Holy poo poo, didn't notice it was Spandam the first time around. I did notice, however, that Lucci's pigeon has it's own mask.

Yeeeeeeesssssssss

New bounties are everything I wanted, I love the art on that one page breaking down the various factions, stark black and white is so badass, MORE LUCCI?!?!? I'm so loving hyped for the next arc! Pity we started the new thread early, I'm sure someone clever coulda worked up something with Game of Thrones as the thread title.

Something nobodies going to notice was brought up by someone who speaks Japanese and read the raws.

The guy talking with Lucci about the weapons trade is Kaku. He has the same unique speech pattern where he uses old timey slang.

I suspect you get a free pass when said pirate later charges into a fight with your entire leadership structure and makes it out unscathed.

CP9/0 and Admirals vs Straw Hat Grandfleet and the Revolutionaries for the arc after Kaido is my bet. Doffy isn't done yet either, as he's about to be rescued by Kaido. So I'm guessing Law takes down Doffy to get some personal revenge, while Luffy and Zorro take down Kaido. Also Bart is tagging along for everything!

Man if the whole Sanji wanted poster not showing his face in the past is now being used again but this time for very important plot reasons(maybe he's related to someone in the World Goverment or Marines that recongized him) I will be so happy.

Amazing chapter

It pretty much has to be. He's the only bounty posted to be Alive only. Something funny is up, Mr. Prince might have been a hint

Ugh, the worst thing about this chapter is that we probably won't see the beatdown between Sengoku, Fujitora and Otsuru and whoever's attacking them. :( To be honest I would be incredibly excited to see a full fight between Otsuru and anyone, she has such a kooky power that's still pretty strong. Also a badass old lady!

That was fun! After so much decompression, it's amazing how much Oda can cram into one little chapter.

Looks like we got our first sort-of look at Ryokugyu on that big cast splash, but no hint of the seventh warlord? X Drake is suspiciously separated from the rest of the supernovas. Could be nothing, could be Oda does it again

So the Straw Hats now have no less than three Shichibukai in their pockets. Wonder if they'll be recruiting any more? Mihawk seems like a big no - he's friendly, but only because he and Zoro like testing each other as antagonists, and actively fighting alongside them seems like missing the point. Kuma would be a good fit personality-wise, and would be easy to bring back (Vegapunk has a backup copy of his personality lying around - there, done), but he's so hilariously overpowered that he'd be extraordinarily difficult to write around. Maybe we might see his mind in the body of a regular Pacifista? Crocodile's just too much of a Bond villain, even if they've had an alliance of convenience in the past. Buggy's a no-go - his whole thing is being Luffy's likeable sad-sack evil counterpart, and he's far more likely to end up as the Whitebeard to Luffy's Gol D. Roger. Moria actually seems like a surprisingly reasonable option, though - his power is high-tier but not invincible (and is significantly hampered if he's working as a good guy), making him at least possible to write for, and he could easily pull a Bellamy.

Moria was a cool villain, so I'd be glad to see him return. Come to think of it, wasn't Kaido the one who killed Moria's crew way back when? I wonder if Moria will show up to help take him down.

Might be cause he's workin' for Kaidou? Then again, Capone might be workin' for Big Mom but he's with the rest of the Supernovas.

I'm going to assume it's of no signifiance for now, and then when Oda does something to refer to it I'm going to post something along the lines of "ODA DOES IT AGAIN" and "ODA THE GOD" and "ODA NEVER FORGETS" and post as many :vince:s as possible.

The most important part: Usopp's face is on there now. There's no way his village can deny it's him, which is kinda what I was expecting once the story was over and he went home, that the wanted poster having Sogeking on it would lead to nobody believing he made anything of himself out there. But that's out the window for sure now!

Aside from that one gently caress up, they were still pretty competent and were able to beat off the Marines who were after them pre timeskip. Akainu is pragmatic above all else so he probably cut them a deal to bring them back into the fold

I think it's going to be a case of mistaken identity and we're going to get a reverse Duval

I really hope we see more of the fight. I can't imagine anyone being able to take down all three and escape unscathed.

God drat there was so much awesome poo poo packed into that chapter I don't even know what I'm most excited about.

It's Sanji. We have a backstory but not an origin story, besides being from North (right?) Blue so oh man there's so much potential there.

I'm not. I mean, he was specifically sent off during the Dressrossa arc to lead half the Straw Hats on a separate adventure. I mean, if not the details, folks should've at least seen the generalities coming.

I feel like a Strawhat being a renounced Celestial/Noble would provide a nice emotional hook for the inevitable showdown between the World Government and the crew - it would give Luffy a reason to give a poo poo, if nothing else

How do you do, fellow Regis?
Oda the Troll suckering me with the first few pages, I thought we were gonna have another Dressrosa wrap up chapter...and then boom!

I noticed that the Yonko images for Kaido/Big Mom more closely resemble the ones we saw during Garp's introduction of them, especially Kaido's mouth.

Is there a third person in the Revolutionaries drawing on the far left who we haven't seen before?

Sanji backstory arc incoming, oh god, I always thought if anyone had a missing backstory it would be Nami (due to how she and her sister met Bellamere and the nature of her weather predicting powers).

gently caress running around after Pica, this is One Piece right here, I'm so excited for next week!
