Hey everyone, sorry for being a couple days late on this one this month, but let's get to it! Onigashima is heating up and chapter 1000 is soon in the horizon, so ask me anything you might be interested in when it comes to One Piece and I'll answer to the full of my capacity!

What are your thoughts about the teaser at the end of Dressrosa about the Strawhat Grand Fleet? "They will be responsible for a pivotal occurrence at this age, but that is a tale that has yet to be told". What do you speculate this could be, furthermore do you think there is anything to the theory that One Piece is a story being told after the fact from this statement? To me the narrator’s viewpoint really sticks at this point

The Final War. I've been certain of it since that chapter came out and there's even more evidence to hint at that now. Some people speculated that maybe they would show up at Wano or something, but that clearly hasn't happened and I doubt it will now. I don't think that would do any good anyway, the Wano arc is already plenty packed as is. Narratively speaking, I feel the final war is the only time where this should and can realistically happen. The entire Grand Fleet coming together, especially with all 5000+ of their minions, is a massive force. It's basically the entire force of the Onigashima Raid at the moment. A force of that scale isn't something you use in a small arc to add to already existing forces, it's something you would use for something on a grand scale. The Final War just fits that, and especially with the teaser message that their actions could change history as we know it, I can't see it being anything else but the final war. The theory of the fact that One Piece is being told as a backstory is as popular as it is for any work of fiction, plenty of stories have done this twist (hell I even did it for the one-shot I posted earlier this summer haha) so it's no surprise many apply it to One Piece as well. But I don't think it's the case and I feel Oda would've framed it otherwise if he had intended it as such. The narrator is simply omniscient, that's always been the case, so I wouldn't take that as any evidence.

At the end of 992 they used Oden two sword style but only Kinemon brought two sword to the island! Do u agree that they kept their second sword at a private place?

There's this thing in fiction called "Hammerspace". It's a type of cartoon logic where items can be summoned from thin air from this separate dimension called "hammerspace" when the plot needs it. Manga and anime that take themselves seriously sometimes like to explain where items come from, hence why sheathes and weapon-carrying utensils are often seen in character designs; but while Oda does like to do that a little bit as well, there's plenty of cases where he has characters summon items out of thin air, such as with Nami's clima tact (though we've seen on specifics occasions she keeps it between her breasts or near her thighs, most of the time she pulls it out of thin air) or of course, swords. Oda doesn't really care about this type of consistency (similar example: characters losing teeth when damaged but recovering them in the next chapter, characters being inflicted scar-worthy wounds, etc.), so in this case the Scabbards just pulled out a second sword out of thin air. Or like you said, maybe they were keeping them up hidden in a private place! Only the strong will of a samurai could withstand such pain!
