Anyone propped that the toys may be made by Walpol?
Chapter 709: King Punch

-
Lmfao you guya really should read the threads, this as been brought up the same day we got introduced to cp-aigus0
:O never read it. Still, its him^^
-
I don't know if this was mentioned but does anyone else think that Kyros/Ricky was like Ganfall? like he was the former king of dressrosa before he was kicked out by Doflamingo. A friend of mine also mentioned the possibility that Rebecca may be his daughter or something. Which would explain why they both hate Doflamingo.
-
Coby better not get that fruit.
-
:O never read it. Still, its him^^
No it's not. Did you even look at the pages you mentioned? The man in Mariejoa has a different attire than the CP-0 members. But, he most likely is connected to them and is their leader (a la Spandam).

Coby better not get that fruit.
He won't. Whoever thinks that is a buffoon.
-
I'm telling you guys: The person who gets the Mera Mera no Mi will get it the same way Luffy got his, but at the end of the series, in an epilogue scene, instead of at the beginning of the series in a flashback. A "passing of the generation" symbolism, so to speak.
It will be some kid that looks up to Luffy and/or the Strawhat Crew, and loves hearing about their journeys etc. Similar to kid Luffy listening to Shanks and his crew about their adventures.
-
What's more powerful… Bart's power, or a Dial?
-
If Coby eats the fruit, my respect for Oda will lose 10 percent.
Definitely. This arc seems to be heading in the right direction but a move like this happening could ruin the entire arc for me… There also a few that suggested Barto works for Buggy, another way to make Buggy finally unbearable with his luck and ruin one of the best characters post timeskip all in one move. :ninja:
-

Barts - he can absorb from all directions - a Dial has to be hit to work - and right now I think the Reject dial wouldn't be as powerful compared to people in the New World.

It will probably be Kaido, truth be told. I can't see it being Blackbeard, because Burgess is there already. I think all these more…important people we're meeting this arc work under a Yonko. People like Bartolomeo, Chinjao + Sai + Boo, Blue Gilly, and even Cavendish. (It could also be the mysterious "Jack", however--the guy who was mentioned to be a powerful underworld broker during the Punk Hazard arc).
Someone brought up a good point yesterday, stating that the "Worst Generation" of Supernovas, the generation of Luffy, Kidd, and Law, are trying to oppose the Yonko. Whereas the new generation, the new Supernovas, people like Bartolomeo, Cavendish, and Caribou, are working under the Yonko.
That logic makes a lot of sense to me, but I suppose we just have to wait and see what Oda tosses our way.
-
I actually really like the theory that Bart is working for Buggy.
Maybe this will allow us to learn about "The Pirate Dispatch Society" that Buggy runs now.
Buggy sits back, lives off his love from the Impel Downers and gets them to deal with other pirates like Bart, sending them out on missions to make money.
It would be classic behaviour from the "Thousand Piece Clown".
-
Also. Anyone else here think Baron Tamago of the Big Mom Pirates is going to be a kicker, and Blue Gilly was but a teaser of what a long-leg tribe kicker can do?
-
Whys everybody hatin' on Coby? It doesn't seem likely that he'll get the fruit but I honestly wouldn't have a problem with that at all if it happened.
I hope that Rebecca will be the one to eat the fruit. She's the only one I deem worthy enough. And if that happens then she MUST join the strawhats.–- Update From New Post Merge ---

Seems feasible. I doubt them long-legs are there for nothing.

The new Shichibukai guy will eat Mera no Mi anw.. and become the next Boss Arc.

Sanji's opponent detected.

(First Post)
I see people suggesting that Bartolomeo will use the Mera Mera to barter his way into the SH crew - perhaps he'll barter it for something else? Maybe he wants to be a Shichibukai. I bet the WG would handsomely reward anyone who turned over such a powerful weapon, thus keeping it out of Luffy's hands.
-
I don't see Bartolomeo cooperating with the marines. Doesn't fit with the character.
-
The new Shichibukai guy will eat Mera no Mi anw.. and become the next Boss Arc.
! But he can't, this guy is the one who cut off Zetto's arm and he said to be a devil fruit user.
-

Maybe, maybe not. The shichibukai kind of have a history of insubordination, so I don't think that would necessarily rule it out. I mainly see Barto as a self-serving character up to this point, and manipulating the WG / Marines ala Blackbeard doesn't seem too far-fetched.
-
@GOL-D-:

! That's just a speculation . It's not sure that the one who cut off Z'arm is the new Shichibukai .
-
@Kai:
That's just a speculation . It's not sure that the one who cut off Z'arm is the new Shichibukai .
! What…? It's not speculation, it was confirmed in the movie. The guy who cut off Z's arm and slaughtered his crew joined the Shichibukai during the 2-year timeskip, and it was the final straw for Z--making him leave the World Government, and forming the Neo Navy.
! It's almost, if not, 100% certain that person is the last, unnamed Shichibukai. -
@Kai:
That's just a speculation . It's not sure that the one who cut off Z'arm is the new Shichibukai .
! Right but it's pretty obvious since the one who cuts off Zetto's arm became Shichibukai one year ago and the new Shichibukai wasn't showed. Why would Oda introduce him if he's no more a Shichibukai ?
-

! I'm pretty sure there is. I could have sworn Garp called him a DF user in the movie. In fact…yeah. It was confirmed it was a Devil Fruit user, because that's why he formed a Devil Fruit hunting unit for the World Government.
-
! But there's no confirmation that he's a DF user.
! Yes Zetto said it himself (or maybe was it Garp ?).

Did you even think? Attire is no Argument AT ALL, besides that they look alike! There is NO ARGUMENT AGAINST IT, there are only Arguments for "he might be that person". Hat, which is the same, white clothes, slim and small, scarf and a obscured face.
Think ahead, there are 2 years between that two Pages. He could be degraded or promoted since then. There are more possebilities, but its enough. It don't has to be him, but so far, there is NO argument against it. -

Oh sht.. forget about that.
Goodbye dat crazy awesome idea..
I'm going to bed..
-
People to whom Bartolomeo might give the Mera Mera (if he somehow gets his hands on it)
-Luffy
-Kaido
-Buggy
-Another Yonko (Shanks / BB / Big Mam)
-…someone else? Possibly affiliated with WG / Marines?
-Vegapunk (maybe the Mera Mera would be valuable for his experiments???)Kaido seems most likely out of the people "nominated" so far in the thread. If Barto has any intention of bargaining with Luffy however I doubt it would be to join the SH crew; probably more like a blackmail scenario there. Big Mam hasn't really been at the forefront of this arc, Shanks would be a big curveball, and BB already has a crony participating (unless BB wants to stack the bracket, entirely possible). Can't see how turning it in to Buggy would do much for the story, but hey, Oda works in mysterious ways.
-
If a person like Bartolomeo is connected to Vegapunk, the smartest man in the One Piece universe, I'll piss my pants.
-
@The:

LOL right? Just spitballing people who might post a reward for the Mera Mera. Could be an awesome "Tyrion and Bron" type relationship if it comes to pass (mastermind and mercenary) although it's a real longshot.

Well… To be fair... Vegapunk DOES have a person like Sentomaru with him, and Sentomaru is pretty stupid. Or is Sentomaru no longer in the science division of the World Government?
-
I don't remember if it was clearly stated that he changed divisions entirely when he became a Marine. He does still roll around with Pacifistas though, so he probably does have some contact with Vegapunk.

The more people that follow Buggy, the worse and sillier the storyline gets. I know it's supposed to be funny and it was when idiots were following who weren't particularly strong in the beginning of the series, but all the ID prisoners following him and esp someone who can beat a Vice Admiral (albeit a weak one) without taking an injury followed him as well, it was just a masterstroke of bad writting. There is a case of where Oda can take the running gags to the point where it hurts the story and they become annoying (ie. Sanji asking Nami if she's ok when Zoro and Luffy come back nearly dead after taking a beating from Bellamy, or Usopp being scared of rocks falling at PH when Zoro, Luffy, Smoker, Sanji and Law are right next to him). This for me would be one of them, though I notice Buggy is a favorite here while for me has been progressively starting to become one of the worst characters in the series, when in the beginning he was a pretty fun and interesting character.
Mihawk said in the beginning to Zoro that he should know before unsheathing his sword what the difference is between the two, yet strong characters now all of the sudden are following a weakling like Buggy? Yes, makes perfect sense Oda. :getlost:

foxy i was always disliked that from you, YOU DONT KNO ehat will happen either, stop being so arrogant and confident about stuff you have no idea will turn out true or not. and why couldnt he wear different clothes when heading out on ''mission'', perhaps there as been a time skip as well. And i dont want coby eating the mera mera either, but people have the right to hope for it if they feel like it.
-
Now, will you look at that, a 19 page chapter! Thanks, Oda, really appreciate it.
Pretty good chapter. Some pluses in here:
-
Blue Gilly. Surprised about the pretty great ammount of screen time he got. Also, he knocked down Ricky and Dagama, and was willing to snap the King's neck, in a damn awesome panel, I might add. Love the dynamic feeing in there, good movement flow. Almost there, Gilly. Almost there.
-
The. King’s. Punch. KABOOM.
-
No, seriously. 4 pages of King’s Punch, 2 page spread inclusive. The buildup was definitely NOT wasted here.
-
Bellamy being cheered on by Luffy was pretty sweet, and he seemed to at least figure a comeback against Barto. Which brings me to. . .
++. . .Oda giving almost everyone face. Bellamy lost, but he didn't look like thrash. Dagama got his ass handed to him, but he built enough time. Elizabello lost in the end, but his punch knocked the fuck out of proven strong guys like Blue and Bellamy. Ricky lost easily, but he was given quite some insight.
-
Flashback incoming? One legged soldier being important? Yes, please.
-
Bartolomeo.
On the minus side. . .
-
Not a fan of the cover story's pace. I feel like we could've cut short some good 5-6 chapters. The multiple color spread didn't help in that department.
-
Not seeing the fight between Barto and Bellamy, or Blue vs Ricky. That's where the last 15 page chapters could've expanded with some 2 extra pages per chapter. And I would've loved Oda for it, but well, alas. . .
Overall, very good "warm up" for what's to come, abd Block B gets a B+ rating from me (17 page chapters would've elevate that to an A-, probably). 4 chapter for block B is way way way waaaaaaay beyond my initial expectations, in a very good sense. I'm ready for this arc being as long as it needs to be.
Also, seeing how with very little panel time, Oda gave characters like Hack, Dagama, Blue Gilly or Elizabello some personality and motive beyond a random cool design, I really wonder what Oda will do with the likes of Kelly bros, Hajrudin, Orlumbus or my man Suleiman. Can't freaking wait!

yes i do, I feel like tamago will be beast as fuck, for 1, he seemed a little above pekoms, thats just how it felt for me, just how he interacted with him and stuff, and for 2, his design is just so badass lol, even tho hes dressed in pink, i think he looks rly badass lol, halfboiled rookies lol

I'm with you. He is my favourite character from Fishman Island, even if he got almost no screen time, I can't wait to see him again.

Cavendish is older pirate than Luffy. He entered New world 1 year earlier than the worst generation.
About Coby can you guys at least wait for him to show in the arc before giving him the DF. Seriously its like most of the users already decided that for him to become Admiral he has to get a logia df. Since he trained under Garp i would expect him to do things without DF.
-
I can't believe i'm going to say this but the person that Bartolomeo want's to give the fruit is to Sabo (I'm serious).
If i'm wrong than be it, but i can't take this gut felling inside me. -
@Fleet-Admiral:
Tell me what's SO wrong about that?
honnestly for me its just that i dont like coby as a character, and i dont want him to get aces fruit unless hes strong enough to get it himself, the only way ill end up liking coby is if he bcomes a monster haki user. The worst woild be if luffy gave him the fruit, thatd be awful, just awful
-
And i dont want coby eating the mera mera either, but people have the right to hope for it if they feel like it.
There is no evidence that Coby will eat the flame-flame fruit, in fact he's not even present in this arc and there are no marines capable of getting it.
If the marines did by some chance get it, why the fuck would they give it to a no-name captain like Coby?
So yeah, the theory is pretty fucking stupid lol.

I agree with that, but it shouldn't stop speculation. It's good possibility, so people can talk as much they want about it.

indeed foxy, i also think it would be stupid, but you of anyone else should know the forums rules right? So dont go out insulting people and their thoughts, they have all rights to believe it and share it will us.
-
Slow down people. It's a trap after all. Doflamingo set it up to get to Luffy. I don't think this will go down like 'The winner if the tournament gets the prize, blah blah'
I think there is something coming up. This is either getting interrupted by marine interference or Block C will just gang up on Luffy because Doffy said so.
Won't stop him from winning tho.

I might have phrased it the wrong way. I think it is not a coincidence to have Don in Block C. Though this is only weak speculation but Doffy has this manipulator theme about him. Why would he let the tournament run by itself?

It's not about the arc, it's that this whole gag of Buggy getting bigger and bigger is starting to turn silly/annoying where the joke has run out. I also found the King (forget his name) in DBZ where he was the one who defeated Cell, it turned into every panel with him was irritating and I couldn't wait until he was out of the picture. :\

They are idiots but when Mihawk was talking to Zoro, it wasn't about stupidity, it was about knowing the difference between them. Obviously Zoro wasn't strong enough to be able to tell in such situations. To me the ID idiots is a passable excuse but someone like Bartotroll who seems quite strong and not an idiot following Buggy? I am dreading the idea of it happening. If I were to guess who he meant however which will mean whatever I pick, it won't happen :S.. I'd say Kid as a likely scenario, "Jack", or maybe Revolutionaries.. yeah I can't believe I am thinking about him but it could be possible.

I don't want it to happen, but it certainly can. If Coby is part of the 3 ships, and Luffy asks his crew mates to eat it but no one wants to and Coby is there, it isn't stupid at all in a scenario where he asks Coby for it and he eats it. You should be a bit more lenient on others with ideas, especially when you spent weeks calling people idiots for the Admirals issue, and we know how that turned out.
