If only we knew Ulti's/Page's ocean of origin we could speculate better.
It says Grand Line for both. Gonna guess if New World of Paradise tho

@Johnny:
I wonder if Page-One and Ulti's father was a member of Moria's crew, by chance?
Now that would've been pretty fucked up and cold blooded on Kaido's part. So it probably is what happened.
Ulti can't stop being the best Tobiroppo even on SBS. She straight up stole the Devil Fruits from Kaido himself. That's badass, if you ask me. And I guess Kaido thought so too, and instead of getting mad he awarded them a position in the Tobiroppo.
I really, really wish Ulti could be a presence in the last few arcs of One Piece in some fashion, even if it is a cover story of The Adventures of Ulti and Pay Pay.
Black Maria using something similar to a rumble ball + her being born in Wano makes me wish she had more to do. I do think Oda's biggest mistake was only introducing Pay Pay and Drake before Onigashima - I still remember the chapter(s) pre-Dressrosa where Oda gave us glimpses of Doffy's crew. Even that would've been pretty cool. Relegating them 100% to Onigashima while being mid-bosses that have to be defeated before Kaido falls limited their panel time so much, it's a shame.

Exactly this. Ulti is my favourite of the 6, and this SBS reconfirms it. It's such a pity she had to get taken out the way she did.
Kaido knew their father, i wonder if he was a former Rocks member or higher ranking member of the crew? Still that was downright decent of Kaido, i guess the guy isn't a total psycho, he has shown his moments, like stopping Jack from getting killed by the Minks.
Hopefully Ulti not being listen among the "fallen Tobiroppo" could give us hopes for yet a final chapter.
By the way Kaido has shown plenty of his moments so far:
I generally find Kaido's attitude with his crewmate satisfying and enjoyable, like when Sasaki said he wished to drink with him and Kaido just going like "yeah okay, let's get in the near room later".
Maybe Page One and Ulti are the children of Captain John.
I think the fact that the higher ups of the Beast Pirates all actually care for Kaido in some capacity despite them always ragging on about how pirates just betray each other will be a big factor to the ending of their story. I could see Kaido just about to get his wish for an epic death granted, when the Tobiroppo and All-Stars butt in and save him last minute.

One Piece Volume 100 promotional poster with Eiichiro Oda drawing chapter 1,010 manuscript!!
Eiichiro Oda: "The story is at the end." (『物語は終盤です。』)
This only counts for women, lol. All of the men clearly age no matter what timeline, although Male-Pattern baldness seems to be linked to stress and not reaching one's dreams in the One Piece world.
edit: Sanji's is the best since he turns into Zeff in his good timeline and Judge in the bad one.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Age 40 bad timeline Robin actually looks like a better version of what age 60 good timeline Robin could be.
This is an example of a 62 year old woman who has good genetics and takes care of herself. Not farfetched.
This is Chopper all over again, the Bad Timeline Robin age 40 looks way more badass than her good counterpart. The age 60 ones is an interesting design too, but it barely feels like robin. For some reason it doesn't feel like that one even fits in One Piece that well, it's a tad too realistic and mundane.
This is an example of a 62 year old woman who has good genetics and takes care of herself. Not farfetched.
Man, she looks great, but she also looks older than she did when she was in her 20s. Everyone ages, some just do so more subtly.
So, regarding the whole old Robin thing. I didn't start the discussion by saying you can't look young at 60. I only wanted to ask what is the problem if someone is visibly old? Why should that be a "bad outcome" in life?
And, also, Oda can create such interesting looks and designs when he doesn't constrain himself with his own ideas of beauty. 40 and 60's "bad future" Robin look kind of amazing. If we remove the cigarette and the cynical look from bad 40's Robin she would look super cool.

Eiichiro Oda Message for Voume 100 !
Volume 100 message from Oda
VOLUME 100
100 books everyone, on one piece bookshelf there'll be 100 books standing!!
Apologies, people who have the whole set are running out of space aren't they! Even though there's other books to put on there too!! I know!! But this is how I personally view this,
"this is the entirety of my life", and when I put it that way… That's all?! A whole grown up man drawing everyday with all he's got for 24 years! What? That's all?!
But, better to let the readers be the judge of the size of my work. How is it for you? Long? Short?
This is a world created from both my wild imagination and yours! The story is in its final stage, and until the day it ends, I'll keep on guiding you guys through this world.
100 books that act as the gateway to a world inhabited by certain pirates, please put them in your room. The adventure is going to get even more exciting! Please also look forward to the numerous campaigns celebrating volume 100, the volume 100 party!!By Etenboby
Special Eiichiro Oda's message for Volume 100!!
People tend to age better when they practice healthy habits and are mentally well.
Yes, genetics tend to be the biggest factor for that, but it doesn't diminish the lesson.
Yeah, that's my goal for myself to get healthier physically and mentally. I do have good genetics where I look young. (I'm 33 but look around 20 (ish).)
I did send it in right after the chapter he came back: wasn't gonna say anything unless something happened.
Yeah, it is great that your Jinbei is in the SBS! I think that is amazing! Congrats! :happy:
【THANK YOU! ONE PIECE100】Animated and edited by Eiichiro Oda!!!

Here's my original letter that my wife translated to send, and her translation of Oda's reply:
R: I have been waiting 10 years for Jinbe to join the Straw Hat crew. I drew this mark because I have always admired him. Please make this Jinbe’s mark!!
O: Ho!! That's so cool!! I really want to use it just the way it is!! But just because there are rules for the skulls the crew, may I arrange it like this?
Let's make it official based on Joshua-kun's mark!!
Wow, thats so cool!! Congrats! And happy birthday too It's almost like a birthday gift from Oda.

Getting into the SBS, having your design immortalized by Oda himself and all of this revealed on your birthday AND in the 100th volume! This is like the highest honour any fan can achieve, congrats Shift
When I saw the mark in the SBS I figured the question was something like "Oda you drew this mark for Jinbei long ago, now that he's officially joined what's his jolly roger look like?" and that your avatar was an Oda design I'd missed from way back. I recall the Strawhats getting re-designs of their jolly rogers after the time skip so that might explain why I thought he'd already drawn one for Jinbei
It's gonna be cool in the coming years when I re-read the series and encounter this SBS again, and I can go "hey I knew this guy on an internet forum"!.

I thought Jimbei’s jolly roger in Shift’s avatar was an official one. Well, I guess now it kinda is.
Congratulations and happy birthday, Shift. Hope you and your family have a good one.
That's pretty damn cool Shift, congrats!
Congratulations Shift!!!!
Happy Birthday!!!!
Oh, yeah - Happy Birthday as well!

Well nobody said it was a problem or a bad outcome. I guess by asking you assumed Oda thought it was? Instead of just asking why can't good timeline actually age and look older in her 40s and 60s.
For w/e reason Oda feels good timeline Robin would barely age in her 40s and 60s. His choice. Don't think its about visibly looking older being bad.

Today's been a very special day as One Piece fan. I got One Piece Volume 100
Actually, I got 3 copies
I started japanese edition in 2007 with Volume 45 (the first one I got) and every 3-4 months I have been buying new Volumes regularly. And this is the result :)
!
Nice pics, redon! Buying 3 copies of volume 100 is more than I expected.:wub:
And thank you for the video in Oda's Interviews thread.
I managed to download it before it got deleted :)
Kaido's club is called Hassaikai ("Eight Commandments" 八斎戒) that forbids Buddhists from killing, drinking alcohol, telling lies, sexual relationship and such for 6 days per month. Sounds like being harsh for someone like Kaido…
BTW, EtenBoby made a insightful tweet about Kaido's flag. I like her keen eye and translation skills about English, Chinese and Japanese :)
I used to believe that this kanji of eight hidden inside Kaido's flag is for his signature move "Thunder Bagua (雷鳴八卦)", now I'm leaning towards the idea that it signifies his club, as it's name also contains eight. (From latest SBS)

Interestingly, I realized that Kaido's commanders all break the commandments one or way the other.
Wonder if it's all coincidence.

That is truly fucking awesome.
Coming soon: the Strawhats are thrown into the Underworld and forced to walk the hellish path of the 6 Realms, symbolically traversing the cycle of Samsara.
Digital cover with that smooth, mapless background
ONE PIECE VOLUME 100 DIGITAL RAW HQ

SBS and extra pages.
Thanks Redon!
Kinda funny the 1000 chapters message ended up on the back cover of this one and not, you know, the volume with the 1000th chapter actually in it. Strange how those things line up sometimes.
Unfortunately, there seems to be at least a few pixels' space missing between the digital covers of volumes 99 and 100 that keeps them from perfectly aligning, even trying to use the bit on the inside cover flap of volume 100 to bridge it. A little disappointing, but I'd kinda suspected it would end up this way. Hopefully after volume 101 is fully revealed we'll get the complete art as well without having to stitch them together ourselves.
Volume 100 is out this wedenesday in France and it will have a 3h dedicated broadcast on the most listened French radio.
It is quite unheard of for a manga.
English cover revealed:
Anyone knows where I can find the translation of this SBS?
HQ front and back from Amazon:
Got today One Piece Vol. 100 "Celebration Edition" by Star Comics from Italy!!

Damn that's cool. I don't love changing the cover right in the middle of the three-part set but when it looks that good…
Wish us English readers could get something a bit more commemorative for the hundredth volume.
