The most meaningless sacrifice in one paragraph

Summary

• Ashura Doji's victim in the Wano -Landsbågen felt unnecessary and anti -limactic.

• Little Oars Jr.'s victim during Marineford's Paramount War did not help Whitebeard Pirates win.

• Smiley's victim of Caesar Clown to spread toxic gas was meaningless, as his plans were eventually hindered.

Victims is a common narrative device in the world of shonen manga/anime, and eiichiro oda's A bit is obviously no exception. Throughout this series of extensive driving, many prominent characters have given up something important, even their lives, to save someone else, and as a result, these moments became some of the most influencing cases in the whole story.

But not every scene in A bit may be as meaningful, as Some characters' sacrifices feel completely meaninglessWhether it is because they failed to achieve anything or because it felt like they could easily have been looking for another, more sensible solution instead. This is not an extremely common event, but it has already happened a few times in the series, and these are some of the most unfortunate examples.

Ashura doji

His sudden victim did not even stop Kanjuro

• Debut: Chapter 920 (Manga), Section 910 (Anime)

As incredible as Wano Country Arc was, many fans still criticize for their unexpected and unoccupied deaths, and Ashura dojis Victim is a perfect example of this issue. Shortly after the nine red scabbarders recovered from their injuries, Kouzuki Odin appeared in front of them, and he was the first to realize that Kurozumi Kanjuro was trying to fool them with one of his living drawings.

Ashura Doji did not hesitate to deal with the false Odin to quickly get him out of the room, but he immediately turned up some explosives that killed the pink-haired Samuraians. While he obviously acted without thinking, the room was filled with many completely recovered and strong Samurai, so that they could certainly have come up with another way to get rid of a drawing and its explosives without losing anyone. The worst thing is that this was just a distraction, and the real Kanjuro attacked the nine red scabs shortly after Ashura Doji's anti -limactic victim.

Small oars Jr.

The Whitebeard Pirates lost the Paramount War despite their victim

• Debut: Chapter 554 (Manga), Section 463 (Anime)

Marineford's Paramount War was a world -changing event that resulted in deaths of many relevant characters, but there was a special victim that felt rather pointless. The ancient giant known as Small oars Jr. Was severely injured during the battle (especially after Gecko Moria stacked him through his chest), and yet he used the last of his strength to carry one of the Whitebeard pirates' battleships into Marineford Plaza.

After successfully, the massive ship carried through the barricade Little Oars Jr. of cannons and fell on the ground, seemingly unconscious. The problem is that this tactic despite his efforts was not enough to help the Whitebeard Pirates win the war, which ended with the deaths to both Portgas D. Ace and Whitebeard themselves. Strangely, it was never confirmed in the story of small oars JR died or not after his victim, so the fans are not even sure if he is still alive.

Smiley

Caesar Clown intentionally killed his biggest experiment for nothing

• Debut: Chapter 668 (Manga), Section 594 (Anime)

Most A bit Fans have forgotten one of the most unusual characters in the series, Smiley. This was a gigantic pet that Caesar Clown created when he forced a bunch of toxic substances to “eat” Sara Sara No Mi, model: Axolotl. Of course, this bizarre experiment was all part of his plan to make money from underworld figures by selling them deadly chemical weapons.

In order for his Shinokuni weapons to work, Caesar Smiley fed a strange candy that killed the creature, suppressed his devil fruit forces and spread his toxic gases throughout the punk experience. This heartless victim was not only a complete waste of a completely good devil fruit, but it was also for absolutely nothing, because the straw hat pirates and G-5 marines could stop Caesar's plans and forced him to admit how to cure those affected by smiley's poisonous gases.

Ryunosuke

Was he just Kanjuro's cruel jokes?

• Debut: Chapter 803 (Manga), Section 752 (Anime)

One of the most absurd but funny scenes in A bit occurred during the Zou Arc, when Kanjuro used his devil fruit forces to draw a cartoon dragon by the name Ryunosuke And bring him to life. Wano Samurai and Straw Hat Pirates rode on their backs to climb through Zunesha's legs, which took the bad thing a lot of time and effort.

Fortunately, and thanks to Stråhattens encouragement, Ryunosuke was able to climb all the way up to Zou before returning to his original drawing form and left his new friends in tears. As fun (and strangely emotionally) as this scene is, it felt pointless when it was later revealed that Kanjuro was a traitor all the time, and that he intentionally tried to move with the nine red scabbors and their plans. This meant that he could easily have made a much larger drawing instead of getting poor Ryunosuke suffering. Getting the straw hat pirates to be fond of him before turning him into a drawing seems like a great joke afterwards.

Hody Jones

Sacrificed his health by taking energy steroids, and Luffy defeated him anyway

• Debut: Chapter 608 (Manga), Section 527 (Anime)

Hody Jones Was the most important antagonist at Fish-Man Island Arc, and as such he decided to use a special drug called Energy Steroids so that he could confront Monkey D. Luffy and his crew. When consumed, these mysterious pills greatly improved their physical strength, so Hody became an unrecognizable beast after overdose on them.

Despite his impressively newfound power, he could not defeat Luffy in this new form, as the Straw Hat pirate had become much stronger after the hope of the two-year. The worst thing is that Energy Steroids had a very dangerous side effect that Hody was not fully aware of: he quickly aged to the point where he became a weak old fish man who could not even stand without a sugar cane. At the end of the day, this was a stupid victim who didn't help Hody Jones or the rest of his crew.

Tsumergeri guards

The most funny and insulting victim in the series

• Debut: Chapter 196 (Manga), Section 120 (Anime)

The Tsumergeri guards Is a group of special Arabasta warriors who only remember by fans because they were the stars in one of the most unfortunate and insulting scenes of the entire series.

The TsumeGeri guards sacrificed their lives to become stronger and confronted Sir Crocodile … who used his sand-based devilor power to avoid all his attacks and flew to a roof so he could wait for the hero water side effects to kick in.
