    This episode is made of 100% win.

    Wax Robot Luffy. Hilarious.

    Mr. 3 getting some props, cool.

    Jinbei in the water, with Water Kamehameha, pure awesomeness.

    Crocodile and Mr. 1 looking all "we're gonna rape a boat full of marines", so pimp.



    I did have one thought though while watching this episode. A bunch of the guards have been armed with guns that shoot Sea Stone nets. Didn't it occur to anyone to pick up one of these guns and use it on Magellan?

    Definitely a dope episode. Jimbei shows why he's a schichibukai. Buggy looks like a chump next to Crocodile and Mr. 1. Mr. 3's ability was hinted at during an earlier filler clip with him and Buggy and the poison wall, but its nice to see him finally prove himself with his ability.

    The bullets passing through Magellan was BS, though. If those couldn't phase him, then how come Luffy's punches did during their first fight? Is Magellan supposed to be weak to rubber the same way Enel was? Stupid filler snippet that contradicts the limits of Magellan's power.

    Bullets passed through him? I thought they were just doing nothing or bouncing off, due to his bulk or something.

    They've already pretty much confirmed at this point that Luffy's punches use Ambition. Or at least, that's what Blackbeard said when Luffy hit him. And since we know Ambition can hit Logia users it makes sense that Luffy can punch Magellan.

    Except for Smoker and Crocodile? Or are we to believe things have changed since then?

    ...Magellan isn't a logia.

    That was many arcs ago, so yes, I'm assuming it has changed since they've introduced Ambition. Blackbeard even said his Ambition has gotten stronger, which means it wasn't the last time they met.

    Since when? His body turns completely to poison. Since when can non-Logia's do that?

    And even if he wasn't, Ambition is basically spirit energy. No matter what reason a person isn't solid, if they have a spirit, than an Ambition punch should hurt them.

    The thing with the bullets bugged me too. The only explanation that makes sense is that the bullets are melting the instant they touch the poison.

    Luffy should still be able to fight better against Magellan. After all, when you want to handle potent chemicals, you wear rubber gloves. It seems to me like Magellan is getting a lot more out of his paramecia than Luffy, who should possess a natural resistance to poisons.

    His poison is strong enough to melt rocks...

    I don't think they have shown his body turning into poison. I used to think the hydra indicated such but looking carefully at those scenes, they just cover his hands, not are his hands. Besides, he had some blood trickling down his face after one of the major attacks.

    But above all if he was logia, he wouldn't really have this much trouble with the escaping prisoners.
