I guess it could be either but the hair and outfit doesn't match either perfectly and if it's an established character why have her be the only one with her back turned. Dragon also seems to know Vegapunk well.

A school festival is a festival that takes place at our school!
It seems to be a reoccurring thing where Gear 5 Luffy starts causing unnecessary damage from being too out of control. I'm guessing this is what happened with the original Joy Boy breaking his promise and the prophecy of Luffy being the one to destroy Fishmanisland.

idk, it works on the entirety of Amazon Lily specifically because they just think Hancock is the most beautiful (powerful) one there so the targeting mechanics are kinda lax, I just figure everyone getting slammed is thinking “oh my god what an adorable/powerful little lady, she’s even cuter than my nephew!” than thinking Bad Thoughts.

PÄDOPHILIE MACHT FREI
Since CP0 now intend to "Block all escape routes from the island", seems pretty likely they'll be paying a visit to the Sunny soon. Good job they left Zoro there to guard it. Wonder if the CP0 guys have any swordsmen present who might be capable of seriously fighting Zoro? For example, a clone of Mihawk.

It's a waste if that kid doesn't try to slice the ship in half and get blocked.

Edit: Now I think about it, it's even more obvious. That's literally a cross between Mihawk (the guy he needs to beat next) and King (the guy he just beat), and it's going to have some of King's gimmicks which only Zoro knows how to counter. This is a perfect chance for Zoro to get practice before the real thing.

They mentioned last week that commands given via Dendens don't work so at least 1 Vegapunk body would have to be there in person/earshot. And given that he is CP0's primary target, that's probably not the wisest course of action for self preservation.

Lucci is an awakened zoan, who were touted back in impel Down to have extreme stamina and recovery. Assuming he has the same resilience as the Mino guards he'd probably be tough as gently caress to keep down without, say, punching him into an undersea volcano or something.

Remember that CP0 was specifically commanded not to attack Luffy, lest they start a war with the crew of an emperor. Lucci disregarded that because of his personal grudge with Luffy.

Good chap

Sentomaru not being able to block Lucci despite using Conquerors coating (presumeably) seems like Oda setting up a weakness for later. Luffy, Kidd, Law et al were able to damage Kaido in a similar way during Roof Piece. Looks like it was left deliberately vague though, since Sentomaru comments that he thought he blocked it.

Love the translators' note that Luffy's attacks could be 'white' but also sounds like the 'DON!' sound effect that gets used often for awesome things, and sounds like 'dawn' which fits into Luffy's whole motif of bringing the dawn, sun god, etc. Oda Does It Again (tm).

Gear Fifth owns, giant Luffy head trying to bite Lucci owns, Luffy spitting out bricks/rocks at Lucci very much owns.

I can rest easy now with confimration that Senor Pink is alive.

Vegapunk confirming that Logias are fundamentally different from Parameicia/Zoan fruits. I wonder if Logia are natural fruits and the rest were created. None of this helps explain what Blackbeard did.

Momo will definitely awaken his fruit to confirm that artifical fruits can be awakened.

Luffy turning his hair into goggles makes me wish Whitebeard was around so Luffy could pull off Whitebeard's mustache and throw it like a boomerang.
