This scene,

http://readms.net/r/one_piece/876/4512/9

Looks like we might have a woman who's genuinely attracted to our dear Sanji. I hope they hitch up. But ... hmmm... poor Zorro. He'll have two chefs who don't like him in the crew. :(

And I find myself admiring Pedro so much now. Especially his dressing style. Cool Panther.

Link for the lazy,

That was good. Luffy was awesome!! :)

But ... I was hoping for a fight against Big Mom this arc. This .. feels like a fight that Sanji or Zorro should have done instead.

Yeah, Oda seems to really imply that Luffy & co are definitely not up to the Yonko's level for now, instead having to go through each of their direct subordinates.

That fight is going to be insane.

You've given me an idea - DOES Luffy need to be at a Yonko's level? Or will he end up finding the One Piece bypassing them all?

The way things are currently portrayed, no-one can calm down Big Mom when she's in a rage. Not even the world government (if they could, she'd never have become a yonko). Which means that we're going to have to wait for her to calm down.

Hmm.. speaking of which, what's Sanji doing now? Helping to bake the cake?

Yep. Apparently that guy is really up there on the scale of really strong guys. Can't wait for how it's gonna roll.

Wait, what is dog-tooth's power? I thought it was just seeing a bit into the future. Fight's intense - especially the crew vs Big Mom chase. But .. damn!

He's using his future sight to see what Luffy is going to do and then mimic it with his mochi power.

It's complete bullshit, like most OP abilities.

Well, Dogtooth has eaten "Mochi Mochi no Mi" so he's now able to turn his body into mochi. Practically speaking, based on his observed abilities, he's Luffy+ in addition of having a really beastly ability with Observation Haki. He's also just plain older, so he's quite experienced as a fighter.

Honestly, this is either really good or really bad for Luffy. Good, he just gets better with his powers. Bad, he's going to get curb-stomped so hard it's not even funny, because so far, Dogtooth has had no problem in exceeding Luffy's tricks.

Now that you guys mention it, I think it's been fore-shadowed. There was a point before when Capone (gangster boss) did something to mitigate dog-tooth's power. Hmm... I think it was just blocking his view. If he can't see you, he can't predict what you are going to do.

Or something like that. I have a feeling that's exactly how Luffy's going to beat him. If he can overcome that future-sight, Luffy's easily the better fighter (as far as I'm concerned). :)

I'm really hoping for Sanji to get married at the end of this arc. Or at least have a spouse/love-partner join him in the crew. Hmm.. yeah, that's a wringer. I can't quite see 3-eyes being loyal to Luffy. Not sure if Sanji's vote would be enough. Luffy might reject her on principle.

On break next week. I want that fight so damn much.

I missed the last two chapters, but Sanji and Pudding. Wow! They really so seem like a good couple. Now, I really do hope they get married for real, at the end of this arc. It will be amusing to see how Pudding reacts to Sanji flirting around. Or how he might respond, in turn.

Luffy, as a captain, you are awesome! And the crew. Go team!! :)

Chapter 882 is out:

http://readms.net/r/one_piece/882/4642/1

Luffy is having a hard time fighting, and unlike some of the other villians we've seen, Big Mom's crew might actually be giving the Straw Hats the serious attention they deserve.

It also looks like Beige and the Grema-66 might be joining forces. Or at the very least, everyone is heading towards the same destination.

We've got a jolly good fight coming our way!!

I want Luffy to be the one to take Big Mom out, but the way his current fight is going, it might be Sanji's father who does the take-down.

Think Dogtooth will be able to just instantly copy Gear Fourth like all of Luffy's other techniques?

That he's aware of it, troubles me. He MIGHT, but I'm hoping there some attack that Luffy has, that Dogtooth can't copy.

And the fight between Luffy and Dogtooth is entering it's next stage,

http://readms.net/r/one_piece/883/4660/1

Luffy claims to have figured things out. Any idea what it means? At first, I thought that Dogtooth covering his mouth was a fashion statement of sorts, but it's not looking so sure now.

Does he need to eat to power his mochi power or something?

And Luffy. :D EATING his way out of a situation!! he, he!!

Seems to me more like: you interrupt his Snack Time and he starts getting super cranky. He gets super cranky, he gets sloppy. REALLY sloppy.

That kick Luffy got in... it looks like it connected 'cause Dogtooth has started getting tunnel vision in his desire to quickly win.

Tunnel vision? Close enough, as far as I'm concerned. Crazy observation Haki!!

Nicely predicted Jimbobob5536!! :)

Wonder if Sanji's prophecy will really come true? I hope not. Our favorite Captian will make it out alive! He's going to become the King of the Pirates!! No way this will set him back!! B)

New chapter is up in Mangastream.

...god damn, talk about jumping head first into a inferno when escaping a beatdown.

No chapter next week, which is a bummer.
