Not really :P are you being sarcastic?
u can use luffy for leverage for capturing dragon
mhh, don`t know if dragon would sacrifice his dreams for luffy to rescue him.
i mean he sure is connected to luffy(seeing that he always looks to the east) but to go in an obvious trap like that..
Still, Garp wanted Ace and Luffy to become upstanding marines. But that would face the same parentage problems so that might not have been an issue but perhaps Garp just left them with Dadan and the mountain bandits to toughen them up some more. In line with how he treated Luffy in the first place (throwing him in the forest and stuff).
Despite how they act towards each other I'm sure Garp and Sengoku are tight and being that he's the highest ranked marine period, I'm sure he'd make an exception. All Garp really had to do was raise them up right and bam, that would have been the end of that story.

even when theyre friends i don
t think sengoku would have tolerated that ace would still be alive.
luffy could have been an exeption for sengoku cause he`s rly related with garp but in the end i think garp decided that it would be better to leave luffy in a place nobody knows about and where he and ace could be togeather..i mean garp knew how hard it is for ace and so i think he just wanted that even ace could have a friend.
This chapter got me thinking a bit. What relationship could Mayor Whoopslap possibly have to Dadan? There's got to be some reason for him to ask "Does Dadan know about this," as if Dadan actually cares, and Whoopslap knows about it.
Is there a scanlation out that does not use Aohige's script?

Onemanga has a version online, don't know if it uses Aohige's though.
i want both jembei and hankcock to join the crew after this flashback
I want Hancock to get preggo from Luffy, but i don't want her to join, cause the way she'd hang onto Luffy would get quite annoying.
Fuck the SHs, people who are bitching not seeing them for a while are making me hate them. You people love typical shit.
anyways, a very cool chapter, kid Luffy is the cutest kid ever :wub:

I believe once the flashbacks are over, it will be shown that Dadan begins to actually view Ace and Luffy as her children and comes to care about them but may be one of those people who has a peculiar way of showing it..
Ace mentioned her right before he died, so he definitely has a high level of respect, although he may have not even realized it until he was about to die.

Ace've changed since his meeting with Luffy, probably because of Sabo's death. I don't see why wouldn't Dadan change during the past 10 years.

I don't.
I don't want any ambiguity as to who the strongest member of the crew is. If Jimbei and/or Hancock were to join, Luffy would not be the strongest member of the crew.

I can understand how some could be frustrated with the crew not being back together again.
However, people have to understand this is the only place where an Ace flashback would work. It would be odd to have an Ace and Luffy flashback long after Ace's death, it has to be done right now.
As far as this chapter, one thing that stood out was just how big of a punk Ace was when he first met Luffy.
Another thing that stands out, is even though Luffy gets put in extremely dangerous situations, he never mentions who his Grandfather is to get out of those situations.
I think the crew will reunite around chapter 600…
Around 8-10 weeks from now.
I don't.

I don't know if you are really disagreeing with my previous post there, but i most certainly disagree with yours. Luffy is the guy with the most potential and probably even the strongest in his crew even if Jinbei joins. After they both recovered i'd guess Jinbei won't go completely unscathed from Akainu's almost lethal hit, so i think he'd be past his prime from now on. How the others have improved till now is most uncertain, but Zoro will always be the first mate and he'll always find a way to be almost equal to Luffy's fighting powers… and Sanji won't let his rival just get ahead of him unanswered.
I just want Hancock to get pregnant so that she'd shut up and stay at Amazon Lily without dying from love sickness (No offenses meant dear ladies, this is just a plotdevice that has little to do with my real attitude towards women) and Margaret is still my favorite to join the crew anyway...
We got a next crewmate discussion that way guys…
It happens from time to time again… it's important after all.
Is it possible that the main reason why Garp left Luffy with bandits, was that he knew the WG would eventually search to kill any offspring of his son Dragon? It seems he left Ace with bandits, because any ordinary citizen would have turned him in to the WG. Better for Garp to have leverage against bandits and secure the life of Ace and Luffy than have them be executed, I guess.
Nah…Garp's just a horrible grandfather...maybe that's why Dragon is all evil..

Yeah, my bad, I copied the wrong quote.
As far as Hancock becoming pregnant, it may be a little too early in the series for that to happen.
Also, I still think Keimi is the next member.
No. Ace died because he lost his temper when Akainu insulted WB when he should've just ran like the old guy said. If anything, Luffy will probably blame his own weakness for not being able to deal with Akainu. His carefree nature has nothing to do with Ace's death
Akainu trolled Ace and Ace took the bait.

I personally think that is the gist of it. Dadan owed Garp a favor and also, Garp probably knew that even though Dadan was a bandit, she probably wasn't someone who committed heinous crimes.
Also, another reason would be what alternative did Garp have? Even if Luffy's mother is alive, she probably wouldn't be strong enough to keep Luffy from being a Pirate.
Also, by having bandits raise his grandsons, maybe Garp wanted to show Luffy and Ace that being an outlaw wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Garp probably knew Dadan would be hard on both of them and maybe they wouldn't like it.
It would be very interesting to know just when did Sengoku know of Ace's existence and more importantly, when he found out that he was under Garp's protection.
Nah…Garp's just a horrible grandfather...maybe that's why Dragon is all evil..
How is Dragon evil?
I thought there wouldn't be a chapter this week!!! And what a chapter it is.
All this time there was a landfill-slum on Luffy's home island. ;_;
This is the best flashback ever.
I think the crew will reunite around chapter 600…
Around 8-10 weeks from now.
I think the crew will reunite again after the finishing of this flashback, 600 chapter come on too much :happy:
anyone else find that it is kinda weird that Ace wanted to become a pirate at such young age? I mean he hate Roger right?
So what was he thinking?
"I hate my dad, so I want to be a better pirate than him"?
or maybe it was like "I inherit the blood of that notorious pirate, I can't fight my fate, I am destined to be a pirate"
maybe I am thinking too much into it…
I'm pretty sure luffy and ace will die by the end of this flashback… you heard it here first!!
Honestly, to the person above me, Ace didn't hate his dad he infact beat up anyone that dared make fun of him. it was only at an older age that he renounced Roger as his father and accepted Whitebeard. He even wanted to kill Shirohige for unknown reasons but it's most likely because of the rivalry w/ Roger.

Maybe this Captain BlueJam was part of Rogers crew and he kills Sabo, maybe thats why he's pissed at Roger :)

Oda-sensei is probably going to get more into that in future chapters, but my theory is that Ace sees it as, it's the only option for him. He's angry at the world, the marines would probably somehow find out who he is if he tries to join (and even if he didn't), the people who raised him hates him, so he probably thinks the only way to survive when he grows up is to become a pirate. There's probably more, but I'm gonna leave the rest to Oda-sensei.
MANGAFOX HAS IT.

You really think someone from Roger's crew would be a jackass like that? Even Buggy is a good guy at heart. Roger is like Luffy; I seriously doubt he would have taken anyone that's truly evil on-board his crew.
BlueJam surely is a bastard like Krieg.
I'm hoping for at least a few easter eggs in this flashback or a cameo or two. Maybe a young Galley or Spiel.
These Garp is a dumbass posts are tired.
I'm pretty sure luffy and ace will die by the end of this flashback… you heard it here first!!
Just like how James died to his tragic death in the midst of his own flashback of how poor he was, complete with his Growlithe howling in mourning.
And yeah: they really need to explain a bit more as to why Ace, who hates his dad and everything about him, wants to be a pirate like him. Yeah, eventually he ended up working for Whitebeard instead but why would he just suddenly have a dream to follow in daddy Roger's footsteps.

It's already been explained, he just wants more freedom than anyone else.
i'm guessing Ace wanted to be pirate to do the typical thing you see where somenoe hates their father yet for some reason do the same profession as their dad but want to become better.
but if ace and luffy became marines I believe the wg would have allowed it. i mean woudlnt' it be good to announce that the former pirate kings son is a great marine? I would think tha twould be like a blow to pirate moral or something right? or at least make civilians think, even roger's own flesh and blood knew his dad was evil and pirates are bad, or something like that.
and luffy was a shoe in. even if the uppers knew of his dad, then same as above for ace, but then also can say we have Garp the Hero's grandson as a great marine as well.
hmm i wonder what one piece would be like if they were marines. it would be like watching smoker i bet. We would have slowly gained rank by taking out many of the same guys, then met blackbeard and gotten a whole "chase him for sure, he is final boss vibe" we would have gotten celebrated for our events and in newspapers as heroes though.

How about surpassing his old men thus showing his own worth?
I don't understand why people want explanations for the least important details of the plot.
Why Ace wants to be a pirate? Maybe because he want to surpass his dad, or because he wants the freedom of the seas, where he can do as he will? Who cares!
That goes in the same cathegory as wanting to see Ace's funeral.
While some details would be cool to see, they're far from required reading. They are not essential do the plot.
Is it just me, or does this sudden flashback seem lame? Some people thought there would be some time skip forward, but backwards!? Lets move on and see the crew get back together again!
anyone else find luffy to be hell of a cuttie in this chapter

One emo Ace please ! :happy:
Sabo for first-mate of spade pirates.
Sabo for first-mate of spade pirates.
than he would be now a WB-pirate..means we should have seen him in the WAR!!

This question is awfully redundant, you know. :wub:
He ALWAYS is hella cute, especially as a kid, but damn … this chapter really is something else.
Garr, but now we've gotta wait way too long for the next chapter! Darn. I'm really interested in that whole Sabo&Ace story, I wonder if Sabo really did die as a kid ... I kinda doubt it. Don't know why, my guess is as good as yours, but I sort of think that he is still around. I don't believe he turned into a marine, I think he got into a fight with Ace, causing them to split up, but Sabo still became a pirate by himself.
No, hes dead. Killed by Kaidou. Bluejam is Kaidou
No, hes dead. Killed by Kaidou. Bluejam is Kaidou
Probably, he is after Shanks because he will stop his attempt to kill Whitebeard.
Wow… Ace was a fucking dick.
I'm glad he's dead now.

Holy Cow, you would fit right in the one piece world, right in Aces flashback.
