a defense system sounds interesting
Soldier Dock System
-
-
My guess is…
SUPER DUPER ULTRA SHIP TRANSFORMATION JUTSU! Basically transforming the ship into a warship, specifically Battle Franky!
Yeah....so what if its predictable?
-
I already called the mode shift thingy…... normal mode and battle mode....... hoping it's really like that, because it would really be very kewl!!!
-
When I first heard the term, I thought of those arm-chain thingies that the Foxy ship used to surround Going Merry (just before the Davy Back Fight) … But then I got to thinking : "Since we're already seen something like that, it wouldn't be a "big amazing invention." It would be odd if Foxy's crew had the technology before Franky did.
So now I'm going with the giant robot idea -- that two big mechanical hands (a la Doctor Seuss) come out of the hull and pull the boat onto land. Then, two big feet do the same thing at the stern so the ship can (literally) crawl into port.
Soldier? Not sure how that fits into it, but if those hands and feet could do some basic defense moves (like Holi, the dog) then that would be fun!

Since Franky calls his invention the Soldier Dock System the best part of the ship I'm going to guess that it is significant to his own desire for the ship. Since Franky was traumatized by Spandam using his own ships against the people he loved, I'm thinking that the Soldier Dock System somehow protects the ship from unauthorized access. A system that will not allow history to repeat itself in any way.
To Franky that would be perfect a ship that you can lock up and leave at dock and it will protect itself as if it were its own soldier. Who knows those masts might be able to telescope down into the ship and then something else closes off the deck.
This is the best post in the entire thread.

Call me crazy but I always got the impression, seeing as how their crew lacks numbers and Franky has a background in robots (well cyborg…but same thing...maybe), it might be some automated robots or something (obviously not as strong as the crew) that they could use to defend their ship or scout or something. Or maybe ive been watching too much star wars....

Okay, let's break it down:
Soldier: An individual who fights for or defends against a person, place, country or cause.
Dock (as a verb): To park a ship or spaceship and disembark from it.
System: A method or machine of various operations.
So, therefore, we can conclude that the Soldier Dock System is very simply a method to guard against intruders while the ship is parked at a dock.

Okay, let's break it down:
Yes, that's essentially it, but we still don't know HOW the S.D.System will accomplish that goal, and that's the fun part.
Keep guessing everyone! :)

I actually really like that idea…. When I first saw the ship I thought it was still too round to be a brig (which has a much longer, sleeker, modern-day sail boat look). So I thought wouldn't it be cool if it can sort of transform, go into "battle mode" or something that would change the shape of the ship.
Yep I always dream how such feature for the SHs ship, since I saw the Baratie. Well, if that's the case, Sanji will love it for sure :p.
-
Ok. It's a harem for the guys.

The soldier dock system is basically this….
Ever seen how soldiers behave on the docks when they get off ship???
It's an unfolding love ramp for the misbehaved.

I dont know if this has been mentioned but, shouldnt it be 'solar dock system'? I dont want to bash in on anyone but it said so in the spoilers that it was 'solar'. I cant quote it but here it is "Franky: …of course, my super design met the requirements of everyone! Did you see my invention the "solar dry dock system?"
Oh well...whatever
-
ソルジャー directly romanizes to Sorujyaa, which can be adapted into Soldier, NOT Solar. The katakana for Solar would be closer to ソーラ.
-
All speculation over what this is, is welcome here.
Obviously there's the obvious, hangar type thing but i doubt it's just that.
Obviously it's something that collects solar energy to power the ship, which is why it's called what it is, too.

The ship runs on cola, according to Franky.
Soldier Dock system is probably just an alarm system.
-
No way in hell is the "soldier dock" or "solar dock" just an alarm system. That would blow like mexico, in my opinion.
I think just that coup de bust thing is cola powered. Between the name and the grass on the deck, and the "sunflower" jokes about the head, I'm certain that it has to do with being solar powered. There's just too much stuff related to the sun here.

That would be nice, but we already explained that the katakana reads SOLDIER, not SOLAR. It's some kind of security system to prevent what happened with Shura, Mr 2, And Bellamy from happening again.

Yeah I know it´s a long silent thread but I´ve just felt like posting it and this is the place to go.
There´s still one more channel in the SDS to be filled with something and I was wondering what it might be. Since we have paddles for the mother ship, slow and fast vehicles to move on water and one underwater would it be that far fetched to expect that there might also be a flying vehicle like a little helicopter?
I mean we´ve seen a flying arc so its not impossible in the OP world to create a little flying vehicle. Could also be some sort of wind glider with a little burst engine. Don´t know just thinking out loud. I think that it is a possibility.
-
didnt franky say the last one was empty for now to be filled later?
Edit: ah missunderstood =P
-
Err, yes he did. My post was to speculate as to with what it could be filled later.

I'd go with something special from Gyojin Island, to have this badass surprise effect on strangers who see it. Gotta love that crap every time it happens. :D
It could also be something not so important, for example, at a pinch he suddenly pulls the remaining slot which solves the problem, then add "Me and Usopp worked on it!" or something like that.. eh. It happened before.
