One Piece Thread: Gear 2nd!

New chapter

Some new information about the Marines.

Spoiler

I think some of us knew that Akainu would become the new Admiral, but I didn’t think he would have to fight Aokiji for the position. Makes me wonder if Aokiji is going to form his own group, or will he join Dragon?

Oh shit oh shit oh shit Jewlery Bonney shall become nakama.

Marines

[details=Spoiler]Interested to see what they mean by giving them new power to fill the gap left by Aokiji. Buster calls for everybody!!! :woot:

Aokiji leaving means he should be called Kuzan from now on I guess. Wonder what he’s up to. I could see him joining up with Dragon like King said. Maybe he’ll be the next Straw Hat member haha. THAT would be sick.[/details]

Big Mom

Spoiler

This is the most detail we’ve got about her really. Minister seemed to be terrified of her and it sounded like she was extorting the island for candy? The same candy Luffy was eating? From the wording it sounded like Mom’s crew told them to give the candy to Luffy, so I’m confused…

Bonney

Spoiler

I don’t think Jewelry Bonney is going to have anything to do with what just went down seeing how the age thing only really affected Hody’s team. Who gives a shit if they kick the bucket.

Edit:

Blackbeard

Spoiler

They also mentioned him being on a hunt for Fruit users. So apparently he can have even more than two abilities? Wtf hax…

I think they are talking about the energy pills. Its some old school parenting shit where your parents would make you smoke a whole carton of cigarettes if they caught you smoking .Like it’s really sadistic and messed up.

The energy pills were stolen from the chest though, not made in the candy factory… Right? Wtf I’m confused now.

They also made some in the factory.

Was it actually stated in the manga that the steroids were made in the candy factory? I always thought this was just a speculation we came up with here.

New chapter revelations

[details=Spoiler] Surprised that they came to blows but given his stand out performance in the war Akainu was the obvious choice but ti lose Garp, Aokiji and Sengoku, makes you wonder what sort of additional powers the Marines have been given to make up for that.

Blackbeard on devil fruit hunt, I can’t believe that he would be taking them all into himself, I have to wonder if he is able to give powers to his crew?

Meanwhile, Fishman island Part 2 begins!! [/details]

So Blackbeard…

Spoiler

Just a crazy thought. What if he had a Devil Fruit before he got the Gura Gura fruit? Like his original DF is a wild card fruit that lets him carry more than one DF.

These kinds of chapters are my favorite kinds of chapters in OP.

So much new info!

Multiple fruits

Spoiler

From the way they worded it it sounds like Blackbeard isn’t the only one on his crew that can have multiple abilities. It says “They’ve” acquired an ability so I’m not sure it only applies to Blackbeard

multiple fruits

Spoiler

Yes, I was previously under the impression that the multiple fruit thing was exclusive to Blackbeard, but the latest chapter does make it seem like they’re able to give multiple fruits to each of the crew members. Of course, the ability to obtain multiple fruits may still have to do with Blackbeard and his powers. I guess we’ll find out later on down the line.

Luffy was like this and then he was like this

when he heard his name.

I think

Spoiler

it’s just the way it was translated, I don’t have any reason to believe Blackbeard can give his crew multiple abilities, but it might be possible that he can give away abilities by storehousing them within his own body. It would make sense considering the scope and origin of his ability.

As for the other details…

Consequences

[details=Spoiler] It seems Big “Diabetic” Mom is a Yonkou with a sweet tooth and will destroy islands for candy.The Akainu vs Aokiji conflict sounds epic as hell, I can only imagine what went down. Fleet Admiral Akainu sounds fucking terrifying, I don’t know if the New World has any room for jobbers when a murderous beast like him is roaming the seas. Same goes for Blackbeard.

Lastly, that open spot sounds fitting for my man Coby, I just wonder how much he’s improved since we last saw him…[/details]

fruits and marines

Spoiler

I have a feeling that Blackbeard could actually be storing the DF powers into some kind of container and when time calls for it, he’ll bust it out and give his crew powers. And I cant wait to see Aokiji tell his side of the story because Akainu being head of the marines is gonna cause ALOT of tension. What i’m most surprised about is they didnt want to vote in Kizaru for the position.

kizaru couldn’t be fleet admiral because his views are un determined he is real wishy washy . He could have wiped out the supernovas in one swoop but toyed with them and allowed them to escape multiple times.He either likes the challenge of fighting Luffy and his crew are just generally doesn’t take his job extremely seriously . I got a feeling smoker is an admiral or a bounty hunter.

don’t like blackbeard getting his megaman on. it’s almost aizen level overkill. good chapter though.

page 11 panel 3 looks sooooo wrong lolololol.

years of hentai has ruined me.

I actually forgot about him. He’s probably still with the Marines. He doesn’t strike me as someone who cared who the new leader was, let alone himself.

[details=Spoiler]Well compared to Aokiji or Kizaru, Akainu always seemed to care more/take things more seriously than the other 2, so to me this revelation wasnt really a surprise.

I’m curious to see what determined the win between those 2 Logias, it was almost certainly not a Pokemon style win since they apparently went even for days.[/details]
