Wasn't Absolom just reanimated animal parts and tissue to begin with? Sounds like he's returning to his roots instead of dying

IIRC, the whole thing about Absalom was that he was a living man who got upgraded Frankenstein-style. It's why most of his skin is a healthy pink.

Oh yeah, it's awesome. It does make me wonder though. If that's the bounty of an Emperor, then it makes me wonder how high the other bounties are and how high Dragon's is, what with him being the most wanted man in the world.

Blackbeard's bounty is probably unusually low, given that he basically operates by waiting it out until the dust has settled and sweeping in to loot all he can.

on the other hand, if you consider what the difference between luffy and zoro usually is (or other captains/first mates), it'd make sense for emperors to be worth about the same as blackbeard

Wonder if it has anything to do with Doflamingo going by 'Joker'?

So, how do you think Zoro will take on Shiliew(?) Now?
Will he close his right eye, or open his left?

I wonder if the "interesting topic" Mihawk mentioned is the abolishment of the Warlord system. Would make sense for him to want Perona gone if she couldn't claim to be under his protection.

It was kind of cute how he got legit remorseful when he thought Absalom was there by choice and that he'd just ruined the party.

Quick thoughts:

-Glad that we got to see the goings on of the rest of the world, even if it was for about half a chapter. I'd be disappointed if the chapter just started with the curtains opening back up again.
-That being said, really annoyed we missed the Revolutionaries and their attack, gently caress that poo poo.
-I find it both a bit sad and disappointing that Absalom died off like that. Makes me wonder why Oda made him a field-reporter if nothing really came of it, and then to just kill him offscreen that way. And it's only been a few days in-universe since he last appeared, how did he get captured so fast?
-It's really heartwarming that Moriah stormed an Emperor's island to save one of his crew, the big ugly goblin-man truly DOES care.
-Initially disappointed with Blackbeard's new design since it took us so long to see him, so I thought he'd be the one pirate to get an eyepatch. That being said, a number of pictures of the real-life Blackbeard depicts him with a similar beard-style, so that was a good touch on Oda's part.
-Glad we got to see the other two Disasters after so long, can't wait to see what kind of Devil Fruits they inevitably have.

And he even has a brace of pistols, now he just needs to put live fuses in his beard. It makes a funny amount of sense for Blackbeard's beard to grow with his power.

And of course Blackbeard's idea of downtime is the most properly piratey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bZl1XBpyuI

That's exactly what Oda admits to going for with the Blackbeard pirates, iirc.
