I think it about time luffy lose the whole rookie thing , yeah we know he just started out but luffy has done crazy stuff that not even long time pirates would try.
I hope after the war the people in OP world won't just be calling him a rookie but some who going after being PK. After what luffy has done i want him to be fear by even pirates |

There were duels and 7-on-7 duels, there were fights, and now we get a battle. The revolutionaries and the WG might be fighting a war over in the New World, or an Emperor VS the WG could have escalated into a war if Whites didn't choose to skip to the end in his submarine ship. But this is still a battle. |

Actually, the chance of Dragon and his army appearing is fairly high now.
I mean, this is the best opportunity to take out the Marines as part of the Revolutionary army. Or perhaps after this war, when the Marines are completely exhausted. |

It is a war , do you know meaning of the word. They have been no duels so far in this battle so far. The War is WB and friends vs the marines and warlords. The WG declared war on the WB pirates as soon as they took ace and the battle is being fought. Unless you can give a reason why it is not a war or should not be considered as a war . It should be noted that meaning and term of war has change during history. War 2000 years before is not same as now . And 500 years from now it won't be the same. Then they are other version of war proxy wars , Cold war etc etc Last edited by andy; 2009-09-23 at 11:34. |

^-Made me LOL.
Well, having a submarine fleet has very much been a game-breaking power. Anyway, I've been wondering why Roger's and Ace's executions were handled so differently. Ace's is held at no less than the Marine HQ, and yet this still does not protect it from being interrupted. Roger's execution was open to the public on a normal island and yet it ended without an interruption. By the way, anyone have a clue why Ace had a formal execution either since it apparently was never intended to be open to the public? If you do please tell me. |

The execution was formal to lure WB and friends to ace execution site to give the WG a upper hand. It was also to show the WG is still in control . As for Gol D. Roger i think it it was open because they knew no one was going to come and save him ,he did turn him self in . Unlike WB who is going to come for Ace. Also roger gave orders for the crew to disband so he was saying don't try to save him just go and live out your lives. Or maybe they knew he was sick and made no sense trying to save him , they wanted to him to live out his last bit of his life in style. |

I thought it was pretty obvious from the get-go that Ace's execution was meant to be the bait to lure out Whitebeard. For too long the government has been made out to be a bunch of fools (since Roger's execution, more accurately) so yeah, their victory in this war is meant to prove to the world that WG are the ones calling the shots, not the pirates. That's why I still believe that even if Ace doesn't die, Whitebeard will. In a way, you could say that he's the embodiment of the current age of piracy now that Roger's gone. As I've said in several past threads, his death would literally symbolize the end of the current era, and will make way for the new age......

Roger was executed in his home town of Logue Town. It wasn't anything like this. |

I don't disagree that Ace's death would be highly beneficial to the government as well considering his background, but frankly, the WG would be crazy to not use this opportunity to eliminate as many of their enemies as possible. It would be like killing several birds with one stone, you know....? |

it does not seem like it now but, WB could give himself up kind of like Roger did. he does seem like the type to give his own life insted of his crew. if the pirates do get overpowred and RA does not show up, or they do and it makes no difference, to save his crew's life as well as everyone else there he would let WG have a public execution so that they could show off like with Roger.

it was different with roger cause he had achived his goal. but, we know that with WB it is a family, and the fact taht he was hooked up to all of those tubes and everything. that makes a difference. he could be kind of like roger in that aspect, dying. we don't know.
i'm just putting that out as a theory, that WB giving himself up to save evryone is sort of poetic. him dying for his crew. it would be a good ending and sad as well. if they are in a bind like WG cornering them WB is experienced enough to know when his time is up. it would need to be extreame cercumstances for this to happen but, it could. it went wrong with Roger because Roger made it taht way. he had everything and then to make a new age he did what he did. now the new pirate age is there and evryone is working towards that.

^^i highely doubt taht dragon is responsible for the surrent situtation that the SH are in. i think Kuma did what he could out of a bad situtation. and at best it would seem that Dragon would seperate them because he knew what was coming. maybe did not want to get luffy involved. he can lose his life here. a fatherly thing to do.

Interesting chapter, but man the short length and weak wait for each chapter is killer. Going to be quite awhile for something awesome to really happen and for all this to end so when can see what happens after the dust settles. All secretes out now... things should be really interesting in the future.

well i'm not condoning what he did. but, IMHO i think he did what he did to save all of them, he did the best out of the situtation that was in front of him, they were all going to die or go to prison, they were overpowred and were not at all ready for what was happening. he did what he did to save them. and in the process he did send them all to points where they could discover new things in terms of story as well as power ups.
