By barely following anything that has OP as a topic for a couple years, it turned out to be super easy not to be spoiled anymore. Good to see you two still being here tho. haha

@Screwtape:

Discussions are/were normally heavy in both spoiler and chapter discussion threads. The talk of the town was due to the content of the chapter. Not the case now.

This chapter was a waste with all the dragging.

Again
@KageKageKing:

you twat.

It's due to the manga being released for free on sunday.

@ArseneWenger:

She's just juicing up

Haha damn you.

Wonder if we will get a good look at Snack aside from that shadowed face.

@thegab:

Chopper is no longer just a reindeer. He's gained sentience.

I'm saying, whatever evolutionary process the minks went through to evolve, could be compared to chopper eating the df. Minks evolved over time, while chopper evolved the instant he ate the df. No, chopper isn't literally a mink because he wasn't born in the tribe, duh, but he's as close to a mink as one can get without actually being one.

Chopper is a human/ reindeer hybrid, so you're wrong saying he's just a reindeer, end of story.

Saying chopper can't be anything more the a reindeer is ridiculous. Df obviously change a person's DNA. Their bodies transform. Unless you're just fine with magic being your explanation, and aren't willing to dive any deeper.

The changes to chopper's body ,due to the effects of the df, could have changed his DNA to closely resemble the mink' s DNA.

DF powers aren't hereditary, so he's still just a reindeer. A reindeer using a DF to act like human and can turn partially or fully into a humanoid form.

@Laffitte:

I'm not asking for any proof, nor am I interested.

What's the fucking point of all that jabbering, if you aren't interested!?

@uniaka:

Luffy is so unlucky. People say katakuri is great but let's see him in a rainy day

All these water weakness enemies( cracker, crocodile, katakuri) and no rain. You can never count on weather.

You know it's gonna snow, powdered sugar, making all the sweets even tastier.

Luffy must have killed dozens of people through his actions, even if they are passive events. Just saying.

@FelRes:

Is that in regular time or birdcage time.

Hyperbolic Time Chamber time, it will only take a couple years for the next chapter to arrive.

@Screwtape:

Cannonballs, Sanji and the Smokes are not impressive.

Your arguments are anything but impressive also.

We always knew it would happen, just not the when exactly.

@S.C.:

So, what exactly is Yonji's "Winch" power? Just super-strength and/or durability?

He turn things up real fast? Seems like it's something like a windy vortex power.

Loved the sentai transformations.

The box will explode and topple, giving them the needed time to flee?
@Apprentice:

Man this Manga seems to have ground to a crawl recently. It feels like less and less happens every chapter. I miss the Enies lobby arc.

Running after something 12 years back, get with the times grandpa.

@K.:

With that being said: the 20ish people that got devoured by Big Mom all deserved it for staying still for so long.

How do you know anything about their behaviour at that moment? Oo If they kept standing there, it would have been out of pure shock of what's happening to their "family".

A cliffhanger every 1 1/2 chapters isn't enough already?

@Michel_nunes:

i still dream about a day where someone from this forum, or in a random SBS would personally ask Oda about his protrayal of women, Sanji's chivarly and sexism in general, and he explains it in every detail… so we can stop having this kind of discussion here...

Are you that naive to believe that he hasn't gotten a single question about that yet?

Would they impede him for more than a second though? Kingbaum is gonna die you say? Nooo.

@Thatanas:

Using a VPN is illegal in some countries, FYI.

Stealing intellectual property is not? And the the moon is a country now?

@MajinArekkusu:

Thanks for that comparison. It also makes me sad that I can't read the better version online, cause I am ready to just throw money at viz, but dumb licensing deals and other companies here holding rights prevent it. And it doesnt look like we here in germany are anywhere near in embracing simulpub chapter releases for manga. Sigh.

Let's not act as if VPN doesn't allow you to circumvent the problem. That execuse doesn't work in this day and age.

@Jack:

Not trying to start such debate.

I think that we're completely underestimating the vice-admirals since Vergo, Smoker, Maynard, Bastille and Ronse have been OS.
It has been implied that Tsuru could overpower Doflamingo for instance.
I'm pretty certain the buster call vice-admirals are way stronger than the others (except for Tsuru and Garp).

Yes you fucking are, otherwise you wouldn't have wrote all that.

Aside from Maynard whom Oda explicitly named a rookie, none of those are understimated. (Vergo was incredibly strong, Smoker held his own despite being relatively new too. Bastille fought the second strongest non-pirate/marine AFAWK, Ronce the #1 pirate.)
Using her experience and DF power, not in a mano-a-mano confrontation.
Whoever is nearest to the location will be called, there are NO special "Buster Call Vice-admirals".

@Tamiel:

• Gear fourth is not Luffy's trump card.
• Cracker doesn't seem like the speed type. I wonder how will he protect against a Grizzly Magnum.

With a cracker…

@Shadowgreed:

Or there is no joke involved at all and Pudding is just a good actress!

Note: Probably not everything she said is a lie, but the things about meeting Sanji is definitely fishy.

There is absolutely nothing fishy the way it was portrayed.
@sanji''s_dad:

Proves she never saw him in person.
"I hear his legs are black, but he's very strong and dependable."

He wears a suit and hasn't shown his legs, she was simply talking about him fame. Pudding even told us that he taught her a couple recipes.

I'm dumbfounded by the extremes people try to go to paint her black. We fucking had a major three year long arc ending just last year, where there was a woman(Viola) lying to Sanji at first. It would be far too similar, if we had another woman lying to the rest of the group to screw them up AGAIN.

@Tamiel:

The weird thing really is why would she pretend Luffy and Chopper are dismantlers if she didn't know at all whom they were. I would assume she would know whom she hired. If she had allowed Luffy to be sent to jail, he probably would've rekt the city escaping.

Or she is simply a friendly and cheerful person, not every nice person is scheming something. I would rather question those people here, that felt threatened by her personality so fast.

How are they supposed to know how far you've read? You want special individual spoiler tags for 800+ chapters? :silly::silly::silly: Better go on an hide everything past chapter 1 as most of that is revealed "later" in the manga. Some of you are hillarious, don't fucking read wikis is you fear to be spoiled.

@Katzztar:

I've read a theory somewhere on here that wonders if Big Mom has a leaning towards having twins. They mention how Lola and that look-a-like previously seen with Capone's crew. They wonder if Pudding really is the 3 eyed girl or a twin of hers.

If this sparks anyone's memory, please drop a note of who posted that theory….

But would both she and her supposed twin have a jelly companion? (No)

One was a form of punishment by severing part of the Skypian clouds, the other is an island on it's own.

@Don_Freecs:

The sky Urouge was resting on.
Could that be…

[h=3]Resting when, resting where?[/h]

@Don_Freecs:

There are very few good mangas and TV shows. And videogames are boring.

Your theories are boring!:silly:

@sanji''s_dad:

the person doing the translation does not know what a newspaper is lol.

I'm at loss for words. You're making yourself look stupid, don't do that to yourself.

@Halfmetal-lich:

Kinda meh chapter. Next week should be great.

@Halfmetal-lich:

Kinda meh chapter. The week after next should be great.

:pouty: Maybe a third time makes it the charm?

@lemony86:

So… Who is BM's lover/husband? Or is she forcing guys to mate with her too? @_@

She get's the first night with every pirate coming into the family. :sad:

@Don_Freecs:

The fishing rod and the big fish. I immediately thought about HxH. You guys think it has anything to do or just me ?

A manga about people on a boat fishing for food.

@Watch-man:

Sanjis brother looks quite a bit like Zoro if you look at mouth and jaw shape.

Zoro and Sanji look like twins if you remove the hair.
@MugiwaraNoBinks:

I predict that Luffy will have every Supernovas on his side by the End of the manga..

That got to be the most boring prediction of the year so far.

It works, get over yourself. Nowhere will you see me claiming it was Odas(in his unproficiency of the english word) intention to make it so.

@Monkey:

Zou isn't pronounced like Zoo. It rhymes with know.

That doesn't change anything. Don't be pedantic for the sake of it.

@Monkey:

That sounds like a really bad urban myth.
There are elephants all the heck up in Southeast Asia, and China had a history of indigenous ones up pretty far north (the Yellow River) so no way in heck would the first time Japanese people encounter elephants be an english zoo…which also assumes the Japanese never had or encountered anything like zoos until the Meiji era. Which further assumes they wouldn't have had a word for elephant until the same time. Which is alllll kinds of unlikely.

I looked it up best I could and it looks like some relations to older forms of Chinese. Which should be figured for most Japanese words for really anything outside their islands up until modern inventions and truly far away nature.

All the right explanations aside, in the end it's kinda a triple entendre.

• Zou for the elephant
• Zunesha/Zunisha for the Ganesha reference
• Zoo-nation for a island/country lead by all kinds of animals.

Oda wouldn't have made them four, if one only needed three…

You quiver form a kid loving beautiful woman and using his kid status to stay near her? Grow up a little. hur hur

@dropper:

Boys aren't that creepy or perverted. Oda has developed some sorta ultra-creepy kid.

Surely many definitely are.

Future Nekomamushi? XD

@Kishido:

Yeah could be but how could Raizo know that Kinemon will rach zou?

Something called trust. Better to meet up at the place you've discussed than anywhere else, especially when your country is allied to this one, even more so when you've been isolated from the rest of the world for multiple centuries.

Assassins, much better than royality or normal underground mafia.

Catviper is hilarious, has all the great cat features.

They've been named Namek trees for a reason.

@Sephi:

They aren't all her daughters. It's the 35th female in the family line. Meaning for all we know, Lilin (Big Mam) is the 30th of the Charlotte family or something. It just is using the term 35th daughter to mean essentially the 35th female in the family tree. Why isn't anyone getting this?!

It's just that you are wrong, so there isn't anything to get.

@Boing:

When do you think we'll see Coby again?

When it's time for his cover page.

@blue-san:

Naturally too much work is never good, but so are tons of other stuff like smoking ( we all know why this is mentioned) and so on and on….

Yeah smoking, which comes from stress of demanding and nagging people it seems. And other reasons.

Where am I going with this? I find it really silly when every time people will be saying where is the chapter, or I am not ok with breaks… that people have that need to come out and say how they are selfish and rude and god knows what... and in addtion they are like throwing in the comments about how Oda can take all the time off he wants, because they want him healthy etc.

Don't cry over something you don't pay for and more importantly, are not entitled to in any way, and people won't answer that you are selfish.

Comendable no doubt… but for god's sake the guy is a professional author creating the most selling manga in the world... I dont see people being so patient when it comes to tons of other stuff and quite frankly I cant really imagine normal people taking weekly breaks in the fashion Oda does.

Comparing fucking apples to oranges, every job is different, every contract is different. Oda is not a normal person, he is the most successful author/mangaka japan has ever had, he works under special conditions that we aren't privy to.

The guy is a workaholic, that is in his nature and he loves the work he does, but he is also "running" a business and is providing something to the people.

Releasing One Piece, until he gets paid for it and he gets paid nicely… is something which is not only our blessing it is also his duty. As stupid as it sounds, it is his job. I dont get what's the fuss about people expecting him to do it in a regular fashion.

Did you sleep during the past eighteen years? He's been delivering chapters regularly for eighteen years, only to have some additional liberties added to his shedule over the last couple years due to him being the cash cow of the publisher. Getting an extra break during the development of a movie for his franchise is nothing but reasonable.

Shueisha is the one running the business, not Oda.

And by the way, for me personally I could care less, I have other stuff to do and manga to read I can wait no problem. But I understand the concept where it is normal for people to expect him to provide chapters on a regular basis as also, that they are annoyed when he doesn't for whatever reason. We run a family business over here every time I am absent, be it because of illness, or whateve,r people get annoyed, or at least stressed because of it, because they wish to be in contact with me…
While I too wish to have peace and rest, and do not wish to be bothered when I am not at work it is a luxury people who have build something just cant afford, or they can but then they are basically saying to the world. Look I have enough money and can decide on my own when I ll work and deliver for you and when not...

Stop that nonsense, Oda is providing regularly 3/4 chapters before getting a break for more than a year now, this is the regular for One Piece now. Not being able to accept/understand this shows how obtuse certain people are.

Personal anecdotes to and fro, but it's because he's been working 20/7 while being ill that he nearly got irreparably hurt.

Cool but expect customers to leave which is perfectly normal if that is the case. And same in manga world, how many people have left manga like HxH, Berserk etc exactly for such reasons.

Neither Togashi nor Miura could give less of a fuck. What a pity. Also, comparing OP's shedule to HxH, which has been hiatus for more than a year twice now before continuing it's serialization, or Miura, who's is doing all of the art and story by himself and providing his support to three movies and now a new anime adaption, is an idiocy by itself. smh

Comments in quotes.

@King:

Also notice that Franky never used robot jokes during Dressrosa.

He tansformed his legs into a tank while moving around with Kyros.

We know that Sanji knows her, but does he also know about her appearance?

@Kaido:

The panel listing the Kid Alliance being at odds with Kaido is interesting… Kinda guess things didn't go well for them

None of them seem to be the submissive types, so a conflict was the most foreseeable outcome of their latest scene.

@Solid:

http://www.mangareader.net/one-piece/705/12

Could the man speaking to doflamingo be the same CP0 agent sent to dressrosa?
They are about the same size and wear a similar hat, also his face was mysteriously hidden in chapter 595.

sorry for using mangareaders scan, but couldn't find any alternative..

We will probably never know. It has been discussed in the ch705 thread and plenty of other places already.

As big as the are they would have no other way of transportation/movement to get to another island, of course they would be great swimmers.

@Sephi:

How very odd. Idk how one can release a chapter a week early but ok, that makes sense…. but is still irritating.

something something, no delivery during holidays, early delivery, nothing really confusing once you put some thoughts to it.

Sanji is becoming her personal chef after all. XD

@Mihawk88:

! do you know where can i access or read viz translation for free

You buy it once, then you can access it all year for free.
