The epic battle between Ace and a mysterious Shichibukai had a domino effect, significantly impacting Luffy’s journey and story going forward.
Ace’s fame and legacy
Before Luffy became famous as the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, his brother Ace had already made a notable name for himself throughout the One Piece seas. One of the main reasons for this fame was his memorable battle with one of the Shichibukai. Unfortunately, this event is something that fans will probably never get the chance to witness.
However, mentions of Ace’s adventures after he left Dawn Island have been briefly mentioned in the anime and manga. In particular, more in-depth details about these exploits are explored in the novel “The Story of Ace” by Sho Hinata. In the past, Ace had a fierce clash with Jinbe, fighting for five days straight until both were too exhausted to continue.
The mysterious Shichibukai
In addition, the recent chapter 1100 of the One Piece manga also highlights how he disrupted the balance of the pirate world. It turns out that the battle with Jinbe was not the only important battle that Ace had with the Shichibukai.
The story takes an interesting turn with the mention of Ace having defeated one of the Shichibukai, leading to Kuma’s appointment to the position. This victory of Ace over an anonymous member of the Shichibukai organization is a fascinating mystery in the One Piece universe. It hints at an epic battle that fans may never get to witness.
The battle with the mysterious Shichibukai
Ace’s defeat of a Shichibukai had a significant impact on the world of One Piece. As the Shichibukai are considered to be extremely powerful pirates, used by the World Government to maintain peace and balance the scales between the three great powers at sea.
Kuma taking over this position, after Ace’s victory, was an attempt to keep the World Government’s image intact in the eyes of the public and the other Shichibukai. This decision had profound implications, including Kuma’s crucial role in rescuing Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates on Sabaody Archipelago.
The domino effect
Kuma’s being made a Shichibukai had a domino effect, leading to his confrontation with Luffy on Thriller Bark and the subsequent rescue of the Straw Hat Pirates. This chain of events could have originated from Ace’s battle, significantly impacting Luffy’s journey and story going forward.
Although Ace was no longer alive to witness the consequences of his actions, his actions were the tool that paved the way for Luffy to become the Pirate King. Even after his death, Ace’s impact on the One Piece world continues to resonate.
Additional details
There is some speculation about who Ace might have defeated in his battle with the Shichibukai. Some fans believe that it could have been Crocodile, as he was the only Shichibukai at the time who was not a Devil Fruit user. Others believe that it could have been Doflamingo, as he was the only Shichibukai who was not present at Marineford.
Ultimately, the identity of Ace’s opponent is a mystery that is likely to remain unsolved. However, the fact that he was able to defeat a Shichibukai is a testament to his strength and skill.
Conclusion
Ace’s battle with the Shichibukai was a pivotal event in the One Piece story. It had a significant impact on the world of One Piece, and it also paved the way for Luffy’s journey to become the Pirate King. Although fans will never get to see the battle itself, it is still a fascinating and important part of the One Piece lore.
