X Drake went silent after the Wano Country arc, but for some reason, he ended up hospitalized with Koby and the others. What is his current status…? Let me write about that!
What Happened After the Wano Country Arc?
Drake appeared in the Wano Country arc as one of Kaido’s subordinates, the Tobi Roppo. However, he was there for a certain purpose, claiming to have infiltrated as a subordinate to defeat Kaido. After being exposed for freeing the captured Law and nearly executed, he switched sides to ally with Luffy. But what exactly was his goal remains unclear… It was revealed that he was the captain of SWORD, and CP-0’s Guernica mentioned knowing his identity, also stating that it was inconvenient for them to be seen in Wano Country, leading to an attempt to kill Drake. Although Drake wasn’t as strong as Guernica, he survived due to the toughness of his Zoan Ancient Type abilities and retaliated against Guernica. After his final conversation with Hawkins, who was defeated by Killer, he went missing…
Later, in the Future Island arc, Vice Admiral Garp from SWORD mentioned that Drake had gone silent, and it was revealed that he was involved in the construction of the research facility on Egghead during his time in the Navy. Recently, after the Hachinosu incident, he was shown hospitalized alongside Koby and the others…
Drake should have been seriously injured in the battle on Onigashima, but there was no depiction of him receiving medical treatment, and he vanished before anyone knew it… He might have healed faster than Luffy and the others due to the toughness and excellent recovery abilities of the Ancient Type, allowing him to escape from Wano Country, but how he escaped is intriguing.
Personally, I think it’s possible that Drake was captured by Green Bull Aramaki during his invasion. If that’s the case, he might currently be in the Navy hospital to heal the wounds inflicted by Aramaki. If so, Drake might have been sent to prison as a pirate, but he is currently in a Navy hospital… The reason Drake can be admitted to a Navy hospital is probably that he still holds a position in the Navy as SWORD.
Although SWORD is considered to have returned their Marine Codes, they still retain their ranks and are incorporated into the organization. There might be some special rule or circumstance where Drake is treated as a marine despite his position in SWORD, or perhaps the Navy intends to extract information from Drake or use him for something, having no intention of executing or imprisoning him… Furthermore, the intriguing reaction of Koby and the others to Vegapunk’s message might be related to the purpose of SWORD’s existence and why Drake is hospitalized in a Navy hospital…
