the reality : zero
the progress of the story : Zero
the development of the character : BIG Zeeeeeeeeeeero

it was nice story at the beginning but not more
in the world of pirates , a world with many fights and killing ,the strong kill the weak and during 1000 chapters there are only 2 death for side character really realistic man , actually the pirates who supposed to steal kill and spread the fear are really so cute

the time during 1000 chapters "no time " - "2.5 years of training in 2 or 3 chapters" - "no time again"
the character still the same with same personalty, style and ideas through that 1000 chapters

the author tried to make unique world but ha failed and results to a world with many non logic things
but why he should end the series ?? he gains a lot of money with few events
the popularity of it based on the people who want to know the end but i can tell u the end :
there are no end it will continue and continue until no one watch it
