One Piece Thread: Gear 2nd!

New Chapter

[details=Spoiler]Nice confirmation on Zoro and Sanji using Haki. I suspected, but Luffy outright saying it was nice to see.

I lol’d at them strapping Chopper to Law’s hat. Law’s facial expression hahaha. “Why did I team up with these fucktards…”[/details]

A slime approaches. Command?

Fell out the chair when I saw that man’s face on the last panel of page 10 in the new chapter.

OP 668

[details=Spoiler] I have to wonder what Law’s relationship with the Samurai is now, given the expression he had when they mentioned him. Nami being stuck in Sanji’s body, wonder if we will get a rundown on what happened with the Yeti Cool Bros and that group.

Oda playing who the Emperor is close to his vest. Because of that alone the possibility of it being Shanks just shot up like 30% at minimum. [/details]

I think the fact that they didn’t answer the question when he asked it bumps Shanks up to like 90%

CC’s totally Kefkah shoved into the OP universe and given a gas-fruit.

Law…

Spoiler

… makes a great foil for the Strawhats’ antics. The panel where Chopper’s tied to his hat is gold. And of COURSE they’d keep it hidden from us who they’re going after. Grump.

Haki:

[details=Spoiler]I recall saying that Haki would be devalued if more people than Luffy knew it. I was a little wrong. Not entirely, but a little. See, the one Amazing Holycrap How Does He Know That ability that Luffy still has over most people is the Conqueror’s Haki… The other Haki types, come to think of it, were encountered quite a few times before the Red Line, and sometimes even in fairly low-level types.

Basic Haki skills is pretty much a necessity for high-level New World fighting, so it makes sense that the Monster Trio all know it. How they’ll use it is what’s going to be interesting.[/details]

Slime:

[details=Spoiler]Bwahahahaha. Yep, this is the New World all right.

… Oh hey, I guess that’s where the Impel Down sewer drain winds up.

Now where’s Mr. 3 when you need him…?[/details]

This is just me but I think Luffy agreed to the alliance by taking down Big Ma out of the emperors. I mean, Luffy looked happy and such when he “heard” who they were going to aim for. He already wants to have a throw down with Big Ma since the Hody Jones arc. Just the emperor I think they’re going to take down.

“Huh? You’re gonna betray me?”
“No”

lol, good shit

I think Law is in for many “…” moments during this alliance

It’s a longshot but anything’s possible at this point. It’s more like Kaidou in my mind, since Big Mom seems obvious, but we have to remember that Kidd is already on her ass. Shanks would make sense in some ways because Luffy recognizes that they are both pirates and this is a part of a pirate’s life… but I kind of doubt it because Luffy is a pretty sentimental bloke.

Law’s “…” says it all. He’s probably wondering how these cats made it this far with their whimsy.

IMHO Zoro was probably the first Haki user based on what I’ve seen throughout the series, Luffy has displayed C.O.O.~esque abilities early on, but Zoro’s techniques have manifested themselves into really interesting forms.

Keychain Chopper is hilarious!

Turns out the One Piece park in China isn’t official and is a complete ripoff of the original manga. So China can even bootleg entire theme parks now? Woah!:bluu:

I’m thinking Big Mom, Kaidou and maybe Blackbeard. It may be too early for the last one.

Does anyone understand why they want to kidnap Ceasar Clown, and what that has to do with the Four Emperor they plan on taking out? Do they want to give him to the Marines? Well, I don’t think Trafalgar Law is going to be a bad guy, that would be too sad. And he could’ve killed Luffy when he had the chance, so I don’t think he’s that type.

It’s been a while since a chapter of One Piece made me laugh as hard as I did at this one, this was very much welcome.

The greatest alliance in the New World

Spoiler

Apparently, Law had NO idea what he was jumping into when I allied with the Straw Hat Pirates. He’s starting to realize this and he’s paying for it. The Chopper-Hat was just PRICELESS, no questions!

government shenanigans

Spoiler

Well, we know who the centaurs really are, they’re the Impel Down inmates whose escapes were covered up by the World Government! This is just more proof that Smoker and Tashigi are playing for the wrong team–or rather, they’re team needs to be put under new management, courtesy of Dragon’s Revolution and/or the discovery of One Piece and its reveal to the public (supposedly, it’s something that’ll really fuck over the corrupt government big wigs and start a world war)!

that’s not a very funny clown

Spoiler

Also, Caesar Clown is continuing to prove that he’s a huge threat, not just with his unethical experiments, but he’s confirmed to be DEADLY against non-Haki users, thanks to his DF ability. He’s even got the goddamn Smooze as a pet!

I noticed Tashigi/Smoker Vader choking that one centaur dude. Does that mean smoker’s strength was transferred to her body or is she physically stronger than she looks?

Son I bust out laughing when I saw that Luffy tied chopper to Laws head.He had that if y’all don’t get this nigga off my head expression on his face.I wonder what happened to the rest of the level 6 inmates I bet some returned to their old crews or joined new crews.

It could be haki related.

  • :bluu:

I’m thinking CC might be linked to one of the Emperor’s either by a dark secret that when exposed would force the WG to act against the Emperor or CC just provides them most of their weapons which they use for their forces.

CC makes candy…

I’m just sayin’…

  • :bluu:

CC making weapons for one of the emperors would make sense, but CC wanted in good with the WG and showup Vega Punk. I don’t think he’d be working with any of the emperors. Maybe it has to do with making Trafalgar Law look good, if Trafalgar managed to capture CC and give him to the WG, it would prove his loyalty, and Law would use his new found influence to get resources to take on one of the Four Emperors. Maybe, CC even got on one of the emperors bad side, and they could trade him in for favors from one of the Four Emperors to use against another.

I hope Big Mom isn’t a bad guy, I kinda like her. Like Fat Princess mixed with Gluttony from FMA. I still think Charlotte Lilin may be the mother of that girl the SH’s befriended in Thriller Bark. Remember, the woman who gave Luffy her mothers Vivre Card saying her mother was a great pirate in the New World? I’m thinking, the one who’s going down is Kaidou.

I want to see Sabo soon. Aww man, I got reminded about Ace, now I’m depressed again. ;_;

I’m betting on the idea of Big Mom being Lola’s mother as well, I don’t know why so many One Piece fans dismissed that theory just because she’s one of the Four Emperors.

(Of course I return to the reveal one of things I hate the most: gigantic, amorphous blobs. Aokiji! Where’s my freezing spell?!)

Ugh, as hilarious as Law’s expressions are, I am so lost right now. The last chapter I read was when they had just found the giant kids, partly because of school and partly because it wasn’t on mangastream after that until this week?

Regardless, anyone know how many chapters I missed if this is Chapter 668?

Probably 10 chapters at least. it’s been quite a while since you posted here.

Charlotte Linlin is most likely ambiguously evil because of her ravenous appetite, most likely a side effect of her ability.
