…..This point is so random and stupid yet legit that I'm actually starting to believe for 5% that Luffy might eat it.....
P.S: knowing that this is Arlong Park i probably have to state that I am being sarcastic. just saying before i get serious replies.
One Piece 700 : His Pace
-
-
…...Damn, this thread's over 100 pages already?
-
I'm really eager to see Buggy's pirate fleet… I think he's gonna command at least dozens of warships and be rich as @£¢$...
How do you think he's gonna be reintroduced...
-
Maybe it was Absalom who dropped the note for Chopper at PH?
-
@Buggy:
Maybe it was Absalom who dropped the note for Chopper at PH?
Absalom was at Kids hideout during the Puck Hazard events. The only conclusion we have is Law threw it.
-
any one have any thoughts on "His pace",Is it related to CoC ,or just something brand new.
His pace could probably just be his own natural charisma and ability to talk to people, it doesn't necessarily need to be Haki or fruit related. (or it could be :ninja:)
-
It's probably just a reference to fate. You know how BB and his crew talk about it all the time? "It must be fate". In Greek mythology there were three so called "fates", the Moirai.
Wow, at least give me credit if you're going to take my theory.
-
@Foxy:
Wow, at least give me credit if you're going to take my theory.
I heard it somewhere and didn't bother to look up where. It's probably a common theory anyway. Sorry if I "stole it".
-
In the end it rarely is anyone's original idea. And anyway nitpicking about it is only one way to deal with it.
By the way I like the fire fruit more than I liked the yami one. You should keep that one.

@Tom:

Yeah, I probably will.

I understand your point but I could see the tournament idea fitting in pretty seamlessly, with DD making some kind of announcement that he has the Mera Mera no mi or some prize or person that the Strawhats might want and then either multiple Strawhats or just Luffy enters to win it or take it back. And since it would be happening so quickly and the WG already has its hands semi tied sending Fujitoru to Greenbit it would be difficult for them to respond fast enough to do anything about it
While that sounds slightly plausible I think certain major factors still prevent an orchestrated event such as that from happening. As I've already mentioned it's imperative that most pirates stay under the radar of the WG and the Marines as much as they can. Travelling to a pre-announced location which is sure to consist of many other pirate crews, all who are likely infamous and with note worthy bounties isn't the smartest idea for a number of reasons. The gathering of so many pirates always carries with it the gathering of a large navy force - such as what we witnessed in Sabaody, and that was only the gathering of the top rookies of one generation. Furthermore, there will surely be pirates who won't even be interested in playing by the rules and see it merely as an opportunity to take the prize, or seize their own interests by force. I also don't believe DD is in any position to organise such an event as with all tournament events there needs to be a considerable amount of security, if DD cannot keep the participants (who are all unruly pirates) in check then it may as well be an organised bar brawl.
The constant contest over control in the NW between the smaller pirate crews, rising stars and dominant Yonkou is a tournament in itself, something far more unpredictable and exciting than a generic tournament.
-
Yeah, I probably will.
Sorry for off-topic, but this kind of amused me. Didn't someone earlier in the thread say that they liked the yami one better, and suggest you switch back, and you responded you probably would?
I mean you're free to do whatever and change your mind as you wish, obviously, not trying to get on you or anything, just found it kind of amusing assuming i'm not remembering wrong, haha.

Yeah. I guess I just kinda got used to it. Maybe I'll switch them around sometimes or make a new one. Dunno. It's definitely going to be a devil fruit, though.

Completely out of topic but I reading the earlier One Piece chapters I noticed that alvida "hates dirty things" and then she got a devil fruit that allows said dirt to slip off keep her smooth and clean coincidence? or a hint that a fruit also has something to do with your personality, ace having the mera mera nad him being hot tempered?
-
Finally excited to see real battles where we can see all the moves the crew has learnt…

I can totally seing the validity in such a theory:
Aokiji: Chill like Ice
Kizaru: Light Headed
Brook: Soul… brother's got souuuuuuul
Enel: Threatening and dangerous -
@zeff:
law is planning on fujitora and doffy fighting each other on greenbit while he destroys the factory
http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/67039_415518418540337_81405621_n.jpgYes!!! Of course! Law telling Smoker about Green Bit makes sense now. That's brilliant, the perfect distraction.

guess the fruit chooses you…most of the devil fruit users have fruits suiting their personality...cp9 too had powers like that...just imagine kaku and kalifa swapping their fruits

And I also noticed that Coby has yet to capture Alvida, I wonder if Oda remembers Coby ever said that.

This isn't Yu-Gi-Oh… or Gundam Wing....
I am not claiming it to be..but sometimes you see cheesy comments like the wand chooses the wizard or the sword chooses its master"..etc etc…but I think it just a coincidence that everyone has fruit they like...kaku being an exception.... Or sometimes after getting the fruit they get that personality... Considering this baroque works had a decent display of fruit users...powers not specific to the personality...everyone was a dick but had interesting powers and they used it to suit their fighting style...

Hahahahha Has Arlong Park tainted you so bad that you think everyone is being sarcastic? LOL No worries man, you can tell when I'm being sarcastic or not LOL

In a way.
He's a coward to himself, but, when in front of others, puts on a brave, cocky "face".
-

LOL good one! I wonder if it's true…
-
Hey guys, don't want spoil the fun but it's Oda who chooses the fruit and he is the one who comes up with their personalities.
So I don't think it's an coincidence, Alvida get's the slip slip fruit or that chill aokiji has the ice fruit.

I would say that's a coincidence since there are numerous devil fruit's and it would be really hard to match each one with an effect for someone's personality.What i want to say is what impact would have luffy's fruit on his actions? Or buggy's? Plus I remember Ace being hot tempered from the flashback chapters
Wooo after 3 years of being a guest in the AP forums i decided to join this great discussion! (((((:

This theory sounds like a bit of a stretch.

Yes!! !!

@Стрелок:

16 chars of Agreed.

It's possible they upped his bounty to increase his influence and thus his use as a puppet. What the WG doesn't realize is that Buggy will have his way even without engaging the WG anyway. Although they can control his influence so far they can't control his luck. :)
But I don't really like Buggy.Y U No like Buggy?

Yeah, I think it depends what frame of reference you're coming from. At the meta-level, it's obviously intentional when Oda gives a character a matching personality and power. In story, though, I very much doubt it's anything with any sort of deeper meaning.

@Стрелок:

Yeah. Like, Luffy's fruit being linked to his personality? I don't see it all really, seems like a stretch to me.

Thats how I would have replied to Elfman with the addition that in story it kind of seems odd but its true perhaps it was a conscious choice by Oda that also wouldn't impact the story in any way.

hehe picking up sarcasm on the internet is kind of difficult, since not everyone uses the ninja smilie as a visual cue.

…are you guys seriously taking a character's devil fruit, and see how it reflects their personality?
............
what.
Of course they would reflect their personalities. They were written and made for and with the abilities they are given.

I don't understand this post. It seems that, at first, you have an issue with the discussion, but then at the end you state that it's obvious that such a correlation exist.
So, you don't like people matching up things ? I don't get it…
-
Luffy is also hot blooded/hot tempered as well. Hmmmm

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh you're looking in to things too much. >_>
That is both my answer to you, and my reaction to you.
I am saying is why on earth are people over-thinking something that's not to be over-thought. As a writer, you build your characters to work with the "stuff" they are given. just like real life. You do and react to things according to your personality.
Their are some things that need to be taken in face value.
-
You say jimbei should eat the fire-fire fruit, I don't think it's a good idea, since one of his major uses in the crew will be hie swimming abilities…
At least it's my opinion...

Nah it's not over thinking anything. It's about having fun matching things up. Sorry you're not having fun.

C'mon man, it's obvious that I'm joking. Why would any sane person want a fishmen who uses water attacks to have fire?

Well, you never know up here…
Anyways I do think if Jimbei joins Luffy's special seat is gonna be somewhat safer...
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
@The:

I still think it makes more sense (even if it doesn't make any) to have Jimbei eat the fire fruit than Luffy…

Jinbe can create fires and extinguish them at the same time

Holy crap, in the Morgan arc when the marines are talking about whether or not Coby should join one of them says that coby shouldn't be trusted because,"there have been events where pirates have joined the marines to be spies". Foreshadowing?
-
I think Fujitora is gonna be Grape-Grape logia…
Powers: - Changing into grapes for melee (throwing himself as small spheres)
- Liquid (juice) form to drown people
- Wine powers to weaken people's intellect
- Entangling people with vines
- Etc.
Now this is sarcasm...

Sanji eats the Flame-Flame Fruit, then the crew gets Jinbei. Jinbei takes over as the best swimmer of the Strawhat Crew.
