As the One Piece series hurtles towards the final saga, the essential roles of Vivi and Sabo are about to become even more critical with the series of tumultuous events unraveled in the Mariejoise incident. Sabo, the stalwart chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army, stands at the nexus of rebellion against the oppressive World Government, the message carrier of the dying wish of King Cobra and a character that will potentially play a key role in the final arc as events unfold. Meanwhile, Vivi, the princess of Alabasta, carries the weight of her kingdom's history and aspirations.

With the events at the Reverie and her father's death, her role has extended beyond the borders of Alabasta as the inheritor of the will of D and most likely a character that will foster unity in the world of One Piece. As the final arc beckons, the destinies of Sabo and Vivi are fated to cross paths as two of the many characters that will shape the future of the One Piece world, promising revelations, alliances, and conflicts that will leave an indelible mark on this epic tale.

Vivi As A Voice of Reason in A Conflicted World

Throughout the series, Vivi is a strong and compassionate character dedicated to protecting the kingdom of Alabasta and its people. She has shown her bravery and determination in various arcs, particularly the Alabasta arc when she forfeits her desire to join the Straw Hat for her people. Vivi has also played a paramount role in the series's narrative, specifically concerning the Reverie events, the history of the world, and an unknown connection to Imu and the D clan.

Considering the importance of Vivi's character to the Straw Hat Pirates, the World Government, and Imu, she will definitely take part in the final war as the series enters the final arc. Vivi is royalty, and if Nefertari D. Lily hadn't relinquished her rights to become a Celestial Dragon, Vivi would be one of the spoilt bratty Celestials in Marijoise. However, the path her predecessor, Lilly, took forged a new path for her, but in light of recent events, this decision continues to put her in danger.

Sabo and Vivi are fated to meet right from the unfortunate day Sabo witnessed the true ruler of the world and the death of King Cobra. If Sabo finds Vivi, he will likely cross paths with Morgan. When Sabo and Vivi meet, Morgan will learn what they have discovered and would want the world to know. Time after time, the newspaper has demonstrated itself to be a powerful tool in shaping events in the world of One Piece, and this is why Morgan is a pivotal key in letting the world know the evil that lies in Mariejoise.

In this way, Vivi will learn of his true lineage as a member of the D clan and might end up addressing the world. Her royal background will make the world listen, and she will ultimately become a royalty of the D clan. Pirates like the Straw Hat Pirates or members of the Revolutionary Army might believe in a just world; still, some parts of the world who believe in the information disseminated by the World Government will always see them as pillagers and cowards. Hence, this is where Vivi comes in to relive the will of Nefertari D. Lili, the Queen who turned down as a Celestial Dragon and is responsible for spreading the poneglyphs around the world.

Sabo Will Be A Key Ally For The Inheritors Of The Will Of D

Sabo's deep connection to the two inheritors of the will of D, Luffy, and Ace, portrays how his life always seems to revolve around the D clan. Sabo's fateful encounter with Luffy's father, Monkey D. Dragon, his influential role in the Revolutionary army, and his role as Emperor Luffy's brother deeply ascertained that he will play a pivotal role in the future of One Piece. The recent events at Mariejoise and the task appointed to Sabo by King Cobra already make Vivi and Sabo's encounter in the series a requisite.

After all, Vivi and Sabo have personally experienced the World Government's evils. In Goa Kingdom, Sabo witnessed the vices that the Celestial Dragons and the World Nobles embody until Dragon rescued him. Also, Vivi shares the same predicament due to the absurd law ordained by the World Government that Emperors and Warlords should be shown reprieve in cases where they should face the law. Crocodile almost destroyed the Kingdom of Alabasta as a warlord of the sea under the World Government; hence, Vivi's resolve to seek the help of the Straw Hat pirates.

Sabo's popularity as the Flame Emperor will rally many allies, even the common people on the side of the Revolutionary Army and Princess Vivi, when the time comes. On the day, Vivi will likely address the world on how her ancestor, Nefertari D. Lili, encourages them to protect the poneglyphs to ensure the knowledge of the world's true history and bear a flag of dawn against their oppressors, the World Government. In this way, Sabo's followers will be on her side, and even her royalty symbol will endeavor to get the people to listen not only to her but also to the Flame Emperor Sabo. With Cobra's last message to Sabo and Imu's unknown but important interest in the princess of Alabasta, there is no doubt that Sabo and Vivi are fated to work closely together in the final saga.

One Piece is available to stream on Prime Video.
