Apart from the discussion about Jimbei:
The marines know that Ruffy is the one messing up ID!
I bet, if his prison break really is a success, he'll get a nice bounty up. :)
Probably not 500mio, but 400 atleast I think.

Dont mean to burst your bubbles but Jimbei IMO isnt a double agent guy…
reasons for that to be true are far exceeding those against it
1.- Sengoku would said what he said it that was true, he has no need to fool anyone in that room by saying things he said
2.- Sengoku isnt exactly telling it to their faces, more like he is talking to himself which further on disregards the theory
3.- What good would it do to fool them…lets say one of the vice admirals hears Jimbei is a doublče agent. He is going to somehow let Ace know?
Also in this 33 hours or so?
4.- Does it look like The "bull" guy is going easy on him and that those wounds are nothing to him?
5. - Doesnt the title of the chapter says all about his character?
6. - Dont words he says with the note in the and says he is a good hearted guy?
7. What makes you think Ace will tell him anything?
8. Even if he goes off asking ace they are kind of short on time arent they...?
9. With the handcuffs all beaten up and so on and on he is kind of a pathetic guard to anyone possessing ability to come down and break into Aces cell...
10. Knowing his past and past that is connected to him , the character he is starting to display fits him well...
So yes he is a double agent…
Its not about if the twist wouldnt be a bad ass move, its about would it even make sense, Oda can write and draw whatever he wants so he can make Jimbei the pirate king, doesnt mean its gona happen...

There we go, all fixed now.
Lol, am I misunderstanding the trans or did Magellan really commented on taking a dump a vicious struggle? If yes, then this character easily is already in my personal top ten. He's like a OP version of Al Bundy. And his men on commenting he did a good job is even better. Please say that I understood that situation correctly.^^
The line is "onaka wo kudashi," which literally means, "to evacuate the stomach."
So yes.
Nah, I still think that he will raise hell when they release Ace. I can totally see a freakin riot starting because of what Luffy is doing.
Hehe. All the Pirates from lvl 5 and above going crazy.
…
Wait a tic... If what they say about there being a lvl 6 is true... Who is worse than Ace and Jinbei?!
Why is everyone assuming Ace and Jinbei are even on level 5? It just says "The floor where 'Fire Fist Ace' is being Kept"
@CCC:
The line is "onaka wo kudashi," which literally means, "to evacuate the stomach."
So yes.
Thanksorz. So yep, Magellan is already awesome for that alone.^^
About Jimbei being spy maybe even Sengoku dont know the plan, you know its to convenient to have Jimbei help along
Remember Sengoku thought hes the most cooperative in thing like this
and i thought fishman who powerful hate human , i like this theory
And so the original 7 is complete
Jimbei's title,海侠, or "侠 of the sea", rather than a simple Yakuza, implies somebody who's kinda like Robinhood, sorta of an outcast or even outlaw, but has his/her own sense of honor and justice, and usually won't hestitate to help people in need. The SHs kinda fits this definition too, though a "侠" would be more actively seeking to help where as the SHs are often dragged/forced into the situation. Someone in the spoilder thread translated it to "The chivalrous one of the sea" and carlosnet has it as "the Knight of the sea", while not 100% accurate, both gives a better idea of the character than just "Yakuza of the sea" IMO. (Aohige mentioned this too I believe, but he translated it so for simplicity, and I feel it needs to be brought up for people to know)
Given that, and his words, we can see that Jimbei is likely the most honorable of the 7 (though we don't know the true intention of Kuma yet, and Mihawk gives off more of a prideful vibe). Truly amazing how Oda can give his character a defining image with a few simple lines (another great example of this is WB and his "no matter what kinda idiot, he's my son once he boards my ship" speech)

Lets review:
**I.
Luffy saves Zoro from Marines, hammers Kuro, hammers Don Krieg and Hammers Arlong and he enters the Grand line with
30.000.000B
100.000.000B
-notions:
His new bounty is bigger then the frozen of Crocodile, he took out one of the "great" 7 his new bounty has a great increase…
III.
This time around Luffy wams the CP9 agents but whats more he infiltrates and demolishes Enies Lobby, he declares "war" on WG and marines and escapes Buster Call...Giving WG reason to set his new bounty to:
300.000.000B
IV
So here we are waiting for the 4th increase and let us review what master luffy has done this time:
Immediately after getting a new bounty he escapes Garp one of the Vice admirals on his new ship which displays difrectly infront of marine eyes that it can basically "fly" (worth to note because I would consider someone with an out of this world ship to be even more dangerous)
He then enters florian triangle and defeats another one of the royal Shichibukai Moria (former bounty 320.000.000B) he was also set to get killed by Kuma (but he is seen living later on (doesnt matter the reason he is leaving after they told Kuma to kill him = escapes another Shichibukai)
Then he comes to Archipelago where he does one thing again "no else" has the curage to...
He hits the Tenyruubito and wamwams the local marines, he does that together with 2SN (not to be ignored that he also joins up with other pirate crews to make rucus)
Then the punishment comes and Admiral with it, he escapes the Admiral...and with it the punishment for hitting a tenryubito (just so we dont forget he takes down one of kuma bots for goodbye)
As Kuma comes to save the day, perhaps this will mean the end of the pest Luffy.
No now he is seen infiltrating ID in attemp to save his bro and so far has wamed some blugori and a beast on second floor destryoing the monitor room on floor 1 and 2...also releasing all prisoners on floor 2 (whether they ll escape or not is not important he opened the door...)
That much is known so far and it is quite likely we ll see some more havoc in ID and with it the possible revalation that yet another Shichibukai Boa Hancock was helping him out, maybe even Jimbei (whats up with this yung fella, its not enough he is causing havoc, it seems he gets the hearts of influential people as he goes)
He ll get a 400.000.000B wanted poster?
Anything bellow 600.000.000B personally for me is a joke**
I LOVE Jimbei's design. He looks like he could've been in Wind Waker or something.
if i wasnt so lazy id start up a OP scanlation website
isn't there enough of them?
Franky House but thats about it. And they do so much stuff already…
every other place treats it as a last priority

Excellent post. I completely agree with you. It's time luffy got a major bounty increase. But about the prisoners at ID, I think Buggy's going to end up taking all the credit. He tells the prisoners to remember his name as the one who saved them. So I guess Buggy's also going to end up with a huge bounty increase.
And about Magellan, I thought he said "That was a furious battle". That was one of the best lines I've read in a long time.
I personally do not think Jimbei is a spy. I see as more like an example, more so to Ace. As far as I can tell, the WG doesn't just want Pirates to die, they want them to lose heart. And by having Jimbei in the same cell, it says "IF you go against us, this is what happens. We don't care if you're a shichibukai, or some other hot shot. You do what we don't like, you're done. No one is going to save you." etc.
So to me its more trying to break not only Jimbei's spirit for revolting, but also for Ace. Just killing someone is not enough, plus sometimes it has ramifications, point in case, Gol D. Roger's execution.

Guards: Something's wrong…!! / We seem to have lost contact with Chief Magellan!! // At any rate, we need to report this to the monitor rooms on all floors, and to Marine HQ, at once!!! // We may not know how this happened or what his objective may be... / But there can be no mistake that the man running around Level Two with Buggy the Clown... // ...is without a doubt... // ...the pirate, "Straw Hat Luffy"!!! // .........We can't seem to establish contact with the Level Two monitor room!!! // ?! // Level Two Monitor Room!!

I assume MHQ will take action right away
^ I think the guards managed to say everything upto "… is without a doubt". But they lost connection just when they mentioned Luffy. I'm waiting for a scan as I'm not sure about this. Because if that happened, then there is still a chance that Luffy won't be found out (atleast for now)

Then Buggy is not long for this world. Best marines and bounty hounters will be hunting him, and he can't even defeat 1 bluegori. New coverstory adventures? If he makes it out of ID ofc.

That'd be humorous. Who knows? Perhaps Buggy's going to assemble a new crew from the prisoners at ID

what i can see from raw it's conversation on main control room the one got disconnected is level 2 monitor room you see one guard holding bounty poster
nice chapter. On the last few pages there was still a monster roaring in level 2… does that mean they're going to have to fight it? I liked level 2 and all, but compared to level 1 it wasn't nearly as creative. I'm just itching to see level 3 because of mr. 2.

! Anything bellow 600.000.000B personally for me is a jokeGood post. Though I will note the government doesn't know Luffy took our Kuro. Buggy they did know about. (Similarly they have no diea abour Ener). A minor detail, but still.
There will definatley be a big increase when this is all said and done, but given that the highest bount thus far in the series is Don Flamingos at 340 mill, it would probably be overkill to inflate Luffy's to 600, despite what all he's done. The huge increase to 300 INCLUDED him officially becoming an enemy of the government, instead of "a pirate who only fights other pirates…for now." Anything he did after that still qualifies as enemy of the state, I don't forsee his bounty doubling the current highest.
Sure, we don't know what the Yonkou or Dragon rate, we don't een know Ace's bounty, but I can't see it going much higher. Blackbeard was given Shichibukai rank for taking out Ace. They were impressed that somebody could take out a high level guy like that.
I know, bounties mean jack for power levels, but Oda does use them as a relative indicator, with caveats. Once they reach the 300 million mark, rookies though they may be, they're too strong for fodder to capture, as seen on Shabondy. Raising his bounty too much higher won't serve any point. The only people capable of taking Luffy down are the higher ups ANYWAY. If top tier assassin Lucchi, and top tier Shichibukai (3 of them now) couldn't do it... who else is? Plus, depending on the reports that Kuma and Kizaru gave...
Sure theres suprise bounty capturing force like Blackbeard, and the other supernovas. There are people at, and above his level. But raising his already super high bounty isn't going to affect the class of people capable, willing or able of going after or capturing him, and they know that. They want him captured MORE now, sure, he's a bigger threat, and they will raise the bounty accordingly. But doubling it at this point? I just dont see it. Especially when a lot of this shit is stuff they want to keep secret.
400,000, 500,000 maybe. Luffy has done some MAJOR stuff no doub. Sheerly punching the tenryubito has likely elevated him to a "MOST WANTED" status, butbowing his already top tier bounty even further? I don't see it happeningg too much. (And even when it does, it won't be till after the warr. government might have bigger concerns or bounties at that point...)
What I think is far more likely is BUGGY getting a huge bounty increase, far above his means and ability to handle.
btw scanlations are already about…(just saw some of you still waiting for them...)
awesome ch.!!!!
a combo of a snake and a chicken?!?!? (i want to see the rest of the beasts)
mr. 3 has join to the theme (cant wait to see more old characters return)
and finally we see jinbei!!!!!
am i the only one who fink that jinbei looks remain me of him:

FINALLY! Original 7 Shichibukai Color Spread!!! IT HAS TO COME!

Yeah its alittle clearer than the script we got in the spoiler thread but it seems the second monitoring room got trashed before they could get their message out to the other monitoriing rooms. That just furthers my belief that before the end he will be discovered because not all the guard monitoring rooms can be this incompetant (it would get old after a while + Luffy still isn't out of floor 2 yet). Probably on the next floor, and if nothing else he WILL be the one blamed for all the ruckus inside Impel Down when those guards eventually come to even if he escapes far before they wake up. The world WILL know before this arc is over that Luffy did what he did. Its only a matter of when now and under what consequence.
Also on a random note, Jimbei actually looks more like that drawing from earlier at jump festa than it seemed he would in the spoiler thread. One of frames we didn't see looks almost exactly like that drawing minus the smile on his face.
From my understanding it is main control room who got visual of Luffy and will contact MHQ and then they try to contact Level 2 monitor room but to no avail
Anyone notice that the very next "Beast of Hell" is about to pounce on Luffy and the others? See the top of page 15, first panel.
Since we've got minotaur and Basilisk, my bet is a Nemean lion, a chimera, or a Manticore.
My take on that which is mearly an opinion is that there is where NW steps in…
How come basically all shichibukai are in first half of the Grandline, with the exception of Mihawk taking a journey we have:
1. Hancock (resident of Amazon Lily, likely not going, hasnt been to NW)
2. Crocodile (very likely not been in NW and basically powering up to go…)
3. Jimbei (not mention to be in NW)
4. Kuma ( Not mention he was in NW also seems to be doing loads of things in first half of GL)
5. Moria ( Mentioned beeing in NW and got his backside handed to him…now powering up to go...)
6. Doflamingo ( Not mentioned beeing in NW but we have seen his subordinates as his buisness residing in first half of GL)
7. Blackbeard ( Was on WB ship so been in NW but under WB protection so far on his own with his crew not exactly...)
8. Mihawk (was in NW visiting Shanks casually...meaning he enters it and leaves it casually)
I just counted the above shichibukai based on their frozen bounty and somewhat we get a strange piramide which adds up. 1 and 2 most probably werent in NW. 3 and 4 no mention of it. 5. Got beaten up in NW and is now powering up before next joureny. 6 not mention. 7 was but not yet on his own and 8 goes there as he chooses…
Now why is the question, why no mention of it and why majorly they are in first part?
My guess from what we know is:
*Shichibukais main purpose besides the balance is to wam wam any newcoming pirates to the GL and to strike fear in them for not taking piracy at all…
*Them being in NW is quite far from the blues and majority of pirates...
*The second reason imo lies within yonkou and the powerful pirates in NW in general.
And here lies the reason how to make Luffys high bounty seem possible.
**- We have yet to learn bounties of some super powerful people!
So…Luffy gets a new bounty coming to NW when we slowly start realising the meaning of numbers...
There may be no reason to increase his bounty high up in first part but god knows what WG+ marines have in second part to deal with those monsters and god knows what kind of number is needed for them to take an interest in someone...
And to add its not only to make someone capture pirates the bounties are given, but also to warn and make known just how much someone is dangerous...
Thats my take on it anyway

Yeah… it looks pretty small though...
are there really only 2 beasts on the entire level?

only 2 shown
and in this chapter they say "the boss is still left" and there's only one monster left that's roaring
guess they'res only 2
a bit underwhelming i suppose
well… i just hope luffy, buggy and mr. 3 do some badass combo next chapter in order to take out the next beast
Spinning Candle Gigant Bullet anyone?

Well they're coming with the CP9 cover story over this week. Though somehow if they sneak in Hancock's snake or a Bananadile, Oda could still get his animal quota for the color.
From my understanding it is main control room who got visual of Luffy and will contact MHQ and then they try to contact Level 2 monitor room but to no avail
Kinda hard to say with the way it transitioned on the RAW + translation (To me it seemed like level 2 monitoring room was talking amongst themselves and they were just about to tell the main room to send out a message to all floors but got cut off before they could say anything… I think that because of the way main monitoring respond to what happened on level 2, it was like they knew nothing was going on at all). Either way he will be discovered and "If" he was discovered by the main room, than we should probably expect some more old friends to rear their heads from Marine HQ. The current that takes them to Impel Down only takes them 30 minutes to get to Ennies Lobby from Marine HQ, considering what little we know of the distance difference it probably should take no longer than 2 hours for help to come aprehend him. They don't want trouble like this on the eve of the war/execution.

If the scanlations are correct Buggy mentions that the entire floor is infested with these monsters. Also imo boss isnt one of these monsters…

What the…? It's over? What a disappointment, I wanted to see who trained the new CP9 generation. We didn't see CP9 interact with any of the residents actually. It's as if Oda grew tired of writing it and ended it abruptly. Even Wapol's story had more of a conclusion. :(

the only one that i think may have not entered the new world is hancock. i personally think crocodile was a rookie member of gold rogers crew and so he has been to the new world. i think the reason crocodile will end up joining the escape party will be because of his old relationship with buggy since they were both rookies on rogers ship. anyways the other guys for sure have been to the new world.

There is still the lion like creature from the first part of this arc (I bet everything we saw at the end of that little introduction is the boss/passage of torture for floors 1-4, there was already the poisonous spiders and spikes). I said it in the spoiler thread but I bet that the boss of the floor is a traditional greek Chimera. The little thing seen at the top of picture I think is just another smaller spliced monster that might just terrorize the jailers with his voice.
I'm sure this has been stated before, but they went 459 chapters between mentioning Jimbei for the first time and actually showing him. Wow.
I think the lion-like monster will be something hilarious. No wait, I KNOW the lion-like monster will be something hilarious :D In oda we trust!
I'm sure this has been stated before, but they went 459 chapters between mentioning Jimbei for the first time and actually showing him. Wow.
Imagine how long it will take between mentioning One Piece and actually showing it. Sorry, couldn't resist. ;)
I wonder who the boss of level 2 is? Probably another powerful creature of legend. The prisoners just saw Luffy take out a Basilisk and yet they're still scared shitless.
As for the bounty discussion. I too expect a huge increase. At this point though I wouldn't put too much stock in Shichibukai bounties. They are frozen bounties afterall. Croc's current bounty if he was still a pirate would've been twice his Shichibukai. Hancock's is only 80 but you have to take into account that was her first bounty and was frozen when she joined the group. Going by her bounty alone it makes it sound like she's weaker than all the SNs. Which is misleading since Sengoku hyped her strength up earlier. Kuma has a bounty lower than Moria but so far what we've seen from Kuma's bounty should be higher since his power's are broken. But all it tells me his bounty was frozen at a lower level than when Moria's was. His current bounty could be double what his Shibukai bounty was. Luffy beat Enel but if he was on the Blue Sea his bounty would've been 500m as stated by Oda.
Remember guys we haven't even hit the new world yet. So it's kinda stupid to think that bounties are already maxed out just because 6 Shichibukai have bounties lower than 340m. They are frozen bounties not current level bounties. Unless Oda drops bounties in the New World we still need a means to guage newer pirates power levels or WG threat assessment of them. Remember before we entered the GL 100m was considered high to us. You really think we reached the ceiling at 340m and their's only going to be slight increases like a small bump to 400m and we're only at the halfway point. Oda still hasn't revealed Mihawk's, Ace's, Dragon's or any of the Yonkou's bounties yet. By the time we reach the middle, of the NW 300m should become the norm or the lower level's. People are making it seem that this will be the last Bounty increase Luffy ever gets. So unless the WG is totally destroyed pre NW and bounties all dropped altogether expect Bounties to go way beyond their current levels to give the SH and Luffy a tier ranking on how much farther they need to go in the NW. Whatever Bounty Luffy gets next will be relative to not the frozen Shichibukai levels but a bounty to what is considered a lower-mid tier NW bounty. With rest of the SH probably getting increases as well to match low tier NW standard bounties. Whatever bounty Luffy gets next is going to be his bounty when he enters the NW. The bounties will get bigger and bigger as he and his crew accomplish more feats in the NW. I mean what fun would it be and what would it say about the NW's hype if Luffy's bounty is already a upper tier NW level when he hasn't even entered it yet.
Bounty Amount: A marine warship
Imagine how long it will take between mentioning One Piece and actually showing it. Sorry, couldn't resist. ;)
I bet 8 bucks One Piece turns out to be something we've already seen in some way, shape, or form.
I already know what one piece is. It's a warm fuzzy feeling. :D
Very interesting chapter. I had a feeling Jinbei wouldn't be a cruel dictator like Arlong. Him being a pacifist is pretty much what I predicted all the way back since the Arlong arc. Go me!

Really, i thought his the same with arlong but not after he refusing to go to war
can someone clarify, are the room who identify Luffy is the same monitor room got destroyed because i don't see giant rinnegan den den that why i believe it different room
After reading Jinbei's words, I think the fishman pirates split up into two groups - those who wanted revenge (like Arlong) and those who wanted justice and peace (like Jinbei).
We already had confirmation that the Pirate of the Sun (Fishman Pirates) split up as a term of Jinbei joining the Shichibukai. Nyon said a few chapters back that the crew split up into several different groups. Yosaku also "skipped over all the battle stuff" when he was talking to Luffy and Sanji, which implies that Arlong and Jinbei disagreed over the matter and likely fought about it. Arlong was more or less forced to find a weaker territory to bully.
Can someone clarify, is the room that identified Luffy the same monitor room that got destroyed?
I was wondering about this myself in the Spoiler Thread. Seeing the raw, it looks like it was a separate room that spotted Luffy, and while they couldn't reach the jailer room for Level 2, they should be able to contact Marine HQ with this information still. If that is so, Luffy has at maximum an hour before he is trapped inside. That would mean this arc is likely (well Impel Down, I mean) to move along at a good and quick pace. If we are wrong, and it turns out it is the same room, then Luffy got lucky this time around.
What the…? It's over? What a disappointment, I wanted to see who trained the new CP9 generation. We didn't see CP9 interact with any of the residents actually. It's as if Oda grew tired of writing it and ended it abruptly. Even Wapol's story had more of a conclusion. :(
But there was a conclusion. Your own personal desire to see the CP# trainer aside, the ex-CP9 left Enies Lobby in fear of Spandam blaming things on them, got themselves all healed up, defeated a pirate crew to save the town, stole their ship since they had to leave and headed out to find their master and train or seek answers. They spectate and watch the training when they arrive only to find Marines chasing them down at the orders of Spandam. They take out the Marines and tell Spandam to STFU and that they will return someday (for revenge). Spandam calls in his dad crying and they begin to plot out the assassination of their former assassins. The ex-CP9 sail off into the distance leaving the foreshadow of their return for revenge and "justice" against the WG. We can presume they are now pirates, as they fought Marines and were "wanted" by Spandam. It's like a sweet irony that these "Absolute Justice" freaks are now criminals in their own right and will likely becoming the "Pirates of Justice" or something. The ex-CP9!! Pirates!! What more would we need for a cover story…?
Bit dissapointed that Jimbei is a good guy. Really wanted him to be the most evil. A racist, violent, crazy-in-the-head monster. But I'm sure Oda will make good use of his chracteristics. Good chapter overall, nothing unexpected really, except Jimbei being introduced during Luffy's mission to save Ace. I thought Jimbei would be shown after it, or later down in the higher levels. Also to have Ace and Jimbei in the same cage… I believe Hancock has some kind of connection with Jimbei... could have a connection with that Tiger Fisher guy... next chapter should be good.
About the 'spy Jinbei' theory… it would be really cool if it happened and we should remember one thing: Sengoku is NOT Jinbei's superior.
The Shichibukai are not part of the Marine, they work for the WG (and Kuma made it pretty clear when Kizaru questioned him). So, if the WG is suspicious of treators, maybe they would not let the Marine know about Jinbei.
Or not...
