      So I have a question about this area behind the Gates of Justice. I was under the impression that this area was "the home to gigantic sea kings like those found in the Calm Belt." However, I think a lot of people think that it's "a Calm Belt type area that is home to gigantic sea kings." Do people see the difference? The former means that gigantic sea kings live there, but ships can sail normally. The latter means there's no wind, and a special means of transportation is required. Can anyone clear up this confusion? Depending on which it is, it could drastically change how things proceed in the story.

      On another note, we can also speculate on where the SHs are going once they reach the GoJ. According to Nami, they can only go two places. Marine HQ, and Impel Down. But to me, it seems absurd for them to want to go to either place. One is a place where all the elite Marines are stationed, and the other is a high security prison where all the most dangerous criminals are held. Does anyone besides me think that they'll just steal a ship from somewhere and start heading in the opposite direction?

        Criminals = Pirates.

        The strawhats are also criminals, and would be in that high security prison. I doubt those pirates will want to attack the Strawhats who are fighting the government.

          My point was more that it was a high security prison, rather than the inmates being held there. To me, a prison has the image that it's easy to get in, but very difficult to get out.

            Where ever the Straw Hats go to after saving Robin from spamdan, they will be chased by almost all of the marines. Now if they head to the prison area, where I bet that alot of old defeat villains are at. The Straw Hats may have to fight them.

            Plain to point, the Straw Hats will have to fight to survive.

              but think about this - when the SH will go to impel down, there is a possibility that they will meet some pirates, that could help them on their trip - I mean that those pirates who knew something about the true history or Raftel are probably dead or they are being held in impel down…

              The only reason for walking into the jaws of Death is so's you can steal his gold teeth.

                And why are we assuming they're going to either Marine HQ or Impel down in the first place?
                That would be BEYOND illogical.
                If you ask me they're going to follow the track back to Water7, get a ship, and proceed down the Grand Line again.

                  I'm not sure 'pirate liberators' would be welcomed in Impel Down.

                  Remember the Impartial Jurors? I could see the WG running bogus escape teams all the time to demoralise prisoners.

                  I also don't see a ready means to get back to Water 7. RocketMan is out of commission, and I'd expect a Buster Call on EL would immediately target the sea-train tracks to prevent escape.

                    As for the Buster Call...way too many variables as of now..

                        so if you are dissapointed with the thread what was the point of bumping it? along with all the other threads you bumped?

                        isnt this considered spam?

                          obviously it is…

                          funny thing: I just was in the "lost members"- thread asking what had become of an old member Impel Down who had the annoying notion of totally spamming the board (it seems he got banned some time ago while I was absent myself) and when I click back to the manga board I see that Lobolover in the exactly same manner has dropped his load in every existing thread and even bumped up loads of dead_as_brick_threads …..

                          HEY IMPEL ! Are U back under disguise?

                            PS:To Gorlom:I just wanted to say that I was lured here cause this thread had a name similar to that of "To the Gates of the Silver Key" by H.P.L. Though we could start up a new discusion-Id like to point out -how long would you consider the distance of the HQ to the Gate of Justice?

                                            no we noticed… that it ws a on the spot thought up weak question to cover your butt. its not asked in the initiall bumping post and there is no point to the question whatsoever as we dont have any distance measures between any islands.
                                            the only possible answers are "close by", "far away" and "other side of the world".
                                            we simply choose not to bother with it.

                                                Bother with what you will,I initialy wanted to saay that I was lured into this topic by a promising title that was all there was to it and asked a question only because you DEMANDED one.

                                                I see your point. But I hate to say, you were about a year late on this one. I mean, this eight.

                                                  Sorry,but it only shows me "I mean, this eight" ,the rest is BEYOND the boundary of the "board" (place where messages apear),could you repeat it?
