Anyone STILL think Law didn't know the Strawhats were here? Anyway, it seems like Law shrunk the room to surround Smoker's heart. That (combined with haki I'm guessing) allowed him to take it just as Smoker couldn't see him, as he was behind the boulder. What a good chapter though. It will be interesting to see how Law reacts to Luffy. Oda really does like ending chapters on cliffhangers doesn't he?

Smoker lost credibility.
He has no more significance to me. He just lost everything. His crew, his heart, his ship. He can't even call for backup. Why would Luffy save his ass just to get chased by him again? Smoker is better of dying on this island. |

Damn, Law is one badass SOB! He just took Smoker's heart, frozen inside an ice cube and bam, the fight is over...
I don't know if even Luffy could defend against that trick... Brook and Robin seem best suited against Law now - one can reassemble his body at will and has no organs that can be stolen, while the other can fight from outside the Room with body doubles. Poor Sanji can't catch a break - he's gonna be devastated when he sees his new wanted poster - maybe he should just surrender himself to the Marines and ask for a good photo shoot . |

Cheap win? Certainly not, it's called strategy. Only people that think "Bashing eachother's brains out style" is the best fight believes it was "cheap". Law used his skills and the terrain much more effectively than Smoker who mainly relied on his weapon and skill alone. This smart style of fighting is definitely my favourite and most entertaining.
Plus yea, pirate! So what if it is "cheap". I do wonder how Law would do against Luffy's speed though. As we saw, he needs to cut or aim to use his abilities directly on someone and Luffy might be too fast for him. Guess we'll wait and see (doubt they will fight soon). Oh and something that caught my attention. Law didn't take Nami, Sanji, Franky and Chopper's hearts. He could have easily done that like he did with smoker but instead he just switched them around. This tells me that Law had no intention of even harming the Strawhats. I don't know why but I don't feel like Law is a bad guy (well amongst pirates) and believe he might be a possible ally later. |

Even though Smoker is Logia, the smoke is still made up of his body parts. Its no surprise that his heart can be stolen and especially since its ejected out of his body, Smoker can't change his heart into smoke.

Mind you, I still didn't see any indication that Law was aware of them prior to Smoker's arrival. Hell, the fact that "M" didn't even know who the intruders were at first lends credibility to the possibility that Law didn't know they were there until Smoker told him (and, y'know, actually saw them with his own eyes ). But that's enough of that silly argument, methinks..... Anyways, fun chapter. I do admit that it's a little disappointing to see Smoker job to Law, but hey, THIS is the level of pirates in the New World. People may call out Law as being "cheap" or whatever, but as was already mentioned, pirates ain't gonna play fair. I also wouldn't go so far as to say that Smoker's lost credibility as a character since he fought against someone with a pretty broken DF power in the first place (more broken than his, anyway) in the first place. Oh, and I also found it kinda amusing that once again his seastone jutte proved worthless in a fight. Also, I like how we see M has a face, even if he's in his gooey/liquidy state. At least we've got confirmation that he's indeed in cahoots with Law, and that the centaurs are indeed his servants, as well (I also found it quite interesting that the dragon Zoro slayed was created by Vegapunk). As for the Straw-Hats' mugshots in the newspaper, they weren't actually confirmed to be bounty posters, but I do imagine that those pics will most likely be used for their new posters once the rest of the crew gets their inevitable bounty hike.....

I doubt it matters whether or not Robin can create a thousand or even a million hearts if only stabbing ONE of them will kill her. Remember, anything her duplicated limbs feels gets affected by the base body, as well..... |

thought the reason for law to steal law heart is because he to stop him to investigate the island (and probably stop them to capture straw hat). maybe law put heart back to him when his business on island finish

On another note im surprised at how many ppl were sure that Law could not win against smoker. I personally was rooting for Law but had no doubt in my mind that Smoker could come out the winner. Guess what im trying to say is i saw the two as evenly matched. But man did Law prove even more how bad ass he is, ever since i saw his ability and personality Law been one of my top 5 fav. and now he may be gunning for my number 1. Go Law cant w8 to see what u been planning and ur fight with Luffy. |

While that COULD be true, that still wouldn't explain other guys like Pekoms (who, despite being a talking lion, was revealed to be a turtle zoan) and Eilwan/Ailwan (the walrus pirate captain from the war arc). So as I mentioned in a past thread, I think there's basically a race of non-zoan furries that exist in the OP world..... |
