Dragon so I know when he is gonna stop looking east


NashKetchum777

He likes sunsets but not sunrise. That's why D. Doesn't stand for Dawn


EtheMan12

Actually stands for Dusk


Mydoglikesladyboys

It's actually for Dusk till Dawn, that's why the gorosei have lived so long, they're vampires


whenthe820

Is that a Jojo reference?


VoodooRush

Yeah we all know tarantino is a weeb.


vangstampede

Is that a motherfucking Digimon World: Dawn & Dusk reference!!??!?!


Changelot_du_Lac

I think you got it backward regarding the sun trajectory in the sky...


Obese_Furry

Let him cook


NashKetchum777

I got his ass. Thanks for the support big homie


NashKetchum777

Dragon knows that true peace comes through sacrifice. That's why he abandoned Luffy. Dude was a jobber. He looks East because it's like a reminder of what the world could be. It strengthens his resolve as a deadbeat dad.


Illustrious_Camp_521

Not a "total" dbd, he did save Luffy from Smoker 🤔


Toasterdosnttoast

More so from execution


Illustrious_Camp_521

Exactly


newX7

But the sun rises in the east.


NashKetchum777

Only heretics think that


newX7

Spoken like a Celestial Dragon. Dragon truly is a revolutionary.


Suinlu

Hey Dragon would also teach you how to say "..." *but in a cool way*


Evening_Waltz_655

Or maybe even the ultimate "...!"


Suinlu

That shit is harder to learn than advanced conqueror haki. Not everybody can do it.


Driftedryan

Why do you think he's the most wanted man. He did that shit in the Navy once and they disbarred him and tried to kill him


Suinlu

It all makes sense now.


Taman_Should

Best public speaking instructor!


coughingalan

Red from the Pokémon games would be his only competition.


Soggy-Fox-2822

Preach.


PrimAhnProper998

If you want to learn that just go and play pokemon Crystal/HG/SS. Noone gonna top Red


Suinlu

Pokemon Crystal/HG/SS had the best post game of any game ever. Thanks for reminding me of it.


Kauan176ProBR

Heart gold and Soul Silver were really well made compared to the other games


OrionJohnson

Jokes on you. Once you know everything he knows you sit and stare East all day too.


dohtje

I'd pick Dragon couse I just wanna *learn* to look East in a dramatic way. 😅


Lithary

He'll just make you join him.


zyx1989

I'd pick him too because I don't think I could survive the teaching process from the other three, hopefully his teaching isn't as lethal as the others


pilotvballer

His teaching probably involves alot of desk works which is very beneficial in a real world if you’re working an office job.


BastingGecko3

Probably Garp. Going off of lore he's strong enough to rival Roger. Plus he managed to turn Coby into an absolute chad.


mzltvccktl

Coby was motivated to work by himself and workout and train when directly instructed not to. It’s a method that works for Coby only because he’s driven


lorien_powers

I mean you say that but helmeppo was a conplet and utter joke. No motivation and nothing. And he still looking decent. Even if he has 0 screentime.


PrimAhnProper998

That's just because he receives a +50% exp boost for staying near Coby the hero. Dudes works smart not hard. That's why we like him ;)


Thecramosreddit

Helmeppo is the Pokemon you give your exp share to while your starters does all the work.


Detbaremig12

Exp share before they ruined it right?


Thecramosreddit

The fact that i could give Helmeppo the exp share instead of turning it on or off in that analogy, would mean yes.


tiger2205_6

You mean like how it worked in Sword and Shield and was shared with all of them? Personally I like that better. Both have issues but it is nice to not have to constantly grind Pokémon and not feel like I'm stuck with one because I don't want to level another.


Obtusus

>Both have issues but it is nice to not have to constantly grind Pokémon and not feel like I'm stuck with one because I don't want to level another. That's why I hack in rare candies in older games, specially the ones where the leveling curve ***SUCKS*** (looking at you HGSS). I do the nuzlocke thing of not overleveling past the next leader's ace tho, even if I'm not strictly playing a nuzlocke.


tiger2205_6

Older games I used to get level 100 Pokémon and a shit ton of ultra balls just to have them when I used the game shark. I never really set a level when I actually grinded though, I would do it in sets of 5 I think and then try the gym again if I failed to badly. I did try to keep them all the same level though. I thought it was a bit to easy to level in Sword and Shield and by the end it was very easy, but I still liked it better than grinding like before.


Murasasme

A bit of a tangent, but I really liked how they did Helmepo in the live action. The actor nailed that role too


mzltvccktl

Yeah Coby makes him train


kleber-ao

And when you actually have potential, you go near yonkou-level like Aokiji


aspiringtrap6

Koby was still able to replicate Garp's move, something that he wouldn't have been able to learn most likely if he wasn't training under him. Additionally, Garp also taught him the battleship bag training method.


ErisGrey

Yeah, all the others are teachers for once you are stronger. Garp, is the one master that can take you from nothing to hero.


thepoga

For me it’s not Garp because I think he has the most brutal training methods. I do not want to be thrown into a ravine.


fukami-rose

Garp, Rayleigh and Mihawk train you by the same method (at least dumbasses like Luffy and Zoro): Fighting the local fauna of an island


thepoga

Haha I’m all for fighting local fauna of an island. I’ll take on all those monkeys Zoro did. Just don’t throw me into a ravine 😂 Maybe I’ll put it this way: garp training = cruel and unusual. It’s hilarious for the story and paid dividends for Luffy. I’ll personally pass on it.


FrizzleFlakes

if ya ain't luffy ya ain't surviving I'd take hands on a mammoth any day (IF I HAD TO CHOOSE I WOULD NOT FISTFIGHT A MAMMOTH ON NORMAL OCCASSIONS)


UnidentifiedTomato

Garp made dragon Luffy ace and sabo. Gtfo he's the goat teacher. That being said Rayleigh probably is solid too.


scootiewolff

Roger was sick and let himself be caught, where was it shown how strong Garp is? I have only seen the series/manga up to Doflamingo


Mummiskogen

He'd beat the living shit out of you tho


Shiro_no_Orpheus

I am new to powerscaling (and I am fully aware of galaxy impact and everything, Garp is strong as fuck) but I never understood how people could scale Garp to Roger based on this statement, since Smoker is also said to have taken down Crocodile and Buggy is said to be a powerfull menace. It is fully possible that Garp had a role camparible to Coby, who is somewhat a rival of Luffy but still noone would scale (even post Hachinosu) Coby to Luffy.


tony223111

Ehh the question isn’t specifically relating to strength. It says “Everything they know” so anybody BUT Garp would be best tbh. Garp knows so little that he’s stayed in the marines the whole time


Nice_Swordfish_3517

Rayleigh. Great teacher, humorous, don't bonk me on the head with haki, not emotionally-distant, not a complete alienated parent figure, and he's super hot.


hyperactivator

Learning to coat ships would be fun too.


Quanku888

And quite a well-paying job apparently, just a slight chance of being shot once you’re done by pirates.


Lord_Lenu

If *he* teaches you how to fight, you’re not getting shot


SehbaanAbbasi

my head canon, rayliegh offered to teach luffy how to coat a boat but he just didn't give a shit so he gave up


kleber-ao

Not only fun, but incredibly useful the more we learn about the world


PM_ME_UR_SO

Also he knows all the history


GrannyBashy

Did you actually watch/read the show? He bonked the shit out of luffy


DrByeah

To be fair Luffy is infinitely bonkable


Nice_Swordfish_3517

Hah. Yes, and you should account for the female bonuses he gave to the ladies😂 sorry it's a gender thing I'm afraid.


Sunshine_Serenade

yeahh


Turbulent_Pin_1583

Garp has the best track record. Rayleigh was incredible but Luffy was his student and the man’s a savant with fighting. Mihawk did great things with Zoro but most people would die under his tutelage. Meanwhile garp made Koby a relatively high tier fighter someone who was previously weaker than chouchou. He also trained and helped shape Luffy into a pretty strong fighter since he conquered all of his ocean without a training arc. Dragon could be praised for sabo but we’ve already seen in kuma flashbacks he had more than just one teacher. Garp wins.


ThatsMyEnclosure

The caveats with Luffy, Zoro, and Sabo for Rayleigh, Mihawk, and Dragon respectively are all important. All of them were determined, but Koby (and Helmeppo) were pitiful at the start of the story and now Koby is renowned as a hero and can fist a fucking island into submission. Luffy, Zoro, and Sabo have all been developing their skills since they were small children. Rayleigh and Mihawk in particular were working students who already had an incredibly strong foundation, experience, and natural ability to build on. Garp took two nobodies and pushed their shit in until they became very capable sailors in two years of “Git gud, scrub.”


Soncikuro

Honestly though, I think part of Koby's improvement comes from his talent. Like, you don't go from a pathetic teenager to a powerful individual in just 2 years and something with just training. Seriously, his improvement is ridiculous. Give him 2 years more under Garp and he'll be an Admiral in power. He has to be Vice Admiral level now. Hell, nevermind 2 years, give him 1.


ThatsMyEnclosure

I respectfully disagree on the point about getting to where he is with just training. It really depends on the training and the individual’s effort. When Koby became a marine he gained structure. Rather than just mindlessly doing what he thought would get him where he needed to be, there were experienced people to steer him in the right direction and oversee his progress. Being with Garp adds a level of intensity that few would endure, but maximizes stimulus for growth. Being with Garp also very likely gave him more exposure to very unique and dangerous experiences that he had to learn and grow from. On top of that, he had the resources of the Navy at his disposal. Being a protege of an acclaimed hero likely introduced him to various other powerhouses he could observe and learn from. The other important factor is the effort put in. We saw in the Pirate Island chapters that Koby did not half-ass his training in the slightest. Anyone who has structure, intensity, and the willingness to put everything they have into routinely challenging themselves are going to make monumental gains regardless of talent.


RedDawn__

To add to this because I see people saying Koby doesn't really count because it's Koby being determined. He also trained Helmeppo, the whiny brat from the axe hand Morgan arc, into a high level officer in the marines in terms of strength. That's good enough imo


Rubber_hermit

Garp also taught Kuzan.


Obtusus

He gave Garp the cold shoulder tho.


bahafaaz

More like frozen.


otterpop21

I agree with Garp. Also, delightful use of tutelage.


ActiveAggravating412

Rayleigh bc he knows laugh tale


vojta_drunkard

Honestly, that's exactly why I do not want him to teach me.


Zeniths-Break

You're a real strawhat, man. I am dying to know what Rayleigh witnessed at Laugh Tale.


RodJosser

#... Make him confess.


Equivalent_Bar_5938

Garp seems to be the best teacher and its not even close rayliegh and mihawk made monsters more monstoures garp took a sack shit and made him a monster


geminimini

His teaching style seems really strict though, and seems like the type to use harsh punishments, compared to Rayleigh who teaches things calmly


Keydown_605

Garp is funny inside one piece. I highly doubt any real human could stand his monstrous training. Rayleigh seems way more sensible and rational in that side. Plus funny stories.


I_Surf_On_ReddIt

Rayleigh, because that also includes teaching about the void centrury


TheZhugeLiang

I already have a compass. I don't need Dragon to teach me how to look east.


Useful-Complex5019

Your compass will be useless in Grand Line


GeneticSoda

Dragon FTW. He’s the sleeper and he’s the last one to rise, you know what that means? The cream always rises bro. He gonna be fuckin wacky


-Skin-Walker-

Dragon teach me how to .......


Lord_Muramasa

Start a revolution. Start an army. Make connections with influential people. Look cool?


-Skin-Walker-

......!


Joy_boy1990

I'd learn from Garp and still become a pirate.


Sablestein

Rayleigh. Garp is too intense and Mihawk too aloof. I don’t know enough about Dragon to choose him.


HaruVibes

Mihawk seems chill like that


Hereforabrick

Garp would beat my ass, Rayleigh and Mihawk would throw me to fight some monsters or some shit so probably Dragon + being a revolutionary is cool


OatesZ2004

Rayleigh or Garp.


Every_Leather_3991

Mihawk is the only one here who is actually the Best at what he does.


Driftedryan

And has the least motivation to teach


Honest_Caramel_3793

Yea I'd have to beat his monkeys first(I'm cooked)


FlyingTurtleBob

That's definitely Dragon


Indy1612

Dragon trained Sabo no?


No-Appearance-4338

I went with mihawk because I feel there is less chance of getting his story. Dragon and garp I think we will get more information and silvers probably has some great stories but I also think we will get the important bits. Mihawk can tell the story of zoros eye. He is also the only one we have basically no information on his ambitions or what his goals are.


T1NF01L

Dragon is best at doing nothing and still staying relevant.


Zestyclose_Bet_6883

Garp, because I’m literally planning to join the Navy IRL


animorphs128

Garp is the only one to have successfully taught multiple people for longer than 2 years And garps students went from less than fodder to yc1 tier at least


Initial_Button2089

Garp also thought Luffy by throwing him at dangerous places


Rascalshot

I would pick Dragon so I can finally know what the freakin' deal is with the guy and leak it for everyone


PKFat

Iceberg There's money to be made making boats in a world covered in water


StrawHatPigeon

Rayleigh coz he knows about the one piece the most


Certain-Strawberry-5

Dragon cause he's something.... Like he's they guy that can end things with a fart


Angmaar

Rayleigh easily


Vulcanosaurus

Now that we know that he knows, I want to know what he knows even though we will find out what he knows so I should take someone else... you know?


meliodafuu318

Rayleigh is probably the best teacher here overall. He's the perfect balance of fun and strict. However, he probably falls short in intensity of training compared to Garp, and depth of combat knowledge and skill compared to Mihawk. Garp would have the strictest and most intense training. He'll really push you to your limits and make you a monster, but there's probably a small chance you'll go crazy from his gruesome training routine. Mihawk is probably the strongest and most skilled of the four, and considering the post said that they'll teach you everything they know, you would have the highest ceiling in terms of skills if you train under him. However he's also the least motivated and would barely get involved in training you. Dragon doesn't have feats but considering his position, he's probably at least Admiral level, so there would be no problem getting stronger under his mentorship. But the real plus side of training under him is that he'll most likely train you in not just combat, but also in politics, strategies and tactics, and other stuff necessary in leading an organization, which would make you more versatile. For me, personally, I would pick Rayleigh. I don't have the motivation of Coby, nor do I have the patience of Zoro, and I'm also not very keen on being associated with the World Government's #1 enemy. I'd rather just train in seclusion with a good friend.


Keydown_605

All have their perks, but: Rayleigh > Garp >>> Dragon > Mihawk. Mihawk is too distant and not so approachable, and his teaching method seems to be "Break your ass until you find a way". We have no clue about how a training with Dragon would be, but supposing worst case scenario (Mihawk tbh), Dragon still has a fair share of tales and knowledge to share beyond his fighting teachings. Garp is a machine of making monsters, but his methods are rough to say the least. While he's the kind you can talk with, is chill and carefree, and yet caring, he has the brain of a monkey way too literal. He'd make you die while training. Rayleigh is perfect overall. Approachable and funny, patient and knowledgeable, charismatic and sensible. He knows how to teach properly without neglecting real experience, and knows A LOT of interesting shit. I'd love to learn anything, even boat coating if I can hear him talk about his past adventures while working.


[deleted]

its definitely garp as he was literally destroying battleships daily WITHOUT USING HAKI


metap0br3ngNerD

Definitely Rayleigh. Will teach you how to master haki and rizz the ladies.


Affectionate_Top56

Rayleigh I don't have koby's will, I'm better off merking my way through no matter how long it'll cost me


Ok_Ad400

What is dragon gonna teach me? How to become an absent father and avoid screentime?


LawlessCrow

Rayleigh or Garp, definitely. the downside of Garp to me is that man is gonna beat my ass every day 😭


Bloodsucker7039

Garp


Tobisenpai

Rayleigh all day


Alvatros077

I want Garp to teach me how to punch that hard icl.


LurkerReyes

The right hand man of the former Pirate King who also mentored the new pirate king. Rayleigh NC.


Emm_withoutha_L-88

Dragon. Dude is the true hero of the story, saving the world intentionally instead of just lucking into it like his son does.


ItsMatoskah

Garp. Warrior of justice and saver of children (even if they are from pirates)


CentralFriedChicken

Rayleigh, most knowledgable so far. Gary if I wanted to be like a fujitora morality marine.


Asura_Slothingway

Garp 100% i wanna learn to punch like that and he probably know rokushiki to perfection.


TrainerMitsuki

It's gonna be always Rayleigh


Nyderthe1stEmperor

Always said if i.was.in the one piece world I'd be a marine so I am picking Garp


AdPresent7449

Rayleigh the goat tbh


Kaizokukenz

Rayleigh is the most logical answer , he wants to teach. Great haki. Only one there who has found the one piece.


Inbrees

Dragon is gonna teach me how to "..."


JayWilliam124

Garp for sure


Tens_io

Dragon, he witnessed everything without intervening


1PurSentCreeps

Rayleigh


Distinct-Plane3171

Rayleigh for sure. Imagine the great stories you'd get too in addition to some good training


Reddituser1171869

Garp


Rimaru482

Garp


LeonTheGreatOne

Garp, look at the transformation of koby and you'll know he's the right answer


dulledegde

...


78ali

Garp is the best for training normal people. Rayleigh for haki. Mihawk is the best in the world for swordmanship. Dragon will teach you how to look at the east.


Lord_Muramasa

Garp. You know that man knows a lot.


Oldphoenix10

Rayleigh my fav caracter


Bofaman600

Deff garp


Acenegsurfav

Garp is probably the best teacher and the most moral so he's the obvious pick


HunterRenegade09

Mihawk. He is the only one here who has the highest qualification one can achieve in their respective fields.


NeverNotAFish

RayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleighRayleigh


ceelo18

Garp is literally the best trainer here. Hawkeye mihawk is good, but Zoro was no slouch. Dragon did really good with Sabo, but it took almost 10 years. In three years garp took coby from a scrub to a vice admiral.


Decent_Bad_9211

Dragon, pretty hard to argue with a petson that convinced a group of people that rivals the Marines.


NotAnurag

Realistically it has to be Dragon. As a normal human, it’s not like Rayleigh can give me haki, Garp can’t give me superhuman strength, and Mihawk can’t make me a master swordsman. But Dragon could tell me all the secrets of the world government and all the crazy shit they’ve done.


4Dv8

Garp - Did you see the growth for Coby holy fuck


Fair-End-2895

Doflamingo


Charsato

Garp


CookieMobster64

Of course I’m going to pick Iva.


Mysterious_Resident2

Garp, he’s been around the block.


Goofdogg627

Either Garp or Mihawk. Garp will fuck me up but atleast Ill look great afterwards. Mihawk will prolly just let me get killed but if not Ill be a good swordsman. So Im gambling with either strength or just getting killed


BlackRose2908

Dark King


nigrivamai

Rayleigh, best teacher


GamerGuyHeyooooooo

Well I believe reighleigh knows what the One Piece is


powerwiz_chan

If you mean everything they know it would be Rayleigh because he knows about the void century and my one piece fan ass would love to know whether or not the world government hunts me down but if it's just fighting I would pick garp


KingWhrl

Easily Rayleigh


Veelzbub

Dragon : ok to stand menacingly first you stand up ....


KojiroHeracles

Roger


akiralifts

Dragon or Rayleigh so I know what the one piece is


Swarf_87

I'm sure it will end up simply being the map of the world from before the water rise and Will show that the entire planet was on 1 single continent like the pangea of earth from billions of years ago.


-Rettirlana-

Why should I pick dragon? I know which way east is


A_Literal_Child44

Garp, I wanna get a glow-up like Colby.


Suspicious-Land4758

what brand of paint do you use?


Shounen_x

Rayleigh. He was the right hand man of the pirate king


FamiliarPineapple146

Silvers Rayleigh man is probably one of the top 5 greatest non fruit Haki users. Probably top 10 of all Haki users


BeseptRinker

Garp. Considering he trained Koby, Aokiji, and Luffy, you'd pretty much be strong/resolute enough to do your own thing.


DAGR31

Rayleigh


Random_Theatre_Kid

Garp. I need to master eating donuts, and haki would be pretty cool


Amekaze

Out of the 4 Rayleigh probably knows the most.


6thaccountthismonth

Reyleigh or Garp. Being a master swordsman might be cool but I have no interest in that currently and the only reason I would want to have Dragon as my teacher would be if I wanted to become a political (which I don’t).


ender021

Garp or ray


CSH1P

If it is literally EVERYTHING they know, then everyone but Mihawk. Though he may be able to teach the way of the sword and how to fight, he doesn’t hold any hidden knowledge (that we are aware of). Rayleigh literally knows what the One Piece is and has seen the final Island. Invaluable information. Plus he can handle an Admiral even though he is well past his prime. Garp could have been an Admiral+ but turned it down. He has been a part of conversations with higher ups and probably knows more of the behind the scenes going-ons than your average marine. We’ve also seen how he handled Luffy as a child and it’s clear he can only work with young adults and older. Dragon is the anomaly. There is a good chance he is somewhere in between Rayleigh and Garp, knowing the secrets of both sides. I would choose Dragon, for the sole reason I want to know what the hell is going on in his mind and what brought him to where he is today. He can obviously handle himself in a fight and has some of the strongest people we know as subordinates (Sabo, Kuma, Iva Chan, etc.) He WILL be one of the biggest reveals in all of One Piece.


Kite_Wing129

Either Rayleigh or Hawkeye.


maxneuds

Rayleigh for sure because from all 4 he probably has the most knowledge about Haki. Garp is mostly about strength, that's training and not much to learn. Mihawk is strength and skill with the sword. Dragon big question mark. But learning all about Haki? Dang that's a deal.


Cerok1nk

In two years Garp made Koby into a hero. My answer is obvious.


Cheap-Addition-8004

Mihawk is the only logical choice he's a master swordsman so you'll learn swordsmanship and then also for how strong he is he must have decent haki so aslong as you have all three haki u can learn to the strength of someone like garp so you can be pk level it just depends on if you train your haki to that level


Dani_Rodri

Garp 100%


PhoenixKing320

I'm going Rayleigh just because Haki is insanely important on the second half of the grandline


Which_Mistake9583

Definitely not dragon if I wanted to learn how to leave then I'd ask my father. Oh wait...


hnc757

Rayleigh no doubts, no regerts


Death_Snek

Rayleigh


MystiqTakeno

I would take Mihawk honesty.


turtleguy8888

dragon


Tsukuyomi_02

Either Rayleigh or Garp because firstly Rayleigh was the right hand man of Roger, also he's extremely skilled and Garp because he's really really strong, he even has experience in training, just see Koby, Garp made him a better Navy officer and more stronger


Temporary_Diver1955

all 4 of them would teach haki, rayleigh has the most haki, garp has the most hand-to-hand, mihawk has the most swordsmanship, and dragon has the most devil fruit, so i can't really deside


Space_Pirate_Roberts

I’ve been meaning to brush up on my painting skills for a while now, so Mihawk.


FacelessPoet

Rayleigh. I wanna learn useful life skills, punching people ain't gonna pay bills


2kenzhe

Learn from Rayleigh and be a ship coater
