Chapter 900: Bad End Musical (Break)

SirCaesar

Well, the explanation could be a limited number of times that this technique can be used.
But personally I don't need an explanation why they didn't use it before, because it's just story telling, if they had used it before, then this scenario wouldn't be as dramatic as it is now. Everybody would just think “yeah, ok they are diving again, no need to worry”. You know what I mean.

Nope. Nami even said goodbye to Luffy, they were legit scared that they were all going to die and there was nothing they could do… until Jinbe did his thing. Makes no sense to "save this move for later" when you think you are about to die and have time to prepare (they saw the wave approaching, Jinbe had time to make people tie ropes to the main sail etc)

@uniaka:

If this is the work of Nami and her illusions she is the real MVP of the arc and year of nami, f*** brook and sanji. Pretty much defeated cracker's soldiers with her rain, stole BM's zeus homie from under her feet and attacked her twice with him, and now this.

nami can't make illusions, she can make mirages,meaning she can make you see something that is in a place somewhere else..she can't make the sunny appears like it's destroyed

The Enigma

Damn. That ending has to the most hopeless it's ever looked for the crew. Not too sure what could pull them out of this one and feel satisfying.

Time for luffy to destroy fish island

Nah, half of the Crew is still left. But they probably got ganked by Kaidou by now.

@Kfunk:

I do hope Sunny got wrecked, kinda tired of the cop-outs
But I have a hard time believing it got destroyed like that, without any kind of build-up.

16 chars of that's indestructable tree-of-Adam-Wood for you.

Sads

Okay how is Oven not a Sweet Commander?

Piitan

Imagine next chapter we switch to Zoro & gang, see them fight some shadowy Kaido Calamity, then get completely destroyed by him.
Then next chapter we start the Reverie and don't see either half of the SHs until late autumn.

DeathKnight

That lump of cake Mama holds looks like a head. I wonder if she will remember what she did after eating the cake or kind of go crazy while eating and start trying to eat the citizens

That was a different situation, they had a giant wave right behind them, and it doesn't matter if they would've been under water or on the surface, because they would've been hit hard. They would have been wrecked for sure. AND this scene was to show off Jinbes capabilities as a helmsman.

yeah, now i'm conviced…the resolution will be a disappointment like "oh it was all a dream"

only real way to continue the series

The likes of Sanji can hurt him before he notices anything? :ninja:

It seems for now Sanji did not defeat Mum with his cake but I suppose it's still a bit early and we have to wait for the pendulum switching side.
Poor Franky, in what state will he retrieve his dear Sunny. I didn't expect this cliffhanger once again and even if it is just a one chapter suspense, it was well done and the resolution of the arc is still obscure. Which is good

Well, based on capone and those fooder cooks(when they tasted sanji's cake cream thing), it would be wierd if it doesn't defeat them, but it defeats BM.

Maybe sanji wanted to say, when BM will eat the cake, the Straw hats will be KO.:ninja:

.access timeco.

The real question this chapter begs is: who is Tristan giving that apple to? I mean, there's no one there, girl.

Oven sure had a very suitable ability, but still taking out a whole Shichibukai crew like that in a second is damn impressive. And he is not even among the 5 strongest in his crew, if the fact he is not a SC says anything.

The chapter as a whole was amazing to read. Finally the BMP face was restored (and now we can go to Wano not thinking the Yonkou are just "meh…"), but I particularly love the fact Brulee was behind a lot ofwhat we saw in this chapter (machine gun to screw the Germa over? Brulee. Oven got on the sea to defeat the Sun Pirates? Brulee!). After all she was forced to do in this arc against her family, that was just fair.

I just with this chapter had two more pages after the "sinking Sunny", a double spread with nothing but a huge:

As for what happened and how it will develop, I will just quote my prediction from the spoilers thread:

All we saw actually happened.- The Sunny is in a terrible state, but not completely destroyed. As the Big Chanter and Smoothie approach, the SH realize it is over.

BM inquires about the who made the cake and it is revealed it was Pudding and Chiffon.

Chiffon arrives and tells her they made the cake, but the heavenly taste was actually the work of Sanji

As the SH are about to be destroyed, direct orders from BM arrive demanding the SH must be kept alive at any cost.

I know folks ain't fans of mangastream but can you PLEASE include the link for it in the first post because jaminis refuses to work for me it just won't load no matter what I do. And I might not be alone on that. Having to hunt down the chapter each week sucks.

I suck.

EDIT: In your defence this time, they haven't even got the chapter out yet… now I have to wait for all of eternity. Mangastream why.

Edit 2 of the humanity of it all: Theone time I comeback and say 'hey yh jamiins never works' IT STARTS WORKING.

Edit 3 MAKE IT STOP: After I said that, the pages refused to load. Only the first 2 would. None of the actual chapter did.

kaedro

I think Wadatsumi may have taken the Sunny underwater just before it got completely burned. What do you guys think?
In the penultimate panel of the last page we see the Sunny going underwater. I don't think burning ships sink that fast.

What? You can't get hit by a wave if you are underwater, lol

Do they have brulee with them, because brulee could instant transport them…

Its eiher a submarine thing or a brulee thing.

brulee and her mirrors that were hidden in the water could be the key...

oven just moved using the mirrors, so brulee is free and working for big mom.

also, there are no ship on the sunny anymore.

BingBang

Nothing will happen to the Sunny. It's Oda. Nami is going to use some Mirage in another ship taking the form of the Sunny and they will escape.

I need more…

So, you will tell me, that if this kind of wave hits you underwater, you won't be affected? I doubt it.
And this wave has a soul.

Why is this thread still not sticked?

Mama was looking like she was in the toon town from Roger Rabbit, make a dead puppy get up and dance. WOW that is dark. LOL.

Yep, I'm telling you. You can't get hit by a surface wave underwater

Kaido King of the Beasts

Y'all have such shitty imaginations lol. Don't y'all remember what happened when there was a tsunami that Nami proclaimed inescapable? That wasn't BS and I doubt next chapter's turns of events will be either.

@Shobu:

It doesn't make sense that this very Big Mom's ship was tagging the Sunny along at Dressrosa, trying to stop it… like all the time for them to reach Zou... and in this chapter it blowed the Sunny with a one-shot.

It makes sense considering at Dressrosa the Sunny: was sailing away from the Chanter, not towards it, and wasn't going along a narrow path surrounded by ship wreckage. And the Dressrosa crew attacked the Chanter immediately after being confronted; they didn't let it chase them all the way to Zou.

@SuperJew:

If the Fishmen can’t survive this boiling sea, what makes people think the Sunny can? Especially since it’s been proven to cause serious damage/explosions to ships.

The Sunny actually has been in this situation before - in Chapter 825, they sailed through a boiling ocean before entering Totto Land.

@Sirxxx:

…..........
So can we vote Sanji off the ship now? Well, off of whatever's left of the ship...

This is like the 3rd time this arc he's gotten everybody killed >_>

This doesn't really have anything to do with Sanji. It's more Luffy's fault for needing to be rescued.

If that cake hadn't been made, Big Mom would still be chasing the Straw Hats.

Melker

There are so many reverse ass pulls being performed by the BMP now. Like, a fleet showing up out of nowhere and then a big ship. Jeez.

Hot water -> Nami mirage tempo…

And this, people, is exactly why I wish Luffy would stop telling everyone how much of a Pirate King he thinks he's going to be…

@r4mz1:

mirage tempo can't make you see things that don't exist

a mirage is a light reflection that displaces the image of something that exists and put it somewhere else.

a mirage can't make you see the sunny destroyed and in flames

Questions here about the colour-spread: Who's that reindeer mink Chopper is courting? I think we've seen her before, but when?

As for what happened to the Sunny there are several possibilities. But the cover with the strawhat without Jimbe, makes me cherish Jimbe still have another moment for shine here. So that from that moment on we'll have a colour Jimbe in the colour pages.

Also what is Nekomamushi doing with his right hand? :happy:

The fleet was surrounding the island, all they did was circle around it and corner the Straw Hats as they fled. And this ship was already familiar to us, all they did was send it there. How is that remotely an ass pull? They realised the Straw Hats had to be dealt with at all costs a few chapters ago already, so they sent all the forces they could muster.

Halfmetal-lich

Amazing color spread, good chapter, bullshit fakeout.

Can't WAIT to see all the youtube fucking chapter reviewers start their videos with clickbait titles like "ARE THE STRAW HATS DEAD?!??!?"

Gotta get them clicks somehow, assholes.

They may not be dead but its hard to see SH pirates get out of this one, the only option is april fools by GODA! and BM was helusinating

Her name is Milky. We saw her and the effects she has on Chopper when Luffy and co went to see Nekomamushi.

that's the assistant of the mink doctor. i remember her better from the anime during Sanji's garchu scenes.

@KageKageKing:

Yes! That made my day! Someone else who knows of this ridiculous game

But now to the chapter at hand. Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks its Snack facing off against Judge, though I am curious about who else is there with them. Kinda curious to see what will happen to Germa though I think they'll be fine.

I was hoping that the cake would restore BM and make her crazy as a result and that flashback from when she was a kid was such a tease! I was hoping we actually would have seen more of what happened and have confirmation that she ate everyone, but alas not this chapter. The fact that Oda wrote in a musical number was great. I'm not big into musicals but I really enjoyed the imagery and juxtaposition of the (supposed) situations between BMP celebrating and on the offensive vs fishmen boiling in the sea and SH trying to escape.

I don't know about anyone else, but when the fishmen showed up in 899 I was less than enthused. I figured it was going to be a quick and easy escape and was really hoping that Oven would step in. Well, his appearance made my day. I got exactly what I wanted. Though I thought it was hilarious that the one thing he's most pissed about is Katakuri losing to Luffy. Don't you just love siblings? Oh, and I wonder if BM still remembers her threat to Perospero (or if he still remembers for that matter).

Like others I think the SH will be fine.I don't think the ship is badly damaged (if at all) and I could see Nami making a mirage to create some sort of a distraction. What I do wonder is how Nami is going to use Zeus.

Overall I liked the chapter but the next two weeks are going to be long.

NateRich

What the hell? :blink:

I don't even want to waste energy speculating on what happened. I feel like the arc has huge boom or bust potential after this. Next chapter would be an amusing time to suddenly cut to Wano, but that would be agonizing.

No, no! It's a reverse ass pull!

BattleFranky69

Well, the Vinsmokes were getting riddled with bullets, but I can't tell if that was from the Big Mom flagship or if it was the ammo Oven said Brulee was bringing that could penetrate their exoskeletons, or both, so maybe, just maybe, that fire on the Straw Hats' ship is Sanji's aura from finally awakening his dormant enhancement genes because of what he saw happen to Reiju, thinking she might be dead. He may have counted on them kicking ass but seeing them get gunned down could have come as such a traumatic shock to him, he couldn't help himself getting emotionally overwhelmed and pulling a Gohan-style powerup. Really, really hoping that's what it turns out to be.

@Melker:

Each island has their own flotilla squadron, and there's about 35 islands, so it's not a big stretch.

@r4mz1:

right b/c they were able to stop the cannons before w/ casear monster point and sanji. Just use luffy instead and viola.

This has to be a mirage tempo.

Tristan the Squirrel was the goat's assistant.

Milk the Reindeer was Chopper's assistant.

liangying

It has to be an hallucination or something Big mum wants to happen. This is definitely ODA attempt to pull off an April's Fool joke.

Sirxxx

Okay, so you know how everyone was wanting Katakuri to take over as the main character and how Oda likes to please his fans…

@churlyryan:

And this, people, is exactly why I wish Luffy would stop telling everyone how much of a Pirate King he thinks he's going to be…

I guffawed way harder than intended! A double-spread full of various characters from One Piece's past yelling "Told ya!" would be fantastic.
