Two words, Reverie arc :D
Holy crap and now that another week will pass in the OP world, I think there actually might be a chance for a reverie arc. It'll post-pone the New World more, but..

For some absurd reason, I still see Caribou pulling a Robin….I don't know why though...
Caribou should rename his crew into the team rocket crew and follow the strawhats just to mess with them every arc.
Oh, what I said about MZ, scratch that. They've confused the last dialogue regarding Joy Boy. MS always takes liberty with its translations, so that's why they tend to make mistakes too.
And now I will actually get some sleep done… sorry if I confused anyone. I'm not at the usual quality right now...
Pretty good chapter. Oda pulled people's legs for the time being too :P
I liked the ending and I actualy chuckled a bit at Neptune thinking Robin wanted some of that chest hair.
And seriously, who wouldn't ? :ninja:
Do you guys think it´s possible that the duty Jinbe was talking about is to catch the thief who took all the treasures in the palace?
Though i´m not certain if Jinbe know about it but in my opinion it would really close all the threads neatly if by coincidence Luffy and co catch Caribou and basically release Jinbe from his duty.
Btw, maybe it´s clear from my post that i really hope that Jinbe would join this arc.
Nah Jinbe probably doesn't even know about that, he wasn't at the castle he was with the SHs.

Two words, Reverie arc :D
If FI makes its appeal to the WG at the Reverie, this is no doubt where the WG will find out about Shirahoshi, but that doesn't tell us what Neptune is going to do about it. I just don't see him being willing to make Shirahoshi into a WMD capable of holding off the WG. So he can't really use her as a threat. But I don't see him sending her away either. And judging by the way he talks to Robin about her he doesn't think he can hide her ability for long.
Man, why didn't I said anything here about Shirahoshi or Noah begin "part" of the Poisedon? Meh, I knewn it, more or less, but… whatever
This was a cool chapter, more music for the anime. Too bad Jinbe didn't joined yet, but I guess he'll show up in an important moment to help the SHs.

It would be hilarious to have a dumb side villain like that in One Piece. XD Although I don't care for pokemon
Nah Jinbe probably doesn't even know about that, he wasn't at the castle he was with the SHs.
Yeah, it may be something from a long time ago. I wonder if Jinbe was waiting all this time for Luffy to come and leave before he do this duty of his. Y'know, when he promised to wait in FI for Luffy 2 years ago.
I just hope Jimbei doesn't take too long to solve his issues
Amazing chapter, the crew interacting with each other was great. Atleast we got a good ending because this arc has been boring. I guess they will probably have a rescue princess arc or something in like 200 chapters when the WG or a Pirate figures out her secret.
Lmao at Zoro comment
Kinda disappointed Jimbe didn't join. I wasn't a massive fan but I think he would have grown on me. I didn't like Brook but he grew on me this arc. I still think there is a chance Jimbe will still join as Luffy doesn't give up easy for new crew mates. I really want a fishman to join but I really don't want Shirahoshi.
What is with poseidon joining Luffy and the new world, how is the new world and a crew of 9 going to make her any safer than she is at the Island, are guys just saying this just to make an opinion or are they serious.
I like how jinbei is been real with his decision, just because he helped the straw hats doesn't mean he is going to join them immediately he has a life and things he was responsible for before he came, so I think Oda handled that perfectly.
As for the people saying they saw/predicted Weakahoshi as a WMD, I am calling them out on their Bullshit.
I think we should accept that no one is joining them in this arc.Otherwise an impressive chapter.

Jinbei will probably join after he deals with whatever he has to. It's not like Vivi, where he has to stay away. Remember he was a captain of his crew. Everyone seems to forget that.
It's a weird twist that Oda's just pulled. It's the first time a character agrees to join but at a later time. I wonder when Jinbe's "duties" will be explained but they are probably connected to the Sun pirates who were mysteriously absent during this arc.
But it's fun to see that Jinbe's postponed joining gave his haters a new last straw to clutch at.
Robin:wub:.
"In the ancient times, these trash they call themselves humans envied the fishman race who were chosen by the heavens… and feared our very existence. They answered with discrimination!!The humans road the earth with no reserve like maggots, and using the only advantage they have, the fact they out number us, they drove us into the bottom of the ocean...."
Likely that what Arlong described happened 800 years ago right the birth of FI, so was Joy Boy's promise to use Noah to bring Fishmen back to the surface? Reading Neptune's words and the mermaid legend you would think it was more to do with 'guiding' Poseidon? Was it just both, guide the mermaid princess to use her power and guide the sea kings to pull Noah to the surface lol(hope it's a bit more exciting than this)? When is that great world change coming up(at the Reverie?)? Someone think this stuff out and give us a nice theory please. And I agree with whoever said Joy Boy must have been a monarch. Thank you for all the translations.
Shirahoshi will join now. Obviously staying 10000 meters under the sea isn't safe, so Luffy need to take her with him to where it is safe. The New World.
lol asm
sorry double post
Ok I have to make a guess about joy boys promise, I would say he promised to lead the whole fishmen race to the ancient kingdom to live together there.
I'll just say this right now, a while back it was confirmed that a man would appear to lead Shirahoshi in the use of her powers, i'm going to say that man is Jimbei and he'll never be able to join.
What is with poseidon joining Luffy and the new world, how is the new world and a crew of 9 going to make her any safer than she is at the Island, are guys just saying this just to make an opinion or are they serious.
In a way Shirahoshi might very well be safer with the SH. Because the WG once it finds out about her ability- and it will no doubt eventually- won't have a fixed target. If the WG wants to it can wipe FI off the map, but it doesn't since it wouldn't be worth the effort. Poseidon's reappearance might change that opinion and even Big Mom's name won't protect her.
Hope Shirahoshi's powers are more than controlling Sea Kings as they have always been portrayed as fodder. A whole lot of them could do some damage but still was expecting more than that. Also of Luffy has the same ability as was implied, does that mean he's also an ancient weapon…?
The WG haven't found out about her ability in years, why do people think they will now?
So Jinbe didn't deny the request just delayed it. Odd first time we got that. Zoro's hero comment was was lolz, not to mention Luffy's "Stup up! Don't say a word! I'm eating all the meat!" Also a like shoker with Shirahoshi being posiden and it's nice to finally have some clarification on the poneglyph.
And now I will actually get some sleep done… sorry if I confused anyone. I'm not at the usual quality right now...
We still love you rubia :D

I suppose so but I get the feeling that this just means he will join them for the end battle against the government but hopefully he'll join soon enough

Luffy can hear them and even talk to them, but he can't command them.

Because only now has her ability fully awoken. Before it happened just once accidentally. Now all of FI knows of her ability or soon will
My guess is that they'll come up against an enemy in a future arc and suddenly, JINBEI! Then we'd probably get a flashback of what he had to take care of. Maybe something to do with Koala or Arlong?
I'm just grinning my face off at the feast. Looking forward to hearing another song too. One Piece is one of the few fantasy/adventure animes I've watched where there are in-world songs - especially ones that are so awesome and catchy. Ore tachi wa, Family and Binksu no Sake as well as New World are all great songs that stand on their own as legitimate songs. ^.^
Oh Neptune, you only wish she was coming on to you, you great drunken sod, you. XD
Methinks maybe Joy Boy was in love with the mermaid princess of that time and promised to return - maybe to free her of her curse, or something. Perhaps to marry her? I dunno. (Obviously.)
Heh, running away so as not to share the meat/ale. I think this might just become another running gag. :P
I don't think Shirahoshi will join. Her face is almost as big as Sunny is in some of the shots. It'd be far too impractical for her to join. She'll probably be held in the 'wings' until the major conflict to come - like Vivi, Water 7 and all the other allies the Mugiwaras have made along the way. One thing I'll say is that it'd be an epic battle!
Also, did anyone else see in the newest (?) SBS where Oda mentioned something about the Marines? Methinks there's something big in the works. I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Also, also, am I the only one reminded of the Eve of Gold Feast? I dunno, there's a vibe I'm picking up in this chapter that's like it or something. It may be nothing but I'm not sure we're completely done with Fishman Island just yet…
Oh and Nami is doing her normal 'drink everyone under the table' thing with Fukiboshi. You go girl! Represent!
Because only now has her ability fully awoken. Before it happened just once accidentally. Now all of FI knows of her ability or soon will
How does that work? Why would they tell people about that?
Oh, how naive people can be~
Jinbe will never join the crew. Not until they find One Piece and we finish the main story.
It wouldn't make sense for Jinbei to not join at all with all the build-up. Delaying it, I understand, but not joining at all would be kinda underwhelming with all the hints.
Luffy can hear them and even talk to them, but he can't command them.
Where exactly was it implied that Luffy could also talk to them?
Also, why hasn't this thread been stickied yet?
The WG haven't found out about her ability in years, why do people think they will now?
Because there are hundreds of pirates on their way to the new world who have WITNESSED her power. If one of them gets caught and he tells his story to the marines and the report goes to the elder than they will send a big and strong military force to capture or kill “Poseidon”.
I'd like to think I called the Shirahoshi being Poseidon, although I only really just pointed out the possibility.
Good post-fighting chapter, cool developments.
Human pirates witnessed it.
At this point everybody thinks that the Sea Kings stopped Noah because for them it seems to be important (remember the broadcast). Nobody besides the Royal Family, Jinbe, VDD and Hody knows about her ability to speak and command Sea Kings. The only one who made that connection is Robin.
How does that work? Why would they tell people about that?
Human pirates witnessed it.
What bluntzilla said. Don't underestimate the information gathering ability of the WG. Neptune is clearly scared of Shirahoshi being Poseidon's successor and since he obviously isn't scared of Shirahoshi the logical conclusion is that he's scared of what happens when others find out. The only others who count are the WG.

And she made it because she knew what was written on the Poneglyph on SI. However, the WG knows about the Void Century and about Poseidon. So they can arrive at the same conclusions as Robin did once they hear about the Seakings.
Wasn't that sarcasm :P
We'll be the ones to laugh in the end, worry not~
This chapterrrrrr
Where in the bowels of the internet did this horrid thing come from!?
Also, did anyone else see in the newest (?) SBS where Oda mentioned something about the Marines? Methinks there's something big in the works. I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Someone have that sbs? if that is true it will be amazing.
I get this bad feeling that Jinbei is going to die. Otherwise he would have joined right away. Plot-wise, it means that something is going to happen that prevents that him from meeting them again.
Oda said that a big incident happened in the Marines during 2Y and that he can't wait to start writing about it in the story. SBS Vol 64
If a World Noble didn't make WG find out, why would random pirates do it?
C'mon people. Jinbe is a man of his word. If he said he's gonna join, he will, no matter what. It's not so hard imagine he's gonna join at some critical fighting point in the future. So we can consider him a member.
About Shirahoshi. Even if we suppose that the WG will be informed about her power, how can they force her to call the sea kings? She's not a war ship you can use to attack the enemy, she is a living being. Also, kidnapping a princess of a country that is an official member of the WG would cause instability of their balance.

What about Decken's crew mates? It doesn't matter anyways. You don't think the WG will eventually be able to figure out that Shirahoshi can summon and talk to sea kings based on what thousands of people witnessed, not just the second time but also the first time the sea kings were called?
If a World Noble didn't make WG find out, why would random pirates do it?
World Nobles are idiots. That specific world noble had the brain of worm. At that time only a few people even relized that it was shirahoshi who called them. This time it is different. Most people have realized it and talked about how "strange" it is that Seakings helped. Simple the fact that the seakings helped out will be enough for the 5 Elders to count 2 and 2 together.
The events on FI alone are important enough to tell the elders and those 5 know a lot of things about the weapons and the lost history. They WILL figure it out and they will try to solve the threat.
Poseidon either has to be hidden somewhere safe(the only place I know would be the Island of Boa) or will have to protected the whole time by a strong force which can deal with marines top people.

Like he said, however I do think that there are three choices for Neptune and not just two: Running, hiding or fighting.
Poseidon either has to be hidden somewhere safe(the only place I know would be the Island of Boa) or will have to protected the whole time by a strong force which can deal with marines top people.
10000m under the sea + huuuge seakings guarding the place is safe enough, even admirals would have little chance in that depth.
but the problem is the reverie. if the WG knows, and somehow shirahoshi goes up there…
Btw, about the whole Luffy will protect Shirahoshi thing. If the World Government, meaning the Gorousei, find out that Shirahoshi is Poseidon, do you think Jinbe and/or the SH can really protect her? We have seen how afraid the Gorosei are of everything concerning the Ancient Kingdom and the Ancient Weapons. They would immediately send out their strongest fighters, be it the marines with VA and Admirals or be it Cipherpol Agents. Luffy and his crew wouldn´t stand a chance against this power.
