Thanks Redon

What a shame. All the concept art for the Vinsmokes is more interesting then what we got.

So Jimbei's not on the full anniversary poster at all?

Got my ONE PIECE Magazine 3 today. Here is my translation for Oda's message about the bonus manga "Episode Luff".
Oda: Thank you so much for reading this bonus manga. Actually it's not that I want you to read this story in detail. The production team for ONE PIECE Magazine made a request to me,
"Would it be possible for you to draw a bonus manga which handles "IF" story in which Luffy, Ace and Sabo grow up and have an adventure together?"I replied to them, "Such a world can't exist considering all three of them want to be a captain".
"If it ever existed, Luffy's personality would be a bit different from what he is now since he would not meet current Straw Hats."
This means collapse of ONE PIECE world. There is no way!!That being said, I understand that many audience would want to see Luffy, Ace and Sabo as adults talking together in the same panel.
I thought, "If they meet together somewhere, it must be that scene". Only that scene would be able to become "IF" manga.
I can see some audience will strongly object to me. This is why I had to draw this bonus manga as seriously as actual chapter (every week).
I'm sure both Sabo and Luffy suffered from the unchangeable past after they imagined this kind of "IF" story.This bonus manga doesn't change anything about the main story of ONE PIECE, but it would be appreciated if you enjoy this manga I drew seriously.
Sorry if some of you feel offended after reading it.September, 2017 Eiichiro Oda

Thanks Sandman
So for Oda the straw hat not meeting would collapse the One Piece world:blink:

Nami is a marine now cosplay as Ain :ninja:

Ace used Color of Armament Haki for the first time after he was offered to join Shichibukai according to Ace novel. The novel was supervised by Oda himself:wub:

I don't think you can use CoA unknowingly, we've never seen it before.

There is a first time for everything.

Not unknowingly but not a strong one. Remember that Rayleigh told Luffy back then that he needs to train it?

All parts:
Thanks! But what the heck does it say in the back ground? "NO MAN IS AN…" ?
And why Robin ain't got no blue? She know Jimbei coming! Unless her blue is under the black and even more skimpy that Nami's. Robin does find Jimbei handsome.

She has blue sunglasses, at least.

You've never heard the phrase "No man is an island"?
-
@Count:

Ah, so she does!
You've never heard the phrase "No man is an island"?
Ah yes! The good ol' tried and true idiom, "No man is an island". I think I that was the phrase on Wheel Of Fortune just the other day.
I'm obviously joking but then I looked it up and that really is a thing isn't it?

The egg belonging to a Sea King is interesting…
If it came from one of the moons of the one piece world... that'd be interesting too

whoa that Oars picture is godly

One Piece 20th Anniversary poster part 3.
So Shusui turned red
-
I guess those two million extra on Sabo´s bounty, comes from him flipping off a celestial dragon^^
The Oars pic definitely is badass!!! -
So Shusui turned red
The hamon was red when we first saw it colored on the cover of volume 50. After that(colorspread of chapter 598 and onward) Oda changed it to silver for some reason and since the cover of the 10th WSJ issue in 2015 it's red again.

On the volume 50, the hamon is white/silver. It was never red before this Jump Cover.
-
I was also under the impression that Shusui's hamon was red but I just checked and it seems like it was always a classic silver in the manga.
The anime however seems to use a red-ish and purple scheme. I'm guessing that makes the sword more noticible in animation.
Couldn't find a decent image from one of the films overseen by Oda, to check if it's akin to Robin's eye color, though. -
One Piece magazines poster better quality.

An egg aboard the Oro Jackson? D:
That is interesting… maybe is the seed of the Devil Tree :3

Here is my summary for Ace novel chapter 3 in ONE PIECE Magazine which was released 2 days ago.
Spade Pirates stay in Sabaody Archipelago for ship coating. Skull tells the crewmates not to cause any troubles with Celestial Dragons, Marine, bounty hunters and such, but Ace is already obsessed with the idea about what he should eat in Sabaody including Grand Line Manju (traditional Japanese confection). Deuce decides to pay attention to Ace since he might burn Celestial Dragons.
Female Marine lieutenant Isca appears out of Spade Pirates ship and shouts Ace to come out of the ship. Isca and Spade Pirates have met so many times ever since they entered Grand Line. Spade Pirates seems a bit disgusted rather than being afraid of her since Ace has been handling her easily.
Ace asks her friendly, "Hey, Isca! What are you doing here? Sightseeing?"
Isca: I came here to arrest you, idiot!
Ace: I see. By the way, do you know any good souvenirs other than Grand Line Manju?
Isca: I bought Grand Line Senbei (a type of Japanese rice crackers) for my subordinates since it stays fresh for a long period of time….. No, I didn't come here for sightseeing!Contrary to her words, she wears plain clothes like tourists instead of Marine coat today. Deuce considers Isca is a nice and honest person although she is a bit careless. Isca keeps shouting to let Ace come out of the ship, but actually he has already escaped to eat foods in downtown. Miharl notices Ace's wallet being left on the ship. Deuce is shocked and goes out of the ship to find Ace.
Deuce sees many mad restaurant staffs on a street since Ace didn't pay money to their foods. Finally he finds Ace sleeping on a bench near Ferris wheel at Sabaody Park. Deuce gives him a chop on his head to wake him up. Ace decides to ride on the Ferris wheel with Deuce since Deuce seems fascinated with it.
Right after they ride, Isca rushes into their gondola. Ace and Isca start a quarrel as usual. Deuce notices the gondola being locked. After a while, Isca keeps glaring at them without saying any words, but Ace is enjoying the great view from the window. Deuce feels stressed as if he is in a prison. He is wondering, "Why the heck are we riding on a Ferris wheel with Marine!?"
Deuce stares at a burn scar on Isca's hand. She tells him that her village was burned by pirates and lost her parents when she was a child. She says Lieutenant Commander named Draw/Drow saved her from the fire. She has heard that he is now Vice-Admiral. Isca joined Marine since she had been admiring him. Isca smiles, "I don't want any children to feel the same pain as me. I'll capture all evil pirates." Deuce thinks it is the first time to see her calm facial expression like this.
Isca suddenly suggests Ace to quit a pirate since she can't believe he is evil no matter how she tried. She tells him that she would recommend Spade Pirates to Marine if they have no other place to go. Deuce can't say any words due to surprise. Ace keeps silent.
Ace notices the door in the gondola being open by his mistake. He decides to get out of the gondola, saying he is hungry. Isca tells him that she hasn't received his answer yet. "Quitting pirates and becoming Marine... I can't do that." Ace shows a gloomy face for only a moment, but soon he shows a bright face as usual. "See you again, Isca." He jumps out of the gondola.
Isca seems a bit disappointed. Deuce asks Isca whether she will take him as a hostage so that Ace will appear in front of Marine. Deuce is pretty sure that Ace is a kind of person who comes to save his crewmates. Isca denies,
"People who belong to justice won't take hostages, idiot!"
She says in a small voice that this is why she wants Ace to become her comrades.
"I'll let you go this time. Today is a holiday for me. I came here for sightseeing."
Deuce replies that he already knew it and left the the Ferris wheel.Ace and Deuce walk around Sabaody. They enjoy eating foods until ship coating is finished. 3 days after arriving Sabaody, ship coating is going to be finished. Ace and Deuce stray into a slum area. Ace finds some hungry kids and gives them all of his Grand Line Senbeis. They show smiles and leave cherishing senbeis in their hands.
Isca and robust looking male Vice-Admiral Draw appear in front of Ace and Deuce. Isca looks excited.
Isca: Good news, Fire-Fist!Draw shows a letter to Ace, which says Gorousei recommends him to join Shichibukai. Isca says happily, "Now you don't need to retire from pirate!" However, Ace refuses it without hesitation. "Joining Shichibukai... Nothing doing."
Isca can't help being surprised. Ace says he doesn't like the system of Shichibukai. Draw smiles silently and tears apart the offering paper. Draw says he has been against Shichibukai system, too. He tries to punch Ace. His fist easily gouges the ground where Ace stood. Isca gets upset and asks Draw to stop fighting.
Deuce tells her that their conversation is over now that both of them hate Shichibukai. Draw is glad that Ace refuses the offer in front of him. He thinks he can beat "Fire-Fist" Ace to his heart content. Draw takes off his Marine coat. He has 2 flamethrowers under his arms. "Which is superior between my flamethrowers and your Mera Mera DF?" Deuce shouts, "Let's run away!"
Draw "I won't let you escape!" Strong fire from his weapon burns a building in the slum area. Kids in the buildings scream surrounded by fire.
"What the heck are you doing!?" Ace shouts and tries to save kids, but the fire from Draw is too strong. Thanks to Deuce grappling with Draw's body, Isca manages to rescue kids in the building which is about to collapse. Deuce doesn't release his hold despite the strong fire.
Deuce removes the fuel tank from Draw. Ace punches Draw in the face with Mera Mera DF, but it doesn't hurt him at all. Draw smiles.
He lifts up Ace and tries to choke him off with his hands despite Ace being a Logia DF user.Ace: Is this so-called Haki...?
Draw: Your happy pirate life ends here. As a person of justice, I kill you.
Ace: I don't want anyone to mention justice who makes kids in danger ...!
Draw: Don't get me wrong. I'm just working to capture pirates. Without you, those kids wouldn't have got involved into the fire.Ace can't make a rebuttal and shows a gloomy face.
Draw: If there were no pirates in the world, I wouldn't need to set fire to buildings.
Isca is shocked to heart that.
Isca: Vice Admiral.. Tell me you're lying... The criminal who set fire to my village were pirates, right...? Because you saved my life... My parents...
Draw: Don't complain just because a few civilians became victims for our mission. Sacrifice is inevitable for justice.Isca breaks down crying.
Draw's fuel tank bursts due to Ace's fire. Both Ace and Draw get injured by the explosion.
Deuce: Even if Ace's fire is not effective to you, you can't extinguish his fire named rage with your Haki!!
Ace and Draw duke it out. Draw suffers a damage from Ace's fist.
Deuce: You're underestimating Ace...
Deuce says calmly. He knows Ace is so strong without Mera Mera DF and he gets stronger even during one battle.
Ace is overwhelming Draw now. Draw is out of breath and shows a painful face.Draw: Impossible! Why..Why the heck are you using Haki?
Ace: Who knows!!Ace and Draw punch them in face at the same time. Draw smiles for a moment, but he collapses on the ground.
Draw: Damn.. I hate you..
Ace: What a coincidence. So do I..Deuce is impressed that Ace defeated Vice Admiral. Ace smiles, panting.
Ace: It's not a big deal...Deuce lends his shoulder to Ace since Ace is so exhausted that his feet are unsteady. Deuce tells him to go back to their ship as soon as possible since Marine will chase them, but Ace can't leave there worrying about Isca.
Isca seems to be in despair. Ace tells her to get on board Spade Pirates ship. He wants her to become a bounty hunter who aims to hunt him on the same ship. He stretches out his hand toward Isca.
Isca wipes away her tears and smiles, "You Idiot, Fire Fist..! There is no way a bounty hunter and a pirate shake hands!"
Ace, Deuce and Isca run out of the slum area. They can escape safely since Isca tells them the whereabouts of Marines. They find Spade Pirates ship gradually departing from a port. Skull tells them to hurry up. They need to jump from the port to their ship.
Ace: Let's go, Isca!
Ace and Deuce jumps to their ship, but Ace is surprised to see Isca still staying at the port.Ace: Why..!?
Isca: I'm Marine... I can't go with you...
She smiles weakly.Ace: Why!!
Isca: Don't die, Ace. Thank you. (TN: This is the first time Isca calls his name. She has been calling him "Fire Fist".)The distance between Ace and Isca is getting bigger as the ship moves forward.
Ace is disappointed. "Should I have shaken hands with her..? But it can't be helped since I'm a pirate and my hands turns into fire."Ace pulls down his hat over his eyes.
Deuce: Ace…You...Ace always considers that he should not be loved by others, but Deuce knows Ace is like a sun for everyone. Warships are approaching. Spade Pirates escapes from them thanks to Ace's fire fist.
Ace: Let's go, guys!!
Ace has to fight as a captain no matter what separation he experiences. Spade Pirates ship dives into the deep sea toward Fishman Island. In the dark deep sea, Ace's ambition is burning. He is heading for New World and plans to take Whitebeard's head, who is said to be the nearest person from ONE PIECE. The ship gradually goes into the dark sea.
ONE PIECE Magazine says the sequel of Ace novel will be announced in Weekly Shonen Jump in the future.:wub:
Ace's adventure in New World will be written in the sequel novel. It also says Ace novel will be published as a volume.It was mastered or it was like the CoC blast in Grey Terminal?
The latter, it seems

Thanks Sandman for Translations.
-
This Ace is more fun that the Whitebeard fanatic we know of.
-
Thanks sandman, I hope we can see Isca in the main series one day.
-
That's a nice story.
It could work well as an animated special or movie in the future.Thank's for the translation as always, Sandman.
-
I wonder how Isca felt during Ace's execution.
-
This part seems to have alot of interesting informations, can you give us a short summary, sandman ?
!
-
Judging by Sandman's summary, I like the Ace novel a lot. It captures Ace's personality pretty well and I could vividly imagine the battle between him and Draw. Though I think it also solidified my lack of interest in seeing bounty hunters in this series, everything with that was mostly pretty boring.
-
@Count:

Is it confirmed is she is even dead or alive?
