LUFFY'S DAD: MISSED CHILD SUPPORT - MISTAKEN POWER

Revolution is not an apple that falls when it's ripe you have to make it fall and even if you can't reach the Apple Mother Nature created wind to help give you a chance most people dream of getting the Apple but not many think about what happens after as we fall deeper into the last Saga we start getting closer to the Core Concepts that Oda seems to be highlighting with his story there are certain seeds he has planted since the beginning of the series that feel like they are about to bloom and the biggest question is what kind of fruit will each seed grow into and I think one of the biggest mysteries lie within the Revolutionary Army recently we've gotten more information regarding their characters hierarchy formation decision-making and their goals but while we have so many parts there still seems to be a huge disconnect in who the almost mystical leader is and what he'll eventually provide the story with by the end of the last Saga Monkey D dragon is a character that I have been interested in for a long time now so much so that my first theories were rooted in unraveling some of his Mysteries by now it's obvious that Oda has based this character in real life revolutionaries like ch and that is something I'll Deep dive at another time what I want to focus on instead is how Oda gave us enough supporting evidence to predict what kind of role Dragon will play in the story and why he's been such a confusing character and I think I finally cleared the fog of war and mystery so if you're having trouble seeing the vision let me help the way I view the world is by making connections so let me connect you to my vision the par Vision so I think it's no secret that most people believe that dragon has to have a wind related power there's theories that he has a wind loia power which I personally do not like for a multitude of reasons but after green Bill's Woods or Forest loia Oda could give Dragon something like a storm loia which fits most of the motifs we have seen from Dragon where when he has been activated a storm also came in Junction to him and maybe we get bamboozled and dragon ends up having some sort of really powerful paramia and while we can't completely discount that it does seem the least likely given the story's emphasis on loia but also now the newly pristine level of power called mythical zoen the kind of catchall power that has made a lot a lot of people tired of its existence given how random and convenient it can be but on the other side it can be interesting if done well as well as doing something that I personally love with one piece which is giving the story another connection to real life Lord to interact with oda's mastercrafted play where he has many myths and legends around the world intertwined in this crazy pirate story and so along with a proposed mythical zo and animal power that I think a lot of people land on some sort of serpentine bird that at the mythical level functions like a dragon that ultimately has rain power or storm powers that are rooted in Wind which again works with one piece given we have seen so many mythical zoans display paramia and or loia like Powers combined with an already insane power up that gets buffed when you take into account The Awakening potential that essentially gives the characters full Reign on the Mythos of whatever animal they are which we see with kaido's dragon but also St Saturn where his yo-kai USI Oni transformation seems to give him much of the actual yokai's alleged abilities and I want to address all of that because I also want to hit with the reality that I have accepted in that the wind power seems to be an overall thematic within the Revolutionary Army it doesn't seem to be a one-off attribute only given to Dragon instead it seems like Oda has been using wind as a nuanced form of Freedom which is reflected in so many ways like how the characters operate their back stories and even their powers and more than anything I think this might be the most important clue to dissect now it's not as linear as I'm making it sound but first let's discuss the wind pattern first off like I said before it's not just dragon that has wind hours in his founding members we see separate to ivanov's hormone fruit Eva seems to have some sort of wind or air control with attacks like hellwing various levels of this attack throughout the manga makes it more than clear that it functions just like pressurized air being blasted out then similarly we see that the one offensive ability that Kuma has with his pawpa fruit is literally just compressed air into basically an air grenade creating immense wind pressure then obviously we have Monkey D Dragon who very clearly used wind in his debut at log town but want to bring the focal point to the new Chief of Staff Sabo who also has wind powers as you see before he acquired the maram maromi he demonstrates the dragon claw fist dragon breath technique that has a very interesting martial art Palm technique in the moment in dress Rosa right before he destroyed the Coliseum with what was depicted to be wind we see him use a core sensing ability not too different from when Zoro was listening to the breath of all things in alabasta it seems like Sabo targeted the core and then exploded it with wind powers and now I'm highlighting this because we know that Sabu was trained by the Revolutionary Army and namely Dragon we know that in his adolescence with Ace and Luffy he never had any abilities of the sort but after his time in the Revolutionary Army he comes out with a move like this and I don't think it's much of a stretch to say that Dragon personally taught Sabo this attack given the name is a direct illusion to dragon by it being called Dragon's breath and on top of it being wind related with breath aspect and so the reason why this is important is because if dragon's power were devil fruit related would it make sense for him to to be able to teach this ability to Sabo have we seen someone with a devil fruit directly teach and impart their ability to devil fruitless character acknowledging that we have law and Luffy doing Bonkers things with Bonker fruits mimicking corazone and Ace respectively but anyways the point gets sealed even more when you realize Sabu also offered to impart the technique to Robin who declined to learn the dragonclaw fist technique but did successfully use the core visualization aspect and demonstrate that despite not being a fisherman was able to perform fisherman karate and so because of this maybe there is more to dragon's power than it's simply being devil fruit related since it seems like he has some kind of knowledge that he has empowered his officers with for more on that you can check out my first theories on how dragon and his army might be the ones to show us interesting forms of hockey which I'll update soon with more refine details but even without all of that there seems to be something core to not just dragon and that seems to apply to basically everyone and that would be empowerment or support Sabo is kind of an outlier but I'll address that soon if we understand that Ivan kov said that the point of the Revolutionary Army was to essentially Empower people to liberate themselves and we recontextualize that to not just the mechanics of how the Army operates but also how they use their powers a lot of things start making a lot more sense see a huge conundrum has been presented to us recently in our expectation of dragon's power levels and the actions he has taken in the story even for people who had lower expectations of what he was capable of still reasonably would be asking well if he had any form of power why hasn't he used it at any Junction of the story from what the story has shown us so far it always seems that his commanders are taking actions or making sacrifices and while Oda has purposefully redacted any of the action from Dragon's influence on the story in a way not too dissimilar from Shanks prior to the last Saga now we have hit a part of the story where we are finding out what kind of punch these hidden characters pack characters like Shanks and GARP Blackbeard and the Admirals Kuma and the revs and even with all of that progression we are still left at a dark standstill with Monkey D dragon unlike some other characters in the series I personally think that we have some solid bases to at least expect an unfathomable amount of power from him and yes some of that comes from the fact that a lot of rumors say that the Declan is the one who brings a storm and dragon is basically always bringing a storm he is the main protagonist father and the hero of the Marine son he trains Sabu who is now the flame Emperor and is considerably strong but also is at the Helm of the only known operation in the one piece verse that has a sole purpose to dismantle and destroy the status quo the world government and he has been doing this successfully for nearly 30 years we have to recognize that whenever it comes to upsetting the balance of the world that's when Luffy has faced the greatest resistance at any's Lobby where he had to unlock Gear 2 and gear three just to barely come out of the battle alive and technically a Celestial Dragon pushed Luffy to debut gear 4 but this power was born out of the recognition of the Marines as this tall formidable wall that he had to overcome at Marine Ford and finally with the threat of upsetting the Yono balance another Cipher pole agent was was present and he became a huge Catalyst towards Luffy unlocking gear five and somehow ever since Dragon left the Navy this has been his enemy and they haven't even really been close to getting him since they only recently discovered his secret base in baltigo but personally I think one of the greatest Testaments to dragon's power come from the people who sworn loyalty to him Ivanov and Kuma specifically Ivanov and Kuma are both characters that have witnessed the highest level of the world's oppressive Natures they were both present at God Valley to witness and actually part participate in a cleansing event where they were being hunted down by holy Knights targeted by the Rocks crew and Roger crew is probably in the mix and Kuma as a child actually technically fought with the goray something no other person probably can say they experienced and though we have no knowledge of dragon being present he would have been 14 at the time of the event we do see GARP who reasonably doesn't bring his son there but anyways Ivanov and Kuma are not creditless characters they actually have some of the most Merit when it comes to freedom fighting and that being said this despite their respective outcomes in life ended up forever bending the knee to Dragon when we look back at impel down and Marine Ford every insane feet that Luffy pulls off when it comes to tenacity strength or leadership Ivanov gives us a portrayal that it's reminiscent of dragon saying the line the Apple doesn't fall far from the tree and we have to keep in mind that this is an Ivan COV that in a lot of ways was able to defeat Luffy at the time mainly because Ivanov knows hockey but also ivanov's subordinates Caroline was able to outpace Sanji in terms of strength and speed given how Ivanov was portrayed in the kuma flashback as well from multiple angles I can see ivanov's trust in Dragon not being substantiated and that's even more validated from the kuma side where Kuma literally saw Hellen back but to the end of his life still bet on dragon and dragon son but seeing the way Kuma saw camaraderie by the way he tested Zoro and Thriller bark he tested Zoro by seeing if he could withstand a portion of his Captain's pain and suffering and the overall understanding is that yes Zoro withstood it within inches of his life but that was what Luffy put himself through selflessly every single fight in the past and even more so in the future so was that a reflection of what Kuma felt about dragon has Kuma felt dragon's pain it was after this test that Kuma declared Luffy's friends to be exceptional and then said he is your son after all Dragon when Kuma Quantified Luffy's pain saying it would probably knock himself out maybe there was a time when Kuma had to extract dragon's pain and maybe by absorbing dragon's pain is when he realized that Dragon wasn't unfathomable existence much like what Ivanov saw in Luffy's tenacity throughout Marine Ford Luffy nearly died two or three times over but refused to until he reached his goal no matter what pain or suffering and in that position spectating Luffy Ivanov took an important position which was simply supporting Luffy and that's how we come full circle the modus operandi of the Revolutionary Army has always been toine the flame the Sparks of the Revolution and fan it until it becomes the wildfire that burns Down The Establishment they've always been the pillars of support that a revolution needs but not necessarily the revolution itself we see that in chapter 1096 where after establishing the Revolutionary army they said their plan was to act like mercenaries and lend our strength to rebellious elements seeking to overthrow their kings and I know a lot of this part sounds super obvious and if you're familiar with a game like League of Legends the next few assertions will be much easier to understand but the specific thing is that unlike Luffy who uses his strength to over throw Kings the Revolutionary Army should be operating in a way where their strength is used by the people to liberate themselves in that regard the Revolutionary Army is a tool used to support those who want to find Freedom themselves and when we look at the Revolutionary Army we see their powers reflect a lot of that and the most significant example is Bello betti who has the pump pump fruit her power literally translates to encouragement by encouraging people with words she can increase someone's fighting spirit and physical strength in gamer terms this would be an offensive buff increasing strength and to a certain extent even speed the assertion is that all of the Revolutionary Army is basically centralized around these support abilities they can typically heal protect strengthen Allies weaken enemies which that usually comes in the form of what is called crowd controls which would be like stunning an opponent freezing them slowing them down blinding them or taking away their senses another aspect is transportation so either speeding up people or straight up teleporting them and finally there is a support role that surrounds attacking and usually its pinpoint attacks playing as a decoy or executing to assist damage dealers and I know a lot of this sounds kind of foreign to a normal one piece discussion but you could classify a lot of characters Within These parameters to a certain degree you could fit most of Law's abilities within this section he has a Teleport that can Aid his allies or disrupt his enemies he has the ability to heal he can silence he has a crowd control in the form of final damage to opponents in the form of internal damage I gave law as an example because he would be what most Gamers consider considered to be an overpowered support which was largely his role on both rooftops in Dres Rosa against doflamingo and in Oni gaja against kaido and big mom and I think that foundation will be really valuable insight to compare for the Revolutionary Army because we actually see a lot of this amongst the commanders we already covered Bellow Betty but let's talk about Lindberg the scientific support archetype that has a jetpack which is one of the wind connections I mentioned earlier but in his debut he revealed the cool shooter which is essentially a freeze ray that stops people from moving and attacking but it doesn't stop there let's look at kusu the guy who looks like he just absolutely destroys everyone and everything that looks at him because he's so cool and he does don't get me wrong but let's not forget how we were introduced to him first he uses his Su loia Power by providing his allies giant croak Transportation which was shown giving Sabo a ride in the sky but also one of the coolest aspects of his powers is that he's able to provide his allies Crow accessories where Sabo wore his Su as a glove and it served as a communication device and I imagine CaRu is able to use this to EES drop on enemies and collect information which is another aspect of a support role which is information gathering and Espionage we do see that CaRu has more upfront attack abilities in the sense that he did charge an admiral with his crows but prior to that we see that he used his crows to disarm opponents potential of a loia like his and how insane loas can be he decides to use it mostly in a support fashion and this trend continues with Morley who has the push push fruit despite being a giant who created level 5.5 in impel down and is the technical first person we know to escape impel down morle did it non-violently apparently and in secret and on top of that despite the large disposition and ability to literally move the Earth we've never seen Morley truly attack anyone Morley used the power to help Sabo Escape which is utility but also despite the very simple offensive capabilities of being able to bury someone 6 feet under Morley usually use the power to disrupt and create chaos for defensive benefits and this support pattern doesn't just is applied to current members touching back on the information gathering given the Revolutionary Army Information Network that we see that allows them to maintain communication across the world we see Jenny who has a child that show the ability to wiretap and gather information too and I'm sure she had more Merit to her value to the revs that we never really got to cherish but it was because our focal point was on Kuma probably the most important character for this analysis of the commanders Kuma's power is easily the most offensive ability but it is in the hands of a literal pacifist and though Kuma has the air cannon and compression powers that are used defensively we see that primary usage of Kuma's fruit was shown to be the ability to transport people by teleporting them which Kuma uses power to save the straws from an admiral but arguably one of the most powerful support- like abilities in the story is the ability to deflect anything this power can be used to protect and mitigate damage but most importantly Kuma can completely remove the pain damage and suffering that someone has as depicted in Thriller bark with Luffy as the test subject at that point in the story we saw Luffy push himself to the point where he acknowledged that he was going to have to be Reckless to save his crew and despite that despite everything he put himself through he woke up with no problem the next morning completely fine because Kuma has another one of the most broken support abilities the ability to offset pain if Kuma were a villain he could even weaponize that pain but because of his overbearingly good-natured soul he simply takes the damage himself which in of itself is a huge aspect to being a support role the ability to tank and absorb damage something that even without his powers Kuma is willing to do due to his large body and ability to withstand more pain than others the point being that from the bottom up we see a trend in the Revolutionary Army that is pretty consistent which is that every character even when capable of more will still elect themselves to a support position all of their abilities no matter how obscure will find a utility use and become an immense tool for the true fire of the Revolution at hand and I think this is depicted perfectly at Marine Ford I think it's no secret that despite Ace having the the firef fruit Luffy was the real spark for the opposition at Marine Ford it was Luffy that on all sides of the rebellion was used as a symbol that literally lit the fire in every faction to unite from defecting Warlords like boa to impal down prisoners like crocodile to the entire Whitebeard pirate Army Luffy became the fire that needed Fanning and that is the role ianov played along with many others but initially Evan Call's prerogative was to make sure Luffy lived for dragon's sake but after Luffy threw himself into the war Ivanov witnessed his selfless heroism and couldn't help but do more in chapter 558 when Luffy began his trk towards as at Marine Ford kizaru immediately took aim at him and it was ivanov's intervention here where by blasting Luffy with a death wink Eva helped Luffy Dodge a Kazar beam to which even Luffy was grateful and Eva proclaimed that it's just their duty to make him survive but then we see it take a turn over the course of the events where Luffy's tenacity convinced Ivanov to actually betray his initial goal of having Luffy survive and instead allowing Luffy to throw his life away now so that he could live without regret and so Ivanov hit Luffy with another s tier support move the energy hormone shot that gave Luffy a literal second life and after Luffy eventually used this buff to make it to Ace and Ace had his eventual demise at the hands of ainu this was the only time when Ivanov demonstrated the next level support role responsibility to protect the carry or in this metaphor the flame being Luffy had Luffy died then all Morale on all sides would have been smothered and everyone would have treated this as a full loss but Ivanov made sure that Luffy could survive by acting as a shield and stepping up to one of the strongest if not the most actively destructive character Admiral Kyu himself and this allowed Luffy valuable time to escape and so combing back through some of the points we know how difficult the revolution can be and we have seen how Oda has highlighted the Revolutionary Army's role in successfully overcoming the difficulty it's through support but most most importantly sparking the Flames of the Revolution we saw that highlighted between Monkey D dragon and Sabo Dragon even commended the attitude which was that despite Cobra becoming collateral damage his death sparked a positive sentiment in the uprisings around the world given his connection to the world government and the attributed blame given to Sabo and Sabo says in chapter 1083 well I'm sorry to king cobra but this way suits me just fine anything that gets the Flames of Revolution burning and that's why I saved Sabo for now he is the only character in the Revolutionary Army that has pure offensive capabilities he is the one who countered Admiral Fuji Toro for example and it makes sense giving his inheritance of the fiery Aces fruit and theoretically his will but I do think it's very interesting given his role in marij ra the Revolutionary Army obviously went there to cause minimal casualties they had three missions in mind free Kuma destroy the food reserves and destroy the celestial hoof statue and when we look at those missions it was Sabo who used his fire offensive ly for the food reserves while the other commanders ran interference rather than use Sabo offensively against the Admirals they had him do nonviolent actions that ultimately were seen to declare war and the other side without directly causing deaths and despite the utmost effort in preventing Sabo from using his Firepower for violence it was the one violent action that wasn't even his fault that was used to fuel the Flames of Revolution and the Fallout created the reputation for Sabo that named him the flame Emperor which is counterintuitive to the entire operation to the point that even Sabo cringed at being called that which indicates even more so that Sabo also despite wanting to claim Ace's fruit for sentimental reasons has been operating in a way where he remains in a nonviolent supportive role thus allowing the Flames that are personally involved with overturning their own lives and chasing their own freedoms to breathe and that's ultimately the metaphor Oda has been playing with right fire is an uncontrollable mess it can easily become unmanageable let's take Roger for example due to his circumstances he didn't have much of an option but as reallyy said he was the bonfire that created the wildfire that spread throughout the world that created the burning passion to become a pirate and find the one piece and maybe if Roger saw the consequences of his actions he would have taken more responsibility but he couldn't his actions unintentionally sparked chaos for many places especially for example fisherman Island and had Whitebeard not protected the island by staking his name to it it actually could be said that Roger's direct influence caused the mass enslavement of the fisherman Race by recklessly encouraging Lawless behavior and it seems like dragon has been playing with fire the entire story carefully not to be burned and careful not to let the fire grow out of control to fast or radically that could explain why we see a character who allows others to take the Helm of their own Destinies but at the same time plays such an aloof character and I think this directly contrasts Luffy who does take it upon himself to undo the corruption in the world but Luffy doesn't do it for the humanitarian reasons which can be seen as Noble but in a lot of ways Luffy is lucky that every single time he left the place there was a competent person there who was able to clean up and provide proper guidance afterwards Alabaster with vivv skypia with ganf fall Fishman ion had a few support beams dress Roso with King rku and wano with Momo but even in that situation Yamato had taken the responsibility of staying back and playing defense while Luffy continued pushing forward in other words dragon is trying to achieve much of the same thing but is trying to be responsible for the Fallout and so then if we can understand that then it makes sense that just like the rest of his organization and every character underneath him even offensively leaning characters Monkey D dragon is most likely a character whose power will be used in a supportive role rather than an offensive role so it may be that Dragon wields incredible power much like Kuma but the primary way he uses his power is by being the Ultimate Fan to the Revolutionary flame which is why Oda has given him him wind-based Powers despite us already covering how unclear what source that wind is is it hockey is it a devil fruit or is it some kind of sorcery completely separate to all of this and magical like what Saturn showed or scientific like what weria showed the overall point is that however Dragon manifests that wind I am more than confident that he will have the same profile as a support character which may sound so lame to a lot of people but anyone with game balancing knowledge knows that any support character that ends up getting overtuned stats like law has with the OPI op no me ends up becoming one of the most powerful characters instantly I mean we know that dragon has enough win power to essentially subjugate an entire Island temporarily we know that from Ivanov who witnessed Luffy's Vitality that dragon is likely to be just as tenacious we know that when Luffy debuted his conqueror hockey Ivanov said the Apple doesn't fall far from the tree and that this is the power that explains why people are so drawn to him I think it might make sense that if you were to combine all the aspects of power within the revolutionary Army you might get a character like Dragon an incredibly durable tank like Kuma that allows him to protect an incredible orator whose words give people belief in their cause like Bellow Betty which is why we see such a devoted organization in the first place we know to a certain extent dragon is a weapons expert given Kuma's comments in chapter 1096 so maybe a lot of lindberg's Science and methodology is reflected within dragon's own Arsenal and we know that as far as offensive capabilities goes the one thing we know to expect is a dragon breath like ability that we saw from Sabo but I wouldn't be surprised that like Robin was able to learn Fishman karate that Dragon also knows these abilities too which I'll cover in another video but the overall point is that I think when we eventually get dragon revealed to us in full form we will see that he is restricted from our perspective he will have immense power and capability but use his maximum effort to protect all lives not necessarily because he is afraid to kill but maybe because it's much easier to kill and harder to protect somebody and this would be the major contrast to Admiral ainu who sees life as disposable the moment it breaks a rule makes a mistake or God forbid exists within an obviously broken system that favors the people who writes the rules but not the people who have to live by them but one teaser for the dragon power Centric video that ties a lot of this together is that I think that Dragon might be a master in the breath of all things given that there is such a huge focus on wind and air within the revolutionaries I think that making the Supreme Commander fully aware of all living things and able to sense The Core Essence of an object or person makes a lot of sense and since Sabo demonstrated the core sensibility and dress Rosa I wouldn't be surprised if he learned how to train this from dragon and I'll do a deeper dive of that as I mentioned but for now the connecting part is that the idea that dragon has an ability that makes him extra sensitive to the value of life which is what drives him so much and I thought about how reallyy said that Luffy seems to have an extremely sensitive sense for other people's emotions noting that it was probably unconscious which is similar to how when Luffy unlocked conqueror's hockey ianov said that Luffy was not conscious of the power and that it was similar to Dragon so I think it makes sense to think that dragon has the full access to that power to clarify in one piece we have had a subset of observational hockey tied to emotional sense and interesting a lot of the Revolutionary like characters that were antiviolence shared the same skill otohime being the one light that tried to bring the fisherman people to the sun she demonstrated the ability to sympathy an emotional sense the heart of a Fishman thief and hear the cries and screams of Fisher Tiger's Heart Another strong example in my opinion is Fuji Torah the one Admiral who has brazenly acted in complete counter to his Fleet Admiral's commands who is able to sense the true emotions of the citizens of dress Rosa so I think it makes sense that dragon has the final form of those Powers combined allowing him to understand people's true intentions very accurately which is probably how he was able to even recruit such good-natured crew mates that were able to withstand the difficulties of being a revolutionary Army member and it would accumulate to the point that I think the best example of what dragon will show is the same thing that Kobe demonstrated at Marine Fort a sort of Life sense being able to track the lives lost and thus would make sense based off of what we seen of dragon being so far from much of the conflict again I don't think he'll be crippled by this as Marine Ford Kobe was but I do think this will play a role in shaping his character being able to empathize like Kobe was internally feeling the sadness and the pain that war brings which would fit his pacifistic nature that was alluded to by Vega Punk it might even be the scene we see of Kobe at Marine Ford is going to be mirrored in Dragon's flashback and might be the reason why he left the Marines at such a young age but let's come back to what you came here for dragon's Powers as I was saying before I believe he will demonstrate extreme emotion sense now we have no idea what a final level of this power looks like but the other side of this is that even for a non-combative power like otohime just with this emotion sense she was able to dodge bullets fujit Tor is blind and is yet able to see every Citizen's emotions in a parade of people Kobe has climbed Beyond everyone's expectations in and outside of the story with just observation Hockey being one of his touted foundational powers and again I believe that all of these Powers actually connect to Nature the natural state of people objects living things hence why I think breath of all things is connected to Dragon despite us not having it connected in the story and I think all this technically connects to the weird observational hockey like power that Nami has regarding the weather she's able to sense the weather with her body as Viv said it early on but it's actually funny because Nami is the first character to sense the essence of dragon in log toown via the barometric pressure and I think it's because Dragon will be shown to have that same power or rather that this is the true essence of all the powers mentioned before and the reason why I think that is because of Fuji Torah if you remember he stated with that same crazy observational hockey that he has he is able to ascertain the manner of clouds above but then cheki humbles himself in old age and says perhaps these bones are growing old which ties to Nami being able to sense the weather with her body anyways I will Deep dive more of dragon's power specifically later I want to focus on the support aspect first specifically I want to tell you why I believe Dragon will be known or app called a mystical human it's actually because of the same connection between him and Nami Nami was able to sense what we know to be dragon's presence or area effect that keeps being connected to him via the barometric or atmospheric pressure change now I know that we keep tying Dragon to wind but Oda actually included the specific mechanic here of the pressure and temperature dropping at log town now this might sound technical but if any of you spent a few weeks watching The Weather Channel like I did as a kid then you start to pick up that when there's a pressure pressure drop and temperature drop that means it's a cold front that invites higher pressure and warmer air to push into the cold Zone usually this comes from the oceans and that's how you get wind and cloudy skies and the more severe it is the rush of air and pressure creates the conditions for thunderstorms or hurricanes now I don't want to act like a weather wizard here but this is probably the same case as what happened in the gray terminal instance too as we see before the fire starts the citizens note that the wind is picking up hence the signaling that Dragon would show up there too it even has the signature lines crossing the panel like at log town and if Dragon were simply just wind power when there's a blast of air that saved the citizens from the engulfing Flames if anyone knows how wind works with a wildfire it makes it worse and stronger you're literally Fanning the Flames but in this case the Flames were snuffed and the people did not mention wind but rather an explosion and let's say there was wind so strong that was able to Snuff out the fire like this then wouldn't it take the people away too and so even in this instance there's some interesting mechanics that seem related to atmospheric pressure rather than simply wind and I'll make a better case for this next time because we don't have the time for that right now the reason why dragon is a mystifying character is actually connected to two things it's Nami and baltigo so because Nami is technically the first person to sense dragon and I think dragon is going to have a similar disposition as she does as far as weather goes and it was via barometric pressure let's take a look at how Nami has used barometric pressure in chapter 192 Nami debuted a power using the high atmospheric pressure of alabasta and actually disrupted the atmospheric pressure and created mirages using strong winds yes mirages at chapter 411 we see Nami uses the Mirage again in her fight against Khalifa which she justifies by saying she created by weaving cold air and taking control of the climate of the room via the pressure and temperature and so to summarize this is essentially how mirages work in fact the move called fata Morana that Nami uses is the actual name for the optical illusions that frighten Sailors fat Morana essentially translating to illusion fairy or more literally Morgan the fairy an illusion to the King Arthur tales but to explain how it works basically by creating layers of different pressurized air you could create Illusions or in the natural setting the gap between cold air and hot air depending on the disparity between the temperatures you create a duck that bends light thus creating the Illusions and often times this phenomenon can be connected to a fog or mislike Illusion thus why I think dragon is going to be a mystical character but Jokes Aside given Oda is huge on Sailor lore and this is a pirating story and he included the real folklore of the Flying Dutchman which was realistically explained Away by the fatamorgana phenomenon that would make it appear that a ship sailing the Seas could be perceived to be in the sky due to the Mirage occurring and I think would make a lot of sense that since Nami is manipulating this via the same mechanics that Dragon seems to be able to control life like it's his own body to the point that people think he is a loia then it might be perfect to say that one of dragon's most important support Powers is literally multiplying someone like Nami did but more than anything this sounds like pure head Cannon but this could be the explanation for baltigo as well the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army that the world government and the world never could find or rather what Burgess said nobody knew about we've covered how significant this line is before but the only way to find this island was via his via card other than that it was shrouded in mystery and what I think is that it was literally shrouded in some sort of mist or Mirage see of the little we know of the island we know that it looks Pure White and it has the same wind lines that we see when dragon is present in all the other places which means that the same air phenomenon that happened at logtown and great terminal is happening here but there's one big difference the wind is here but the skies are relatively clear which would imply that it's reversed here and that the storms clouds and most likely mirages are probably surrounding the island Nami created the mirages by manipulating the pressure and if storms rolled into log Town due to a pressure drop then if dragon or someone simply maintained a high pressure Zone then the island would be defended by natural forces kind of like wano in chapter 910 we see how much of a deterrent the waves and storms were there but now Imagine a Dragon level storm but most importantly a mirage on top of everything else essentially making the island invisible to anyone who approaches unless you have a Vier card which is what Burgess had that would essentially help guide you through the fog of war and so like Nami was saying as they got closer to wano the wind got stronger and essentially the difficulty kept increasing and I think that is how dragon has defended and protected baltigo this entire time thus tying his support power to the wind power that we've seen of him to how wind has been used by Nami the weather expert and most importantly this would explain why dragon's presence was so sparing ly spread throughout the entire story see it's crazy to me that dragon has been operating the oceans as the world's worst criminal so effectively that not only did we see an early on Dragon able to sail the Seas and seems to be able to go places without any hitch but also they didn't even have a clue where his headquarters was and has been in a single spot for over 20 years so if Dragon had a stealth likee ability that allowed him to be mobilized without any worry of being pursued then this would explain a lot but also would explain why our one piece timeline we've almost never seen Dragon move logtown is basically the only time he had left but if the entire reason why he hasn't been able to be more active is because he has to stay in baltigo to maintain the shield and the Illusion for baltigo to remain safe then we have answered a huge question of why Dragon could be so incredibly strong yet unable to move on his own because a lot of people forget that he houses the refugees of the Nations he is starting a revolution for we see this in the army of children he's raised that Sabu was a part of we see this in the people he saved from great terminal we see this implied by the people Sabo saved from L Lucia dragon is responsible for the freedom of all these people and we know that he is super protective he said children are a vulnerability for any parent and we know that despite Dragon being the most wanted man he visited Luffy at least three times the time when Kuma and dragon went there and Kuma figured things out gray terminal and log town and Ian COV figured that Dragon always faced East realizing later that it was because Luffy was in the East blue so I wonder how protective Dragon would be of Sabo koala and all the kids he is directly responsible for when they were children especially on baltigo the idea that Dragon was a single-handedly the reason why the world never knew baltigo existed due to dragon's power and in order to maintain that he had to remain there and on top of that if his protections were a storm and a mirage that would mean that he had small Windows of time while the storm subsides that he could leave and adding the emot tional sense I mentioned before that could explain how despite the Blackbeard Pirates and cp0 apparently surprising the revs they managed to escape both without a single casualty all of this making Dragon an actual legendary character using the powers we know he has and applying the pacifistic disposition that he probably will have given the Revolutionary Army because remember Kuma traveled the entire world and saw tragedies unfold and constantly asked himself what dragon would do and Kuma is our Benchmark for being a kind mental soul but that didn't stop him from succeeding in all of their revolutionary activities in fact Kumo was claimed to be the hero of sorb Kingdom but in reality originally Kuma failed to free his Nation through his own immense power and dragon arrived and succeeded in almost every aspect that Kuma failed and I have to think that Dragon didn't a way that Kuma respected and if Kuma failed to free his Nation because he was too kind or gentle and yet Dragon succeeded and Kuma saw that and decide to leave with him it had to be in a way that Kuma approved of and so though I didn't give you the metad discussion surrounding what a character's power will be and I didn't name dragon's devil fruit for you I hope this analysis on the Revolutionary Army that led me to a conclusion about dragon's power profile as a character and why it's meaningful for the story was something you enjoyed I hope to get the specific Dragon power video out very soon but I do want to thank everyone for being so patient with my health situation and life and so supportive on streams and in videos honestly sometimes I feel like the old people from orbia Kingdom that had their pain taken away by the benevolent Kuma all thanks to everyone who supports me and at the same time you guys are the win to my fire the pressure that brings the storm and so just like how dragon is making changes throughout the world everyone who watches likes the video and shares it all change my world too and all I can offer you is the view of my vision and I hope this time it gave you some interesting Insight on the mystifying mystical mystery character shrouded in Mist named Monkey D dragon and so like always thank you for connecting with me and I'm looking forward to connecting with you all on the next part [Music] [Music]
