Kairoseki or Seastone is used too counter Devil users, kinda like Seastone Cuffs, Seastone Net, Seastone Cage, etc etc.
Basically what he is saying is that there is bound too be Seastone bullets for a special anti-devil fruit platoon in the Marines, though its possible that Seastone bullets will never appear, he is just making a theory. Seastone can also mask the presence of a ship from Sea Kings and other sea-dwellers, and therefore had the bottom of all marine ships covered in a layer of it, which is especially useful to traverse across the Calm Belt. However, the Sea Kings can still see the ship, so it is not an absolute protection. |

Taking into account something that Oda said in an interview (about the fact that Ussop will always be the weakest SH and nobody who joins will be stronger than Luffy, Zoro or Sanji), I expect that after this arc (or during) that at the very least one of these three (if not all three) will end up becoming members of the SH: Bon Clay, Perona, and Cammy. Personally, I'd be extremely happy with any one of these three but I'd be especially interested in seeing more interaction between Perona and Ussop.
Out of everyone, Ace has an absolutely zero percent chance of joining up with his little brother (at least permanently). He is absolutely loyal to Whitebeard and, if Whitebeard does end up dead (I see him being the only person to actually die during the normal timeline. I don't see him being killed in battle but I do see him overexerting himself during the battle as he did seem to have health problems due to his age), I can see Ace taking the helms of the Whitebeard pirates in Whitebeard's name. |

Here's what i think its gonna happen:
Ace will die- Luffy has yet to "fail" something and the kind of development from actual failure is overdue and i think Ace will be the one to initiate this. Boa will not join SH- As much as the fanboy in me would love to have Boa as part of the SH, it doesn't really make sense as she is part of the Shichibukai, even if it is only by name, to protect her island. Therefore i doubt she would ever join SH, but she might be an important ally, just like Jimbei was to Ace. Dragon will probably start something- Sparked by Ace's death or not, with Iggy outta jail it makes sense for him/her to head back to Dragon, and if Dragon starts moving he/she will probably follow along. As for my take on One Piece...its probably not new: One Piece is probably not even treasure or anything, it could very well be what Luffy said: "The one with the most freedom from the Ocean is the Pirate King" And what Gol D. Roger said: "If you want it, you can have my treasure, I left it all at that one place/piece!"- Treasure is "freedom" and that one place is "the sea".

I don't why do people always think that Luffy has been successful all the way and never failed. He has failed many times, he just stood up and tried again, he is someone who just doesn't give in to failure and always stands up after his fall.
He is someone who doesn't see failure as an obstacle in the path of his goal. He sees failure as just another step to take towards success. Each time he fails, he learns from that defeat so he can come up with something to prevent another defeat. He is someone who has come so far because he has stood up from many failures. I'm also not sure why people love death so much.

When I mean fail, I'm not referring to "I fail to beat this guy once"-type of fail, if I did I would agree with you.
The failure i'm referring to is the irreversible type, such as failure to rescue someone (death or not), failure which result in a catastrophe, or failure which results in death. The last one is obviously never gonna happen to a main character or else it would end the series, but the other two is often used in shonen to "build" the main character. Luffy has fail to beat someone before, but he can always reverse the damage by beating the crap outta the enemy second or third time around. However IF Ace does die he cannot reverse the damage and will be force to "develop" in a way that hasn't happened to Luffy's character before. To a lesser extend the loss of Shank's arm can be considered to be this kind of failure, but it is so far back when Luffy does not possess the "power" he has now, I don't think it has the same effect.

Oh and, just because Luffy fails, doesn't mean someone else can't save Ace. |

its pretty important to remember that only one person has ever died in One Piece; Bellamy (i think o.o , and dont say Roger)
id like Ace to die, for Luffy development maybe, but i cant see it happening...

It's VACATION TIMEEEEE!!!

For some reason, I think Shakuyaku and Paula have some kind of family relationship.
Shakuyaku wore clothes which had a spider drawn on it and Paula's shop is named Spider's Cafe. They both own a bar/cafe and they also both smoke.
