    The cover must have a very interesting story... can't wait to see it on the anime (if the rumors are true). I wonder what will happen to Sanji from now on...

    And what the hell? Just what is BlackBeard's purpose? Magellan himself?

    PS: For 3rd week in a row I readed this chapter in spanish hours before an english release. Lol.

    Also, Luffy able to listen to rationale? Really? I seriously thought him and Blackbeard were going to spend at least 10 chapters duking it out.

    I knew they weren't going to seriously fight. It would be a terribly inconvenient time to start such a serious match. Plus, as I said before, BB only wanted Luffy cause he wanted schichibukai status, and this chapter confirmed it. I did forget, though, that BB had no intention of fighting Ace initially. This means that the war itself wasn't part of BB's plan.

    That being said, I really have no idea what BB intends to do here...

    My guess would be he's gonna free someone in the confusion

    He did say that all the chaos would help his plan after all

    That was my first assumption but I wonder how that's gonna work out for Robin and Zoro, who seem to have been sent to such strange locations

    That "credit" would probably cost him his shibukai title he worked so hard for

    He did ignore the shichibukai summons and just waltz into Impel Down so how concerned about his title is he really?

    The question is whether Blackbeard has longterm plans for his title or whether he just needed it to put himself in a position to do whatever he is about to do next. I think its the latter.

    I am sure there are already questionmarks about his loyalty with the World Government. If i were the WG, I wouldn't trust him with too much freedom as a Shichibukai.

    But before anything, he better do a damn good job of covering his tracks in Impel Down because I doubt the WG would be willing to let his current actions slide. Picking an oppurtunistic time to enter into the mayhem generated by Luffy and Co. is a start.

    He will probably claim he was trying to stop Luffy and the whole thing was just a huge misunderstanding

    Then he'll probably get out of it with a slap on the wrists

    Crocodile has confirmed his spot as one of my favorite One Piece characters...

    Did anyone else notice what Magellan was doing behind Luffy in the WSJ cover? Sanji looks happy as an okama. Maybe he is learning okama kempo.

    If there is a cover adventure for each strawhat, I have a feeling Luffy will be on his own in the main story for quite a while.

    maybe Blackbeard is here to recruit the evil sword sub-commander of prison? he'll gain a worthy swordsman (he lacks a guy to fight against Zoro, as was mentioned in the anime discussion)

    my hunch is that he wants to put on a mirror show to ace's execution, he's planning to kill a highranking marine in the same time. I can't figure out a reason to do so, but that's my gutt feeling.

    sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    Interesting you'd say that, Carnage....

    I'm not sure if I would say that's necessarily so, since Chopper's monster form goes in a blind rage, and he ultimately kills himself, but it would make sense for Chopper to awaken during his mini arc. I had already suspected that all the strawhats would get a power upgrade during their mini arcs, since Nami landed on a weather island and Franky landed on a futuristic technology island.

    And since Chopper ate the "Human Human Fruit" then his awakening should make him more human-like shouldn't it?

    But damn that chapter was slick. So Blackbeard knows about Haki as well. Not that I'm surprised, but I was surprised to hear him speak of it at this point.

    Dammit these chapters don't come out fast enough!

    It's possible that the haki was a mistranslation, and that Blackbeard was actually talking about Luffy's ambition or something.... which is practically what haki means anyway.

    It's kinda weird...but it didn't look like Luffy did anything haki-based against BB.

    Blackbeard had a look of fear in his eyes just before before and after being punched by Luffy. Didn't see anything like that on him during his fight with Ace. My guess is Luffy had some Haki behind that punch. Then again, Blackbeard could just be shocked that Luffy would dare punch a pirate of his level.

    I am very curious about the big event that Blackbeard is planning. Will he take credit for the fall of Impel Down by bringing down Magellan? Somehow, I doubt that is the extent of it.

    I highly doubt that that was the case. Remember Blackbeard already knows Luffy punched a Tenryubito. So I'm confident that Blackbead knows Luffy would punch anyone regardless of status or level.

    @Archangel

    But he wasn't under ordered to do anything of the sort. Its should be alright for Shichibukai to act indepedently in other situations but in this case he is directly interfering with WG affairs.

    Not to mention he is awol and the other Shichibukai could have probably used his help in the fight against Whitebeard.

    The WG would have to be pretty dumb to trust a guy like that. His Shichibukai freedoms won't last long until he does something else to renew their trust.
