It basically wanted to show the training Luffy had as a kid. Then show how he always thought of Sabo and Ace as being stronger than him. This is either going to have him go into some crazy training or he's just going to start second guessing himself. [/quote] Yeah... now he's doubting whether he really is suited to be the Pirate King. Hmm... Who will slap some sense in him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he going to teach him how to use his King's Presence (the thing that knocked everyone out in the arena when he first got to the female islang) Also it looks like the some of the strawhats r heading back while we have no clue how others r getting back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotlung Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 The last chapter is very interesting. Luffy apperantly did something that is news worthy and everyone knows about it. Heck even dragon has took notice. I wonder what he did??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magus Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Caught up here too. It's definately satisfying to see the rest of the strawhats again although I thought Ussop was dreaming or something. I didn't expect to see him pickup so much weight. I wonder what that message Luffy left was? I'm actually shocked to see Mihawk in the same place as Zoro and nothing's happening between them. I kind of wanted Robin to meet with Dragon just to see what they would talk about. With Ace asking Jinbei to look after Luffy makes me wonder if that's going to be the next crew member?

rotlung Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 I could honestly see Jinbei as a Strawhat. In the lastest chapter guess what's happening.... Training.... Sanji and Chopper just started their personal training to better themselves and better the crew. I have a feeling this is going to happen to everyone here shortly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magus Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Hmm... So we won't be reading One Piece for an entire month and when we do get more One Piece it'll be a two year time skip. I am anticipating that return. I know I should've expected it here as well since it is shonen, but I never thought there would be training in One Piece. I don't know why... Characters seemed to have went so far without any sort of training, so I figured they'd learn everything on the fly lol. And even then, most shonen's do training for either a rescue or some tournament, so yeah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I'm going to miss One Piece for a whole month.... well it isn't guaranteed that it will be a 2 year skip... I'd actually like to see the training of each member of the strawhat crew... They were lucky to have made it this far without any real training... I lost count of how many times i thought Ussop should have died.... Anyway it was foreshadowed quite a bit but idk right now it just fits in the storyline well. It also makes me curious what each member is going to learn. Nami is going to learn about navigation and weather Luffy is learning to control Haki. Copper is researching new medicines and I have a feeling will invent a new rumble ball Zoro is being trained by Hawkeye.. Ussop is getting stronger and going to hone his sniper skills. (maybe with something other than his slingshot) Sanji is learning the 99 recipes from New Kama Kempo and fighting his way to get them. Franky is researching the most brillant plans for battleships and personal weapons ever created.. Brook is singing to a bunch of people (idk what his training will improve) Robin is heading to meet with Dragon... (also don't know what she'll learn from him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jomz Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 So there will be a time skip. (guess I lost my bet that there might not be one. ) At least it ain't a five or ten year time skip. So the series will be taking a break, huh? Oh, well... That's not too bad, but still makes me feel a bit down on the matter. In any case, I am also excited to know what the "powered-up" crew will look like. this is going to be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spectacular Professor Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 (edited) [font="Comic Sans MS"]I'm more interested in the results of Sanji's training, personally. "Alright, you want to get these recipes and keep your butch image? Here's what we're going to do. There's 99 of these things all over the island, each jealously guarded by a flamboyant crossdresser. You have to steal each one from them while simultaneously avoiding the several thousand other residents who are waiting to spring out of the bushes and turn you into a transvestite. You have two years." There's no way anything that comes from this will not be amazing.[/font] Edited August 27, 2010 by NeedMoarRope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotlung Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 If there is a 2 year time skip i definatly believe Oda will have flashbacks to everyone's training. Each of them will suddenly be able to do things that they weren't able to before and they kind have to show where they learned how to do it. Also Jimbi mentioned about meeting Luffy and company at FIshman Island after they reunite. Foreshadowing him to become a crewmate??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magus Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 4 weeks but there's been talk that Oda's already gotten back to work.... "shrugs" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotlung Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 I see them getting a new crewmate from fishman island though.... it may or may not be Jimbei but I just have a feeling. Honestly though the whole world of One Piece is in a rebuilding stage. The marines r rebuilding their HQ, most of the pirates r either rebuilding crews and the strawhats r training... I'd imagain the time off was all for recreation.... Oda is going to change everything we know about our beloved crew.... they will still have personality quirks but each one will have a differant build, mindset and ablities. I wonder if any of Mihawk"s fashion sense wears off on Zoro? or Nami is suddenly sporting a robe and slippers like the other weatheria grandpa's? I'm still trying to imagin Ussop as a buff kick ass sniper.... There r so many possiblities that Oda could use and go with it blows my mind..... I can't wait....

Magus Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) Nope, all I can really suggest is count 4 weeks from when Oda took his break.. I don't remember.. I think this is the 2nd week. The wait hasn't really bothered me since I've been looking for new stuff.

rotlung Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 in another forum that I go to a guy said that October 3rd is when it is to be released. However we internet people in the US usually get a leaked copy a little before that he estimated that leaked copy will be available to us september 23. idk if those dates are right but that is the info I've heard and thought I'd pass it along Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magus Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 One Piece comes back with force. I didn't get what I was hoping for but I was still impressed and am quite anxious to see how everyone will reunite. Usopp had quite an entrance.

The Spectacular Professor Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 [font="Comic Sans MS"]Slap some triangular shades on Usopp, he's earned it. He has achieved the absolute peak of Badass Normal. If the Usopp of today fought the Luffy of Water 7, he would indeed be Captain now. Best entrance was Sanji's. After two years of a ladykiller being surrounded by transvestites, I can't blame him for immediately reverting back to his skirt-chasing shenanigans. I noticed he's parting his hair on the other side now in addition to the filled-in goatee, so I guess he really did have an eye under there. That's gonna be a hard sell for pity-lovemaking, though. poor guy can't just go up to women and tell them he's been stuck on an island without a female in sight for two years. It just sounds made-up.[/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotlung Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Ussopp is back and bad ass indeed. I also love how Nami grew her hair out. It gives her more womanly charm Sanji has definatly grown out of the childish good looks and actaully look like a man. (the goatee is a nice touch) Chopper is as dumb as ever..... Robin seems to be running and evading someone... nothing too new there... Luffy ah... yes Luffy is offically the most bad ass person ever and the huge scar he has on his chest is interesting. Plus his new attitude made me just smile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
