Last I checked Luffy wasn't trying to become the Adventurer king or Rescuer king..
Just ignore him, we all do.

Luffys moral is only centered around himself… Afterall, he fucking freed the most powerful criminals from impel down and didnt even care... Hell he did free Croco who is a mass murderer .... Luffy only helps if he gains something (helping a friend is egoistic ).
@Sonic:
Another thing I've been wondering about is:
The pirates who attacked Brooks former pirate clan "The Rumba Pirates", was it maybe Van Der Decken!?
I mean, arrows, amarite? And Brook seemed very scared everytime Van Der Deckens name was mentioned in these latest chapters.
I thought he believed Decken was an actual ghost after hearing about him in an earlier chapter? It would seem to just be part of his "Skeleton scared of the supernatural" bit.

Pretty sure it wasn't Luffy's plan to free everyone from Impel Down. On his way down, he freed Bon Clay and Galdino, and also got the Okamas to leave. When they reached level 6, Luffy only freed Jinbei. He wasn't going to free Crocodile, but agreed so they could get out. They never freed the Level 6 guys, that was Blackbeard's doing.
How about when he fought Enel? He could have easily just turned around when everyone was safe and left. He wanted to let Cricket hear the bell.

I seriously doubt they're the only pirate crew in the world that used arrows.
Plus, the people who attacked the Rumba crew 52 years ago used poisoned weapons of all sorts. Just a theory, but it's possible that whoever killed them off was the previous user of Magellan's fruit.
As others said, it's likely Brook's fear of VDD is from the legend of the original. Likely, the original VDD ate the same fruit, which is passed down from generation to generation until it reached the current VDD.
Yeah I figured so much, I was just trying to enhance the theory. But I would seriously like Brook to get mad at someone…

Then the Vander Deckens know how transfer the devilfruit ability to another person(here the next generation), just like BB and also Vegapunk.
@Mr.:
That would take away from the epicness of a 1 on 1 fight. Jinbei's going to be a team player too-I think. So I can see one taking on Hodi and the other taking on Decken.
Yeah well, the more i read the more it's starting to look like 1on1 fight, but
I cant help but remember how Aokiji was able to take down luffy and half of the crew so easily. Then late Kuma almost wipe out the entire crew.
Because of that, I will be expecting Luffy to take on his New World power and beat up the duo alone like the punks they are at their homefield with very little effort. He will need the energy later to take on the NW opponents anyway.
Decken and Hodi arent at the New World level anyway. Just borderline.

Next generation..hmm sound like Fairy tale's Dragon Slayers New Generation.
Or: while Vander Decken VIII was raiding a ship, little Vander Decken IX found the devil fruit and ate it before he know what it was.
Next generation..hmm sound like Fairy tale's Dragon Slayers New Generation.
Those ones are fakes ! :getlost:
Just wondering about one thing. When VDD uses his right hand to throw the pirates at the princess, wouldn't that make the pirate he touches the new target. Since he touches another person without his glove?

He probably puts his glove back on to throw them.
Really interesting chapter, Oda is starting to develop Hodi`s character, and as most of us expected, it seems that he will be redemed.
I am with the group of people that thinks that Hodi is not going to be the main vilian, and I have one in mind that could very well be the main villian of the arc…Well, actually, I have two.
I think that Caribou and Coribou are going to be the main villians of the arc, being the final fight a 2 vs 1 against Luffy or a 2 vs 2 against Luffy and Jimbei. I think that Caribou, seeing that the NFP are trying to take over the ryuugu palace will take this chance in his favor in order to take the Ryuugu palace and become the "ruler" of FI, so he can sell as many fishpeople as he wants. If this happens, he will be the one to defeat Hodi. As for Coribou, while he is not at the island at the moment, he only has to recover a little on Shabaody, steal a coated boat and travel to Gyojin island, a much easier feat with Surume taken out and the NFP attacking the Ryuugu palace and not guarding the island entrance. He will reunite with his brother and make a plan in order to take control of the island. I also think he will be the main villian because in this arc we will see the Crew's improvement, and a logia is the best way to show how Luffy has improved (If Zoro and Sanji don't have Haki, he is the only one able to beat him). Also, Caribou and Coribou combined bounties equal Luffy's, so in the government eyes both combined possess a similar threat level that Luffy. In my opinion, it would be great to have as first second part villian two superrokies of the new generation.
BTW, am I the only one that after seeing again Shirahosi's love for adventure and that she has a tragic past that involves her mother dying (With this and Fisher tiger and Taiyou pirates story, the flashback is going to be fantastic) is think that she really has chances to become a new nakama? If you think about, she could be the one fighting Wadatsumi this arc (And Wolf in Raftel, beeing the strawhat who will fight giant guys xDD). But it is yet too soon to speak about this (As of now, she doesnt seem even able to fight xDD).
This is trully an exciting arc, cant wait for the next chapter!! I will close the post with my "for the moment prediction fights" (Beeing Zoro the only one I am 100% sure).
-Luffy (And maybe Jimbei) vs Caribou and Coribou.
-Zoro vs Hyozou.
-Sanji vs VanDerDecken.
See you guys!
I think the pirates we saw on SA will come with Caribous brother (they could just say they were coated that is why they did not die and for some reason they floated they did not sink)
They will be the second group to be sent and they open it up before they are all defeated.
sanji vs decken, i can also see it happening..i think sanji will be angry at decken for stalking the princess for ten years..

This! This is going to happen. It's so obvious if you think about it. I always thought that Brook got scared whenever someone mentions Van der Decken because he's the oldest one so he already heard of him. But this is a great theory. I really hope it's going to happen, I want to see badass and super pissed Brook.
I think people here are thinking to much without clear mind.
1. Van der decken or his father did not attack brooks crew…. Hell everyone can usw arrows.
2. The princess will NOT be a member of the strawhats.... Just no she doesnt have any combatabilities or even the the right mind for something like that.
SHE is nothing compared to Wolf.... You know how fucking huge wolf is? The princess is like his foot nothing more.
3. Hodi i dont know. He actually let hatchi be killed. He should not be redemeed.
Actually this Arc is quite confusing wiith the matchups and powerlevels... Because all the Fishman just seems freaking weak compared to the Shs... Even the preskip-Strawhats look stronger. Of course the pills are for that but i dont know how to feel about them. I can be wrong but it only was said that they increase strengh but not speed and thats weak :/. Especialy Van der decken and Hyzou (sry cant write him) doesnt seem to want the pills but i could be wrong

Well Hachi is still alive and Hodi was not the one who attacked him and he even said he respected Hachi before he tryed to talk them out of it and say the strawhats were his friends.
He looks up to Arlong who hates humans.
The princess just doesn't seem right. It would be annoying seeing her try and walk around on land. Luffy raised his voice, and she cried.
So Decken's ability is only limited two targets?
Then how does his right hand knows where to throw the pirates?

Because it doesn't matter with which hand he throws?
Great chapter.
16 characters - I think.
Don't know if i think they seem too weak, they probably pack a punch. But they just seem sooo small-time. After the war and all those monsters and their world shattering plans we saw there we get to watch some local bullies try their hand at this here villain game. Just seems like a step back. Like people have said here before, i can't see Hodi with his "ambition" ever being more than a local "boss". He's as small as small fry come.
I think right now, one piece is taking a step back. They are under the ocean, away from all the drama. After this arc, in New World, things will get REAL lol. Thats where the supernova, blackbeard, yonkou, ect are.
after this chapter i could see hodi as the next nakama or maybe a uprgraded hachi. even though hachi did get whooped by deken he was already injured and he had been fighting for the last 2 years protecting Sunny so he could be stronger. the only thing i wouldnt like about it is hes a swordsman but that may not be a issue
A guy who hates humans maybe more then Arlong did is never going to join. Him even being in a Wiper-like ally some people think is too much even then.
