdom along the way and meets a young Moda. Moda survives Lulusia's eventual fate and enlists in the Revolutionary Army
  • Gedatsu's Accidental Blue Sea Life - Gedatsu works with Koza's uncle to build a hot spring resort. While this has not had a story payoff just yet - this island is connected to Alabasta via tunnel, and very well end up being a safe haven if the WG decides to target Alabasta directly. Also, while Pell's survival was made clear in Ch. 217, his appearance in this cover story was his first since the explosion.
  • Miss Goldenweek's "Operation: Meet Baroque Works" - We catch up with key members of Baroque Works since the Alabasta Arc, who of course play various important roles in the Impel Down and Marineford Arcs
  • Enel's Great Space Operations - Finding out there was life in space at all was one thing, but that mural of course has huge historical implications about the One Piece world that we might just be starting to get into now
  • CP9's Independent Report - This one's always been an oddity to me. Perhaps you can assume that the WG decided it was better to have CP9 continue to work for them rather than continue to risk losing assassins, but this cover arc didn't really set that up at all.
  • Straw Hats Separation Serial - Of course fills in the gaps for what the crew went through while Luffy tried to save his brother, and eventual timeskip
  • From The Decks of the World - The world learns of the Straw Hat's latest exploits, which includes us getting updates on old friends/enemies. Not sure if Oda will keep doing this now that we've met Big News Morgans proper.
  • Caribou's Kehihihihihi in the New World - shows us how Caribou ends up in Wano, by way of an ass kicking from X Drake. Drake had attacked this very same island pre-timeskip, with the intention of drawing Kaido's attention.
  • Solo Journey of Jinbe, Knight of The Sea - Jinbe had stated that he needed to settle affairs with Big Mom before joining the crew, and this is his journey to do just that. He discovers a poneglyph along the way and recruits Wadatsumi for the Sun Pirates. All of these things play a role in the Whole Cake Island Arc.
  • The Stories of the Self Proclaimed Straw Hat Fleet - We were already directly told by the narrator that the fleet as a whole would be part of a huge event, but the various members have already done things that may have wider implications
    • Cavendish and Bartolomeo bragged to journalists about Luffy's exploits after Whole Cake, contributing to his first Billion bounty
    • Bartolomeo cut down one of Shanks flags, an unforgivable act in the pirate world that is bound to come up again somehow
    • Sai and Leo acted as protection at the Reverie for their respective kingdoms, ultimately getting involved in a huge incident with the Celestial Dragons
    • Ideo and BlueGilly's respect for one another may have inspired their respective tribes to handle their differences differently, we'll have to see
    • I'll be quite surprised if we don't see the New Giant Warrior Pirates come into play in the Elbaf arc. Hajrudin is noted to revere the original Giant Warrior Pirates quite a bit, and both he and Stansen are shown to take their country's traditions pretty seriously.
  • "Gang" Bege's Oh My Family - Not sure what Oda might be planning with this one. Between Lola, Chiffon, and Pound's experiences with the Straw Hats, there's no way they'd be anything but future allies. However the current motivations of the Firetank Pirates are unclear, and Oda has all the options in the world on what to do with them next.
  • Germa 66's Ahh... An Emotionless Excursion - We learn that although Germa 66 escaped Totto Land, Niji & Yonji weren't so lucky. Reiju and Ichiji eventually rescue them and Caesar.
    • Caesar linking up with Judge again leads to them reminiscing and us getting some MADS history. We see some of Vegapunk's inventions, but NEO MADS is also formed, which will surely come into play in some fashion.
    • Kuzan and Van Augur had simultaneously attacked Chocolat Town and kidnapped Pudding, explaining Kuzan's absence during the Winner Island battle

As seen with the most recent cover arcs, Oda no longer has the same luxury of time when it comes to these stories paying off. We're seeing a lot of these things have implications in real time, so I expect Oda is whipping something way more than just Yamato going on a stroll. She could have an Enel type of experience where she stumbles upon some kind of ancient lore/mural that reveals something key about the Void Century/Ancient Kingdom. Blackbeard might decide he can act on the information about Pluton immediately, and we see the beginning of an attack/infiltration. If Big Mom/Kaido aren't truly finished, maybe this is where we get the first hints of that.

Dude you cooked. Even if some of them don't have the pay off yet, we know Oda is patient about revealing info to us. Kind of besides the point, but when we see Smoker again it's gonna be hype

really hope we see him again

I want Smoker to get some serious traditional off-screen powerupping and so he can lay down some absolute justice when he comes back. Ideally with Coby.

Same, we saw Tashigi relatively recently, Smokey can't be too far behind...

I'm definitely betting on Blackbeard Pirates pulling up to Wano looking for Pluton before this cover story is over.

The Firetank Pirates could end up on Elbaf given Lola's history with Loki. That, and I suspect if Big Mom is somehow still alive, she'll end up there as well.
