I'm glad Oden died.

33 here, watched one piece from the beginning up to mock town. ( that’s as far as the anime had gotten)
Read the manga exclusively after that point.

Don't know if anyone has said this but what if the Devil Fruit is Just another made by Caesar? What if Doflamingo's idea was for the winner to eat it and then fall under his control similar to how Momo now hears Doflamingo's voice. Surely he wouldn't just give the real fruit away considering his ambition.

Hmm didn't Mihawk want to know how close he was to Whitebeards level? Pretty sure Shanks fought Whitebeard without any hesitation and he came out of it without having his ass handed to him on a plate. So Shanks believed he was strong enough to fight Whitebeard but Mihawk was unsure of himself.

So either Shanks is stronger than Mihawk or Shanks is over confident and Mihawk is a coward. ( I know it doesn't work like this but my bullcrap logic is just as good as anyone elses. )

People ask what role Jinbe would play in the crew when it's shown this very chapter… Luffy's emergency blood supply!

The problem for me with Luffy following the same path as Roger isn't that he's "destined" to be great. We all knew this the moment we started reading the series. Luffy has worked harder than anyone to get where he is, it isn't like he just sits on his backside waiting to be pirate king. The problem for me is it devalue's every other pirate in One Piece. It's like they don't have a sniff at being the pirate king they are just there to give Luffy some adventure along the way. The whole destiny thing kind of makes a mockery of them. Although I guess you could say it just gives them a big challenge. ( which they can't overcome )

Caribou will absorb the arc to save his own life with everyone still inside it. While Luffy is trapped inside Caribou, a greater threat will arrive and cause chaos.

Luffy will be set free by Sanji kicking the crap out of cariobou and will then proceed to fight the real threat. Maybe!

Kuma's look will be based off what Vegapunk actually looks like. As the only thing that resembles the young kuma is his bulk.

Ivankov's too big headed.

I would love it if VDD found a way to take out Luffy for the rest of the arc. We've had 1 entire arc of Luffy and nothing else. Would love to see Sanji or Zoro take care of Hody while the other Strawhats deal with the lesser guys.
