They weren't talking about One Piece the were talking about the void century and the Will of the D. It's a possibility that even Rayliegh doesn't even know the location of One Piece.
Chapter 507 "Kizaru's Landing" Discussion

The axeman is of course Sentoumaru, the next opponent of the SH.

OK, that colourspread that shows Luffy and co. with the text 'Declaration of War' at the bottom….that's the lamest/dumbest thing Oda has done thus far.
Funny how opinions differ. I think it's the perhaps best one yet. Actually I don't even care for Color Spreads but this one I really like.^^

Read the translation…find it interesting that both Robin and Luffy don't want Rayleigh to reveal the truth on the Blank Century or One Piece, either due to surprise or due to "drawing their own conclusions". And somehow Kizaru just seems to be "the admiral with all the problems" compared to the laid-back Aokiji and the "destroy at all costs" Akainu. Oh...and somehow I'm now interested in Apoo's interest in intercepting Kizaru...

anybody to join the colourspread? i'm not very good at it and gotta use my company's A3 color printer sometimes.

Lol yeah, Apoo's short statement finally made his character a bit three dimensional. Nice personality trait to get enjoyment out of this situation.
And yeah, seems like Borsalino's personal touch amongst the Admirals could be that nothing proceeds smoothly as planned.
-
This chapter makes it more likely that Shanks knows where One Piece is, and what it actually is. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it also almost proves that the Will of D has a strong connection with the void century.
I was hoping to see more of Kidd & Law vs Kuma. But this chapter was once again amazing. This arc has been brilliant.
-
Wow… Kizaru has a distict personality when I read the English translation. He's reckless when he gets a tiny bit upset. His face is really priceless after he saw the damage he did.
Edit: Capone also seem to hint he has an ability that involves heavy weaponry of some sort. I could see how this arc may end up. We'll be seeing the rookies departing in the same place at the same time. It would be something.
Also, 3 Days is a long time in One Piece....

luffy and robin dont like spoilers but we do, if only raleigh can spoiler tag it.
-
I can understand Luffy and Robin's desire to not get spoiled, but I thought that was a pretty cruel tease on Oda's part.
I wonder if there was some significance to that flash of light coming from Kizaru's foot…

Only way I could see it without being "Eneru ripoff" is if somehow Kizaru has a "Static Fruit"…though I hope Oda surprises.

In the spoiler thread there was some talk about Capone cutting his coating short (which conflicted with earlier statements about it being finished)…
But reading the carlos net translation I can't find any mention about it anywhere.Was it a misstranslation of the spoiler or the spoiler providing messing with us?
-
I just read the chapter thanks to HF.Kizaru's appearance as well as his kick is awesome XD.Apoo NOOOOO!Don't get cocky…especially against an admiral...don't die on me just yet.Hawkins looks pretty calm,hoping to see him in action.I'm glad Rayleigh didn't reveal anything too important like the blank centuary and One Piece.
Another classic colourspread and chapter.Thank you Oda. -

Great chapter. But… seriously, Kizaru's power is ridiculous, and I thought he was supposed to be weaker than Aokiji. Then again, Aokiji did freeze about a mile-long stretch of water, so...
And yeah, his design is too realistic for One Piece. In contrast with the cartoony characters, he looks kind of... well, ridiculous.
I kind of expected Oda to have Luffy refuse to hear about the treasure. What's an adventure if you know all about the treasure? Not an adventure, that's for sure. And Robin, too, I expected nothing less. Oda will reveal the secrets when he's ready.
Bonney's power is amusing, to say the least. As for Capone's, best guess is that he has an ability that hardens his skin like a tank (Playing off his crew's name, the Firetank Pirates). Or as a friend suggested, he could have the power to create clone images. Hawkins? Well, they call him the magician... maybe he's like Hexagon Shobiru, maybe?
My guess is that Sentoumaru and the Axe Guy are one in the same, but I'm not sure if he's the one standing in everyone's way. Probably, though. That foot doesn't look like Kuma's.
-
I know kizaru is based after taka…that japanese actor, but i somehow get the imagination of a bad 70's us crime show of him (much like starsky & hutch or the 'sabotage' video of the beastie boys), which is absolutely cool.
Just as his kinda absentminded style...what a awesome character. :J
-
Kizaru looks hella awesome. One of the best designs, ever.
-
It was another spoiler entirely.
So it was a second (fake) spoiler? Which no one bothered commenting on being fake?

@Rafa:
A curious data. A Borsalino is a type of hat (Giuseppe Borsalino, 1857).
typical for Mafia. Also the striped suit of kizaru is typical too.
Capone Gang Bege, also obviusly .
Sorry for my bad English
Really love Bonney abilities but a bit disappointed by the end. Was expecting too much i think
Only a part of mafia was wearing this rabbit hat and the striped suit . The french mafia(from Marseilles/corsica) from 1920 to 1940 in France, Italy and north africa specialised in prostitution,casinos, kidnapping,assasinates and sports events like boxing. They were know to be the firsts gangs heavily armored and with the best military weapons of their time.
Also the French connection established in south america and Usa (60's/70's) specialised in opium importation and transformation was wearing them to notice they weren't italians/sicilians
Thats also the hat of indiana Jones
There was a movie called "Borsalino"(1970) with alain Delon with the same color striped suit and glasses which was a hit in Japan. Delon is seen as a God overthere specially for girls
By extension the name Borsalino was also given to all striped style wearings and a camembert cartridge magazine's Thomson machinegun used by US gangs and police 10 years after the frenchies mafia. Us navy & marines used the 1928 model
The 1921 modelKisaru abilities might have something with fired weapons. It looks he have kick a cannon bullet with his foot
-
So it was a second (fake) spoiler? Which no one bothered commenting on being fake?
It was posted by someone else who thought it may have went with that initial spoiler. OP I'm sure has a lot of fake spoilers, it's merely a matter of posting the right one. And some people did comment on due to it being odd that it contradicted something in the last chapter.
-
Two things I noticed:
–-When Kizaru was shot, it didn't go through. There is smoke coming from the point the bullet hit.
---Am I the only one who sees the resemblance in Kizarus kick and Kumas beam ? Look at his foot before the blast, there is this X. The same thing apeared when Kuma used his beam in TB.

Yeah, with the exception of the 'circle' around Kuma's beams. Both the cross-shaped 'charge', some of the sound effects that go with it, and the explosion type are the exact same.
-
I wonder if there was some significance to that flash of light coming from Kizaru's foot…
Nah it doesn't have any significance. :ermm: I'm sure the mangrove exploded by itself in the next panel. Screw what Borsalino says about that being his doing. :getlost:
-
i found Kizaru's mannerisms to be a bit peculiar. I know this happens all the time in one piece (and is very refreshing), but his speech seemed a bit odd. perhaps it has a correlation with his DF ability?
Can't wait to see what Hawkings, Apoo, and Capone bring to the table. weither or not they are just fodder for Kizaru.
-
A pretty good chapter. I was somewhat disappointed by the end though. Himajin said he wasn't gonna post the end and that made me think something epic was gonna happen but he actually did post the end. Why'd he mess with us? Anyway, it was still a great chapter. I wonder what the SHs will do for 3 whole days? Didn't Thriller Bark happen in the course of 1 day/night? What's Oda gonna do?

sorry but i think it's the best colorspread he's ever done. somebody with bouncing boobs in his avatar has no right to call anything dumb or lame in my book.
My av is meant as a joke. The colourspread is actually nice, what I meant was sticking 'Declaration of War' line in it. That's freaking stupid.
-
I'm quite pleased with kizaru's design, i sooo hope the voice fits the way he looks. Pretty much the admirals shown to us, ao kiji and now kizaru have a sort of dopey look, it makes you think they arent that serious at all and you underestimate them. (this is purely looks, once you hear the name its sure to invoke fear lol.)
With kizaru's abiliy i'm leaning more towards a light based ability and hes a logia too, the only way a bullet could go through his head. In the scan the pirate clearly says "didnt i just hit him? It went straight through his head?!" or something close to that which means hes a logia user. Kind of explains his instant speed that has a pika sound effect, and i dont think soru has the same sound effect.
One thing i can say is i orginally throught all the admirals had logia abilities similar to their nick names, Ao kiji with his ice, the yellow would be a light logia, the red one has me confused though since ace already has the fire logia. I think the last admiral is gonna have some crazy ass ability. Omg i cant wait to see that nutty hat he wears, btw has anyone searched to try and find out the type it is?
btw does anyone else think 3 days is pretty long, if oda doesnt do skipping a few hours or days this is gonna be a battle filled arc for everyone, 3 days in OP world is almost as long as water 7 and longer then enies lobby i believe.
-
kizaru looks like one strong kicker hint hint
i wonder if the last is a swordsman
well luffy surprised me a bit with his words n it was great
i like the spliting up of the crew n this new arrival must be the admirals second in command
i also predict that Zoro will meet kuma again
n the crew will be shocked when they arrive in fishman island that Zoro defeated him without tell anyone which would be good to seekizaru isn't even gonna fight hawkins unless hawkins starts the fight so i think hawkins was right

It's Engrish used for Dramatic Effect. All manga-ka do it. In fact, every freaking Bleach Chapter title has some bizarre Engrish title.
Speaking of Bleach, as for the Robin - Underwear thing, it's not the first time a Manga-ka has snuck that in:

not bad
though the "I dont wanna know anything before hand" is geting kind of old.
Also-anyone have a link to a raw or the chineese scan?Id need that pic of Kizaru with the shit eating grin,but thats the only one realy messed up for some reason.

yeah, I caught that one on page 11, and then I then I found the next best thing was some half eaten pizza on page 18 :silly:
-
Natsu – thanks for explaining Himajin's comments about "the end". And here I thought he was talking about something other than an ASCII seal. Ah well ... I won't make that mistake again! (But I still stand by what I said in the spoiler thread about preferring spoilers that don't spoil all the surprises of a chapter)
And thanks to Jewelery and the other person (sorry, I've forgotten your name) who gave us more detailed explanations of the Borsalino and of the mafia's activities.
And now I wanna see Bonney vs Chibi-Straw hats as mentioned before, or super elderly straw hats could be interesting, too.
Either option is bound to be fun – I hope you're right. I also can't help but thinking that Oda was again inspired by Yellow Submarine: specifically the section before and after the song "When I'm 64" when the Beatles accidentally turn back (and forward) the hands of time.
"Oh no! We've become senile delinquents! ..."
"I want me mum!"
etc ...Great stuff.
BUT he should have at least debunked Usopp's conclusion that One Piece is on Raftel.
How do we know that it needs debunking, Tarek?
We haven't been given conclusive proof either way yet.
We're as clueless as Usopp. (and I say that not as an insult to Usopp)Great chapter. The part that interested me most, was the bit where they discuss the Void century. The information is within her grasp..but she'd rather go to the end of the world to find herself.
That part interested me most, too. My interpretation of her reaction is that she realizes the wisdom of what he is saying, and decides it's best to wait until she's ready – mentally, developmentally, experientially, etc -- for that information. Rayleigh seems to be implying: "Your crew couldn't handle that knowledge right now" or "Your crew wouldn't know what to do with that knowledge right now" or "Your crew wouldn't have the resources or allegiances necessary to do something about it now" or "Knowing it now would put your crew in too much danger, and would jeopardize your chances of getting there" -- or probably some combination of all of these, plus a few more that I haven't thought of.
Luffy really showin his worth as a Pirate. He doesn't wanna know if OP exists…its part of the excitement of not knowing...but settin off and finding.
Yes, for him, the journey is as important as the treasure at the end of it – maybe even moreso -- and that by skipping to the end, he'll miss all the excitement and anticipation and adventure that typically occurs in the middle. (heheheh -- kind of like what I said at the beginning of this post about spoilers, now that I think about it...)
;)I can understand Luffy and Robin's desire to not get spoiled, but I thought that was a pretty cruel tease on Oda's part.
I don't think of it as a tease, so much as I think of it as Oda's way of reminding us why the Mugiwara are traveling the Grand Line, and how much their motivations differ from the others who are doing the same.
It would have been more of a tease if on page 18, Usopp said "Is it really on the final island?" and then we skipped to the other things for several chapters, and then finally, about chapter 515 or so returned to Luffy saying: "Usopp, Nooo! We are not asking him!"
@Fire Fist:
What's an adventure if you know all about the treasure? Not an adventure, that's for sure.
Word.
Oda will reveal the secrets when he's ready.
And when the Mugiwara are, too – presumably.

so who was the guy that landed b4 the SHP
who is kizaru subordinate that he's looking for
why the hell is kizaru flying around that fast. -
Brook have the revival fruit but kisaru can have the no dying one.An immortal with some enhanced cp9 technics?
Nick Venturi called "the Immortal" just died in april 2008 in his bed at 87 years.He was the symbol of the borsalino years and the only survivor. He was known to survive to machinegun bursts trap several time in his mafia life whith all his teamates dying around him. He also specialised in vendettas with 2 bigs ones of 40 and 30 corpses. He get war cross for his resistance activies in wwII with more than an hundred nazi officers assassinates by his men.
This way he gets strong connections with french high placed politics from secret services to the prime minister(he was said to be his personal holster). Us government which etablished he was the boss of french connection just ask him and his brother to leave their country in 1964 without arresting him for no troubles. So he earn a new surname "Il commandante" in the mafia
At his private burying funeral there was 300 people all were actuals stars and politics from the lasts 30 years. Crime pays well… -
Davy Jones ate the immortal fruit, that's why he still lives, under the sea… in a pineapple.
/spongebob
Many people have noted the Pika sound he makes, and whenever he moves, it looks like he becomes blurry or refracts (and I'm pretty sure it's not the quality of the scan). Plus, because the sun is yellow, people generally associate light with the color yellow, so it would fit him to have the Pika Pika no Mi.

oh yea have forgotten davy jones hihi
I just found a popular japan rock band called "The Yellow monkey" and the vocalist wear the same suit than kisaru on their album from this year. Too much of a coincidence for not oda not listening their songs

Amazing chapter, after reading it.
1.
The first interesting thing for me was, Robin asking what the will of D. is and then connecting it with the void century…
Its somewhat strange and after all we have been told here, I am starting to think, that the will of D has a connection, with what Silvers later on said: He had the power to hear! The voice of all things…2.
Silvers doesnt tell them anything about the void history…
That isnt exactly true! He does tell Robin, that even if he was to tell them, she wouldnt be able to do a thing, or would even see it diffrent as they did...that may imply to the truth being smth nasty, shocking, smth that once you realise it makes you wana do smth, but you have to be strong enough to be able to do anything about it.3. There is a bit that bothered me kind of…
When Luffy "stopped" Usopp! You could get what he was trying to say to him, but then he added...that he ll quit being a pirate if Silvers tells something, cause for him, then the journey would be boring.
Knowing, that there are tones of ppl ahead of them, who know loads of stuff, is it really all about knowing what one piece is....? What happens if some "bambus" from Marines, or some, "cactus" pirate tells them about it. He ll disband the crew, because he ll tell him One piece is a piece of junk, doesnt exist or worse is smth really amazing and infact is on the last island...??? Then it will stop being fun??? Then it will lost meaning?
Idk what was it...Luffy poor phrasing, bad scanlation, or just the fact that he sees it like that, but that part for me kind of sucked, or to phrase it better...
Was a bit disapointed that Luffy sees it as such.4.
The guy with most freedom in this whole ocean is the Pirate King… Here he says it, for anyone who ll later on wonder, what it takes to be a PK. For Luffy thats to be Free…now no doubt that was methaphorically spoken, cause otherwise lets face it, he wouldnt need to sail the grand line as he does to achieve freedom...
Perhaps doing whatever he wants , going wherever he wants , he realises, that to be able to do that, he basically has to be the strongest guy in town and all of that and more equals to Pirate King.
I at least imagine it like that for now.5.
So three days more…now thats a period...Small "island" full of enemies and they have to last for three days "unnoticed" not a chance imo and we see it soon thats how it will be.
The only question that presents itself is how to survive for 3 days and avoid enemies that could eventually beat them up.
IMO here the WB vs Schichibukai war will come in place...Kizaru that could kick their ass and the likes of him will be called back, cause smth went wrong or smth similar.
If it wont go down like that, I am really interested in how in hell will they avoid ppl who can potentially own them for that period.6.
We can see they ll be shoping some more and get some fancy gear which should be interesting to see, especially as it would indicate and give bits and pieces of intel about FI.7.
Laughed at Brookes comment its a diffrent kind of skull joke and that one I liked.
I think, I ll just play dead! LoL8.
Kizaru"s ability really does resemble Rokushiki for what we have seen so far but naturally we have seen to little to be sure about anything.9.
Apoo may even end up double fight Kizaru if he ll start a fight with hawkings if you go by his comments but then he did state earlier he just want to see stuff and not to miss on the cool action so to speak…10.
Bonney is having a blast as well and will be interesting to see how her ability works and what she has to do in order to make someone young, old…are the consequences permanent and so on...11.
Capone…practically all write him off as a fodder we all saw him on the sea already with his ship signed for doom...
Now we see he is still on the archipalago not only that but he has smth interesting in his sleeve so we aint done watching him untill he shows his aces to say the least...which imo is an awsome thing and one of the major surprises for me in this chapter. The dude unlike before looks a badass now...12.
Hawkings…well he is the most mysterious SN for me anyway so I am dying to see whats the thing with him always acting like some prophet and when Kizaru is coming towards you and you start jumbling that mambo jambo stuff again that ought to quite convince you that the guy is confident in his ability and something tells me there is more then just his "cristal ball"13.
lol at Luffy and him seeing party after its known they are in some big poo asap…
Amusement park right hehe...
But I like the fact 9 of them are together...whoever is in their way in this moment I think they should be fine... the 3 days sand clock has just started to tick.
Mada mada dane in whatever case!Those are my opinions, love reading yours about such an amazing chapter I hope you enjoyed it half as much as I did and naturally looking forward to tues-wednesday spoilers…

okay,"elderly strawhats"-preferabely"elderly robin/nami" does NOT equal a good idea.It equals nightmares.

If Shakky can be in her 60's and still look like she does, I'm sure Robin and Nami can manage to look good into their old age.

I laughed at Brook saying he'll play dead too. Funniest line in the chapter.

@Fire Fist:

That should put VA Crane at an age of about 140 (+/-20) years.
