GodFish posted:I always love the post arc wrap up chapters. Ussop was great, but the fact Bart is joining them on the next adventure maybe is better. No, Spandam was there and taking orders from Lucci, who is now CP0. Probably not, but it looks like Doffy is being rescued or captured by someone.

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!

Shoren posted:Given that he's the third son of the family it's not unlikely that he ran away because he wanted something different in life. Since the first son takes over the estate there wouldn't really be a reason for Sanji to stick around if he wanted to be a chef. He's probably a celestial dragon, as mentioned tons of times before. Unlike Doffy he just ran away and didn't have his dad revoke their status. Hence why a huge bounty but only alive and why he;s getting "married."

DeadBonesBrook posted:Clover wasn't a Roger pirate (or at least hasn't been confirmed as one so far). All it took was a few scholars and a single Poneglyph for someone to crack the language, so it's not without the realm of possibility for others to learn how to do it again. There may also be a DF that lets people read any language. Roger couldn't read them but didn't need to, he had a weird ability that poo poo just talked to him without any effort on his part. He could even understand Sea Kings (like Luffy, who probably shares the entirety of this ability)

Shoren posted:We don't know for certain that the poneglyphs are the only source of information for the world's ancient history, but for conversation's sake I'll concede that Robin's dream essentially boils down to reading all the poneglyphs. But again, Robin is necessary because even if Luffy could "read" the poneglyphs that still doesn't mean that A) he would understand them, B) he would care what they're saying, C) he would accurately convey the information to his crew, and D) someone in his crew could understand the overarching importance of them. Pretty much. There is a reason why Roger had the guy from Wano with him when even though he could "read" the poneglyphs. He could tell you where Raftel was by looking at them and the jist of the message that survived the Blank Century, but only Robin would care and contextualize why it's actually important. More importantly, it going to make more narrative and thematic sense when he reaches there, reads their message, and if the story continues from there...motivates him on a personal level. Luffy just isn't being read a textbook by Robin, he gets a direct message from the past with Robin there to explain how important it was.

SyntheticPolygon posted:Scarring Shanks is a drat impressive accomplishment even if you had to be dirty to do it Shanks outright says he wasn't being careless. Blackbeard just dealt him a serious wound in the early stages of both their careers. Likewise Ace has the flashback to Blackbeard giving his blessing because he indeed took Blackbeard throwing his support behind Ace as fond personal memory he cherished. One from a man he respected and who's betrayal he took very personally. Also Whitebeard outright warned Ace about how dangerous Teach was and even said it might be best not to pursue Blackbeard and just let it go for now because of it. The entire reason he acted like a dick to Shanks was because to do otherwise would be disrespecting his son Ace to a stranger.

Your Dunkle Sans posted:I do think Kaidou (or maybe Big Mom) will be the Straw Hats' Enies Lobby moment in the New World where they really have to struggle and maybe face some set backs to bounce back from. I think Big Mom fills more of a Enel or Arlong role in the story now. Luffy is just going to have to go all out and beat her, much like Arlong/Enel and maybe his fruit will allow him an extra advantage to a foe whose fruit is otherwise overwhelming. I mean he is going to save a crew member much like the Arlong arch. Kaido is where the big showdown is going to happen because the dude titles openly brag about the fact, "yes I Kaido have gotten my rear end handed to me! So what? I get back up, no matter how ridiculous the situation and keep on fighting. No one can kill me, not even myself" and Luffy is going to have to digg down deep, risk his own health and get creative to defeat him permanently. (At which point I think the Reviere just happens and the number one agenda becomes "Holy poo poo, Luffy just destroyed two of Emperors of the Sea within a couple weeks, what the hell?"

Luffy, much like Enies Lobby, will pull new tricks out of his rear end and manage a win through both skill and just sheer determination. Kadiou will be the one Luffy has to pull all the stops, give 110 percent, and even then rely on teamwork and new allies to come up with a victory (like Thriller Park).

Silver2195 posted:The power dynamic involved is pretty disturbing. Also makes me wonder about Crocodile and Robin. That's kind of the point. Keep in mind unlike Robin, Violet was trying to make sure both Doffy didn't kill her niece or her father AND tried to get him to see her as 'part of the family' to make her less disposable emotionally to him. Likewise he thought making her his lover would ensure genuine loyalty from her. Crocodile and Robin had a pure business relationship with her and the vast majority of his associates, it was ironically one of Croc's weaknesses. His crew didn't know of his plans and very few of them would be willing to lay down their lives to further them.

Pureauthor posted:They're not beating Big Mom with half their crew not even present. It's totally happening because the whole theme of this arc is Big Mom is a coward who hides behind allies and political connections because at this point if she had what it took to be Pirate King, she could have done it already with what family she has and fighting ability. Luffy having all his friends and allies with him concedes that Big Mom's way of doing poo poo is the correct way

Silver2195 posted:I don't think that was ever the theme. As Luffy pointed out back in Arlong Park, his crew can do things he can't; he needs them. The thing though is, she's hiding behind her crew right now. Luffy needs his friends and crewmates, he freely admits that. But when someone needs to be knocked out, he does that because it's his job as Captain. The inability to trust and rely on Crew or friendship is going to be what defeats Kadio. He's going to hulk out in the end game and try to beat Luffy single handily while Law and a bunch of his other allies team up with him and beat the poo poo out of him. He retains his title as world's strongest monster but Luffy gets closer to the one he actually wants. anime was right posted:since oda loves weird chapter things, what do you think chapter 1000 will be? 900 will be Big Mom's defeat or after her defeat. Luffy becomes a Yonko at the big hundred wrap off. 1000 will be Akainu makes his move, Reverie happens and a big setting changing announcement happens there, or the Straw Hats learn where the last piece of the Road Polygraph is hidden after obtaining the other 3. Maybe just a scrub celebration that Luffy defeated Kaido and technically the Yonko system is completely gone, and the race for the throne of Pirate King has actually begun but I doubt it.

Gyges posted:Actually now that we know what her fruit power is, she could be remembering back to when she went against Big Mom. The flashback is triggered by another lady telling her to do as Big Mom wants, which segues into Big Mom telling Pudding to simply do as she is told and referring to Pudding as a little doll. Remember that Lola asks everyone to marry her, but we recently found out that she ran away from a marriage. Also Lola remembers her mom loving her and thinks that she'd help the Strawhats if they ever met. Meanwhile Big Mom hates Lola and wants to know where she is so that she can send an assassin. Yeah the twist is Pudding is even more evil rear end in a top hat than Big Mom

Asuron posted:Yeah there's also this. This arc is wrapping up soon by Odas own admission so we get to Reverie and Wano this year. If you think an event like beating an Emperor is happening when Odas going about this massive setup just to prepare for beating Kaidou, i'm sorry I dont think you know what you're talking about. It's not about Luffys strength, it's about where the narrative is heading and right now the narrative is being setup so that Luffys actions on this island are going to have Big Mom deadset on chasing him across the New World and decimating any allies (this is where the Fishman island prophecy comes in) for assisting him in retaliation for his actions. He's going to strike some sort of huge blow here no doubt, but this is not where he beats her. This is where he enrages the crap outta her. Thats why the explosive box is being setup the way it is. Luffy is going to beat the poo poo out of Big Mom here, not defeat her. He's going to defeat Kaidou first
