Oda basically confirmed Jinbe's survival and joining as the helmsmen by adding this in.
One Piece
So Jinbe is fighting Jesus then, since they are both Helmsmen
Going by this
Luffy vs Blackbeard (Captains)
Jinbe vs Jesus Burges (Helmsmen)
Zoro vs Shiliew (Swordsmen)
Nami vs Lafitte (Navigators)
Usop vs Van Augue (Marksmen)
Chopper vs Doc Q and Stronger (Doctors)
That leaves Sanji, Robin, Franky and Brook vs Vasco Shot, Catarina Devon, Avalo Pizarro and Sanjuan Wolf
Why the fuck is Oda dragging Luffy vs Katakuri? Something huge is obviously going to happen, does he need to drag it out this much?
it looks like Luffy's only chance is to awaken his devil fruit power. that or pull out gear 5.
Listen, kids, listen.. Katakuri's done.
Sanji vs Aokiji? Avalo Pizarro maybe if he's really ex-calamities/boss of the beast pirates.
Oda is a hack
I'd rather have pages wasted spent on characters explaining stuff.
I mean why waste an entire chapter on a fight, action is for shonenfag. I'd rather have a jumbled, mashed together mess.
This chapter isn't even bad desu, but I'm getting really tired with Oda's panel layout and exposition post-time skip.
Horihoshi was sick for a week so it messed up their opportunity to sync these calls for non-death. Oda stalled for a week. You'll see similar stalling on Horihoshi's series during Oda's break.
So why did Luffy plug his mouth up and make that goofy face? Did I miss something about Katakuri's power, or was that just random?
Whoops, wrong image.
387 - gear 2nd / 783 - gear 4th
388 - gear 3rd / 883 - awakening???
It's so no one(basically Katakuri) wouldn't find out his crew survived from his expression. Another interpretation could be that he doesn't want to worry his crew by screaming of pain and coming out as an underdog to them.
I support this theory
I thought Aokiji is just an ally to Blackbeard much like Law with Luffy
Deku is a nu-mc, a fucking natural born jobber bragging with limp muscles. HE CAN'T DO SHIT
Fucking 2k17, Kenshiro's laughing at this faggot
Luffy didn't want to worry his crew
>b-b-but muh helmsman!
Franky in mech vs Wolf.
Sanji vs Pizarro or Vasco
Robin vs Catarina
Brook vs Vasco or Pizarro
It's okay user, we won't hold getting btfo this hard against you.
Wow, I wasn't even thinking about that. Thanks.
To show how much stronger Luffy is now that if he fought his d self he could literally let him beat on him with abandon and then still easily win.
Sanjuan Wolf is obviously going against the whole Fleet, he's too big to handle for one person
Can Brulèe enter a mirror inside Bege's body?
Jimbei's faggats rejoice
No it’s because Luffy knows what to do to win and he was just gauging Katakauri while hiding his strength before deciding on the best way to beat him.
luffy needs time to recharge his haki, he is playing for time.
Sanji vs Vasco
Robin vs Catarina
Franky vs Sanjuan
Brook vs Avalo
Carrot vs Kuzan
Make a lot of sense. That or Gear 5
Or this. Either way it’d going to overwhelm Katakuri and he will remember Roger in Luffy when he loses.
is haki's nature closer to chakra or is it closer to ki? what is a haki other than an asspull to prevent further asspulls
Was Luffy’s face the same right before he beat Enel’s CoO?
>luffy+bege>katakuri
...
...
This is wrong though
Luffy vs BB
Zoro vs Shiliew
Chopper vs doc and stonger
Usopp vs van auger
Brook vs lafitte (bad guy with angel wings vs good guy who got referred to as satan by those long arm dudes can't you guys see the parallels)
Sanji vs burgess
Jimbei vs wolf
And the rest are still kinda hazy
Haki is well established in various forms since manga was a medium.
It’s something to allow certain superhuman feats in a fantasy setting.
You guy's have no fucking idea what oda is really trying to do. Lemme tell you something and give ya little hint
G2 blood
G3 bones
G4 muscles
G5 is coming up and it's literally luffy. I'll tell you what it is if you beg me
Jinbe’s last panel has him giving a doubtful look as the other strawhats celebrate.
Looks like he is thinking,
>Luffy is gonna use... that.
And sighing.
It's semen, we already know
You really want to know don't you you little piggy. Well I'll tell ya.
G5 is luffy turning into a giant. A literal giant. It takes a while to create but when he becomes it he can go G2 for a lil while
Hope katakuri wasn't your favorite character kek
Oh shit, he's going to rubber his nervous system isn't he?
MONKEY
Brains.
He said he was tired of waiting for his crew because he foresaw the entire fight with Katakuri including Katakuri’s question and he won and got to the island before his crew.
Gear 5 is Mind.
>Luffy is actually the smartest character in the series
...
Oda also listens to Trick trick's Twerk Dat Pop That
If anything, Luffy will just name his awakening "Gear 5".
The fact that rubber doesn't conduct electricity means his neurons are better insulated and can propogate signals much better, so that'd be interesting if his reflexes and decision making speed up so Katakuri's future vision don't mean shit
But isn't that part of his body already made of rubber?
If it's just turning his surroundings into rubber i don't think he will. Reverse Gear would be more appropriate.
Gear NEGATIVE
JINBE CAN'T JOIN
LUFFY HAS TO BE THE STRONGEST IN THE CREW
This chapter was pretty good looks like oda can actually write a good chapter every once in a while
But Luffy is stronger than Jinbe
They don't need a helmsman.
If Zoro was there, they could just cut part of the wave.
If the storm is bad, Coup de Burst can just lift them above the clouds.
Oda is giving a bad excuse to force Jimbei on the crew
Katakuri is not stupid.
Luffy would be in more despair if his crew died.
Who was the most based SH this arc?
Nami
>holds cracker off everytime luffy goes G4 so he can recover
>zeus attack
>grinding her puss on boss jimbeis shoulders
Nami surpassed robins usefulness in dressrosa and her character. I am proud to say she is best girl and best SH.
Nami ruined the wedding. If it weren't for her, Luffy would get btfo by Cracker and Mom could eat her cake in peace. Nami is the worst.
Why are you making fun of Jinbefags when literally half the chapter was about wanking off Jinbe over how amazing he is? Surely these shitposts should have been posted before Oda showed off Jinbe.
>holds cracker off everytime luffy goes G4 so he can recover
Can we talk about how fucking strong nami must be to hold of cracker when luffy is recovering? She had help from homies but they aren't particularly strong themselves. She held her own against a sweet commander.
They don't need a swordsman either
Useful? Sure. Based? Fuck right off. Brook and Jinbe are the most based guys in this arc.
Nami is great in every arc she's allowed to be competent. I'm also glad that, ever since she saw how lewd she looked when Sanji was in her body, she's started wearing real outfits again.
DUDE HAKI LMAO
She probably didn't even do anything. Probably sucked him off or some other degrading act so luffy could recover
>Making responsible decisions cause sweat drops on her forehead.
>jobs to big meme
>jobs to perospero
>fucking played with like a toy by mama
Unuronically worse than chopper
Y O J D
O
J
D
still brook, despite a not so great showing during these last few chapters. but nami has always been a close second and the straw hats escape only cemented that
indeed; her outfits have been top notch ever since punk hazard ended
Please bnhafag, stop posting your pathetic excuse of a MC in threads others than your hugboxes
You can only change one thing about One Piece
>A: Make Robin's anime color error canon, stays a caramel mocha Goddess with a refined bust size that doesn't look like it came out of a deviantart inflation fetish page
>B: delete black haki, just state that masters of haki can willingly damage logia/paramecia and rely on the reader to fucking remember basic info about the characters
>jobs
>Implying Brook ever had a fucking grain of a chance against Big Mom
>Or even Perospero
>Still managed to wound Mama's soul
>Still managed to get a copy of the fucking ponyglyph
Yeah, alright.
jinbe will be dead by the time this arc is over and jinbefags are in full denial about it
Where's the Joseph 'You're about to say' edit you fucks
Jinbei is weaker than Sanji.
A, obviously. Only autistic children get mad about showing haki.
>rely on the reader to fucking remember basic info
Well, that's option B right off the table.
>Brook
>Luffy
>Nami
>Jimbei
Literally only useful people.
Meanwhile cuckji just soars to new lows and chopper will not stop that gay fucking kung fu point
Jinbe will die fags are the new Sanafag. Most cancerous posters itt.
go back to fapping to bara fish porn, jinbefaggot
>Destroyed the picture
>Stole a copy of the Red
Only Sanji and his cake will come close of what Brook did.
Sanji is stronger than Ace?
Sanji is weaker than jimmy. Jimbei is gonna be the new guy to do sick keikakus and shit. Cuckji needs to fuck off. Even his flesh and blood family is pathetic as him
A of course
agree
obviously the first one but it's not like you gave us two good options
Chopper jobbed against fucking Brulèe
Brook, no question
Brulée +a whole forest of homies. They probably waited until Monster Point wore off
Chopper and Carrot caught Brulee which was essential to the whole plan.
>Nami surpassed robins usefulness in dressrosa
>First person to actually hurt one of BM's main homies.
>Broke the picture by himself, possibly being the only person currently alive who inflicted severe psychological trauma to a Yonkou
>Will probably get his bone wet by Robin if he manages to deliver the copies
Sanji couldn't do shit. That's why they were there to save him. He was the prisoner. Now, that he's free he's literally baking a cake which will knock out Big Mom and not only save the strawhats but also the whole country.
I love this virgin killer dress
will katakuri be able to protect his family against the looming threat of straw hat luffy?
If they were going to knock out Big Mom they would have done so with the rocket launcher poison plot.
The cake isn't going to knock out big mom
So now the Sunny's crew has put a comfortable distance between them and Big Mom, there's no reason to get back to Sanji unless someone shows up to stop the cake from being cooked, god knows no one want to see the Vinsmokes again unless it's to get kicked by Sanji in a 1vs4, can we finally focus on Luffy?
