Thanks! As the king of shiki theories i approve. 4 more shiki theories join daks discord server in description. Eg Shiki attacked nami home island oykot. Shiki is the father of killer. Shiki roger n garp used to be childhood friends before a rift broke them up. Skiki wiped out orochi clan. Ps carrot 4 nakama dont believe the lies

Battle of " I'll be back" character Shiki vs Enel 🤣🤣🤣

Shiki should fight Fujitora since they have a lot of weird similarities (Golden Lion/Purple Tiger, No Gravity/Gravity, both are swordsmen, lacks legs/eyes but last one is stretch)

I wouldn’t be surprised if One Piece ends with us never seeing Shiki, or Uta, or the return of Enel. We’ll just copy JoJo fans and say “Oda forgot”.

10:51 "High West" potentially being the top of Elbaf's tree fucking blew my mind. Elbaf is an island in the far "west" of the Grand Line, after all.

I just love these kind of theories when dake keeps on cookin with every single sentence 🔥🔥

You have the best theories by far. Keep growing bro. Definitely one of my favorite One Piece youtubers.

I gotta say shiki with his army of giant animals being on Elbaf would be a perfect parallel with little garden having giant animals (dinosaurs). Also when you said who you thought would fight shiki, I think it would be Kidd. Kidd can also make things float and him fighting someone with a similar power could help him push past his limits for once and become stronger like he needs to be. Kidd either gives up or keeps pushing and if he can push forward after getting an arm taken away, he can push forward from getting absolutely demolished by shanks.

Great theories man. This was a fun one

This kept getting better by the minute! So many great ideas, like Shiki planting traitors into former Rock's crew member's and one of them being THATCH. Also that Apoo and Bege being abducted by floating was too coincidental to not be Shiki related as well.

My theory is that there are actually 4/8/9 ancient weapons. Please let me explain Given shirahoshi, we know the ancient weapons reincarnate. We also know the 5 elders are the names of all the non-earth planets (remember before 2006 Pluto was still a planet. Shoutout Michael E Brown) that haven’t been used by ancient weapons So I think the 5 elders are the ancient weapons who instead of reincarnating, Op-Op’d themselves into immortality I think the reoccurring symbol of the 8 dots around the sun (skypiea, sun pirates, kozuki emblem) points to 8 planets around a central sun, so it wouldn’t be surprising if the 5 planet-named things and the 3 planet-named things were a single collective of 8 planet named things which lines up pretty nicely with the 8 dots around the central dot That central dot obviously representing the sun, so then on top of that, Luffy is the 4th/ 9th ancient weapon, the sun god.

Giving animals pokemom like abilities were they can produce electricity or ignite fire, could be Oda's way of testing or hinting at Minks' electro and Lunarian durability.

Oda is not saving Shiki at all. He literally said "yeah, use him for the movie idc". If Oda really wanted to use Shiki, there would be no movie about him. That's why we will not see Shiki outside of flashbacks sadly

Yesss finally somebody who mentions the floating thing in Wano, I always wondered how that was possible. Anyways great video!

15:17 What the fuck this blew my mind AGAIN. That time Apoo floated actually being him interacting with Shiki's power would be fucking crazy. At a STRETCH you could also say that Apoo and Shiki both parallel each other by having one more pair of limbs for their arms than they do for their legs😅

Caribou being Shiki' son is my headcanon. That's the person he thought would want the weapons IMO. But that isn't the same person he was hunting Luffy's head for. That was Buggy, his idol. He was at Loguetown and then saw first hand Buggy's rags to riches story during marineford. So Luffy's head is the perfect symbolic gift for Buggy. BB was a Yonkou at the time and Luffy had been MIA for 2 years, so it's unlikely BB is the one Caribou wanted to impress. IMO Caribou will most likely give up Shirahoshi to Blackbeard, but will eventually make his way to Cross Guild and give them pluton. Barto wouldn't threaten his sempais like Caribou did to Cat and Augur. But Oda made sure to plant that idea in our heads.

25:00 also Sanji master Zeff had 1 leg while shiki lost both.

Been waiting for a good Shiki vid for 2 years lol

Awe yeah!🎉🎉🎉🎉 great video Sakasuki to u man🎉🎉🎉

I love the idea that we have the real traitor of white beards crew mixed up

W video🙌

I hope sengoku along with fujitora pull off a rescue plan to save garp fullalead is going to be a warzone

About the sanji vs shiki topic: another theory is about sanji's power. They stated that his latest powerup is about a form of energy manipulation like those of his brothers. The enery he is manipulating would be gravity (hence the name stealth black), wich would compliment this theory that they would fight

smoking before i watch this video since ik this ones going to be a banger

Really hope we get some shiki madness in future.

Dak sake I hope believe trust and pray to GOD that you’re right that shiki well come back in this time with everything we know about him in Cannon

I love how your Mind works Dak. 🙏🏾🏴‍☠️

You've single handedly hyped up Elbaf to become one of the best arcs in the series for me. Hopefully it does kive to the hype

The real lurking legend

I take Shiki's free use in a non canon film as Oda firmly saying "he is never going to be relevant". I'd be very surprised if he comes back for more than a cameo.

Pretty crazy how we thought we was kind of a meme character hes finally gonna play a big role ❤

Shiki randomly meeting Ace. So Ace what are your goals in the world? Ace-Kill white beard.... Shiki- JOIN HIS CREW NOW

I wouldn't be surprised if Shiki was a Yonko. It would be fitting that after the death of Roger eventually the power vacuum was filled by 4 Rocks pirates. As you mentioned in a previous video, Big Mom and Kaido had a similar perverted dream of creating a Utopia. You could fit White Beard's aim of building a family under the same idea of creating a utopia. Maybe what the Rocks crew shared was a common dream of a Utopia, but their vision of that utopia was different, which is why they clashed. Luffy's crew works because they all have dreams that can exist alongside eachother. As history goes, Shiki realised he couldn't get what he wanted if people knew he was alive, so he pretended to be defeated by Shanks. Actually he transported all his resources to the sky with his devil fruit. They might know be waiting at the top of the Adam tree. From there Shiki could also easily go down and spy on the giants to learn the location of Uranus.

Only few Yourubers makes theory videos on Golden Lion Shiki.

This final saga gonna have snippets of baroque works and shook is so similar🔥🔥🔥🔥

7:07 Throw away theory mid video in case it isn’t talked about- What if Uranus is a dragon of some kind? Going along with the connections you were making between Shiki, Roger, and the ancient weapons, we know that Poseidon has to do with the sea, pluton has to do with the land, and Uranus has to do with the sky. Dragons have always had some significance in the story but they are really starting to become more prominent in more recent arcs, first in punk hazard we see the man made dragon, then in Dressrosa we get to see Sabo return with dragon themed moves, and he then gets a FIRE logia, then Kaidos DF, and now this hologram dragon on Egghead. But we haven’t seen a single living dragon outside of filler or spinoffs. I think we will definitely see a living dragon at some point bc we know they still lived during Ryumas time. So where have they all gone? I have 2 theories. 1) They were all hunted down by powerful people all over the world for attacking towns. 2) They went into hiding somewhere hard to find. Both theories are vague but had to be bc either could’ve happened for numerous reasons. Either way tho, I think Uranus was a powerful dragon that could control the weather, just like Poseidon was a fish man back in the void century, and it’s way of sending its will on to the future was to hide its eggs. Which would be the egg on Rogers ship. And maybe they could’ve done something where they won’t hatch unless Nikas haki wakes it up the same way the iron giant was triggered. Long ass comment but I had to write it out even if nobody reads it 😂

9:16 hmm i forgot Fishman Island is mentioned before Raftel. Fishman island. then Raftel at Twin peaks Elbaf at little garden. Wano and Big Mom mentioned in Thriller bark. this is the list of the final islands

So in Elbaf we’re going to have (hopefully): Giants/Loki Cross Guild (with additions like Bon Clay, Doflamingo, Moria, Perona, and Weevil) Enel Urouge Shiki Kidd/Killer And on the side is gonna be Shanks vs. Blackbeard If all of these are at play, then this will be an insane arc

Laffete could be the plant for shiki in black beards crew

"Serindipitously" is insane 😂bro whipped out the thesaurus for that one 😂😂

19:42 Thatch must have ate it or BB could have just stolen it.

1. Idk if it's weird, but I get excited when Dak drops new content. 2. I can't just watch this on my phone. Gotta wait until I get home and be able to watch this on tv. The first 8 minutes were great

Shiki vs Sanji would go soooooo hard I need that to happen

You should do a video on sanji vs his bb opponent(lafitte)

i was SURE Caribou was working for Shiki... And now that it was reveal that he worked for BlackBeard I was legit devastated 😭 I hope this video is gonna give me hope 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Don't forget about Enel and his moon pirats

Dory and Broggy going out like Hodor

"Strong World" could be an anagram for "Wrongs Told R (reality)." This means that the film might be an attempt by Oda to divert attention from Shiki by using a false version of history.

You can also see elbaf as an island at the top of the tree and not the bottom like the tree in Norse mythology and also as jack and the beans when he climbed and got to the house/city of giants

Lmfao ‘Beige’

shiki: one billion lions vs every pokemon

It would be ironic if the moonlight tree’s wood is in the thousand sunny

Vegapunk's Green Blood seems to be similar to the SIQ. I was expecting this to be mentioned all video.

The moment you mentioned tatch I was done lol

Your theory that poseidon is in Elbaf makes a lot of sense..It would explain why the world government tends to stay away from Elbaf..

So... Shiki is te ''Lurking Legend''!

I like the last part of the video about usopp As we can see, the parallels between zoro and sanji both being the "devils" respectively has the title king of hell and ifrit jambe And they always fight each other 😂 So that brings to Luffy parallels with Usopp both being "gods" in some way .. luffy is the sun, and usopp is the moon (if this entire theory is right) And we had witnessed the luffy vs usopp And if the moon being the power/energy for plants to grow (literally usopp's bullets and weapon and he also a botanist) so i can see how he get the power up in elbaf (maybe not physical strength instead it will be his weapon upgrade and i hope he get use with his sniper observation haki) I also hope he becomes the bravest warrior on the sea when this happens: loki, we know in Marvel, being the mischief and trickster, and what usopp specialists on 😅 this would be some connections between these two and maybe it lead to loki vs usopp, the battle of the trickster. I also hope Brook gets power up in this arc as well... Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Robin got power up in Wano Nami got zeus in WCI Franky maybe get power up in Egghead Jinbei and Yamato already too power And that's remain Usopp and Brook In the future of the story, it will likely be a usopp vs. van auger, it will be the like the usopp fight before where mostly he win using trick and we know van can warp very fast so usopp can defeat him using trap from his weapon...In addition we can see van auger was very important crewmate for bb, he always anywhere to execute bb plan. so the fight would be crucial between usopp and van auger, usopp will be the key for straw hat pirates' success and so do van auger, who defeat first will bring the downside of either one of them... and only Usopp can see/realise what van auger is doing in secret as usopp can see as far as van auger can warp.. Usopp doing what he can same as what happens in enies lobby..and finally Usopp become bravest warrior of the sea because without usopp straw hat pirates will be dead (parallel to dressrosa when usopp defeated sugar)

Just wanted to say, Gaimon also has been stuck for 22 years, including the timeskip for him!

One other funny comparison that you didn’t mention…luffy defeated shiki using THOR hammer - yet another reference to Norse mythology. I’m totally on board with shiki hijacking the elbaf arc and I’m all for it.

@DaksSake what do you think Oda will do with Uta, do you think she’ll be limited to a Shanks flashback or be a part of the current story somehow (personally I’d bet on a massive Shanks flashback but I’m curious since she’s the only other movie character besides Shiki who is technically canon)

Shiki baby.

What did you get your anime clips from

galaxy brain: it will be Sanji AND Zoro VS Shiki.

I feel it'd be interesting if Shiki was inverted from the movie to be a good guy, while the prince is inverted from the One Piece trope to seem like the good guy but actually be the bad (or at least misaligned) guy.

Shiki and his crew are the Proto Beast Pirates

0:45 until Zoro almost cut his feet off to fight the wax fruit user

My personal theory is carboo is spy of shiki and he was snet by him to investigate on ancient weapons and he now has information about 2 of them and even now he is saying he is Blackbeard fan and will tale him about ancient weapons i think shiki is sending him to bb crew to get information what's he is upto

People seem to forget that the giant robot is also an ancient weapon and luffy is the driver

If this means that doctor fartshoes is canon I am so happy

I actually think Prince Loki will also parallel Boa. If we follow the trend of arc parallels Elbaf will parallel Amazon Lilly, so Snake Princess/Prince Loki makes sense to me. Elbaf will also focus on all the gods of One Piece. God of Thunder Enel, Sun God Luffy, Celestial Dragon gods (b/c Amazon Lilly,) Lunarians, Big Mom and her God homies, and even God Usopp. Also since Amazon Lilly leads into Impel Down I’m thinking Elbaf leads into Skypiea for some reason yet to be explained. I’m at least expecting Luffy to recreate the Skypiea party scene as Nika. Also great vid as always.

what if dragon doesn’t have a weather devil fruit but he has uranus 😂

No one ks going to talk about the fact that Bege's ship has been lifted into the air when he entered the new world

Shanks. Yonko armada is the giants army, the most powerful in the world! Idk how I didn’t see it earlier!

You cooked here

I said the same thing 2 days ago...where's gold lion..

The problem is that any appearance by Shiki in the present part of the timeline is going to confuse any casual fans who don't understand that the films aren't canon to the anime series. On top of that, even for viewers who ARE aware of the separation between anime/manga and the films, anything Oda-sensei does with Shiki is automatically going to be compared to Strong World, especially if it bears ANY similarity at all to the events of that film. For those reasons, I suspect that all we will see of Shiki in the canon storyline will be in the past (specifically, the God Valley flashback). If I'm wrong and Oda-sensei DOES decide to use him in the present, I think he will make sure that Shiki's plans and methods are DRASTICALLY different from what was seen in Strong World just to avoid comparison as much as possible.

I’m not gunna lie - Shiki is just someone I don’t need in the final saga. I feel like the characters and plot threads we have set up already are fine and that bringing in something new so late will just take away from what little time we have left in the story. The straw hat crew already doesn’t get the screen time they used to. I don’t want shiki. Keep him in the lore and the movies!

Something you forgot to mention that lends extra credence to Uranus being atop the Adam tree: You already mentioned Poseidon is god of the seas and was found underwater, and that uranus is god of the sky and will be found in the sky. I’m surprised you didn’t mention Pluto is the god of the underworld and that Pluton was found underground.

Shiki vs Usopp confirmed

I've been tossing around a shiki theory for a bit now. Since yorki never died(on screen, so he's probably just squirreled away by oda) AND shiki's past is unknown pre rocks. It's highly possible yorki became shiki after discovering his crew got wiped after seperating. Not to mention the cryptic coverpage that everyone seems to think is Shiki OR Yorki... So yeah Shiki is just Yorki's evil phase.

9:00 biggest reason 👀💀

I think if cross guild red hairs and strawhats are all there then shiki big mum and enel can be challenged by luffy shanks and Mihawk respectively don’t know who fights who but it’s a idea to show off everybody’s powers before they fight each other

I feel like Shiki v. Zoro & Sanji would be crazy

I see Shiki… I click

Ain't no way my man considered Lanji fighting and beating Roger and Whitebeard's equal

1000th like ✌🏼

Another relation between sad and siq is the phonetic pronunciation. Sad, and "sick"

what if shiki has the last rode poneglyph

BB Inspiration is the will of imu sama just like imu sama BB was looking for power and wanting to control the world

12:36 by that logic i think the royals from elbaf probably the family of Loki might know about the location of Uranus which they would just follow it as God of wind or something like God of sky and it's worshipping place have been passed down till generations n now it's known to Loki the current Prince or king now maybe of giants dthe young king n straw hat will likely save them or something n that royal family will just share it with them like how sukiyaki n Neptune did

still we don't know who was the lurking legend on wano. was it odens father?

Im pretty sure the floating thing for the sumo Mach was revealed to be a kite in an SBS, could be wrong.

ussop will become a great warrior of the sea via sniping shiki and his floating fleet out of the sky

So shiki is kaido with a different directer

Shiki is the Peter pan of one piece

ODA SAID HE USES THE MOVIES TO TRY OUT IDEAS FOR THE MANGA !!!!!!!

"trust me bro"

20:00 Very interesting theory, I thought maybe Thatch could be an Cipher Pol agent hiding inside WB pirates and it could be a plot twist on Teach taking Thatch out before he could run with Darkness DF but its also interesting if Thatch was Shiki's agent as well. As for why I thought Thatch was agent, because despite being commander, he wasn't from original old crew of WB, he joined later like Ace so we don't really know if Thatch was send there to spy after WB pirates become famous or not, Thatch wasn't there since day 1 like Marco, Jozu or Teach.

Hmm interesting 😅

People just won't learn with this Shikki nonsense. Oda is pushing Blackbeard to be the final hurdle. He doesn't care about Shikki...
