Endgame depending on the final villain
Long ago in a distant land, I, Blackbeard, the shapeshifting master of darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil. But, a foolish pirate warrior wielding an ancient weapon stepped forth to opposed me. Before the final blow was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future where my evil is law. Now, the fool seeks to return to the past and undo the future that is Blackbeard.
Long ago in a distant land, I, Akainu, the shapeshifting master of magma, unleashed an absolute justice. But, a foolish pirate scum wielding anancient weapon stepped forth to opposed me. Before the final blow was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future where my justice is law. Now, the fool seeks to return to the past and undo the future that is Akainu.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Shirahoshi is guaranteed to help Luffy at some point. I can't wait to see how/why he destroys Fishman Island. After Whole Cake I fully expect this series to start answering the age-old questions it's posed from early on in the story:
-Why do devil's fruits exist/what exactly are they?
-Who IS Vegapunk and what's his deal? Even if he's just a "mega genius," it will still be cool to see his story.
-Where is All Blue/why does the legend exist?
-What are the ancient weapons and how were they used in the past?
-What happened in the void century?
-What's the deal with the moon/moon people/robots?
-Why did Kuma join the world government and give up his personality?
-What's on Raftel/what is One Piece?
Zou already gave us a taste of this and I expect the Elbaf flashback may as well. I bet MONEY Uranus is there. Well no, no I don't, I might be wrong and I don't want to lose money.

Shanks full on haki master
Dragon idc he's dead like shanks when bb gets to him
Kuma is no more he is px-insert number

Luffy's flashback had Shanks swimming and he was generally cautious about Devil Fruits. I doubt he's eaten one.

Kinda interesting that he just had one sitting around in a box...
It seems the whole crew don't have any devil fruit users
Also took his precious hat
He was going to sell till a useless brat ate it and cost them a fortune and his arm

I always got the impression the top pirates and the marines had plenty on hand.
Just wait, that Monkey guy will have a devil fruit.
Makes sense you either get a useful ability or easy cash when you need it
Even the marines keep it to give their top guys

This is actually pretty cool I always assumed that was the first shot we ever got of shanks main guys. Didn't know they were shown before

I think they mentioned they got it from an enemy ship, like how Buggy's fruit was found.

Young Ben Beckman has my favorite design in the series. Also my favorite scene. "You want to fight us, you better bring a warship"

Lucky Roo is still the coldest dude in the series

And now he might be a married man...maybe to Lola.
What is the real purpose of the Noah
What was the crime Zou commited
Shakky's past? Is she related to Amazon Lily?
Who is Luffy's mom?
Why did Dragon form the revolutionaries?
etc etc.
Seriously I could go on and on. One Piece has such an interesting world to me.
Bleach kinda also built up some cool mysteries but totally forgot about them in the end. Man Bleach was so cool at the beginning and turned to shit so fast.
I hope we get anwers soon.
But instead of answers in bleach wouldn't you rather see repetitive fights against op and broken enemies that were so powerful and broken that had to be beaten due to bullshit with characters you don't care about. Isn't that much more interesting than lore

Green arrow guy had such a downgrade on design, Yasopp too.
That's one of the best parts about One Piece, where you're not just concerned about what's happening in the present, but all the unanswered questions that we can look forward to. Where we can go ahead and genuinely try to guess what the next arc(s) will be because there's all this material to sift through. (Elbaf, Wano, Reverie, Fishman Island destruction, etc.) And of course, it's generally satisfying as fuck when it's finally answered. But hey, that's good world building for ya, which is further comforted by Oda seemingly never forgetting anything, even if it takes years to get back to.
I feel like with it's competition the anticipated shit feels more like an afterthought, where they just make it up as they go along.

I agree 100%.
Shanks' crews older designs look less to me like "look how badass they got" and more like "we're older and past our prime now." A few like Yasopp and Shanks may look stronger, but they definitely don't look as young and spry as they used to. It makes sense too if you consider the whole yonko being from a previous era thing.

I honestly think the Ope Ope no Mi and Yami Yami no Mi are as far as Oda is willing to take Devil Fruit Powers in terms of crazy uses.
Tathanen
Get Inside Her!
They'd kiss.
Also broken devil fruit.
Sugar is very over powered, but Oda added the she can't sleep or be knock out or everything is undo.
Basically a Nen Power or one of those ridiculous Stands with conditions.
It also made her not age.
Something Something stamina
So is law ability is basically one of the crazier stands or nen ability
ope ope is right
But yeah Sugar abilities is bloody random
I'm hip, but how much stamina does one need to quickly cut their bodies in half, or switch their minds, etc.
a bunch
Grr...
2020 was my bet for series end at one point, but 2022 does seem better to me, makes it a 25-year series (though obvious that doesn't fall into Oda's considerations).
You have to think of what we likely have left: getting near the end of Whole Cake Island, then the following in either order: Wano or Reverie, then an Elbaf stopover, and then you probably start moving into the endgame, whatever that entails (probably three parts: the last ditch drive to Raftel, Raftel and the fight against Blackbeard, who made it there and killed Shanks along the way, and then they go back to Loguetown and fight the Admirals and few remaining Shichibukai, plus other WG types to bring the tale up to 10/11).

It depends on how she would activate it also was Reiju able to move while her memories were edited or was it just because she tied up
blame oda that's all the answer you are going to get with a stand that makes him a god or i'm sorry "surgeon" of an area, real answer depends on his plot level
Also like rubber can turn on fire somehow
Also clone jutsu
It was probably reinforced with haki or whatever.
Everyone trying to cut it could use Haki. It covered the whole damn island.
That's beyond the perfectly reasonable other uses he had for it. Puppet Strings, Flight via invisible Spider-Man nonsense, tying his organs back together. The Birdcage is the only thing I don't like about Dressrosa.
Surprised they didn't give Zoro an opportunity to cut through that, further show that he's improving.
Also very surprised Luffy broke through Marionette.

But yasopp is shitty parenting #99 on this series. It's like a Robin & Olvia reunion.
That would require Zoro to show effort
It's whatever, it's just amusing to think about it. I ultimately chalk it up to the fruit bring much more deadlier in the hands of someone that actually has monstrous stamina I guess. Like imagine Doffy or Zoro having it.
If Zoro had it with his stamina the whole manga can be cut in half
