Ok , so we all know that Wano Kuni Arc is coming sooner or later and the Samurai will be the main focus. A lot of people are uber excited for this arc because this will be “Zoro’s arc”. I believe Sanji will get his fair share of development this arc too.

In Punk Hazard when Nami used her Thunder Trap he was using hand signs to do a “Samurai impression” , which Usopp clearly stated was a “Ninja Impression”. After seeing her technique Kin’emon was surprised believing that she just used Ninjutsu.

We all know people from Wano Kuni have closed door politics and they do not know a lot about the outside world. The fact that Kin’emon knew about Ninja and Ninjutsu and the fact that Ninja are part of Japan(The place we all know Wano Kuni is based of) history and in a way Samurai’s opponents makes me believe that Wano Kuni is in fact inhabited by Ninja as well.

No doubt Zoro will be the main attraction in Wano Kuni. Not only does he posses the sword of the legendary samurai Ryuma ( We all know how Kin’emon reacted when he first saw it) , but he is also interested in Samurai’s way of the sword and Kin’emon’s technique. Probably he will also get to face his strongest opponent so far (Except Mihawk, he doesn’t count ) . Here are some scans that made me believe Zoro will learn a new technique during Wano Kuni. That technique will probably have something to do with fire.

Why the fu*k am I even talking about all of this? Well, as I said I believe we will see Ninja in the upcoming Wano Kuni Arc and I happen to believe Sanji will also achieve a new technique! Why? Because Ninja are cunning, tacticians,they are spies and specialise in intel gathering. Who else is like that? This guy :

Now, a lot of people believe Momonosuke is related to the Shogun and this gave me two ideas of how the Ninja can be included in the Wano Kuni Arc.

1.The Ninja are trying to kidnap or attack Momonosuke or plan to attack the Shogun ( as a subplot, the main plot being the whole Kaido situation) and Sanji will get a Ninja opponent and maybe he will observe and learn a technique related to the art of deceiving (speed related maybe , afterimages, speed clones?!)
2. Because Wano Kuni is fighting Kaido and leaving under his strong hand both the Ninja and Samurai are working and plotting together , because Kaido is to much of a thread and there is no time for rivalries. While Zoro is busy with the main plot, Sanji will disappear again ( he does it all the time) and maybe (just in case Zoro recieve some training himself) get trained by a Ninja ( not a huge training , maybe just some advice so that Sanji can create a new technique).

Luffy has Gear 4th , Zoro will probably learn something new during this arc , and after this arc we will probably fight a Yonko ( or maybe they will fight their first Yonko in this arc)… There is not much time left for Sanji to get a power up, so this is the best chance for him to get his deserved “power up”.

Other points that ( for me , of course) support this “theory/idea” is the fact that Zoro and Sanji are portrayed as rivals,equals and also I believe there’s a theme of Samurai-Ninja going on with Zoro and Sanji .( again this is just me… )

I would like to know what you guys believe. Will we ever see Ninja in One Piece ? Will Sanji get his fair share of develeopment durin Wano Kuni Arc ?
