But it said that only Sanji can use it.
Not a hard rule that can't be managed under the right context, even more so because Sanji will have something to do with. I don't think Usopp will just show up with the Reid Suit, but rather Sanji will give it to him.
Chapters like these are my favourite. I was just smiling and acting giddy throughout the entire thing. I didn't expect Sanji to get his suit, not Zeus to join the strawhats. This is great. Reverie and Wano. I wonder if they'll happen concurrently. Anyway why did I feel nostalgic seeing dressrosa characters? I feel gross.
I really doubt any Commander have equal/higher bounties than Luffy. This 1,5 billion is contextualized in the same public hype as 5th Emperor, something too special.
Maybe he's worth a bit less (1.4 billion), but I think that a bounty achieved by causing a lot of murder and destruction is less relevant to being a yonko than a bounty caused by gathering a lot of people together and being daring. There's also that the captain's bounty probably bleeds a bit into the crew's bounty. So just being the first mate of someone with a ridiculous bounty is probably worth a boost that you wouldn't get if you were just being out there alone. Basically, getting a 1.5 billion bounty on your own is more impressive than getting it by riding your captain's coattails.
What bounties do you think Queen and King have?
Purely coincidence
Yeah I cant see other yonkos not having bounties 5x what their crew has or anything just like what luffy has now
Guess this gives credence to the theory that Luffy will be the Emperor and Zoro, Sanji an Jinbe will be the "Monster Trio".
Luffy just put A LOT of distance between him and his crew.
Of all the epithets to get discarded, it is "Black Leg" that is selected?! Hopefully, the epithet is still used and not completely scrapped. I loved how Sanji's title was a match-up to Zeff's previous title. It felt like a family name of sorts between the two of them so I am a bit bitter about the name change to Vinsmoke. It almost feels like against all that was said and done that the Vinsmoke are family to Sanji (whether he likes it or not).
I'll try to hold my judgement about the raid suit until we get more information but my current stance is: I really really do not like it.
Besides that, I truly loved how Nami lived up to her own epithet "Car Burglar". She literally stole a piece of Big Mom's soul XD Just. Perfect.
Sanji remains hyper to women despite the kiss (unsurprising because he does not remember it) and it will become an interesting point if they ever reunite (I'm looking at you Elbaf)
Princess Komane is the daughter of that one king we were shown in the first reverie discussing Dragon and said something along the lines that Dragon needs to be eliminated and considering that Komane might be escorted on the Dressrosa+Prodence ship and her -apparently- snobbish/brattish attitude then we might see some conflict between them during the reverie.
Very good chapter. We slogged through WCI to have this, so I'm fine with this. I'm glad to see Shanks, BB, Kaido all in one chapter as well, and seeing snippets of reverie build up. I'm glad to see Coby as well. I laughed at him thinking his bounty dropped, but I was thinking that he was probably counting it wrong before it was confirmed.
lmao i just realized yonta maria is a pun, from "santa maria". there's probably a nita maria and itta maria
You are on a quest to become the Pirate Prince, and you decide your fate!

What bounties do you think Queen and King have?
It's hard to pidgeonhole the exact meaning of bounties in One Piece as there are a lot of factors going on, like the ones you've said. However, I think the keyword is reputation, regardless of the reason for it, so a bounty reflects the perceived status of the person. Luffy's feats may not be as hardcore as the Beast Pirates, but Luffy is too much hype right now. It's like when Real Madrid makes the biggest transaction ever in the history of football for a new guy that looks like the next best player in the world. That's what it means to be called the Fifth Emperor… at least that's what I take from it. So my bet it that Luffy has the biggest bounty in the world only behind the other Yonkou, Dragon and maybe one other wild card.
Regarding the Calamities, I would like them to be kinda even in bounties with the Big Mom Pirates, only a little above. It would be weird to me if the King was too much above Katakuri, so I bet 1.2 billion at most, then Queen a little under Katakuri. Maybe Jack is even above Queen (in some games, Jack is higher than Queen).

To be fair, I don't think his "Black Leg" epithet was ever actually listed on his wanted poster. Just like "Monkey D. Luffy" is still known as "Strawhat Luffy", I expect "Vinsmoke Sanji" is still "Black Leg Sanji", the "Vinsmoke" part just got the focus for plot reasons…

@Game:
lmao i just realized yonta maria is a pun, from "santa maria". there's probably a nita maria and itta maria
Take a close look at the coverpage… I saw "4 TAMARIA", "3 TAMARIA", and "2 TAMARIA" on the sails, at least. Seems to be related to the size of the ships, as the smaller ships have smaller numbers and are more numerous.
@Game:
there's probably a nita maria and itta maria
I don't know about any itta marias (that might be the name of the ships' dinghies), but there definitely are nita marias, look at the smaller ones with 2 on their sails:
It's real hard to tell from this distance but are we actually being shown both of Sanji's eyes in one panel? I was under the impression that doesn't normally happen, but I guess we need slightly higher quality scans to tell for sure.
If you really think about it, defeating 2 top commanders in a crew, on paper looks crazy. Runs in takes 2 out, gets out. Luffy is a machine.
I bet Zeus will be the reason Big Mom finds them
And like I said. Hope Sanji won’t use the suit but maybe Usopp if he manage to open it.
The 3 fits him and the yellow color as well
His bounty might be higher than Zoro's now
but he still isn't higher than Jimbei, with the second highest in the crew 
I hope Sanji will utilize the Raid Suit, we need more. Don't care if it goes against his own convictions, those suits and powers are too awesome.
I know it’s been mentioned already, but not only do we get to see Crocodile, but he appears to be in a position of power again! Can not wait until he enters the plot again. (I love that so many of Luffy’s biggest/most iconic foes are all so poised to be relevant again. Buggy, Cricodile, Enel, Lucci - and maybe even Moria?)
Confirmation on Zeus is amazing, I neeeeever thought Oda would let her keep that power up.
So is the “Sanji will use the raid suit in a jam” theory going to finally replace the “Sanji will use Okama Kenpo in a jam” theory? I’m fine with either, both or neither, honestly, but I need him to go ahead and use those damn recipes he fought for. (The frosting wasn’t related, right?)
As many have said, the between arc scenes are pure fan-service-catnip and I love them. (I wonder if they’re just like, too easy though? Whatever, I don’t like being cynical about One Piece). Y’all think we'll get another montage chapter before we really settle into Reverie? The between arc bits are (almost?) always 2 chapters plus.
Favorite thing aside from One Piece is movies! Updated favorite films: The Passion of Joan of Arc / Alien / It's a Wonderful Life / Casablanca / One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest / The Apartment / Nights of Cabiria / Dr. Strangelove / All About Eve / Amadeus / Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
Here we go again
Zoro can have a new sword , cool!
But sanji can't have a new armor , that's cheating
Lul these people need to stop
Confirmation on Zeus is amazing, I neeeeever thought Oda would let her keep that power up.
I've seen this sort of comment pop up several times now. Was it really a wide-held stance that Nami wouldn't keep Zeus? What would have been the point of this page then, if Zeus was just going to leave?

It seemed pretty cut and dry to me.
Purely coincidence

Which goes hand-in-hand with that theory wanting Zoro to find his roots on Wano, so by the time the next bounties come out, his epithet, too, will be replaced by a surname.

Sanji is still black leg Sanji, that didn't change. They don't usually have the people's epithets on their bounties:

Moria, sure - we haven't seen him yet, but I seem to recall someone mentioning that he was still alive. Given how much the WG screwed him over post-Marineford, I fully expect he spent the last two years getting his groove back, so I fully expect to see him show up at some point.
Enel's a mystery, though. I'd love for him to make a comeback, but we don't really know anything about what he's been up to on the moon for the past two years…

Jinbe is dead :ninja:
Great chapter, I loved it!
I really hope that the Reverie arc will show us some nasty suprises! 
No way is 1.5 billion a normal yonko bounty. Luffy needs room to grow when he does more stuff in the future. He's still an upstart that's just now starting to build his empire while the others have been around for years. Jack has two other people higher ranked than he is in Kaido's crew and he's at 1 billion, so I'd put King at around 1.5 billion (and that's probably the highest of all yonko commander bounties).
The yonko's bounties probably range from 3 billion (Shanks, who just parties all day) to 6 billion (Kaido, who's a maniac). And Dragon probably has an 8 billion bounty (being the most wanted man in the world), leaving the 10 billion slot for when Luffy becomes the pirate king.
I am going to make a baseless argument, so I am putting this into spoilers to avoid taking up space:
! On Big Mom's side we have
600 million ~ Snack (former)
860 million ~ Cracker
932 million ~ Smoothie
1.057 Billion ~ Katakuri
! For Kaido we have
1 Billion ~ Jack
So, known commander bounties are in a range from between 600 million to 1.057 billion. I can certainly buy the argument that King will have the highest bounty of Kaido's commanders; by how much I cannot say. Narratively, I expect bounties to ramp up because of the need to hype the new threat. Jack and Katakuri's bounties were not all that different, and Katakuri was meant to be the ramp up from Jack.
! Between commanders, there seems to be huge variation, looking at Big Mom's side at least. In fact, Big Mom's sweet commanders, both former and current, occupy the extremes of the range, with Snack having 600 million and Katakuri having 1.057 billion bounties respectively. So I could certainly see a scenario where King's bounty is 1.5 billion and Queen's is somewhere in the middle. With that being said, I still do not feel as though the Emperors will have a bounty approaching 6 billion. At most, I can see the Emperors having 4 billion as a bounty. I have no evidence, but that's just what feels about right for me.
! I also don't see the purpose of having a bounty once Luffy is Pirate King, but that's just me I suppose.
I hope Sanji will utilize the Raid Suit, we need more. Don't care if it goes against his own convictions, those suits and powers are too awesome.
What powers besides bulletproof and jet boots plus better physical specs
The special abilities like lightning and co came from the mutant DNA
But sanji can't have a new armor , that's cheating
That's just mental gymnastics.
He'll never get it > If he got it, he won't use it > If he uses it, it's just this once etc.
I'll trust Oda here. He probably has some idea what he is doing.
When I read the bounty it felt like Oda was saying "WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO THE END I SWEAR" lol
There is no Dragon and/or Sabo reaction which is very interesting, it could be a huge hint that they will do something at the Reverie. Either that or they are in a peculiar situation and one of the next chapters will tell us what it is.
I also forgot to mention, at least Luffy has the Poneglyph prints.
Wow. This chapter. Just wow.
Shirahoshi, Crocodile, Dalton, Kureha, Vivi, Akainu, Viola, Coby & Rebecca (yay), Kaidou, Teach and Shanks…
The world-wide ones are always the best. Love it.

It seemed pretty cut and dry to me.
As soon as Nami captured him for the 2nd time, there was no reason to doubt it.
this type of chapter is what makes people fall in love with One Piece. Truly a testament to the Goda.
That's just mental gymnastics.
He'll never get it > If he got it, he won't use it > If he uses it, it's just this once etc.I'll trust Oda here. He probably has some idea what he is doing.
I'm pretty sure that he gonna have a situation where he have to used it
Something like his friends going to die and raid suit is the only way
Now I'm insterested in knowing this Rocky Port incident that implies Coby and Law fought each other.
Not necessarily. They might have fought on the same side since that's how they ended up. From what we know so far, Law did something to cause the 100 pirates to fight against him, then he beat them and ripped their hearts out. All the while Koby was protecting the civilians from the fighting. It's more likely that it was the 100 pirates that were causing the trouble for the civilians rather than Law with his pre-ts power level.
Purely coincidence
Damn, what a great chapter and a welcome surprise since I missed these spoilers. Only disappointment is that I momentarily thought from behind that Koby was Green Bull.
As expected the chapter was nice and we got one of this reaction arround the world which allow to see old faces back. The highlight of the chapter was probably Koby. To bad thanks to him, we couldn’t see Leo new crew do their bodyguard job
The funny scene were also funny in particular Sanji being the first slave. I suppose we will have another bit of them in 2 weeks especially from the rest of the crew.
Concerning the bounties, that makes luffy one 5 time higher than the rest of the crew, isn’t that a bit unreasonable Oda ? Also a bit disappointed that the only other one who got an increase is the one who achieved the least.

I think it is just the running gag that there will always be something for Sanji to dislike his bounty.
Pretty much everything people said wouldn't happen is happening. There won't be a bounty increase this soon we just had one. ODA: hold my beer. Sanji won't get a raid suit it completely goes against what he stands for. ODA: hold my beer. Luffy won't become an emperor he even said it himself he has much loftier ambitions and who's going to die to make space for him Yonkou to Gokou sounds retarded. ODA: hold my beer.
Jinbei is still not recognized as a strawhat, whyyyyy?. ODA: hold my beer. Sanji will never get an increase higher than Zoro, Oda loves masturbating to Zoro and hates Sanji. ODA: hold my beer. Nami will never get Zeus it's just a throwaway gag exclusive to this arc. ODA: hold my beer. Luffy won't get an increase that exceeds a billion, doesnt matter if he beat commanders in that bounty range its too big of a jump. ODA: suck on deez nuts. Carrot is never going to join ever, what position is she going to fill anyway I mean just because she spends her entire time on the ship on the crow's nest doesn't mean shit you guys need to wake up and stop living in your head canon. GODA: ???
How about hush next time and stop talking like Oda is bound to these imaginary set of predefined rules and he will never break free of his own writing?
Amazing chapter by the way, these are the kind of chapters I dream about.
Year of Sanji, let's go!
And good lord, it's great to see Koby again, being a badass Marine Captain. We really need to find out more about this Rocky Port Incident, because it's sounding like Koby made a name for himself there. Also wasn't Law said to be involved? Need to look it up…
Yeah it involved Law, it was mentioned in ch 700 And I agree, we need to find out more
@All:
Pretty great chapter.
Gonna repost this from the spoiler thread:
The fact that Sanji got a Raid suit, I don't like.
BUT
If we try to look at all angles as to why Oda made Sanji to receive one, I think he is trying to drive home the thought that Germa 66 has finally acknowledged Sanji as a strong enough fighter to have a Raid suit on his own. His brothers giving him a Raid suit pretty much means that they have gone from perceiving Sanji as a failure weakling to perceiving him as a fighter worthy enough to obtain a Raid suit.
All that's left is how Oda will make the inevitable scene of Sanji wearing his Raid suit to be an acceptable one. It has to be in a situation where it's not only threatening Sanji's lives, but his friends/crew too. A situation where he is willing to swallow his pride and use the technology given by the family he loathes so much for the sake of protecting something/someone. Me personally, I don't want his eventual suit-up scene to be a come back moment after receiving a beating any less than what Luffy got against Katakuri. He has to be pushed to his very limit on a very high stake even higher than just his life before he decides to use the Raid suit as a last resort. Only then would wearing a Raid suit be acceptable for Sanji. Let the Raid suit be Sanji's Snakeman moment.
Pfft copying me much? Here is my repost!
About Sanji and the raid suit:
This is a story. If something happens/is presented, it usually is for a reason. This has significance, whether if you like the idea or not - Sanji might be suiting up at some point. I myself would have, prior to this, shrugged off the idea (although not completely denying the possibility).
With that said, I would say the significance of the suit is this to the story:
A) It is a tool for Sanji to use; something to enhance his combat abilities. If he ever does use it, I imagine it would be to save Nami and/or Robin in a serious situation, where lives’ are at stake. That’s just my personal speculation if it were to happen
B) It is a way for Oda to tell us his biological family respects him, and dare I say, see him as one of them? While Sanji, at this time, does not have mutual feelings in that regard, will perhaps at one point ”forgive them”/simply be neutral about their past history. In this case, the raid suit is more of a symbolic thing to the story and possibly won’t be used.
C) Both of the above.
D) Or, the most obvious: it has a 3 written on it. You guessed it. Mr. 3 is about to get even more lit.
Luffy jump-starting a whole economy with his sole likeness.
Broke down the chapter in an analysis if anyone's interested: https://thelibraryofohara.com/2018/04/28/chapter-secrets-chapter-903/
Lots of great details here, but with just one translation out and all the differences that can be in the others (including the official one), isn't it a bit early to get that detailed? For example, one translation may indicate that the paper said Luffy won against Big Mom as if in a fight, whereas another may make it clear it was just in terms of goals met. Lots of things can change meaning once more is released. Unless you're a super ultra pro at Japanese and are doing just your own translations.
I'm going to try not to dislocate my shoulder from patting myself on the back so hard, but I called this perfectly one month ago:
Yeah, I remember when I figured out the 3D2Y thing in advance and no one believed it at the time. Always nice to bring out a huge "fuck you" to the know-it-alls who are really know-nothings when the time comes!
I just remember when GolD.Ace22, Melker, Razh, Watch-Man, Sereques, accesstimeco, SeaofHope, Lord Monkey D, Blissed, otakufan, Megaman and a large list of people in this forum claimed constantly that i was wrong. Raid suit finally is coming! That proves that Sanji needed an upgrade to fight stronger enemies (maybe Admiral levels?). Strawhats are a new generation of pirates more related to technologies (like us Millenials) who takes also the bests things from "old school" pirates. Thanks for the support!
I hope that the reverie thing will make a clear statement whether if they acknowledge Luffy as an emperor or not. After all, just because the newspaper said so it doesn’t necessarily have to be the case. Blackbeard did not acknowledge him as an emperor (yet, that is).
How dare I question the newspaper, you ask? For one: I think they may have overstated how great Luffy is with conspiring and executing actual plans.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! I haven't been this excited for a new chapter in a long, long time. Zeus, new bounties, Crocodile, Dalton, Kureha, Elizabello, Coby, Blackbeard, Shanks… what a blast. I liked the fact that the Rocky Port incident was mentioned again, I wonder if whatever happened there will ever be explained.

Not really a fan of Sanji getting one of those fancy smancy raid suits. But our chef sure seem to need some assistance…
I found myself saying this in one of my old posts. Never saying you, or anyone, being wrong. Simply sharing my view of it.
So, stop slandering me and those people in that big list of yours.

Who was it again, that called Jimbei as the next crewmate before he even appeared in the manga? That had to have been the greatest prediction in all of one piece.

They did overstate it, but the one doing the overstating is also a government agent and is the one who reported it to the marines in the first place.
So someone destroying Fishman Island might be simply fishmen themselves ?
