Howdy, folks! Ready for some spoilers? Well, here's some courtesy of T and ohana (with aohige translating the initial summary.... apparently, that's the last one he'll be able to do due to a new job. Best of luck, man!):
-Chapter title is "The hat of a hero". Ministory features Kokoro.
-Everyone is overjoyed that Shirley's prophecy didn't come to pass. Meanwhile, Shirahoshi says her goodbyes to the crew and one of the ministers gives Nami a new type of Log Pose, which has 3 needles on it. It's explained that it takes half a day for a new log to be set, and the danger of the next island depends on how erratic the needle's movements are. Naturally, Luffy wants to go to the location with the craziest movements. :p
-The crew prepares to set sail, and say their farewells to the merfolk. Shira wants Luffy to take her to a forest on the surface, and he and the crew promise her that they'll take her when they next meet, and point their fingers to the air in a Vivi-syle sendoff. He then says that he's looking forward to meeting Shanks, and finally sets out for the New World....
Well, we finally reached that point..... the crew's finally on their way to the NW. And it looks like neither Shira nor Jinbei accompanied the crew (sorry, Adan and all you others!). And yeah, no island destruction, either.
Well now, I wonder which will be the first island they'll go to? Maybe it'll end up being the Wano country or that thunder island that Urouge visited or something. Either way, I can't wait! :D
