Eiichiro Oda found both a friend and a direct competitor in the form of Masashi Kishimoto. One Piece has often taken inspiration from Naruto and vice versa. Letting go of hostility, a friendly competition was accepted between the two that let their works grow in fame as each chapter came out. Kishimoto’s work is one that has inspired many. Whether it is the heroes or the villains, even the powers; a lot can be found inspiring.

Oda is not one to shy away from the same. He wanted to take inspiration, much like any other renowned mangaka. There can be the biggest things and even the smallest ones that give the much-needed push. However, the ability that took birth from that also gave way to a terrifying villain.

Since the time skip, Roronoa Zoro, the swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates has grown significantly strong and has proved it multiple times in One Piece. He has defeated some of the strongest characters in the series and has earned the second-highest bounty in the crew which has now achieved Yonko status.
Roronoa Zoro – One Piece
According to the manga’s storyline, Zoro recently defeated Rob Lucci, considered one of the strongest World Government officials in One Piece. And now fans hope to see him fight against Sir Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro, one of the Five Elders who is also a swordsman and has ties with the Wano country, just like Zoro.
However, V. Nusjuro might not be the toughest opponent Zoro might face. There is one other antagonist in the story who because of his powers might force Zoro to take Sanji’s help in defeating him. This character is none other than Shiryu,...

Released in South Africa on 15 November 1951, Cry, the Beloved Country was among the
very first feature films of Sidney Poitier‘s long career. The then 24-year-old plays Theophilus Msimangu, a reverend who assists fellow minister Stephen Kumalo (Canada Lee) in nurturing his ill sister and locating his son Absalom (Lionel Ngakane), who has left without contact. Their cause takes them through Johannesburg and the newly imposed apartheid system, exposing its layers of injustice and dysfunction.
Cry, the Beloved Country is novel in its presentation of black African perspectives some 15 years before the civil rights pictures of the 1960s, such as Poitier’s own Look Who’s Coming to Dinner and In the Heat of the Night. Those two films are likely to feature in any retrospective of cinema and race, but not Cry, the Beloved Country.
Why is that? Well, the pacing is deliberate; characters speak at length and often about banal details.

Oaks appear 14 times in the King James Version. A place of nourishment, a place of offering, for angels and idols alike, a place of shelter, for Absalom the sometimes favoured son a place of betrayal. I go to the Bible for The Old Oak because it transpires as a series of didactic vignettes, something timeless in its testimonies. That name for pubs not uncommon, often believed to be adapted from The Royal Oak. That tree too gave succour, that Charles from Cromwell after the battle of Worcester. A different English Civil War than the one in Ken Loach's most recent film.
'Civil war' carefully. The story, such as it is, the story of a pub, a place, specifically two within it. Tj, portrayed by Dave Turner, Yara, by Ebla Mari. Loach often uses nontraditional actors, untrained, the proximate, and in that sense moments in the Old Oak are perhaps more.
