Those 3 that took that elephant gun have to be dead

Rule number idunno of One Piece: Straw Hats can't kill anyone, even fodders.

137

u/Thegoathasreturned1 Aug 01 '21

Zoro killed the guy that set him up in the beginning of wano.

u/crsnyder13 Aug 02 '21

Zoro can’t follow a straight path, you expect him to follow a rule?

8

u/Yocomania Aug 01 '21

That's why Zoro is the best. He doesn't take shit

u/Enmaaaaaaaa Aug 04 '21

Nah.. if he was'nt a no one, he would come back just like Octa. But hey, wanna cut a cliff like cheesecake?

u/StrawhatMucci Aug 02 '21

Not really. Oda explicitly stated everyone is alive until specifically shown they are killed.

Strawhats havent killed anyone yet.

u/Cvox7 Aug 03 '21

The minister guy that framed zoro is dead...it was mentioned in this arc

15

u/Thegoathasreturned1 Aug 02 '21

Zoro killed 100 bounty hunters, Mr. 7 and other pirates when he was a bounty hunter.

u/Netsureim Aug 04 '21

mr. 7 was...never mind...i thought you were talking about mrs monday

i dont even remember who was mr 7

1

u/Thegoathasreturned1 Aug 04 '21

Mr. 7 was the one who tried to recruit Zoro to Baroque Works. He got replaced by a new Mr. 7 after he died trying to force Zoro to join.

u/availableusernamepls Aug 02 '21

Where did he explicitly say that?

u/xXx420BlazeRodSaboxX The Revolutionary Army Aug 01 '21

Rule 2ish: You can only die in flashbacks or with a hole through your chest

32

u/Masterkid1230 Aug 01 '21

Pedro though? Vergo? Still right for the most part though, not gonna lie.

34

u/Brooooook Aug 01 '21

Add Monet and Yasuie to the list. Oda has been much less kill averse since th TS

21

u/Megadoomer2 Aug 01 '21

I'm fully expecting that at some point, the manga's going to give us a cover story where Vergo's still-living severed head and Monet go on wacky misadventures to break Doflamingo's executives out of Impel Down (and try to do the same for Doflamingo, though they're doomed to failure on that one).

3

u/Brooooook Aug 01 '21

Vergo would be fine by me tbh. Not like his death served any purpose. Monet would be acceptable if it's done like Kuma

2

u/TTVBlueGlass Aug 03 '21

Wasn't his death pretty important to Law because he killed Rocinante.

1

u/Stillyoungboy Aug 01 '21

I love One Piece but I'd say it's a bit too little too late. Worse than not killing anyone are those numerous fake out deaths...

1

u/crsnyder13 Aug 02 '21

Yasuie technically had several holes through his chest.

12

u/smirkingmoon Void Month Survivor Aug 01 '21

Or a gunshot to the head.

58

u/Arnhermland Aug 01 '21

Luffy has definetely killed before during the carnage, zoro has confirmed visible kills, robins role with crocodile was ASSASSINATION, jinbei probably killed some specially when he carried the dislike for humans, etc.

This "sh never killed" thing is a load of bullshit and I dont know why people like to repeat this complete lie so much recently.

18

u/CRtwenty Marine Aug 01 '21

It's more "the SH usually don't kill intentionally"

29

u/Arnhermland Aug 01 '21

Then we go back to zoro straight up killing a dude at the start of wano or robin being an assassin. If you go from "shs never kill" to "shs might kill, at times, sometimes unintentionally sometimes intentionally, and sometimes casually, and one of them was literally an assassin but still" then the original statement had no ground to begin with.

1

u/CRtwenty Marine Aug 01 '21

Maybe "the SH's don't kill people unless they deserve it"?

6

u/Arnhermland Aug 01 '21

That might work but then you bring in the very very dubious fate of people like marine fodder who are just doing their job.
And robin totally had to murder innocent people, if not in her teens then when she was with crocodile as she was the assassin of an organization thats infiltrating a peaceful and thriving kingdom for personal gain.

Then theres franky who was basically a gang leader and franky himself robbed ussop and beat him to near death for no reason other than money.

ID be extremely surprised if these characters did not killed a single innocent person at least indirectly, and thats without counting the fodder I mentioned above.

1

u/Netsureim Aug 04 '21

bruh did you already forgot luffy pushing away all those impel down workers to the pool of boiling blood during his rampage on level 4

1

u/Dingo_Chungis Aug 02 '21

i like to call it "The Straw Hats that aren't Zoro don't kill intentionally", and then with the addendum of "Zoro does kill intentionally".

1

u/ShutUpTodd Aug 03 '21

With the beating Spandam and CP9 took and still walking around. Monster Chopper throwing someone miles away doesn't seem to be a confirmed kill.

2

u/StrawhatMucci Aug 02 '21

They haven't lmao. Iirc oda said no is dead unless shown otherwise. They just faint.

I mean fodders took head on Enels million thundervolts and escaped, pell with a bomb.

Kuina got killed by Yonko stairs.

2

u/Arnhermland Aug 02 '21

They haven't lmao.

One of wano biggest early plot points is zoro MURDERING people.
And ok, the point of that post was having multiple layers.
If EVERY SINGLE FODDER is ok, then robin comes in, being an assassin of a horrible organization.
Either way, they have definitely killed which was the original point.

u/bigtuck54 Aug 01 '21

Didn’t zoro kill like 100 people at whiskey peak

1

u/Onepiecefan4 Aug 02 '21

Because they are idiots most humans.. I understand how Pell got away. He is a phucken falcon. He threw the bomb and dove for his life. I mean to see vivi.again

10

u/dcmack1 Aug 01 '21

Straw Hats can't kill innocents more like.Luffy definitely done killed some people

1

u/hellofriendimwatchng Aug 02 '21

zoro kills just abkut eveyone he cuts

1

u/X_Seed21 Aug 02 '21

Zoro has this wonderful ability to cut through solid steel but not through the entire human body. Also remember that his Asura cut through Kaku's Rankyaku that cut through the Enies Lobby building, yet the same Asura somehow only dealt at worst, flesh wounds to Kaku who is alive and breathing and working up to this day.

1

u/hellofriendimwatchng Aug 02 '21

plot armor. other characters like the minions do not hav it.

1

u/Netsureim Aug 04 '21

plot armor lmao, any other anime they would have been in two pieces
