@Jackermeister:

Well, that's what I think happened. It would explain the change in his personality and why he wants to take down Kaido. Could also be the reason he turned against Dofla (did they mention when he left dofla's crew or anything?).

And you simply ignored that:
1. They were in a recent color spread.
2. They were introduced for a reason.
3. Characters rarely die in One Piece.

@Jackermeister:

Having your entire crew murdered can do that to you.

Except that they weren't.

@dragonsword:

I cant wait for the bear with the sword.in law's crew. or was it a panda?

Yes .

@Foxy:

Because the Viz translation says the same thing. Why are you so skeptical of it?

Why shouldn't I be?

@Foxy:

El Dorado and One Piece are both real, so the odds are in the Emerald City's favor.

How to do you know it's not a mistranslation?

@Strawhat:

Except that we weren't supposed to take it literally.

But here Oda mentioned another legendary place, whether we see it or not.

And how do you know that this was supposed to be taken literally?

@Hisoga:

is there a blood at the right side of Dofla mouth or just a shadow?

Yes .

And Luffy will meet Ace in the Pirate Summit, right?

@Foxy:

My mistake, he said "El Dorado" instead of "Skypiea." But he did mention the "Emerald City."

Emerald City = City of Gold, which was on Skypeia.

@Foxy:

Remember when Bellamy mentioned the Emerald City? He said it was a myth like Skypiea and One Piece.

And Yukiryu is the winter island that Shanks owns.

He actually meant the City of Gold on Sky Island.
