Recent discussions on the r/OnePiece subreddit explore several major theories about the overarching plot and endgame of the series. Fans are debating why Shanks left Luffy behind despite knowing about the Nika Devil Fruit, whether the Straw Hat monster trio will team up against Imu, and if Blackbeard's prisoners will trigger a Marineford-style Final War.
Calculated Plans and Deliberate Parallels
Oda carefully plants details far in advance, such as Shanks' crew chatting about Luffy in chapter 1054 to foreshadow his transformation.
Unanswered Questions in Character Motivations
If Shanks knew about the Nika fruit in the first chapter, it remains unclear why he did not take Luffy with him to protect both Luffy and the fruit.
