Yay, I can post :D! Man this chapter/Blackbeard totally rules the universe. Ace got owned, but not COMPLETLY owned, showing that Ace is still really strong. I wonder what happened to Ace, did he die or not? BB's fight against Luffy is gonna be intense. Thank you for the great raw Battle Franky!
Throughout this month, we will be testing new features (like search) so you may experience some hiccups from time to time. We'll try to not be too disruptive...
Chapter 441 "Duel on Barona Island" Discussion
-
-
well the only thing seperating BB from a schichibukai position is time,like franky joining,since ace's bounty propably is bigger than luffy's or if it isn't it's at least bigger than 100mil berry
also he is far more worthy of this position than crocodile who he would pawn easily
i would like to see garp's and dragon's reaction though i hope oda shows us that the time BB tries to finish ace off dragon appears and saves the day!!!
and i am fully disappointed in ace,i thought he would lose but not that easily
at least we might see an ace flashback (childhood years and the way he got his fruit and met WB)
poor ace
-
Thanks for the chapter!
-
Oh yeah, also, if the major event IS a pirate war, it is a perfect time for the Strawhats to go to Mermen island. I was wondering what kind of thing Oda will pull to make Mermen island as long as Water 7/Alabasta, and the war affecting underwater might be it. Either that, or the war has NO effect on Mermen island, and something else happens. Both have the chances to be epic.
-
Why is no one talking about the cover page? Poor space pirate; he simply has no idea what kind of person he's attacking.
And Blackbeard is just like Kirby, heheh… Anyway, do you think the next chapter will continue with this flashback or return to present and dealing with the SH Pirates as they continue their quest?
-
Ding Dong Asce IS DEAD!
-
Notice how Lafite is whistling a tune cheerfully while running away? It's so great to see those tiny details that Oda draws.
-
Thanks Battle Franky
-
So I'm guessing next chapter we get back to the Strawhat adventures. Which means it's Jinbei time.
As for this chap, best fight in OP in a good while. The art was excellent and BB's powers were just great. Good to see Ace putting up a fight and not getting totally owned like we initially thought.
-
That Lafitte, always so carefree and cheerful. I admire his positive attitude, seriously.
-
Blackbeard: Ha… Ha.. I already told you…!! Everything gets dragged away into darkness… whether it’s bullets, swords, impact, fire or even thunder..!!
"impact?"
-
That Lafitte, always so carefree and cheerful.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that he is gay.

Makes ya wonder why West Blue exiled such a fellow, don't it?
-
Maybe the Strawhats will go to Merman island and be there while the war starts. They'd know nothing about it, but then when they move on the news about Ace and the war will reach them and when they get involved in it it'll already be going on for a while so they jump into action right away.
And I really wanna see WB get real pissed, and most of all I wanna see the look on Sengoku's face when hundreds of attack ready Pirateships turn up infront of his doorsteps.
-
Wow thanks for the chapter BF.
Has anyone said anything about Lafite yet? He has Soru lines behind him again, while running from BBs attack.
-
Blackbeard: Ha… Ha.. I already told you…!! Everything gets dragged away into darkness… whether it’s bullets, swords, impact, fire or even thunder..!!
"impact?"
I repeat..impact dial?
-
Awesome chapter. Going to read right now. I think it's time for a new av and a sig
-
impact = punch/kick etc…hmmm his power seems really cheap to me...but Im sure WB, shanks etc will have equally ridiculous powers
I think this chapter also settles that Akoiji is alot more powerful than ace...ut then I knew it anyway.
Anyway, I think we will learn in the future that there are certain boundaries and weakness to BB power. Even ones that he hasnt forseen
peace
-
That was an awesome chapter. Too bad we'll probably have to wait two years to see the consequences of the fight.
-
Indeed, the wait till the Pirate War is gonna be excruciating for me. I'm sure Oda will find a way to keep my mind off of it.
2 years to go….......sighAnyways, next chapter is probably back to the Strawhats. I hope they are already at the triangle so we can skip the traveling and get straight to it.
-
again showing the chapters with zero SH's somehow turn out to be the most awsome ones.
and that last page is made of SO MUCH WIN!
-
Yeah, Ace got owned. Bad. Blackbeard has moved up a tier on the badassery list. Blackbeard's power is kind of like a massive reject dial, eh?
On another note, did anyone notice the Saul/Little Robin action figure? It's a must have.
-

We'll probably have to wait a whole arc till anything about the war even starts developing…............ 2 years sound about right
-
That was a great chapter! Too bad that Ace lost. Hopefully next chapter will cover up the Shanks/Whitebeard duel.
-
WOW! I just wanna give tribute to the most badass character thru One Piece yet, name is Portgas D. Ace.
That is one freakin' cool guy, to be able to smile thru battle and stand for his principles. Man, to be honest he looks like shanks without the frickles.
Anyway, for Ace to die would move the plot forward and would make Luffy go thru the whole sad shit that almost everyone in his crew gone thru.
TRIBUTE TO PORTGAS D. ACE YET AGAIN
-
I don't udnerstand one thing… Ace only takes one punch and was lying on the ground in the last panels...
-
he takes alot more than One Punch read through it again
-
I think we will be waiting a little less than 2 years ( if Oda wants to answer it after next arc). I believe that Strawhats will enter New World in chapter 500.
Anyone else think that space pirate's clothing could be made of rubber and Enel's attack won't affect him.
-

Yeah he got more than that as someone said, he got a good hit on the neck. Not enough with that the first he gave was a really good one, because Ace was off guard, so he took a pretty powerfull punch there.
-

Sorry I read it 5 times now and I only see this one punch…

What war? I didn't see anything about a war there.
-
2 things to make abundandtly clear:
-
Although Ace's hat falling gives the impression he has lost we don't know yet. It may not be in the next chapter, or next 10 chapters, but nothing is for certain. I think Ace still has a chance. He definitely won't die, knowing Oda.
-
This fight was awesome. I never thought the whole Ki-powerball thing could be done so well, but it is. Can't wait to see what the great event triggered is gonna be! (All Out War against Pirates/Revolutionaries?)
-
-
-
Thanks BF for this great chapter (again)
That was a great chapter! Too bad that Ace lost. Hopefully next chapter will cover up the Shanks/Whitebeard duel.
It's maybe a draw game. We haven't seen him dead for the moment. There is still hope. (but yes it's true that I don't really believe in an Ace's victory).
-
No offence but, isnt the island named "Banaro" instead of "Barona" ?

I think that very much indicates that he lost, I think BB overdid it…. by killing Ace. That would explain why he didnt go after Luffy after this fight. He got a muuuuch better prey than Luffy to show off. He got Luffys older brother, Portgas D. Ace, second division commander of the White Beards.
With that he should be able to join the Shichibukai and WITH THAT WB 's crew and Shanks's crew should want to go to war against WG! (That makes this the trigger for an all out war between Pirates & WG)
-
-
Why would all the Pirates want to go to war over Ace??????
I know the Whitebeard pirates are going to go to war, if Ace lost and the WG has him. Or Whitebeard going after BB.
Why would the other yokou care if one of Whitebeards men has fallen.
-
It is explained somewhere in these forums.
-
@AD-HD:

You mean Oda explains it in the chapter????:wassat:
Now if the power shifts in the WG favor. I can see a big War but not over Ace.
-

No. Somebody maked a good theory and it makes sense. Go read 441 spoiler discussion. You find it there.

A chain effect, if all the Shichibukai and WG go to war in the New World, how do you think they would react? Maybe there are other reasons as well I don't know, but i DON'T think that pirates will unite (maybe some). Just that all we go to war, because the other two parties will and half of the yonkous.

I know, but why would the WG go to war when the Yonkou are still strong.
The sHichibukai are the only power that has lost power. (croc)
and just gained some power Blackbeard.The balance is back, Why would the WG risk going to war.
-
Anyone else notice that this huge duel happened at a Western setting?
-
yep a true showdown.
neway the theory I have
is the revenge at the end is Whitebeards and maybe Shanks against BB, whic then the government to balance it sends people to help BB. starting the war (I posted this in the spoiler thread but not that the chapter is out.)

okay, I'm not gonna go over all the details of the war theory, but this things are pretty certain:
BB will get his position as a Shichibukai
WB will attack BB, and therefore attack the WG
Luffy will do the same thing
Dragon and Garp are involved in some way
Shanks is involved in some way tooIt won't be every Pirate but we have some pretty interesting people who are involved in the whole thing, and those people have many very interesting and big people who follow them. Especially Dragon and WB. Such a grandscale battle will involve other groups too, so there you have it.
-
If that happens… Man it will be cool.
Total mass destruction. -

Oh I dig what your saying.
-
I love the fact that Oda maintained some sense of humor when Ace attempted to immolate Blackbeard.
-
There was a topic a few months ago about the Strawhats versus Blackbeard Pirates. In it I commented that I wasn't really looking forward to that battle as BB wasn't that exciting a character to me. I now humbly retract that statement and say that BB is among my favorite villians now
Thanks for the chapter!
-
THX For the Chapter BF!!!
Anyway, stg is on my mind. Do you remember the piece of paper that Ace gave to Luffy before parting in Alabasta saying that they can meet again in the summit? What if Ace is dead, does this paper good for indicating stg? :OO
