'One Piece' Manga Chapter 838 Spoilers and Speculations: How Would Luffy Defeat Cracker?
ByStopping from where the manga left off, fans of the famous "One Piece" cast their predictions and theories. (Spoiler Alert!) Cracker will still be going down despite using his devil fruit as Strawhat Luffy overpowers him.
The last chapter left off in a battle between Luffy and Big Mom's son, Cracker. Most theories and suggestions ends up hahving Cracker defeated by the Captain of the Strawhat Pirates, Luffy.
A thread started by user hebilea in Oro Jackson was a prediction contest that will span from August 25 to August 31. A comment from Le-Sanna stood out saying that Luffy will defeat Cracker using the second form of his Fourth Gear. This would be after Cracker survives Luffy's King Kong gun attack.
Additionally, it is speculated that Pound will help Nami and Luffy get out of the seducing woods and they will then move to Big Mom's location in the Whole Cake Island chateau. On the other hand, the emperor (Big Mom) will receive the news that Cracker is defeated.
Luffy, Nami, and Pound will then meet Sanji at the entrance of the chateau where they will also meet the Vinsmoke brothers. They will be informed, however, that Sanji still needs to attend the "Tea Party".
Despite all these predictions, however, there are objections saying that it will not be logical if Luffy defeats Cracker with only the Gear Four Gatling Gun. Overpowering Cracker means that the Strawhat Pirates would be above the top-level pirates and it would not be logical, according to a blog post in Manga Drone.
Furthermore, it was noted that Cracker is stronger than Doflamingo and it was difficult for Luffy to defeat him. Also, a Red Hawk attack did not go through Cracker's defense when it even made Doffy cough out blood. It is possible that people are underestimating Cracker which is what the author, Eiichiro Oda, wanted people to think.
