Yes Buggy for Shichibukai. Though that usually means to give up his pirate crew which he surely won't do as this is his main strength right now. But what makes me wonder is that Shanks and Buggy should know where One Piece is (they were members of Gold Rogers crew after all), so why don't they take it?

Or perhaps Buggy is already Pirate king and he trolls everyone (Did you know his true name is "Buggy D. Clown" )

Also seeing that the role of the Pirate King and the Will of D is tied firmly to the Lost History and Poneglyphs, Robin is essential for making Luffy the Pirate King.

She also makes sure that the crew knows what they're facing and where they're going with her extensive knowledge of people and locations.

Now that she has direct ties with the revolutionaries, her resourcefulness has probably increased many fold.

I just thought of something, is Joy Boy related to that smiley face we see throughout the series?

there is almost no point for aokiji to joint strawhat other than fanboy wish.

also it make Strawhat to powerful and make battle boring which pretty much not what Oda do

Zoro isn't the firstmate, the Strawhats have no official firstmate and thinking otherwise is just a fanboy wish. ^^

Let me make it clear, I do NOT want Aokiji to join the Strawhats. I was merely explaining that to join you do not need to have a "job".

I'm talking job wise so anything after your second paragraph is disregarded.

Also, Robin is indeed a historian and archaeologist, however on a pirate ship she would only have the job of judging the loot, which isn't that important.

Again, I was merely pointing out that you do not need a job, or an important one, to join the Strawhats

[Kallen4life]

you need Luffy's approval

I found out that Tonjit becomes a grandfather. I wonder what his children and grandchildren are like?

Poseidon, Pluton, and Uranus huh? Seems like we've been getting some sets of threes lately (3 Admirals, 3 Haki Colors, and 3 ancient weapons to name a few). Also I'm surprised that Caribou was sticking around a little longer.

Looks like what sparked the battle was Sengoku pushing for Aokiji to take the FA position, while the WG higher-ups supported Akainu instead. Therefore, it was agreed that both admirals would duel over the position, and the grueling 10-day battle resulted in the red hound's victory. The newly appointed FA spares Aokiji after the duel, but it's revealed that his current whereabouts are unknown, as he abandoned the marines.....

I knew that Akainu would take over as Fleet Admiral. It was also fitting that there would be a battle of Heat vs. Cold. I'm surprised that Akainu let Aokiji live to leave his career in the marines.

Apparently Luffy tires of his talk with Jinbei, and soon discovers Caribou, who tried to capture Shirahoshi. The swamp-man escapes, tamatebako in hand. It's at that moment when the royal guards appear, and reveal that Hody and his group have all turned into old geezers. The tamatebako was the source of the Energy Steroids.

I've suspected that Blackbeard wanted Whitebeard's position as emperor and now those suspicions are true. The fact that he and his crew are hunting down Devil Fruit users is interestingly dangerous. Makes me want to be him in order to know all the devil fruits ever known. As for the tamatebako, the energy steroids inside it must have rubbed into the box's powers.

Looks like ol' Linlin is in for a major disapointment. No doubt she and Luffy would battle each other and get Fishman Island destroyed each of them taking down half of the whole. Let me know when the next chapter is out wether it's next week or the week after that. -_-< "zzzzzzz...."

But that's only taking into consideration the possibility he manages to escape from the monster trio, Jinbei, Big Mama's men, Shira's sea king pals, and so on.

He will, don't worry. The Monster Trio will just beat their asses, retrieve back the treasure, and then you can already see how Caribou takes his revenge on them by spreading the word all over the world.

[Randrak42]

Actually...I wonder how Caribou's crew survived at all, they weren't using bubbles when we saw them floating up...

Oda could have simply told us who the winner was with no extra information. Instead, he went out of his way to tell us they were evenly matched, that the battle lasted 10 days and that both parties suffered grave injuries. To me, that means he doesn't want us to leap to the conclusion that Akainu is stronger than Aokiji. Fights between two perfectly even opponents do not always end in a stalemate. Just because Akainu happened to win (a very close win from the sound of it) this particular fight doesn't mean he's undoubtedly superior to Aokiji. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. We don't know enough to tell for sure imo.

In any case, it doesn't matter all that much now. Aokiji lost the one battle he absolutely had to win at any cost. Knowing he may have won on a better day is surely no consolation.

That's true. Akainu must hate Coby's guts quite a bit after what took place during the war. I'm sure he's still in the marines, but I doubt he was granted a big promotion.

[Kallen4life]

Akainu wins against Aokiji with extreme difficulty - that's pretty much canon now

I expected it (not the match, but this outcome for this possible match)

[Prinnydood]

What a twist! So many new things introduced in one chapter! This week has been a good week for anime. The new Bleach chapter was really good too, but this was the besttt! Not sure what to think of the situation now haha. Surprised that Aokoji and Akainu got into a fight and that Aokoji actually ended up leaving the marines. The Strawhats will probably run into both of them later down the road. Jinbie probably feels more obligated to join now because he'll need to help Luffy stay on track with what to do and all :P.

The ability hunt thingy seems kind of lame though.. you know what that reminds me of? Remember that one show.. "Heroes" it was a pretty popular American TV show and one of the main antagonists was this one guy that had the ability to steal other peoples powers, but he'd have to kill them in order to steal their powers by opening their skull and doing something with their brain or something. So in the end he was this really overpowered bad guy that no one could really do anything about and the show turned to crap and I stopped watching it, but that was around 3 years ago. Wish Oda didn't do that.. now that I think about it.. I'm like facepalming, but hopefully he'll be able to to pull it off better than the dumb people that ruined the show "Heroes"

But besides that..I can't wait for the next chapter though!

Of course Oda would mention those things so as to not sell Aokiji short. The ice man is an admiral, after all. And just because they're on the same level doesn't mean they're equal, as this fight proved to us. We don't need extra information beyond what Oda has told us.

Maybe they borrowed Luffy's idea of hiding in a giant sea creature's maw for air.

But they were like wayy way wayyy deep in the ocean and the pressure should of killed them .. That was bothering me before when it happened, but I kind of just pushed it aside. Had a feeling someone would bring that up haha

possibly, i suspect pluton is not ordinary battleship but landbattleship

or maybe it's a train which tom used part of it as base of seatrain

or maybe it's not. pluton describe as god of death hence warship. poseidon is king of sea which able to control sea and sea creature.

uranus is kinda more complicated. he pretty much one of "first" deity and father of pretty much every Greek myth creature including Titan and Greek god. so it maybe will of D it self (lol)

or it physchological warfare

what ever it is i am pretty sure it can fly

I guess Shanks is like Whitebeard. He's got no interest in One Piece. And Buggy lacks the power and navigation skills to actually get that far in Grand Line.

I still hope that Franky will turn himself into Pluton, lol. And why is the King called Neptun and not the weapon? Shouldn't the weapon be Neptun and the king be Posseidon?

neptune and poseidon basically same god. oda probably chose neptune because it name of planet just like uranus and pluto.

probably he dont want strictly to close to myth
