Could you explain ?
Um, in chapter 804 the mangapanda translation (not relying on this just using their words as an inspiration) said "teh teh teh teh like the sound ninjas make when they run around", so it's not he's using ninja skills but if he makes the sound effect he gets the ability.
If he said 'snikt' he could go all Wolverine claws, that sort of thing. 'Blam', 'Kapow' etc.

Oh okay.
That would be a good match with Kanjuro's ability.
I like it. 
I believe that overlaps with Apoo's power, though.
no it doesn't Appo transforms a part of his body into a musical instrument. Yes he can use the sound as a weaponā¦ but only music that he creates with his transformed body part. That's different from what they are proposingā¦ which sounds like person makes a sound and gets a power/affect affiliated with the sound= make the sound of ninja->gets powers of ninja, make snikt sound like Wolvierine->gets claws. Its the power of suggestion, man ;)

What I meant that Apoo's two named attacks are named after such onomatopoeias. Such as the drum exploding one being called "Don", for example. I understand what his idea is, but it still would infringe on his power.
I expect that next arc will be Holy Land arc.
Thanks to what Oda said about reveal of Sanjis mystery next year, being connected to his birth. He must be a noble.
So I would expect to get Holy Land arc with beating Kizaru and Kuma also meeting Sentomaru again. It would make sense for Strawhats to take down those people before they go at it with Kaidos crew.
Also Holy Land arc would be crazy good occasion to meet Vegapunk and get to see CP0 in action. It could be second Ennies Lobby for me but with Sanji being core of arc..

Interesting. So sanji could be born at Mariejois and be lost when he has very small. So cp0 arc. Aldo how does that fit with Wano country cause we have the samurais with us.

Excuse me? What have I missed? When did he say this?

Today at Jump Festa he said that 2016 will be Sanjis year, that Sanji will come back to main story in BIG way and that secret of his birth will be revealed.

Samurais can split with crew for time when Strawhats will go for Holy Land.
I expect Kizaru falling before any of Yonko.. Would make sense if we see Admiral loose before we will see Emperor getting defeated.

Why would Kizaru, among others, fall ?
And why should an Amiral fall before a Yonko ?
I would think the opposite, actually. When a Yonko falls, he doesn't regain his territories / power. Admirals, on another hand, doā¦ Except if they die, of course, but SH don't kill people.

Because in terms of strength progression, the admirals are weaker than the emperors (if Marineford is anything to go by). So it would make sense for Luffy to defeat one of the former before one of the latter.
Plus, the defeat of an admiral does have an impact, it makes the marines (and conversely the World Government) look weaker and more vulnerable, which leads to more chaos and damages the balance that the Elders have been trying to maintain is weakened.
And it doesn't need to be Kizaru, Ryokugyu would work fine as well.

But it would be better for it to be Kizaru, considering his role back at Shabondy.
@S.C.:

I agree for that reason Kizaru would make more sense as a sign of how far Luffy and the Strawhats have come.
But whenever Oda introduces an admiral, they get quite a bit attention and focus in that arc. So it would be plausible for Ryokugyu to have a villainous role for their introduction and their own saga (because they need quite a bit of screentime), which ends in their defeat.
This is, of course, rather pre-mature given that we don't have a single clue if the character is more like Kuzan or Akainu, so I currently lead towards Borsalino until we finally Greenie.
Replace Luffy with Sanji and Buggy with kizaru and you have the next one piece chapter :ninja:
Okay so I'm typing up a new theory but the problem is it needs it's own thread and I don't think my account has permission to make a new one, what's the best sub section on Arlong Park for theories that isnt this one?

None.

You could contact a mod and ask them for help. They may want you to tell them the theory before they agree, because they have to see if it is good and elaborate enough.
I wonder if we will see more of Luffy using his enlarged fist covered with haki as shield and weapon..
Shame we seen only small bit of it being used against Fujitora here

Jack/Weevil/Whitebeard could be related theory
Whitebeard could've had evil parents, who made his childhood a living hell trying to exploit his powers for their own means (ala Miss Bakkin with weevil). But he resisted, ultimately running away to become a pirate. Dreaming of a true "loving family" he never had growing up. Not deterred, his parents could've had a 2nd child (Jack), who inherited all of the evils of his parents. The metal mask could be hiding his mustache that would connect him to Whitebeard..
Edward Weevil could be Jack/Bakkin's real son who is being used by his parents to destroy Whitebeard's crew (his family) and claim his legacy.
The first part of your theory seems very plausible (until Dreaming of a true "loving family" he never had growing up).
Now I don't think Jack and Whitebeard would be related. Nothing leads to that.
Not sure if this was mentioned. Gambia has the same kind of tattoos as the smile users.

I like this theory. And about the mustache, Jack's horns seem to be in the shape of WB/Weebil mustacheā¦

Here's the theory on devil fruit origins and where they may have originally grown. Still don't have permission to make my own thread so I'll just post it here.
Really good theory.
I hope that we'll learn more about Davy Jones in the future, too.

Loved the theory. The part about the devil fruits possibly having the powers of dead people's souls made think a little bit further. Ever since Rocinante mentioned the fact that D is God's natural enemy, I started thinking D means devil. I believe there was a great war during the Void Century between the Celestial Dragons and the inhabitants of the unknown ancient civilization that was destroyed. Maybe these people had weird powers and the Celestial Dragons (calling themselfves Gods) started to refer to these people as devils. When they lost the war, their souls were transfered to the fruits that grew on the Adam and Eve trees, so that their will could be inherited by whoever ate the fruits, through their original powers. That's why the fruits were named Devil Fruits (I know they're named Akuma no Mi in japanese, and that doesn't have anyting to do with the letter D, but stillā¦ it could be). The only thing that doesn't make a lot of sense here is that fact that anyone can eat Devil Fruits. Even "Gods" (like Doflamingo and Rocinante) can eat them. So the whole inherited will of the Devils kinda makes no sense here...

One problem there is the bolded. People have seen the Adam tree and the Eve tree, and we've been told what properties they have, none of it is devil fruits.
Treasure Tree Adam - wood is hardest in world, able to withstand cannonballs and gunfire.
Sunlight Tree Eve - colossal tree whose roots reach down 10,000 feet to FI, through which it bring sulight and air to the island.
Usopp noted the similar names (Adam, Eve) and wondered if there was a connection.
Pity Robin hasn't told Usopp that there was the tree of Knowledge on Ohara, it housed a library that spanned 5,000 years until Marines destroyed it.
Not sure if this was mentioned. Gambia has the same kind of tattoos as the smile users.
Very nice catch.
Bartolomeo could have ended up with getting one of smile fruits for his crew when he entered New World or even before.
Funny or not Bart was a mobster having like 150cities under him ? Mini Doflamingo I would say 
Kaido is part fishman.
Today I was thinking about what can be other gear for Luffy and with little Luffy(after effect of Gear 3rd before timeskip) being gone I would say that there is a chance for Gear 5th Luffy to vulcanize-harden himself.
As I see it and as I would find it quite funky - keeping it funny and impressive at same time - Luffy could harden himself loosing his rubbery-streachy and getting smaller.
Covering his whole self with haki and getting maximally hard with a bit of rubbery features could be devastating.
Its silly to imagine small badass Luffy and it being one of forms where he is at his strongest. It could put in different angle situation where Lucci holded up shrunken Luffy..
Maybe eventually he'll be able to make all of himself giant-sized instead of just a limb.

That could be done at Elbaf to fight giants.

Would that really be necessary?
Luffy knocked out Hajrudin with ease only an arc ago after all.

Well if he ever does full giant g3 mode, it would fit there more. Maybe some giants are so big and strong( like san juan wolf) that he has to get to their level, to say so.

Yeah, I suppose that could be a possibility.
I have a strange suspicion that Wolf is something else entirely though.

I think so too. He's just so huge compared to average giants :
!
He could be from the same species as Wadatsumi. Because of their size, and because of this ;
!
Here, Wadatsumi is swimming while carrying Jinbei, his gifts and the Poneglyph.
!
And here, San Juan is seen next to Blackbeard's boat.
Which means that they're both creatures having the capacity to swim for very long distances.
As big as the are they would have no other way of transportation/movement to get to another island, of course they would be great swimmers.
I still wonder how the hell they got Wolf into Impel Down, and how much wreckage there must have been after his escape.
My dumb guess is that if Wolf is also some sort of Pufferfish Fishman like Wadatsumi, they deflated him and crammed him in.
The final fight against Kaido will resemble the fight against Oars, however it will be Luffy, Law, and the Grand Fleet captains working to bring Kaido down.
Spoiler:
Wanda will become a temporary crewmate like Vivi following this arc. The SH's need her nose to track down Sanji's scent because a logpose will be useles, and nobody has a Vivre Card that points to Sanji. I know it's a long shot given the Sanji left Zou two days ago, but if the wind is just right perhaps. . .
Edit: Since Caesar is with him, maybe Wanda can pick a gasy trail more easily than Sanji.
@Kaido:

You forgot to mention Moriah and X-Drake, and if Kaidou's destruction of his base has any story significance, then Kidd and his alliance might have a role to play as well.
The successor to the straw hat will be MakinoĀ“s child, which most likely might be the son of Shanks.
Would be a great ending to the series, when Luffy visits his hometown and gives the straw hat to ShankĀ“s son.
I mostly agree with u.
I mostly agree with u.
Its mostly that man's son AKA Shanks. Its quite amazing majority of us have this ending in our mind's or predict that Shanks will die and Luffy will give his hat to Makino's son and i hope the series goes that way excluding shanks death instead of some other ending. But i will enjoy whatever Oda writes as seeing the ending of One Piece is very important for me after all this awesome journey of OP we have been on.
I don't think we need Chopper to communicate with Zou at all, like many people suggest. If anything the Minks know how to speak with him. My theory is, noone can talk with him because he's like a Sea King and only able to speak to Luffy.

Some of us still reckon he's the Big Bad. :ninja:

Well Garp certain thinks Shanks is the big bad. After all it's one thing to go become a pirate, its quite another to influence kids to want to become pirates, esp. if the kid is your own grandchildā¦
At times I wondered if Shanks knew that Luffy was grandson of Garp. On one hand its not mentioned back then, but on the other they entire village likely knew since they knew both Garp and Luffy
CHARLOTTE FAMILY:
Big Mom has 35th daughters, imagine the poor fatherā¦ I imagine a poor small bald guy. That's why she's called Big Mom! This is a family who wants to be big. That's why Lola is trying to marry everyone... That's the philosophy of that clan to have daughters and marry important mens.
Charlotte Linlin (Lin means forest, so Big Mom is going to use a Devil Fruit related with trees, wood or nature)
Charlotte Purin (Purin Purin means is Often used with breasts and caramel custard.) So imagine a very "busty" and fat woman) Charlotte Lola
Big mom cake party=Mad tea party in Alice in Wonderland. A big long table with mad people from Big Mom crew and the best chefs in the world to "cook" for the family. So wait for crew members called Dormouse, March Hare and Hatter.
Vinesmoke Family
Sanji (San means Three so is the third son) Vinsmoke Ichiji
Vinsmoke Niji
Vinsmoke Sanji
