End of Chapter.No SBS Tonight.Tomorrow: Rocks vs. Harald
>>286502274Look at that elder on the far left with the fu manchu. Was he Ju Peter's predecessor?
>>286502093Why does he want to kiss the ass of the WG so much when he sees the shit they pull on a regular basis?
>>286501947>>286501973I see now why the Rocks pirates were a bunch of scumbags. No teamwork at all, they hated eachothers guts.
>>286502337>>286502337He made the same mistake as vegapunk.He saw the "face" of justice, the navy, and assumed he could bargain and reason with the system behind them.What he didn't understand was that the "face" existed to keep people mollified and compliant.
>>286502274Damn we are getting so close to the end... Your almost free OP from OP

>>286502444Kaido and WB had no problems with each other
>>286502016Jesus Christ, did they even sleep? That's alot for two years
>>286502496Seems that way. He was dealing with Cipher Pol, which is the real face of the WG, so it should have been a red flag there. The hit piece article also doesn't help matters either.>>286502576Yeah and it doesn't add up when you see how they acted during and after that incident. He would be better off just doing what he was doing already with helping others without the need to bend the knee to the WG.
>>286503020Bartholomew Roberts I believe took around 400 ships in his three year career as a pirate. So they were working on a similar schedule.
>>286502093Rocks is a mad man but he is right. No way you should kiss ass for the wold government

>>286502274Thank you OP.
>>286502016The narrator forgot to mention the 37 counts of rape and the 1 moving violation.
>>286501880I hate nu-piece but that cover is fucking nice
>>286502193Creepy Katakuri.>>286502274Thanks, OP.
Wait, so...Is barbel the previous owner of the mera mera fruit, and that's why he only has hair in some scenes or did he just have weird flame hair and shaved it sometimes
>>286502093>John GiantUnintentionally hilarious name.
>>286502072This should have been Haralds 'fuck you, i'll make my own world government...with blackjack and hookers' moment.
>>286501921I fucking love yamato
>>286502193Statistically speaking, Linlin is almost certainly pregnant in this scene, even though she's drinking.Specifically, she'd be pregnant with Charlotte Noisette.
>>286504873rocks d xebec jaywalking incident
>>286502274What the fuck... Whitebeard is straight?
>>286501921Ulti... No...
>>286501921snowdo the unmeltable
>>286501921Ulti misses her daddy
>>286502337he's the same type of guy as Luffy or Rocks or Harp. Once he gets something in his head he'll pursue it to the end and won't let anything stop him not even reason and logic.He wanted to prove to the world that elbaf is not a violent country anymore by joining the world government.It would have worked too if the WG wasn't lead by literal demons

>>286502072Fucking Morgans
>>286502093>John GiantNo way that's his real name, right? Gotta be like when a Chinese guy moves to the US and goes by Jimmy Smith.>Hajrudin and Loki next to each otherAw.
>>286502193Looking at that teeny Katakuri, it's no wonder Linlin is pregnant all the time. She probably just drops them while barely noticing, like kangaroos.
>>286512992John Giant was introduced back in Marineford
>>286508099Always has been.
>>286512940I'd be thinking things like>wait do I really want to do a quake when I'm potentially below the water table in this underground cellar
>>286502274I like how just as the manliest characters have feats of super strength and guts, Shakky who is a physically powerful character in her own right, has mythical level beauty that almost seems supernatural. She has beauty feats. The problem with beautyscaling is that, of course, to the reader, Nami is far more attractive.
>>286501947Rocks did nothing wrong.

>>286518724i'm gonna vote for rocks tomorrow.
>>286504873It's okay, he's got an angle
>>286508099Nobody's THAT gay
>>286502093What exactly does the world government brings to the table that he can't get on his own? is clear that he will lose allies either way, he should pay attention and see that if he joins them he will be the one holding the gun and slandering anyone that oppose him
>>286520604another anon said earlier that he, like many kings/queens in one piece, did not truly comprehend the political corruption
>>286502139I love how the are introduced with important titles and garp gets>some dude future grandpa
Chapter 1158: Rocks vs. Harald
>>286502193Why didn't newgate try to tap Stussy at least once? he said that always wanted a family, then why did he ignore a woman with fertile womb asking him to fuck her?In regards with big mom it makes more sense that her kid are really tiny as newborns so they are barely a problem, she is really just shitting out kids, it wouldn't surprise if she flushed 1 down the toilet by accident and became some sort of sewerman. It also makes lola more funny since she was the biggest kid she got as a baby but Lola never grew, she is as tall as she was a baby
>>286521354he knows about the hoes
>>286521395HOLY FUCKING ENTER

>>286521584thanks op.
>>286521537rocks was right all along lol
>>286521445>>286521465>>286521494Look at these pirate boomers just enjoying themselves, blissfully ignorant of the scary truth of the world. Good times...
>>286521556didn't they say that they don't get newspapers in Elbaph? and where did he get a giant-sized one anyway?
>>286521308Eh?
>>286521994The owl.
>>286521584DUN DUN DUUUUUUUH-NThanks OP
>>286522054
>>286521330will we ever know what that spotted egg is?
>>286522054>>286522370Also>the mangaka created you said your backstory is not important at all
>>286522480a greentext that can be used for the whole straw hat crew save luffy.
>>286521402guess the message oda was going here was that the more you thirst for someone the further they retreat
>>286502016What is article 18?
>>286507864>>286512992His name written in English is the series, it' John Giant literally while the Giant race are called "Kyojin." meaning "Big people."
>>286502168I really like pirate island.
>>286502072Harald should have woken the fuck up at this point.
>>286502093>giving the WG giant soldiers instead leveraging them in exchange for joining the WGHarald was simply not cut out for politics.
>>286502274So did the older Big Mom kids get to look at Shakky too?

>>286521374>I'm hungry, Marx! Feed me!Uh, that's historically not been very effective Roger
>>286521395ENTER the saddest jobber in One Piece
>>286521428>>286521445Shakky being an actual scammer is oddly endearing. As is WB's cluelessness.
>>286521465WB wasn't always a fightfag regarding Roger, huh? He was content to play the stoic straight man under Rocks. Wait, he's the Rayleigh/Zoro here.
>>286521522>>286521537>>286521556>clashing evenly with the building-sized sword + ACoCRocks was a beast, damn
>>286521584Shamrock even looks mildly eviler
I really like Harald's story. It's like Oden's but done right.
>>286512992It's even weirder when you think about how names in One Piece work.>it's the Edward family, not the Newgate familyImagine if Jinbe had a son named "Fishman"
>>286502274/a/ and twitter were melting down over this pageThey thought Rocks and Whitebeard being attracted to a woman was character assassination
>>286527320more like all migrants from twitter. it will continue to be a mystery how a website like that outputs such stupid people
>>286521584Thanks OP
>>286521584Thanks, OP.
>>286521584thx op
>>286526394Agreed. He looks like Sanji here.

>>286521428>>286521445>>286526440You know what's even better?It's called rip-off bar. it's just straight up said it to your face that it's a huge scam and these fucker don't even care.
M
P
>>286523774I can't believe it. I can't believe this number.
>>286521308WaitWaitWaitMoria was a kozuki?He wasn't just a pirate trying to take a big dog down he was a patriot defending his home? And Oden didn't help he just danced?
>>286539980Correct.
>>286539980Yes. Oda wanted to show that in the flashbacks but he just didn't have time you see.
>>286539980>And Oden didn't help he just danced?He knew Moria's weak ass wouldn't do shit even against Jack, so he just let him job
>>286540764Maybe if his cousin helped him out he wouldn't have jobbed so hard
>>286540754But he had time for more run piece and the ice mummy stuff? He had time for Luffy to job against kaido 10 times before finally winning? Big meme showing up in wano instead of elbaf which would be more fitting?
>>286540898Yes, Oda couldn't spare a single chapter for the backstory of a beloved character, those ninjas and the ice mummies and the yakuza and the numbers and the gifters were more important.And really, if he did it would just make Oden look even worse, if such a thing is possible.
>>286539980you will love oden. you will love oden. you will love oden.
>>286539980
>>286539980>>286542550The only way this makes sense is if Moria's return and engagement with Kaido happened in an extremely short period of time, like a few hours, and Oden didn't find out until it was over. Even Oden wouldn't be retarded enough to stay away if he knew an active rebellion against Kaido was happening.

>>286545241>>286545265Fuck Harald

>>286545241
>>286545265
>>286545294
>>286545018>>286545043I assumed with the Bonney situation that the children of a celestial dragon and a commoner are just considered commoners, but Shanks and Shamrock are considered celestial dragons despite their mom being a commoner?
>>286546397I think Oda realized how inconvenient it was for anyone other than the Straw Hats to only be able to navigate the Grand Line in a straight line and quietly retconned that.
>>286547069Maybe Bonney IS (legally) a celestial dragon and that's why she made it out this far and came safe from her encounter with Akainu. These are HK's sons tho. I don't think that Charloss' descendants would be treated the same as the ones from a top dog like Garling. Maybe as they're half commoneers is up to the CD's to decide, much like ancient times
>>286546397I forget, were Eternal Poses something only the Navy can make?Feels like those should be something a bunch of capable engineers could make, and then you "lock" it in on a specific island.
>>286547236I guess the Marine has a stockpile of Eternals, and Yonkos have a way to get them too, how else are they supposed to defend their territory otherwise?and it's probably not that hard to make an eternal pose, it's just that poses in general have almost disappeared from the story and except the Straw Hats, everybody else can just go wherever they want offscreen

>>286545265Wait the celestial dragons commit genocide games? And garp knows about it? What kind of spineless bootlicker is he
>>286548094>And garp knows about it?Keep reading.
>>286547409Stop it, anon. Just stop. While we still can. Please...
>>286548723I mean this is taking place where he and Roger took down rocks to defend the slavers genociding an island. And he stayed in the Marines for some reason I'm assuming dragon is gonna rebel here and then do nothing for 30 years besides fucking crocodile
>>286547409So do we just start over again when it ends...?
>>286550725If you’re volunteering to be op anonny. I’m sure I for one will still be on this website in 2030
>>286526440Can you really call it a scam when she announces it on her billboard?
>>286521445I really like this pirating for pirating sake, no bullshit politics, or bullshit powers, just drunk sea dogs fighting each other.
>>286539497soon enough will be in single digits
>>286543726>Even Oden wouldn't be retarded enoughYes, he would be anon, there is no limit on how retarded a One piece character can get to let the plot happen
>>286545178Oda really wrote himself into a corner here with Garp, there is no way that he doesn't know that his son is here, he knew that the celestial Dragons were there for enjoyment, he knew how bad they were, the fucking news is telling everyone what kind of game they are going to play(look at NewGate Face >>286545166) and yet only until Roger the love of his life showed he decided to go there
Catching up to One Piece for the first time. I had the East Blue arc volumes as a kid but never got to the Grand Line. Really enjoyed Alabasta, which I just finished.
>>286553452It's not in the news, they got tipped by morgans. They hold leaflets, not newspapers.Morgans even says he'll leak shit to hachinosu. But that's not clear enough I guess.
>>286545241>>286545265HARALD KNOWS ABOUT THE GAMES? WHY THE FUCK IS LICKING THEIR ASSHOLES SO HARD THEN? BEFORE YOU SAY THAT HE DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THE DETAILS, HE CLEARLY CAN PUT 2 AND 2 TOGETHER ABOUT SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENING THERE IF HE THINKS THAT IS GOING TO LURE ROCKSHOLY FUCKING SHIT, CAN HE GET MORE STUPID
>>286553452>there is no way that he doesn't know that his son is hereWhy?>the fucking news is telling everyone what kind of game they are going to playRead slower
>>286553452>>286553520>>286553545Whitebeard even says that he thought that it was just a rumour.>>286545325Thanks, OP.>>286546972I didn't catch that at first.
>>286544948munchti, munchmato, and page one
>>286501947>>286501973>>286501988I’d read a hundred volumes of Rocks crew shenanigans.
>>286521308I fucking love yamato
>>286544948I love watching this bitch eat
>>286521894I think the manga is yet to drop the other shoe. Rocks is set up to look cool, but I doubt he would have made for a benevolent ruler in the long run, just the beginning of another line of tyrants.
>>286546397Maybe once you're Yonko-tier you can just sail outside of grandline until you're in the general vicinity of an island inside grandline and then simply cross the calm belt by pure strengthOr maybe they learned from the Giants and used the stars to navigate instead of relying on a compass
>>286555265I don't know why you would say thatThe only time we actually saw one of his raids was towards a corrupt church.Pirate Island, which is under his control, seems to be doing just fineHe has honor towards friends, and gains allies by winning them in a fair contest.Plus you can't out-evil genocide tournaments.On top of all of that, at the end of the day he is just a single mortal man, instead of an immortal god-like being that ruled for 8 centuries. Meaning if worst comes to worst, people could overthrow him
>>286555384>The only time we actually saw one of his raids was towards a corrupt church.Previous chapter clearly said he's sunk a ton of ships, burnt down towns and has at least one kingdom under his belt. I find it hard to believe these were all benevolent escapades.>He has honor towards friends, and gains allies by winning them in a fair contest.I don't think davy back fights have ever been portrayed as honorable in any way, just ways to quickly aquire a crew against their will. He is also never shown to give much of a shit about his crewmates as friends, just mutual beneficiaries with a common goal - hell he straight up says that when first introduced. I can believe he can run a pirate island, but I will never fully trust the ambitions of somebody who wants to be the king of the world.
>>286555512>Previous chapter clearly said he's sunk a ton of ships, burnt down towns and has at least one kingdom under his belt. I find it hard to believe these were all benevolent escapades.which is why I said the only time we saw it onscreen was a "good" cause. And before we were told he was the most evil guy in history, and yet we know that is not the case. Meaning, you have been subjected to propaganda. I wonder how many ships the Strawhats were told to have sunk in official records.>I don't think davy back fights have ever been portrayed as honorable in any wayIt's the opposite, it's one of the most honorable ways for pirates to duel even though Pirates usually don't follow rules. Remember, the captain of both crews have to agree to the contest. If a crewmember gets send to another ship, they have no one to blame but their previous captain.>just mutual beneficiaries with a common goalexactly, which is a GOOD thingLook, just in case it isn't clear, NO ONE said he would be the best person to rule the world. But just that he would be better than the shit show that currently rules the world.
>>286547347Baroque Works also had access to Eternal Poses

>>286540898Don't think BM in Elbaf would've made sense, Egghead and Elbaf are built around being a post-OG Emperor world
>>286542550>>286543726By the way this is framed, I assume everyone saw it as "a scuffle between rival pirate crews" and not "Moria heroically defending his adopted homeland from the tyrant".
>>286557277The people of Wano know why he was there, they gave him a hero's grave.
>>286543726>Oden wouldn't be retarded enoughYes, yes he would have been. And he was.
>>286556526
Bump it
waiting for the chapter
>>286545043>>286545070I appreciate that this flashback showed the usual "the Navy are broadly good, it's the WG that are evil" line to rest. As a certain someone later says, they're rotten to the core, a pack of dogs meant onky to shield the inhuman sociopaths at the top from any consequences for their actions.
>>286545149Morgans is so based. A random kid who maneuvered himself into one of the most influential people in the world with a virtual monopoly on propaganda with nothing but his brains and balls.

>>286545294Fuck me I love this arc. Almost every big mover and shaker in the current world of OP, converging on one spot. Goda.
>>286553485Keep us posted anon, always fun to get someone cathcing up
>>286547069I suppose the difference is that Garling chose to take them in, while Bonney's dad decided to toss her out. They can do whatever they want, especially with bastard children.
>>286556392>it even spells JEW backwardsGoda...
>>286547069Race is just something made up to keep the non-havers fighting each other. You’re either in or you’re out.

>>286567646Thanks, OP.
>>286521465What made Shakky like Rayleigh so much? Maybe she just liked him I guess and no big explanation?
>>286571440He was the only one who didn't melt like a snowball in Hell at the sight of her.
>>286571440I mean, have you seen him shirtless?
>>286571440Likely cause she could have any man in the world off looks alone, except Rayleigh. He doesn't swoon immediately upon seeing her.Want what you can't have, if that makes sense.
>>286571440Woman want guys that dont like them. Or don’t “need” rather.
>>286571440>woman who turns every man into a drooling retard meets man who can actually hold a normal conversation with herMakes sense
>>286571440She's so beautiful that every man makes heart eyes and drools at the sight of her. And because she's from Amazon Lily, she likely never interacted with a man until she was already an adult.There's a real chance that Rayleigh is literally the only man Shakky has met in her entire life who acts like a normal person around her. Which, from her perspective, makes him the smoothest man alive.
>>286567467MY FUCKING HEROES!
>>286567646Slavelusted Garp, number one in verse.
>>286571440hey everyone, this anon is a virgin
What frustrates me about this flashback is Rocks is cooler and acts more like a Pirate King after not even existing for 1000 chapters than Roger has been in the entirety of that 1000 chapters.
>>286568570I don't want this daily to end!
>>286575480There's a few One Piece spin-offs
>>286547069I don't think the CDs have ever been shown to believe in racial purity or anything like that. In fact the York situation last arc (and possibly Gunko this arc) showed that it's possible to "convert" so to speak.
>>286567646guys guys, you all got it wrongit's not>I have to protect these celestial dragons so they can continue to genocide islandsit's actually:>I have to protect the marine that protect the celestial dragons so they can continue to genocide islands
>>286567646I WILL NEVER LET YOU FREE THE SLAVES ROCKS
>>286567259teach looks literally retarded
>>286567446was that a tranquilizer round?
>>286567565antirogerbros... I thought he was fighting to keep the slaves enslaved??
I wonder if at some point Oda visited west bank for references.
>>286575480Crazy how the years went by, i was going to follow out of curiosity and this ended up being my first One Piece read, i hope OP keeps doing the new chapters
>>286567646Thanks OP for the daily OP!
As someone who doesn't read or watch this, how does the storytelling even operate in One Piece at this point? Aren't there like a billion different characters at this point, how do even give everyone enough time to do stuff without a huge amount of bloat? Not hating but this is one of the biggest reasons I could only get into Jojo as far as battle shonen go since the characters just get replaced eventually
>>286580788Character focus is perhaps the biggest complaint about the series, but even so it's really not that bad. The world is islands after all, it's only natural that the vast majority of the cast aren't carried around.
>>286568280Thanks for sharing.
>>286580788tldr: don't overthink itOne Piece isn't a well realized fantasy world, Oda never gave 2 thoughts into how his magic/tech/politic actually works and the implications there of. It's on the opposite side of whatever autism spectrum Dungeon Meshi is on.Why/how does stuff works? It just does, rule of cool / convenience, next!The same goes for the characters, most of the time; why are these people teamed up?they just are, without necessarily a good reason why.Bloat, and a lack of payoff from said bloat, was a major reason why Wano sucked so bad.There's All-stars, Tobiroppo, Headliners, Gifters, Pleasures, Waiters, Numbers, Marys and that's just on Kaido's crew.Why are they here?Where did they come from?Why do they stick around, especially what motivates waiters when they know the odds?How does the logistics work?What do they eat?! Wano is currently cut of from the rest of the world and desolate from massive pollution from Kaido's factories to make weapons to wage a war that never makes sense because Kaido (in that arc) is a narrative black hole with no real backstory despite being hyped up for years at that point.Why does the story require, from a functional standpoint, so many characters?How many characters are enough to establish that Kaido is a bad guy?And the story can't even do that right because Kaido doesn't do much, there's a lack of a kick-the-dog moments because it's always his underlings that do the fucked up shit.Queen was a much better Villain than Kaido, and should have replaced him.Just don't think about stuff like that, or reread the entire arc multiple times, maybe answers were there between the breakneck editing or in an SBS.Whole Cake Island balanced the bloat better because it made sense.Why are they here; they're a family.Where did they come from; Big-Mom.Why do they stick around; Big-Mom won't let any to leave.What do they eat; look at any frame and guess!But how does a cake island work? Don't think about it.
>>286544978>Crimereally? in pirate island?
>>286526356He was just playing hard to get.
>>286584357everybody gotta have standards
>>286522370I didn't think the Oden flashback could get any more disappointing, but somehow it has. What the fuck?
>>286578953Yeah, it's what they were armed with and you can see the CD snoozing with his snot bubble.
>>286568548Not really, as we'll see later on I suppose. We still haven't really gotten the real reason why some races are considered outcast and hunted, but perhaps it's just the garden variety whims of racism.
>>286580788Most of the characters are associated to specific geographical areas, and by the nature of the world they end up left behind as the protagonists progress
>>286584109>What do they eat?! This is literally explained in the manga, though. Actually most of your complaints are (though many times I think the explanations are lacking).
>>286586771only so much to be said in just 2000 letter characters, and I'm a ramblerexplanations are vague and lackingthe conclusion to the original question is that the vast majority of the cast in OP are props for the straw hats to interact with, not characters for the reader to engage with
>>286554147There are a fun group
>>286554147for being a mega whore it's weird Linlin didn't let Kaido hit
>>286545149Was he born a bird?
>>286545166He looks like Arin Hanson.
>>286587249Yeah, we don't really disagree.
>>286587353shame she never did, shame IF he ever did going by W.C.I arc
>>286545225Whait do is David David Jones? Like Mario Mario?
>>286545294Sommers!
>>286567325Celestial dragons can't die fast enough.
So when you reach>current chapterDo you start again at 1?
>>286588922IjoinedthisdailyatenieslobbysoIskippedacoupleofarcs. hopefully
>>286587353How do you miss the MO of Linlin this bad? There was a whole arc about this. She doesn’t hit unless you pledge your kingdom to her. Kaido’s a broke little scrub to her. That MO continues shows even into this arc outside the flashback with Loki who Linlin tried to setup with her daughter Lola. Remember?

>>286591061
>>286591106
>>286591127
>>286591885Hate this page. Whitebeard's whole shtick since Marineford is that he doesn't run from anyone.Especially since Garp was at Marineford as well.

>>286591187
>>286591215
>>286591238
>>286592033>that he doesn't run from anyone.It's not explicitly said that he doesn't run away, just that nobody injured him while doing so also next chapter we see him still fighting in God Valley
>>286591750>and Boa to fall out of Luffy's pileCope harder retard
>>286591238they should rename them holy jobbers.>>286591263thanks op.
>>286590967>>286591061Shanks is only nice because he hit his head?
>>286592686He's a human baby, not a Saiyan.
>>286591263>Bad end Yamato never dropped the Oden delusion and eventually ACK's xirself
>>286591000This is such a crazy page when remember both Marineford and Wano. And you don't even have to be a powerscaler to see that.
>>286591238I mean, if he had chosen a different voice actor just for that Shamrock scene, it would have been clear it was not Shanks but his hermano
>>286591263Thank you OP.
Sweet only 14 plus some yet unreleased chapters left
>>286593369>unreleased chapters (plural)Time to change this, we only have time for a single more new chapter before we catch up.
>>286593369All of us!Next chapter, save us!Aaassu all of us!
>>286592889>>286591263
>>286590937Sometimes Oda does this and it makes it clear just how fucked the heights in OP are without adding in Giants. Like how are these both humans?
>>286590967Are we really doing the DBZ "evil baby hits their head and becomes good" thing?>>286591263Thanks, OP.
>>286592033He's not running FROM Garp, he and everyone else were ALREADY running to the center of the island to grab Shakky. He's just not stopping to fight Garp.
>>286590901>Maffey only got one of Garling's babies>she doesn't seem to be around in the current timeI think he might have killed her for not saving Shanks.
>>286591000Garp being the Zenigata or Rock's Lupin is hilarious.
>>286591127Bitch who taught you self respect?
>>286590967>>286591061I do wonder if Shanks hitting his head is gonna be a plot point or if Oda just thought it would be funny to draw him with a cartoon bump on his head.
>>286591238I love the looney tunes ass hole in the wall.
>>286596649Probably just a gag. Both babies are shown as equally cute and sweet so their differing personalities are only for their upbringing. Though I think Shamrock will be shown to be much better than Garling at least, even if that's pretty easy.
>>286596831I think Shamrock and Garling both love Shanks and were both happy to have him back.CD's are irredeemably evil, but they do at least clear the very low bar of loving their families.
>>286590937>The Tobi Natto gets casually eradicated at the mere sight of chadbeard
>>286592033It's a matter of "a cowards wound" which is not the motivation here at all.
>>286595403No, that would be a Dragon Ball thing. But yeah, probably.
>>286580788It's an adventure series, so the story mostly follows the protagonist and his group of comrades while most other characters stay in their original locations. Many of them do return though, as the world and status quo change significantly, and the further along we get the more time is given to non-core characters in order to keep all the pieces moving.
>>286584109>Queen was a much better Villain than Kaido, and should have replaced him.this alone is enough to disregard the rest if your post
>>286590876What the fuck is her deal
>>286590937WB really is massive, holy shit. I was driving today and came across an underpass that had 4.5m clearance, I thought as I passed it that even that huge margin only comes up to 3/4 of his height.
>>286591000One way to read this is that the Rocks Pirates aren't here to fight and don't have the time to get bogged down fighting Garp. Another is that three future Emperors (two of them nearly at their peak) ran from him with their tails tucked.
>>286591127This is pretty beastly from Shakky. Granted, she probably winked at them and clobbered them while they were picking their jaws off the floor, but still.
>>286591160Sommers' obsession being foreshadowed here.
>>286591215It's funny how THE Roger, future King of the Pirates, is just another contender here, and not even one of the most important ones.
>>286591238Swords in later OP being haki clubs is really getting ridiculous. How do you slash a dude and just knock him through a wall?
>>286591263HE BEAT THE RAT ALLEGATIONS
>>286590967I fucking hate how Oda handles damage this is the biggest example of ridiculous he characterizes it, Maffey got cut in half and random mooks were sent flying, bleed from the mouth or got white eyes and the people attacking them are top tiers, its such weird censor
>>286591061I really like the translation here, the wording use for babies could be genuinely confusing, was it the same on Japanese?
>>286590807I miss Carrot.
>>286590807Where's yamat- oh, top rightI FUCKING LOVE YAMATO
>>286597587Hey, the fact that his crew could sail the seas and stand up to Rocks without being quite that stacke its something.
>>286590876dragon tanked thathis first confirmed feat in over 1k chapters
>>286598361>>286590876couldn't tank those tits tho, god damn
>>286597587Another point to the WG assigning value and titles more related to the threat they pose to their power and influence rather than DBZ scouter power levels just directly relayed to us by god (Oda)
>>286598067>was it the same on Japanese?Kind of? Maffey uses "akanbou" which just means baby/infant, and the person on the other end of the line doesn't specify baby/babies at all. The slip-up is the same, since akanbou can be singular or plural if not explicitly pluralized.
>>286596649anon...the hit on the head was just to not have him cry so maffey doesn't find him
>>286598037It's a comic book for kids so you're only gonna cut people in half if they can tank it.
>>286588922Can my simple question get an actual answer please
>>286597512The former is the most straight-forward and intended way to take it as they literally say it explicitly there, and it fits the context with them being here with more urgent goals in mind. Though Garp here is likely already powerscaling above 3 out of 4 of them not named Newgate in a 1v1.
>>286502072this was Harald's last noble moment. ever since he became a baldcuck he's better off for the chipper
>>286602226Usually when storytimes reach the current chapter they just end. OP hasn't expressed any sign otherwise.
>>286590876>erisinteresting name
>>286590967>shanks got dropped on his head as a baby
>>286591160sommers is so based
>>286605127I see. Thank you for responding.
>>286605215he kinda looks like original Nika
>>286588922Yes because op who has said they hate this site now and are glad to be off when this is over, is going to start it all over again for 3 more years You idiot
one more bump
>>286598067Japanese doesn't use plurals as such so it's more ambiguous in the original, so that appears to be a bit of added flourish to paper over the misunderstanding
>>286602226OP has said before that once we catch up, it's adios for him. Anyone else is welcome to take up the mantle, but it seems one hell of a time commitment.

>>286611265well, he DID find Blackbeard on Lulusia after all
>>286611767It adds upon a reread. Not hugely but it’s cool seeing him at his pinnacle of power knowing he used to be a scrub second-fiddle and still not satisfied
>>286613417That’s the whole point though. The Marines aren’t “good guys,” they’re the PR arm of a rotten regime. Some of them buy into the justice meme, some of them just cling to the scraps of order in a shitty world. The dissonance is intentional.It’s why characters like Fujitora hit so hard-dude follows the rules while actively hating the system. Oda’s been hammering this since Enies Lobby and people still act surprised that the WG is cartoonishly evil.
