One Piece Chapter 747: Executive Officer Pica

-
There has not been any one as more insane as Doflamingo. Not even Akainu, Blackbeard, or any other badass villain out there. He actually enjoys watching other people suffer and I think there is a special reason for it. It all started back when he was a toddler, his mom was killed by a world noble and his father was a very respected world noble so he didn't go against their will. Soon DD killed his father 2 years later for allowing the death of his mom and this caused him to turn to piracy and leave his world noble title behind. His father probably was a very high tier world noble and that's why DD was given special privileges and knows secrets that only he and his dad knows. That's why the WG has a agreement with DD.
Their family is probably the only one that knows how to operate the weapon which I would get into in just a moment. That's why the world government can't afford to lose DD. The world government would do anything to have DD not progress into this further. Dressrosa use to be governed by the DD family, but that WG worshiper King Riku and previous rulers establish and brainwashed all the civilians to think the WG is the good guys. Dressrosa is one of the 20 kingdoms that were involved in the ancient kingdom in the void century.
And what was so unique about the void century? the weapons! DDs family line were the ones to operate Pluton and it was passed down from generations! That is the secret the WG is so afraid of DD and even made CP0 help DD out. Recall when he threaten them by saying "I can leave and become a pirate again anytime I want". And DD intends to awaken it by using Kaido, after all with such a weapon you can become pirate king and that's his dream. And DD wanting to team up with Crocodile because Crocodile was interested in Pluton as well may be a factor to it. Maybe Crocodile actually knows where all the ponyglyphs are and DD knows how to read them. Locating it and operating it. perfect teamwork. Why couldn't the WG just kill off DD before he finds it? well I think its because DD lied saying he already has it.
What the hell are you talking about man…

Good theory. I would actually want to know why the government decided to have Doflamingo join the Shichibukai? Did they want to stop him from getting to Pluton?
-
As i recall Krieg ruled entirely by fear and was fine with killing anyone of them.
He would kill his second in command for questioning him, and gunned down one of his men for the same.
No, he gunned men that were against his idea of returning to the Grand Line. If he wouldn't take fast actions for when one of them disagreed about it, there certainly would exist a mutiny(given what happened to them last time they went to the Grand Line), his way of showing authority was to kill that person as fast as possible(or at least shooting him. Did they died?).
The second in command disagreed with him a lot of times, but a lot, and in important matters. What happened is that he "fired", forced Gin to abandon his crew, and so he wouldn't be able, by honor, to use the gas mask of his crew.–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Love the ending. However, for some reason I thought that was Fujitora's meteor crashing down because I saw him and buildings collapse. I don't get what Koala is doing? Though I got hyped up for a second when I saw a ship kinda resembling Shanks' ship. Damn it eyes!
Koala is spying trading ships. I bet they are related to Kaido in some way or maybe in even Big Mom. .
Koala was investigating from where the weapons came. Remember? That is the Revolutionaries mission in Dressrossa! What she found was one of the ships of one of the countries that got weapons from Doflamingo. This country(and probably the rest do the same) would disguise has pirates, in case they would be caught, but in reality they made part of a country.

Marines(Garp, Aokiji, Akainu, …)
-
Moria
It didn't really show much of Loyalty(so I would say those are the ones where you could say indifference), but it can be assumed they had it given that Moria people felt comfortable there and they even were free to do the stuff they wanted, while the Marines obeyed frivolous to their orders(Note: Akainu killed a deserter during a war. Till this day almost all countries(including America) that is a crime punishable with death. Being him really harsh, is easy to see why he did kill him. In reality he asked/ordered at least once for the soldier to return to the battle, so it wasn't really a fast call.) -
Kuro
-
Enel
-
Caesar
Are the only ones that I remember where there was no Loyalty. I would say that only Kuro and Caesar treated their group with contempt, Enel was just a Maniac where nobody really mattered.
He said on the same level as the SH, these ones you mentioned can't even be compared to the SH.

You almost won the thread but…..nope
-
I'm still a bit puzzled by Fuji's flow of thoughts. Obviously there's some decent reason behind it, but the handling is terrible, almost on par with the nonsense Luffy vs Jinbe fight at FI.
-
I hope you're just kidding..
Why should he be kidding?
I don't know how people are forgetting the significance of being a Celestial Dragon. The World Government essentially works for them. Harming one gets an admiral and an entire fleet sent after you. They're big deals. If Fujitora goes after Doflamingo without permission from the Fiver Elder Stars, he's done in the marines, and then he would not be able to fulfill his goal to eliminate the Warlords and whatever other plans he has after that.
-

I'd say Arlong and Magellan are easily as loyal as Luffy.

I fully understand the importance of a CD well being. But to revoke his title with immediate effect has he done anything wrong, I'm not entirely sure. it's not as if he is some Vise Admirals, he's 1 out of 3 HIGHEST MARINES MILITARY POWER. They lost their pants when they lost Shichibukai but not for an Admiral? Oh man, i'm not sure.
-
\o/\o/\o/\o/\o/
That's exactly what I was hoping Doffy's relationship with his officers would be (he would have lost his fathers early on and grew up seeing those people as their family, so he actually cares for them as much as Luffy does for the SH), so I instantly loved this chapter just for that.
-
On 1 page fujoke was talking, the other page he was in fight with zoro already. so an Admiral's fight is so insignificant now we have to have it offscreened? facepalm.
I'm the first one that HATES the off-panneling spree that Oda is so deadset on right now, but I'm quite sure that isn't even a fight. Fuji is not even trying. If he were, Luffy, Law and Zoro would be face-down-stumped in the floor with sheer gravity strength. He's just nonchalantly parrying some attack by Zoro.
As has been said before, I don't think Fuji is really into hunting Luffy at all.
False!
- Higuma
What? Higuma deeply cared about his crew? When did we see that?
- Smoker
Not a villain?
- Fake Poster Sanji(I don't remember his name)
During his time as a "villain", we didn't see that much about his crew interactions to say he deeply cares about them. Only when he became "handsome Duval" he seemed pretty close with his crew.
- Alvida
- Don Krieg
Were harsh but Loyal, basically to show authority
Both were extremely harsh and ruled their crews entirely through fear. Krieg did this to the point of retardation by trying to kill his (BY FAR) strongest underling just because evulz.
- Crocodile
- Hody
Like Doflamingo only cared for the big shots of their organizations the others were treated as disposables
Crocodile planned a B plan that basically meant killing ALL his underlings. He was happy with Robin, but tried to kill her cause "lonely wolf" and stuff. He only seems to respect Mr. 1, and we saw that only during Impel Down, not before.
Hody tried to KILL everyone on FI with Noah. Including his underlings. They were fanatic zealots too so they understood it, but as it stands, he didn't care one little bit about his underlings.
The only crew we saw were the leader cared for his crewmates was the Arlong Pirates. And while Perona, Hogbak and Absalom seemed to deeply care about Moriah, I don't think he cared about them that much, or at least, he never vocally stated so.
I'm proud of being able to say the same thing. Chapters like this one remind me why I once blindly loved this manga. And I'm just basing this on the blue one's summary and skimming through the chapter till a proper version gets out.
There's a gag that should only be funny with sound, yet I had to stop reading and laugh my ass off on the spot. If you happen to read a good version of the chapter anytime soon (though it seems cnet's translations are in a hiatus right now, so no Powermanga for a while. . .), you'll see.
To me, it's the best One Piece gag since the time skip started.
Because he still honor his stupid agreement with DD even though he kills civilans.
Someone on this thread already said that it's weird we all seem to know Fujitora so well as to judge when he's acting out of character or not, when, in fact, it's quite the opposite, as he seems to be a very difficult to read character. I don't know how Oda intends to proceed with him, but he's purposedly vague as of now.
So, I think it's jumping to conclusions a bit to think that Fuji is not going after Dofla because of an agreement with a criminal, sadistic, blood thirsty tyrant.
I think the idea that Fujitora seems to prefer forcing the population to stand against Dofla on their own, led by their own fury and blood lust, is pointing on the right direction, but we don't really know that.
Last week, we saw citizens being partial to King Riku, fully knowing that they've been played with by Dofla for the past 10 years, they hated his guts. . .and yet they decided that the best course of action was hunting Luffy and co. and end this game. They still felt that the fear of Doflamingo overcame their rage at him. It seems Fuji wants to let that hate sink in a bit longer till it blows out of proportion and they all blindingly charge at Dofla. Then, I guess, he'll help them?? I don't know, but it might be a possibility.
And, btw, I think this is not good. It seems like a kind of violent, eye-for-an-eye mindset. But that might just be what Oda's striking for. Though that'd make Fuji dangerously close to the Revolutionary mentality, and that maybe is not something he has on his mind if he filled in to be a Marine Admiral, but he doesn't seem to like the World Government, but. . . .but. . . .
Bottom line: we still don't have a complete, honest view on Fujitora as a character yet to jump to conclusions and call him "joketora" or "the stupidest marine ever" or state that he's "acting out of character".
-
-
As has been said before, I don't think Fuji is really into hunting Luffy at all.
If he's not going to do anything to SH/Law, he might as well make good use of himself and help innocent people elsewhere. I'm not sure about this old fool.
-
Really liked this chapter. I don't know what I'd do without One Piece, I feel like I'm losing brain cells each time I'm reading Naruto and especially Bleach.
But anyway, I'm assuming the fights will begin soon. Probably a group fight against Pica like with Oars. I just want a Robin fight, it's definitely been too long since she had a proper one. I highly doubt Zoro can take Issho though. -
Honestly, this chapter was pretty good. While I still despise Doflamingo, I do like the fact that he does care for his "family". BTW, I didn't even think that those mushi's can be used as little cameras. That's pretty new to me! O_o
As for Fuji, I gotta say that I'm a little disappointed in him. -_-
Also, it's good to know that I'm not the only one here who is getting really annoyed by Oda's off-paneling spree throughout the last few chapters (including this one).
-
Both were extremely harsh and ruled their crews entirely through fear. Krieg did this to the point of retardation by trying to kill his (BY FAR) strongest underling just because evulz.
not to go out of my way to defend Don Krieg, but he didn't really kill Gin out of evil intent, it was more of a "demanding utter obedience" thing he had going on, like you do what the fuck he says and if not poison gas to the face
not even arguing your point, Krieg definitively ruled by using fear, but his reasons for poisoning gin are a little more nuanced than that, not by much though
I always wondered about these guys, if they'll ever be seen again. I get shafting characters like Kuro because he won't try anything anymore with being retired and all, but it's weird to me Oda not use a character who was still adamant about being pirate king even after he lost. Considering how Oda goes out of his way to reintroduce old characters and give them a new purpose in the story, it's odd he wouldn't do the same thing with Krieg. -

OK let me rephrase that: Fujitora is the stupidest marine according to what we know now. And he totaly stepped out of char, for what we saw until now.
It's true what you say, we haven't seen enough, but it dosen't mean he is not acting stupid, maybe he have an ultirior motive we will just have to sit tight and wait. -
I really liked this one.
Koala sneaking around was cool.
I love the fact that Donflamingo really does care for his crew and that Baby 5 blasted the hell out of that fodder for the same reason. The hint of his backstory.. I'm not sure about that, but I guess it depends on how it will be done.
I think Bastille made a possible reason clear why Fujitora just simply won't attack Dofla. He does have a massive influence.
The gags were funny, too. I love how the Zoro kick was so casual, lol. Though it's not heard, the Pica joke made me smile, too. Especially that Luffy ended up laughing.
Finally, that huge golem looks damn cool. -

I didn't count any of the Marines except for CP9, who at first aren't shown to have that much respect for each other.
It isn't just a matter of loyalty, it's the Captain being nakama with the crew just as luffy does.
Foxy's crew are there because they lost a bet. Crocodile regarded everyone as a tool.
Arlong and Hody, Moriah and Buggy never show that loyalty, they seem likely to disown a crewmate if they're in the wrong mood.
Krieg, Eneru & Kuro actively slaughter their own men.Dofla is the first Captain to express sorrow at a teammate's sacrifice and go out of his way to save one.
And interestingly many of those crews are shown far closer with each other only after they were veaten by the Straw Hats.

I think Fuji is playing the long game
He has a point, in that apprehending a rogue shichibukai will be pointless (as another will take his place). It would also compromise his position.
He's better off letting Doflamingo commit his atrocities and letting the world see the "value" of the shichibukai
-
I've read a few posts in the spoiler thread comparing Wadatsumi and Pica concerning high-pitched voices. Aside from the fact that Wadatsumi was clearly presented as childlike both in personality and appearance and not as a hulking, muscular badass like Pica, I haven't the foggiest idea as to why these two were even considered similar in the first place.
-
I hope you're just kidding..
Nope
Earlier, Law confronted Doflamingo about having powers exceeding his standing of a Suchibukai right in front of Fujitora.Whilst his motives have not been fully clarified (is it a personal vendetta against the Shichibukai due to something in his past or really inspired by the pirate-related incident he mentions?) , it can be argued that Fuji's shock declaration pretty much confirms that he has recognised the, again unspecified, connection between Doffy and the higher powers of the World Government, witnessing how he's abused it.
To clarify the second part in your quote, I was saying that if Fujitora, an Admiral, attacked a Shichibukai, an organisation that is affiliated with the World Government rather than the Marines, the World Government would have the power to strip him of his rank.
It's unrelated, but I'm intrigued as to where Fujitora originated from as it could potentially explain his actions handling the current situation. He's expressed confusion as to the way the Marines handle themselves, so that implies coming from a nation outside the Marines' control and the nature of World Conscription (which hasn't been explained yet) means that he's most probably a wanderer. So Wano perhaps? If true, that could explain his differing views on justice, the fact he walks around in geta, his design being based on Zaitoichi and his sword, which if, as some have theorised, has the gravity power, means that it is similar to Kinemon's sword. But a counterargument to this is, if Fuji does come from Wano, shouldn't Kinemon have recognised him?
Oh well, guess we'll just have to be patient

At the cost of innocent's life? That is Akainu's domain.
That is why it seems weird to us that Fuji is acting uncharateristics, it dosen't add up with what he said befor. -
Wait? What will happen to Mihawk if the Shichikubai system is abolished? What the heck is he anyways? On the wiki it says he is pirate??? Makes no sense. I don't see any sign of that on his ship. Also, Fuji's decisions are actually confusing. He lets doffy go and goes after Law. After that he goes after straw-hats and NOW he goes for doffy. Is he waiting for doffy to do his worst? It seems like it to me.

Well than according to what you just said:
An admiral, a second in command of the entire marines organization don't have the power to strip a shichibukai of his power.
That makes the admirals into a joke, a freaking joke.
Admirals should be able to make desicions like that and not be afraid of the WG. -

lots of stuff happening.
What I liked was that meeting between Doflamingo and his officers. He really considers them his family, kinda twisted considering he…murdered??? his father and nearly destroyed Riku's family. But....I dunno, it had its off-beat charm. Good god, Pica is awesome. Big imposing giant dude that will wreck your shit but has a super high voice, can't wait for the anime bit
Luffy/Zoro/Law nearly get into trouble when Luffy lands them near Senor Pink, Machivise, and Dellinger, but they manage to get away. Pfft, Zoro's kick. Not pleased that Machivise's fruit is too similar to Valentine's, but whatcha gonna do.
Meanwhile.....Fujitora. Part of his dialogue was kinda hard to "get"?, but it seems he's still targeting Luffy and Law first. I know, arresting Doflamingo has its share of tricky politics, but the whole darn country knows what he did + the Maynard and Bastille scene.....seems people are still annoyed, which is understandable. But I still think Fujitora has some kind of secret plan that we're just not seeing right now. I dunno, I still want to get him the benefit of the doubt. He seemed confused on how the Marines are choosing to run things.
Giant Colossus Pica = holy shit terrifying. Giant Colossus Pica with Mickey Mouse voice = freaking hiliarous. Glad Luffy agrees.
-
But there is a reason why Sakazuki seems to have a friendly relation to Fujitora. Because if not, like what Kouch lee mentioned, Fujitora is borderlining Revolutionary's ideals.

this is what i've been trying to say for the past two weeks, and brought up again a few pages back..
really glad to know i'm not the only one who see's it this way.. -
Some significant things in my opinion
Right after the scene where Doffy destroys the keys to the sea stone reinforced smile factory, Oda brings us Franky's scene and he heading towards the factory and referring to using his beam. Remember the beam that CC mentioned was so powerful only the likes of Dr. Vegapunk could have made it. I say this bcos the first person that came to mind after I saw the keys destroyed was think of franky as the most capable person to break into the factory ; he has been saying the whole time that he wants to do that any way. And more importantly he doesn't have a weakness for sea stone . -
@The:
But there is a reason why Sakazuki seems to have a friendly relation to Fujitora. Because if not, like what Kouch lee mentioned, Fujitora is borderlining Revolutionary's ideals.
I actually think that there is something different at play here. One needs to ask… whatever Sakazuki actually values the Goverment. Does he value Gorosei and World Nobles, and all that crap, or is he simply focused on justice?
Or does he simply value the idea behind it, and not the corruption presented.
-
Is it ever stated when the schischibukai are started, maybe it was an idea of doflamingo to start with. That way he can still be a pirate, have immunity and the secret of him being a celestial dragon doesn't have to be said.
If Fujitora knows this, he can try to overturn the whole system by exposing the founder. But first he needs more evidence or so. -
Admirals should be able to make desicions like that and not be afraid of the WG.
um, no? because if he fucks up the WG can just flat out fire him and he can't do shit anymore? The only option is to do as you're told or get the fuck out, like Ao Kiji
Fuji wants to revoke the shichibukai, he can't do that if he gets fired, it's straightforward and simple
being a admiral does not mean that you can do whatever you want -
Well than according to what you just said:

That makes the admirals into a joke, a freaking joke.
Admirals should be able to make desicions like that and not be afraid of the WG.Sengoku's order to release info on the escaped Level 6 prisoners was overridden by the World Government. Considering Sengoku was a Fleet Admiral at that point, the highest position in the Marines that we know of, this just shows how supremely powerful WG are.

Doflamingo killed his father, oh my. I hope we get a little flashback of his past…

I loved that doublespread of the Donquixote family. Sent shivers down my spine.
As for Fuji's words- I can see where he's coming from. He wants the citizens of Dressrosa to realize the evil that DD is instead of simply saving them. But it still irks me a little that he's not doing more to actually protect the citizens' lives. Yeah, Fuji's a cool guy and his approach to solving this issue is nice and all, but he shouldn't solely rely on the people realizing it themselves while most of them are getting killed in the process. Give 'em a little push but prevent them from falling off the cliff.

i looked at aohige's summary and the MP translation seems accurate..but still i didn't understand what the hell fuji is talking about ò_ò
cries not for sadness but anger,the WG is not god?what? -
There's a gag that should only be funny with sound, yet I had to stop reading and laugh my ass off on the spot. If you happen to read a good version of the chapter anytime soon (though it seems cnet's translations are in a hiatus right now, so no Powermanga for a while. . .), you'll see.
Now that explains a lot. Seems like I have to use Slangstream since I can't access Alpha. Ugh…

um, no? because if he fucks up the WG can just flat out fire him and he can't do shit anymore? The only option is to do as you're told or get the fuck out, like Ao Kiji
Fuji wants to revoke the shichibukai, he can't do that if he gets fired, it's straightforward and simple
being a admiral does not mean that you can do whatever you wantBut it's clearly not whatever he want. Let's assume that Fujitora striping Law of his title was an order from the WG (and I dont think it was), Doflamingo is fucking up an entire country + he enslaved marines and WG officials, it is obviuously in the WG best interest to arrest DD and strip him. Not to mention what happens when they find out about SAD, Joker and the weapon trades.

Or, that they control the newspaper exacly like with Dofla

Agreed. Favorite part of the chapter. Would've been perfect if the family's complete.
I also really liked that panel where Dofla and the three executives were angered upon hearing a goon laugh at Pica's voice. I thought it reinforced more the idea of a "family".

I'm not going to get drawn into an annoying and tedious argument with you and I don't care how people judge fuji's actions and options, the only thing that I had to comment on was the "admirals shouldn't be afraid of the WG" (your words) because of how utter horseshit that statement is

Seriously, I can't stop smirking and giggling over the thought of Pica having a Chipmunk voice
