i keep posting about one piece for some reason.
if theres one thing i can see oda doing with the cross guild besides the zoro-mihawk duel, it has to be something like this. i also cannot deny how much i would enjoy seeing mihawk win and sengoku lose, but i still see narrative merit outside of it.

as the dawn approaches the world of one piece, the old guard who stood for compromise and hypocrisy must be torn down. i mean, how ironic would it be for sengoku to be defeated by a former warlord?

there's also the theory that mihawk's bounty was hinting to this? would be a cool hint ontop of it but i thought it was interesting.

... it gives perfect setup for a potential marine split, giving akainu and koby more opportunity for screen time. and it would be a nice bow on the trend of sunsetting the old legends during rogers' era.

unlike the blackbeard pirates, who captured koby and garp to make major moves, the cross guild takes the life of sengoku here. killing a former fleet admiral makes their presence in the world even crazier than capturing garp the hero.

maybe this time can be used to give insight into mihawks backstory but its not 100% needed. regardless, this clash should be eerily quick. maybe sengoku's shockwave attack makes a HUGE spectacle, but let the fight prove what makes the cross guild an emperor crew.

when things look dire, and many of the cross guild lackeys begin to beg for buggy to save them (and buggy looking like hes going to run away), let mihawk enter the fray.

this battle should feel like a parallel to the hachinsou raid. the only difference is that the odds look to be in the marines favor, not the pirates.

this siege will be the opposite of garp's attack on hachinsou. instead of an explosive enterance like garp, this attack will be used to showcase sengokus battle tactics and expertise. it will also showcase the cross guild's lack of manpower, with most of their combatants being easily defeated.

akainu will be in direct opposition to this. he'll try to command sengoku to stand down and wait for his instructions, but sengoku's pride will blind him. as former fleet admiral, no one will doubt sengokus plans even if it wasn't the right one.

but enough preamble, lets get to the main prediction: after the vegapunk incident and garp's capture, i think sengoku will use the cross guild as an opportunity to build confidence back in the marines. he already has a vendetta, but the recent fears might push him to act now.
![One Piece Chapter 1082. Yes I'm using the same screencap again but I made sure to include the previous panel with it, where he says "If this was his goal [setting up marines to be killed by desperate bounty hunters], then we've sorely overlooked the genius jester".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ckxix5bb3lh6nhczult3n4e7/bafkreid34vk674d5qfm7tbiwno24cnjycuhiribeqtps6doq7y7etvgegy@jpeg)

oda gave mihawk the title of "the marine hunter" in his past. he didn't bring it up in his introduction, marineford, or any time before recently. only after introducing the cross guild.

i believe oda has planted the seeds for this conflict since the cross guild's introduction. the most obvious being chapter 1082, but also in the direct conflict between the marines and cross guild. it's leading up to something.

the cross guild similarly sticks out from the other emperors, as their biggest feat so far is influencing someone to kill t-bone. the big three is composed of buggy (fraud), crocodile (lost to a rookie luffy), and mihawk (no major feats yet).

in an era where roger and whitebeard are dead, and garp is locked up in hachinsou, sengoku kinda sticks out like a sore thumb. the only 'living legend' that hasnt really showcased anything yet.

PREDICTION: sengoku will lead an attack on emptee bluffs and die to mihawk. 🧵

looks like i was wrong about showing lokis relationship with lola and everything. i was kinda hoping oda would reveal that loki was an emperor before shanks.
not 100% disproven but idk when else oda would showcase it.
goodbye main elbaf flashback. we'll see gunkos soon.

VERY curious what oda's going to reveal loki's devil fruit to be. i thought lokis secret fruit was going to be the hammer itself, not having two devil fruit powers at his disposal.
getting more and more confident that loki has the fenrir fruit or some sort of wolf

this is even sadder when loki had to do this when he's relatively 16 years old in giant years.

either joyboy or someone with unbelievable future sight learned during the void century that they won't be able to win, so they plan on insuring that someone in 800 years will accomplish what they couldnt.
joyboy may have tried to save everyone back then, but couldn't. thats why he apologized.
