Looks like ussop has something up his sleeve. In the middle panel, you can see him grinning when law explains about the plan. I want to see something awesome during the yonkou all out war.

How to do you know it's not a mistranslation?
although you are right to suspect viz and nullof doing a mistranslation,i don't think it's the case this time.
i watched the K-F sub of episode 146,where this scene was.there's definitely emerald city there.also,i remember it was "emerald city" even in stephen's script.BTW,did anyony else see the reapperance of the mark on DD's sleeve?

I need Law's new shirt because of reasons.

He was doing something with Nami's weather thingy
PS: Do you guys noticed Zoro's scar on that page? (Luffy style)

Just looks like a skull and cross bones cuff link to me. For fashion purposes. Unless you don't mean in story importance, but as symbolism or something. Like foreshadowing DD's death.

Law said don flamingo is finished?
Did he know kuzan is coming and kulling don flamingo??
-
Why can Jokers "strings" hurt a logia, smoker, when they couldn´t hurt another logia, crocodile?
I doubt he was seriously trying to hurt Kuroko.
That was Doffy's way of greeting him and getting his attention. He clearly wanted to talk to him about being ditched earlier. -

I'm still quite sure that Green Bit is the next destination. They're going to Dressrosa, sure, but as Nami said, they're taking the LONG route, they won't get straight to it following the needle that points towards it. See it like Alabasta, if asked where they were going, they'd have answered "Alabasta", even though they stopped at Little Garden and Drum before reaching it.
They went to Little Garden because they refused Robin's offer of a shortcut. They only went to Drum by accident. The log pose would have taken a year to lock onto Little Garden. With Nami sick, they were navigating blind and were lucky enough to find Drum Island. It's unknown if Drum Island led to Alabasta next because they obtained an Eternal Pose from Bentham.

Actually guys if you look, Law has his hand up, he switched Zoro/Luffy's body, but I think nami was also switched with brook. Brook was drinking tea, now nami is, then brook is sleeping, so I think zoro's personalityh was in brook, and nami was in zoro, hence the "….".
aka crew clusterf`uck

You know, this would actually be awesome.
Not to be like "Oda doesn't make mistakes!!! NEVER!" Cause' I know it was..
It would just be awesome if law was sitting there switching them/their body parts around just for fun. -
see i knew it! just the other day i said aokiji will arrive and meet up with smoker. coz i know back then these two has that kind of "close" relationships. remember the first time aokiji and luffy fought? he mentioned about smoker telling him something. and then after the war smoker was asking aokiji's help to get transfered in the new world. thank goodness aokiji came in time or else smoker would have been dead
-
awesome chapter, we seem to be constantly bumping into huge names and things are very unpredictable. I cant even say who the biggest threat to the SH's is at this point. But i do see DD catching up to law somehow and beating him shitless. dispite currently facing the prospect of kuzan, who should be a step above DD in power.
-

It would just be awesome if law was sitting there switching them/their body parts around just for fun.I don't think it was, however, nothing really worth arguing about, i like to imagine it's a play on meditation balls, ya know, the two metal balls you circle around in your palm? Same movement, but instead it switches around the crews body/personalities.
-
Well for me there are some mayor points in this chapter
1. Once again Luffy and his crew are seen as normal rookie pirates who don't know shit about strength
2. Wano-country is going to have to w8 for atleast a year longer
3. Law has no idee how the strawhats work
4. Next time we will see smoker i expect him to have trained with kuzan and hopefully be on Admiral lvl becuese now he feels to weak to be a main marine force
-

Wait, you don't think it was a mistake? I know of the balls I have a few laying around the house to be honest. It would be awesome if that's what he was doing.
But, the tea Nami has was Robin's, she no longer has it when Nami does. and Brook is sleeping because he's an old man.
-
theory time:
franky's shirt JK (large caps) lmnopqrs (small caps)
the first letters of the persons who would join the major battle of strawhats (by order of appearance and joining forces), the first and last letters (J and S) are the one who would join the crew.
the capped letters (J and K) already had their parts (one done and one ongoing)
–-----J (jinbe) K (kinemon) L (law) M (momonosuke) N O P Q R S (smoker)–-----
wait for the guys who will tag along the strawhats name starts from N, O, P, Q, R.
J and S are the guys who would join the crew.
wild guess.
-
Then it would be Jinbe and Kinemon joining… in my opinion. Tho nic find could be something n.n

Why would Oda do something so cryptic like that?

@wolfwoof:
The more i think about it it does seem like Don still has the advantage
Assuming that Aokiji is in fact stronger than him, he still has two of his underlings who i assume can use haki to back him up
So it's a three on one since Smoker is absolutely useless. Should be fun to see how big the gap betwenn Aokiji and Don really is
Do you mean Baby and wing guy? They are like insects compared to Aokiji. They don't even count. As for Doflas I also doubt his Haki will help him much. Aokiji's powers are immense and Doflas has no way to protect himself. Both his physical strength and his strings are useless against Aokiji's powers
Honestly I have severe doubts that Dofla would even dare to fight Aokiji. I call it now. Doflas will run away. HARD
-
Crazy chapter! It's so satisfying to see Doflamingo in action now. For some reason just seeing Kinemon on the ship made me actually think about how he would fit in with the crew.
-

But, the tea Nami has was Robin's, she no longer has it when Nami does. and Brook is sleeping because he's an old man.
Has there been another instance where brooke was the one sleeping? I don't recall.
Also like to mention the fact "Vegapunk" discovered the devil fruits on the bloodstream, I think thats a big thing to take note of
-
BTW I have to say… I love Kinemon <3 and I really want tos ee his comrade and the "risk" of the SMILES... Maybe Chopper will soon discover it after studying Momonosuke
-
Im late to the partay!!!! I must say Doflamingo having conquerors haki isn't surprising at all. How about that Kuzan??
-
Holy Fuck the chapter was so epic it killed Arlong Park lol
-
Kinemon and Momo have someone to save at Dressrosa…Who could it Be I wonder? They know Kaidou's name too hmmmm? S.P.E.C.U.L.A.T.I.N.G TiMe
-
Either Kinemon wants to take Kaidou back to Wano or he has a vendetta with him.
Maybe Kaidou was his pet cat/dog before eating a rare DF :P
-
WOW I can’t even begin to name all the amazing things in this chapter…because I’m gonna do that after work so I can focus on this and read everyone's thought and all that jazz. This is one of my favorite chapters, ever. Everything coming together....it was....beautiful. SO BEAUTIFUL. Okay.
-
The plot thickens.
So Kinemon and Momo's story will be wrapped up with the Kaidou confrontation.
Praise Oda!!!
Now I can honestly say that I have some hope of Jinbe joining the crew in the next century.
-
Just when we fought that DD was in a pinch, he starts tearing shit up in the most badass way possible. Plus that son of a gun's got Haoushoku Haki. So awesome, so unbelievably awesome. I commend you, Oda-sensei.
-
After rereading this chapter a few times, I have this feeling that for some reason, Smoker didn't even try to fight back. Maybe Kuzan will confirm this next chapter.
-
Fact #1: samurai and Wa no kuni are known for their conflictual relationship with dragons.
Fact #2: Vegapunk had an interest for dragons, we also saw many dragons in this arc.
Fact #3: Kaidou is the strongest creature in the world.
Hypothesis: Kaidou is in fact a sentient dragon.
-
Bloody great chapter! Doflamingo was always one of my favourite characters and this chapter proves why.
The 'deadly' gas is such a pathetic fail though. For those trapped they would have to be allowed to breathe to inhale the poison that takes 12 frikkin hours to kill them. Am I the only one thinking it would be much more efficient for the coating gas to simply suffocate its victims? I know Oda had to find a way to make death circumvent-able but this is just silly.
Also poor Smoker. I agree with a few earlier posters who said that he's really decaying as a rival to Luffy. Oda keeps throwing hm under the bus to hype other characters. Someone suggested that Coby would be taking his place as a serious marine threat to Luffy. God I hope this isn't so. Besides the fact that I really dislike Coby it wouldn't be realistic for him to ever close the gap.
Anyway I'm really hyped up to see whats coming next. Two weeks is too long!

Well everyone including me assumes that Don would get beaten up by Aokiji
But if Don would be confident that he could hold his own against Aokiji having his crew there definetly isn't a bad thing, every distraction counts.
And if he chooses to fight it would be fun to see what a new world big shot and his boys can do against an admiral
-
I'll take a wild guess to who they're going to save…
JEWELRY BONNEY .
-
AWWWWW ain't dat the sweetest thang?*:wub:
-
I don't think we know the character Kinemon wants to save yet. I think it will probably be a new character, and possibly a new nakama!
-
One of the best chapters on the arc, definitely.
Let me just get the dissapointment out of the way, Smoker. Oda has successfully managed to destroy part of what I loved about Smoker in one arc, by making him everyone's bitch. I understand Tashigi getting beaten and being out of depth, she's always been weak.. but Smoker? Clearly, he didn't improve during the 2 year time skip and on top of getting beaten, someone also messed him up quite a bit during the 2 year period with the scar on his face. I'm no longer hyped about an inevitable final fight of Luffy vs Smoker. Smoker is clearly one of the big dogs in the Grand Line but clearly out of depth in New World, he simply cannot keep up. As for Coby catching up and being on par with Luffy, I've always thought of that quite weak. I like Coby but his rise in power would be quite unrealistic.
Another change from New World is what is with Law not being happy now? Someone needs to ask him, "Law, why so serious?" Someone needs to ask and find out the answer. The scene with Luffy where he puts his hand on him and he feels uncomfortable, it doesn't seem like the Law that's joking and smiling the entire time that we saw at Archipelago. Good thing he has his twisted sense of humor though, makes him a pretty funny prick.
I don't know why he thinks that Doflamingo is finished, because Kaido/Marines will catch/kill him, pure underestimation to the point of stupidity (doesn't seem likely), or is he somehow behind part of the plan of getting Kuzan to fight and finish off Doflamingo? I don't see him doing it tbh, I doubt there will be a fight or if there is it will be minor and Dofla will leave as he has more important issues to take care of. Anyways it is weird. Also Law mentions that there's a sleeping giant or something along the lines of someone here that make the difference in them winning the fight vs Kaido? Kuzan seems the only explanation here.
Also interesting that Oda didn't show his ice leg, I think it would be even more interesting if he had a normal leg, which would imply that maybe Law has some type of deal/alliance with Kuzan as well..? Someone already mentioned that the person in shadow shown earlier could still be someone else and Kuzan was in the island, so with another person coming in at PH, things would get even more interesting. So yes, I am interesting to see if they reveal another character. It would be epic if Law has formed an alliance with Kuzan, as that and SAD were 2 reasons he's been staying at Punk Hazard. Add Moria and his army of zombies that's even bigger than beforehand, and you have ex-Shichibukia with a massive army, ex-admiral Kuzan, current Shichibukai Law and the Luffy/Strawhats all going against Kaido, one of the 4 emperors. It's the equivalent of manga porn for fans if such a scenario happens. The fights alone will probably take 1/2 year to play out.
Also, I find it annoying that Kinemon is holding back information? Seriously, that has to be ridiculous considering what they've done for him so far. This part is just silly beyond reason. Hopefully Oda has a good reason for him not trusting them and I'm not really buying that Law is the reason since the SH's just stated they're forming an alliance and taking down Kaido and Doflamingo (both enemies).
I see no has said it, but it's about time that Doflamingo is next on the hit list, I've been waiting a really long time to see this guy get his ass beaten to an absolute pulp, he reminds me in the way of Crocodile.. I simply could not wait until his inevitable beating. I hope when it finally happens, it will be glorious. He's a very interesting character but the way he smiled all the time, I always wanted him to get brought down a few notches. He beat Smoker in a matter of seconds though, scary since it took Law quite a bit to beat and I thought Law beat him a bit too quickly himself…
I think Oda has put himself in quite a situation though regarding Doflamingo's crew. It is looking likely that the next showdown is Doflamingo's crew vs Strawhats and Heart Pirates.. but it doesn't feel right... Vergo is Dofla's right hand man, and as such usually such characters are always the 2nd in commend in terms of strength, yet he got crushed by Law. All 4 of his crew members were humiliated in their fights and seeing them come back to fight the Strawhats doesn't seem to good considering the beating they took, even if the stronger pirates are waiting in Dressrosa. Maybe we will see Dofla's older master (his dad) and extension of the family. I really don't want to see a Vergo vs Law fight, it was the best scene in the whole arc and it would be ruined by another fight.. this time Vergo puts up a better fight and shocker.. he looses again. Meh.. Hopefully Oda does the unexpected here, as everything else so far in the story is in regards of anything goes which is great.
Hopefully there's new fighters from Jack or other underworld people and not just Dofla's crew, please Oda. And I hope Law beats Doflamingo but that seems unlikely since the question.. who is Luffy going to fight then? Then there's also that that they're all going to Green Bit likely to pick up Law's crew and head there, which would make it 2 crews vs 1 (Dofla), and Dofla's crew currently is not that impressive.
Amazing chapter though, wow!
I mean, it appears that Dressrosa is one of the first 3 islands you could go to in the New World. What the hell? I would have expected an island of the strongest Warlord to be somewhere in the middle or more towards the end.
Doflamingo stronger than Mihawk? It really is shocking what a massive hard-on some of you have for Doflamingo.

I just love this image for some reason.
AWWWWW ain't dat the sweetest thang?*:wub:
Sorry meant to reply last message with this :P -
yea you are right, thats why akainu killed whitebeard
Yeah right!
!
Like blocking Akainu's attack while not even looking! WB is not even paying much of an attention toward magma brat.
Akainu must be so proud!!
WB is just sitting there! I mean anybody could've inflicted a serious injury.
So much effort, just to finish off a dying old man and still miserably fail! Akainu is really strong :P!
lol the jump is the best part. -
After rereading this chapter a few times, I have this feeling that for some reason, Smoker didn't even try to fight back. Maybe Kuzan will confirm this next chapter.
I agree with this 100% I think that he was trying to buy time for Law and the Strawhats.
Also is it confirmed that DD has CoA ? Because he was able to hurt Smoker, but maybe that's just a special power of his DF…
-
Another change from New World is what is with Law not being happy now? Someone needs to ask him, "Law, why so serious?" Someone needs to ask and find out the answer.
How happy can a guy be when his bear has been stolen
-
Aokiji and don flamingo arent evently matched!
Aokiji is yOnkou level , remember how scared domln flamingo was about an admiral?
Akainu blast half of whitebeard face and survived wbs strongest attack like nothing
Re
But whitebeard was OLD. Just because a admiral hurt WB…that specific Admiral or other admirals should be considered yonkou level now?...no.
-
Oda managed to close Punk Hazard with a chapter that's just as amazing as the first. How does he do it?
Anyway this is the perfect One-Piece chapter. Amazing humour, fantastic plot developments, and a killer of an ending. I was laughing throughout, and my jaw dropped at several points. Just a fantastic job.
This two week break is going to be killer.
-
Hypothesis: Kaidou is in fact a sentient dragon.
I think you've hit the nail on the head there!
-
@Nex:
This two week break is going to be killer.
Fortunately he left us with a whole bunch of stuff to discuss and speculate about
-
I don't really know why people are surprised with Smoker ending up being fodder. The only reason why he even was a problem to Luffy pre-timeskip was because Luffy couldn't hit him. So Luffy ran away most of the time. Then there's also the thing were he only became a Vice Admiral. We're at the point now were Luffy is going after Yonkous.

Having your entire crew murdered can do that to you.

I don't remember being any mention of his crew being killed…?
