So much for the holy ark of the Fishmen. Commence raging Neptune?
Anyway, great chapter, but one thing disappoints me: the lack of personality the NFP show. To me it seems this is the end of the story arc. That means the NFP have had very little expansion or even fighting screentime. I hoped they would be more of a show. This does not mean I do not enjoy these fights; bring out the finishing moves Strawhats!
Great chapter. I like the little flashback with Whitebeard…good to see the WB commanders in their younger days again - with that bastard Blackbeard...also - looks like Marco has a sword.... :wassat:
And Blackbeard with a claw...guess that explains the Shanks scar...
Chopper being able to control Monster Point FTW. Chopper just doesn't cease to amaze (even though it was pretty expected).

Hyozou really seems to fake Zoro with his words… He looks bad-ass and not scared.
But it was a great chapter... And now 2 weeks for my answer
This is the second chapter in a row that's surpassed my expectations, very good. It also looks like Hyozo's definitely not dealt with yet, that crafty octopus/squid. What one is he again?
Good to have character developement with Brook.
As he joined in the crew before the war & TS, I felt like we didn't knew much about him & his beliefs.
Nice to give him screen time at this (monster) point!
Damn Chopper has jumped a lot of hurdles over the 2 years. Staggering improvement. And Oda has obviously recognised that Brooke really didn't have much to do since he joined the SHs… there was Thriller Bark, and then a short time together in Saboady... he didn't even get a one-on-one fight unless you include the loss against Ryuma. Oda is giving Brooke more time than the others, and showing us how great a nakama he really is.
Not bad for a chapter. Would liked to have seen a better defeat of Hody, it happened quite quickly. But there are a few things here and there that could come to life... like the Joy Boy thing, or maybe something to do with Big Mam.
Usopp lol
God bless Oda for showing the claws of BB and now let the stupid theories die
sooo… the form which needs rumble ball that chopper talked about is the monster point then?
I really liked this chapter. An awesome scene for Brook, and things look like we might finaly be rid of Hody.
Remember that Monster Point has another side-effect - it drains his energy. He can probably use it longer, but it's still limited, and if he runs out he can't move.
Brook sure as hell deserved this. Since he joined the crew, I always felt he was like a stranger in there and that's just 'cause Oda never had time to make him look like a real SH. Great to see he focused exactly on that this time.
And what about Hody's toughness? According to Aohige's translation Luffy says Hody's toughness is of someone worth 100,000,000 bely. But in mangastream, it's just Luffy saying "I'm one million times tougher than that…"
Was the japanese script transcripted wrong or it was a translation mistake by naruhodo?

And then on the other hand I don't understand why Oda "wasted" a whole chapter with the re-introduction of each NFP-officer (in roman font).
This arc is not bad. I expected more from it a long time ago, but yet I'm fine with it. Only thing that dosun't feel right is the pacing. Sumtimes it seems rushed and other parts feel rather slowly. But I'll wait til its end to jump to conclusions.

Usopp lol
Completely agree with you bout the Brook-thing. Its his first real 1 on 1 fight and we already learnt so much bout his character in the last few chaps.
After the fights I'm also excited of Joy Boy and BigMom's reaction to all of this.
We also got confirmation bout WB's motives when he claimed FI to his turf.
It was personal, BigMom on the other side seems only to be interested in those candies.

Maybe it's like Skypeia in the sense that it wasn't the bell or the city the shandrians were protecting but the poneglyph. Perhaps there's another one inside Noah? If so, it's not Noah that needs protection: just a guess!

Maybe this is the one-in-a-million time where Naruhodo is actually right between two contesting translations. The MS line makes a million times more sense, while the other version is completely off-the-charts illogical and out-of-place.
Quoting Silverblade from the Spoiler Thread: "It's really hard to judge Hyozou's words without seeing his expression at the moment."
Seriously, the outrageous ammount of raging at the script, and when the chapter comes. . .He is ready to use his venom while looking oh, so afraid.
And the Noah thingie looks much, much harder than the script also let go. It's far, FAR from being destroyed.
And as someone already said, was the "Your toughness is equal to 100M. Berry" a mistranslation? I mean, it sounded mighty dumb. Maybe the MS translator found it to cheesy to translate, like that Datebayo line.
Other than that, great chapter. Wolverine BB, good old Whitebeard, Usopp's statue. . .
Maybe the only weird thing for me was that Chopper's Monster Point was uncalled for (as Usopp also noted). . .
(Oh, and Hody might be pretty weak, but at least his attacks all look cool. Those water-shark bullets look awesome!).
(Oh, and Hody might be pretty weak, but at least his attacks all look cool. Those water-shark bullets look awesome!).
And his fishmen karate moves are supposed to be shit compared to Jinbe's. It is really time for Oda to show us what he is really capable of. Maybe we get a proper demonstration on Wadatsumi next chapter.
I'm sorry One Piece, but naruto had one of the best chapters of all time!!
Thank you Aohige for the translations!!
WOW this chapter has me buzzing lol
"One Piece will be on break next week"
Usopp: "Huh!?"
"Why!?"
What theories regarding Blackbeard were there before he was shown using claws in this chapter? It's all Cerberus-related, right?
Thanks in advance!
I felt the chapter was great until we got monster chopper. It was just too out there, I don't see why it was necessary but then again maybe Chopper will explain this with actions next chapter.
Everything else was simply awesome. Brook as a character is rising leaps and bounds, simply amazing.
I'm also really hoping that the destruction of Noah isn't the simple cop-out. There was a reason why Neptune wanted it intact, otherwise that whole thing of having it not crash before just feels empty now. What changed? I recall Brohoshi said it was ok to bring things back to zero, maybe that's it.
Still, I feel like a terrified Robin looks from below as Luffy destroys a historic artifact.
Nice two weeks ago it was Chopper then Usopp and now Brook gets a badass speach/moment.
Liked the episode, I always though the Island would eventually be destryed and the fishman would leave in the Noah, kinda looking forward to see what will happen now(the island will be destroyed anyway).
The cover storie is so funny, had to smile for a while after seeing it :)
So Noah still isnt destroyed but Luffy is giving his best to do so right now…i wouldnt be too sure that he gets it done already in two weeks(seeing the prophecy is still unfulfilled and i can`t see Luffy being done with his stuff while the rest of the crew still has to fight).
Hyouzou now FINALLY using his poison won`t be a hard task for Zoro, but i somehow hope he may be able to form poison-swords :)
Chopper being able to control monster-point is nice but we saw it now a bit to early..could have been used in a more dangerous situation in the future.
Nice to see Blackbeard before his schism with Whitebeard.
@Don:

I think the important part is that there was no indication that Chopper had to use a Rumble Ball to get to Monster Point. If this is the case, what Point has he developed that still needs a Rumble Ball?
Awesome chapter!! That elephant gatling was badass, and it seems that Chopper had finally gained control over monster point. :)
@The:

I am hoping that he still has Arm Point.
Hmm from the sfx "chomp" look like Hody wouldnt even be able to stand up if he didnt eat all that pill to use murasame. Bah he a weakling even with those pills.
The fact that squidy isn't going to Zoidberg it makes this the worst chapter in the world.
After the time-skip Chopper only needs to take a rumble ball for one point which is revealed to be his Guard Point in Chapter 605 of the Manga. Now Chopper has full control of his Monster Point and has no reason to have to consume more then one.

Don't trust the One Piece wiki.
Oda must be the author in Jump that takes the most breaks. The last one was what, about 1 month ago?
Okay chapter. I was kinda hoping Luffy wouldn't destroy Noah, given its importance. Now who knows what will happen.
So Hyouzou is finally using his poison, let's see how that works out.
Wasn't it easier to simply deflect Noah a little bit while it is slowly moving down, so that it would crash outside the island ???
And nothing new with Shirahoshi and her power to summon Sea Kings ???
@HTC:
Maybe it's like Skypeia in the sense that it wasn't the bell or the city the shandrians were protecting but the poneglyph. Perhaps there's another one inside Noah? If so, it's not Noah that needs protection: just a guess!
I also think more or less the same. Just like Skypeia, the task given by their previous ancestors (the one trully needs to protect, that is the message in poneglyph, not the bell like in Skypeia and also not the Noah in this FI) actually has been taken away by Gold D Roger to Raftel. So it does not serve its purpose anymore, it's just they don't know about it yet. And here Robin will tell them for sure.
There are still several things to be uncovered, like Shirahoshi with her ability to call upon Sea Kings, the origin of E.S drug, the factory, Big Mom's interest, and of course Caribou.

anyone thinking the she'll gain this ability at the last second and command the sea kings to move it away?
(also… LOL skeleton-mask (from the MS translation) made me laugh a bit haha too much anime as a kid :ninja:)

I figure it's for the same reason why Sanji made Wadatsumi get so large.

I got only one problem with that theory:
Poneglyphs don't have to be protected. They are unbreakable.
Thats why the WG fears them this much.
On the other hand it'd be a nice hiding place inside Noah, an ark thats on the ocean floor for several hundreds of years.
Bout not to trust the OP-wiki, then why do so many people trust FOX channel? :ninja:
Agreed. Wadatsumi's size, Chopper going Monster and the fact that Jinbe is clearly aware Sanji has a plan.. I have no doubt the latter three have a plan. The thought of Chopper using his horns to throw/deflect Wadatsumi into the air keeps entering my mind, although Monster point doesn't seem the perfect form for it. (Then again, it's the only one he has to handle something of Wadatsumi's size!) So yeah, Sanji and Jinbe smack Wadatsumi at Chopper, and the latter deflects him upward to Noah to serve as a cushion. That seems most likely imo.
Edit: Didn't Robin already see the Poneglyph? I don't recall her going anywhere close to Noah, unless Oda kept the camera angles meaningless on purpose.
I'm sorry One Piece, but naruto had one of the best chapters of all time!!
You think so i'm not really impressed by the current hokages the older ones was so much better.
Wow I really notice Pandaman….I thought people here joked about it all the time. So Does this Pandaman often appear in many occasions ?
^OP wiki doesn't know any more than the rest of us. Keep that in mind.
BTW, on the panel with Hyouzou, the sfx sound is a pun.
It's both the sound of a blood pumping or liquid flowing, (doku) and the word "poison" (also doku).
The untranslated text under it is smirk
So yes it's quite obvious he's already got poison dripping, and about to fight with it.

I wasn't talking about hiatus, and I don't read every series in Jump, so I don't know for sure. No need to get rude.

After chapter 644, that is not necessary anymore.
What a stupendous chapter!
Brook is such a boss
Yes, six-month absence to go play video games are not "breaks".
/sarcasm
Lol, if you don't read other manga in Jump, why do you assume what happens in Jump?
You make no sense, little man.
(…) Edit: Didn't Robin already see the Poneglyph? I don't recall her going anywhere close to Noah, unless Oda kept the camera angles meaningless on purpose.
Yeah, she already found one in the sea forest, but someone here said there could be a 2nd poneglyph inside Noah. I just responded to that.

It's the same with FoxNews. Keep that in mind. 
Yay, 100th post!
