We were told who exactly orders around CP0, not the gorousei but theh "celestials" and among is the true leader? A religious figure or king?
CP0 in my opinion, still has something to do on DressRosa before we go on too the next ARc.
I love your signature was that a Rebecca reference for when she could have still attained Mera Mera? She's 16 bro, is that legal in Japan? 
CP0 might be called again soon once CDs hear about what L&L just did. Rob Lucci 2.0 bring it on!
Technically yea.
My reaction if I saw someone take heaps of damage would be "what a tank".
Doflamingo would make a great meat shield.
Doffy was more of a high level DPS type with great gear. 
Doffy was more of a high level DPS type with great gear.
Even with health renewal Doflamingo lost. Luffy out DPS'ed him. 
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
he is public enemy No.1 - his list of crimes is far too great for that to ever happen.
His father is the No.1 :P
If the Gorosei didn't consider Luffy to be a Shichibukai then because he is allied with an ex-Shichibukai.
Had Fujitora destroyed the Birdcage while Doula was still conscious, people would have started to call the HQ for help, thus the whole thing gets reported and covered up. Same thing if Fuji had just defeated Doula by himself, as people were witnessing the whole fight and would report that Fuji had saved the day.
The Birdcage being able to be destroyed or not, in the end, is irrelevant for Fujitora. The blocked communications actually helped him.
Really, the only way for Fuji to not get any credit whatsoever was for him to stay out of the fight and let somebody else do it. It was a gamble, a very risky and questionable one, but in the end, it will really pay off and benefit everybody (but the warlords).
And I'm not really trying to make up an excuse as that is exactly what being implied in the first and second-to-last pages of the chapter.
Yup. I don't get why people can't understand it. The last chapter said it as much, Akainu literally said that. Even if it wasn't a cover up, it shows that the WG saved a country and that isn't necessarily what fujitora wanted.
I know he said he's willing to save innocent lives..etc but he is also willing to sacrifice the few for the needs of the many (imo). He wants a change in the way the entire world works, a change in the system. I think wagering Luffy's win just so he can prostrate himself and make a point, was his most effective opition.
Can't wait to see the reactions of the other kingdoms that the Strawhats saved(FI, Arabasta, Drum..etc) and people like Shirahoshi/Vivi's Family(s), Jinbe Crocodile, Mihawk, Shanks, BB, BMOM, Dragon, Rayleigh, Moria, Hancock, Dadan, CP9/0, Buggy, Kizaro, Kuzan, GreenBull, Magellan, Marco and co and most of all the enraged Kaido's face.
And He's Banned for the 3rd time and he's already back(in less than a day lol). That was even faster than the second time.
I still believe Kaido's reaction won't be that of an enraged man, he will be angry but now he will definitely redirects his anger towards the Strawhats and Fishman Island rather than go all mad about his lost. He has Caribou in his possession now!

Considering who we just saw last chapter that seems like a lot more to ask even though i would love to see there reactions i highly doubt we will get all of them if any. I do really want to see Shanks, Rayleigh and Dragon but the rest i could live without.
If Fujiotra resigns I'll find things to be quite rushed. He's just been introduced in this arc as a new admiral and now we have him potentially quitting. Just doesn't sit right.
Whatever he choses to do next, it's definitely too early to take him out of the picture. I would much rather imagine him roaming the sea in an "active search" for Law & Luffy, while what he would really be doing is further his own agenda. Akainu didn't exactly revoke his authority so he might retain some pull and his soldiers - in a way this punitive assignment does give him some freedom.
Or, he will prove himself to be the incarnation of blind justice through and through and ruthlessly go after L&L.
Or take Burghess as a consolation prize.
Am I the only one who thought it was weird that Akainu actually cares about the Marines image? I guessed he'd be only pissed about Fuji letting Luffy and Law slip by. I don't think Fuji will actually go after them, he didn't strike me to be that kind of guy. Welp whatever happens, Luffy shouldn't hang around Dressrosa for too long, since there's the whole deal with the Swirlyhats to be taken care of.

And I wanna see or hear something from Absa :happy:

I don't think the blind man is that "Blind", especially after he said this:
I don't want to be made a hero on their mountain of lies. The same people that hired pirates to 'maintain world peace', my employers, the world government
…Also, Aokiji's order to bring in Luffy's head is AFTER the "END" page. So it might just be the scanlators trying to pull a joke.

well the only and one thing that we know about him,is that he is not someone you can reason with.
so bing enraged would fit the dewscription perfectly
that being said,I'm still conviced that he will attack the reverie (if the reverie is near enough..i still don't know when exactly is it supposed to happen and when we are exactly in the story
@Ne0:

A) It's Akainu, not Aokiji.
B) The end sign is not on the very last page in a bunch of chapters, especially when the "last" page is a double spread etc. Oda puts it where he wants to put it. So how is that related to the scanlators? I don't understand what you are impliying here.
Even with health renewal Doflamingo lost. Luffy out DPS'ed him.
Doflamingo's headgear (sunglasses) armor rating = 9999
It's what makes him so tanky.
If you drop to your knees or get sent flying after getting hit, then that's not tanking.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
A lot of you guys don't know what tanking means.
Pretty sure I know what it means. I've played rpgs, table top roleplay, etc and yes…I know what it means. Do you?
Tank- in a party is often the distraction or meat shield. Typically a character with high health, and/or defense and stamina. Very tough and can endure alot of damage.
And yes, Doflamingo is DEFINITELY a tank. Alot of people would have fallen or died many times over but Doflamingo did not.
@Dranza:
I like NaruHina too, Suckura doesn't deserve him, she can have Sasugay. Have you watched Naruto the last? That was sweet.
I wish One Piece had a budding romance between some of our favorite characters.
Most shonen authors don't like to dwell on romance and I can't blame them. That said, there's always boa hancock XD
Tanking an attack is receiving it head-on and not budge an inch.
Zoro's turn to shine? He got that like 3 times in Dressrosa alone. I'm a pretty big Zoro fan but even that statemeny seemed sorta funny. Like he did nothing nothing crazy like effectively cut a mountain in half while being thrown a hundred miles an hour. But I do agree that he's the best candidate to at least prevent Fuji from getting to Luffy. But I doubt it'll actually be an uninterrupted fight that show cases anything.
Barto would be stuck in a comatose fanboy state for a year if Zoro did anything further.
Pica was an underwhelmingly easy fight for Zoro. You should have noticed.
@uniaka:
And Oda is the only one to blame for protecting Zoro like a little baby and trolling Sanji ever since.
So Zoro was able to get out of Fujitora's gravity hole and even attack him at the same time, but Sanji was helpless in DD's strings.
Zoro saved his face with admiral, but Sanji gets his legs cracked by a vice admiral( hype tool marine rank of the NW). Was there ever someone that looked bad in One Piece agains't a vice freaking admiral? All the ones I remember got trashed or looked bad.
The only way Oda would make it up for me is if Sanji beats Capone Bege.(not going to see it)
And it's not just Sanji here, Smoker's treatment after the time skip is poor too. After 2 years we see Smoker get defeated 3 times in the same arc. And the guy could be Luffy's main marine rival.
Agree about Zoro and Sanji…didn't notice that about Zoro because I was too busy noticing he hasn't beaten a worthy opponent even once since the timeskip, meanwhile Luffy finally has with Doflamingo. Hell, other than a brief scuffle with Fujitora, everyone Zoro has fought was someone he easily beat like they were nothing. That's rather boring.
That said...has Sanji fought anyone other than a pacifista, Virgo and Doflamingo? Jeez poor guy is getting the shafts and I agree it's too bad to waste such a good character.
All of that said, Smoker has ALWAYS sucked. It's not just a timeskip thing. Whether for plot convenience or not, Smoker has never won an onscreen fight. Ever. And he almost always ends up letting Luffy get away. Smoker isn't effective at all with catching Luffy and I'm beginning to wonder if he secretly even wants to at all anymore. His only true shining moment imo was Loguetown. That's it.
If Fujiotra resigns I'll find things to be quite rushed. He's just been introduced in this arc as a new admiral and now we have him potentially quitting. Just doesn't sit right.
Fujitora for next Strawhat!
….just kidding XD
@Shadowgreed:

Not necessarily. Not all tanks do that. These are human beings. I know Oda can make it hard to see them that way, but they are. Tanks don't always mean immovable. But getting back up and having near to no damage from an attack that should've killed him..and doing that against Red Hawk, Gear four, many strikes from gear second AND gamma knife of all things…if he's not a tank...I don't know what is anymore! Hell, what would you call him?
I wouldn't call Doffy a tank. It's just that all his skills are very high that he has the ability to 'tank' Luffy's attacks, pretty much like every major villain that Luffy fights. Arlong, Crocodile, Lucci, Moria etc, they can all play the tank part because they are a level above Luffy. A level that Luffy needs to overcome during the fight.

The problem is that this is par for the course with One Piece. Characters have incredible toughness. What Doula did was standard for most arc villains, relatively speaking.
Also, saying that he took near to no damage from Red Hawk and stuff is wrong, as his facial reactions showed. Red Hawk and Injection Shot made him internally bleed (an usual sign of an effective attack) while Gamma Knife almost killed him. Also, all moves from Gear 4th affected him.
Doula actually dodged and blocked most attacks directed at him. He never actually tried to take attacks head on as seen by the several Spider Webs and Off Whites he summoned + Haki. This is why Gear 4th was too effective as it could overwhelm his defenses.
This reminds me of when somebody said Crocodile was a tank because he survived an attack from Jozu.

Welp whatever happens, Luffy shouldn't hang around Dressrosa for too long, since there's the whole deal with the Swirlyhats to be taken care of.
I think Fujitora will warn the Strawhats in passing to leave the island before he gets at them. So maybe, a head start as a favour or he actually leaves the island and warns them he won't let them off next time, coz they are still pirates to him.
Doffy is a tank. Remember when baby 5 shot him in the face and he remained unaffected?
Now to tank Luffy's gear 4 attacks is probably impossible for anyone in the OP universe. There's too much power to it.
I liked doffy's acrobatic style. The one flip kick he uses on Law on the bridge was super dirty. very cool stuff. His devil fruit looked pretty crazy but I did not like string clones. Those were fucking Naruto and they were hokey.
Also about Sanji, it's possible Oda wants to actually place him up to Supernova level by bringing in Capone. We are probably going to see Sanji defeat Capone at least, and not Pekoms & Co. So I guess Oda redeems Sanji by causing a stir by making him beat up Capone.

Sanji should at least be strong enough to fight Pekoms. The guy's a fighter that uses haki with a turtle defense. Capone's a different story. If you're not aware of his df powers, you'll end up shrinking within his sphere.
So now that the birdcage has fallen and considering how fast the news got out of Dressrosa, I think at the end of the next chapter we'll get a message from the Swirlyhats (send help or infodump) or the people that hold them imprisoned (demanding ransom).
Big Mom could also still be Lola's mom and Nami saved them all with that vivre card !

Fujitora will still walk into marine headquarters with the excuse that Revolutionary army #2 got in his way, and he is luffy's brother. But here, I captured Burgess instead. Sakazuki will be all- ummm, k, k, Burgess will do.

Never…. Even if Nami saves them with the card, Luffy will still wanna beat Big mom up....Luffy don't care if your his friend or family if you get in his way he will beat your ass and that's why I love Luffy character, he is nothing like the other 90% manga/anime characters who will try to save everyone including someone who just murdered their whole parents or tried killing a whole town.

Am I one of the only people who doesn't believe Big Mom has any connection to Lola. If she was Big Mom's daughter, then by Moria capturing her it would be an act of war. Moria would not dare cross the Yonko.
Pica was an underwhelmingly easy fight for Zoro. You should have noticed.
Oh I see what you mean. You wanted him to have a tough fight, not wow the crowds with ease. I think I'm probably one of the few that hasn't minded it being a cake walk for him up to this point. Yes I want some actual opponents that are a challenge but I'm also basically pleased with how strong he did get. I found the Monet and Pica fights to have a fairly good pay off. Not the Fishman Island stuff though. But eh, that arc had a bunch of stuff I didn't care for.

@Game:

I think that option shrinked after this chapter. If Kid was going after Big Mom, then you could say he would be the one to take her down and Luffy will just go after Kaido. But now, Big mom should be Luffy's enemy since there's no other supernova gang to go after her.
Fujitora will still walk into marine headquarters with the excuse that Revolutionary army #2 got in his way, and he is luffy's brother. But here, I captured Burgess instead. Sakazuki will be all- ummm, k, k, Burgess will do.
Burgess won't get captured since he is future villain subordinate. And I don't think Blackbeard would care enough to rescue him from Impel Down.

Unless Moria had no idea and Lola didn't say anything because she wanted to succeed on her own, without calling her mommy's name as soon as she's in trouble.
Not saying you're wrong, but your argument doesn't stand.
EDIT: Oh, hi kcity :ninja:
The marines may have some more bases in the New World, but they won't be that numerous to threaten him of getting supplies. Issho very likely being a New World native will have his own connections to NW countries I assume.

I never commented on fuji and saka 's conversation, well its not done. Akainu's final reaction to Fujitora and also lately, every new chapter is the direct continuation of the last, will comment when its concluded. Can't wait for the Hawkins alliance to smack shanks like L and L did to kaido, and i suspect Big mom. If Lola card has any use, it will serve as the compass for the strawhats to go kick Big mom A..... all over the new world. If Big Mom has any relation to that useless character.... why do people talk as if Captain Kid is the only person after Shanks? Sure Shanks and crew are indeed powerful, thats a given though, Yonko shanks... but great people always has enemies...... and if it was just a simple frontal attack, why would the alliance spend two days together planning a frontal attack.... the day the they formed the alliance,and the current day? Since the news paper and current events clearly came after a night. Why did kid sink Big Mom ships? Was there any gain, was it practice? Also people in universe say how Kid, Drake and others do big things, what could Drake do while under Kaido? And why would Kaido's men need help talking to Kaido? Four days till we find out more......

Interesting! Interesting!
I personally think they were attacking Big Moms ships for resources.
As law mentioned, a single pirate crew wouldn't even see an Emperor. That's why pirates make an alliance. In this case KHA.
I don't know what you meant about Kaido's men talking to Kaido. Only thing we saw were the guys looking for him.
Kaido might be in a forest being his creature self.
I really want to see how this plays out, not an off-panel. Showing us what it's like first hand from another perspective.

Dude ur original comment was saying that Luffy doesn't beat his friends up if they are in his way. Doesn't matter if he was trying to save Ace he still did it. Also i think you are forgetting about the time Luffy wanted to go beat up Hody and since Jinbei didn't want him to they had a fight. If someone is in Luffy's way he at least trys to get them out of his way.

Jimbei being in Luffy's way was the only reason they fought on FI.
Franky in Chopper's body happened on Punk Hazard. He was in the way and couldn't be reasoned with so he got knocked out.
