There is something…
Usopp and others got captured...
That makes it four stars among twelve.
So I keep coming back to this thought...
Can Oda have Doflamingo capture all of them and make it work in the story?

king riku and co got captured by fodders? O.o
Riku told everyone not to hurt the citizens, so they probably allowed themselves to be captured.
did u guys figure out too that there’s only half of pika body?
@usopp:

Isn't that the outcome of the cannon attack?
Really great, inspired act of Usopp heroism there. No only is Usopp's sniping ability even more honed (and elaborate) now, he was able to combine Violet and Sanjuro's unique ability for this one-time super-human act of marksmanship.
And that face! I went through the whole chapter expecting it to be another gunpowder star, rock, or similar weapon (à la Spandam), but making it the traumatic face was hardly expected. It also adds a further layer of strategem in how Usopp approached this, presumably having Violet notice that the "jack-in-the-box" face really did traumatize her.
Another thing I found interesting was direct confirmation that Law's ability is finite in terms of physical stamina. We got clued in on that earlier, but here it seems more clear that a weakened Law (this time through lead poisoning) directly leads to a weakening of Law's power, or at least a far more limited use of it. Nice way to reign in Law's seeming godliness, similar to Barto's limitation with his power last chapter.
…where was the indication Usopp has CoO? I just thought was a sign that he's simply that good a sniper.
i thought immediately of flappy bird after seeing doll ussop.
Poor Barto, he just missed the best part of the arc. Or did he ?
About Jinbe's story. This ship's design looks pretty ordinary, it doesn't ring any bell. We probably never saw it before. Gee, I want to know what is going on!!!
Usopp got Haki before everyone else bar the Monster Trio folks. Usopp for god tier.
@Hamburger:

He could see all the three of them through the walls. It's like he could sense them. That is CoO
@Hamburger:

Really? Did you miss all the panels where there was glowing white light, in which he stated, he could see an aura?
that chapter made me happy.
@Light:
Trebol deserves much better!
Of course he does… But so far all members of the DoFla are lacking
It's only fitting that God Ussop learns haki since God Eneru can use haki as well.
nice catch and i can see now how hack tank and king riku were so easily defeated
Yohohoho! At least it explains Hack's defeat.
Does this chapter mean no fight for Kin ?:sad:

well he will get his time to shine during the wanokuni arc

If done right, I can see that being a really cool story twist.
This leads me to believe that Observation Haki will have different ways of implementations. e.g. Ussop will be able to use a type of it for long ranges for accurate attacks.
Also, it looks like again Sugar didn't listen to the old saying: "When you have to shoot… Shoot! Don't talk"
God Ussop is going to be King of the Gods. End series Ussop will snipe Eneru and his moon army to rightfully claim his God title.

My instinct tells me that you aren't completely joking. I'm with you on this one!
It looks like the ship Jinbe witnessed was destroyed by a large 3 clawed scratch. Maybe mama sea cat is going nuts looking for her baby. I'm hoping though it has something to do with Wadatsumi and/or Serumee.
So, thus did Usopp come back from his cringeworthy moment earlier.
Now, can Rebecca?
This is the coolest thing Usopp has done in years, I'm so glad it wasn't just another random plant that he pulled out of his ass, Usopp finally feels like a Sniper again.
Also it looks like DoFlamingo is going to be the first villain in the manga to use sea stone bullets. It's nice to be able to look forward to One Piece chapters again.
@Nex:
I think you're both forgetting Law v Smoker, which showed Law can handle a Logia, and that he can have a good fight.
Smoker vs Law was good because it showed off Smoker post-TS for the first time, showed off the various ways in which Law's power could be used, and made us see Smoker struggle, yet not be completely fodderised. Now Law struggling and then eventually winning is what's desirable, but it's kind of hard to work with him fighting Trebol …
Great chapter, and nice surprise with Usopp's haki
It's been a long time since I laughed this much at one panel, that face is brilliant
About the lead thing, that made me think of something. In hospitals doctors will wear lead-lined vests to avoid harmful radiation from machines like X-Rays. Given the "doctor" theme Law's powers have, maybe lead is his weakness?
So Van Auger had observation haki all along and probably armamant haki as well to make the bullets fly all that great distant.

THAT WAS FUCKING AWESOME!! USSOP BEING THE GODDAMN KING OF SNIPERS.
Now. If only everyone else gets such a kick ass showing.
I don't care about the sea without you indeed.
I pray that Ussop puppet thing will become a meme someday.

Lead is a poison. it's not an issue of weakness or whatever you're calling it.

As at 2 year ago, he does not have CoA and his gun is a sniper rifle.
Lead is a poison or it could somehow be related to how Doflamingo killed Corazon.

That thought crossed my mind too. It wouldn't explain a whole undersea town just vanishing, tough. We'd be seeing scratch marks all around the place.
I guess there are two things going on: mama cat (or some other animal) going gung-ho and wathever made the whole town disappear.
Lead is a poison or it could somehow be related to how Doflamingo killed Corazon.
I had the exact same thought. With Law's ability, he probably can extract the lead in his blood but his astonishment seems to stem from his past (IMO) and probably from Crozon's death. DD's an asshole, so it makes sense.
In case some you guys forgot, Ussop having CoO was foreshadowed in the Reunion arc.
Ussop unlocking Observation Haki is fantastic , the entire scene is just great, Ussop's really been owning Dressrosa imo.
Oda will have to make it up to Sanji somehow.
First Zoro owning on Punk Hazard, now this.
Oda has already done all the setup he needs for Sanji's big moment. We have a whole princess rescue arc to look forward to as the crew rescues okama princess Sanji from Big Mom.
Have we ever had confirmation Observation is seeing auras/people from far away? Not saying it's anything else, but usually people just use it to predict attacks. We've also had people "hear voices" but that could be Conqueror's
I think that was the most satisfying chapter this arc, also. There were funnier moments, all of them involving Usopp, there were "cooler" moments, involving Franky and Sabo, and there were more entertianing moments, usually by Bart, but I've never gone "yep this feels natural, conclusionary and decisive. This is part of the grand arc of one One Piece" until this chapter in this arc. I can only imagine the final, final fighters are just about to start, and we'll get a flashback too.

Sanji fans are gonna be so upset when they find out he really is a transexual now like Iva and Inazuna. :ninja:
The good part is he'll prob be OP as shit in that state.
great chapter
USOPP WITH HAKI
xD
GOD USSOP!!!!! haha that was epic to say the least. That was definitely one of the single most impressive things any SH has ever done.
LOL only half of Pica's statue remains(ib4 only rubble is left XD )

Rayleigh: "The ability to sense the opponent's "presence"' even more strongly….–this is haki with the "Color of Observation!!".....if this ability is increased, enemies in locations invisible to the naked eye can be discerned…..their numbers...and even what they will do in the next moment can all be gleaned... on the sky island, Skypiea...they call this "mantra"."
!
One thing is disappointing… The lack of Bartolomeo
So no more Oda breaks from now on?
Will post detailed opinion tomorrow, coz it's quite late here.
Damn Usopp…....
Truly amazing, God Usopp!!!!
Like I said 2 or 3 weeks ago Law vs Trebol, hax fruit vs hax fruit. Trebol and smoker fruit is completely different, Trebol fruit seems way complicated while Smoker is nothing so Smoker relied on hand to hand fight.
Once again Trebol seems to be the most dangerous among the 3 executives and that's why his job was to protect Doflamingo's most important asset Sugar.

What's weird is, going by the ranks of the suits in cards, I THINK Trebol is actually intended to be the weakest.
Oh, and Ussop developing CoO in the moment like that gives me hope that Zoro will awaken CoC. Though its debateable he's already used it on Monet.
