I have a question. I didn't really notice this until I was watching the latest episode of the anime.

Was Hina promoted to a Vice-Admiral? She seems to be wearing the coat of a Vice-Admiral.

A lot of marine personnel wear those coats. But to answer your question, Hina hasn't been promoted to a Vice-Admiral.

Spoiler for manga...maybe...I'm not sure:

I have a question concerning the revolutionaries.What exactly is there goal? I must have missed that part in the story. I know that they try to get rid of all the injustice in the world. At least that's what Dragon implied in the latest flashback arc when he said "I don't have the power to change the world, yet". But how exactly are the trying to achieve that - taking down the gouvernment? Are they striving for a lawless world, or do they want to become the gouvernment themselves?

Spoiler:

Generally, when one seeks to overthrow the government, they usually replace it with a new one. The Revolutionaries, should they succeed, would no doubt help stabilize things after.

Spoiler for Reply:

The revolutionaries just oppose the current World Government's corrupted ways an believe the world can be governed in a more responsible way.

If they have any ulterior motive to oppose them besides that, it hasn't been revealed.

Okay, then I guess concrete plans haven't been mentioned yet.

So i was re-reading Parts of arcs and so on. And in Chapter 221 Page 13-14, that double page; was it ever explained what those are. If not i hope Oda will tell later. Cause i completely forgot about those until i re-read it.

Those are the shadows of the Shandians, or residents of Skypeia, they look huge because the shadow is cast from a very high altitude.

Just like how Luffy casted a giant shadow after defeating Enel and sounding the bell, to let Mountblanc Cricket know that the island exists.

[Shiroth]

^& just to add to that, it was explained in the manga.

Spoiler for Chapter 594:

Has it ever been revealed where the Devil's Fruits are from? Because I was thinking that they may grow on certain islands in the new world. Perhaps this would explain the lightning island and the island that sucked up Capone's ship.

Spoiler for Devil Fruits:

According to one piece wikipedia( http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Devil_Fruit )

Devil Fruits are said to be the fruits of the Sea Devil and that the secret to their power is hidden in the Grand Line. Because encounters with them are rare (especially outside the Grand Line) a number of rumors about them have risen making it difficult to tell whether some things are fact or fiction.

Nothing yet known whether they grow on a tree or just pop up out of nowhere.

Hi guys and gals. I'm wondering if you can help me out with this question: Do you know of any group or singer besides Tomato Cube that sang the 3rd ending song "Watashi ga Iru yo" ? A while back I swear I heard the song sung by a different woman, and I'm trying to track that version down. Does anyone know anything about this, or is it just my own imagination?

Thanks!

[paradox13]

Its just your own imagination.

Spoiler for Mr. 3:

I was wondering, if a DF user touches seastone then they lose their powers, so then when Mr. 3 makes his wax keys for the cells at impel down, when he sticks his finger/key into the hole, wouldn't he lose his power then?

Also, if the Navy has Seastone coated ships, couldn't they just sail through the calm belt and get to Raftael? What about DF users who can fly such as Marco or Laffite, couldn't they just fly to Raftael?

And if Reverse Mountain is the start of the Grand Line, if one were to go up it but going the opposite direction that teh Strawhats took, would that take them to Raftael?

Just a couple questions I had xD

Good question actually. If the key was just generated from wax and wasn't connected to his finger or such I could understand, but from what you said it seems like a minor plot-hole...

Also, if the Navy has Seastone coated ships, couldn't they just sail through the calm belt and get to Raftael? What about DF users who can fly such as Marco or Laffite, couldn't they just fly to Raftael?

It's been said there's not much Marine activity in the New World and it's a place dominated by pirate crews, so it shouldn't really matter if the Marines could get to Raftel or not. Marco and Lafitte aren't the captains of the crew, so flying straight there would be meaningless. It's their captains who desire to be pirate king, not them. Plus who can say Raftel dosen't have a way of preventing access by air?

And if Reverse Mountain is the start of the Grand Line, if one were to go up it but going the opposite direction that teh Strawhats took, would that take them to Raftael?

There is only one channel on Reverse Mountain that goes down, which leads to where Laboon and Crocus are. The other 4 channels flow up the mountain from North, South, West and East Blue.

Spoiler for mr 3:

no.
one thing that has been established about DF powers is that df users weaken and cannot use their power when they touch seastone. but also know that they don't lose their properties. such as when luffy was underwater he could still stretch. to clarify wax that is created such as candle lock will not dissipate when you slap seastone cuffs on him. so as long as mr3 just channels only wax into the key hole with out touching it with his hand he should be to create the correct wax key for the key hole.

For Mr.3, his body is made of wax, but he can also make Wax extensions of his body, such as the wax armor. It wasn't a part of his body. He was wearing it. The keys he made were just keys made of his strong wax. It doesn't mater that the wax was made from Devil Fruit powers.

No one really knows yet what prevents people from entering Raftel. It's not about Sea Kings. There is something else. Maybe it's a mysterious fog. If you enter and don't know some trick you always end up getting lost, or some kind of powerful storm that keeps people out.
Something prevents people from landing on the island.

Long ago, Gold Roger offered to tell Whitebeard how to get in Raftel, but Whitebeard refused.
