I'm sure that Oda will make Ussopp(or Sogeking) the comander of 8000 men army for one of the final battles,
That would be awesome

I just realized one here:
CHOPPER: Seastone??
NAMI: It's a stone that nullifies Devil Fruit Powers! It has the same effect as dropping you in the sea.
Interesting to note, considering that, just now in the manga, Nami helped Franky devise a plan to drop Chopper into water.
Ussopp's mask had to fall of for a reason, I'm thinking they took a picture and will put it in his bounty (if he gets one) http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0VQDlAvEYkTDgzt1gNbXvwvQCljbInTVN7Dd2AVh!ipUB9PjT8RpdqOkXyXjD3QUv8ck1Qjhd!fukJG6AZqbbWkCKsVj2QRLondtfE7!BT!4!o24wQ*36lm!!9PYh!H/One_Piece-381-04.png?dc=4675541040214371183
After Luffy met Nami and she let him beat up Buggy's goons:
http://groups.msn.com/onepiecemangav-3/volume2.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=298
Then after the Ace encounter, Nami sews up a piece of paper on his hat's ribbon.
http://groups.msn.com/OnePieceMangav-3/volume18.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=3394
If this is foreshadowing, the piece of paper is possibly a treasure map or something relating to treasure/One Piece.
xD Indeed it does.
I really hope they don't use a terrified/surprised pose for Ussop (if he gets a bounty) like he had when his mask fell off.. I woudl much prefer they use a super heroic one from Sogeking, and allow him to weild dual identities.
I dunno…the dual identities thing is an interesting idea,and I wouldn;t mind it, But I love the idea of the SH's wanted posters lined up...luffy smiling, everyone looking fierce, then usopp's like WAHHHH!
I'd doubt Nami or Chopper's bounties will look fierce. Not quite a "Luffy-face", but not like Zoro's picture.
I don't know if any of these were mentioned in past 23 pages, but I found these in Mixi and thought interesting…
I was reading Mixi and found this interesting.

Remember what Sanji tole Usopp before fighting Jabs? Something only you can do. Wel.. I think it's been foreshadowed since Alabasta (see picture).
So, what is something that only Usopp can do? "Run away from enemies you can't beat" Hmmm… Maybe Usopp plans a devious, most clever getaway from Buster Call?

"Lost City of Gold, Emerald City, One Piece"?
Three things Bellamy mentions and two of them we know of.
So I guess Emerald City should be encountered by SH soon?
maybe zoro's next opponent will be a diamond DF user
That would be funny…
The rising tension between Smoker and his higher-ups.
I can see a mini-story involving Smoker where something the higher-ups do push Smoker over the edge and defects to serve justice his own way. Maybe a nice dialogue between Smoker and Tashigi along the lines of "These men are the closest thing to pure beings I've ever met. Lead them well, Tashigi, I'm done with the Marines." Then it would split up to Smoker and Tashigi's own stories.
Just a thought…
@Master:
That would be funny…
I'd put my money on it
I'm sure it's been mentioned before but I hope that the strawhats will encounter sniper Island, and much to ussop's suprise there'll be a statue of a legenary warrior that looks like sogeking (like the warrior in skypeia), and then the villagers will treat ussop like a king
Oda does foreshadow alot of the parts in One Piece like in the Arlong/Baratie Arc we learn alot more about the Goverment officials. I like how he does this alot. It makes One Piece a better story.
Even though because he tells us these things soo early on we do sorta forget about them in the near future.

I sort of see Sniper Island as a place that Usopp "goes to" mentally when he needs to pull off a Zoro-esque "one-hit-victory". Like when Zoro feels the breaths… breath... breathings of everything, living or not, Usopp would see just the island and his target. Then he'd aim at it, without distraction, and fire 100 shots, 100 hits! Lu-lu-la-la-lu~
He can shoot right on a mouse's eye,
LOCK ON
He'll shoot right on your heart, so say goodbye!
LOCK ON!
He comes from the Sniper Island, it's always been that way!
Lu-lu-lu, lu-lu-la-la~
You better run away!
So-ge-ge-so-ge-so-ge
Sogeking! Oh yeah. Them's some rhyming lyrics.
I can kind of see Smoker becoming leader of the Nval-Marines by stories end or something. Just seems to be in his character/
I don't think so. Smoker doesn't like his higher-ups or the basic policy of the government/navy. If he ends up that way, he won't enjoy it. Also, the fact that it's been proven that Smoker's abilities and cunning could get him promoted to vice-admiral, but he is very defiant and doesn't follow orders, so he probably won't be promoted.
maybe zoro's next opponent will be a diamond DF user
I think that got translated wrong. I remember it being "that would be a waste" and that was why mr.1 smiled after losing. It was more of a joke.
but I like alot of these. I was wondering if anyone could find any foreshadowing of sanji and zoro's new attacks in the cp9 arc.

Zoro's attacks, no. Sanji, well…it may be a bit more "backshadowing", if you will.
Remember Zeff's pirate name? "Red Shoes," just like the color Sanji's foot becomes when his new technique is used. Plus, this may be a coincedence, but Sanji uses the same leg to use for that attack that Zeff lost. Plus, back when he was fighting Pearl, he said something along the lines of "You can't be cook if you're afraid of fire," or so I recall.
Just saw Monster Time Omake and saw Dragon Luffy - Lugyao
So I thought maybe it was Oda foreshadowing that Luffy's dad is Dragon and also the whole let's help Rodusa kinda sounds like a foreshadow to what happen in Enies Lobby
What if Mihawk was the one who killed Kuina
Mihawk did not kill kunia she fell down a flight of stairs
I don't know if this happened in the manga, but it did in the anime.
When Sanji fought Mr.2, there was a part Mr.2 said you devil to him. And then again in Sky Piea Sanji mentions that he's the devil of the blue sea or something like that.
And Sanji's new attacks are called devil.
My favorite foreshadows are Genzo's pinwheel (both for Luffy's pinwheel move and the baby Nami flashback at the end of the Arlong arc) and the giant sea monsters that were really sky people shadows (seeing Luffy's gigantic shadow being beamed down from Skypeia is my favorite moment of that arc).
I forgot a bunch of them, but I had a ton I thought of that when you re-watch it, it appears to be hintong at something, that has notr yet happened yet.
The only major problem I have seen so far is that at the beginning virtually noone really mentioned the World Government. It was all about the Marines. Then recently, it seems like everyone knows of the existewnce of the Marines, The World Government, and CP's 1-8. Everyone knows about other Pirates and even though you'd expect something mentioned early on, it's not there.
My favourite forshadowing was when the Strawhats met Johnny and Yosaku. They dropped a whole lot of bounty leaflets, and Nami picks one up and starts shivering. I was dying to know who that was.

The WG is significant in the Grand Line in part because there are full countries in it. These countries are in many cases WG participants, so the WG's political machinations are probably more important.
The East Blue doesn't seem to have anything bigger than city-states, with the exception of the Arlong Empire.
I'm not entirely sure why the Marine patrols the East Blue; it could be a "service for hire", or as an attempt to keep crime rates low before they posed a threat to WG participant states.

that's been resolved…it was a bounty for arlong
edit: oh wait...nevermind
Mihawk did not kill kunia she fell down a flight of stairs
Wait, i thought 4kids said that
Mihawk did not kill kunia she fell down a flight of stairs
lol i remember that…thats sad...very sad way to die...
somehow...i can imagine that no swordsman can beat zoro...but he ends up falling off the stairs and die
Wait, i thought 4kids said that
its the same for both version…besides the fact that 4kids say she lived…but cant fight anymore...
What if tashigi is actually zoro's childhood friend.
We all know that zoro's childhood friend died.
But the reason seems a bit stupid falling off the stairs?, not a way for such a swords women to go.
Maybe her master didn't want her to train anymore and fight with zoro everyday, and he knew the only way to stop him, was to make zoro think she was dead.
Later she joined the marines .
Well it's a long shot, but might be possible.
impossible
because if Tashigi is Kuinia, then she would have recognized him once she saw him or his poster….... and Kuinia isn't THAT clumsy.......
I was thinking a bit about what Kaku said after Zoro defeated him, about how it's hard for an assassin to get a new job. It made me think he rather enjoyed being a shipwright and that he would like to do something else than being an agent.
Maybe it's just the wishful thinking of a fangirl but I wouldn't be too surprised if we got a cover story about Kaku leaving the CP9, to go work in a zoo or something. XD (Well actually that'd kinda fit, since if he left he'd probably be seen as a deserter by the WG and then his full giraffe form would come in as a handy disguise considering how few people has actually seen it).
Of course, this provides that he actually survived Zoro's Asura and the Tower collapsing and all that, but y'know, Pell, anyone?
Just saw Monster Time Omake and saw Dragon Luffy - Lugyao

damn, good observation right there…
OMG, so if jinginai time is foreshadowing, luffy might end up killing his nakama... which i hope it doesnt happen... yeah... i doubt it'll happen...
another foreshadowing i remember is Dr Hiluluk's speech before his death, about inherited will...
and also, loguetown... the town of the beginning and the end... i have a feeling one piece will end in loguetown also...
jinginai time could just be referencing he will have fights over time with his crew… Zoro, Usopp. Both have fought him.
damn, good observation right there…
and also, loguetown... the town of the beginning and the end... i have a feeling one piece will end in loguetown also...
Actually, if it should end where it begun, it should end Fuschia (Luffy's home)town, since it started here.
Actually, if it should end where it begun, it should end Fuschia (Luffy's home)town, since it started here.
He's referring to the fact that Loguetown has a hidden meaning: Prologue and Epilogue. It's also where Gol D. Roger was born and died (Though if he was raised there is another story).
Oda's most common foreshadowing technique is hiding someone's eyes. I don't see why, though. The only eyes he draws differently are Robin's and Olivia's. XD And Wanze. That's about it. Everyone else has identical eyes.
But that makes me wonder… Akainu's eyes were not revealed, neither are Roger's. Though Roger is most likely Nico Robin's father, it's up in the air, to be honest. Same with who Akainu is related to.
Remember? Garp's eyes were not shown and later we find out that he's Luffy's grandfather.
@Fire Fist:
Remember? Garp's eyes were not shown and later we find out that he's Luffy's grandfather.
I think he chose not to show Garp's eyes because, Garp is drawn identically to the Romance Dawn version of Luffy's Grandpa, including the scar along his eye. If we had seen the scar and such during Garp's appearance in the cover story then one of the biggest revelations so far would have been blown out of the water.
I'll bet one of the mermen (possibly the one who may join) is a laternfish
why you ask?
well look at it
where have we seen a fish that looks like that before
since this seems like a one piece analysis topic, Ill tell you the biggest symbol of the enies lobby arc.
Doors.
and foreshadowing:
when blueno said to luffy. "if a door is opened, it can be closed" which is just waht they did to the gates of justice.
Heh.I wonder why no one mention this.
Marco and Joss way back when Rockstar was sent to deliver the message to Whitebeard.Marco was the one who bluntly said no when Rockstar tell him whether he was famous or not and Joss was the one in the background.
@Fire Fist:

If you compare Shanks + Luffy's eyes, Luffy has a lot more rounded eyes.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Aarockstaraaaa1oo.jpg
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Monkey_D_Luffy.png
A lot of characters have different eyes to each other, if you pay attention to them. Its true the style for drawing them is the same and there are many eyes simulair to each other, but not everyone has identical eyes.
But yeah, Robin's and Olivia's are note worthy different to everyone else's.
another foreshadowing.. i think:
when luffy had his first wanted poster it was 30,000,000 belli,
which featured ussop's face by the way…
then after ennies lobby, sogeking had a bounty and guess what?
also 30,000,000 belli...
The foreshadowing im looking most forward to being answered involves Blackbeard… When he is speaking to Luffy when he is first introduced, Teach talks about being patient if you want to achieve dreams. Obviously, BB has been waiting a long time under the shadow of WB for the right time... now that he has started acting... one wonders what his real dream is, because in his first introduction... BB does not seem like a truly evil guy.
impossible
because if Tashigi is Kuinia, then she would have recognized him once she saw him or his poster….... and Kuinia isn't THAT clumsy.......
She DIED after tripping down a couple steps. If that isn't CLUMSY in OP LAND where people live after getting blown up by atom bombs, I am not sure what is.
I think someone said it before, but the most obvious foreshadowing is Bounties and alot of money mentioned.
Nami's 100M - Luffy's 100M bounty
The 300M Skypiea gold - Luffy's 300M bounty.
Whenever big money is involved, that amout will become a bounty [and possibly only Luffy's].
Another foreshadowing is, of course, Franky and Luffy's drawing. If not Franky, then the next merman nakama is that weirdass one.
maybe tashigi is long lost twin sister of kuina?
