>>1870567>Namitrue, but in the sense, reaching rafter is them going around the world, really. Nami can't go back to reverse mountain and take a different route, cause then one piece will never end.
>Chopperhe'll be able to cure any disease in sense as the crew "evolves" further along the story and gets stronger; chopper will learn more medical shit and become a better doctor
>Usoppfuck yea he is, fucking God Usopp man
>Robinalso true, but Oda wouldn' make them backtrack to other islands
in a sense, the way Oda is making his story, Luffy is pretty much re-doing everything Roger did (sky island, fishman, etc.)/wasn't able to do (because of his incurable desease).
In an authors point of view, its illogical to backtrack your story; every story line is linear, in a sense. there's a start, and a finish. For writers telling a story it will take time and effort to go back and "find the missing poneglyphs and islands"; which, with the One Piece fandom's demand, Oda has to move forward.
