You mean apart from having to make the doors bigger?
Hahaha, yea, aside from that, lol. xP
did u read the chapter LOL
:o They said what improvements he made on the ship in the chapter? O_o :P
I remember someone mentioning weapons, but nothin' specific..:wassat: Or maybe I just need to reread it, lol..:P
I wonder if Franky's implemented any new features into the Sunny-go in any way, eh?
Someone had the suggestion that Franky installed an AI, turned the ship into a mecha, and he would now fight all his battles from inside it.
That sounds about right.
Awesome chapter, except I have a few lingering questions.
What happened to Chopper's sense of smell/vivre card he got from Shakky? He is so lost on Sabaody that it's not making sense. It does make a convenient comedy scene and gets rid of the fake Strawhats, but still…
Was Zoro meant to be so ... poetic on the last page? Did Mihawk really rub off on him that much? Maybe the training had more of being more like a mysterious person than just a grumpy person. 
Awesome haki skills from Luffy! He can direct it and it's pretty powerful, but the fake Strawhats did recover pretty fast. Did Luffy go easy on them, or they're not worth the effort?
Franky's still drinking cola, although it seems he can down a barrel at a time. His hair is still short though. Maybe it means he's on power saver mode and not using that much cola?
Can't wait for 600 and Brook to be back on the Sunny!
Hopefully someone's taking care of him…

What Haki do you think Zoro has mastered?
CoA for me since if he had CoO, he would be able to predict that the ship he was on was going under the sea. Not unless his CoO is still weak that it doesn't work while he's sleeping.
Luffy using Haki made me jizz like how Hancock did in the latest anime episode. So freaking awesome. Luffy doesn't need to punch fodder like he did in the past, now he just looks at them and knocks them out!
I have always loved Boa Hancock, but her joining does not balance the monster trio, Hanock is in my opinion stronger than Sanji at least, and that does not count her using her ability to insta-stone him. She clearly had the upper hand against Smoker.
As much as I would love to see Luffy destroy Sentomaru, I am sure he is still not strong enough for him just yet. Maybe to fight on an semi-equal level, but not total defeat.

CoA for me since if he had CoO, he would be able to predict that the ship he was on was going under the sea. Not unless his CoO is still weak that it doesn't work while he's sleeping.
The ship submerging wouldn't actually be a danger to him, so it likely didn't set off any warnings.
Change is fine. I know I don't like them because there is nothing aesthetically pleasing to them at all. They do not feet anything else in the design and feel like they were added last second.
It might be the fact that they look like they are a kids toy, design wise. Firstly, because of the primary color scheme, and secondary since they are basically a cube and a ball.
That and his Popeye arms and hair were a huge part of why people liked him. I mean it was like Oda stripped him from what made him so cool. The only thing Oda missed was the Speedo and the shades.
It's even more basic for me. Before, Franky was more man than machine. Sure he had some mechanical parts, but not that much. Now…he's more cyborg than ever. And an exaggerated one at that. No need to make his arms that much bigger. It'll be so annoying to draw (we'll see if his arms stay that big in 10 chapters time)
That said, I'm not against Franky's new look. I have it a shade below Robin's, but it doesn't suck. Just not my cup of tea.

1. Yeah, I agree, with Chopper's sense of smell, you'd figure he'd be able to tell who the real Strawhats are, but consider this a)Maybe he lost their scent over the two years, or b) it's just a throwaway joke that we really don't need to read into too much. Oda often sacrifices logic for humor.
2. Zoro's part was definitely a callback to Mihawk's entrance, so yes, I think that was intentional. And I honestly just found the whole scene humorous, not mysterious. He just got on the wrong ship and had to fight his way out once he found out. Since when has he ever had a problem with cutting a few people down that are in his way?
3. Luffy probably didn't think they were worth the effort. If he can knock them out with haki why bother moving? Plus he's probably trying to keep a low profile.
4. I have no idea. Franky should switch to Coke Zero.

robin is sexy now :wub:
It seems like they're setting up a battle between the Monster Trio and Sentomaru (plus 2 Pacifistas). I'd be giddy with joy with the fight ends up being a complete curb-stomp battle. I'm betting the fight lasts less than one chapter.
No reason to believe that Sentoumaru hasn't gotten stronger or that the Pacifista's haven't had upgrades themselves.
Nevertheless it's not going to be a fight the SHs lose though I don't know about it being just the monster trio.
Also - lol at the poor guys who had their ship with the spanking new coating utterly destroyed :)))
What do u think the probability is that Luffy got Hancock pregnant at some point in the past few months?
Perhaps a big reveal at the end of the series a la Ace and Roger?

I was kinda hoping it was foxy's ship
Wow, great chapter. I was grinning the whole time.
And I don't know why, but one of the best parts of the chapter for me was simply seeing Sunny all shiny. I love that ship, and I bet he's been lonely for two years with only Duval as company.

And when this manga closes out, and Luffy's arm stretches back to deliver that last punch, I wanna feel the crunch of the dream coming true.

2. I guess I was thinking how Zoro could have said it in a Mihawk-ish voice, deep and a little reverberating. You're right. Ship in half, same thing as Mihawk.
4. Nah, Coke Zero don't have enough fizz to keep him going. I'm still waiting for those arms to be detached and/or fitting into part of the machinery/weapon on the Sunny. That would be awesome.

Why thank you.
But as great as I find Luffy's bare chest, I can't bring myself to remove the words. Sorry ;D

Franky is gonna be like the Virtue from Gundam 00: he's gonna open up and a smaller/skinnier Franky will pop out, and skinny Franky's ability will be purely to control the Sunny lol

well if it can be attached to Sunny, then for sure we know Sunny can turn into a T-rex on land, since they got tiny lil arms =3
Hey here is a thought what if zoro lost hi eye from actually beating, mihawk. and instead of oda showing us a fight between them in the future he can show us a flashback on how zoro became the greatest swordsmen. Just a thought. Chapter was amazing cant wait for sanji and zoro to start insulting each other

I don't think that will happen.
Oda has consistently kept Luffys personality the same throughout every arc. Namely: A child-like reasoning and intelligence.
Luffys reaction towards Hancock about marriage is completely expected of a young boy. Luffy, quite frankly, probably couldn't connect the dots between a man and a woman regarding such affairs in my opinion.
Oh btw I'm new
I just had another thought. If Zoro's eye was really blind, it can showcase Chopper's new medical knowledge. When it was said that Zoro won't be able to see again, here Chopper comes to the rescue and says otherwise. lol… a bit farfetched but I wanna see epic chopper medical skills! XD
It's pretty scary that people can take LuffyXHancock seriously as a pairing.

this is the worst prediction ever made LOL.
1. he is learning from the person he wants to surpass, and ALL he loses from fighting mihawk and WINNING is the lost of sight from one eye?
2. Mihawk would be out of the story just like tat?
3. I'm sure if swordfighting, each practice is life or death, and we know that mihawk wouldn't be making a mistake that would get him killed.
4. Assuming old power levels, Luffy had trouble/close to death/lost to all the shichibukai, where zoro is technically luffy's level if not lower. even assuming that mihawk is on par with say Moria/Crocodile which most likely is several times stronger, within the 2 years zoro wouldn't be able to take out mihawk just like that, with again, just a scratch on his eye.

u should read the posts sometimes =P, i believe this "thought" has already been thought up…several hundred times in the LAST chapter lol

lol ya i know rite?
Sentomaru and the pacifistas are an excellent opponent for testing Strawhats new strenght. Why? Because we know them and know their strenght.
As cyborgs, pacifistas are excellent punching bags :happy: And, Sentomaru is a haki user, thus we can assess Luffys new Haki abilities.
I'm very excited about "One Piece Part 2".

that dusnt mean Hancock cudnt have taken the iniative :D Hi btw
that dusnt mean Hancock cudnt have taken the iniative :D Hi btw
lol thanks.
I still can't imagine it to be. Even if Hancock took the initiative, she only knows about marriage and men through what she was taught through the Kuba kingdom. I doubt a tribe of amazon women have knowledge on such affairs.
edit: "Mushroom" need I say more?
lol thanks.

Luffy seems like a "hit and run" kinda guy if you catch my drift ;). I can see it happening. Then again I can also see it not happening.
Not only Zoro talk like Mihawk, when he is bored, he act like him and he slice the ship exactly like him =x
I don't see what's exactly wrong about this. The scene was made to remind us of Zoro's training with Mihawk. It was clearly set up to remind us of Mihawk's entrance. I'm not exactly sure what kind of slicing fits your ideal scenario besides slicing it neatly in half?
I doubt we will lose Zoro's character just because of Mihawk's training. So there's no need to be worried and if not, think that scene is just plain funny. He cut it in half coz he got on the wrong boat and the boat was heading to fishman island. Mihawk cut Krieg's ship coz he was bored if I remember it correctly…
Nice !! It loooks like the characters are finally all introduced and now that all players are in place we can get to the actual fighting!
Way I see it the fight will probably go
Admiral vs Luffy
Sentomaru vs Zorro
Pacifista X-5 vs Sanji
Pacifista X-7 vs Franky
Robin and Brook vs the 200 mil rookies
Nami and Usoop finishing off the fake Strawhats by themselves along with the other 98 fodder
Chopper beating up a few rebels and freeing fake Robin
However predictions aside I am really excited to see what has happened to Robin. With the other Strawhats there is not mot much creativity left as far as their powers development is concerned(except maybe for Sanji). But Robin …the only thing I can think of as a major power up for her(aside from Haki) is if she learned how to use her powers to turn into a giant. But knowing Oda he can go in completely unexpected directions. I can't wait to see her fight. I also bet she is now strong enough to fly around as much as she wants rather then being limited to a few seconds.
I also love that they are finally drawing her awesomely again. They kinda screwed up with her in some of the previous chapters.
I don't think Luffy is quite at the level to take on an admiral. That's pretty silly. If there is even a fight that lasts longer than a chapter, its showdown will probably look like this:
Sentomaru vs Luffy
Pacifista X-5 vs Zoro
Pacifista X-7 vs Sanji
Fake Straw Hats & Recruits vs Rest
=/ And, of course, Chopper can go save the pickle chick.
Ummmmm Zoro's pretty BA. No objections.
Ummmmm I wonder if we got a new admiral. I really want to see them, if so.
Show us blackbeard too effffffffffffffffffffff
The only good theories I like:
Blackbeard Cerberus
:D THAT'S IT.
u should read the posts sometimes =P, i believe this "thought" has already been thought up…several hundred times in the LAST chapter lol
Ah, I should have guessed! Haha! Too excited at times. It's really hard to catch your thoughts from the chapter as well as reading the posts that seem to update really fast! Hahaha! Tis what I enjoy about this forums I believe! XD

I could definitely see Luffy getting some payback on Sentomaru
Hey!!! IT'S YOU!!?!!!
Sanji and Zoro will undoubtedly have a hand in aiding their captain with the pacifistas, but I believe it's a chance for all the Strawhats to display some of what they have learned over the past 2 years.
I expect an epic battle at Shabaody and and even greater escape during this scenario.
Oda will again have the strawhats on the run while they escape barely to mermaid island. . . But only for a respite, as they will soon have to contend with whatever dark forces have amassed in Whitebeards absence.
Get ready for a brand new story
Looking forward to Zoro's new poems.
Have always been fan of Oda's poetry.

and C) he's able to use great sense of smell only in the 4 legs reindeer form. :ninja:

maybe, that's why it's C reason. just like your A and B assumption.

It is true, it was revealed in one piece movie and somewhere else..forgetting exactly where.

No. My A and B were just possible theories. They didn't involve me making facts up. Just pointing out possibilities.
It is true, it was revealed in one piece movie and somewhere else..forgetting exactly where.
I don't know if movies are the best way to find steadfast world rules.
P.S. I'm not trying to sound like an asshole, but I can see that it's probably coming across that way lol.
I think Chopper can smell in all forms but his best form for smelling is in reindeer form.
and 2 years apart affects his scent recognize also may be the cause too.
I think you guys are taking it a little too serious, I personally thought Oda was just being humorous.
So next chapter, when all those fodder marines go to "set up" that perimeter on the grove Zoro and Sanji are currently on (42), that'll be pretty fun.
edit: "Mushroom" need I say more?
Hancock is different from those other amazons. Don't forget, she was a SLAVE to the Tenryuubito over 20 years ago. One Piece may be a light-hearted adventure, but think of the world nobles. What the hell do you think they did to young girls, and why do you think that Hancock has a hatred for men in particular, like that?! The fact that Luffy was both understanding of her situation AND very clearly didn't think sexual thoughts about her are what made her fall in love. Even if they were to ever get married, Hancock might never be willing to bear Luffy's children.
If Sentomaru is supposed to be Vegapunk's bodyguard, I'd hope he doesn't go down directly right now. The supposed genius of the world should have a beastly bodyguard
