But then that can lead to does he have full control of the strong or only people that he is stonger then. Sooo if he trys to attach someone who strong willed or has haki how long would his control on them last plus he does seem to look defenceless while in the jacket form soo they or somelse could easly push the jacket adside or blast it away. Plus given that its a jacket could this mean it has the same weakness like Buggy DF where it can be tied up or stuffed into a box and then dropped into the ocean?

SeanQ · 2013-07-31, 15:47

I don't think he can just attach himself to whoever he wants ... person has to actually pick him up and put him on ... and why would Don Chinjao need his assistance in winning the tournament anyways?

Why does Don Chinjao have the number 12 tattooed on his forehead?

Well, while you guys are probably right, it DOES look like Kelly can at least move around while he's in jacket form, so I sorta figured that maybe he can "steal" a person's body by force if the opportunity presents himself. Hence why I suggested that he could have stolen the Don's body (though that does leave the question of who would be the actual tourney winner between the two of them since they'd be fused together)......

That was explained last chapter: He was the 12th commander of Kano country's Happou navy. Also note that Sai, the current commander, has the number 13 tattooed on his stomach, as proof that he's the Don's successor. It makes me all the more interested in learning more about Kano and the Chinjao family, personally.

finally... two fighters left...

clash of two conqueror hakis will be interesting

GreyZone · 2013-07-31, 22:26

I've got the feeling that the whole tournement was just done by Oda to help the anime get "filler" or "stretch" material. The anime is already more than half done with the punk hazard arc, so it may become hard to maintain the distance.

AdventSleeper · 2013-07-31, 22:35

Fun chapter. Characters introduced and defeated so quickly.

As for the mini-story. Poor Grandma

Oh, and BTW:

Funny that the part in bold was mentioned, because an interesting theory I've seen being thrown around was that Garp probably stole the Don's lover or daughter in the past, who eventually became Luffy's grandmother. If that really is the case, then that would most certainly explain Chinjao's hatred towards the Monkey D. bloodline......

I am sure there is a limitation to the user. First he need to wear himself to powerful user is not easily done. Second, the user might beat him down or struggle him out of the halfway wearing jacket. Somehow I think he could only overpowered lower level user than himself.

ri0 · 2013-08-01, 03:37

This chapter got me thinking of how much progress Luffy made during these past two years.
Of course there was a lot of fodder in this tournament. Nevertheless those are guys who at least made a name in the New World for themselves. One of those, the leader of a country's naval force was easily pushed out of the ring by Luffy with a single, by the looks of it, Gear 2nd boosted kick.
But the main action starts now with the fight against a profound Haki user. That got me really, really excited since I'm hoping to see how much Luffy closed the gap to the top tiers.

I think Ango set his ambitions a little bit too high, whereas an open tournament battle propably isn't the right place to judge the strength of a self proclaimed sniper. Makes me wonder where the Lvl 6ers are hiding anyway.

grey_1960 · 2013-08-01, 05:57

Chapter 716
That was a good chapter. Unique fighters in this arch. Shame Ideo was kicked out really quick but the inevitable was bound to happen. I wonder how much Luffy is holding back in this tournament? He has not used his rubber fruit this whole tournament (Except for the immunity to blunt force which is passive and his gear 2). I don't think this fight will be a close for Don Chinjao.

adjusting
If Luffy gets really good with armor haki he can imbue enough haki into his rubber to were his Immunity to blunt force will be useful again against haki users. Kinda like Akainu with Vista and Marco.

Bakaizer · 2013-08-01, 20:59

expect luffy to have a new technique or gear for this battle

and this is just one block. hopefully in the other blocks there are other powerful people like one that can use mythical zoans

Also, as awesome as the Luffy/Chinjao stuff sounds, it also makes me rather apprehensive because this is just gonna open up yet another can of worms as far as the power debates are concerned.....

Edit: Damn, Panda was faster than usual this time.....

It's not like Jean Ango is anyone important. He's just fodder. The only escapee's he caught were the weak fodder ones. He's insignificant. He didn't affect anything in the slightest.

marvelB · 2013-08-02, 00:40

^Insignificant to the plot as a whole? I agree. Doesn't mean I find him any less interesting, though. Heck, I'm just glad we got to see more named bounty hunters appear, whether they be "fodder" or not. And I happen to really like Ango's character design, so there's that, too.

That being said, I think the fact that he was aware of something that the WG hushed up before the time skip would give him some modicum of relevance, don't you think?

Rawrz · 2013-08-02, 02:36

Within each new chapter, Chinjao's design reminds me more of Jinpachi Mishima from Tekken. Especially when he is berserked.

And about Jean Argo, I think only hope of seeing him ever again lies within a Buggy cover story where he is getting hunted by Jean.

noktown · 2013-08-02, 09:04

I hope no one interferes with the fight,Luffy should take him 1 on 1.

ziggi92 · 2013-08-02, 09:32

Interesting chapter with great fights.

I do wonder who in luffy crew will get the fire devil fruit personally I think it is going to be

Sanji for some reason but I think it would kind of ironic if Usopp would get one most powerful

Devil fruit in the world.

It's basically oihagi spelled backwards in Japanese.

Oihagi is a looter who attacks others and take their stuff.
Which is what Jean Ango does.

Thanks that make hell a lot more sense, it never crossed the me that it is could a name for the move. Though even knowing that, withe my level of Japanese, I still would know the meaning of it...

Blackbeard D. Kuma · 2013-08-02, 19:02

I too share marvelB's sentiments on the quick loss of Jean Ango (and the other notable contestants for that matter, as well), but this arc has a lot to cover and thus a quick but intense progression is appropriate. We don't want this tournament dragging out for too long, and clearly Oda feels the same way. Awesome chapter and awesome fights. Also, is there a chapter next week or not?
