Communication System and aftermath from it in One Piece
Ok I decided I will make it for One Piece Fanfic writers who, as me myself, had to be perfectly accurate to the realities of the world in one piece.
People rely on spoken and written way of communication, as so it comes to calls and letters, but, despite of how easy you might think it is, in one piece it's quite hard. Especially for pirates.
There are two common mistakes while writing something what requires communication on what myself got caught when I later checked if it's even able to do: Letters and range of Den Den Mushi calls and broadcasts.

If you want to know anything about your friend or family member who is a pirate there are only prays that they have a wanted post or were noticed by a journalists and it is not due to a death of theirs. Otherwise? There is nothing else what they would send else.
They don't have a post system through which people can send letters.
Tumblr media
Letters
Tumblr media
Due to that if you have a letter to send outside the island or archipelag you have two options:
Marines If you're a marine or civilian you can without any worry in your heart send letters through giving it to marine to bring it to the recipient if their ship is heading there/it is an important document or letter. It is mainly an inside Marine thing to send important correspondence, civilians here mostly must be a member of family/a friend of a marine member to get a privilege to do so. Or just have a cool marines on your island to do so.
Messenger Personally or not. If you want to get your message safely to the recipient you need someone to bring it there, but it's always risky if place is under protection of marines. Best way is to give it to someone who is a navigator in a move if the person you send a letter is not on their next stop.
Tumblr media
By far we got only Ace cover story and Rockstar delivering Shanks' letter to Whiteboard as examples of any letter deliveries outside marine, where those are hard to register/I remember those but forgot when it happened.
Tumblr media
Den Den Mushi
Tumblr media
For this I send you to the wiki site of them where each brand is described, but here I will short tell/explain each with where and when it can be used and be handy:
Black Den Den They are used mainly by Marines and Revolutionary Army to spy on normal calls when it is not attached to the White Den Den. Marines controls by that calls of pirates as well, knowing where to expect what pirates and so. More dangerous pirate or persona, more dangerous it can be spied from the nearest marine's base.
Tumblr media
White Den Den It is an attachable snail what hides the call signal so Black Den Den can't hear it. Cool, but those are really hard to find. Only known owner of one is Dragon so good luck.
Baby Den Den Those are those small what fit in a standard human hand easily. They have a basic island range, and so their call is as well harder to catch on since the signal is really short. They are mostly used as microphones or walkie talkies. Very useful but still, better be careful if there is still a marine base on the island etc.
Normal Den Den Depending on the size and dial in it range might be different, but it is circa in an ocean range, better dig into it and range might be longer. On the East Blue, mainly bigger islands or rich towns, if there was no Marine base, had anyone with it, rather richer people or people with their own locals.
Tumblr media
Conclusions
Tumblr media
If the pirates are talking about curtain meet up or thing, marines start to get ready to do a move so it's always good to have on mind to give more realism to the world to have that on mind.
More secret or spy-like nature of the crew/organization, if they are not under protection of WG or Marines rather should be prepared for any outside calls.
Civilians and Pirates are rather forgotten to freely talk if the island is not under protection of that pirate crew. If neighbors or just people from the island will notice contact between two, or marines who have base near will notice that the crew is visiting curtain island way too many times, pirates might get caught at some point. Disclaimer here: Shanks was using that Garp is on the duety and no Marine appears on his home village through that time. Keeping an eye on details like those are quite important if you want to menage safety for your crew.
Calls between Marines, especially from higher-ups, are protected by the protocols and codes.
When Marine ship gets near the base, the base calls the ship from automate, catching the contact with it without even need to roll the number, to get the number of the ship, fleet, and entry code to get to the dock. Similar is when the gates of justice are needed to be opened to leave, protection there is on a higher level because of the places it protects.
To send someone to give specific person a letter you must send them with at least two things: - vivre card of recipients - vivre card of sender or - eternal pose to the island of recipients where they live/wait - eternal pose to the island of sender where they live/wait Despite if the messenger is a navigator or not, if the lands are not known by them, coming back or even finding their way back to their group will be much harder without it.
Fun idea is that you can create a crew specialized in being messengers! Be the one who do the god's work.
Everything said about letters is the same with packages! Have your own postman!
Revolutionary Army, due to Karasu's abilities, they can send between each other and their allies messenger crows.
Same goes to Nefertari family and Alabastra royalty and nobility have their messenger ducks.
Fishmen and mermen can communicate with fish, and as so they might use them sa messenger fish.
My idea what I use with snipers or characters like Katakuri or Garp: If you can shot or throw really strongly and precisely, you can literally send by that way a message! Put it into the cannonball and woosh! In a bullet? Easy! Metal envelope? Even smarter and better! I personally use for snipers with strong grip metal envelopes or pop up messages in long bullets what pop up by the impact. For Usopp messages hald in a big bullet to bloom together with the bullet by the impact! Ofc u can use all those ideas freely!
Btw the extra graphic here are from the blog linked in the first one!
Let me know if you would want me to make more posts like this one, I like to make big researches on the fields like those etc

Crocodile finds a strange stray cat an 11-year old Nico Robin (AU where they met 13 years earlier. Robin's been on the run from the World Government for 3 years. Crocodile's 27 and has not set up base in Alabasta yet)
It seems like I have become possessed. By some sort of demon.

how does shanks manage to have some kind of sexual tension with every warlord in the sea whilst also having practically zero screen time. ramona-esque dilf of the east blue. luffy wants to be king of the pirates but is stuck sailing through the several deadly seas of his dad's evil exes. they see the straw hat and it activates their fight reflex. half-convinced that shanks gave it away with full knowledge of this

Tbh Ace dying at Marineford is peak older sibling behaviour not (just) in a heroic emotional way but also in a petty way. Like if MY silly little brother publicly rescued me from a govt execution I would also immediately have to one up him by sacrificing my life for his as an assertion of Sibling Dominance
