#fuck Akainu

[v-67]

One Piece spoiler alert!!

I saw Rengoku's character and I was like aye. This guy. He's my favourite. And what did they do? They killed him.

I saw Ace's Character and I was like aye. This guy. I ADORE HIM. And what did they do? They killed him.

And they killed him when I clearly DID NOT EXPECT HIM TO BE KILLED.

I didn't expect Rengoku to die as well 🥹😭

But back to Ace.

I genuinely genuinely like Ace so much. He is such a beautiful character and the bond he and Luffy share.

When he was at Impel down and Luffy went to save him. And when luffy almost died. And when luffy went to the place of execution and rescued him. That particular panel after the sea prison handcuffs came off of Ace. That panel. He tells Luffy that he never listens to what he says and that he's always been like that (w a sweet big smile on his face)

That panel is my absolute favourite. I could've screenshot it but it looked absolutely best when it was playing.

That panel and the one where Ace and Blackbeard fight. The part where they show Ace fully zoomed in with his power as his background. Oh my god. Loved it.

I cried so much when that happened. The part where he saved luffy and ... :(

I fucking hate Aakainu.

Stupid asshole.

I love Garp tho.

After that they made me cry more by showing their past

Sabo🥹😭😭😭

And the way Ace died, with a smile on his face.

And I was also very sad that he questioned his existence like that, I kept being like, hey. I want you to exist. And of course you matter. Anyone who thinks otherwise are pieces of shi.

I'll continue on this text later, it's vvvv mixed up.

But I was writing this because Luffy is at Dressrosa rn and Mingo has held a competition where the winner will get Ace's flare flare fruit and I was just plain mad at that shit.

A little part of me hoped that somehow Ace is still alive.

ALSO WHITEBEARD IS THE TRUE PIRATE, THE BEST PIRATE EVER IN THE OLD ERA.

damn, i'm missing Ace like a mf today 😭

My poor poor baby boy

[quaggyday]

Ace's death is a tragedy because it was both preventable and inevitable

After like a thousand episodes of an impossible goal of rescuing Ace and losing thousands of lives in the process, at the last moment everything goes to shit because if ONLY he had just ran with his family. If only he had just swallowed his feelings and got the hell out of there to live another day

But like

Of COURSE Ace would never run from a fight, something shown time and time again. Of course he would defend Whitebeard, the only Father figure in his life to tell him "You deserve to be here" and showed again and again he loved Ace no matter what. Of course Ace would put his love and pride all out for somebody he loves, its simply who he is

And of course if Luffy, the crying baby brother who told him he needed him around was going to die in just seconds Ace would give up everything for him. His own pride got him in this despairing situation, and he took the consequences by saving his brother for another day because that's what big brothers do

What Akainu did was basically playing Ace's worst weakness, a weakness that came from a government that normalizes hunting and killing kids for just existing with things they can't control. And the fact that Akainu wanted Ace and Luffy dead not because of any of the crimes they did as pirates, but because their Fathers were technical criminals is what honestly makes this more of a gut punch of cruelty

Luffy and Sabo better get the chance to punch avenge their brother eventually

Seven Warlords of the Sea

*edit: because I like an idiot forgot Akainu didn't actually want the warlord program destroyed 😭

the real reason that Akainu *should have* voted for the destruction of the Warlord program is, besides them being filthy pirates, they were also just fucking embarrassing.

Like pathetically, how did we let this happen, embarrassing In the amount of time we have known them, between the 12 total Shichibukai;

4 of them got their asses beat by the same dude (1 of them before he even became a warlord)

2 of them went on to openly work for/ with said dude

1 of them literally fell in love with and actively sabotages efforts to apprehend this same dude

At two separate points they have actively tried to recruit (and succeeded once) the sons of two of their biggest ops.

Not to mention how 1 of them also got their ass beat by said dude's brother and then they would lose 3 more on the same day over the war for the life of said brother who was the same son they tried to recruit

2 of the Warlords would then go on to harbor/ mentor a member of this dude's crew and the dude himself! Arguably when he was the most wanted criminal alive. While the member that should have been the most robotically compliant protected the dude's pirate ship with his life.

They got played four different times on a world stage by 4 different members and 3 of said times all involved THIS SAME DUDE!

2 of the times involving the take over of a country that was then foiled by said dude while the marines did nothing.

They've had to imprison 2 of them and brainwash a 3rd

They've had to shop for replacements 7 whole times just in the span of 3 years

At no point have all seven members attended a meeting. Hell Hancock has attended not a one.

During the months before their disbandment there weren't even 7 of them! there were only 5

They are pretty sure 1 of them is fucking an emperor, 1 of them was working for an emperor, 1 of them might be (it is unconfirmed) the illegitimate son of a now dead emperor and another is protected by The actual fucking Dark King.

They literally had to fire Moria for being a fucking embarrassment

And one of them is a fucking clown

that would go on to recruit 2 other former warlords to create a guild that encourages the hunting of marines for sport and rise to the ranks of emperor.

Of course Akainu hates their fucking guts. They are quite literally the stupidest group of people he has ever had to work with in his life and they seem to bring out new levels of previously unreached stupidity in the marines! Just a cesspool of failure and incompetency trying to call itself a program.

95% of the reason Sengoku retired was to get away from these fucking idiots. He was drowing in the sea of paperwork Mihawk alone was causing not to mention the rest of their dumbasses and Akainu isn't about that life.

And that brings me to reason number 184 of why Akainu *should have* voted yes on disbanding the warlords

dealing with the fucking paper work storm and international incident that hit Sengoku's desk everytime Mihawk decided that needing to be fucked outweighed being subjected to an idiot. Nah Akainu needed them gone like yesterday.

We love it when genderbends almost barely change from the OG designs 👌🏻 👌🏻

I may take a crack at making my own take on some fem!admiral designs but I do actually like the ones Oda sketched lol

[theprodigypenguin]

17 y/o Luffy @ the Paramount War: Man what is your problem, why are you coming after me so hard, I don't even know you!

Akainu, through angry tears and grit teeth: Your dad broke up with me over snailphone!

[mugiwarafan]

what is it with (ex) admirals and putting holes through people's torsos

[andreawritesit]

Sometimes I watch Marineford arc and I'm hyping Luffy up like "Go Luffy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and the other times I'm like "ACEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

Justice (2023)

[black-grulla]

why do i feel like Akainu would run like this...like, normally

[spiralingemptyness]

remember my bc of saying ‘shanks and ace are brother’ ….well I kinda have an idea

Shanks bumps into Garp while he’s moving baby Ace, convinces Garp to let him take Ace and let him take his brother to hide/lay low, bc they Marines are after him as well.

Any marines or bounty hunters that try to get his bounty don’t live to tell the tale, protective big brother making sure nobody harms his younger brother.

Shanks later meets Beckman, who wonders why a sad teen parent is carrying a sword and a child, later Benn finds out that it’s Shank’s brother they’re orphans and likes Shanks idea for future pirates. Gains a trustable crew, who knows vague details about Ace and Shanks situation (known that he had a Captain, Family(crew), and Home that he lost all at once, but not specified that it was Roger’s crew).

Gets a more consistent/stable-ish home for Ace, everybody loves Ace and would die for him. Ace learns stuff about haki from Shanks and gets trained in a basic way to defend himself, finds out his preferred method of kicking ass is with a fist or a knife. Garp still manages to tell Ace who his father is, Ace ask around finds out he’s the ‘devil’s child’ and that whole scuffle goes down. But instead of that being left to simmer over years, Shanks finds out his thoughts in feelings over being Roger’s kid, Punches and threatens Garp, reassures Ace that he is loved and everyone is thrilled he’s alive, tells stories about his father when they’re alone (crew still doesn’t know how that goes down)

later meets Luffy, he becomes a little brother to Ace, by adopting himself into the family… yknow Luffy doing Luffy things. Whenever they’re docked, Luffy and Ace would play around the island or chill at the bar with Shanks, Makino, and the rest of the crew. Just like Luffy, if Shanks does something to piss them off, they go to Benn. Luffy eats devil fruit, Shanks gets a panic attack, while Ace is both fascinated and confused. Bandits are still assholes, Ace doesn’t hesitate to pummel their heads into the ground. Shanks loses his arm still, Ace holds a little contempt over Luffy, but can’t help but be worried for his brothers.

yadadada, Ace eventually goes off on his own joins whitebeard, meets up with Luffy, has his spat with Blackbeard that ends up with him in impel down, DOESN’T die at Marineford, gets saved by Luffy and Shanks, Akainu gets his fucking ass BEAT for even thinking he can attempt to kill one of Shanks brother/sons without consequences. Stays with Shanks and Luffy, after getting stitched up by Trafalgar, to further recover from injuries and malnutrition from Blackbeard, Impel and Marineford.

oh and Teach gets threatened by Luffy and Shanks that if you go after Ace again, you’ll die and they both of them will go after him at some point. Luffy may be the younger brother, but his protectiveness rivals Ace’s.
