Chapter 1061 of ONE PIECE holds many surprises for the straw hat pirates, but also for the readers. Finally, the protagonists meet one of the most mysterious and anticipated characters of the manga, a character that could order a significant change of pace in this last saga. but Eiichiro Oda may have come up with other surprises.
In the same chapter, a location on an island near Egghead is introduced. In this naval base there is Helmeppo from the SWORD who asks Pringe Grus to ask the Seraphim to rescue Koby, the captain kidnapped by Blackbeard in the previous chapters of ONE PIECE. By his side is Hibari, a new character never seen before. However, the girl has one peculiarity.
As Sandman points out, always alert to certain information about the world of ONE PIECE, Hibari speaks with the Hiroshima dialect, so it is a special way of speaking that is recognized by Japanese connoisseurs and unfortunately gets lost in translations into other languages. But there is another character who speaks like this: Akainu.
Not much is known about Akainu, whether he is married or has sons or daughters. Considering that Oda doesn’t pick specifics at random, that’s it It’s possible that Akainu and Hibari are related in some way. The two could be father and daughter, generic relatives, or simply born on the same island. What relationship do you think the two characters have? Maybe we’ll find out in ONE PIECE 1062.
In the latest chapter, Hibari’s Japanese language style is inevitably lost in translation. It’s called “Hiroshima dialect”, same as Akainu. Considering that only those two characters speak that dialect in OP, Oda might be implying that Hibari is Akainu’s daughter or something. #OP1061 pic.twitter.com/i095D7uftw
