[Not Kuno]

Well I have finally caught up with the manga. Who do you think has the advantage in a Whitebeard crew vs government + Shichibukai fight. Whitebeard seems to have 3 more dudes of about Ace's level so they should each be similar strength to a Shichibukai making 4 very strong guys on his side, then you have like ~8 Shichibukai more plus admirals that seem to put the balance of power on the government side. Whitebeard will be very very strong himself but is he good enough to make up for having less strong guys. Do you think Shanks or other pirate groups will team up with him?

I don't know if they'll actually fight. If they do, I doubt we'll see a whole lot of it.

Luffy is going to free Ace before the fight start, I dont think they will fight. I actually hope they don't, because I'm not really interested in seeing 3/4 of those people, unless they do it offscreen (I really don't want another Bleach).



I thought Ace was on the 5th floor, not 6th. Three chapters was the time I was hoping it would take to reach him, it might take a few more chapters to actually free him (find the key..etc).

My guess
Chapter 531: Free number 2 and run to the 4th floor
Chapter 532: Water themed floor, holy shit, Crocodile is there
Chapter 533: More fighting/running
Chapter 534: Drop down and rush to Ace
Chapter 535: The poison dude get there, try to stop luffy
Chapter 536-538: Big fight
Chapter 539: Fight isn't going well, the only exit is blocked
Chapter 540: They escape to the 6th floor

When they show Ace's location it never says "Level 5". It's just prisoners guessing that he would be held there. I bet that Hancock is going to have to help save/fight with Luffy. She's going to lose her title, they will save Ace. Luffy will get a sort of "one wish" type of thing with Whitebeard for saving his son and he will pick to protect Amazon Lily.

Yeah, I guess Hancock will jump in eventually. It would be surprising if she doesn't do anything for Luffy after the recent development.


One thing I'm curious to see is Kuma's agenda. I wonder who he is working for right now.

[Resin]

I dunno--I kinda think he's just on his own agenda right now and his own sense of right and wrong.

[Not Kuno]

The thing about Kuma is we have no idea about his past. Ok he was a pirate. But we don't know who he was assosiated with, or why he's a pacifista, why hes with the WG now etc. So I'm saving any sort of judgement until we actually find out something.

[Kaylia]

He might be working with Luffy's father maybe? They will have to introduce him sooner or later.

Whoops misread. Whoosh indeed.

Whoops misread. Whoosh indeed.

Wasn't just you >.>



I'm wondering if Sengoku is going to give Garp an ultimatum to stop Luffy or maybe get involved directly.

[Tokitoki]

Even if he tried, I dont think Garp could stop him. Luffy is really set on getting Ace out of there, and rightfully so, and I dont imagine hed let anything stop him.

[Not Kuno]

Garp won't be able to get there in time. He's already back at the holy land. He'd have to get down to Marine HQ then allll the way around to Enies and then reach ID.

[yayaok]

this week's chapter was win indeed, man i love mr2 lol

Might want to edit that again. <_<

Spoiler: show

FUCK NO MR. 3 IS BACK QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ

Spoiler: show

You mean Mr.2? Bon Clay was Mr.2 I thought. I wasn't thrilled about it at first either, but I'm okay with it now.

[Correction]

Spoiler: show

If you think about it for five minutes it's not too difficult to figure out the much larger role Bonclay has to play in this escapade. Just stare at the unnecessary re-explanation of his powers for a minute and you'll figure it out, too.

[Kaylia]

I don't understand Mr 2 Power. How could he knock down that beast so easily (or was it really weak?)

Might want to edit that again. <_<

If Yoda can fuck up words order, I can too.

[Correction]

Mister 2 was third in command to a Shichibukai. That marks his strength as pretty independent of his devil fruit power.

[Not Kuno]

Great chapter.

Spoiler: show

Kinda upset they're having ANOTHER week on this floor. Once again Ace's level is listed as "the level ace is being held", also the guy says "this is truely the lowest place in the world" aka level 6. I'm glad the Hancock stuff is mostly over with, as she did what she needed to do. I hope they get to level 4 next week. Also Mr. 2 showing up again is great, and he was pretty strong.

[Kaylia]

Mister 2 was third in command to a Shichibukai. That marks his strength as pretty independent of his devil fruit power.

Of course, but I'm still wondering why Luffy didn't get ride of it asap, since he should be much stronger than Mister 2. Anyway, not really important I guess.


"I also have someone to meet on floor 5" = Crocodile?
