[Theory] "Ricky" Could Be Kyros Or...

[zerosama]

Kanjuro, the friend of Kine'mon that was left behind in Dressrosa and was captured by Doflamingo. This page could be a hint.

The commentator said he's wielding a sword and "he doesn't appear to be a samurai from Wano". Notice how he said "doesn't appear" meaning maybe it could Kanjuro but in disguise. He also said normally gladiator's receive a sword and shield training yet "Ricky" is only using a sword which normally the style for Samurai. I'm still thinking Ricky's most likely Kyro's, but we should also consider that this guy could be the captured friend of Kine'mon. He's one of the reason's why the Straw Hats came to Dressrosa.

he didn't seem captured

but they introduced a lot of characters, so who knows

Ricky is Burgess. He enjoyed the tournament so much that he entered twice.


OR


He is Vivi. She met Iva and let herself be transformed by him so she can join the crew and on top of that, win the Mera-Mera no mi for Luffy (her captain).

Haha,lol,wait what?
For a reason,I believe Oda is going to give an active role to Kyros in the story,from what we heard till now he seems to have a fitting personality for this arc.I think it's plausible that he is Kyros,he seems to be very experienced in the arena.
I don't think it's Kanjuro,his sword isn't really samurai-like and he doesn't look like a samurai guy to me.

IMO it's Kyros because all the dialogue hint towards that. Especially since that's (sort of) the same dialogue they had when Kyros was introduced.

Oda knows perfectly well that his readers will think this "Ricky" is Kyros, which is one of the reasons I think it's not him. I actually believe "Ricky" is Kyros' son or student.

Oda knows that we think Luffy will become the Pirate King sooooo.......

OT: That makes sense. So who do you think would be stronger? Kyros or Ricky?

Kyros will be stronger.

A swordsman who fights with out using a shield is one of samurai ways. It could be that Ricky is Kanjuro. It would fit in in the plot. How the situation would be if Luffy fought Ricky and turned out that Ricky is Kanjuro and Kinemon watches this fight?

However, it feels like Block B will take few more chapters to 3 or 4 chapters to end and there will be like breaks in next chapters, and next chapters on the sides of team Nami and team Law.

I feel Oda will keep Block C that includes Luffy for later.

I'm sticking with my guess of Ricky being Kyros.

In the next page, I think a guy did say something about the battle technique of Ricky being familiar. :snick:
