Luffy must feel terrible.

He dragged so many people (hancock, Mr. 3, crocodile, mr.2, jinbei etc.) and there all going to be getting in trouble (marines will likely figure hancock was helping and do something to amazon lily). Mr. 2 even died to help luffy. Only to find that all that work was for nothing...

Luffy is going to toughen up and get more serious after this war along with his whole crew.

And yeah bowser king Hancock will get in trouble by the marines but to be honest i totally do not know exactly what will happen after the war. There is so many possibilities you can think of yet Oda will always suprise us with somthing we never even thought of.

Saw the latest spoilers for this chapter and some pictures and for me it's the best chapter so far. :p

i wish there was a new one every week but the other 2 of the big three which do come out weekly have been going down hill so maybe its better this way.

pretty cool chapter
i can't wait to see what blackbeard's new crew members can do Also whitebeard's pretty awesome but what did they mean when they said he lost his face or something like that

punctuation is for fools :)

Oda is far from lazy. and besides the guy got a family and at least he isn't taking year breaks like the guy who does hunter x hunter

Whitebeard has so been sand bagging lol.

Seriously this chapter exactley detailed his powers much more better and how good they can be.

I was hoping for luffy to go all rage and destroy things but i see were Oda is going with this.

Yeah that huge mofo is his ship. The rest of his crew is probably the prisoners mentioned earlier by Ivankov (lots of people in the community predicted this)... the drinker is Basco Shot, the woman is Catherine Devon, and the other guy (might be) Roche Tomson.

Yeah the nickname "Colossal Battleship" is obvious that he is going to be blackbeards ship which is actually pretty cool since it's diffrent and cool.

But seriously after seeing the way blackbeard made his entrance him and luffy are EXACTLY THE SAME. Just Blackbeard has a evil side to him. I mean they both had epic entrances to this war. Even luffy's was pretty cool even if they did fall from a ship but the way he came with all these prisoners was a suprise and no one was expecting him to come then black beard makes his entrance the same way with prisoners lol.

Hmm wonder what's going to happen next chapter sucks that they are on break but oh well. I'm thinking donflamingo might have some fun against some of the blackbeard pirates if sengoku says to attack them. What i think is Garp will go on and attack blackbeard then it will be WB vs WG vs BB or if he doesn't attack blackbeard what i think will happen is that the world government might stand back for alittle and let blackbeard finish of whitebeard.

Luffy should do a massive gear 3rd while escaping lol. But poor luffy :(

Most epic pirate is shanks for me. ;)

I love this arc so much, ever since Shabondy Archipelago...

Luffy already had a huge 300 mil bounty, but with his crew taking on all of Thriller bark we definitely saw that they reached a new level of strength.

By associating Luffy with the eleven supernovas and putting him on a pedestal by allowing him to fight alongside Kidd and Law, he was given status as one of the strongest rookies to ever come from that side of Red Line. They had the government worried since there were so many 100 mil+ bounties there, which means Luffy's generation was proving itself.

Then Shakky tells them "Rayleigh is a thousand times stronger than all of you combined."

The straw hats, as well as Kidd and Law, are able to pick off marines like ants but get decimated by Kuma/PX robots, Kizaru, and Sentoumaru. Sentoumaru, some weird fat dude who nobody knows, makes Luffy look like trash.

Luffy is separated from his crew and begins his journey to save Ace. He is thrown onto an island where any other man would've surely died, and his power to befriend just about anybody takes over. A shichibukai falls in love with him.

He infiltrates the Impel Down, which is basically hell, causes a ruckus, and ends up finding allies on every level. Every time we thought he would die, he didn't, including when he got absolutely wrecked by Magellan. By this time, we've come to realize that despite taking down two Shichibukai and conquering Enies Lobby with a single crew, Luffy is still a CHUMP compared to the real bosses of the World government. However, this is when we started to see what his "true" power is.

Just before his escape, he meets his rival, who once again speaks of Fate. Blackbeard, the most menacing and relentless yet the most charismatic villain in One Piece, is wrecked effortlessly by Magellan. This sorta showed that Luffy and Blackbeard may be at different levels, but they both still have a long way to go.

With the help of new allies, Luffy escapes. Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, Robin, Franky, and Brook temporarily became Buggy, Mr. 3, Mr. 2 Bon Clay, Daz Bones, Inazuma, Ivankov, Crocodile, and Jimbei.

A little later, Blackbeard also escapes Magellan with new allies. Though Luffy's allies just sorta banded together with no intent to stay together, Blackbeard recruited from the depths of hell and created a crew that now has even more people than the Straw Hats.

They make it to the battle... more names, faces, and status. Whitebeard, Marco, Jaws, Oars Jr., Vista, and more. Sengoku, Garp, Kizaru, Aokiji, Akainu. All current and former shichibukai. Kuma was already unbeatable, but now there's a army of them. Luffy's status just gets smaller and smaller, and getting wrecked in battle just adds injury to insult.

Of all people, Luffy gets defeated by Vice Admiral Momonga and a couple nameless Zoans. He still can't even beat Smoker. Though it was heroic for him to face the 3 admirals, his attack does absolutely nothing.

Amidst the battle, Mihawk makes it apparent that Luffy's "true" power is to 'become allies with anyone he meets.' There is absolutely no way Luffy could have done it alone, and in fact, this is how it has worked in every arc. He needed his crew to defeat who he defeated. They all provided essential support, and he did what he set out to do. "Which one of you is Arlong?!" "So all I have to do is kick Crocodile's *** and everything will be fine, right?" "SAY YOU WANT TO LIVE!" "I'm definitely going to save Ace."

Luffy, the determined chump with infinite allies, is able to save Ace with sheer will power. Luffy never fails in what he says he'll do, but suddenly it all goes to waste as Akainu kills Ace. Ace, the brother he went to hell and back and almost to hell again for, dies in his arms.







And then Blackbeard appears unscathed and literally on top of the world.











This is such a brilliant setup for their rivalry. This is just the beginning.
