You know I think I'd vibe with living in Totto Land. Cool place. Live in the outskirts somewhere, eat rocks and grass. Why not?

Biggest con I'd say is to have your lifespan taxed so Big Mom can make a loving talking teacup

Also related to that, Linlin really is built differently because she's like as old as Whitebeard, had over fifty kids and used parts of her soul to make four catastrophic powerful homies but still hasn't shown any signs of losing vitality

it still feels like there's something more to Mihawk than we know what with how they immediately jumped to giving him a higher bounty than Luffy or Blackbeard. I feel like his parentage or something about his past is yet to be revealed

I'd probs just chalk it to him being the strongest character shown so far other than Big Mom or Kaido. Also holy loving hell I feel bad for Buggy lmaoooo

Also I feel real bad for Buggy, not only Alvida and Mr. 3, but also his own lieutenants went "oh yeah guess we'll work for Crocodile now when he kills the boss" ahahahahahahaha

Mihawk's called the "Marine Hunter" probably cause he went around cutting up Marines, I don't think it's strange to think that cops would consider pig butchers a higher threat than someone who kills civilians.

I do wonder if it's because he's the kind of guy who would sink several Marine Battleships while looking to duel with a strong swordsman like Issho

Even if he's weak, Buggy grew up in the crew of some of the strongest guys around, so he can definitely take a hit.

Gotta be good at resisting Conqueror's Haki too, else he'd have spent his entire time on the Oro Jackson unconscious.


Wasn't he knocked out by Shanks' CH? at Marinehord?

Giants being with the Marines is also a recent phenomena, it was Carmel who convinced some of them to join.

Huh, I never put it together that Mother Carmel probably had a hand in convincing Oimo and Kashi to guard the front gate of Enies Lobby.

Nah, they were on Elbaf on Linlin's flashback. It is explicitly said that the Giant Vice-Admiral was introduced to the Marines with Carmel's help though

I just realized my favorite subtle joke in this chapter on the reread: Chopper almost dies wearing a cold weather hat he doesn’t even need because he’s already a reindeer. He probably doesn’t even need winter clothes at all!

Looking closer and I noticed that Burguess' face got real hosed up by Sabo. It was hinted to when he was at Baltigo and his face was covered in a shadow but in this chapter half of his head is covered in metal plates.

expository conversation among the crew about how its just like that time jinbe no sold big moms soul gambit before he reveals that no hes just that hardboiled

In soul pocus case it's just that it only works on those afraid of Big Mom and Jinbe has colossal balls that prevents him from that

Blackbeard's strategy continuing to be just loving charge in when he thinks he can win no matter how much damage he'll take because he can take it even if it'll loving hurt remains my favorite comparison to Luffy who has a similar approach but doesn't care if the odds are in his favorite at all. Especially when it keeps leading to Blackbeard eating poo poo and this being called out.

Also his own crew being completely resigned to his reckless antics at this point.

Chapter

We probably haven't seen Vegapunk 0 because he literally split his body, and needs all of the other Vegapunks to come together first. Perhaps if CP0 manage to start killing off his bodies then he'll gradually reform into his original self.

Even with Franky's tech, I didn't expect One Piece to go full sci-fi on us! I guess I always assumed that the various bits and pieces of real or future tech like video screens and Franky's body were just for flavour and/or convenience, like in Naruto. I should have trusted in Oda more.


0 probably has a Dr House situation where he is a trillion years old and on a suspended stasis chamber or is a literal brain in a jar. Also holy hell Seraphim are now for post timeskip the same kind of near unbeatable threat the Pacifista were at Sabaody

Vegapunk just told us that the WG doesn't actually keep him in the loop too much, I wouldn't be surprised if we find out there's more going on there and something has happened to Elbaf/the books, or is about to. This just feels like too much good news, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop and for a den den mushi to pipe in announcing the successful assault on Elbaf or something.

I think there's going to be an invasion of Elbaf with the Seraphim but it might be during the Elbaf arc itself. Like the others above said, I think it would be the perfect place for a confrontation with Akainu and the Marines right before the final stretch vs Blackbeard (and maybe Shanks)

But for real if the WG knew about Punk Records then that's the biggest reason CP0 is there. No loving way that won't be used to spread out the Void Century truth, especially considering Vegapunk memorized all of Ohara's books.

Seeing Vegapunk's gigantic head had awoken a deep memory of a cartoon I vaguely remember where a space captain landed on a planet where the people had big heads and they had to use supports to hold their heads. I think it was a short in the What a Cartoon series.

It would be a pretty fun what-if to go back and see the modern Straw Hats clown on their old foes. Maybe have one of the games cover all of the major arcs, then let you go back as Gear 5 Luffy or Raid Suit Sanji with absolutely no balancing whatsoever.
