Chapter 943 SMILE Cover: Robin is knitting something very seriously
Kin’emon and Inuarashi were extremely hurt by Yasu’s execution and began to remember their past with him.
Orochi’s subordinates tries to get rid of the people of Ebisu Town, but they refuse and keeps shouting about Yasuie while laughing with tears.
Hiyori is still crying in Zoro’s arms: “People here don’t even have the right to feel sorrow, it’s like hell”
Zoro’s rage is building up, while Orochi carelessly claim that this is how Wano should be.
Udon Prisoner Mine— Luffy and Hyogoro saw the execution through the filming pond tanishi. Luffy couldn’t understand why people are laughing when someone died, Hyogoro explain that it could be the effect of the SMILE fruits.
Big Mom is not there yet.
Nami, Shinobu and the others— Shinobu is explaining to everyone about the SMILE fruits. There’s only a 10% success rate to obtain ability after eating the fruit, and there’s side effect: Those that didn’t obtain an ability will lose the expressions of sorrow and anger. In Shinobu’s flashback three people appears, Doflamingo, Kaido and Caesar.
That’s when Orochi had an idea about those SMILE failures. He mix those fruits with the foods that were transporting from the Capital to Okobore Town. Many people thought they were just apples, and the whole town became what it is today.
Scene shifts to Hiyori and Zoro— Otoko runs in, trying to save her father. She was discovered by Orochi, who shoots at her. That’s when our Sangoro and Zorojuuro appears and save her.
Redon added that the SMILEs mixed with the leftovers for the poor towns were the ones that were already bitten by Kaido's goons and turned out to be duds. We can assume that the goons who failed to get a winning gacha SMILE became the Pleasures.
This new layer to the Beast pirates dynamic has really boosted them up in my list.
Connor Powell
How big is Otoko's penis?
Juan Nguyen
That's odd. DFs are supposed to become useless chunks of fruit once someone has taken the first bite.
Ian Barnes
It probably has something to do with the fruit itself rather than the "power" that it gives. Like whatever the fruits made into smiles are treated with has those side effects regardless of whether the power has been given to someone or not
David Brooks
How many Pleasures and Gifters drowned when Jack got a fleet sunk?
Cooper Evans
a dud might keep a good chunk of SAD since it failed to turn whoever bit it first into a zoan user
It's funny how someone who looks like the Joker working under someone named Joker created the OP version of Joker gas.
Joshua Parker
>It was supposed to be ZoLo's arc and Sangoro shouldn't be in the spotlight.
>join the beast pirates >become an abomination guaranteed (either smiling freak or dumb looking smile) I'll take my chances with the superior yonko crews, thank you
Caesar's failed fruit is just Vegapunk's experiment mass produced. Neither one could figure out Devil Fruits, and both have been massively successful in their fields otherwise.
Justin Barnes
>sex queen >got flustered over Luffy getting a kiss >outed herself as a kissless virgin
Wano Country Hakumai (Why are you guys stealing such large amount of money?) (Because Oden-san is troubled by money. If you’re going to kill us then do it!! Hedgehog!!) Yasuie: That Oden, he found some weird people... You can have all the money that you lots were trying to steal......!! The young Scabbards: Huh—!! Huh~~~~?!! Subordinate: Lord Yasuie, then the economy of “Hakumai” are going to!! Yasuie: Also, these are for you guys to use! Here! Kin’emon: even more money?! You’re kidding right, what’s your plan?! Yasuie: Do you guys like Oden? Kin’emon: Of course, we are greatly indebted to him!! Yasuie: Then use these money to dress up neatly, learn some manners, buy some books for more knowledges. Having thugs like you guys for retainers will only bring shame to Oden!!
My wine aunt used to suck my dick when she babysitted me. She looked like the hot witch of Hocus Pocus, who isn't really "hot", just hotter than her sisters.
Nicholas Bailey
Doppu doppu BUIIIII~
Tyler Gomez
how the hell did Roger get Oden in his crew before going to Sky Island (since we see his writing up there which could only be done by Oden)? did he really go that far into the Grand Line, and then back?
Cooper Davis
Goddamned drunkard can't even upload his own image properly
>That’s when our Sangoro and Zorojuuro appears and save her.
Nothing happens again but next chapter is saying that something will happen.
About time.
Samuel Torres
Oden originally joined up with Whitebeard, and then left once he realized that he and his crew were full of massive homos. At that point he joined up with Roger, and then he started his final tour of the Grand Line, starting from Reverse Mountain all the way to Raftel.
Jaxon Wright
Why not? Roger was a pirate for decades.
William Rogers
did ya miss the part when rayleigh tells them that at the end of the log you find out some shit about the writing and would have to do it all over like roger did? but since they are the chosen they've been on the right path so dont have to redo it like roger did.
Carson Butler
Probably, yeah. Roger's trip to Raftel was only his last adventure, he had plenty before that.
Adam Bell
Oden probably ventured to Paradise first and that's where they dropped Zoro's master once one of the scabbards learned navigation from him.
Henry Cruz
I want to fuck Speed but my little white dick might not be enough to please her :(
Charles Miller
Stick a huge vibe in her horse pussy and then just hump her front while playing with her titties.
Must have been awkward seeing Izou on Whitebeard's ship
Alexander Butler
it's for Carrot's birthday bash
Luke Torres
I fucking hate namifags so much lads
Isaiah Lewis
Izou was one of the original 9 Red Scabbards, and stayed on with the WB pirates after Oden left. See: That's Izou between Kanjuro and Denjiro. The reason he stayed is obvious, he finally found kindred spirits in faggotry.
Caleb Bennett
You can expect more of One Piece High School in the future! Zoro's is the first in the series
Honestly, Oda should've had their places switched- Zoro on the left and Sanji on the right. Then their close up "HUUUH!?" would've been glaring at each other through their scar and hair.
zoro holding his foster daughteru pretty tight roronoa toko has a nice ring to it
Landon Fisher
It's not one person.
Bentley Barnes
I think that she was with Komurasagi after Toko ate Sanji food.
Dylan Nelson
>only 10% success rate >on success, turns you into a freak of nature with little strength upgrade Doflamingo scammed the SHIT out of Kaido
Jose Miller
>Orochi feeding people leftover SMILES He's so kind!
Dominic Sullivan
How in the fuck does Usopp even know this anyways? He's acting like he already knew that Toko was Yasu's daughter, instead of figuring it out from the context.
>Helping Zou people before return with the Straw Hat Piratas again.
Ryan Watson
Yasu is 100% confirmed to survive this now, Usopp's lies always come true so the toad oil will save him. fuck you Oda you fucking hack I actually thought you were going to kill someone off
Jace Flores
based zorojuro saving his daughter
David Ramirez
maybe MS translation will be different, let's see. I noticed this weird thing too
Bentley Turner
>Sanji confirmed non-virgin Nice.
Owen Thompson
It's almost like he was told that... Hint: Read slow
Robert Wilson
>we finally get an explanation for why so many of Kaidou's forces go down smiling I thought it was just an indication of sado-masochism inherent to the beast pirates but there was actually and explanation, chapter is satisfactory, but still no confirmation of Queen's whale whale fruit so 7/10
Zoro and Sanji havent seen eachother since early dressrosa, right? Jesus christ.
William Smith
I want to lick Robin's sweat. It must taste so fucking good.
Jeremiah Lee
>laughing caused orochi to be mad at otoko >he gave the town smiles ??????????????????????????
Hudson Hernandez
so luffy and big mom explode the prison to end act 2? or will it be next week when these two need to fight their way out of the capital with the rest of the of the crew
Cameron Reyes
Kaido only accepts Zoans.
Oliver Reyes
and they gonna get buttfucked now by Hawkins and Drake
Luke Long
They're working together, but they don't have to like it!
Caleb Lopez
Orochi is a dick
Asher Martin
>Hawkins and Apoo are zoans Wow.
Isaiah Sanders
kaido must be super shitfaced all the time otherwise he would have realized by now in a moment of soberness that he got taken by Caesar and dofla
Jaxon Myers
I love this page in the chapter but it would've been perfect if they had Kaido smiling instead of frowning.
>Have to wait a week to see them interact for the first time in nearly six years >Direct confrontation with Orochi and two supernovas >finally ending the 944 posting This next week is going to be a long one.
He's at home, drinking, and knows King took care of Linlin. Everything is looking up for once.
Evan Bell
Wait. Why is this the OP pic? Who's this supposed to be?
Jeremiah Miller
Would you smile after getting scammed so hard?
Landon Perry
What do people think of Choppers Post TS change? I personally think it makes him cuter and less ugly than his previous counterpart.
Logan James
I like how the artificial devil fruits are supposedly delicious to counter actual devil fruits being disgusting
Jose Clark
in your heart
Christian Flores
>sanji was too slow to get toko >zoro had to pick her up with his injured arm
BASED sancuck being a useless sack of shit
Elijah Gonzalez
>Caesar's failed fruit is just Vegapunk's experiment mass produced. Neither one could figure out Devil Fruits Wrong on both counts. None of the SMILEs are even remotely comparable to Vegapunk's dragon DF. Plus Oda once said that a "certain professor" knows what devil fruits really are and will explain it.
Cameron Diaz
Really drives home how we've been on this overarching Smiles storyline for 7 years since Punk Hazard. Oh, and the Straw Hats have not even once used the log pose ever since entering the New World.
Christian Gutierrez
Agree mostly, but the hat is too big.
Jeremiah Williams
what's he talking about?
Ryan Diaz
Yes they did, did you not remember how they first got to Punk Hazzard?
Luffy chose the most crazy needle on the 3x log pose that was given to Nami at Fishman Island.
Good point. Nami needs to prove her worth if she's not using her log pose. Back to the bathhouse.
Jason Martin
This, there's no adventure anymore. Everything has been preordained. Might as well drop the series at this point since we know for a fact they'll end up at Raftel.
Zoro is actually the second. The first one didn't pick up as much steam. It featured all of the Strawhats. youtube.com/watch?v=ZXJF8RdpVA8
Wyatt Richardson
Punk Hazard wasn't that island. Urouge went to that island. The Strawhats ended up with a school of Island Whales and went to Punk Hazard by chance, not by following the Log Pose.
Kevin Richardson
And then they intercepted a distress call from Punk Hazard and decided to go there instead.
Jaxon Adams
>Kaido paid billions for fruits with a 10% success rate
Brody Smith
They got to Punk Hazard because they saw it after receiving a phone call from someone who was screaming for help because Kinemon was cutting him up.
Jaxson Robinson
Honestly, try to remove as much characterfaggotry and preference from your mind as possible:
If this series was following some other pirate crew and we were just now introduced to the SHP in a similar way to any other Yonkou crew, what would your thoughts be on them
Jackson Bailey
Things aren't looking good, this chapter was really good. We have to meet on discord.
Andrew Edwards
No, she loves weird animals and would want to add him to her collection.
Hunter Brooks
>Forgetting that Toko had the toad oil with her, as shown a few chapters ago when Zoro was patched up
Ryan Scott
Robin is so fucking useless, why doesn't she clutch orochi from afar?
Alexander Reyes
>This, there's no adventure anymore. Everything has been preordained. That stops after this arc. This whole alliance with Law thing literally ends here.
Lincoln Watson
So does Yasopp realize Usopp is in the Straw Hat crew, or at least that it's his son? The most we've ever seen him acknowledge it is when he, along with the other Red Hair Pirates, were laughing delightfully at their new bounties.
>KAIDO PAY YOUR ALIMONY >I CAN'T I SPENT ALL MY MONEY ON SMILES
Christopher Turner
lame designs
Joseph Wright
animeonly pls
Isaiah Torres
Punk Hazard doesn't show up on the log. The log was pointing at Raijin Island but then they got caught in that crazy current and surfaced right next to Punk Hazard.
Angel King
>Forgetting How the fuck did I forget it when that's literally what I said?
Nicholas Gray
Best to worst: >Luffy (if I knew he was the captain) >Brook >Franky >Sanji >Chopper unironically >Jinbe >Usopp >Luffy otherwise >Zoro >Robin >Nami

Jacob Wright
>the Straw Hats have not even once used the log pose ever since entering the New World.
I gave you one time where they did use the log pose. Even if it was not the island, they did use the log pose at that time.
Matthew Morales
>implying deadbeat dads care about their kids He's black, user.
Lincoln Perry
That these two badasses hate each other with a passion and are about to destroy every other person on that execution ground.
Ayden Ward
>Two rivals finally get pissed off enough at the third party antagonist that they work together to beat his ass My favorite trope. Good to see it returning to One Piece, it's been a long time since the Groggy Ring.
But I pointed out that the fact that she had the toad oil meant Yasu will survive. What the fuck are you even talking about?
Luis Stewart
Literally never happened.
Evan Green
I'd probably think Zoro is a better main "bad" guy than Luffy, since Luffy wouldn't work as an antagonist. I'd probably love Luffy's fruit, but find GEAR 4 a bit underwhelming. I can see how people might also find a lot of SH too special, rarely is a crew as specialized as the SH. Even Blackbeard's crew shows less genius than SH, we don't know if they have an amazing navigator, or an incredible doctor, just that they are fun quirky designs with some character, like Doc Q.
>fuck you Oda you fucking hack I actually thought you were going to kill someone off
Caleb Allen
Because Noda IS Oda
Angel Gray
Yes?
Anthony Morales
>mfw weak shits like Joker and Caesar >mfw my man Orochi How is Orochi so cool?
Owen Ramirez
Kaido only likes people that make him look more attractive by comparison
David Sullivan
Look at the top right panel of that page.
Oliver Reed
Wrong wording on my part, then. My bad. Yeah, my point was that they never followed the log pose ever since entering the New World.
Brandon Butler
Its a good reference to point out, I had forgotten like most other people.
Tell me user, what are your predictions for the next 10 chapters? Do you think Big Mom will remember? Will the final battle start sooner than we think? Udon is awfully close to the mine, I think Big mom will go on a rampage because shes hungry and we will see a big Prison Riot. As Luffy Learns the one type of Armament Haki
Adam Harris
Your fanart is really cool but it doesn't really count, does it?
Benjamin Hall
She's navigating by the vivre card. You fucking see it in her hand.
i cannot wait for zoro to btfo even more than he is now by sanji showing up its when sanji tells him his bounty
Christopher Lee
They have used the log pose, but otherwise you have a point. The story has been railroaded for almost all of the New World. Punk Hazard was the one and only island that they didn't learn about ahead of time and choose to go to with some other character's guidance. The trip from Fishman Island to Punk Hazard was also the last time it was just the Strawhats sailing.
Reminder that Nami is too embarrassed to use the log pose after bragging she spent 2 years studying the New World weather and didn't know fuck all about it.
Sebastian Phillips
You know what they say about girls with long necks.
>this edgy swordsman guy must be the big bad, guessing the manlet with the hat is their new little bro recruit, kinda cute >wait the robin chick would literally shit on everyone with her armament haki
But what I was referencing was a manga cover panel with the crew having a hearty chuckle. But I guess your speedreader brain can't process that so quickly.
Jacob Butler
It would've been impressive if she didn't do that to the slowest of the monster trio + brook
Luis Jones
New Cover story when?
Parker Flores
Never, Oda's too burnt out.
Carson Powell
>>Sanji confirmed non-virgin Sure he is. Okamas fucked him for two years nonstop..
Lol, the first panel looks like Dofla and Caesar lmaoing for successfully ripped off Kaido.
Jordan James
The absolute state of swordlets
Anthony Stewart
>Zoro pissed because seeing a shameful death of a honorable man reminded him of Kuina, and how the people of Ebisu can't grieve >Sanji pissed because Orochi used starvation to cause suffering >Luffy pissed at anyone who laughs at someone else's death, and Hyogoro likely told him the truth just as Shinobu did for Sanji and co., and Hiyori for Zoro
Orochi is probably the first villain to simultaneously piss off the Monster Trio. That fucker is about to get his ass slashed and roasted.
Anthony Scott
I'm not a fan of it. It makes Chopper look like a cute mascot character instead of a reindeer. Most of his signature reindeer facial features are gone, and he looks more like a baby bear now.
Carter Thompson
what if Sanji fucked hot Okama "girls"?
I bet Sanji will pull Okiku aside during the obligatory big party and fuck him while everyone else is too bussy to notice.
Jacob Sanchez
Is it just me, or does young Franky resemble Kid? Aside from hair color of course. You know, they're both from South Blue.
I wish Chopper would do more at all since the TS, showing off the fact he can control Monster Point/ Awakening for a little bit, giving children medicine, and defending against Big Mom with the rest of the crew are his only real big feats. He ought to get some love this arc.
Robert Hernandez
Funnily enough, that's literally my only gripe with OP so far that can't stop bothering me. I can dismiss a lot, but Nami not knowing about the very BASIC thing that allows you to navigate through the New World made me extremely mad. You could literally just tell us she was prepared, but on Punk Hazard Vegapunk left some old tech and one of them was this fancy new triple log pose that shows different islands, something Nami would not know about, but still give us the same end result.
Tyler Howard
Imagine if Kaido betrayed Orochi and forced his zoan to awaken to send a berserk beast against the allied forces and the monster trio obliterated him with a timeskip version of their sabaody combo attack.
the character design is incoherent holy fuck how do they even survive with less than 5 strong fighters why are most of them manlets
Owen Bailey
are you the zoroposter-kun?
Lincoln Garcia
That's one way of looking at it, I guess. Dayum.
Lincoln Powell
GOD USOPP WILL SNIPE THE SHIT OUT OF OROCHI NEXT CHAPTER
ALL HAIL GOD USOPP
Colton Wright
the real witching hour boy is one of the ebisu town residents who consumed the smile fruit and was part of the lucky 10% that developed zoan ability. thats my headcanon. yasu and the witching hour boy are long time friends and yasu took it upon himself to clear the name of this particular man in his last living moments.
Leo Turner
i'm down for 8 pages of the strawhats beating the shit out of orochi
Xavier Morales
>>188572012 Seems like sendicucks forgot all the humiliation in last arc.
A 10% chance is actually pretty good compared to the usual rates, though...
Ryder Williams
Gotta let the hate brew for at least one more act before he goes down. Drake and Hawkins are getting their shit kicked in though.
Dylan Wilson
All the fruits sent there were defective.
Levi Sanders
I don't think Kaido cared I mean, to him they are all fodder. Thus once he saw the result he simply split them into: ''stronger'' fodder and weaker ones.
Gifters could probably tear through all other fodder in the series.
Joseph Anderson
>Zoro and Sanji fighting and going after Orochi >Shinobu, Kin'emon, Inuarashi, Kanjuro, Shutenmaru, Hiyori, Nami, Usopp, Franky, Robin, and Brook close by >Drake, Hawkins, and countless other Beast Pirates present >Luffy, Hyogoro, and Queen watching events on screen just as Big Mom, Chopper, Momo, Tama, and Kiku show up to the prison >Kaido watching all of this on his own transmission
Next few chapters are going to be fucking amazing.
>Carrot fondles a pair of big black balls while Chopper licks them Lewd.
Anthony Walker
>Kin'emon, Inuarashi, Shutenmaru They're over in Bakura Town you dimwit.
Grayson Long
What if Brook literally killed himself to make his fruit reappear and they fed it to Yasu’s corpse and he came back but Brook was dead and Yasu was the new brook
Nathan Gomez
Is it time to put the rivalry aside? How much of the capital are they going to cut and burn to the ground? I don't think they've actually been properly pissed since the TS, even with WCI Sanji was just sort of dealing with his own family problems not particularly upset about cruelty.
>implying it won't be shown that Toad Oil actually is the solution to curing the SMILE curse, suddenly making everyone revert to normal, and making all the members of Kaidou's crew that got stuck that way decide to betray Kaidou so they can get the cure He's called GOD USOPP for a reason.
It's close enough that they can get there quickly if they really wanted to. Also, what matters here is that Inuarashi and co. know more of what Orochi and Kaido did to incite their wrath.
Jackson Wood
He doesn’t want to die in a pussy-ass way like that
Joseph Morris
Oda has had a fascination with toads in several color spreads.
>Toei: That sounds like a great idea for filler. Now, how can we include Carrot in this...?
John Ramirez
i mistakenly thought that the chance of developing zoan ability was due to the particular biology/genetic sequence of the person consuming the fruit and not the fruit itself. certainly the latter is a lot more simple and the actual intended understanding. my bad.
>implying Caesar don’t surpass Vegapunk. It’s a good dream.
Camden Scott
Because he'd be dead, or have another DF power. >inb4 he actually DOES have another Devil Fruit power
James Wood
Sanji is looking stellar as he saves Otoko
Cameron Collins
>Kaido eats another Devil Fruit >it explodes inside his stomach >he's FUCKING INVINCIBLE >all it does is give him a tummy ache >the devil fruit re-spawns Fug.
Luke Brown
Kaidou of the 1000 Beasts
Angel Brooks
fuck, I want this to happen now
Levi Cooper
Vegapunk is going to have fully working paramecias, user. And an army of Pacifistas that use them or something.
William Young
>Blackbeard: Extremely selective and very quick to abandon you if you fuck up. Doesn't give a shit about his subordinates.
>Shanks: Cares about his subordinates. Only invites people that he is interested in, but otherwise they seem to have lots of fun.
>Big Mom: Only cares about subordinates that are worth something to her. Her children are automatically members by default, but she cares little about their wellbeing. Anyone who affiliates with her must sever all other ties to any other organization or group. Outsiders have a small chance at promotion provided they prove themselves, but top slots reserved only for her children. Any child who fucks up gets demoted. Anyone who leaves her is dead.
>Kaido: Doesn't care about subordinates but doesn't go out of his way to punish them either unless they really fuck up. Still allows failures to be part of his crew. Invites captains of rival crews into his group and gives them preferential treatment, even those who aren't Zoans.
Blackbeard is probably the worst as it is strictly egalitarian. You have to constantly improve yourself to stay in the crew, or you're dead. With Kaido, you only have to suffer through the effects of SMILEs unless you incite his wrath.
Sebastian King
This could actually happen, holy shit Not with Yasu but with somebody else later down the line, maybe a Strawhat
Kevin Edwards
>Dressrosa is the prequel arc to Wano >introduces the idea of a devil fruit making someone immortal >Kaido can't die Wow, i wonder what it means
Brandon Gomez
Fucking based.
Jacob Bailey
Obviously. The guy in green is Kawamatsu, who always wears a hat, the guy in orange is Denjiro, who has a very long ponytail and hasnt actually showed in the arc yet.
>Thinking someone can't change their weapons and fighting style after 20 years
Liam Mitchell
>tfw still hoping for the next batch of nude edits
Ryder Price
Why do people believe that’s a pony tail and not a literal tail instead?
Henry Martin
He cares in a strictly utilitarian sort of way. If they died fighting Ace (which he was confident he could take on alone), then they'd be of no use to him.
Jordan Long
Blackbeard cared only in the sense that it was hard for him, as an unknown pirate with no reputation, to procure powerful allies. He only valued their strength because the opportunity cost to replace them was too high. Now that Blackbeard is a Yonko, he has a much easier time amassing strong allies.
There is also Blackbeard wanting to fight Ace on his own, so he also did it out of pride. Blackbeard's withdrawal was basically an order for his subordinates to stay the hell back so he can fight Ace on his own.
Josiah Flores
>make people's life go to shit >dislike them crying >rip them out of ability to express their sadness, force them to laugh >try to kill a little girl you crippled for life like this for laughing in your presence Seriously, One Piece has lots of cartoony villains, so we have tons of over-the-top evil scumbags, but I usually end up not caring about them since they're so boring (e.g. Wapol, Spandam, even Caesar during his tenure as a main villain), but this guy here is so ridiculously hateable, I can't imagine not wanting to see him gutted out.
Liam Moore
Hmm Yellow popsicle Sanji is yellow Popsicles are phallic
What could it mean
Daniel Ortiz
...
Bentley Russell
WAITERS please run as fast as you can!
Sebastian Rivera
Well since it was hive mind i believe it, I guess he doesn’t care like i thought. Weird he still keeps burgess around if he doesn’t care though.
>focus on Zoro most panels >ruins the last page with Sanji Well at least he's the one who saved Toko
Zachary Foster
Shanks: no sub-humans to begin with
Joseph Long
I feel is more stupid than hateable. Orochi is a boring character because he is as stupid as a plank. I felt spandam to be more hateable, because i was far more invested in the EL arc than wano. Pretty much everything oden / wano nobility related is so boring. Hiyori is the only good character of that side of the story, and thats because she has a lot more going on besides "im the princess"
Nolan Murphy
zoro looks angry:the chapter
Matthew Long
Will that dumbass accidentally eat the only functional SMILE in the country?
why Zoro couldn't just slash whole capital in a half i thought that he was stronger than Luffy
Hudson Hughes
Tiger obviously
Parker Bennett
That’s where you thought wrong, swordlet.
David Myers
He's like Wapol, I like him but can't really treat him seriously due to how cartoony his evil seems, at least he seems to have some interesting backstory (friendship with Oden)
So Zoro is pretty much gonna murder him during the raid right? I mean it's confirmed that the magistrate is dead and Zoro killed him for less than what Orochi has done.
Kevin Perez
Why did I laugh at this
Jaxson Clark
>I'm a sick fuck >I like a quick suck
Ryder Cox
Relax Zoro, this week you have to show your shoujo face.
Anyone knows what's Kaido trying to imply with those line "Orochi had a poor taste"? I can't get it.
Austin Williams
>There is also Blackbeard wanting to fight Ace on his own, so he also did it out of pride. Blackbeard has never shown being above ganging up on someone, he called his crew to help him kill a crippled WB. I know BB is full of contradictions, but the pride of a warrior making him want to go one-on-one is a headcanon. It's more reasonable to assume he simply assumed they'd be of no help against Ace, which goes in line with what he said.
Also, we have never seen BB punishing someone for their failures, even though his crew fails all the time. He even agrees with Ace that killing a crewmember is a grave crime, but concludes Yami Yami was more important than that. Now a little bit of my own headcanon. He's a destiny-geek so I guess he assumes that if they failed it was simply meant to be this way, it doesn't mean they won't be useful. But on the other hand, it doesn't give him any incentive to avenge his crewmates, since their failures were their own fate, and that's what Betty (or whoever said that) was referring to.
Isaiah Gonzalez
Orochi already dabbed hard on this faggot lmao
Nicholas Morris
Orochi is far from being the plain retarded bad guy tho, don't get fooled by his design.
He kept the world govment away from his country even telling cp0 to give him vegapunk or fuck off. He was still cautious from the vengeance myth from odens wife. (This was so next level his low Iq subordinates think of him as a coward) The whole feed smiles to the suffering hungry masses is machiavelic as fuck. The deal he has with one of the fucking younkou doesn't straight up fuck him but allows him to stay in a position of power and luxury.
Dylan Sullivan
Just that he's an asshole.
Oliver Flores
He's saying Orochi caused those people to be unable to do anything but laugh and is telling them to cheer for him when he does something awful that makes them want to cry. He's saying Orochi is an absolutely horrible asshole and that he thinks it's funny.
Zachary Baker
He's basically saying Orochi is an asshole
Jonathan Wood
He might just attack him now, the situation with the raid was already on shaky ground before Yasu tried to reset things, but they can't exactly keep waiting, things will only get worse. For one thing, they destroyed the SAD and SMILE factories, so Kaido will probably start to rage out at Wano citizens anyways.
William Ward
he's amused by his cruelty
William Richardson
>Still allows failures to be part of his crew There's really only been one big failure in his crew, guys, let's be honest.
Jonathan Mitchell
The genuine happiness of this character makes it absurdly difficult to hate him.
Carson Thomas
Lol does Caesar have a single successful experiment? Dude is a shitty scientist.
He hates gays and wants to keep as many away from his series as possible.
Luis Lopez
His poison gas used on Zou defeated the entire country instantly, literally stronger than Yonko commander Jack who was forced to rely on it. Other than the asspull of Chopper being there they were fucked. Don’t underestimate Caesar, other than Kaido he is the only one to KO Luffy post skip.
Elijah Harris
Nah i caught a different vibe from their relationship. Maybe kaido ends up being a sympathetic villain or maybe he's been using orochi this entire time.
So Vegapunk considered artificial Devil Fruits a failed experiment, possibly because of the SMILE syndrome and high failure rate. Punk Hazard had one Vegapunk's fruit, which was Dragon Zoan eaten by Momonosuke. So, Momo lucked out by 10%, and if he didn't he'd now be permanently laughing.
>Makes gays look like mentally ill abominations Thanks for proving my point
Wyatt Fisher
Nami is giving that Toad the "fuck me" eyes.
William Davis
Do you think Gear 4 would look cool in that style?
Gabriel Adams
Sanji doesn't look mentally ill though
Gabriel King
I think you're confusing Vegapunk's perfect replica with the Caesar knock offs user
Jaxon Gomez
Jesus Christ, what kind of sick pervert writes chapters like this. Do you think Oda comes up with the tragic end first and then masturbates at the thought of leading everyone there through ridiculous seeming character quirks or does he come up with the quirks first and make up a contrived backstory after?
Jonathan Cooper
That frog is having none of her shit
Noah Jackson
Have you seen him post timeskip? He is an example of what the negative influence of faggotry can do to a man.
Logan Walker
Would have been more impactful if Toko wasn't a shit. I can't sympathize with her.
Matthew Martin
>SMILE makes you utterly incapable of being sad
Would this make Perona's DF useless against a SMILE user, or would it instantly kill them?
Gasellman outrun Luffy Batman could fight Zoro and has super hearing
Ayden Gomez
Oda has explicitly confirmed that the reason he refuses to show Vegapunk is that when he finally appears he will explain all the mysteries of Devil Fruits. Unless he's a crazy guy who refuses to share his secrets, you know he's been pumping out successful fruits or at least knows why it can't be done.
Isaac Lee
They'd just start making jokes about wanting to die
>I feel is more stupid than hateable. Orochi might be paranoic, but he's far more reasonable in identifying threats than any other previous villain. He's definitely not more stupid than Spandam. And I never could find Spandam truly hateable due to how much of pathetic and unlucky guy he was. I mean, he's punished by life every step he makes, which doesn't really make me want to see him punished more, I mean, not like I think he shouldn't be, I just don't care too much. Also, a matter of respect, both him and Orochi aren't respected by their subordinates, but Orochi is at least feared, which makes me wanna see him fall, Spandam doesn't have that factor. >Pretty much everything oden / wano nobility related is so boring. Amassing a loyal crew from criminals and hoodlums is a god tier trope, a confirmation that it was how the Akazaya Nine came to be defintely made me like them more. Especially that it happens paralell to Oden's own coming-of-age story, at this point I really do like to see the flashback and see how it played out. But well, you have your opinion.
Joshua Garcia
I mean SMILE fruits are still successful 10% of the time, and Kaido doesn't seem to give a shit since he keeps buying them.
Nathan Adams
>"SO... WAIT... WAIT... LET ME FINISH! WHERE WAS I... AH, YES THOSE FAULTY FRUITS OF YOURS, RIGHT? YES, I MANAGED TO SNEAK THEM INTO ONE OF THE LEFTOVERS TOWN WITHOUT BEING NOTICED... AND THEY ALL LITERALLY ATE THEM UP. I MEAN, HOW STUPID CAN THOSE LOW-LIVES BE?" >"WORORORO... THIS FUCKING GUY... HEY QUEEN, COME HERE. LISTEN WHAT THIS LITTLE FELLA HAS TO SAY! "
There is literally a no win senario when it comes to smileys. You either get the power of a zoan and become a deformed freak of nature that can't swim. Or you become a freak of nature that can only smile and laugh while also not being able to swim.
Wtf oda why would anyone serve this guy if not by force? Also will vegapunk make an appearance and possible fix all of this?
>why would anyone serve this guy if not by force? PLUNDER AND BOOTY
Henry Torres
In One Piece Magazine, Oda draws an illustration requested by a fan. The most recent ones he did were Luffy and Katakuri's Merienda (Vol. 4) and ASL as marines (Vol. 5). The request in this upcoming magazine (Vol. 6) will be Zoro with a certain devil fruit.
Gazelleman was left wheezing after running away with Tama, and Holdem's lion keeps punching him in the balls. Then there's that embarrassment Dobon, who got stomped by a (diluted) seastone shackled Luffy and Kid. While in these shackles, Luffy also clobbered Daifugo. Keep in mind that Holdem, Dobon, and Daifugo are all Headliners. Elites among the Gifters.
Luis Cruz
Kaido gets the better deal, if there's anything worse than a 10% DF it's definitely weapons.
Adrian Cooper
I think Kaido was tricked by Orochi, and is his slave. He gets to act cool and tough, but because of a trick is Orochi’s bitch. He has free reign to act cool until he’s called on. He wants death really because it would free him.
Dominic Gray
kaido just chilling enjoying the drama. shocked at the extent of orochi's lack of compassion.
Connor Watson
> Robin > that short
Jaxon Morgan
t. no-sympathy-kun
that smile side effect is effective in its melodrama and to its point but annoying in practice, but Toko is the only one that pulls it off in a real tragic way
Wyatt Lopez
Why would anyone become a pirate? There's no win scenario. You either get captured by marines or get killed by another pirate. Luffy should've stayed a peasant in his tiny village.
Tyler Perry
Why the fuck was this delayed? Is it because it contains info on something in the manga that would be a spoiler because Oda takes so many breaks?
Jaxson Jackson
But it was that gay blood that saved his life. It seems to agree with with his body.
Blake Morris
poor example, Luffy clearly realized Pirate>>>>>Mountain bandit from a young age.
Jayden Ortiz
The guys who fought Luffy were up against Straw Hat motherfucking Luffy. Don't get me wrong, they're still shit, but c'mon, they were up against Luffy
Josiah King
Drake and Hawkins to betray Kaido after a short fight with Sanji and Zoro?
Connor Roberts
Honestly, the grossest thing with Toko was not even that she was laughing. How does anyone skip over the fact she was literally about to get shot because she ran to her father's corpse trying to give him fake medicine that Usopp sold to her by lying about its capabilities? Usopp was always the worst Straw Hat and it's about time they publicly execute him.
Nathan Ramirez
BRASS MONKEY THAT FUNKY JUNKIE
Alexander Fisher
>willingly chose to stay in Trannyland for 2 whole years "learning" how to dump HGH in food
He could've left anytime he wanted, but he felt his time would best be spent with the largest collection of faggots in the entire world.
Nathaniel Mitchell
I hope zoro and sanji just straight up murder orochi already so we can move from the shitty part of the arc into the good one: kaido Let BM go berserk, bring up Katakuri, pudding and brulee back into the story, give more focus to the Beast pirates
Jordan Smith
>Usopp sold to her She stole it. She's a thief and deserves everything she gets.
The Straw Hats are pirates because they realized true freedom is to acknowledge no laws of man. Technically speaking, everyone in Luffy's crew including the fleet only follow him because they love him and therefore even though he's the leader none of them are subservient to anyone. Meanwhile, a crew that serves their leader in fear or to get used and abused like the Beasts Pirates is literally no better off than being a peasant getting burned alive with the trash by the nobles in Luffy's home kingdom. Yes, there's the off-chance you can get lucky and become someone important in the Beasts Pirates organization but you get that same luck as a peasant that you could be some important person in your community.
he chose to spend 2 years in his own personal hell fighting ultra strong trannies and their tranny king just to get stronger he doesn't have his own personal mihawk after all
Isaiah Phillips
>What is this if not Hell? >Ah, Wano! So cheerful! This is Heaven itself derpyderp! Fuck Orochi.
Juan Rodriguez
Judge> Caesar
-had a beautiful wife -have a clone army -from a royal family -3 successful sons -a beautiful daughter -Sanji is stronger than failure Smiles Gifters
Elijah Robinson
Since Zoro and Sanji met this chapter, the pairs of Straw Hats with the longest time of not meeting face-to-face (chapter-wise) are ex aequo Sanji-Robin and Sanji-Usopp who didn't meet between chapters 701 and 927 for an astounding 225 chapters, record unlikely to ever be beaten. All of this doesn't count Jinbe who wasn't a crew member last time Zoro group met him and Vivi since she's former/honorary.
Luis Allen
>my taste....dare i say.... >is shit
Lucas Thomas
He stayed there to beat the karate masters and steal their power up recipes. Only one of which has actually been named and confirmed to appear, at the end of Punk Hazard. Due to various separations, the crew hasn't actually eaten Sanji's food much post-ts.
Cooper Rivera
They can still transform so they're fine
Liam Hill
I obviously mean grossest as in the most reprehensible thing about her scenario. Toko is an angel but what's clearly even darker than her laughing is the medicine Usopp lied about that made her believe she could save her father.
Brayden Rogers
kaido has very effective propaganda. he promises weak men with no power in wano the chance to rise from poverty and achieve greatness. conquesting the seas is a lot more fun than living in squalor in totalitarian japan. or on the other hand, kaido let's you be the boot rather than the one being squashed if you're not conquesting the seas.
Carson Barnes
What's so bothering? I don't think any of the wizards ever sailed the sea going by how gullibe they seemed to be, and weatheria is a sky island weather study. I don't think they even got books about the new world navigation . Nami spent 2 years studying the weather, not the navigation, both are different things though there's some link. There was no reason to assume the assume the new navigation tool since the new world is just a continuation of paradise
Totland is 35+ islands, you need a log pose to get from one to another
Jayden Rodriguez
This chapter was much better than last week's rubbish.
Dylan Lopez
>Toko is an angel Toko is disgusting.
Gavin Mitchell
All this shit is making me wonder why Kaidou didn't have Doffy use his connections in the Marines to find out where they're holing away Vegapunk so he could kidnap his egghead ass and put him to work making better DF's. Seems to me Vegapunks SMILES are leagues above Ceasars since all they seem to do is give you a weaker but fully functional Zoan transformation
Jaxon Mitchell
first time since around 720
Blake Rodriguez
Everyone keeps talking about how more wild the New World is compared to the Paradise (which honestly we didn't see much aside of Supernova visited islands and Zou, almost all the weirdest things in NW are traced back to relatively recent Devil Fruit usage). She definitely should have checked this out.
Easton Morales
How long were Neko and Inu in wano for?
Robert Nguyen
Why did judge only ever made 5 super powerful genetically engineered kids? All that army of clones should have went through the same treatment. Or kidnap random pregnant woman and do the treatment. He can code your brain to obey his orders anyway.
Now imagine if instead of 5 people strong enough to give oven and daifuki some trouble, he had 5 thousand.
Odatrying to hide the designs of his characters' is getting more and more ridiculoud every fucking chapter.
Leo Russell
>implying caesers personal pacifistas arent using perfected smiles
Daniel Nelson
To be honest Rayleigh, Roger's first mate didn't say anything about needing a new log pose, even 2 years later back in Sabaody.
Andrew Butler
Uh, the whole timeskip was trash. Oda has intentionally ruined the whole manga by maintaining the idea the Straw Hats all have to grow by tapping into their memory banks and punching harder rather than accept it happened offscreen and they already grew. Yes, some of the Straw Hats had meaningless two years (like Chopper, Brook, Usopp and Sanji) and may as well have been doing nothing. But quite a few of them were literally training with or using the knowledge of some of the most important people in the entire history of the One Piece universe and never address it at all. Luffy was with the guy who knew the Pirate King better than anyone in the world and was his strongest crewmember, Zoro was with the strongest swordsman in the world and best friend of the last boss in the manga, Nami was in the sky and mobile so that she was no longer constrained by a set path and could go anywhere she wanted and study, Franky was studying the early work of the biggest genius in the world and head scientist for the entire World Government and Robin was working with the most wanted man in the world who liberated countless kingdoms and probably knows all the secrets about Will of D and any mysteries about Luffy. But none of it will ever be addressed.
One Pacifista costs as much as a single fully decked out battleship with a seastone lining, and has to be personally handmade by Vegapunk. The SMILE creation process was streamlined to the point it produced at least 500 successful Gifters. From a pure cost perspective, the SMILEs are way better.
Jonathan Thompson
>im... dare i say... >coping
Kevin Thompson
Kawamatsu kinda makes sense since he's wearing a big hat that could be shadowing his face, but Denjiro is just blatant
Oliver Gray
Fight me fucker
Joseph Gray
yeah but 1 pacifista is stronger than any gifter we've seen
Chase Nguyen
Yeah, this must have been a late addition which doesn't change the fact it's all retarded.
Angel Jackson
The pre-skip pacifista army could probably sweep all 500 SMILE users. The only problem is that pacifistas probably cost way more to produce.
Zachary Butler
Usopp’s toad oil works miracles user, who are you to doubt its proven track record? I saw Usopp heal a cut on his arm with it on panel.
Kayden Miller
Sure, but is it stronger than 20? Or 500? Sometimes quantity is better than quality, especially when you have a fuckhuge territory that you need fully manned.
Lincoln Lewis
The thing is he did the same thing he did with Denjiro multiple times since the Reverie. I mean, probably not the first time, but in such a quick succession it's too much.
Ian Bailey
That checks out, Rayleigh was full anti spoilers, he barely told them about coating and that FI was below, the rest is up to them.
Aiden Parker
If Usopp’s toad oil can’t save Yasue, nothing can.
Kevin Ross
Orochi literally has the same connection as Doffy you moron. We already know the World Government openly collaborates with the Yonko to maintain power. They looked the other way on Caesar and Judge under the condition they got to keep Vegapunk.
Gavin Jenkins
Oh great, another bridge chapter until something really happens.
Luke Edwards
because Judge isn't a creep or rapist, he's a loving Father and husband
Anyone else fed up with Wano? I'm still traumatized with Dressrosa. I only care about mostly pre-timeskip characters (the mugiwara and past villains) and the Yonkous so I wanna run from these japanese samurai filler stuff
Jack Sanders
How did things not go down in this chapter? We learned some shit here, man.
Ryder Watson
I'm extremely excited to see what Vegapunk created that goes beyond the pacifistas and makes even the Shichibukai obsolete I wonder if it's related to his research of devil fruits or not
Fucking cunt with a perfect punchable face. I really want to keep punching her until her face literally breaks and she dies a slow painful death You will not know how much hate I hate for that ugly cunt
Landon Perry
Reverie is already over dude, Blackbeard was talking about it in the past tense.
James Howard
Go to bed Orochi.
Elijah Walker
Denjiro is clearly Witching Hour Boy who has been intentionally kept a mystery. Why would he be some irrelevant jobber like Kamazo.
Hudson Jackson
Has Caesar been more scared of Big Mom than Kaido? He did not kill Caesar because of the 10%. What would have happened if Caesar giant experiment were gefailed .. Big mom was lucky
What are you gonna do, cuckboi? Oh right just stand there pretending to be angry and hoping you look intimidating while Orochi fucks things up infront of you Fucking pathetic
Landon King
welp, one piece really went downhill after ID imho and somewhere halfway through WCI I even skipped reading panels once in a while (actually since fishman Island desu) but I have to admit that THIS was a good one ... haven't had this feeling with OP in years (back story of senor pink was close but only a handful of panels while this turned out to be a great overall chapter...) Kudos!
anyone feeling the same way?
Jayden Harris
I have no idea what you're trying to say, Wano has been great so far. > I only care about mostly pre-timeskip characters How can you not love the Grand Fleet or the Big Mom pirates?
Noah Lee
...
Connor Gutierrez
Lovable loli with a perfect fuckable cunt. I really want to keep fucking her until her face literally ahegao and she has a slow fulfilling pregnancy You will not know how much love I love for that cute loli
Aiden Garcia
>C*rrotfag Hopefully you die too along with the theory
Cooper Long
Is chopper’s human personality literally a personality from the void century. Chopper’s fruit should be literally the most difficult to make.
Anthony Moore
Yeah, good one but here is THE indicator: do you like Oden?
Orochi don't you have better things to do than shitpost?
Joseph Kelly
The end of the Reverie is "today". Blackbeard was talking about the fourth day. Also, going back in time is something Oda already did, that's how we saw Ace vs. Blackbeard (it wasn't even a flashback, narrator just informed us we're seeing events from few days prior).
Benjamin Rivera
It's gigantification. Vegapunk figured it out after examining the kids Smoker and Tashigi brought to him.
Aiden Campbell
I understand Denjiro and Neko because they haven't been revealed to be on the island yet but why didn't we see Kiku's reaction to Yasu's death. It's like Oda made her one of the nine arbitrarily before going back to his usual shtick with attractive female fighters. It's so blatant I wonder if his own wife and daughters ever make fun of him for it.
Juan Nelson
No. ID was worse than anything since then except PH and FI.
Gavin Turner
A fruit is only as strong as its user. Pacifista is definitely stronger than your average gifter who relies solely on the fruit power, but someone with creative approach and enough willpower could probably beat one. SHs destroyed a Pacifista without haki.
Ayden Jenkins
There were some very good chapters in the past, but I can't say we've had a truly great arc post-TS. And this chapter is definitely the best one of Wano so far, let's see where it goes.
Joshua Gray
>but why didn't we see Kiku's reaction to Yasu's death She's not even watching the execution
Jordan Allen
>Lovable She's anything but.
Tyler Ramirez
Happily, I have no plans to do that. Guess you'll just have to slit your filthy throat if you want any blood to spill. See you in the next thread!
Weren't his kids born psychopathic? Why are they happy to receive praise from him?
Blake Ward
Alright alright I'm dumb, I did love Big Mom's commanders and King is top 5 characters.
Liam Fisher
Nah was just hoping you’d die You never know where hopes can take you
Daniel Wright
Why do you think it would be shown onscreen? Are you actually stupid or just pretending to be? The entire reason Oda has to put reveals off for so ridiculously long and only hint at major events like Reverie is because he doesn't like revealing too much important stuff that our protagonists don't know. He wants us to learn about things at the same rate as Luffy, otherwise the story would just get confusing and people would always be complaining about how completely unaware the Straw Hats are about things literally every other character knows about. The only reason we see things like Reverie at all is to foreshadow future arcs, we already got more than enough material to foreshadow every important future arc.
Brayden Gomez
Not from birth, they grew their 'shells' around age 8
Juan Roberts
Nope
Gabriel Brooks
Because Oda has no idea what "no emotions" actually means.
It's on live broadcast all over the country. We've gotten reactions from people who aren't present at the event in every arc with a broadcast. We got Kawamatsu's reaction and he's not there either.
Nathaniel Ross
I literally stop taking anyone’s opinion in manga/anime seriously if they have their walls plastered with these ultra normie posters
Nolan Reed
Will watch his chapter review and enjoy how he'll freak out about the revelation here.
Colton Mitchell
Unironically true "Souls" are just brainwave/neuron patterns, Law's fruit proved that
Benjamin Foster
Live broadcast for those with the snails. She's currently riding on the the back of the crocoshark without one.
Could Enel hijack someones brain with his electricity?
Jaxon Smith
Well, God tried a few years back, but he saw your salty ass and decided to let me stick around. Who knows? Maybe a little faith IS all you need, but I have a sneaking suspicion that wishing death on another will be fufilled. Which is why you will stay alive and salty, and I'll remain here to remind you of that fact.
If Zoro keeps saving Toko, Hiyori is never going to let him go.
-She grew up emotionless and unable to smile because she saw her family dying -Toko is same age, also an orphan, forced smile, that's why Hiyori protects her, it reminds her of herself -Zorojuro is a strong bull with samurai style, basically the daddy she never had, who rescues the avatar of the young herself
