Chapter 666: Yeti Cool Brothers

[Fishbot]

@Ukimix:

I dont know if this was already covered, but mangareader and mangastream translation are very different in what Law says to CC about not talking to Joker: In Mangastream's version Law tell CC he is not going to inform to Joker about CC's toys; while in mangareader's version Law asks CC not to tell about him being in PH. Which translation is correct? Can anybody help me with this?

Believe it or not, but Mangareader's version is correct, Mangastream's is wrong. Law says: "Of course, you won't be telling anyone that I'm living here. Not even 'Joker.'"

[Law of the sea]

@Fishbot:

There are different subtypes of Zoan fruits - carnivorous, ancient and mythological. All of which differ from one another.

I don't know if anyone's pointed it out, but 'M' is used in Japanese to call a masochist. It's how Ceaser Clown's lackeys have been calling him (with katakana above the letter 'M' reading 'Master') and it certainly fits his twisted mind.

Wrong, it's normal zoan e.g. animals in our world because giraffe's don't eat meat but ancient (dinosaurs) and mythical (made up creatures) are types

[Fishbot]

@Law:

Where did I say that Kaku's Zoan Devil Fruit is a carnivorous one? I simply pointed out that not only are there normal Zoan types, but also different subtypes.

okay just noticed this! on this page

on the last panel way at the top it shows two speech bubbles, probs sound effects, I was wondering what they said, are they something indicating the yeti cool brothers or is it just wind blowing???

I don't know if I'm reading your post wrong, but the panel you're talking about there's text in those bubbles..saying "kill the rest of them..!!" …"you bet I will". I don't see any speech bubble without text in them..(except the tiny one on the top right of them both standing there in the blizzard)..

EDIT:

OH! I'm an idiot! Nevermind!
I don't know what it says, probably just the sound of the wind blowing.

It's the Yeti Cool Brothers shooting I think.

@CCC:

Working on my script now. The line in question is:
Law: "Of course, don't go telling anyone that I'm here. Certainly not Joker."

[Angelus Dominus]

I'm lost. The Cool Brothers show up and take out three members of Luffy's crew and then just disappear? When/how did they ever get that close to Zoro and the others? And wasn't Luffy with them a chapter ago.

[igetownd]

Things Oda shows us that are obvious:
Moné has wings and talons.
Law can replace body parts with anything, including animal body parts.
Yeti Cool Brothers use hand cannons as long-ranged weapons. And they are big.
Zoro, Sanji, and Brook are unconscious.
Law is ambiguous in loyalty.
Ceasar Clown is a maniac and a sociopath.

Our assumptions:
Moné got Ope Ope limb transplants.
Yeti Cool Brothers shot down Zoro, Sanji, and Brook.
Law betrays Ceasar Clown. Joins Strawhats side.
Oda trolls readers, so our assumptions are worth jack shit.
We are smart readers so we can discern trolling from genuine clues.
Smart readers get trolled the hardest.
Dumb readers, which we are not, don't see the full picture of everything, unlike us smart readers.
We, the smart readers, can predict stories intuitively and logically.
Oda is smarter than us. He also understands how intuition and logic can be fallacious in a capricious adventure story.
We go apeshit when shit hits the fan and we don't know what's gonna happen. Our IQ's drop by 100 points.

[Tensa Fury]

I think the yeti people made a deal with brook,zoro,sanji(Nami) and helping them infiltrate the enemy, hence why the big guy killed Brownbeard. It's a wild guess though…

[Dreamer]

I want to thank you as well CCC!
I always reread the chapter when its out with your translations.

That really doesn't make any sense man. If the Yeti Cool Brothers let Zoro, Sanji, and Brook escape, then why did they attack Luffy, Chopper, and Nami. And why would they still take Franky's body? It just isn't logical. But with Oda, it could still happen XD

[Tomatosoup]

And to add to that, why would they still by lying in the ground, they can be idiots, but not that big of idiots.

[LeviathanX]

Smells like rotten fish… ?! Or as Marcellus once said: "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark."

The three (Zoro and the rest) lying down there unconscious, no traces of a fight nor any visible insures and yet the two Yetis claim to have them killed... If they aren't using any extremly dangerous/poisonous gas then this is a plot... IMHO... They've killed a dragon a few chapters ago, Zorro sliced up a drugged Hody with one slash... ...This now is just more than illogical...

Gas or Kinemon dummies or unknown Yeti powers.
TBH, I'm a little concerned by their seeming teleportation or "really fast movement" or whatever.

[RobinotX]

It is probably Kinemon dummies or Brook has taken their souls out or something like that. Other than that I have no fucking clue xD. Or maybe the Yeti Cool Brothers are 'good'.

[sag d seb]

@RobinotX:

This time around I would love to see Brooke take the stage once again as he has rightfully done post TS. The skeleton dude has sway for music, swords, panties and…. souls.

On a different note it may be that the actual guns are the ones with an ability. To be fair those guns in particular stand out a bit much so having them df enhanced wouldn't take anything away from the awesome duo. Lets see:

Size (check)
Agile(check)
Speedy(check)
long range combatants(check)... honestly with the size of those rifles any range is as good
fur (check)
Bigfoot footprints (check)
Charles Chaplin hat (check)

What is there to hate about this guys?

I thought about that as well, what if he took out their souls to put them in a death like state with no pulse? That would be pretty cool and certainly surprise the heck out of the enemy.

This is probably way off, but if Brook could remove their souls..Couldn't he technically switch everyone back into their original bodies? At least to me, what Law did seems more like he switched their souls, since he removed Smokers heart and then switched him and Tashigi..

Giving brook the power to "control someone's soul" should have to be nerfed or at least cauteouslesly prepared by ODA as an ability that controls souls is somewhat over the top and overpowered. Then again I wouldn't expect less from the musician nakama of the "soon to be" next PK.

I was thinking the same thing actually, but its not like Oda's avoided giving people obscenely broken powers before (Kizaru, Kuma). I think the bigger reason against this idea is that it would be basically identical to Law's move that switched them up in the first place (even though it would be more fitting on Brook than Law anyway).

Also, if Brook could remove the souls of other people, wouldn't he just remove the souls of the Yeti Brothers instead? It seems like it would be more effective.

Well all of those things sound dandy to me, but you can't say there's nothing to hate when we no hardly anything about these bros. We did get a nice big info page from Brownbeard ( http://www.mangahere.com/manga/one_piece/v60/c666/11.html ) containing some of the following:

-They're great killers that get the job done
-They have huge footsteps and low voices
-They're hair giants
-They appear in the blizzards(they fight well in the snow)
-Their names are Scotch and Locke(or Rock)
-They're 25 and hail from a snow country

That is a good chunk of information to get out of just one page, but overall it's not that much. It certainly would be nice to know about who they really are, and how notorious they are in the New World. But so far they seem to be cool characters, and I agree, they have sweet hats.^^

And I'm really curious to see what CC's gonna do with Franky.

Stating a prediction off of a prediction here, but if he was able to remove others souls, then maybe it would be immune to haki, and maybe to Yeti Cool Brothers have haki.

Why in the world would they not fight?
None if this stuff besides Yeti Brothers having some kind of ability makes any sense.
If the Yetis are so good that post-timeskip Zoro has to play dead, then Strawhats are sol on that island.

You actually did pretty good drawing the characters.
The way Oda handled BrownBeard's death was so sad I don't really want him to be dead.

[Kurohige32]

This is a bit of along shot but "what if" brook didn't remove snamji and zoros souls BUT his soul went threw them like peronas hollows and instead of a negative efffect they go into a dead like state hows that

If they were knocked out by a surprise attack with only Brook aware of what was going on I could see him pulling their souls out to fake a quick death. That's why.

They certainly are not dead, but one has to wonder why the Yeti bros think they are dead.

Because they are used to completing their missions without fail? Or are just very confident in themselves and just assume they are dead.

[minor_runes]

@RomanceDawn:

To me that sounds similar to Luffy making others stretch, or the silly theories thrown around earlier about Buggy being on the island because the samurai was in pieces. Devil fruits don't work that way as far as we know.

They certainly are not dead, but one has to wonder why the Yeti bros think they are dead.

The intrigue there is certainly getting high, hopefully we'll find out soon. It's entirely possible they are "dead", just in reversible state due to some kind of chemical or biological weapon Yetis may have used.
They likely weren't shot since they aren't busted up the way Brownbeard was.
I don't have the expectation that they will just get up and dust themselves off, or that these will be fakes, it will probably be more elaborate and involve a handicap to the team (yet again).
But I may very well be wrong.

@YouDNewb:

That's also a pretty good possibility, though it's still unclear what exactly did Yetis do to them.

[RomanceDawn]

Brook has already been shown with the power to manipulate another persons soul through music, so it could be in the realm of possibility that he could literally lift someone elses soul out of their body, it's nothing like Buggy turning someone into pieces. I just thought it was an interesting possibility considering the circumstances.

If the Yeti bros are so good, I can't imagine they left them for dead, or attacked them and just assumed they were dead. Looks like any multitude of gases could be involved or a fruit ability. But I can't see Oda truly killing them and bringing them back to life. The only idea I have is they were surprised by something during their argument, Brook was the only one who was able to fight, but it was too late so he somehow made it appear Sanji and Zoro were dead. Thinking about it now, could have been with his fruit sucking out souls or once again Brook got the jump on the enemy and hypnotized them into thinking they took out Zoro and Sanji while they were unconscious.

[RobinotX]

Brook was the only one shown to have draw his weapon so Brook DID something or Brook is the only one who is real. Anyways it is probably that in this arc Brook will take the stage somehow. As we have 2 sides of the coin.

Or Brook has send the souls of Zoro and Sanji out. Or Kinemon has made dummies of Zoro and Sanji and Brook is playing dead again xD.

[GoustiFruit]

Whatever. Robin is the perfect opponent for Law.

[YouDNewb]

@minor_runes:

Yeah I'm not going to bother myself of thinking of whats happened to them until I see the next chapter, mainly because Brook is the only one with a weapon drawn. So I'm waiting to see if next chapter whether their bodies do get collected by CC's sheep-people or not, then I shall start to speculate

[MiyamotoMusashi]

MangaRule´s scanlation is out: [http://www.batoto.net/read/_/101364/one-piece_ch666_by_mangarule/1

L](http://www.batoto.net/read/_/101364/one-piece_ch666_by_mangarule/1)ooking at this translation my theory that Law came to PH to find the government´s research to help his crew is even more likely. He avoided confrontaton with CC and co. in order to accumulate as much knowledge as possible but it seems like the time has come for Law to act.

[Denbob99]

Thanks for that, CCC's translations really make everything far clearer.

[GJardim]

I read the brazilian translation of this chapter.
They translated Law's conversation with CC clearly, a bit closer to CCC's line translations. I was just hoping they wouldn't confuse me about one of the yeti brothers name, they named him Lock; now I have no idea if it's Locke or Rock.

[Densuke]

About the Scotch and Locke(Rock), it may have been mentioned…Could their stealthy-ness/ apparent teleportation be a form of "Giant Yeti - Soru"..?

[Sonic Youth]

I thought their disappearance was because they used "snow camouflage" just like Wapol.

[Densuke]

@Sonic:

I thought their disappearance was because they used "snow camouflage" just like Wapol.

That's a much better explanation

I just thought it'd be cool if they had mastered Soru.

[Denbob99]

I was thinking it might have been Lock and Stock. Don't know any Japanese or anything, but I thought it might be after "Lock, stock and two smoking barrels", which fits perfectly. One is Lock, one is Stock and they both have big freaking guns so there's your smoking barrels.

[Hallwacker]

@Sonic:

I thought their disappearance was because they used "snow camouflage" just like Wapol.

I think Luffy would be able to sense them if they just hid themselves.

[Denbob99]

Yeah Luffy sensed them when he was a while away. First panel: http://www.batoto.net/read/_/101364/one-piece_ch666_by_mangarule/10

[KageKageKing]

So…they will take Nami to Caesar and after kill the Strawhats or they will try to kill them before taking Nami to Caesar?

[GJardim]

@KageKageKing:

CC can't have people knowing what's happening in PH, so the Yeti Brothers will probably have to kill the SHs. They took Nami because she's on Franky's body and since he got Vegapunk's laser, CC is interested on it. I don't remember which brother, but one of them will stay behind to do the job while the other will bring Nami to CC.

I think it would have had to be "Scotch" that took Nami since he was the one who was in the cavern type deal. Locke(Rock) was outside standing on top where Chopper originally went out to check what was out there.

It's not camouflage, because Luffy would have run right into them on that one panel.

I guess that was a mistranslation from Manga Stream, though. CCC's translation mentions nothing about one of them being left behind to deal with the rest.
