@Dragon:

If you think about it, maybe Kizaru is actually the den den mushi, and he's just using this poor man's body? Kinda like a parasite.

Lol, made me think about Futurama.

@lil:

didnt oda say if a human ate the humanhuman fruit it would make you really smart? vegapunk must have eaten it… obviosly...

Chopper ate that fruit already.
If Vegapunk's genius is a consequence of a devilfruit, it would be lame..

@Zephos:

I'm no expert on honorifics, what would "Violent-kun" fully ranslate to?

I think "Violent-kun" is just literally for "Tyrant" or it's refering to "Tyrant" at least.

Great way to start the day. Thanks

@Kaimei-Karasuhebi:

My crazy theory for the ending of this arc is that Luffy will attempt to stop Kuma from escaping and then, after touching Kuma, he will be teleported to Dragon's current location….

I highly doubt that

: "The World's Government lap dog…the epitome of a proper Shichibukai " will teleport Luffy to the WG's most dangerous man...for all I care anywhere but not to Dragon. That would just be counterproductive.
I guess Kuma won't interfere at all, he's just an observer, the eyes of the WG. The Strawhats probably won't see him at all. (except for Nami of course)

I'm really looking forward for the true sogeking sidestory but certainly not so soon 'cause he didn't show up in the mainstory yet. I guess next one is Foxy followed by T-bone ,which would be awesome 'cause his wierd "evil" appearance combinated with the unexpected charity personality makes him a perfect canditate for a side story. Hope the very short appearance of T-bone isn't too unimportant for Oda to never show him again (Of course Ace' appearance wasn't very long either but it had some significance for the mainstory)

Great chapter, good translation. Keep up the good work.

@Sogeking:

Aww… Inside of Oz isn't big enough for Luffy vs. Moria.

If there's gonna be a Luffy vs. Moria it will happen after the defeat/purification of Oz and thus not in Oz' Belly.

So Moria became the "brain" of Oz!…now we gonna see if he really has some fighting experience. Maybe not physically (although i hope he puts up a good fight after robOZ is defeated) but in terms of strategy and tactic.

Kuma seems to understand the mecanics of preserving world's balance of power quite well. He's not the uber-selfconfident prick who likes to show-off and he certainly doesn't take the recruiting of BB and the competence of the straw-hat crew easily. His comment about BB and his prediction about the "opposite of the balance" shows that he's aware of the chaos BB is capable of. Kuma probably even met that guy before or is related to him in some sort of way we don't know (yet)

@Freeman-12:

Wait what's the origin of Cutty Flam again?
