One Piece - Chapter 708 [manga]

[~Yami~]

Luffy and Cavendish may do a good combi... lol! Join the crew and you will get the fame, Cav!

Luffy's attempt to hide his identity is amusing... he's truly become adult now (he used to not be able to do it at all)

how Bartholomew beat him? using another stronger type of Haki?

In the anime maybe...Manga Hodi tanked through a lot of shots from Luffy but he was clearly taking damage from them.

durandal eh? i wonder if oda will also include other legendary swords like excalibur, joyeuse and clarent later on. based on the legends surrounding durandal, it's quite powerful and supposed to be indestructible. legends say that it once belonged to hector of troy but its most famous wielder is roland, a warrior in charlemagne's court. no wonder cavendish has survived in the new world without a DF, that sword is badass!

Well, the sword may be indestructible, but that's useless if you're a shitty swordsman - Cavendish is pretty strong (or should I say pretty and strong ).

i doubt he's shitty. he has survived this long in the new world. he would have died already if he didn't know how to wield that powerful sword.

Holy hell, Bellamy's attack's gonna get so censored in anime. One of the most brutal things I've ever seen in entire One Piece.

don chinjao seems pretty confident when he said to luffy and cavendish, "you two have talent but it's far too soon for you to be facing me..."

this might be true since he took luffy's shot and got up like it was nothing...
he even stopped the durandal...
n chinjao is not even in his prime anymore...

looks like luffy is still not at "admiral" level yet like some people believe he to be after the timeskip...

Not wanting to re-ignite the endless debate on Luffy's current strength, I do want to point out that judging overall strength for any parties involved based on a hit such as that is laughable.

It's like saying Admiral Kizaru wouldn't stand a chance against Rayliegh since Rayleigh deflected his attack way back when on the Sabaody Archipelago.

That said, I will agree with the general consensus that Don Chinjao taking that hit and seemingly shrugging it off like that is impressive in itself.

[bhl88]

Gear 2nd + third + Haki is enough for him. Gigant Jet Cannon Bazooka!

[marvelB]

Wow, Don Chinjao really IS a beast! And Cavendish is certainly no slouch either, considering how he blocked the old man's assault. And due to the current circumstances, I won't be the least bit surprised if Cap'n Bishie decides to crash into C-block's battle to gain vengeance on Luffy. He DID say he didn't care about getting disqualified after all (which pretty much means a default win for Rebecca in D-block, of course).



As for the ministory, I SO called the rebel commander being the old lady's son/grandson. Didn't expect him to be dead, though......

[ZGoten]

I found it funny how none of the guards intervened in that quick brawl. They were probably to busy wetting themeselves. But, hey, so would I. Bartolomeo's ability is intriguing. It seems like he's able to somehow deflect attacks. At least physical ones. That may prove a nuisance for Bellamy. Physical attacks is all he really has, and I doubt that he'll end up outwitting his opponent. He has never struck me as a particularly bright guy. Maybe it will just come down to simply overpowering Bartolomeo with sheer force. For that he would need his df abilities and a few places to bounce off and about the colosseum, like he did back in the fight against Luffy, where he jumped back and fourth between the buildings. I doubt the colosseum is build in a way that would allow that kind of strategy, though. I mean it's basically one giant flat circle. Maybe Bartolomeo will turn out victorious.

[vansonbee]

I loved the panel where Luffy kept denying he is not Luffy and saying he is Lucy with that funny face along with people blaming him that he attracts enemies.

[marvelB]

Okay, now I'm wondering: Barto's "barrier" was able to deflect Hack's punch, but what about that king's? I mean, Dagama claimed that the king's punch is powerful enough to knock out one of the yonkou, so maybe he'd make a good test for how strong Barto's power is? At least, as long as the arena is still standing afterwards?

[janipani]

This old man powers up DBZ style. Awesome!

[Randrak42]

Holy shit! Luffy is Lucy!?

It will be pretty exciting to see the King's punch as a test to anyone's power. It would be nice if it actually lands and he doesn't hit Dagama by accident

It looks like Chinjao and Sai have numbers tattooed on them, has anyone seen one on Boo?

Hm. I'd call getting half your face punched off more brutal .

Whether it's haki, or a 'barrier' or 'deflect'-fruit ability, his strength is quite impressive. Seeing as how Hack is one-shotting all the new world fodder with his punch, but Barto blocks that force without any effort. Makes you think what he can deflect with full effort..

Hope the B-Block battle is over soon, so we can move on to block C.

Ah yea, I remember her doing some other version of this to Spandam till she went berserk and brake him in two. But the scene sure made my jaw ache for a while

Im also impressed that new Bellamy is not relying on pure df power unlike most paramecia. In a full scale combat arena we only saw him using his devil fruit once. Didnt even used his signature hopper ability that can probably take out most combatants in there easily.

It's most likely even more faster/powerful/both after the skip.I dunno,I'm rooting for Bartolomeo,I like his style xD
