Where does the charge thing come from? Couldn't they just be condensed (free of charge) quake bubbles? I know that's what I considered them to be so far.
The charge thing was something someone brought up as evidence :wassat: that it wasn't Haki.
Would you say WB imbued his weapon with condensed devils fruit quake bubbles? ( really doesn't matter what you choose to call it )
http://mangastream.com/read/one_piece/566-5/14
I'm pretty sure it would be impossible to imbue a weapon with a quake without shattering it. But we know for a fact you can imbue items with Haki.

Yeah, but in the next chapter Aokiji freezes him while doing the same attack, and the vibrations break the ice.
It's unprecedented, and doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but I'm 95% sure he's charging a quake through the spear.
You know, with Whitebeard's death, once this shit clears up, and we get reactions all over the world over his death, I'm willing to be we'll finally see the other Yonkous soon.
Shall we place bets on who the fourth is?
Bag o' Skittles on Lola's mama.
I'll place a strawhat on Akainu Joining.

I still say Lola's mom is this Whitebeard ally:

Oh yeah, make it Tropical-flavored, and we have a bet.
There's no way that's Lola's mom.
She's too pretty.

The picture doesn't show it, but she has a tiny Bowler hat just like Lola.
Their reunion may be rushed
I don't know man, some very interesting concepts such as Dr. Vegapunk's lab and the revolutionaries were introduced during the "whereabouts of the crew" chapters. You could be right, but if it is rushed, I could see the "whereabouts" being more of a flashback.
Don't expect SH's to see the new world until next year. With WB dead, Fishman island is gonna be in complete disarray (he was protecting them), and these events are gonna send all sorts of people to the new world. So we may have a long story arc coming after they get through getting everyone together.
This post brings up a very interesting questions. Does the events of this Arc cause more people to seek One Piece or shy away from it? On one hand, Whitebeard re-confirmed that it exists but on the other hand, people saw the most powerful man in the world get killed.
all the pirates, slave traders and bounty hunter who watch the death of WB on SA, would realised that Fisherman Island is up for grabs now. A lot of islands will be in chaos over the fall of this great man!
It's kinda sad Whitebeard never bothered to learn Rokushiki. Considering how closely these skills are tied to the physical power of the user Whitebeard would have been an even bigger monster if that is possible . Although come to think of it he would have been pretty much invincible then so it wouldn't have made for a good storyline

I wonder if Shanks won't go pacify the island as a way to honor Whitebeard

i think luffy going to be the one to put a complete end to all of fishman island's problems
i think luffy going to be the one to put a complete end to all of fishman island's problems
ya no doubt with it jimbie will join got to have a story and flashback, you know the whole deal
I wonder why kuma sent them to different places before he was robotized completely. Maybe so they can reunite
Maybe i'm just being a bit conceited, but the way forward through fishman island seems pretty clear in my eyes:
Fishman Island Arc
Conflict: "unknown"
Solution: "find someone to replace whitebeard's power vacuum"
Who: "um, duh. Jimbei"
Summary: Luffy & Team have to topple the usurper who tries to take control of fishman island, and replace him/her with Jimbie.
New Nakama
It can't be Jimbei.
Why: "his power/bounty is WAYYYYYYYYY too high"
And: "he's going to have to passify fishman island"
Oda has NEVER introduced a new nakama clearly more powerful or dangerous than ZORO. LUFFY's goal in life is to defeat the Yonkou/Admirals. ZORO's goal in life is to defeat a Shikibukai. NEITHER character is ANYWHERE close to this "destined" power / danger level. if Jinbei (or Hancock for that matter) is added to the crew as anything but a vivi-eque temp nakama, it will through the power balance WAYYYYYYY off. we need to be looking in the Sanji/Chopper/Franky area (maybe a whitebeard commander other than marco, maybe a revolutionary other than ivankov, anyone in the sub 200-mil range)
Reuniting the Crew
1. keep in mind, that the "crew" wasn't the only one fighting on sabaody. there was T-H-E D-A-R-K K-I-N-G S-I-L-V-E-R-S R-A-Y-L-E-I-G-H !!!
2. and he has presumably coated the thousand sunny in the required three days …. A FULL DAY BEFORE AMAZON LILY EVEN STARTED :D
3. and all of the strawhats have a vivre card that will lead them .... not just to rayliegh .... but to the thousand sunny itself (presuming rayleigh/hachi/caime/rosie riders are doing their jobs).
4. and presumably, these cats R-E-A-D T-H-E D-A-M-N N-E-W-S-P-A-P-E-R
5. where do you think the thousand sunny is right now???? i'll give you a clue!!!!!! the blackbeard pirates opened up the gates of justice!!!!!! rayleigh's on board and hopping mad!!!!! comming as fast as he can (maybe with the crew already on board) ready to grab luffy and S-I-N-K L-I-K-E A R-O-C-K
6. fishman island is 10,000 meters below marineford .... its 10,000 meters below luffy RIGHT NOW why scramble around on the Old World when the entrance to the New One is as CLOSE AS YOU CAN POSSIBLE GET ABOVE WATER ^_^
7. all in all, i bet we're in fishman island in 3 chapters tops: one for remorsing, one for escaping, and one for sinking the coated sunny.
QED (lies)
:cwy:Ace is dead, Oars Jr. is dead, Thatch been dead, Moby Dick is dead, and now WB is dead.
The WG's victory here has caused the balance in the world 2B been broken.
-The position of Yonkou is technically up for grabs
-WB's Islands and land in the New World are now up 4 grabs
-Marco has been sworn 2protect Luffy rather than try and protect his pops possessions
-SH's R still separated
-Shichibukai hav been almost completely disbanded
-Marines must now take care of BB's crew, cuz they said they can't let those criminals return 2this world.
The WG has won. Oars Jr., Ace, WhiteBeard and many more hav died in this war, the WB pirates demolished, meanwhile the WG hasn't suffered 1 serious casualty. Today is a sad day 4 criminals everywhere(Except those recently freed). Today is also a sad day 4 correctional facilities everywhere(Except those not raided by Luffy and BlackBeard). Actually today seems like a good day 4 every1(Except those that died or lost some1 important 2them).

Yonkou isn't just something you can become by being strong.

Totally not agreed
The f…..g winner is BB, whatever was Sengoku's aim killing both WB and Ace maybe to destabilize the region protected by WB, the aim is way far f.....d !
Marines created an extremly more dreadful threat with BB!
They exchanged pestis against HIV!!!
The huge strategist sure feel pain in his ass!
New world will surely undergo a fight for the inheritance of the WB territory between the Yonku and the Marines!
That could be a perfect distraction to exploit for BB! Going straight to the PK title!!!

Disagree completely. Sengoku's idea 2rid himself of Ace & WB was brilliant. BB is far less powerful than WB though he does pose more of a threat since he wants the title of Pirate King. But if any1 BB deserves the PK title. He is the current time Roger. Only nothing seems 2stand in the way of his ambition. The only difference that we can assume between him and Roger is that he betrayed his Nakama-(Not his true Nakama though but they were his Nakama 4 over 20 yrs).

Luffy stands in his way… And I think it was clear as hell... WB even said... You aren't the one BB (panel of Luffy)

MayB so but at his current lvl he's not even Shichibukai lvl. BB will take the title first if Luffy doesn't catch up. But on a more serious note SogeKing will B the next Pirate King.

Agreed on this point, I do not contest on a one vs one fight WB is(was) way stronger than BB but he failed because BB is a honorless but pragmatic bastard.
But do not underestimate BB he injured Shanks, we don't have any clue about that, he surely did it in a treacherous way but he did it.
BB alone is not impressive and that's one of the reason he's so dangerous moreover the guy is not embarassed by "cheating" what makes him the true danger. Having the guts of coming in Marinefort… Sure he will escape with no damage in his crew, so in my orpinion even his crew is better than WBs one.
But he's a bastard
PS: that's funny, Aces fans react exactly the same way you do in french forums
New Nakama
It can't be Jimbei.
Why: "his power/bounty is WAYYYYYYYYY too high"
I'm not going to argue this with you here, but I will if you take it to the crew member speculation thread. Basically, though, Robin is of direct conflict to this statement. If you repost this in the proper thread, I'll give it a proper rebuttal.
2. and he has presumably coated the thousand sunny in the required three days …. A FULL DAY BEFORE AMAZON LILY EVEN STARTED :D
Semantics, but this isn't right. Luffy met Hancock two days after the incident, as stated by Elder Nyon.
5. where do you think the thousand sunny is right now???? i'll give you a clue!!!!!! the blackbeard pirates opened up the gates of justice!!!!!! rayleigh's on board and hopping mad!!!!! comming as fast as he can (maybe with the crew already on board) ready to grab luffy and S-I-N-K L-I-K-E A R-O-C-K
There's no reason why they'd enter the Tarai current and need the gates to be opened.
6. fishman island is 10,000 meters below marineford …. its 10,000 meters below luffy RIGHT NOW why scramble around on the Old World when the entrance to the New One is as CLOSE AS YOU CAN POSSIBLE GET ABOVE WATER ^_^
Because it's not in Oda's style to begin a new adventure before Luffy recovers. Nami has said before that they won't sail forward with the captain out of commission. There are also still a few loose plot threads that Oda needs to tie up before they leave the first half of the Grand Line behind.

You're sure right for the SHs but do you think Oda could make BB benefit from a Luffys recovery period, making BB the new PK and then a fight in the end to gain the title?

BB current time Roger? you must be joking, I believe it was hinted by Roger's ex-crewmates Raylegh, Crocus, Shanks that Luffy resembles Roger's ambition and drive. The only difference of Roger and BB is for betraying a nakama? Lol you must be joking, BB lacks honor just like this chapter he was begging for his goddamn life, although I agree that he has a big ambition and by far BB is like a real pirate in real world, Heck it was even said by WB that BB isn't the one who's gonna be the PK.
@Marquis:

I guess it's possible, but I would be shocked if it happened. That would mean that BB had gone through and fought the Emperors and such all off-panel and away from the story. It seems far less dramatic and interesting than it could be by having them "race" for it.
I don't think Blackbeard will become Pirate King. Whitebard said so: Blackbeard is not the one Roger was waiting for. He probably will be ahead of Luffy until the very end, when they'll fight for the title. Whoever wins becomes PK. The other will be just a pretender.

Nah, PK will be the one who finds One Piece first and not the one who steals it first. If anything it'll go the other way 'round and BB attempts to steal the title from Luffy and eventually he'll fail…
Yeah, I agree with you guys. I just have no definitive proof against his idea.

Yeah sure BB is not the one Roger was waiting for.
But I was wondering if "the one" in this prophecy could designate something bigger than being PK.
No doubt LUFFY is going to be PK, both ways interest me either the run or a chaos world terrorised by BB (yeah I know that's in my dreams!).
Roger only talked about the "One" not about being PK maybe it is just about being PK but seing something more won't surprise me from Oda poneglyphes and D. stuff…

I don't believe BB will become PK either. If he is slated to be the 'end boss' so to speak, then there is a chance he'll reach Raftel first and then they'll duke it out mano-e-mano for the One Piece.
However, Roger was named PK after his execution (anyone with evidence of him being called this prior to turning himself into the Marines is welcome to submit it as I haven't the energy to go digging). He was so-named because he had done what no other had done (in the eyes of the people anyways), conquered the Grand Line.
It has been stated several times that a prerequisite of becoming the PK is to obtain the One Piece, which proves you conquered the Grand Line as Roger did; but, it never states that obtaining the OP automatically makes you the PK. This has been backed up on SA when Luffy states quite matter-of-factly that the PK is the one who has the most FREEDOM on the seas. This could be obtained through respect or fear or whatever, but basically boils down to being able to do what you want cause no one will mess with, after having proved you can conquer the GL.
It's not simply, let me go grab this and 'Shazam!' I am the PK now….
Or that's what I think anyways...
I read your Perona post (one onemanga) as well and it was quite interesting and well thought-out. It's not a fact in any way, shape or form as Oda can do whatever he wants, but it was rather thorough. I can understand not reposting it here as it would probably be a pain. I do have a rebuttal (and I'll try and make it quick)....
Hancock does fit most of the themes you've underlined. She started off as an enemy, had a horrible past, and is forced into her situation (this I will clarify as the others seem self-explanatory).
She became empress of the Kuja tribe to protect herself and her sisters and their horrible past. She must act like a total bitch cause it keeps her villagers at arms length as to protect her secret. I don't believe (given her current warming up since meeting Luffy) that she enjoys kicking kittens and clubbing baby seals (though she does sound like a fun date). It's all a show, a performance to keep her people in fear. She was also forced into becoming a Shichi because it was the only way to guarantee her people's safety. Momonga said as much. AL was protected by the calm belt but since Vegapunk figured that out AL was only currently protected due to Hancock's Shichi status.
Let's also not forget the 'Love Sickness' (it hurts me to even type it though I do find it rather amusing). Nyon stated that she left AL in order to follow her love, and that previous Empresses had died because they remained behind rather than following their hearts or some mess.
So, she definitely fulfills a lot of the same requirements you listed. And, esp after the high possibility she'll get her Shichi status revoked, it's natural to think she would leave AL for Luffy. It will keep the Marines from invading AL to capture her, thus saving her people, and it will cure her 'Love Sickness' by being with Luffy.
As for the attitude, Nami was a a conniving tramp, Franky robbed them and kicked Usopp's ass, and Robin didn't truly warm up until they declared War on the WG, so I think Hancock would mellow out a bit if Luffy was around.
Some are saying she's too strong. Robin technically had a higher bounty than Luffy when she first 'joined'. And Hancock's mastery of Haki may be powerful but also serves as a bridge to teach the others how to use it, thus she could potentially also be the catalyst for upgrading their abilities. I mean does every AL chick just know how to use the stuff right away?
I'm not saying it will happen, just saying it seems the most likely scenario.
Then again, Perona may get 'Love Sickness' for Usopp as he was the only man to ever resist her power. Much like Hancock for Luffy....
Hancock could join that's true but I see her as inspired from chichi in dragonball.
A princess from a distant land promising love to a retarded heroe…
I see an insipiration in it...I am sure luffy will meet her in the end to marry her.
Let's not turn this thread into a "who will join" thread. There's a thread for that, you know. If you started that because of my sig, ignore that. I've only put it there to piss off some Perona fans in the "next crewmate" thread (and I was not the one who wrote it in the first place).

I hardly call this a victory for the WG. Marine HQ & Impel Down have both fallen. Whitebeard with his last breath screams out "One Piece, It Exists" and BB betrayed them by releasing several legendary criminals back into the open sea. This whole thing has been a complete disaster for the WG & a major embarassment as well.
The only real winner here is, as sum1 already said, Blackbeard.
The Shichbukai still exist with just Hawkeyes, Kuma, Moria, DoFlamingo & possibly Hancock.
I don't think there is even a remote chance of Boa Hancock joining the crew.
Personally, I believe when One Piece is done, Luffy and Hancock will have a child together and you will see her giving birth to this child towards the end of the series.
Unfortunately, Luffy has to "actually" realize Boa Hancock has feelings for him. I could see Nami losing patience with the fact that Luffy hasn't realized it and slapping him upside the head and finally giving him a clue .

Agreed.
What is the one thing the WG desires most? It is stability and each group providing a check to the other. The direct opposite has happened as the result of this Arc.
As a matter of fact, I think the outcome of this war turned out so bad for the Marines that I would if Sengoku could do it all over, would he rather not have Ace captured.
As you stated, I believe the only group that won are the Blackbeard Pirates.
Depending on what role you think Doflamingo is going to play, a case could be made that he came out ahead as well.

Sometimes the idea of DoFlamingo also joining Blackbeard comes to mind. Half of me think this is a crazy cool idea that makes perfect sense because DoFlamingo respects the mighty and seems to like mayhem and chaos, while some the other half thinks this is a crazy dumb idea and DoFlamingo has lots of servants and would never serve under anyone.
DoFla wouldn't fit the BBs. BB believes in dreams and fate. DoFla doesn't^^ Like Bellamy

That's not really true. THis is a copy of a post I made today in the main Blackbeard thread:
I don't think DoFlamingo shares Bellamy's ideas. Here's from Stephen's script:
- Page 151 -
Crew: Bellamy!!!
Sarquiss!!
Please, stop them!!!Sarquiss: Please…!!
Stop it...!!!
Why...?!People: What's going on?!
Sarquiss looks worse...Doflamingo: Why?
You want to know why? Sarquiss...
Bellamy...
Because MY symbol
has been disgraced. Why else?
Hahaha!! Hah hah hah!!
- Page 152 -
Doflamingo: Whether Sky Island exists…
or not,
or if the City of Gold is an illusion
or not...
neither of those matter... right, Bellamy...?
You use both opinions... AND PIN 'EM DOWN!!!
- Page 153 -
People: Donquixote Doflamingo…
Ah...
It's a "Shichibukai"...!!
He used to be worth 300 million Berries.
So what is he doing here...?Doflamingo: I don't need...
COMMON THUGS IN MY RANKS, BOYS...!!Sarquiss: Aaah...!!!
Shit...!! My body won't...!! ...aah!!
Stop it...!! Please, don't!! NO!!!Person: Bellamy!!!
- Page 154 -
Bellamy: ...give me...!! Another chance...!!!
I...
I'll follow your orders!!!Crew: Bellamy!!
Bellamy... that's enough!!!Bellamy: ...I've lost...
Hahh...
But I never intended to go against your ideas!!! I swear to the symbol!!
It's just… this is how I do things!!!
Destroy all those weakminded fools...
and someday I'll be where you are.Doflamingo: …sigh...
You're making me cry, my sweet, obedient henchman.
You know, Bellamy...
that's what I like about you...!!
...hahahahahaha...!!! The "New Era" is nearly upon us.
Feel free to do what you want.
...but,
- Page 155 -
Doflamingo: I don't need you on my side.
Sarquiss: AAAAAH!!
Bellamy: Dofla...
People: AAAAAAHH!!
Kyaaa!!Doflamingo: Mmmmmm... hahahaha!!!
People: That 55 million rookie, Bellamy...!!!
Tossed around like a child...Doflamingo: HAH HAH HAH!! IT'S COMING!!
HURRY!! MAKE YOUR PREPARATIONS!!!
GET READY FOR A WORLD IN WHICH ONLY THE REAL PIRATES WILL SURVIVE!!!
WEAK AND HELPLESS, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
THE UNCONTROLLABLE WAVES WILL BRING
A "NEW ERA" OF GREAT MEN AND HEROES!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Bellamy seems to kick out weaklings and don't believe in dreams.
DoFlamingo, however, thinks that might makes right, and judge people by their strength, rather than their beliefs. Since Bellamy lost, he's now worthless to DoFlamingo.
But Blackbeard is pretty powerful. He came on top of the marines and Whitebeard. Remember DoFlamingo saying that whoever wins this war becomes justice?
Well, I decided to move this particular discussion to the next crewmate thread. If anyone wanna talk about who may or may not join Blackbeard, let's head to that thread: http://www.apforums.net/showthread.php?t=26457&page=59

He was so-named because he had done what no other had done (in the eyes of the people anyways), conquered the Grand Line.
Chapter 506 and chapter 0 would claim otherwise. In 506, for example, Rayleigh talks about Roger's reaction to the title.
In the chapters to come, I'm expecting this kind of reaction from the one piece world:
http://en.tackfilm.se/?id=1267889384900RA82
Also, didn't Whitebeard kind of screw up Luffy's adventure? Luffy didn't want to know if there was even a treasure (http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/507/08/), and said he'd quit if he found out because he doesn't want to go on boring adventures. But then again, I guess Luffy would do it now regardless, for Ace's dream of Luffy becoming king.
I doubt Moria will get to take Whitebeard or Ace's body. They're too powerful for the WG to just handover to a pirate nutjob who could basically betray the WG at any moment. Garp has enough respect for WB and Ace to have them buried/cremated properly.
Fucking powerful chapter though. I'm thinking 1-2 chapters left until a time skip. Fuck, Oda deserves a Nobel Prize. If Obama can get one for being half white, Oda should get one for his literary masterpiece.

Personally, I believe Doflamingo has given up all ambitions (assuming he had them) to be Pirate King.
I think when it is said and done, you will see Doflamingo supporting Blackbeard's bid to be Pirate King, directly and/or indirectly.
I don't believe Teach and Doflamingo will ever cross swords but I think Doflamingo and the Strawhats will.
On the other hand, I could kind of see him being a character similar to "The Watcher" in Marvel Comics. Where he really doesn't do anything but just observe all the chaos and happenings in the "New Era".
Hmmm just realize this now. Catarina might be a former bounty hunter.
Hmmm just realize this now. Catarina might be a former bounty hunter.
Even though Ivankov referred to all of them as pirates?
I suppose she could have been a bounty hunter before she was a pirate, like Zoro. That's kind of a stretch, though.
What exactly is a "Crescent Moon Hunter"?
