Chapter 796: The Soldiers Decision

G_soildier

Some people would prefer that poor little pacifist weaklin to continue fighting in her beloved gladiator suit ha? Funny how some people were so blind and convinced toward one certain character. Poor Kyros is in the same boat as bellamy just not as thoughful of suicide as Bellamy. Kyros still has not gotten over himself. He even tried distancing himself from his daughter. Dude is living in his past. Which is ridiculous unless his past includes things we have not as yet seen. Like before that incident. Regardless he is amoung the criminals so called. This will be interesting. Atleast luffy will make the relationship between Rebbecca and Kyros open and acceptable, but im more interested in how he will help bellamy and kyros get out of their bubble. And of course what law will do if anything in regard Sengoku.

Was cool seeing the allies chilled like Bonney with their hoddies waiting. Well just Cavendish and Don Sai. Suliman and Harujin was just chilled. What a sail off that will be. The hapou navy, the yonta maria fleet, bartolomeo club, the beautiful pirates, the pirate mercenaries, the explosive ideo, the longleg guy, plus bellamy our surprise guest from dressorosa, the samurai , sailing like bosses. What a sight.

I'm in no way saying that Nami was Ace's sister and Ace was older I believe but the resemblance with rouge is quite uncanny

I'll be the first to give you credit if it's true.

@Dranza:

Oh it just occurred to me, I think Luffy is going to mark Dressrosa down as one his territories in the New World and King Dold will approve, as well as the citizens and Gatz will help him announce it, for two or three chapters straight the people have been asking about Lucy too. This will be his "middle finger" to the marines (and thus the world government) once he leaves and they're going to be questioned about such affiliation in the upcoming reverie where a lot of rulers will back Luffy's corner. Hm, he's already marked Fishman Island as his so…

I've been thinking that for a few chapters now. It just makes sense. The people of the island went from violent to peaceful. The current ruler, Riku wants to lead but doesn't know if he adequately can protect the island. With Luffy's name owning the Island, it could at least in theory symbolize it's under his protection as well…thus add a bit more of a buffer to deter some.

Or maybe she will pull the 20 month pregnancy in the future.

What isn't possible after a 20 month pregnancy.

I think we could logistically agree.

Roger would have left his wife some protection.

We do know nami's birthplace was a harsh battlefield. If someone could post a picture of when she was found that would be great.

Pure speculation:the battle to get rouge, left the town devastated and that town could be where Nami was born. It'll be quite interesting if the parents of our crew start getting revealed. Franky,Sanji and Nami the most.

@carcanclaw:

I called it during the Diamante fight that Rebecca would end up wearing a dress by the end of this arc, but I never expected Oda to actually be so blatant and write something like "Girls really do look much better in dresses than suits of armor."

What a repulsive message for young readers.

A maid saying a princess looks better in a dress is just another throw away line that you see in fiction.
Nothing to get so angry about plus i think everyone knew Rebecca would be in a dress by the end of the arc she is a princess .
She was not going to stay in that awful armor.

@RobZilla:

It's quite funny how little patience you have though.

We've waited for 8 years to see Kaido and now you're complaining when you might have to wait a few weeks for an update on him and the KHA Alliance?

C'mon dude.

When you look at it Kaido might to join the battle much faster than most characters after they got introduce .

currently luffy doesn't have the military assets to protect the island. What the yonkous have are many crews under their command, that's what enemies like the WG have to contend with if they were to go against the yonkous.

That´s not what protects the island though, it´s the name and the jolly roger. After Luffy beating the first of the Yonkou, that flag is gonna be worth gold.

Can't wait to see his reaction when he sees all 7 of the Strawhats together. Would be legendary.

@MiyamotoMusashi:

Only that there are not many women who would share that sentiment, Viola did though

I guess we'll have to see if she tags along to the next island.

"Apparently Miss Scarlet and The Prince of a far, far away country fell in love and eloped. Left with no other choice, King Riku had to declare that Miss Scarlet had passed on…"
queue panel with Viola

I mean she's described as being passionate, would she really want to stay on the island to play princess and diplomat? I just can't see her staying on Dressrosa. Maybe she travels to the next island but Sanji mucks it up being caught in the act swooning over other women.

Also if Luffy is separated from the rest, he might need assistance in escaping so Viola's clairvoyance will come in handy.

@Bongking:

Pretty sure that Kyros is going to turn out to be Kobra's son and Vivi's brother. Him being royalty as well fixes most of these domestic and public image problems with the Riku family and them all living together. Bellamy pulling a Mr. 2 would be awesome as someone mentioned already, but I'm really getting the vibe that if anyone joins this arc it will be him.

I can see Luffy spreading that rumor, so Kyros can be with his chosen family= daughter and in-laws
…. and the younger Kyros does look a lot like a young Cobra:ninja:

Soo while its a lie, its a believable one. And I bet Cobra & Vivi wouldn't really mind if Luffy really did that.
though its more believable for Luffy to spout the truth in front of everyone, he does have moments of devious insight.

@KageKageKing:

Why do it have to be octopuses?

because there are many color spreads with a water theme and the fishes are so oversued

@MiyamotoMusashi:

Hmm? This is how i remember it, i do not think that there was a day between Fishman Island and Punk Hazard, i may be mistaken though:
Day 1: FMI and Punk Hazard
Day 2: Dressrosa
Day 5: Dressrosa aftermath and tea party

Punk Hazard happened day after Fishman Island. We know this due to Keimi and her work schedule=
Day 1= Reunion at SA, journey to FI. When the SHs arrived on FI, Keimi had day off, crew fights Hody. & co, have a party that night.

Day 2= Luffy yells at Big Mam. Big Mam mentions tea party. SHs are going to leave and Keimi, who is at work, wants to see them off, so Madam Sharly gives her a day off, along with other girls at the Mermaid Café. SHs arrive at PH and fight Ceaser

Night is shown after Law gives Doffy the ultimatum

Day 3= Dressrosa battle arena and confrontation with Doffy.

Day 6= is current chapter

I do hope you're right but we are talking the Rikus here.
Kyros' wanting to leave the island chilled me with the thought he just might leave with the Strawhats, something that thrills me not at all.
It's also the logic of "Phew, finally we've overthrown the thirteen year old yoke of tyranny from our shoulders. Let's celebrate by putting pacifists on the throne and letting our best fighter walk away. Boy, nothing bad could ever happen to us in the bext decade, right?"

I do wonder if Oda plans to make something of Luffy's gold statue dream. Not only is Kyros there but Sengoku is walking around (and so mellow!) and it's been speculated before if he could have something to do with the statue 'prophecy'.
Law looked like he may have some business with Sengoku as well and I am very curious into the nature of what that could be Handing in Corazon's final report?

Little worried about the physical condition of the Straw Hats, they all look pretty wounded still. You'd think Manshelly would have spent sone extra time crying over them knowing exactly how much trouble they'd be in if attacked in this state.

I don't want Kyros to join because he's pissing me off; Jesus Christ, how long is this guy going to be on this whole "Blah blah I'm terrible….....yap yap my daughter deserves better.........droan droan dark past" crap!? At some point realize that you have made up for it and let yourself off the hook already. Not only were you the legendary champion gladiator hero and the captain of the guards, you helped save the people of Dressrosa from slaughter; I think they would let the past slide.
Rebecca may be.......Rebecca, but she deserves her father, regardless of what anyone thinks; at some point Kyros needs to wake-up and realize the only person who cares about his past is him.

King Cannon

@Dranza:

Power of deduction, he's setting sail with them, he needs a new purpose as he currently has none and he's not joining Strawhats (no one is at this rate). Law and him have common ground with their history with Doflamingo so I reckon it will be brought up in discussion and they'll bond over it. The other option is Bellamy goes his separate way and we never see him again, after so much build up to his character I don't think the latter is happening. So, what made it obvious in this chapter is their rather amusing verbal exchange, it's the start of something special. If Barto continues his journey as a captain then I suppose that's the third option? There's only so many things he can go on to do whilst keeping him relevant to the story in some way or form.

Law has no interest in Bellamy and vice-versa. An amusing verbal exchange that doesn't even last more than one page shouldn't be enough for that sort of deduction.

It's way more likely that Bellamy just plays Mr. 2 and gets left behind to save Luffy. Or joins Bartolomeo, the person who he actually had meaningful verbal exchange with.

It would be rather inconsistent if he just went and said "i have done enough now to atone for my past", especially since he partly blamed himself for Scarlet´s death as well. He is supposed to be a larger-than-life character to underline Dressrosa´s theme of innocence, peace and pacifism. If you want, you can even draw a parallel between him giving in to his animalistic and destructive tendencies in the past, which he regrets, and the citizens of Dressrosa who were basically seduced by the devil (DD) and ultimately gave in to their animalistic and destructive tendencies as well. The latter was saved by Luffy, now Kyros needs to get his redemption through other people as well.

Neh, Kyros's defining character trait has always been guilt. He felt so guilty for killing those thugs that he was afraid to touch his daughter even years later, and he's been holding on to the guilt of not being able to protect his loved ones since Doflamingo's attack. Luffy's business will be as much teaching Kyros to forgive himself as it will be revealing his role to the citizens. I think their acceptance of him will play a big role in it too.

Did anyone else notice that Bart called Bellamy a straw hat? He says five straw hats and the image of Bellamy as included is slightly hidden so that the average viewer might not notice.

Bellamy for straw hats.

Perhaps Bellamy will join up with Bartolomeo. He swore himself to Doflamingo originally, he may wanna follow Luffy now. Him and Bart could start their own fanclub.

It's crazy, like two chapters ago literally no one expected Kaido to randomly show up so soon. No one even knew what he looked like. Now people are bitching about how we haven't seen enough of him. I get people are probably frustrated but I just see this as progress, consider just how much more we've learned in the last couple of chapters. Just go with the flow. People will get mad about anything.

I don't get why people want Luffy to expose Rebecca's heritage. While I do agree it would fit the manga theme if people could accept her true heritage despite her father being a commoner and that would be cool and beautiful, I think it would be an extremely dickish move for Luffy to simply ignore Kyros' will and expose his identity regardless of him stating he doesn't want it and standing his ground about it.
There is a lot Luffy doesn't know and Kyros hinted (if MS translation is right) there is some darkness in his past that could be negative for Rebecca if it was known she is his daughter, Luffy would look like an asshole if he forced his own will in a subject that has nothing to do with him even after knowing all the above.

I seriously hope his unfinished business has nothing to do with it, I would even prefer he asking Rebecca to join over that (!!!)

If Luffy is that mad about they pretending Kyros is not Rebecca's father, then he should speak his mind to Kyros/Rebecca/Riku/Violet/… the family, maybe make a speech ending with a strong line and leaving they in tears, whatever. But not pretending to agree and act behind their backs. That's not Luffy.

I really can't see Luffy going to ask Rebecca to join. She's got her own thing, and when you consider this arc has parallels to Alabasta, Vivi declined for similar reasons (country), and heck, she and Luffy were closer than Rebecca was to "Lucy"

To expose the truth of Kyros: maybe? But I've seen arguments why that might not be the best idea (like timeco's post)

To just say goodbye formally? Definitely, but Oda made Luffy's secret intentions pretty explicit, so I'm thinking it would lead to a more worthwhile scene.

Wait have the revolutionaries left yet?

Another way to look at it (that is if luffy does anything )is he doing it for rebecca .
From the looks of things it's not like rebecca had much choice in what Kyros did or how he wants things to be.
Sometimes you have to push your head into matters that might not concern you since some people to stubborn in there ways .
After all these years and all he has done Kyros can't seem to get past his guilt or think people would accept him .

Prediction: Luffy will pretend to kidnap Rebecca because that would be a pirate thing to do and force Kyros to "save" her exposing that he is her real father and dropping the hero status of Lucy.

And? Luffy can be a stubborn dick at times and do things without thinking about the consequences. And if Oda did do something like this I doubt he would have it end with the situation affecting Rebecca negatively; we’d probably see everyone accepting the “hero” Kyros with open arms. Besides, when did Luffy “agree” to anything relating to this?

But, in all honestly, I think its more likely he would confront Kyros/Rebecca directly about this.

That I can see happening.
But I don't think it will be it, the way Luffy acted actually fits what he said - that he suddenly remembered something he had to do.
If his intention was to act behind Kyros' back and go straight to Rebecca, I believe Oda would make it in a more humorous way instead of showing Luffy so sure of himself. Like drawing Luffy with this face:

Oda has always done this, you guys are getting tiring, I know Dressrosa was a huge arc and dragged a lot but "oh Oda didn't use to do this, One Piece writing is laking bleh bleh!" his writing is exactly the same, he shouldn't have dragged so much in Dressrosa but thats it, he always does this type of cliffhangers and setups, its nothing new unless its new to you because you haven't really been reading for years but looking at your join date it doesn't seem so.

New fans that read/watch Dressrosa in one go won't complain half as most of you did and will enjoy the arc.

I don't know any other reason, the whole chapter was basically dedicated to everyone thinking Rebecca's father was not Kyros. Luffy was pissed about it, because Kyros was instrumental in saving everyone, especially Rebecca, and worked hard for years at it.

Luffys gonna fix that because he knows people will accept him, and that his this excuses are arbitrary. Kyros is probably more scared than anything else.

People actually thought we'd see a continuation of the Kaido stuff this chapter? Really? lol

Have you been reading One Piece for long? That was a classic (and obvious) cliffhanger.

Dranza

The biggest issue with a new recruit joining (and it might be me nitpicking here) is that not every Strawhat has had the chance to interact with any one character in this arc, like all the candidates that are popular, Viola met Sanji, Luffy, to an extent Robin, Ussop, Franky maybe? Bartolomeo hasn't met them all, Cavendish has had even less interaction with them, mostly Luffy and Robin, Rebecca mostly Luffy, Kyros mostly Luffy and Franky (while being toy soldier) oh and Robin too. Like I know the Alabasta parallel had Robin barge her way in to the crew but I'm sure everyone saw her and spoke to her at one point prior to her joining. I can't see anyone here being yanked onto the Strawhat ship without everyone being informed and unanimously agreeing, albeit they fully trust Luffy and he is their captain. If we follow this pattern only Kinemon and Momonosuke have a good chance, if Bartolomeo continues to their next island with them and realizes his dream of seeing them altogether then maybe he'll have a good chance thereafter. No one is joining imminently, that's just the feeling I get so I hope no one is holding their breath to see if someone joins in the next couple of chapters. (I know all about Jinbei's situation, I've deliberately missed him out).

Yo do have a point. We can easily tell Rebecca isn't fond of becoming princess, nor inherit the throne in the future. Even Elizabello knows that. I don't want to get ahead of myself but, I won't be surprised if Rebecca pulls off a Scarlet, in a different manner, that is.
