      I still think Dryish is outgrumping you on that front. He will probably get to be the president of the club and you'd always be at his shadow of disappointed grumpiness. . .

      I… this makes me happy. :')

        @Monkeylover:

        Still idiotic and out of characters. Lots of people gave reasons for it. It a Detail without significance. Maybe there is an elaborate plan behind it. Most likely there is one. But having Issho step out of character like this (or you could say him making his statement ) for fake suspense is laughable. In the End he will be providing Luffy with a fair battleground against Doflamingo because Luffy is going there. So Fujitora will be going there and he will be blown away by the will of the great mugiwara and stop some of Doflas dirty trick so that Luffy can kick his ass. It forseable and pretty boring. We know that he can basically fly and is a fucking admiral. He could be at the rooftop in a fucking second and if Dofla loves his crew so much, as some people claim, Fuji should propose to Dofla, either i kill your whole crew or you release that fucking cage right now.

        This will never happen, simply for the reason (and yea this reason count) for plot advancment, Oda wants the story to have depth, not getting to Dofla the easy way.

        Any way I'm out for today, fun day 🙂

          An early draft at a purple guy to do list.

          Step one. Disconnect floating palace.

          Step two. Float them up into outer space or drop them in the ocean.

          Step three. Punch Law just because

          Step four. Drop by the ramen shop.

            I think I found a small error.
            kyros has 2 stars.
            http://i.imgur.com/PfU4dru.png

            but in translation and the raw ishuhui shown he has the reward of 100 million
            but the logic is that it would have a bounty of 200 million.
            http://i.imgur.com/zlUHI5s.png
            someone has to take this raw Japanese doubts?

            No, that panel show two fooder against Kyros, so it's not strange for that one to say "Give me that 100m berry", they plan to split the reward

              Nothing guarantee Dofla will not just kill them afther this 12 are done, and from their knowing of Dofla they should understand he will not keep his promise.

              Well, fucked then. Either they believe him and die or go against him and die.

                  The last panel is great… three of the best characters together, pretty much.
                  Maybe by grabbing them by the neck, Luffy's sick of Zoro getting lost and not beating Pika, and Law's attempts to make fail plans and break their alliance.
                  Well not really, but that at least does make them a little incompatable, lol.
                  Law: "Instead of offing Caesar right away or giving him to Smoker/Aokiji so that Kaidou beats Doflamingo, let's get involved in a big plan that doesn't work for reasons I'm not fully explaining and struggle every step of the way! Don't worry, as bad as this is, I'm sure your four crew members are okay in that little ship against one of the Yonkou's! Our alliance is randomly over too, BTW."
                  Luffy: "That does it. No handcuff removal, no chance to heal your life-threatening gunshot wounds, and no more talking, I'm grabbing you by the throat and doing this shit my way now."

                    @kouch_lee:

                    But, the thing is. . .he IS prioritizing Law & Luffy over Doffy. The translations differ in the reaction from Bastille; Mangapanda seems more nonchalant, while Stream is more "vocal", literally saying "Don't capture Doflamingo??". I take it as a "What the fuck are you on???". I see TLC sees it like that too, and I don't know, though, if that's the right translation or what. I guess CCC or Bluebeard could shed definitive light on the matter, but in the end, what changes is Bastille's reaction.

                    I guess I agree with stream, then. The interrobang and phrasing on Bastille's part suggests that off-panel, Fuji just said something like "We're not going after DD." It's definitely a reactionary line. I might have done it as, "So we're not going after Doflamingo!?"

                          Ask yourself this: Do you really think Dofla will let them go at the end? (given they'd be successful, of course)

                          So they have the following two choices in their heads.

                          1. Go against Dofla and die.
                          2. Follow his orders and maybe survive.

                          Wow you really blew my mind open dude.

                              i dont think the argument 1) either go against Doffy and die or 2) take out Luffy and co. really works either because Luffy and co. is pretty fucking impressive: the son of Dragon/grandson of Garp/400 mil pirate/general wonderkid, a Shichibukai, Luffy's right hand man, Dragon's right hand man. That's only assuming they don't know they also have the all-time champ of the Colosseum on their side too.
                              given that Doflamingo is incredibly untrustworthy the best and most reliable option is clearly to aid the Strawhearts or let them deal with Doflamingo

                              i think the best way to see these goons is as incredibly 1-dimensional, ungrateful, back-stabbing pieces of shit without a single clue. I honestly sort of hate them more than Doflamingo for turning on the man who freed them from what would have been a lifetime of pretty much the worst possible form of slavery

                                I thought that too! It seemed like the right moment.

                                  Hmm, I'm still wondering where Bellamy and Jora are in this arc. Jora hasn't been seen for longer, but I'm really curious to see what Bellamy is up to. He'll make a badass entrance somewhere hopefully.

                                      On the topic of Fujitora. I actually find his actions reasonable to some extent.

                                      His theme is blind Justice, however he rules himself through a somehow strict code. This means, as far as I understand, that his word has an incredible ammount of weight to dictate his actions. In other words, when Fuji told Doflamingo that he would turn a blind eye on whatever happened from then on until he left the Island he shackled his actions to his words. And by the code he is ruled he has put himself in a pretty tight situation. Nevertheless, he seems to be taking mental notes on anything and everything.

                                      I Believe that some readers are experimenting a degree of frustration because they tried to match Fuji´s sense of Justice to that of Aokiji, which even if they overrlap in some aspects are not the same. In fact, Fujis sense of justice can be pretty useful to a Fleet admiral that strives for absolute Justice. As Fuji said, he is just a blind man.

                                      Some readers are saying that Fuji's main Objective is to save citicenz. To be fair this is not completely true, by his code it should be that way however, we have seen that he once said "he had to fight the one who fed him" or something along this lines. In other words, Fuji is the type of Character that will follow an order even if he is against it; this aspect of him and his word code is what I believe is inciting some bashful comments from some readers.

                                      Now, readers seem to believe that what we read this chapter was what Fujitora was "seeing" which is not necessarilly the case. Leaving the fact that he is blind apart, there wasn´t any scene that actually showed Fujitora hearing those acusations against Doflamingo. How big do you think that kingdom is a couple of blocks? God even if it was a marine, if Fujitora would be near by do you believe he would leave him to hurt a mother and her child?.

                                      I agree that Doflamingo gave a pretty revealing Speach. However after stating those bounties the city became an arena, and he actually made it seem that what was happening was not "directly" made by him, but because some intruders pried a bit too much into his personal bussiness.

                                        given that Doflamingo is incredibly untrustworthy the best and most reliable option is clearly to aid the Strawhearts or let them deal with Doflamingo

                                        You talk like Doula Mongo isn't impressive himself.

                                        340 Million bounty that's been frozen for 10 years, Warlord, kingpin of the underworld, crew of 2000 soldiers including 3 monsters aside from Doula Mongo himself (one of them being a guy that can remodel the entire island) and +10 officers, technically supported by the Marines which include a Admiral and a Vice-Admiral. There's also a psychological factor there as Doula could easily make them slaves again. Not to mention that some of the wanted people are somewhat out of comission, like Usopp.

                                        I mean, if the 5-star guy is in such a deplorable state because of Trebòl, then why would them place their hopes on lower stars (people who pissed Doula to a lesser degree)? This was actually a smart move as it gives away the illusion that Luffy and Co. are much weaker than they actually are.

                                        You should try using an inside perspective. For those guys, Doula is clearly more fearsome and has the upper hand.

                                          That's still exactly his plan, he only did that to let Kaidou kill Doflamingo as far as we know. You want to go through tHe door instead?

                                          It made Usopp's five stars that much more funny, but whatever.

                                          "my strategy was to leave Doflamingo alive to make him clash with Kaido. If you kill him now, then Kaido's rage for losing the smile factory will all end upon us. We'll have to fight directly against one of the Yonko." Kaido goes after Doflamingo gives them a higher chance, when people were saying he had no interest in Kaido. The main problem with killing Doflamingo now for Law is that Kaido will only focus on them rather than DD, which Law and Luffy could take advantage of.

                                          Nothing more hilarious when salty people can't admit they're wrong. What would you like Oda to write for the next chapter to spell it out for you that Law still wants to take Kaido down? Make sure it's written well enough and by today so there's enough time for me to mail it to Oda. We have to be extra specific.

                                          Let the tears flow, I know it hurts to be wrong.

                                          –- Update From New Post Merge ---

                                          @STP_PS:

                                          On the topic of Fujitora. I actually find his actions reasonable to some extent.

                                          His theme is blind Justice, however he rules himself through a somehow strict code. This means, as far as I understand, that his word has an incredible ammount of weight to dictate his actions. In other words, when Fuji told Doflamingo that he would turn a blind eye on whatever happened from then on until he left the Island he shackled his actions to his words. And by the code he is ruled he has put himself in a pretty tight situation. Nevertheless, he seems to be taking mental notes on anything and everything.

                                          I Believe that some readers are experimenting a degree of frustration because they tried to match Fuji´s sense of Justice to that of Aokiji, which even if they overrlap in some aspects are not the same. In fact, Fujis sense of justice can be pretty useful for a Fleet admiral that strives for absolute Justice. As Fuji said, he is just a blind man.

                                          Some readers are saying that Fuji's main Objective is to save citicenz. To be fair this is not completely true, by his code it should be that way however, we have seen that he once said "he had to fight the one who fed him" or something along this lines. In other words, Fuji is the type of Character that will follow an order even if he is against it; this aspect of him and his word code is what I believe is inciting some bashful comments from some readers.

                                          Now, readers seem to believe that what we read this chapter was what Fujitora was "seeing" which is not necessarilly the case. Leaving the fact that he is blind apart, there wasn´t any scene that actually showed Fujitora hearing those acusations against Doflamingo. How big do you think that kingdom is a couple of blocks? God even if it was a marine, if Fujitora would be near by do you believe he would leave him to hurt a mother and her child?.

                                          I agree that Doflamingo gave a pretty revealing Speach. However after stating those bounties the city became an arena, and he actually made it seem that what was happening was not "directly" made by him, but because some intruders pried a bit too much into his personal bussiness.

                                          It's hard to take Fujitora too seriously when this arc he's been all about condensing the damage to the citizens, and it's revealed that their King is going to slaughter them or make others do it as Fujitora's character does a 180' hiding behind "I'll look away" theme. Oda shouldn't have emphasized early on how much Fuji seems to care for people when such a massive inconsistency shows up shortly before the climax of the arc.

                                            Not really. He also put old man Riku on the same level as Sabo. In some sense the stars represent strength, but Doflamingo at best only insinuated this, and when he marked out Usopp, it was only because he was the guy who "pissed him off the most," not because he was the biggest threat. Further, everyone who was released from the toy spell knows that all Usopp had to do to free the toys was defeat Sugar. None of the toys seemed to believe that he was invincible or immensely powerful, just that he was a savior sent from the heavens.

                                            You should try using an inside perspective. For those guys, Doula is clearly more fearsome and has the upper hand.

                                            Only marginally more fearsome though. My original post never suggested that he wasn't impressive, just that given the situation and the fact that he is almost guaranteed not to keep his word, it would have been immensely more sensible to help out Luffy and co. or just lay low and let them take care of the situation, as they already are.
                                            These people lost everything, including their bodies. They were treated like something less than garbage by Doflamingo, and now here he is showing his true colors and talking about how he's going to "rule with an iron fist." Here, the man who exploited them completely so that they can fund his business and rake in money for the Donquixote family, is claiming to play by the rules and hand out some cash. The question of "maybe" he's going to keep to his words shouldn't be relevant. It is not a maybe. It is an absolutely not. A supposed "inside perspective" mandates a meditation upon the severe psychological trauma these people have undergone for days upon days. The tears, the seething rage, the feelings of profound inadequacy and helplessness, the pure ressentiment that is being a slave. Anyone who spent years upon years not able to touch, forgotten by their family and friends, being beaten by Doflamingo's goons, pissed on by the world and performing slave labour incessantly should not be considering the question of "maybe's." He is essentially untrustworthy.

                                              ppl think that fugitora can just go to doflamingo , one shot him and end that game at once
                                              no that won't be happening even if he wanted to , you know what happens when island busters fight ? islands get busted
                                              specially when so many people are joining this fight , even if he managed to capture doflamingo somehow
                                              he will still be obligated to fight and capture law , luffy and now more possibly sabo .. no matter how strong u admiral lovers think he is
                                              he won't win the fight , he will lose doflamingo , the island will be pretty much fucked up and he will gain nothing from all this ..
                                              so think about it first , gain a strong ally or make him your enemy in that situation ?

                                                  Why? unless you are obssessed with her joining I dont see why you felt that way.

                                                  I thought that too! It seemed like the right moment.

                                                  Right indication for what? there are no hints of her joining, nothing is pointing to that at this point, I dont see why it was the right moment when there was 0 build up to it, 0.

                                                      Two or three times I would guess. It gave the impression in his intro arc that he is focusing on citizens to ensure they will be ok. I don't remember Akainu (lol) or Kizaru ever really mentioning it since they've been introduced. Aokiji maybe in Robin's flashback, otherwise I don't remember in regards to him either..

                                                        Two or three times I would guess. It gave the impression in his intro arc that he is focusing on citizens to ensure they will be ok. I don't remember Akainu (lol) or Kizaru ever really mentioning it since they've been introduced. Aokiji maybe in Robin's flashback, otherwise I don't remember in regards to him either..

                                                        Akainu or Kizaru? One is to obsesive and the other one is too full of wind in his head to think in complicated stuff as protecting citicens lol.

                                                        I was asking about the number of times it was hinted at Fujitora wanting to protect citicenz, because it wouldn´t be the same to have the "for the people" motive apeear once as opposed to it being hinted several times.Can someone in the forum help me with this doubt please. as in with screenshots, I´m a bit too lazy to search for them, I must sadly admit…"Sad 👅face"....:ninja:

                                                          Considering Luffy's current bounty is higher then Doflamingo's former one…

                                                          I dunno, it does not really strike me as something that would happen... people were ready to lynch Doflamingo at any second before Birdcage went down. His forces did not grown in numbers since then. Why the sudden change to "we can't do it" mentality?

                                                          It's called money. People do weird things when money is involve. Sadly, that is the nature of us humans. the other group that didn't turn into toys are doing it because it's an easier route for them. 12 is better than 2000. There is nothing illogical in what is going on in Dressrosa at the moment.

                                                          IF YOU DIE, I'LL KILL YOU….

I just cannot recall many more so if someone could post them it would be a huge help to weight the "citicens are my priority perspective"

                                                            He his whole justification for targeting Luffy is the marines duty to minimize the damage done to the populace.

                                                              You talk like Doula Mongo isn't impressive himself.

                                                              340 Million bounty that's been frozen for 10 years, Warlord, kingpin of the underworld, crew of 2000 soldiers including 3 monsters aside from Doula Mongo himself (one of them being a guy that can remodel the entire island) and +10 officers, technically supported by the Marines which include a Admiral and a Vice-Admiral. There's also a psychological factor there as Doula could easily make them slaves again. Not to mention that some of the wanted people are somewhat out of comission, like Usopp.

                                                              I mean, if the 5-star guy is in such a deplorable state because of Trebòl, then why would them place their hopes on lower stars (people who pissed Doula to a lesser degree)? This was actually a smart move as it gives away the illusion that Luffy and Co. are much weaker than they actually are.

                                                              You should try using an inside perspective. For those guys, Doula is clearly more fearsome and has the upper hand.

                                                              very good point, Although once the peeps go after the 12 they're fucked LOL. hopefully they change their minds after getting dropped multiple times. Can't see any of the 12 being severly injured. Well atleast not as much as law already is haha

                                                                Pointing at this page is brilliant. Mainly because he´s actually saying that he will deal first with the SH´s and then he´ll go against Doflamingo. Yes, this enhances my belief that Fuji is commited to his word, so he will keep his justice disregarding if the situation changes. This trait makes him quite dangerous to whomever he considers his main Objective

                                                                  Not really. He also put old man Riku on the same level as Sabo. In some sense the stars represent strength, but Doflamingo at best only insinuated this, and when he marked out Usopp, it was only because he was the guy who "pissed him off the most," not because he was the biggest threat. Further, everyone who was released from the toy spell knows that all Usopp had to do to free the toys was defeat Sugar. None of the toys seemed to believe that he was invincible or immensely powerful, just that he was a savior sent from the heavens.
                                                                  Only marginally more fearsome though. My original post never suggested that he wasn't impressive, just that given the situation and the fact that he is almost guaranteed not to keep his word, it would have been immensely more sensible to help out Luffy and co. or just lay low and let them take care of the situation, as they already are.
                                                                  These people lost everything, including their bodies. They were treated like something less than garbage by Doflamingo, and now here he is showing his true colors and talking about how he's going to "rule with an iron fist." Here, the man who exploited them completely so that they can fund his business and rake in money for the Donquixote family, is claiming to play by the rules and hand out some cash. The question of "maybe" he's going to keep to his words shouldn't be relevant. It is not a maybe. It is an absolutely not. A supposed "inside perspective" mandates a meditation upon the severe psychological trauma these people have undergone for days upon days. The tears, the seething rage, the feelings of profound inadequacy and helplessness, the pure ressentiment that is being a slave. Anyone who spent years upon years not able to touch, forgotten by their family and friends, being beaten by Doflamingo's goons, pissed on by the world and performing slave labour incessantly should not be considering the question of "maybe's." He is essentially untrustworthy.

                                                                  About Usopp, they clearly think he's some sort of deity who by all accounts should be a badass just like Buggy. If Doula gives him a 5-star rating, then it's reasonable for a person in-story to believe that he's the strongest guy out there. Riku's strength is irrelevant as the gladiators should not know how strong he is.

                                                                  But the problem is that if they go against Doula, the chances of them dying are even more likely considering Doula's ruthlessness.

                                                                  Those people have just got released from a fate of eternal slavery, they aren't going to throw away their lives just after being freed. Doula might be untrustworthy, but it's not like there's an actual choice here. People are afraid of dying. Also, remember that those people are the same people who thought Usopp was some kind of savior. That just goes to show that they are very weak-minded.

                                                                  It's easy to talk about emotions of rage and all, but in the end, fear is stronger. Throw a bit of greed in there and Doula has the perfect recipe for emotional manipulation. If Usopp can make those people believe that he's the 2nd coming of Jesus without even trying, then Doula can easily turn those people around with some effort.

                                                                  1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 0

                                                                    I think Fujitora is just completeing the objective that he was given. Sakazuki sent him to Dressrosa to investigate/eliminate the Straw Hat/Law alliance. Going rouge and taking out Doflamingo himself before proposing the abolition of the Shichibukai at the Reverie or even Sakazuki returning from getting answers for DD's fake resignation stunt may bring unnecessary problems.

                                                                    He still shows concern for the citizens, asking to "Try to suppress the people running wild as best you can". But I don't see what people where expecting from Fujitora to be so upset over one chapter. He's still a Marine and Marines are still enemies of the One piece story. Maybe people wanted another "Good soul" marine like Garp or Kuzan?

                                                                      Why? unless you are obssessed with her joining I dont see why you felt that way.

                                                                      Right indication for what? there are no hints of her joining, nothing is pointing to that at this point, I dont see why it was the right moment when there was 0 build up to it, 0.

                                                                      It felt like one of those things Luffy would say In east blue to cheer up a crewmate. I love your signature by the way. There was Zero build up to Luffy asking brook to join also. It just felt like one of those fun in the moment, Luffy's crazy and unpredictable moments.

                                                                      ![](images/smilies/ipb/sleeping.png "Sleeping")

                                                                        You all complained that DD was going to name Fuji and it was the worst decision Oda has ever made. This week comes, it's the complete opposite of what you said and you're still in an uproar. Fuji knows a battle with DD would last too long, cause too many casualties (from the fight and birdcage+parasite), and honestly is not a sure win. The man simply believes it'll be easier to capture the 12 names than it would be to enrage the entire crew of DD. More than half the names were already on his list to capture because he believes them to be a threat to civilians, adding a notable name from the Revolutionaries the decision should be obvious.

                                                                        Also, lets not forget Fuji's biggest threat isn't dying. It's that there will be civilian and military casualties regardless of his decision, he and all his men will have never existed if he loses, and all his efforts will be in vain.

                                                                        I think it would benefit you all to know that only we know Luffy is going to come out on top as the hero. Nobody on that island except like 20 people believe that is even a remote possibility.

                                                                        –-----

                                                                        I've been tossing around the idea that Fuji's fruit is the cause of his blindness.. thoughts?

This week comes, it's the complete opposite of what you said and you're still in an uproar. Fuji knows a battle with DD would last too long, cause too many casualties (from the fight and birdcage+parasite), and honestly is not a sure win. The man simply believes it'll be easier to capture the 12 names than it would be to enrage the entire crew of DD. More than half the names were already on his list to capture because he believes them to be a threat to civilians, adding a notable name from the Revolutionaries the decision should be obvious.

                                                                                                Also, lets not forget Fuji's biggest threat isn't dying. It's that there will be civilian and military casualties regardless of his decision, he and all his men will have never existed if he loses, and all his efforts will be in vain.

                                                                                                I think it would benefit you all to know that only we know Luffy is going to come out on top as the hero. Nobody on that island except like 20 people believe that is even a remote possibility.

                                                                                                I think that his blindness could be born blind, I gotta ask you if you could please explain further about your idea that Fuji's fruit is the reason for his blindness. I think that either We'll get an answer about blindness in SBS or it'll be speculation as to the reason for his blindnes.

                                                                                                I still, have no idea what I'm doing

Et least he didn't list Fujitora. I still think the plan ils stupid if it's not a diversion . Glorious to see the ex prisoners asking god Usopp to die.

Sure fighting 1 emperor is better then 2 but the way it's worded makes it seem like he wants to avoid fighting an emperor all together, must be a translation thing. The marines are really bothering me, isn't Ciphor Pol on there along with Fuji? I swear something tells me Aokiji would have just frozen the whole island by now, Kizaru would have blown up Doflamingos house(ooooooo~~ I think I over did it~) and Akainu would have slapped the shit out of doflamingo if he tried to kick him, for an Admiral he sure is passive in comparison to the other 3.
