But what about Pekoms?
Chapter 899: The Last Stand
-
But what about Pekoms?
-
I look forward to the SBS bit where Judge unwraps the bandages on his forehead to reveal the pair of Doflamingo sunnies still covering his eyebrows underneath
-
This chapter really made me think of how much Jinbe's look reminds me of General Martok from Star Trek DS9.
Same here. The underbite, the scar on the same side. I even imagine his voice sounds similar. (Don't even remember how it sounds in anime.)
-
-
So Luffy has seen through Judge or?
Judge may have said all the shit about Sanji but Luffy have seen through and noticed that Judge actually praised him.
Similar like he knew Sanji was talking shit in their fight
-
But what about Pekoms?
I know right ! I guess Oda keeps the good stuff for chapter 900
-
I know right ! I guess Oda keeps the good stuff for chapter 900
Is he though? I mean, all the action is out at sea, it's not like the people on Cacao Island really pose a threat anymore, especially with Germa, so the "last stand" is now Smoothie, Daifuku, and the rest of the fleet.
-
I only noticed that worried-looking sitting spoon on my second read and it caused me to burst out laughing for some reason.
I have a few issues with this chapter but some of the comedic elements like Luffy´s purity, the Spoon, rubmaster Daifuku and the Smoothie running gag made it enjoyable for me.
Next chapter BM eats the cake.
It will be so delicious that she faints and there will be a grandiose Totland-wide soul firework, all of which will return to their original owners.
Peros will be there to witness it firsthand. Now there´s a possibility they will think that she died at first, maybe misinforming the country after seeing her knocked out.
Her face won´t be shown, or only partially (a stealthy huge grin). That might even be the cliffhanger.
-
Why did Luffy think Judge was praising Sanji? Is it because he's too exhausted so he couldnot understand what he meant or there was any pun on Judge's words?
Because that is textbook Luffy. Do you remember back in Arlong Park the marine guy threatened him and Luffy said how does he know he will be the Pirate King?
-
@All:
He might have used CoO to sense Judge's actual emotion.
Holy Plot Twist no Jutsu! I love it! For a moment there, I thought Luffy was about to launch into some long-winded reading of Sanji's resume and something something nakama. But he went way Luffier than that!
I'm glad the story took a moment to have the BMP at least know that their fates are now essentially in Sanji's hands. Though I won't be satisfied unless Judge sees that Sanji has done something he could never hope to: Besting Big Mom.
Also, how in the holy hfil are the Firetanks gonna get out of Totland if their ship is really destroyed?! I'm thinking mistranslation, and Bege was actually referring to how badly damaged it is.
EDIT: NVMD. Ship is on its side and engulfed in flames. They are stuck like Chuck :-(
-
@Kaido:
(After I posted this, I did think…Judge probably won't like hearing about the cake, considering that otherwise the BMPs would meet their doom...
The cake will save them all. BM will be in good mood after the cake brings her hidden emotions and memories back, else Nami wouldn't be able to leave with Zeus.
-
The Sun pirates sending off Jinbei pretty much drops whatever was left of a deathflag for him.
-
Judge: sanji is a weakling! he's useless! has a weak mind! a good for nothing! HE'S A JOBBER STRAWHAT! A JOBBER!
Luffy: why was he listing all the good things about you, sanji?year of the sanji continues
-
Hmmmm, good chapter~, sinful chapter~, reading chapter while lying down!
-
Hajrudin's story will be the one to add less content to the story since it will be just "look, those are the members of his crew" and zero plot. But I am really interested in it, too bad next week will be a color spread and most likely a break before we can meet the last 5th giant.
-
Good thing that Mont d'Or reaction upon finding out everything is crumbling was immediately ask for an update on Linlin. I like that. Also it was interesting to see someone actually suffering from an untreated injury for once (plus this meant Perospero will be safely away from Linlin while she is eating).
-
I complained much as I could about Linlin inability to reach the Nostra Castello, but at least Oda didn't make them keep sailing away safely after leaving the cake behind. Not only Bege says the ship was destroied, you can see it completely wrecked and in flames.
-
As for the many islands: (1) Amande is safe! I was probably the only person in need of an update about her, but yeah. (2) I am pissed the SH didn't visited the Cutlery Island, that place sounds so ridiculous for all the right reasons.
-
I miss moments when Luffy is just being stupid. His awful acting skills and he totally failing to get Judge were gold.
Also, this chapter shows that those people saying the Vinsmoke are still seeing Sanji as trash were right. I remember some people being very prepotent criticizing those last week about not getting the boys were supposedly just teasing Sanji. -
The figurehead on Smoothie's ship is adorable and, just like Cutlery Town, I am pissed Oda didn't present them before.
-
Sanji apparently didn't realized Pedro is still missing (Brook told him he was resting with Carrot last time). Curious to see how this will develop.
-
Finally, there was some weird intense pleasure in seeing Jinbe being shown under water in the last page.
-
-
Is Goldberg’s shield sentient (e.g. Devil fruited) or does it just have a face drawn on it? Discuss.
Better be a devil fruit, it blew my mind. So obvious, but I never considered we'd see a devil fruit shield.
Aside from Luffy's reaction to Judge that's my favorite part of the chapter. -
How big is wadatsumi? is he on par with san juan wolf?
And the fact that capone lost his ship si interesting. How will he get out of totland? Is this a hint that capone will stay nehind on totland and not leave? But then they are in big trouble. Could it be that he has another ship inside him that he can turn to normal size…

-
The fact no one is staying behind to see Linlin eat the cake is actually a good thing. There will be no citizen, no SH, no Firetank, no BMP, no Germa around to see it happening (and Stussy/Morgan can't get there in time), but there is no way the big even of the arc will be just Linlin eating the cake and passing out without anyone noticing. She eating the cake will most likely have a huge repercussion so everyone in TL will become aware of it.
Either she releasing all the lifespan she was keeping, like being predicted for months, or something else, but whatever it is it will be huge.
-
I love how Luffy and Judge can look at the same qualities in a person and see them so differently. I really want to be in Luffy-wagon in my interactions with people. So inspirational even though I read this manga for entertainment. The way I read this interaction was:
Judge: "Sanji is Germa's failure"
Luffy: Sanji managed to keep his human side in that harsh environment that tried to kill that side of him.
Judge: "He can't use his skin as a shield."
Luffy: He is not a disposable shield but an actual friend.
Judge: "All he does is cook."
Luffy: He makes the best food I've ever had.
Judge: "He doesn't have a shred of royal pride."
Luffy: Despite being born into a royal family he treats people based on their actions and sees others as equals.
Judge: "He's put his life in order to protect a weakling."
Luffy: He is not afraid to go into a dangerous situation in order to save someone who cannot survive from that harsh situation.
Judge: "He's unfit to be a soldier [a pawn to be sacrificed like Germa tend to do]."
Luffy: He is an important nakama to fight with and for.Absolutely beautiful interaction in my opinion. Luffy truly is The Captain.

I think it is highly unlikely that there’d be a homie in the care of a giant, or just anyone outside of BM’s turf.

Nami is about to walk away with Zeus.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
I hope Mont'Dor release a book with all the stuff he's been writing. I will love to read it. I wonder what the title will be. "Invasion of the cruel Strawhat crew"
-
I'm sure I'm not the only one who noticed it but the citizens said they give up their lifespans to live under a Yonko's protection. I wonder what would happen if people stopped coming to the island and living under her rule. Would the homies just start to die out?
@FelRes:don't worry, Stussy grabbed morgans by the neck and moonwalked him over to big mom so he can take pictures and write some big news. Judge will wake up to it in the morning
I read this and thought why doesn't Morgan just fly he is a bird, then I thought about big bird and penguins and how not all birds can fly. Especially one as big as him.
@Kaido:Sanji blocking Daifuku's strike was cool and all, and I hope there's more where that came from, but talk about that timing! Had he failed just once more, the current Next Crewmate discussion would be over in an instant! Missed opportunities, Oda.
So who is bigger the genie or Pika since I am sure that will be a debate point on Sanji and Zoro. I guess Jimbe's former crew will also join the Strawhat alliance.
@uniaka:And the fact that capone lost his ship si interesting. How will he get out of totland? Is this a hint that capone will stay nehind on totland and not leave? But then they are in big trouble. Could it be that he has another ship inside him that he can turn to normal size…
As I have been reading the thread I was thinking perhaps his shipwright is inside building a temporary ship right now.
-
So was it Absalom who caused Morgan to "disappear"?
-
If Bege's ship is destroyed, how are they going to get out of Big Mom's territory? It seems like Bege might end up joining the Straw Hats for a short while… if he hears that they are going to take down Kaido next he's probably gonna be interested too
-
I just realized Stussy missing might be something interesting. Morgans disappearing it's something we could read as him just trying to go get the news directly, but why Stussy? Feeling the CP-0/Marine invading theory is gaining some strength.
-
If Bege's ship is destroyed, how are they going to get out of Big Mom's territory? It seems like Bege might end up joining the Straw Hats for a short while… if he hears that they are going to take down Kaido next he's probably gonna be interested too
Bege can put all his crew inside him so only he does need to leave which shouldn't be that compliczte if Morgan was able to

It seems Chiffon wants to stay. But yeah I also wonder what will happen. The release of souls would kill all those cute homies (zeus included) so I don't think it will happen
-
I really enjoyed this chapter. Luffy's reaction to Judge was perfect! It seems like Oda has set up for a stellar chapter 900. Can't wait~
-
I guess Sanji disregarded Pudding's last request. Or he doesn't smoke it front of her in the future?
-
As I have been reading the thread I was thinking perhaps his shipwright is inside building a temporary ship right now.
A couple possibilities:
- they somehow run into Gangster Gastino and make their escape thanks to whatever flying contraption his powers allowed him to create.
- or Chiffon has her own ship - or one she's free to use - anchored somewhere safe on Fluffy Island. She is the island's ruling minister after all.
- or they steal one from any harbour on the island. As someone pointed out it doesn't even need to be large, only needs to fit Capone and a couple sailors
-
dude stop reading mangapanda and read jaiminisbox
lol I am reading jaiminisbox, calm down man!!
-
So Carrot crew job will be to wake up Luffy even when he is exhausted :-)
-
So does he constantly have to rub himself to keep the genie out there?
Or does the rubbing just make it bigger?:ninja:
Does it get even bigger when others rub him? :ninja:
-
Poor Nostro Castello. That was such a cool boat!
-
I guess Sanji disregarded Pudding's last request. Or he doesn't smoke it front of her in the future?
Pudding's last request was a kiss. Oda probably off-paneled because "too much romance in young boys' manga".
-
Maybe the request was to let her play with his memories.
Or maybe she just revealed to him that she is okama.
-
Look how calm and cool Sanji is once he's aboard the Sunny. Shot in the arm bleeding out, lights a cig and pays no attention to Nami? I guess it's not entirely unusual as they did reunite just a little while ago or is something on Sanji's mind? Something Pudding may have requested?

I'm a bit scared that somebody is going to use that panel to claim that Sanji's exoskeleton is finally awakening lol.
-
I hope the living legend that was said to appear soon in the manga will appear next chapter lol or even Green Bull…we need a new powerhouse !
-

About that i'm curious as well…. I don't remember but i think from the general meaning, Oda wasn't referring to Kaido, right?
-
@Count:

I actually saw someone already say this. Quite shameful lol
-
My interest level for these last few chapters: Watching Shark Week
My interest level for these upcoming chapters until the end of the series: Seeing the news when Trump is impeached and his various under the table crimes are exposed.
Seriously I'm extremely excited for what's ahead. There might be a dull or draggy chapter here or there, but it's pretty much gold from here on out.

Sanji didn't call Nami on the den den mushi but spoke with jimbe instead and now doesn't even notice she is here. Pudding must have wiped his memory of Nami, its the only thing that makes sense.
-
Pudding do that come on guys.
-
about Goldburg's shield, do you think that's a shield with a ""real face"" or is it just a drawing on it ?

What do you think?
The promise to meetup again?
Kiss?@Count:

I've already seen it, its awful.

This is not gonna happen, like 100%.
Your guess are like the worse.
-
good thing is, this intervention from the fishman pirates is more of enough of a reason to let the strawhats escape completely…fishman are basically ship kryptonite, they can sink them easy and you basically can't do anything about it because cannon balls are not that effective when you can't see them and all your strongest guys are devil fruit users that can't fight in the water..and even if you are not a fishman you get immediately at a disadvantage since they get stronger inside the water while you get weaker because of attrition.
also it makes sense for them to intervene because cacao island is on the border of totland,so they are both escaping and helping them at the same time.@Megaman:

i don't know what you watched for the remaining 898 episodes, but while sanji likes nami, he is not THAT sticky…he will try sometime to get a bit of physical contact, but all in all he is more than able to keep his composure with her around..they have been months on the same ship.
-

Man how bad would that be for Sanji to forget everything they've been through? Though if it did happen I'd imagine Sanji would be going bonkers right now at seeing Nami for the "first" time.
What do you think?
The promise to meetup again?
Kiss?It may be nothing, just Sanji landing and needing a smoke since they were together just a few hours ago. Or maybe after a kiss from Pudding and promise to save themselves for the future Sanji is controlling his natural urges when around Nami.

@.access:
I just realized Stussy missing might be something interesting. Morgans disappearing it's something we could read as him just trying to go get the news directly, but why Stussy? Feeling the CP-0/Marine invading theory is gaining some strength.
stussy might just be concerned about her well being.
mont d'or just said in this very chapter that they had no intention of letting those 2 guys left totland because they don't want the news to spread outside of the country.,..so if she stayed there she would have most probably be taken prisoner so that she could not spill the beans about the whole situation to the outside world.
-
Man how bad would that be for Sanji to forget everything they've been through? Though if it did happen I'd imagine Sanji would be going bonkers right now at seeing Nami for the "first" time.
Yep, not only that just think about the years of footage Pudding would have to go back through to erase any mention.
No only that it makes no sense for her to do that anyway.
-
So was it Absalom who caused Morgan to "disappear"?
stussy can fly,being a rokushiki user
also morgan might be able to fly too being ,well, a bird.@Melker:
Is Goldberg’s shield sentient (e.g. Devil fruited) or does it just have a face drawn on it? Discuss.
not much to discuss, that tongue is clearly real and not drew
