When Luffy and co. end up attacking Mariejois (the D clan stuff on Dressrosa and whatever's on Raftel will definitely implicate Mariejois and the Celestial Dragons directly I think), will we finally see the Gorosei fight? I can't imagine them not being Haki-users or something strong to be able to intimidate Akainu of all people.

Keep on GOP rolling rolling rolling rolling.

So official translations are out online, no missing pieces from the magical climatact, usopp was merely lost a little on "make it a magic wand." But what nami has is possibly her final weapon.

Okay, that makes more sense. But yeah, I'd be surprised if Nami got another upgrade after this.

Nami and Robin are always getting upgrades. It's a question as to whether or not Franky is more human than they are now.

This guarantees she gets at least one more good fight, which I'm totally fine with. Three big, but really good fights over the series is a dream Robin can only wish for.

Yeah, I guess Robin will have to settle for revealing the secrets of the world and the lost history of the Void Century. Oh well!

I think this is a given. I hope at least, didn't Jinbei say he owed big mom? This would be the perfect opportunity to bring him back, last time we saw him he was floating around in a boat.

I think that's kind of the weird thing about it. I want to see all the strawhats excel at their specialties.. not really a series of tournament fights. It'd be neat to see Nami do some clutch extremely complicated orienteering, or busting out a sextant and explaining some cool celestial navigation stuff.. but in the end I guess it's a shonen series... so Nami gets a magic cloud stick. :ghost:

I don't remember the specifics of it, but yea jimbei was heading to big mom. I think he was gonna break ties with her or something? seems like a guarantee that he'll meet up with luffy's team along the way to rescue sanji

Hasn't it only been like 2 weeks in-universe since they left Fishman Island, though?

I believe the time between Dressrosa and Zou was explicitly two weeks. I think Punk Hazard to Dressrosa was only a day or two, because of the way they found out about Doflamingo's "resignation" from the morning paper. Fishman Island to Punk Hazard seemed to be less than a day, but I don't think there was an explicit statement.

So a little over two weeks.

Travel time between islands (and time spent partying, recovering, etc.) is actually a lot more explicit now than it was prior to the time skip. I think Oda's response to a SBS question about Cody's growth spurt implied that the pre-skip storyline took place over the course of 3 months or so.

Edit: I just realized I was only including travel time. I think they spent less than a full day on Punk Hazard, but spent a few days recovering on Dressrosa. So about 3 weeks total?

Considering Jimbei's ties with Big Mom, it's actually pretty likely Luffy might run into him on Whole Cake island.

Pedro's reaction to Luffy throwing them all off the elephant is incredible. Here's this guy that has some idea about group dynamics and what's considered normal. A simple decent, no problem. Then next second he's in the air with who knows what kind of thoughts racing through his head. Enemy attack? Betrayal? An accident?

We like Jinbei because he's a cool character with a cool design and many cool powers. It would also be nice to have a non-human (Chopper excluded) crew member, and Jinbei could add a lot of dynamic to water fights. I also think he's pretty funny as a not-so-straight straight man.

Nami using her weather and navigational skills in some epic chase would be the most appropriate final fight for her that make use of her skills.

To find Raftel Robin will have to decipher all the clues but I'm sure Nami will have to do some brilliant navigating. Whether either of them have a decent fight again is secondary to the fact that without them the story would just be 'crew of strong guys wander aimlessly until they die of old age'
