im officially bartolomeo fan now long live bartolo
Chapter 773: Half and Half
-
-
Every chapter since executives began falling has been gradually gettingg more exciting . Ideo and some some the coloseum loners could join Bart's crew, them, cavendish, happo, yonka maria is the start of the taking this sea by the strawhats crew unintentionally.
-
My prediction: Robin creates a leg for Kyros so he can have more balance and speed. Kyros will defeat Diamante XD
-
Please Oda, let Robin fight.
-
Wait, Robin might actually do something in a real battleā¦?
I liked the chapter, but have to wonder how "poisonous needle hair" comes with Gladius' ability.
I think when you get slowly poisoned by something poison gets also in your hair.
I mean that if for example somebody died and somebody else was suspected of poisoning chair strands get checked for poison. Maybe Gladius ate some poisonous food to make his hair poisonous.
Bartolomeo even compared him to Porcupine lol
Thats one good question for SBS about how Gladius hair are poisonous. I can already say that it will be in one of future SBS.
Oh oh oh and Darth complaining on Rebecca being protected by somebody instead of showing off like she is character she is not incomming in 3.. 2.. 1..
-
I forgot Robin could be this awesome. I just love her character, she never fights if that's not 100% needed. Awesome.
Also 99% Robin has CoO, well that was expected I guess.I can't wait to see Franky.
-
Propably just cool entrance with the death flag. It does confirm one thing thou, Robin doesn't need solid objects to sprout on anymore!!!!
so basically her fruit has no rule or limit anymoreā¦even though it was already clear when she created a clone able to RUN
-
Prediction : Diamante mercilessly slaughters everyone since he's the mafackin Hero of the Colosseum.
-
He said that he could use Hakuba's speed.. :)
BTW i guess Robin (whose power is growing limbs from anywhere) will team up with Kyros to defeat Diamanteā¦
She just grows him a leg and voila, we have a fully capable Kyros again.
Oh we had the same vision? Great!
-
Prediction: Cavendish has one of the cursed sword, this sword has a evil spirit( Hakuba) that can take over the user's body when he's not careful.
I think that also explains zoro's Asuram because of his cursed sword.
-
Blackbeard has ten titans plus what will come after. So am wondering if the strawhats will get a distinctive title, the allies gained on dressorosa or both?
-
Loved the chapter overall. Bartolomeo actually using a barrier to protect others and allow himself to take everything was a nice things when he's been hiding behind them all the time. The Hakuba and Cabbage thing was cool, especially Robin stopping Hakuba and not sweating was awesome. Liked how Gladius was taken down and shows how smart he can be. Looks like the Cabbage V Trebol or the Robin v Trebol could happen.
That said, come on Oda. You are killing me here with the whole Rebecca thing. I was okay overall with the stuff going on, but now throwing Robin into the mix is really irritating me. Rebecca is shown to be a decent fighter, and this whole arc has been leading up to her doing something. Now everyone wants to protect her, and she just keeps standing there. I know she has to get through it, I know you have to set things up, but this is enough. Please, for the love of God, have her do something besides stand there scared. You have the opportunity for two female characters to do something significant, both who have had build-up to do something this arc, now do it.
Ahem* Great chapter overall except for that last panel, but it did look really cool.
-
Chicken head ftw
Great way to start the year its just getting more and more interesting
-
so basically her fruit has no rule or limit anymoreā¦even though it was already clear when she created a clone able to RUN
Robin can't sprout limbs on a place she can't see. So there still is a limit.
Also, Barto's barriers seem to be indestructible, but he can only deploy one, and with limited surface amount.To those who say that the executives are going down in one chapter, please be reminded that Gladius has been there since 757, and the fight lasted for long enough, even though we didn't see it progressing.
Cavenkuba/Hakevendish is a very interesting ummā¦ creature. I love it.This chapter is great!
-

Or maybe his hair gel really is toxic crap produced with loads of industrial waste by some careless profit-whore
As for Rebeccaā¦ Robin's protection is a nice touch, but at the same time it really adds insult to injury. Was there ever a point to hyping her as a capable gladiator?
-
God..in OP world explosions, poisons and high voltage electricity doesnĀ“t seem to kill anyone lol. Barto was so close to Gladius without possibility to dodge it. ItĀ“s a world where swords are more efficent than pistols.
well to be fair, these pistols are flintlocks, and its one area Oda seems to be almost realistic in. Flintlocks were not efficient, the rounded shape of the projectiles do not pierce as well as the bullet shape of modern times. The flintlock also didn't have rifling inside the barrel to help spin the projectile which helps it in momentum and accuracy. Also get the gun wet, its useless.
So yeah, in the early days, a sword was more reliable than a flintlock.Where Oda forgoes reality with his flintlocks is they are more precise (Yasopp's aim at a fly be able to hit the fly), rapid fire (cans hoot more then one at a time) and quick reload.
-
robin should supply kyros with a second leg so he can fight properly
-

Robin can't sprout limbs on a place she can't see. So there still is a limit.

back in skypiea she opened an eye (eyes?)on luffy's stretched arm that she was not able to see due to the clouds -

Ah the chapter proBably shoots that down if the first dish words are to be taken seriously, the whole i did not give you permission to come out.
-
Wadatsumi pretty much explains the cover story so far, doesn't quite explain why the sea-beasts are rampaging. Seems rather amiable in all.
i don't know maybe it's because the offering taken by wadatsumi were supposed to be taken by the sea kings
-
actually,she can
back in skypiea she opened an eye (eyes?)on luffy's stretched arm that she was not able to see due to the cloudsDidn't she sprout a whole bunch of eyes down Luffy's stretched hand, creating a chain of visions so that she would in the end be able to see his palm?
-
Bartholomeo is joining. No question
-

Actually wouldn't mind finally seeing some of that famous "genius".
-
@Lao:

no,luffy stretched his arm first,founding nothing because he couldn't see,then robin opened the eyes oin his arm to being able to see where usopp was,and then created the arms to reach him when he was located
of course she had a general direction of where luffy's arm was by looking at luffy,but she wasn't able to actually see the arm
-
i don't know maybe it's because the offering taken by wadatsumi were supposed to be taken by the sea kings
Or those sea kings were angry inhabitants of the underwater city who mistakingly believed the disappearance of their homes was the doing of humans
-
Was just gonna post this in Pun Piece, but why not :P
Supposedly, Cavendish is a demon in bed.
As for Robin, she's been getting pretty hand-y. Maybe she'll even give Kyros a leg up.
Gladius didn't want to burst Bart's bubble, but he just couldn't keeps his own balls from bursting for Robin. -
Bartholomeo is joining. No question
Joining the Strawhat alliance like the Heart pirates, Happo Navo etc. sure, but never as a member of the crew.
-
no,luffy stretched his arm first,founding nothing because he couldn't see,then robin opened the eyes oin his arm to being able to see where usopp was,and then created the arms to reach him when he was located
**of course she has a general direction of where luffy's arm was by looking at luffy,**but she wasn't able to actually see the arm
I'm pretty sure that was enough for herā¦ But I'm not so sure anymore.She stated "As long as I can see it" like a volume ago before Usopp fell down, so I doubt Oda forgot about it that early.
-
Robin doing something. YES!! Though i want to see her fight . I'll take what I can get.
I love Cavendish and Hakuba.And Bartolomeo.
Why does everyone want to protect Rebecca!? Sabo, Bart, Kyros and RobinAt this point, it's just hilarious. -
He will join the crew lol
-
Wasn't it on flower petals?
-
Kinda disappointed with Bartolomeo's strength as a supernova. I was expecting any supernova (or super rookie, whatever you want to call it) to be able to finish an officer with ease. Hakuba taking Dellinger down with one slice was more what I expected of their level.
I wonder if Oda wants Bartolomeo to not be THAT strong for some reasonā¦ :ninja:
-
Bari Bari noooooooooooo!!!!! PISTOLEEEEEEET !!!!!! #1 of 2015 ā¦ Epicly done..
Cavendish/Hakuba are gettin' more and more famous... I love the HALF/HALF DISH!
In the HALF&HALF MODE, Hakubendish looks the same as Gill Malekhite, "Malekhite the accursed" (EVIL FACE + HAIRS)

Both are interesting and possible. @Sabinis, I wouldn't be too surprised, after all Jango had a mushroom grow on his chin, he ate the cap but the stalk was left behind all this time. So ā¦.
My idea is that he purposely made his hair poisonous. He knew he can shoot out strands of hair, so maybe he made his hair poisonous to make it more effective, so its close to Seafarer's idea.
@mario:

As pointed out, Kyros would not be able to control the limb, Robin controls what she sprouts, it would lack co-ordination the way a three-legged race lacks co-ordination= from two minds attempting to move as one.
Also its a blow to Kyros, implying she thought that he can't function on his own. That doesn't fit Robin's personality.
-
I hope when all kind of different faction 'join' the strawahts, each faction is appointed to a strawhat. Like
Robin -> Barto Club
Zoro -> Hapo Navy
etc.
It doesn't need to be explicitly stated, but would grow naturally and would be obvious for the reader. -
@Lao:
I'm pretty sure that was enough for herā¦ But I'm not so sure anymore.She stated "As long as I can see it" like a volume ago before Usopp fell down, so I doubt Oda forgot about it that early.
since oda forgot the main limit of his fruit (being the hana-hana his limb have to "sprout" from something and have "roots"),it's entirely possible he forgot that he already drew a scene where robin was not able to see
of course all that can be re-adjusted in "she needs to have a general understanding of the position of the target",that would still kinda make sense in a manga were some adjustments must be made for some power to work..what doesn't make sense is that the characteristic that defined the very name of his fruit isn't there anymore.
now it's just the clone-clone fruitbut as I said,it was already clear when she created a clone able to run,and therefore with no roots to the ground.
what I wonder though it's what is now stopping her now to shot punches at people rayman style?or to shot leg boomerangs?the fruit doesn't have rules anymore.

WRONG! We all know that Luffy will obiviously become the king Of piratesā¦ still, at his beginnings he often scream'd that he's weak and needs to get much more stronger to protect his friends... he's still sayin' the same thing from time to time.. so If barto says the same, it doesn't mean he's a useless/weak rockie, but might be the most dangerous one out of them.

What do you mean, where is it stated that supernovas are in fact so much overwhelmingly stronger than Doflamingo's officiers that they can take them out with ease? So far Delinger is the only one who fell in one attack without doing anything, from Hakuba.

In the HALF&HALF MODE, Hakubendish looks the same as Gill Malekhite, "Malekhite the accursed" (EVIL FACE + HAIRS)
Oh I love you for posting that image! ā¦ though I never heard Malakith the Accursed (called in the USA from what I've seen) called "Gill Malekhite", wonder if its just a cultural translation..
And now that you mention it, Hakuba's smile does remind me of Malakith, and with one side of the face in shadows, it really does look similar -
LOL Gladius look likes Tamagon from the Franky Family in that form. XD I was really amazed by Robin in this chapter. She was able to catch Hakuba in his mad dash when many "powerful" gladiators couldn't even react/defend themselves from this same attack. Robin is too awesome.
And Bartolomeo was great in this chapter as well. His courage and humor knows no bounds.

well,if we count that this is not dragonball with power levels,it might exist someone that is a supernova not because he can defeat people,but because he can't be defeatedā¦
from what we know at the moment barto's barrier is actually undestructible,that means that in normal condition he can't be beaten
so we can still counting him as a "strong" fighter,just an extremely defensive strong fighter

well he actually took several of gladius' blows on purpose for robin, though
he probably would've looked far stronger if he didnt throw himself in every attack for his comic relief moment.
in the end he still won, even though that last needleattack should've made his whole body numb. -
Both are interesting and possible. @Sabinis, I wouldn't be too surprised, after all Jango had a mushroom grow on his chin, he ate the cap but the stalk was left behind all this time. So ā¦.

To be honest it was first idea that I had and what Seafarer came up with I also like more than my own idea
-
Bari Bari No Pistol made my day!!!
By the way , gladius without hair = Jinzo (Yu gi oh) . LoL i was delighted to think of that
-
Poisonous hair gel for the win.
-
Bari Bari No Pistol made my day!!!

Or Vergo
Though compared to Vergo Gladius needed to just get hit in the head and kiss the ground for a K.O.

Barto is the next Whitebeard.

Barto defeated Gladius in one move. He had so much trouble because he protected Robin.

Just thinking about Usopp commanding an army of Giant- and dwarf knights at the end, whoa! -

ā¦but he took Gladius down with relative ease?
I mean, the Bari Bari no Pistol must be one of Barto's most basic moves.

The main principle of her fruit is still there. She sprouts her limbsā¦ If she will sprout legs on a piece if brick- it will be able to walk. Brick in this case plays a role of "roots". Her clone can be explained with a step by step "creation". First head, than shoulders, arms torso hips and finally legs. In this case "roots " are her upper body.
She also doesn't need to see where to sprout her limbs "she needs to have a general understanding of the position of the target". It was shown when she created her upper body next to Law to communicate with him. She knows how Law looks like and where he is (at the beach), this information helps her to create a clone on the sand next to Law. If she didn't know where he was, she could have created a clone on Law's back.
