Throughout this month, we will be testing new features (like search) so you may experience some hiccups from time to time. We'll try to not be too disruptive...
Now that Kaku has eaten a Devil Fruit I think the chances of Soge King vs Kaku are alot higher now 
But without A decent opponent for Zoro I still don't think there will be a long nose battle…..
Soge King vs Fukurou is still the best match up for Usopp IMO
But if it did turn into Soge King vs Kaku, Soge King can now prey on Kaku's DF weakness :D. Poor Nami she has to deal with a DF user too.... I can't wait to read the fights! it's gonna be tight!

Nami vs Kalifa will be very interesting; both women received power-up recently, and were just getting the hang of it. Kalifa, despite being the weakest of the 6, will prove to be a very tough opponent for Nami.
Predictions:
Zoro's fight would probably end with Zoro landing only one blow on the opponent; most of the fight would be him trying to land that blow… (Mr. 1, Braham, Ohm... all one hit)
If SogeKing does go against Kaku, it'll be one on one. If he goes against Fukurou, then it would be a tag team with Chopper.
it would be really funny if sanji and paulie watch nami and Kalifa fight.
Just from the new pics you can tell it's going to be -
Nami Vs Califa - Nami wins
Sanji Vs Kaku - Kaku wins
Zoro Vs Jabura - Zoro wins
Soge King vs Kumadori - Soge King wins
Chopper Vs Fukuro - Chopper wins
Luffy Vs Lucci - Luffy wins
I'm afraid I don't know "Futagori." I assume "Chappa Chappa" is Fukuro…
That may seem right, though. But we'll have to learn Kaku's fruit.
...Oh, "Kumadori," you mean.
Yeah that's what I mean lol.
Sorry I didn't take the time to learn the cannon fodder names.

Hmmm What will Tile Stone, Lulu and Pauly do when they get there with Soge King?
And the two giants as well.
If the three ship wrights do stay I think a tag team match will be coming
Lucci vs Luffy and Pauly would be nice…..
But Luffy always takes solo so Pauly either takes Kaku and turns it into
Kaku vs Pauly and Soge King
or Pauly Tile Stone and Lulu will get to triple team one unlucky punk xD maybe a half dead Blueno?
I don't think Soge King should get a tag team..... He's a super hero after all. If Luffy and Chopper are gonna idolize him, he has to win on his own xD
Kaizouku Hunter.... Why did you say all the SH win over the CP9 except for Sanji? lol if so who takes Kaku down?
Kaizouku Ou RPG Forum Join My One Piece RPG forum!
im still holding true to my predictions that i made waaay back and those are in case anyone forgot,
Luffy-Luchi
Kaku-Sanji
Jabura-Zoro
Sogeking/usopp-Fukuro
Nami-calipha
and finaly Choppa-Kumadori.
Kaizouku Hunter…. Why did you say all the SH win over the CP9 except for Sanji? lol if so who takes Kaku down?
Kaku wins…he either joins the Strawhats or he goes off on his own adventures.
Sorry dude that can't happen for three reasons
1 Sanji kicks butt
2 Kaku's done too much damage to the strawhats to join them
3 two long noses?
4 Kaku doesn't have to win against Sanji to have a cover story
Being across from each other right now doesn't mean crap.
I think the matches are pretty much set in stone; if I'm wrong about any of my predictions, I'll be very suprised.
And don't underestimate Sanji.
I can never tell if you guys are serious. KH, if you really think Kaku will beat Sanji and then join the Straw Hats, you have about a year's worth of material to consider.

Best battle ever!!!

We've had surprises before…Robin joining for one...
It could happen. Oda likes to keep everyone on their toes.
I look at Kaku and...there is no way he's a bad guy. I wouldn't be surprised if he flipped.
Also...no disrespect to Sanji, but when he fights whatever CP9 member he goes up against, he is going to have a tough time.
Whether its Jabura or Kaku..he's going to have to pull something off like we haven't seen him do before.
Luffy and Zoro...we don't have to worry about them. The rest of the Strawhats we do though.
Dynamite Glove - A Hajime no Ippo Guide
Every fight every character has ever had is like that. They have to surpass our expectations with every fight, or nobody would ever win.
Not really…
Up until now we pretty much knew everyone was going to win...
I mean it was a given Luffy would beat Arlong and Crocodile...and Zoro would beat Mr. 1...
These CP9 guys (Lucci, Jabura and Kaku especially) are some pretty tough customers.
The Strawhats might have finally met their match.
Dynamite Glove - A Hajime no Ippo Guide
He'll have a tough time, alright. He has a 75% chance of winning his match, though. Everything is riding on this and he's been getting pissed off almost the whole arc.
But they're definitely not going to let someone beat up Sanji and then take his spot in the crew.
mean it was a given Luffy would beat Arlong and Crocodile
Though, he actually didn't beat Crocodile. He lost. Twice.
And I think it's a given here that they'll surpass their enemies. This is pretty much just like Alabasta, only MORE personal.

Never said Sanji would leave…he just can't beat Kaku.

Uh…Luffy blew Crocodile away and Croc couldn't get up...Luffy was in bad shape as well, but I'd say Luffy clearly won the final match. You do read the manga right? And not just watch the anime?
This isn't anything like Alabasta. Alabasta was the best arc in the series.

If you stop and think of where you are and what this discussion has been about, you shouldn't have to ask that question. 
This isn't anything like Alabasta. Alabasta was the best arc in the series.
That's an opinion. Alabasta isn't even my second favorite arc. Or third.
I wouldn't say anyone "can't beat" so and so. It's not a matter of who can but who will. I'm sure Oda knew who was going to beat who and for what reason as soon as he created the characters.
Never said Sanji would leave…he just can't beat Kaku.
I never said he'd leave, either. I meant take his spot in the fighting tier. That'd be almost as bad as Mihawk joining the crew after slicing up Zoro.
Uh…Luffy blew Crocodile away and Croc couldn't get up...Luffy was in bad shape as well, but I'd say Luffy clearly won the final match. You do read the manga right? And not just watch the anime?
By the third time. Luffy lost the first time. There's no denying that.
And you can't deny that when all the crew had already won their fights, and Luffy came up for a rematch after giving a little talk about fighting Croc, that he lost again. I'm sure most of the readers at the time didn't expect it, and I don't even think I did. So no, it wasn't a given.
This isn't anything like Alabasta. Alabasta was the best arc in the series.
What Cosmic said. But even if Alabasta was the best to all of us, what does that even have to do with anything?
none of the strawhats are gonna lose their final fights in this arc,
it might look grim for them for one moment and then they turn the fight around and beat them senseless like they always do.
and an other thing why oh why do people think Kakus gonna leave the CP9 ?
is it just cause he looks oh so nice and cuddly:rolleyes:
Not really…

Come on. That is not a reasonable argument. Its kinda obvious that they are gonna surpass their enemies. Luffy not gonna die in this fight so that he can't become pirate king. It's not like the zoro vs. Mihawk fight. If strawhats lose they die and therefore the end of one piece. 
Never said Sanji would leave…he just can't beat Kaku.
based on what? i don't get it? because he doesn't plan to be the best martial artist in the world?
I recommend: Peerless Martial God, Renegade Immortal, Gourmet of Another World, Trash of the Counts Family and The Great Ruler
based on what? i don't get it? because he doesn't plan to be the best martial artist in the world?
hmm judging by his previous posts I'd say based on fanboy- or tardism.
There can't be any other. I, too, judge Sanji to be a bit weaker than Zoro, not much but still weaker, however I am aware that it's just a feeling based on no real evidence. Zoro just appears to be stronger to me, but there is no connection with Sanji being able to beat Kaku or not.
One on One
Luffy vs Lucci
Zoro vs Kaku
Sanji vs Jabura
Chopper vs Kumadori
Usopp vs Fukuro
Nami vs Califa
what is the general opinion where and how they are going to fight?
Will they fight tournament style in a series of one on one's on the rooftop? Cause the space is too limited for them to fight all at once, unless they all learn to fly.
That way there could be an emo-max scene of ussopp's mask breaking in front of luffy and the fights would begin immediately. However why should the CP9 chose to fight that way? They are killers no honorable warriors.
Or will there be one round of a grand melee until the CP9 realize that the SH are no pushover and then they separate and each SH follows one of them? It would be quite untypical for a shonen manga, but what about the other marines. If they separate, they'll encounter marines again and, although the marines pose no actual threat, they would annoy us in the middle of the real fights.
Or will the CP9 retreat and the SH follow them once the drawbridge is down?
That way Oda could create a better battlefield, where all fights could happen parallel, however what would have been the point of the cool standoff we had at the end of this chapter and luffy's "leave the rest to us" line?
I'm taking this all-out brawl idea more and more seriously. In the past the only reason they fought seperatly was because they began seperated. Now that their together I dont think its very likely they'll split up. Wether it's 1v1s all in one area or a massive 6v6 iono, but i dont think theyll be spliting up.

The problem with the giant melee is that they would have to relocate, since there is hardly enough space on the roof for them all to fight at once. Although I have to say Sanji getting cut up by Zoro's 108 pound phoenix while Nami fries Chopper with her lightning sounds highly amusing.
I also don't think they'll separate, but I thought I should mention the possibility.

Erm, they seperated because Oda wanted to do 1 on 1 fights. It´s not like the characters seperated against his will and he had to do 1 on 1 fights as a replacement for the brawl he was planning to do.
If Oda wants 1 on 1 fights then the fact that they are all together now shouldn´t be a bother. It´s his story after all and he can decide the course as he pleases.

Well obviously its Oda's call, but what im saying is that in the past ODA choose to seperate them in advance. In this situation ODA chose to keep them together.
I agree, Kokolores, they will probably need to move to a larger place, but keep in mind that the CP9 doesn't need to be on the ground to fight. As for the Nami issue, that kind of brings back somthing i said a a while ago, that Nami needs to learn to funnel her otherwise large area attacks into a specific area.

Uhm, in the Arlong Arc he assembled all the fighter at the same place in the beginning. Just Usopp and Chew left the scene. The other took part in one on one fights without leaving the scene.
Unconcious Franky Vs. Unconcious Blueno
The only way I could see Franky participating in the fight against CP9 is if he regains consciousness and beats up Spandam if Panda…I mean, if Spandam tries to escape afterwards.
^That was in the "unlikely section", lol.

XD , good call. But I don't see Luffy getting trapped again OR Usopp running away, which is what split them up to begin with. Also Oda doesn't usually repeat himself so I think we're gonna be able to see something completely original this time.
Right now they're all together. If they were to fight seperate fights I think it would be something like Spandam ordering them to take Robin away. Then they get split up in Impel Down, or something like that. Other than that I dont really see a reason why he would split them up…
BTW: Wasn't it said somewhere that there was supposed to be a returning Alabasta character. Just wondering if we have any thoughts there....

Lets see…..Blueno is down so… new fights are... Lucci VS. Luffy Kaku VS. Usopp Jyabura VS. Zoro Nami Vs. Califa Fukouru or Kumadori VS. Chopper
Has it been suggested that maybe they will fight together in a manner that requires teamwork, like all of CP9 v. Strawhats or maybe even two teams of 3 each? Unlike an all out rumble, that would require them to be organized and not get in each other's way. I think that would be cool, considering a lot of what this arc has been leading up to is the unity of the crew.

Excuse me? Oda doesn´t repeat himself? In 390 chapters all the fights have been 1 on 1 fights so I´d say that he very much has a solid structure of how his fights are handled.
And as far as the Usopp running away or Luffy getting trapped thing is concerned, did you see Usopp running away or Luffy getting trapped after finishing chapter 81? I doubt so.

Who says that they have to split up to fight seperately? As I just explained with the Arlong Park example, out of 8 fighters six remained together at the same place. And yet they fought 1 on 1 fights. I redirect you to chapter 81 again. The same discussion we´re having know could have happened back then too. And yet there wasn´t anything that didn´t make the 1 on 1 fights appear plausible. I don´t see why 1 on 1 fights are so impossible right now in Enies Lobby.
BTW: Wasn't it said somewhere that there was supposed to be a returning Alabasta character. Just wondering if we have any thoughts there….
Hmm, never heard about that one. Where was that said?
Has anyone considered:
Sogeking v.s. Jabuya?
I'll stick with One Piece to the end.

Actually, not all of them have been 1v1.
Luffy nd Zoro worked together against Morgan
Chopper and Usopp tag teamed against Mr.4 and the Mole hag.
Luffy and Sanji teamed up against Satoru.
Sanji and Zoro destroyed the Groggy Monsters together.
So there have been team fights before,and there do remain chances for team fghts in the future.
And the more i think about it, the more i find myselfrooting for a Zoro/Sanji team up against Kaku and Jyabura.
still hoping for
Lucci vs Sanji
Jabs vs Luffy
Kaku vs Chopper
Kuma vs Zoro
Fukoro vs Usopp
Calipha vs Nami
Spandam vs Franky

Actually the Morgan fight was two 1v1´s. Luffy took on Morgan alone and would have defeated him if Helmeppo wouldn´t have interfered. The moment of interference ends the Luffy vs. Morgan 1v1. The next 1v1 fight is when Zoro takes down Morgan with one strike. A teamwork would appear if Luffy would hold Morgan so that he can´t dodge Zoro´s attack. But that wasn´t the case.
The Groggy Ring thing was a team sports event where they actually tried to score goals instead of knocking their opponents out in the classic sense. So it doesn´t count.
Appart from that I agree with you. The fight with Satori aswell as the Mr. 4 Pair fight were teamfights. That´s two teamfights in 390 chapters. How much is that in terms of percentage?
Has anyone considered:
Sogeking v.s. Jabuya?
Tho it'll be cool… no.
Jyabura would most likely pick a strong-looking opponent like Zoro or.. Sanji.

Hmmm… your right about Morgan.
But the DB fight was hardly a game. It was a fight. The rules were made up to suit it to the Foxy pirates. Hell they were planning on killing Zoro and Sanji with all the weapons and all.
That was so a fight, and it ended with their opponents being KO'ed. Boxing is a sport, but they boxers do fight you know.Nobody calls it a game.
And i also forgot to mention, Nami and Gon FOuru's fight against Satoru's brothers.
Sure its small in percentages, but hey that wasnt my point. It was in reply to Sabre saying that all the fights so far were 1v1s. I sont mind the fights going either way tbh as long as its not a brawl, where everybody overshadows everybody else.
In Skypiea, in the chapter 267 a batlle all vs all start, zoro, the snake, the old god, one priest (i don't remember his name) and his dog, waipa and 5 or 4 more. That isn't a battle 1 vs 1.
Me encantan que las cosas salgan bien

Werd!! I completely forgot about this. Its a huge brawl but people are still semi seperated. However this kind of makes an all out brawl LESS likely seeing as something of this nature allready happened.
