@brennen.exe:

It hasn't been said or discussed to my knowledge, and it's a fair point, but I don't think Fujitora will simply stand aside. More importantly, Fujitora isn't very happy about Doflamingo going over the Marines' heads, and him hearing Caesar (the wanted mad scientist) refer to Doflamingo as Joker is definitely going to complicate matters. Doflamingo meant to kill Smoker and his crew for learning he was Joker, after all. Edit: pulled RobinotX's image for reference.

Since there was no way I could keep up with this thread to see if anyone else had proposed that idea I figured I should put that disclaimer. You know I actually missed that panel you posted, thanks for pointing it out.

Fujitora definitely isn't happy with the situation and to add on the fact that he may now be aware of Joker's true identity, really could change up Donflamingo's expectations in this situation. While he may not openly oppose him, Fujitora is under no obligation to go along with Donflamingo's plans.

It's probably been said before, but as it stands Fujitora is currently under no obligation to fight Law right now. Law himself is a Shichibukai and the only reason Fujitora was dispatched was because of Donflamingo's leaving the the Shichibukai and Law allegedly allying himself with the Strawhats. With Robin and Usopp nowhere in sight Law is only guilty of bringing a wanted criminal to Greenbit.

@yoshinei:

Thanks for posting… i wonder what does fukaboshi mean? Could it be Hody is half human and half fishman? couldn't wait for next chapter

Yeah, I'm kind of thinking that could be it too. What's more he could be the illegitimate child of a Tenryuubito or a World Noble.

@Pookiez:

Oh man I've been waiting for this chapter all arc long. Damn luffy is badass.

I love Zoro's comment: "If he couldn't do this much, we'd have to get a new captain."

I liked that line too, although I preferred Aohige's translation better.

Zoro: "I expect him to do this much, or we'd switch captains"

Sanji and Zoro casually talking about Luffy's haki make me look forward to their own development in that department. And Zoro's words make me think that he may have developed his own CoC albeit not at Luffy's level.

I wonder if Luffy's skirmish with Jinbei is going to be on panel. Anyway this development makes me lean more towards the possibility of Jinbei joining the Strawhats. I'm certain that Luffy is going to be considerably stronger lending more credence to Luffy being his captain.

Forgive me if it has already been said, but I don't believe thw Tenryuubito will be the ones directly responsible for Otohime's death. We saw earlier in the flashback that she is a master of Color of Observation. I believe Otohime will throw her life away in order to protect a Tenryuubito from a fishman or mermaid, possibly a former slave.

Luffy fulfilling the prophecy will likely be a blesing in disguise, forcing the entire Fishman Mermaid island to realize Otohime's dream. Just as Fisher Tiger was able to change the perspective of 1 human child about Mermen, Otohime's sacrifice could end up swaying an influential Figure amongst the Tenryuubito.

I keep seeing people mentioning Shilliw as a possible opponent for Zoro beyond Mihawk. While I do think that's possible I have always thought, ever since I first saw him, that the Elder Star with the sword would be the final opponent for Zoro to overcome. It's possible someone else mentioned him, I haven't gone through the entire thread.

I think he will be an incredible swordsman possibly rivaling Mihawk's level, just without the same world renown.

@Retsudo:

The message isn't the tatoo.

Come on man.

The message is not not the tattoo.

Hey this is pretty easy. It is only what I think it likely is, maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong. I could have sworn nobody here knows for certain what the message is yet. Hopefully we'll see in a week.

I'm going to agree with those that believe the message is in the SA2Y tattoo. Sababy Archipalego 2 years seems like the best guess for a message left only for his crew that know him.

Vivi who knows him, but is not aware of the crews most recent plans is shown to be perplexed by his apparent fashion sense. Using that acronym was the best method to get that message out in the face of the whole world while only having it understood by his crew. Kanji or Kana would likely be too revealing.

It's also not the first time that Oda has used Roman characters for an acronym.

Those agents even had tattoos identifying themselves as allies in the war that they instigated.

I can't really see either of those 2 joining the crew. Although I do find it more likely for Boa to join the crew than Jinbei. That said I think Margaret will probably be the next crew member. She would be perfect in that despite already being pretty capable she too can grow tremendously along with the rest of the crew.
