Review of Episode 977 of One Piece Anime

At last, the traitor who always failed the samurai’s plan is revealed. An unexpected incident occurred in episode 977 of the series One Piece. In the present day, Akazaya Nine samurai are at Tokage port waiting for their comrades to fight against Orochi and Kaido but unfortunately, no one appeared and it seemed like their plan was revealed to the enemies beforehand. Unfortunately, they didn't know that they had a traitor among them. When their plan failed everyone began suspecting that they had a traitor among them but they had no option because they were about to get ready for the final battle. Their enemies are outnumbered and they can't fight against 30000 people but still, they are determined to fight. They begin their journey to Onigashima on a small boat to fight alone even though they know that their plan will eventually fail but they still want to avenge their late Lord Oden. While they were on the boat everyone’s suspicion grew and they asked Kinemon to find the traitor first and then proceed to battle but Kinemon refused and said that he won't want to suspect his friends with whom he shared happy and sad moments and he regretted that he couldn't help the person who was forced to spy. He apologized that he couldn't understand the circumstances under which Orochi and Kaido forced that person to act as a spy and to betray his friends and his Lord who helped them a lot. Though it is not a big surprise to the people who have already read the manga still it was a big shock to me when I learned for the first time that the traitor is none other than Kanjuro. Of course, it is a big surprise to everyone for example if the traitor would have been Kawamatsu or Ashura it wouldn’t have been a big surprise but Kanjuro’s betrayal is a shocking incident which I think many might not have handled well. I won't say it is the most tragic thing but it is one of the shocking revelations of the One Piece anime history. When I first learned that Kanjuro is the traitor I couldn't believe that he is but when he told his original name and he belongs to the Kurozumi clan then I understood that he is a traitor and collaborated with Orochi to betray Oden from the beginning. When he revealed himself everyone was in a state of shock, I think most of the audience would have been too. When Kinemon slashed Kanjuro I felt a bit relieved but honestly, he is more sneaky than anyone could ever imagine. He didn't ride with other members of Akazaya Nine rather he remained on the Tokage port waiting for a chance to kidnap Momonosuke because he got an order from Orochi that he has to kidnap Momonosuke and reach Onigashima as soon as possible and to kill the rest of samurais pirates of Animal Kingdom arrived and their cannons were pointed at the small boat carrying only six samurais who only want to avenge their lord’s death. When all hope was lost then the main protagonist of the anime arrived. They are none other than Straw hat pirates and their captain Monkey D. Luffy but this was only the beginning because after that Heart pirates and their captain Trafalgar D. Water Law appeared from the seawater to save samurais from sinking due to the impact of canons and from the opposite side Captain of Kid pirates, Eustass Kid appeared. Now the top three Pirates of the worst generation appeared and are ready to fight one of the biggest battles after the Paramount war that happened 2 years ago at Marineford. This war will eventually change the fate of the world because in this war not only pirates are involved rather samurais of Wano Kuni are there who are trying to change the evil fate that had bestowed upon them around 26 years ago in form of Orochi and Kaido. The fate of the whole country is involved in this battle. If Ninja-pirates-Mink Alliance fails then the land of War will eventually be turned into hell and there will not be any hope for its people in the future and if worst generation pirates succeed in defeating Kaido then you might be seeing the new Emperors of the sea in the future. So till now, no one can say what will happen in the future but still can say one thing is sure that there is a lot of action and suspense in the future episodes. You might be getting to know more and more surprising events.
