One Piece Chapter 881: Room of Waves
-
And now the wait for the next chapter.
-
Oh hey, Jinbe helming the Sunny through a wave is the first actually interesting thing he's done ever. More of that please.
-
Just to be clear; Luffy saw he was about to get hit by Katakuri, covered up his mouth so that his crew wouldn't hear his pain, and then did a big goofy smile because he lied to them about being at the island.
What a boss.
-
Grumbles about breaks
Still, pretty good scene with Jinbe and the ship. It felt a tad on the nose for my tastes, but hey, badass feats of helmsmenship are hard to pull off convincingly in a world like One Piece.
Still have no idea what is going on with the Luffy scene. If he had something in his mouth earlier, he seems to have swallowed it by the end of the chapter.
-
And I like how Jinbei seems to be the only one seeing through it.
-
I was wondering what was going on in the last few page? Oh and no chapter next week :)
-

I'd say it's just like Sibersk Esto said.
-
With the pacing we will not hit Wano or Rev this year I imagine.
-
Man I was hoping this chapter would end with Luffy going gear 4th or something. With no water coming into the mirror world, it makes you wonder how in the world Luffy is going to deal with Katakuri all by himself.
-
Oh and Luffy straight up put the glass shard in his mouth too it looks like because he spits out the shards.
So yeah, glass shard crunching in his mouth.
-
I don't understand what Luffy is trying to do there.
-
I thought Luffy was putting the glass into his mouth to prevent the enemies from hearing his friends and realizing they're not dead. But then he screams at them to get to Cocoa Island. I guess he was just trying to protect the mirror?
-
Bah, a shame a bridge chapter like this is the one we take a break on.
Well, for the moment, the Sunny and Straw Hats + Carrot are safe. But I am curious how the Firetank and Vinsmokes are going to hold out for that long?
-
Very weird and unclear. How I interpretated it was that he didn't want his crew to worry about him and weird face was forcing himself to say it. Blurting out that his crew is alive is maybe ok since they don't know which island they are meeting up (shards in mouth and then Luffy breaks it with fist). Only problem BM crew can just tell her they aren't dead and go looking for them unless some secret route to the island or BM too much in rage mode.
-
That face looks like his stupid face. Maybe he wants them to think he's getting deranged and talking to himself.
IF YOU DIE, I'LL KILL YOU….

I think that Katakuri might not let Luffy go into Gear Fourth - I imagine that Luffy will get stabbed with Trident while going G4..
Lets wait and see. Katakuri seen Luffys Gear Fourth during wedding and that clash probably made him see Luffys potential.
-
Man Luffy really doesn't want to clue them in on that he's taking a beating.
That's pretty good actually. Keeps their morale up if they think he's doing alright
-
Yowza, it's been pretty clear for a while, but it's vindicating to see Jinbe's helmsman prowess spelled out in such a spectacular way. Really superb.
I'm with Sibersk on this; there's no indication that Luffy had the glass in his mouth, the sound wasn't muffled and his teeth would be dripping with blood. He's just putting on a brave face, and everyone but Jinbe is confident he's already won.

He is both happy they are safe and he is being terrible at lying in same time.
-
Oda sure is taking his sweet time with Luffy's counter attack. Oh well, 2 weeks will pass quickly (lmao).
For a moment there I thought Luffy was going for a weird new gear.
-
Aaand Katakuri is using awakening same as Doflamingo as it seems - to turn ground into his element..
That makes it rather difficult for Luffy to use Spring Hopper lookalike attack as I expected.. I wonder how Luffy will play this out.
I expect that after turning Gear Fourth he might grab some of Katakuri siblings in his hands and use them as shields lol
-

Maybe he just threw some mochi in Luffy's path.
-

I agree it was not clear if it was awakening or just spreading some mochi in Luuffys was as you said.
Still with such sticky ability Katakuri might be able to capture even bouncing Luffy, interesting how fight will go on. Now I am sure that Katakuri will make it difficult for Luffy to get into Gear Fourth..
We are like 2 chapters into volume so I would expect at least 4 more chapters of this fight.Also I get this weird feeling that Luffy might loose an eye in this fight.. Oda was itching to draw eyepatch character..
-
Ok, now the Sunny officially has its helmsman, congrats to those who've been calling it all these years.
That wave scene and Jinbe's general attitude were truly awesome, I would just have wanted a note on how Big Mom and her fleet didn't spot the Sunny in the aftermath. Did the wave carry them this far from each other? Incidentally, wouldn't hunger-crazed Linlin turn on her own son and crew now that the Sunny is gone ? With Pero's ability being the only thing that keeps her afloat, this could become a very tricky situation.
Still on the Sunny scene, Pero's frightened reaction to the tsunami is much, much better than his cocky demeanour from last week. Much more fitting for a man who's basically sitting on a crate of dynamite that he himself set on fire.
On the mirror world, I'm as puzzled as everyone else by the thing with Luffy's mouth. My best guess is that he keeps those mirror shards in his mouth both in order to preserve some communication ability and to hide from the rest of the crew that he is being beaten to a pulp, so that uncertainty about their captain won't affect their morale. And I agree that this last panel with a silent Jinbei is a hint that he is either doubtful or saw right through it - unlike the rest of the crew, he knows what caliber of a man Katakuri is.
-
Is it possible he kept the shards in his mouth to keep Katakuri from hearing his crew was okay? That's what I thought he was doing… then again I have no idea why he told them to hurry up so... yeah no idea. Maybe we'll find out in two weeks.
_For with a closing door, another surely opens
Just you wait and see,
And when you look back on where we've been together
Wherever you may be
I hope that you remember me_
-
Man,Brulee and co. are only interested at commentry,they simply watched those mirror getting destroyed.How convenient.
-
Without reading this thread I would not know what the hell is going on with Luffy. It's rare for One Piece that Oda can't bring his point across. The Green Room stuff was nice though.

I just realized. He closed his mouth to stop SH from hearing he's in pain. To feed them the lie easier.
Damn, Oda, that's touching.

Not sure how I missed this post earlier.

Its a combination of the two: Luffy puts the glass in his mouth, and then clamps it shut to shut off the sound. If he didn't they'd be able to hear Katakuri wrecking the entire place anyway. This is also why glass spontanously appears in front of Luffy after Katakuris kicking salvo is done: Luffy just spat it out.
-
great chapter…great leadership by luffy...Nami and team (escape-CLEAR)
now for luffy to full fight and sanji bake time
-
Jeez…that mirror shard scene is gonna confuse some folks, I'm not even 100% sure what happened there.
Tho I assume it's as everyone here is saying, after it broke from Kata's kick he hid the remaining mirror pieces in his mouth to keep the others from hearing and seeing him get wrecked. Then spit them out, put on a brave face, and gave them a cocky one-liner before cutting off communication.
Kind of a weird scene, I'll be honest. The Strawhats shouldn't really need a morale boost from Luffy to keep going, especially now that they're out of danger. I get that they're the weaker half of the crew but they're not babies. Whether Luffy's getting his shit rocked or not, they should still keep doing whatever they're meant to be doing without false reassurance from their captain.
-
Glad that my Jinbe riding the wave like a boss prediction came true.
As for Luffy, I can't see him winning the fight. Btw, it was touching to see him make sure they didn't hear him being outmatched by Katakuri.
So I'm expecting him to be saved by outside interference. Germa most likely.
They would then bring him to Cacao Island on their boats. They have to be brought back in this arc to have a proper farewell with Sanji. -
Jimbei simply owns. He just surfed that wave on Sunny
That part with Luffy holding his mouth, then that weird face was a bit confusing.
Did he put parts of the mirror inside so it wouldn´t completely break while Kata was attacking him and the "happy" face was to boost the morale of his friends?EDIT: After rereading, the mouth holding is more likely to prevent his friends from hearing him scream from pain so the whole sequence is supposed to be a morale boost
"I´m fine, everyone" + Luffy´s cannot lie lying face

i never got the point of those "turn enviroment into paramecia element" awakening abilities… seems like Doffy/Katakuri can pretty much create an unlimited amount of their paramecia-type element out of nothing anyways (birdcage etc) so what is the advantage of the awakening ability? can it be used to turn living humans? if not then it doesnt bring anything new to the table.

Imagine Luffy turning whatever part of enviroment he wants into rubber - so he bounces back without taking damage after hitting walls etc.
For Doflamingo - he could have turned into a trap everything around him, thats a boost alright. Katakuri - it is unclear if it was awakening or him spreading mochi pieces all over the place.
I have hard time seeing anything more than a draw between those two with both getting KOed and Luffy being first to wake up. Also I expect that Luffy will use longneck twins as boxing glows while in Gear Fourth lol
-
Glad the chapter dropped earlier than I expected. Luffy…I want to see Gear 5th, just so you can completely shut Katakuri down and make him lose his shit. Luffy will win, after this chapter I'm more sure of it than ever. There can't be any outside interference because with Brulee inside the mirror world no one can come in. Unless he uses her to escape but he's made it his goal to beat Katakuri and that is what he will do. Loving Captain Luffy's leadership right about now.
-
Great chapter, cant wait to see what is Luffy going to do.
We will probably see something new from him.
About the glass, maybe he saved one part of the glass for later so he can get out of mirror world.
-
Cmon, it time for Sonic
-
So you are all saying the goofy face Luffy did was to comfort his crewmates?? I dont know why I thought something else was going on since he started pulling at his mouth since earlier. I just assumed that he was being forced to say something he didnt want…
Lazyness is my superpower
-
ahaha,all focused on how the sunny could get away from the wave and nobody thought it would go towards it XD
with this they gained time and the fleet lost them,now to see how katakuri vs luffy goes
-

Actually, that is going to be revealed as the ignition move of Gear 5: Smoothtalk Man. By stretching his mouth very fast he becomes a prodigy orator who can talk his way out of any situation.
That or a vomit cannon. At least it would blend in nicely right next to Boundman Full Mode. :ninja: -
Man I was hoping this chapter would end with Luffy going gear 4th or something. With no water coming into the mirror world, it makes you wonder how in the world Luffy is going to deal with Katakuri all by himself.
I'm sure he isn't going to. But if that's bound to be the case, who'll save him?

that wave was insanely high…from the top they were probably already unable to see the sunny that was going under it,and since they were on the top whan the wave crushed they were already pushed away from the base of the wave,which is what the sunny was riding.@auem:
Man,Brulee and co. are only interested at commentry,they simply watched those mirror getting destroyed.How convenient.
how could they stop the mugi from breaking the mirrors exactly?

nobody can get inside the mirror world if brulee doesn't open the door for them,nobody can help luffy inside,at best he an try to get brulee and escape somewhere, but nobody is coming to help him
-
Didn't understand it at first, but it does seem that Luffy hid the glass shard in his mouth so that his crew wouldn't hear, and then forced a smile to hide his pain.
Damn, these moments are why I love Luffy so much. -

I expect double KO or Luffy beating Katakuri, being badly wounded and after seeing Pekoms, pulling him in and asking for help/ help in getting to Cocoa.
Pekoms has to play a role.
Oh and I predicted Katakuri pulling out his trident at end of chapter. Small thing but made me smile. Now Luffys line is on stake and only his.
Katakuri will get burned for aiming at Luffy, though I find it difficult to believe that Gear Fourth straight on attacks will be enough, I expect Luffy to come up with something new and then beat Katakuri with it.

I can agree to this much, but afterwards ? Ships do stand out at sea, enough that the BM fleet was initially able to track the Sunny even after the Coup-de-Burst. Two options I can think of is that the sea is still high in the aftermath of the tsunami which keeps the BM fleet busy and restrains visibility (deep troughs that hide the Sunny from sight), or possibly they have their hands full with a rage-mode Linlin who keeps asking for her cake and must be lured to Cacao Island one way or the other. Or it's only a matter of time before someone realizes the Sunny is still sailing and the pursuit resumes.

Actually, if Brulee has half a brain she won't hang around for long. All she has to do is exit the Mirror World and leave Luffy trapped in there until Kata or someone else can deal with him. I'm curious to see how this will be prevented from happening, hopefully not because she and her mooks are too busy commenting the action. :getlost:

pekoms is not gonna betray moma..especially after the mugi just tried to kill her.
also he isn't even in the mirror right now as far as we can see.
personally i don't think luffy is gonna beat katakuri..at best i think he is gonna disable him for enough to grab brulee and flee away through a mirror, sealing him and his troops inside it for the time being.
