      If he doesn't have any fruit I imagine that some how during his cover story journey Vergo is going to end up walking around for a while with Smiley's fruit stick to his cheek.

      Folks who read One Piece… Just better people. ¯\(ツ)/¯

        zoro and franky's way to temporary stop the birdcage will be a simple strenght contest…i mean..they have in front of them a building that cannot be cut by the birdcage,and we know that the cage closes around keeping doflamingo at the centre...so even if you stop one part of them,the other part can't shrink because it has to mantain its shape...so if they stay behind the factory and push as hard as they can (as people who can lift buildings )..maybe they can stop for a while the shrinking of the birdcage

            Replying in bold.

            @sabinis:

            With punch strong enough CoA hardening doesnt protect from shock or if enemys limb is harder/heavier than part of body that gets punched by CoA hardened part of body then this bodypart get damaged. I won't say you're entirely off-track. Force and impact does matter as well as the hardness of the matter imbued with Haki.

            Like for example here
            http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20141212010049/onepiece/images/3/36/Bellamy_Punches_Luffy_with_Haki.png This is the part where you're off-track, it's true Bellamy's speed and force did count into his attack but Haki doesn't just work like that, in fact it's very simple that people here don't seem to bother to take it into account, it's on a case by case basis but it's also just determined purely by determination, willpower, resolve - like an actual fight. @_Hayato:

            The "power system" in One Piece is really quite simple and by no means that special or showy (which I suspect is also as to not overshadow Devil Fruits). The fact that Haki is a concept taken from the real world as well as the setting of One Piece, what Oda does is try and SHOW you, tries to make you FEEL that these fights are directly linked, not only to their character and story progression, but their will, their emotions, their spirit, motivations and their dreams. Feel free to think I'm full of sh-t though, that is your right.

            As a matter of fact, Mangastream took liberties and because of that, Bellamy lost a lot in terms of the dialogue. As you can see Page 2 and Page 3 of Chapter 770[hide][/hide]Compare it to say, Cnet's translations [or here when Doffy blocked with CoA but punch was strong enough for force from it go beyond CoA hardening](or here when Doffy blocked with CoA but punch was strong enough for force from it go beyond CoA hardening

Luffy was at his most serious. Also, keep in mind that a fight between two strong willed fighters, whom are which are both evenly matched (in this case Doffy is) in One Piece, are always shown to take very long in terms of battles: Mohji vs Cabaji, Ace vs Jimbei, Sai vs Ideo, Aokiji vs Akainu and Shanks vs Whitebeard. The last two fights mentioned are fighters with very strong wills, so much so that that the former were able to last 10 days and change the climate as a result to finally settle it, while the latter had a clash of will and spirit that neither gave in from - except the sky.

            [/b][b]The Gear 4 attacks are much more powerful attacks not only because of Haki and Dressrosa's imminent cage closing but because of Luffy's use of his rubber powers and that Rhino kick especially, was there to showcase Luffy's speed/velocity in that form - while Kong is Power and Python is accuracy/range/mobility.[/b]

            That aspect of CoA haki that creates thin armor on hardened thing/body part makes something like Tekkai still useful as if we get to see clash of 2 people with haki not being far from one another then natural body hardness also comes into play during fight. [b]Yes. Agreed.[/b]

            Before, during Punk Hazard arc we gotten to hear both Cesar and Doflamingo hyping up Vergos CoA haki just for him to get sliced in half by Law.

            During this arc Pica thrown words very alike to those we heard about Vergo, then he - same as Vergo during PH - gotten sliced up by Zoro.

            So In my opinion Vergos hype - words of CC and Doffy about haki and ) http://i.ytimg.com/vi/xFYyQyNiDQM/0.jpg http://666kb.com/i/cy10pugidz440sioa.png This is exactly what I mean by case by case.

            So In my opinion Vergos hype - words of CC and Doffy about haki and "cracking scene" might not be only explained with haki and Tekkai - because as Oda hints harder material gets covered in haki, harder overall it becomes. If it is Zoros swords, Vergos bamboo or Picas skin - harder base material is - more dangerous "weapon" becomes. Same with blocking enemys attack with harder part of body with one that is more delicate. Like when Sanji gotten kicked - part of body that Vergo used for that attack in normal body is not as hard as part of body that Sanji used for blocking.

            ! http://www.onepiecelove.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/sanji-vs-vergo.jpgJust gonna point out those "eletric shocks" are most likely the visuals of CoA. Though, still trying to determine whether the darkened "shocks" are CoC or just to go with (darkened) hardening..

            My opinion on Vergo is that we assumed that he was monstrously hard because of Tekkai and Haki - as we seen him using Geppou and Shigun along with haki hype from some characters like Cesar or Doflamingo that were shown to be highly mistaken. Tekkai was not yet directly named, there were only hints leading to assumption.

            All other seats along Doflamingo ended up as Devil Fruit users and we still have Oda putting emphasis on food sticking to Vergos face in every scene we see Vergo + that crack scene with Sanji - I would say that it is a window for additional reveal. It could help explain how Vergo lived through explosion in SAD room.

            Doflamingos Seats during Dressrosa gotten really nasty treatement and compared to them Vergos showing during Punk Hazard still makes him far more impressive. I think that reveal of Vergos Devil Fruit power after such long time would be good tool for hyping up Sanji - as his body wasnt holding up to metal/ alloy DF user and not somebody who is monstrously strong without Devil Fruit power. Vergo would be taken away from group of badasses that are very impressive without any Devil Fruits boosts - like Garp, Rayleigh, Zoro..
            **I'd just like to point out that Rokushiki is basically Ki-based Martial Arts. Iron body has an actual equivalent in real life. More importantly, there are advantages and disadvantages to both.

            Haki is determined by will, so Pirates and basically the more "loose"/undetermined style fighters use it. Let's just say Ki (and Martial Arts) are also used by Pirates but a few of them have actual training. Martial Arts on it's own, require discipline (and therefore Order) which is why alot of the Marines and Government Agents can make use of it. Oh and if you don't believe Rokushiki is Ki-based, this might be juvenile but… "Doriki".

            With all that said though, I won't say anything more about your Metal theory. It's still possible.**

              Replying in bold.

              Original idea to reply to a post I must say. Easy to read and lost of space saved 😉 and good read of course.

              As for replying to thoughts that you shared as reply - I agree pretty much with everything and you reminded me of "will" aspect of haki.

              It wasnt yet explored that much in manga, just hinted by some lines from Rayleigh - Bellamys resolve affecting strength of his CoA hardening makes sense and adds to reveal of Bellamy being capable of punching Luffy that hard with his haki..

                Usopp will hit Doffy with a Tamago Boshi and call him Chibi-Flamingo.
                Then he will hide behind Hack.

                  Since Law can switch people's personalities, Bepo is actually a human in a bear's body, and somewhere around the world, there's a guy with the personality of a bear.

                    I don't know, I think the person with the mind of a bear would either be dead or very injured. Unless Law is more of a dick than we thought, or it's pretty unlikely for him to switch the bodies of a crew member randomly. And it's even more unlikely for that dude to join him whole-heartedly.

                    I'd say Bepo's human body, if the theory is actually true, is probably very badly damaged, and since Law's a surgeon, he switched hearts, and Bepo lived on as a bear. It fits into Law's whole doctor image.

                      Or maybe the original Bepo "always dreamed of being a bear" or something like that, and Law helped him with htat. That'd be pretty silly and Oda-like. In other words: awesome.

                        I think Bepo is just a bear. He probably spends his spare time trying to consume 12000 calories a day to prepare for the winter deep sleeping sessions. He grazes the fields on the Islands of the New World scavenging pretty much anything he can get. He takes advantage of the salmon run at daytime because the daylight almost camouflages his body. His scat has many pieces of acorn, one of his favorite foods.

                              ONE PIECE IS AN ANCIENT CIVILIZATION ISLAND, THE ONE PIECE IS LITERALLY ITS NAME. Its people have single digit letters names D. One letter. Since they are the ones who made poneglyphs stone thing, the rio will be located there. Only one left, while they scattered all the others. and is the treasure luffy is looking for both robin and luffy dreams will be acheived there. Its the great kingdom opposed by current world government ancestors, i suspect they were also rich(treasure) as they were powerful. The will of D. Its rogers greatest treasure, his ancestors home his origin. One piece it self is no tresure but it sure has an abundance of treasure in gold and several other forms.

                                  Or maybe the original Bepo "always dreamed of being a bear" or something like that, and Law helped him with htat. That'd be pretty silly and Oda-like. In other words: awesome.

                                  In other words Bepo was at one point a man with a bear fetish until Law came along and fulfilled his dream.

                                    Not sure if this counts as a theory but when Robin gets her crew member number chapter title, she will finally laugh as "Dereshishishi".

                                    Yeah I was thinking the same when I heard that theory.
                                    Unless that person was a child and Bepo was raised as a bear or possibly one with a bear fetish like you said, either way it's both pretty.. kinda, well not gonna judge anyone for their fetish.

                                      I was thinking that Bepo is a bear Minkman. You know those Minkmen who were mentioned on the slave prices I think that is what Bepo is.

                                        Since seeing the bodies locked in ice at Punk Hazard I've been thinking that Kuzan's Ice Age attack is not a fatal one and that Saul has been in suspended animation all these years.
                                        My theory is that near the end of One Piece they'll be reunited and laugh together.

                                        So far the most popular theories are:

                                        1. Beppo is of the minkman tribe. Someone pointed out that the mink man is a very specific mythological Japanese being, the Kamaitachi, which could be a flaw in this theory.
                                        2. There is a Devil Fruit that transforms people into human/ beast hybrids. It has been theorized Kaido may have this DF, or at the very least someone working for him.
                                        3. This bear with a human soul created by Law theory.

                                        It's been pointed out that Pekoms and Beppo share the same type of eyes but there's no definite evidence to prove any of them yet.

                                          I like it! I'd love to see adult Robin laugh like that or teach some young kid the same.

                                            I personally like the theory that Saul is still alive and currently living as a hobo in Elbaf.

                                              So, well… I'll just put it in hear I guess...
                                              These are actually no real theories, just mere Ideas regarding Croc ^^ I've been rewatching the first Arcs lately and some things did come to my attention, which I didn't see today.

                                              I think since Impel Down their have been many discussion, wether Sir Crocodile might actually be a woman, and I agree to a degree, though I don't really like the idea. To me it seamed, as if he would hate Ivankov and be in the same moment emberrased... So on one hand, it would fit, on the other, it wouldn't explain the hate. It would also not explain the hate he had towards Crocodile. So I think their is more. In fact, I think Crocodile was betrayed by someone, possibly a close friend, comrade or ally. This could be directly or indirectly tied to Whitebeard, I don't know.... However the reason I think this, is because Crocodile was talking an aweful lot about trust during the Arabasta Arc. Starting at Rainbase, where he stated that trust ist the "most useless thing in the entire world", later on during his first fight with luffy, he is talking about it again: "Those who conspire with others, all die because of it..." Then finally before and during the last fight, he is naming trust among the things he stole, he say's he would forgive Robin, because he never trusted anyone to begin with and finally talks a lot to Luffy about why he is doing all this for his friends, and if he would go on doing it, even if he died... To me this all adds up to crocodile being betrayed some time in the past...

                                                He certainly carried a grudge against Whitebeard. But having a crappy childhood is not the most uncommon thing in the OP world.
                                                I'd love Croc's origin to involve Ivanov transforming her to a him to better achieve his dream, it's a really different type of story.
                                                But I wouldn't be surprised if he just likes putting on a pretty dress sometimes and hates being judged for it.
                                                It wouldn't surprise me if he gets a story where he's caught doing exactly that and then ol' sand face gets as epic a goofy facefault possible.
                                                Then he and Sanji join the final battle as the Mugiwara Drag Division. :ninja:

                                                  When I think of Crocodile fighting Whitebeard it reminds me of Ace, Croco too must have tried to challenge the strongest guy there is to prove his worth. I don't think Whitebeard has anything to do with his scars, he isn't the kinda guy that would slice a weaker man(nor any woman!) just because he won. Rather than taking his head, he must have wanted to fight against him one more time to regain his pride. The reason why he got so angry when WB got stabbed in the back by his own ally must have been precisely because it happened to him too. If you ask me he must have really looked up to WB - Croco is such a tsun-tsun.

                                                  If you think about the wounds on Crocodile there is no introduced character that fits as the one that betrayed him, so could it be possible that 7th Shichibukai is the one that betrayed him? He is important enough, it would fit into his character and most of all it was said he cut of Zephyr's arm with his devil fruit ability.
                                                  Also, if this turns out to be true, wouldn't it be interesting that the current right hand man of Croco has similiar power?

                                                  All I can think of how Ivankov fits in his story is that he must have saved Crocodiles life after she was betrayed and she must have asked Ivankov to turn her into a man to hide her identity. Wouldn't even be impossible if he worked as Revolutionary for a few years after that.

                                                  "In mad world, only the mad are sane."

                                                    4 minutes to use Haki again.

                                                    Rebecca is running somewhere.

                                                    I think Rebecca is currently trying to reach Luffy with Mansherry.

                                                            More seriously, I'm pretty sure the Vegapunk arc will involve mecha – back in the old days, Oda mentioned wanting to create a mecha manga after One Piece was done, and while that (probably) won't happen, I'm betting he'll import the concepts into the Vegapunk arc.

                                                            also, Luffy in the Gum Gum Mecha here we go

                                                              Yesterday I poisoned myself watching a youtube channel from a guy with a lot of fantasy, too much actually lol

                                                              My two theories:

                                                              Kaido is either a Chimera or a Cerberus ancient zoan and that Blackbeard will be there to kill him, steal his fruit so that he can be a Zoan/Paramecia/Logia user, as I think he can't get more than one species of fruit at the same time.

                                                              Shanks's crewmembers doesn't have any DF users.

                                                              Proud Kintama Owner ![](images/smilies/ipb/grin.png "Grin")

                                                                So… is it possible that awakening a DF heavily damages the user (or trades the user's lifespan for power in some way)?

                                                                      Koala is said to be a Fishman Karate teacher in the Revolutionaries…so is she going to teach a Strawhat Fishman Karate?

                                                                      Would be cool if Nami learned it, but that's probably a pipe-dream.

                                                                      On the other hand, Jinbei is almost guaranteed to join the crew, and he's already a Fishman Karate master. On the other other hand, Jinbei and Nami could use different styles of Karate.

                                                                      E 1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 0

                                                                        @Ninji:

                                                                        Theory that came to mind:

                                                                        Koala is said to be a Fishman Karate teacher in the Revolutionaries…so is she going to teach a Strawhat Fishman Karate?

                                                                        Would be cool if Nami learned it, but that's probably a pipe-dream.

                                                                        On the other hand, Jinbei is almost guaranteed to join the crew, and he's already a Fishman Karate master. On the other other hand, Jinbei and Nami could use different styles of Karate.

                                                                        Fishman karate isn't some magic trick, though, it's an actual martial art. it requires years of training and high physical ability(remember, fishmen on average are much stronger than humans, and it was designed for them)

                                                                        Nami is not, nor has she ever been a martial artist. it'd be pretty weird for her to learn it.

                                                                        Now, Sanji on the other hand, as an already trained martial artist+non-DF user(so he can actually use the ocean), and has already shown the ability to pick up new styles(learned okama kenpo), it'd make much more sense if he was the one to learn it.

                                                                        Koala already knowing a version adapted for human use just makes it easier for him. he obviously already has the strength required, and he's even already shown adeptness at underwater combat(blue walk)

But I don't think meeting her Nami would be like "quick let me randomly check on Lola's vivre card" so even though I wanted to think that Sanji & co had gotten on the ship but weren't hurt or behind bars like we could expect, I now lean towards "behing bars" then muuuuch later Nami remembering about the vivre card I guess? Maybe Law's crew is on the ship as well? Maybe the Kid/Apoo/Hawkins alliance will strike while the Strawhats are here (hopefully)? Although maybe Luffy won't end up fighting her, I can see him befriending her somehow. What if she helps them taking down Kaidou?

                                                                                I think Jinbe will arrive where Curlybrows are and they will be taken to Whole Candy where they will let them attend the tea party because of Jinbe. Once Luffy arrives he will obviously want Big Mom to let Jinbe and Sun Pirates go, but once it won't work there will be some conflict, that will then stop as the place is assaulted by some 3rd party.
                                                                                Big Mom definedly won't be the main baddie of the arc as they will certainly befriend her whether Lola is her mom or not. The reason why I am so sure of this is because Nami and her are both greedy witches at heart so they will definedly understand each other, I wouldn't even be too suprised if Big Mom turned out to be Nami's biological mom. Then there's also the thing that she personally knew Garp so he might associate Luffy with him and like him too. And Sanji…poor Sanji.

                                                                                Once all that is dealt with and the arc will go towards it's closure Nami will somehow figure (not by vivre card flying out, that would be lame) out Big Mom is Lola's mom making that extra trust needed to seal her making the deal with Big Mom in Luffy place. The deal will be that she will free Sun Pirates from her service in exchange of Straw Hats finding Bonney and bringing her back to Big Mom, her mother. At this point I think we will get a clue towards another island they will sail after Zou & Wano.

                                                                                "In mad world, only the mad are sane."

                                                                                  It's really hard to tell with the white suits.
                                                                                  The very tall one with the red mask is really tall and has a hard to define body shape. They could conveniently be Moria.
                                                                                  The one in the striped top hat and yellow beard on the mask is probably to tall to be Enel but I'm gonna go with it anyway.
                                                                                  The shortest one possibly Lucci?

                                                                                    The one in the striped top hat and yellow beard on the mask is probably to tall to be Enel but I'm gonna go with it anyway.
                                                                                    The shortest one possibly Lucci?

                                                                                    Yeah I'm not sure where I'm going with this now.

                                                                                    moria is impossible,since the teryuubito were the guy who wanted him dead in the first place.
                                                                                    ener doesn't seem at all like someone who would ever work for somebody,with the whole "i'm god" thing.
                                                                                    same with lucci..the WG wanted him dead last time we checked

                                                                                      Its about Doffy and his role in the OP world. I have come upon this 12 years ago, when I was in prison.

                                                                                      (Dont ask).

                                                                                      Okay. I know the TRUTH about Doffy. I know he is the final villain of OP.

                                                                                      Why do I know that?

                                                                                      Because I am the king of pridiction.

                                                                                      Today is a special day for you, because I decided to share this theory with the internet, for the first time.

                                                                                      I wanted to make a video about it on YOUTUBE to get 3 million views, but I do not like the fame very much.

                                                                                      Okay, are you ready?

                                                                                      I dont think you are ready but I will tell you anyway.

                                                                                      Remember how Oda-kun said before that there will be one villain in OP with an eye-patch, and that he is saving that quintessential pirate get up for a villain that will appear towards the end of the series?

                                                                                      Well, this villain is most definitely Donquixote Doflamingo!

                                                                                      I know, i know it is a little on the crazy side, but that is why I am known INTERNATIONALLY as the king of pridictions (KoP).

                                                                                      Notice how he has never shown his eyes to us, even in flashbacks where he is seen as a kid he is wearing those annoying sunglasses. Even during the last chapter his face remains in shadow as he wears his glasses.

                                                                                      Now this may not seem interesting, and many of you uninformed OP fans will discard it as a typical depiction of a 'cool' character.

                                                                                      This is further reinforced when we remember his jolly roger, the only one that actually has an eye-patch.

                                                                                      lets look:

                                                                                      Its the good eye that you see in the panel. We never see the left eye just like it is in the jolly roger.

                                                                                      I rest my case 🆒

                                                                                      P.s. Do you agree that I am the KoP?

                                                                                      (you are welcome!)

                                                                                      (wait for my next theory about the holy land and its secret).

                                                                                        If it was an eye patch, then the line would run directly through the eye.

                                                                                        Also, even if we do take that quote exactly as you've written it, "a villain that will appear towards the end of the series"...Doffy appeared after a few hundred chapters.

                                                                                        To be honest, this is a really silly theory.

                                                                                        It's also even harder to take seriously with you constantly referring to yourself by a clearly self assigned nickname.

                                                                                          I never thought it represented his string. Just his hate towards Roger or his ideals. Would be nice to get a real explanation for that. That flashback could have shown a lot more. Having another flashback of Dofla while he get's knocked out by Luffy would suck.

                                                                                            Dont hate me.

                                                                                            As with anything that Oda-kun presents, dont expect a 1:1 relationship between foreshadowed clues and reality, I absolutely believe Dofla will not die in this arc, he will somehow escape to remerge as that eye-patch villain, having his jolly roger with a line that runs through the eye would have been way too obvious.

                                                                                            So do you believe in my theory or not?

                                                                                            You can be no. 3 person in this world to believe it, this opportunity is for a limited time only.

                                                                                            There is most definitely a mystery to his eye, one that I suspect will be a massive reveal.

                                                                                            Your king of prediction never lies.

I bet you have a follower that cuts all bad theories and one that wants to map them all. Who's next? Someone who will lie about things that have happened that will come true after all?
