One Piece -- Discussion

New Chapter

Lot going on. This chapter's kind of busy.

Sanji escapes the room because Vergo fled. So inconclusive match. Fine by me.

Law has the Sad. There's a meme in that somewhere.

Kinemon and the Straw Hats team up to take down a dragon. Kinemon takes it particularly personally.

Chopper's in monster form and fighting off a bunch of crazy kids.

We get to see some of Doflamingo hanging out with some ladies, including a little girl who I hope isn't there for the same reason as the others probably are. Also the little girl has a random quirk which probably means she'll be a character later. He's also got some random old people hanging around him. Oh, and he gets attacked by a heavily armed maid at point-blank range but ignores her.

Oh, and samurai's son apparently got turned into a dragon. Not sure if it's the one they just beat up or not.

[Frozen_Feet]

He also apparently makes said heavily-armed maid shoot herself in the head. O______________________O

And apparently Don Flamingo is something similar to a lich, I mean he talks about Luffy being a better vessel than Law...

Did he? I saw the gun to her head, but I didn't see a sound effect or see her pull the trigger.

I figured he just paralyzed her with a gun to her head so he can play with her later. After all, even with all that gear she still doesn't even register as a threat to him or anyone else there.

I wouldn't be surprised if he keeps her around for entertainment and she routinely attempts to escape/kill him.

Actuallly she's apparently going to Punk Hazard, if I followed it right and she's "Baby 5" they mentioned in dialogue

Perhaps it was a typo and they meant vassal? But maybe. Hmmm.

Page 12 makes this rather evident.

[ThiagoMartell]

I really wonder what is going to happen to Law.

[Kato]

I liked how they took down the dragon, though I kind of expected Zoro to do something there... meh. Not too bad.

Sanji was kind of fun when he kept telling the G5 he only liked female fans.

The whole thing with Flamingo... way too confusing and... just weird. I guess we'll see all of them again much later...
No idea where the vessel/vassal thing comes from. All I remember is him saying Luffy is stronger than Law (probably)

I really wonder what SAD is though, and what Law wants with it... I'm not so sure anymore how much of a nice guy he is after the grin today.

Apparently it was a bad translation, what he was saying was that Luffy had greater potential than Law.

I see thanks.

Yo, new chapter.

Lot's of things happening, like the harpies embrace of icy death (as if falling had ever hurt Luffy) and the kids and finally Law vs Vergo but... nothing that's really necessary to discuss, in my opinion.

But I'm looking forward to Vergo vs Smoker hopefully soon.

[AtlanteanTroll]

Apparently there's a theory that Law is a D. going around. I don't even ...

[lord_khaine]

I find the Law Theoory higly unlikely, but i am hyped about the upcomming Smoker/Vergo showdown, and the chance to see how the CP fighting style would stand against a Logia user.

Smoker vs. Vergo is off to a pretty good start. Not sure what that explosive blowgun thing was, but Smoker using his Logia powers for evading and blindsiding Vergo was pretty cool. Still, not nearly conclusive enough as to how the fight will go, they seem relatively evenly matched.

Awwwwww, what a cute dragon Momonosuke is. I take it we're seeing a Mythical Zoan at work here.

I was under the impression that the dragon they killed was Momonosuke, but I really really really hope this cute thing is him instead.

Because the is D. Law?

*dodges incoming fruit*

[ThiagoMartell]

With Momonosuke actually showing up, my hopes to have the samurai join the crew are now 100% dead.

There's still hope for Momonosuke though!

Upgrading Chopper from team pet? I don't know...

[LaZodiac]

I honestly don't think anyone will join the Strawhats as a permanent member anymore. The best chance of this we've got is Jubei.

Now, I'm not saying Kinemon won't hang out with the Strawhats for awhile, it's clear that Zoro wants to fight/learn from him, since Kinemon can cut FIRE. But I doubt it'll be permanent.

[DiscipleofBob]

I still think we'll eventually get one or two new crew members, tops, but it's not going to be anyone we've met yet, and it's still way too early to be making those kinds of calls.

[Dusk Eclipse]

Upgrading Chopper from team pet? I don't know...

I've never liked how Chopper is treated by all non-strawhats as a team pet... hope when they update their bounties Chopper finally get one (with his monster from he should at least break the 10,000 belly mark IMO.

I am pretty sure his ability to cut fire comes from his own magic (which I guess is a Devil Fruit); besides I don't really like him as a Strawhat, besides rescuing his son he doesn't have any kind of dream (that we know of) and that seems to be the unofficially official requirement to join the crew.

[LaZodiac]

He's established that his magic is a Devil Fruit, I believe. But I think his fire cutting skill is all natural, since he's clearly a Samurai of Wushu, and thus a ferociously powerful swordsmen. Zoro wouldn't be interested if he thought it was just a gained power.

[Dusk Eclipse]

Did he really? hmmm I can't remember that. Oh well perhaps they will hitch a ride (does that apply to ships too?) back to their home island in any case.

I think it was when his legs were in the lake and he became paralyzed because of it.

Yes, that was that.
His devil fruit is very very weird, isn't it? I wonder if it's limited to clothes.

[Soras Teva Gee]

I keep wondering on if Kinemon is holding out on us and is a mythic zoan since there's a bit of precedent for that. Then again what's his name the magic guy from the supernova's seems to be a paramecia so who knows.

Hm, a mythic zoan kyuubi? That would be cool. But I don't think that's the case, unfortunatelly. It's cool because of the contrast between the trickster fox and the honorbound samurai.

[ben-zayb]

Basil Hawkins? The strawman (for lack of a better description)

The dragon luffy met isn't a "medieval" dragon, but rather an oriental "chinese-style" dragon. Maybe this one is Momonosuke, considering the Japanese-motif of the Wano country.

He is. And it's a DF. Maybe a mythical Zoan as suggested?

Probably.
And it seems we are FINALLY getting to the big fights. Woohoo!
