After reading this chapter, how does the Balance of the Three Powers really play out? Sure there might be High End NW Captains to help him, but their is MORE THAN HALF of the Schubukai, and 3 Admirals, and Sengoku. There is no way WB with the help of 43 other Captains can even this odd. Hell if Whitebeard was seriously that strong he could of made Ace PK already.

2) I also think its obvious that strength isn't the only factor in finding Raftel and conquering the Grandline. Its possible that the Polyngraphs will play a large role as well.

In page 12-13, on the left, is that Pandaman ship I see? >;3
Also, by the look of things, I'm guessing WB pirates are outnumbered by 4 more ships, shichibukai, 3 admirals, Sengoku and somewhere around 100k of marine troops; however, WB's main ships are at an advantage point.

OMG!!!!!!OMG!!!!!!!! there really are no words to discribe what this chapter is. EPIC and so much raw emotion. OMG!! i was so nearly in tears just reading that. jaw dropped and i got goosbumps.
what a chapter. ODA Sensai is just amazing. WoW. and i love the comment WB makes at the end. "my beloved son is still in One Piece" and it's nice to hear that Ace had his own crew. Spade Pirates... p.s. how cute was Luffy when he was little.

Another epic chapter this week folks
Since we've already had Usopp's, Sanji's,Franky's and Robin's cover stories there's Nami's, Zorro's, Chopper's and Brook's left. If they all take 2 weeks thats 8 week's of cover stories. Meaning this fight will possibly last for that long as well. |

I swear if one of the next chapters has a friggin HUGE pirate ship coming from the sky (possible carried by some wind fruit user) and crashing head-on on Marineford making a gigantic impact on the isle, this will be the most epic chapter of manga.
Not that it would ever happen but one can always fantasize. Last edited by Eisdrache; 2009-07-24 at 10:51. |

Damn. i never fully comprehended what angering the "ruler of the seas" really meant. I only thought the whitebeard pirates would come to rescue ace. But of course whitebeard would have a ton of new world allies(maybe silver medalist ones)given his voyages across the seas. This is definitely going to be one of the most epic fights i will ever witness in my manga reading days.

That was a really good chapter! I can't believe that were finally here and the fights about to get started!
After seeing all of these pirates I can't wait when the Straw Hat crew get back together and travels the new world. I also wonder what kind of cool powers some of these pirates from the new world have? I also wonder if that technology white beard and his crew used to get in was docter Vegapunks technology? |

Maybe someone already pointed this out already but I missed it - when Luffy first meets Ace, Luffy already has his Straw Hat and already has that scar under his left eye. In other words, Luffy had already met Shanks before meeting Ace.
I wonder if Shanks and Ace have ever met?

Most likely, yes. Ace could have met him any time during his stint as captain of the Spade pirates (or perhaps shortly after joining Whitebeard). Plus, thanks to these recent revelations, it now seems to be implied that Shanks was quite aware of Ace's lineage during his conversation with Whitebeard..... Anyways, I'm al ittle late in saying this, but that list of pirate captains and their bounties from that earlier spoiler summary were fake. It was confirmed by aohige at the AP forums (though that doesn't necessarily mean that the possibility of any of them having a 600+ million bounty doesn't exist)..... Quote:
Yeah, I pointed this out myself earlier in the thread. Anyways, after checking out the raw, my favorite design is still the guy with the lightning-shaped mustache (who I'm pretty sure is Makugai). After him is that dude with the monkey on his back (Doma?). That "Whirlpool Spider" captain guy sorta reminds me of Basil Hawkins with a bald patch, heh. And yeah, I'm definitely sure now that the old lady pirate is Lola's mom..... their faces look quite similar. I'm still crossing my fingers for at least one of these guys to be an Awakened Zoan..... Quote:
Apparently, the resin that's used to coat the ships is exclusive to Sabaody. Remember when Hachi told Luffy that the bubbles that contain the resin will pop if they leave the island (at least on the surface, anyway)? The resin obviously lasts longer underwater (since that's the only way for pirates to safely reach Merman island), but the coating most likely disappears after resurfacing at the New World. So either Whitebeard and his pirate armada rushed through Mariejoa to reach the GL's first half, or they simply took a longer path to reach Marineford..... |

Just Robin and Chopper, actually. Nami may be on a sky island, but she's technically still in the Grand Line, as well. And as for who opened the gates of justice..... y'know, I was actually tempted to say that it was Kuma, but he's clearly standing there with the other Shichibukai. So I'm going to guess that Blackbeard may have sent Lafitte to Marineford to open the gates. After all, he was able to fly straight to Mariejoa undetected, so why not the marine HQ? Oh, and I have a sneaking suspicion that neither Luffy OR Whitebeard will be the one to rescue Ace in the end..... it'll be Buggy. I can easily imagine him clumsily knocking Ace off those gallows under the eyes of all those warring pirates and marines. Hey, Buggy's already looking at a life without peace now that the marines pinned him as Luffy's acomplice in the Impel Down jailbreak, so why not have him be the one to save Roger's son from certain death?
