@Infernoman And my bad bro! I missed your message. These last 2 chapters have been !

This gets even crazier, the time compression he did in order to gnaw a tree into a baseball bat, paint it, get a baseball helmet from hammerspace and return all the venom droplets in one swing is pretty much reality warping. Luffy seems to be getting more used to his Toon Force capabilities and becoming more free. With the Gorosei, their immortality I figured is due to the Ope Ope no Mi immortality surgery performed on them throughout the ages, but the way they regenerate doesn't seem to be organic but transcends biology. They're literally reconstituting limbs from thin air. It makes me feel that their existence or abilities are born from Imu itself and not traditional mythical Zoan abilities. It also makes me wonder how ridiculously OP Imu is. Another thing I noticed is Jinbei's reaction to their haki, all of them are crackling with conquerors haki in general and their speech bubbles seem inhuman. Makes me think that their human forms are almost to suppress their bestial forms, which is something I theorized Kaido to have earlier. Nusjuro's speedy half-transformation made me think this could be true, but who knows? (I really hope to see Nusjuro vs Zoro in the future!) BTW, if anyone is keeping a tally— Lucci is currently 0-3 vs the Strawhats. It's a pity Zoro couldn't finish the job.

It's crazy that I forgot about the giants halfway through this chapter!

THE PLOT THICKENS! https://tcb-scans.com/chapters/7660/one-piece-chapter-1107

New Chapter is Out! https://tcb-scans.com/chapters/7594/one-piece-chapter-1104?date=18-1-2024-16 KAMI!!!!

One Piece has had its share of irredeemable d-bags but Saturn just managed to earn his face on Mt.Shitmore. But now the reason why Akainu the merciless let Bonney go and why JayGarcia wasn't that eager to kill her initially. As for Kuma, his legendary status is secured regardless of what happens henceforth. I know he doesn't have the strength left to win vs Saturd but I hope he makes him bleed. One thing that interests me is if a portion of Bartholomew's memories were returned back to him, or it's just that his Haki as a father has drove him to save his daughter unconsciously, similar to how even an unconscious Luffy was projecting his wrath at Kaido and knocking his subordinates out with Haohshoku Haki? Although Kizaru is the most logical culprit to be the one helping Luffy, I think it's more likely that he chose not to interfere when witness the person who helped. An overlooked point that was dropped is the fact that the original Devil Fruit was used to transfer its abilities to Bonney is now inactive, hinting that the recyclability of the DF is gone for good. This might be game changing, because unlike Vegapunk who transferred the essence of living users of currently active DF users, this is almost creating a one-off transfer which could lead to the fruit's extinction. This might've been the Gorosei's goal in ending "Dreams" or anything that can challenge their power. Which leads me to my final point. I was thinking that St. Saturd's ability to freeze his opponents in place was due to some inherent but advanced DF technique, but maybe this is a form of ancient science that he knew before the Void Century? The whole sapphire scale phenomenon is likely more than a disease but a side effect of some kind, one caused by manipulating the Lineage Factor or the like?

A normal paced One Piece without rushed/ reused animation would be a dream come true. If there is a multiverse there's a generation of fans who grew up watching One Piece animated by UFOtable.

A cool idea, but then if it was Vegaounk's gene manipulation it wouldn't explain how she can use moves like "Oil Shock" which can age objects to the point of corrosion and her "Distorted Future" attack gave Luffy his "bad future" appearance we saw in the SBS as opposed to his good future. Showing more of a time manipulation than it being a gene therapy thing. Not saying you can't be right down the line and Vegapunk made some tweaks, but I think the evidence more points to her imagination than anything.

Please Oda staaaawwwp, this is too painful... I hope we have one more chapter before the year's through, don't forsake us KAMI!!!

Even his wise actions leads to suffering, truly a saint...

I didn't think it was possible but Oda has finally made a villain I hate more than Akainu... Something I've been pondering regarding St. Jaygarcia Saturn and the other Gorosei...

Latent Lunarian genes activate! But don't forget about the...

What a chapter indeed! Also I need to catch up on my Japanese mythology... We eatin' good this week boys!

Aw dang... No break next week, thank you kami!!!

As soon as ... Now on to more Lore Piece that I wanted to get to weeks ago— The fact that even emotions like love (e.g., S-Snake crushing on Luffy) can carry through the Lineage Factor hearkens back to earlier when Lilith was complaining that the Cyber-seakings still retained their bestial instincts despite being controlled, their intrinsic nature remains strong. Judge Vinsmoke also sought to eliminate the humanity out of his brood's Lineage Factor with Sanji's being his "failure" This hints that it's possible that The Will of D is something that can carry through indirect family lines, even though the original concept of that will has been lost to history. Essentially meaning as long as the desire for freedom exists in these individuals, The Will of D will never cease to be.
