Zoro and Nami's cover stories are the ones Im interested too. And with my luck... they are probably going to be the last.Originally Posted by Augury
Nice find there Assertn. Arlong clearly didn't leave Jimbei on bad terms, so it could be a potential future Jimbei vs Luffy fight, even if his Shichibukai title is revoked. Although I still think Hatchan will stop this fight.
JImbei said that he looks up to whitebeard, whitebeard said he'd never forgive anyone who hurts a member of his team (no matter how stupid or deserving it was), so Jimbei is going to try and avenge Arlong, until he learns that Arlong was slaving the humans like the humans once slaved the fishmen until whitebeard came.
so it cancels it out.
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.
Thank you! At least someone has some sense to say something reasonable.
Jimbei = one of the most honorable character in the series
Arlong = ex sunny pirate douche who slaved humans and was a by product of Jimbeis revenge tied in with Luffy
In fact Jimbei is soo honorable that once he finds out, he'll probably say Wtf and just take him down all together, and very very easily. It's pretty obvious.
Another thing is, you people seem to think Oda is the master of foreshadowing when he isn't. Everyone is reading waaay too much between the lines of this whole thing.

This is stupid. One piece has been running for almost 12 years now with no plot discontinuity and no worthless sideline characters. Even the second arc villain introduced in the series has managed to regain the limelight in the current arc. Oda has definitely put some thought into the story, and none of the plot points feel superfluous or improvised in any way.
We knew about mermaids, merman island, and Jimbei since way back in the Arlong arc. We knew about the balance of the 3 powers since around that time as well. We knew a musician would join the crew since Zoro's arc. We've even seen Rayleigh in a Buggy flashback during the second arc. Ace's fate has been planned by Oda since his first introduction.
What a baseless accusation you have here.

Assertn why do you even bother explaining this to The Chancellor...just let him have his own shitty opinions, it's not worth the effort.
Honestly, I have to say that every time Oda does things like making connections with things that are years old to recent events in the manga, they do in fact always feel like they were planned to be that way. They just fit in too perfectly! This guy is seriously nothing short of a genius at story telling. I've had my doubts before, but this arc, being the best so far in my opinion, squashes any doubt I ever had.
It's the way he goes about revealing information to the readers AND his very own characters. Revealing Buggy's connections in this fashion was not what I expected and it just shows that he's always thinking outside the box and how to wow the reader, but having it all make sense within the context of this story.
I've never kissed so much ass in my life, but Oda really is a genius worth rim-jobbing....
I'm praying for an upgrade, in both power and looks
Just get rid of that weird chin, please!
If anything changed about his face, it would be a third cleft on his chin.

So, the panties are cool?
They're... the lesser of 3 evils ( the second being the nose )
Here's something interesting I just found...

Buggy encountered Whitebeard first-hand...
I'm curious to see if there will be more of a follow up to this.

Whitebeard does remember him, so who knows

God they butchered Doflamingos and Kumas name in that chapter. They've really changed things.
