Who else thinks that we might get a flashback next chapter on how Ceaser escaped the Marines and came back to PH using DD? I would actually enjoy one after this chapter.. it was kinda.. meh.. I mean why did Sanji and Tashigi take up half of the chapter? Why couldnt we get two pages on their exploits? Luffy found Momonsuke so there's no real need for them to keep on searching for him (Horray!) This just adds on to the assumption that Kinemon could join the crew along with his son, I think this could also lead into a flashback on how the Dragons affect the people of Wano Country. Ceaser also seems to be more cunning than strong -_- Watch B5 and Buffalo show up and save him after Luffy begins to fight him for a third time.. Thus Oda trolls us and makes us wait for whenever Ceaser will appear again (in Dressrossa with DD?)

Now that you bring it up, it would make a lot of sense for Ceaser to be rescued like that and brought back to Dressrossa. It would give the Straw Hats a good reason to go there and give Doflamingo the ***-kicking he deserves (or at least the one he deserves according to Sanji. Seriously, forget the "Underworld Broker" title. He's already well known for being the P.I.M.P that he is).

Really loved the interaction between Luffy and Momonosuke. So Momonosuke avoid the poison due to his stubborn pride and the other children only have five more years if they keep on the candies. Enjoyed the cameos of everyone else, especially of Smoker getting the edge on Vergo. Good chapter.

[ConUxie223]

Momonsuke is a devil fruit user like his dad?.. So does that mean that he can become a boy again with the help of Chopper? Or maybe the "man-made" fruits have a defect that they dont have the same properties as the normal fruits.. So maybe Momo will remain a Dragon forever? And my hunch is that CC also made Smiley's fruit considering that he was created right after Ceaser left Marine Headquaters he couldnt have had time to find a fruit and feed it to the remains of PH.. Also, CC's ability intrigues me.. Could the SAD be a really powerful weapon that can take away a person's DF power? And with if BB finds out a person can make a DF.. Will he try to attain Ceaser to use him to make him an army of DF users?.. Let me tell you PH has finally caught my attention once again!

And... Momo saw DD in a hallucination.. Yeah.. Something tells me that Kinemon and Momo arent going anywhere until all of this DD stuff is settled, seeing how Samurai's hold powerful grudges. And with Law possibly being involved in this DD Saga we should have some fun islands before the Big Mom War Saga. Especially the kicking of DD's butt.

And my hunch is that CC also made Smiley's fruit considering that he was created right after Ceaser left Marine Headquaters he couldnt have had time to find a fruit and feed it to the remains of PH..

Odds are, if that was the case, then the fruit Momonosuke ate was probably the prototype for Smiley's, as both of them are shaped like apples.

Could the SAD be a really powerful weapon that can take away a person's DF power?

Doubt it, the ability to take away/cancel a DF power belongs to the Yami-Yami fruit, which we all know Blackbeard has eaten. So unless Caesar took samples of Blackbeard or experimented on him, I honestly doubt it.

[TsukiMirage]

The Yami-Yami fruit takes away another DF ability, but it doesn't cancel them. The seastone can, and Caesar would have access to that, so I could see him creating such a weapon.

[ConUxie223]

Blackbeard's fruit has not been explained much at all.. And we dont know if any other fruit could do the same thing he can do if not make it more powerful.. And CC has just created these fruits, something we all thought was impossible- I wouldnt be very shocked if he made a machine that allows him to take away a DF users abilities permanently, and thats why it would make a mess of the NW with all of the DF users there. I could see BB wanting that by the end of the series, or even DD when the time comes for the clash with him trying to use it as a last resort against Luffy. And then I believe the alternative reason Law wanted the SAD was so that he could take away a Yonko's DF abilities and maybe his "personal agenda" was to take away DD's.

Luffy and Momo's interactions was some of the best parts of the chapter, I hope we get more ^

Whats up between Dof and Momo though? Is the guy going to controll people maybe? To fight Luffy now? That'd be fun.

Looking forward to Zoro V.S Monet, see some of he can do now, so far hes just been relaxing now time to get serious.

Oh HA Both Zoro and Luffy getting ready to take out the trash bum bum bum.

Smoker V.S Vergo in the anime hopefully be ten times better so far seems like hes doing a better job on him than Sanji did but still.

Speaking of Sanji, arc is making me like him more and more.

Over all, fun chapter and UGH More waiting ><

Okay here is what will most likely go down.

Luffy with Momo in tow will arrive at the room to the exit. The children will be suppressed by the remaining strawhats and ushered into the room along with the other strawhats to exit. Zoro will defeat Monet in the upcoming chapters. Having said this why don't they just give the kids the drugs they will cooperate to leave then for the next day or two by which it will be too late for them to get more candy. So everyone minus Law and Smoker will wind up in the gas chamber beneath Vegapunk's old office. Momo will reveal that there is a room above them they will bust the ceiling and enter the room. Smoker will have defeated Vergo by the time this occurs. He may or may not escape in the long run. I predict this arc will end with a general retreat by P.H. forces to Dress Rosa. Possibly Monet and Vergo will go along, but I do not see Caesar being defeated. He along with Donflamingo's two henchmen will retreat to Dress Rosa. The odds of Vergo escaping are higher then Monet's. I would expect the company of Law, Momo, and his dad with the straw hats to dress rosa. Smoker and Tashigi will likely take the kids and run. I doubt Smoker will continue to Dress Rosa.

The next arc will be Dress Rosa. The only other possibility is Wano county. It is too early for Big Mama arc. So ridicule by predictions.

[TsukiMirage]

There's little chance Caesar's gonna get away without being defeated here. He's done way to much and has crossed to many people. And Law seems to have no intentions of confronting Doflamingo.

[lolipiece]

Huh. I was expecting Monet to have a Paramecia-class Fruit.

Nice to see a female with a Logia.

No way, Luffy's way to ticked off now to allow this. Some thing tells me hey'll get crushed bad by the end of this arc than get killed by Dof =]

[TsukiMirage]

I could see Doflamingo killing Caesar in the end, which would still allow him to get what Caesar made for him while allowing the event with him to be concluded.

[lolipiece]

My God. Monet is terrifying!

Ooooh. Will Tashigi finally be useful here?

[Grim Heaper]

My God. Monet is terrifying!

Amen to that. Now there's a reason for not wanting her on the SH.

Ooooh, swordsman tag battle, this is gonna be fun!

Also, Sanji leading the Marines and having them make fun of Zoro, hah!

[ConUxie223]

If you dont know her story dont judge her.. If you mean that she can turn into that monster the same could be said about Robin when we first saw her in Alabatsa when she was being portrayed as a "monster".

I loved this chapter just because the focus Monet got I wonder if the reason she is gets so angry about them taking away the kids and calling them "precious treasures" is because someone took away her child and DD is using that to his advantage by sending her to PH and getting attached to the kids so much her past reacts with her emotions and she wont let anyone take the kids away now. Just saying.. We dont know her story, and for some reason I shed a tear out of nowhere when she screamed at them to not take the kids away.. I could still see her in the SH's- and that awesome monster technique she uses would go well with Chopper in his "Monster Point" and her ice would go well with Brook and Sanji (Kinemon?)

Loved Nami this chapter, wish she would just have a freaking fight already :/ "Heat Egg" looks like the more powerful form of a heat ball so maybe she has a "Cool Egg" and some other moves we'll see soon? Hmm.. And Tashigi's here -_- I used to love her... Until I realized that every fight she gets in against a main enemy she fails, so I can see her continuing this record by losing against Monet (after putting up a reasonable fight of course) and Sanji persisting that Zoro doesnt hurt her so that blocks him from really "clashing" with her. In all truth, the swordsmen thing will most likely be overused in Wano Country so lets save it for there.. Please..

[TsukiMirage]

Continue to enjoy Monet. Shame Zoro and her couldn't have a real exchange before Tashigi showed up, but I'm still expecting a good fight. Real nice chapter.

[BlueDragonfangirl]

Wow., fun chapter.
Though, I was hoping we'd get an actual fight btween Zoro and Monet, it seems hes having a hard time fighting Monet for some reason. My theorys are;

A. He can't controll his haki yet

B. Hes like Sanji, has a hard time fighting woman. This was his first fight against a girl?? Just doesn't seem his style, I always thought he'd be like Luffy doesn't care if she is one or not yah know? I hope its the other.

Monet is crazy, I'm liking her. Would love it if she joined the crew but.

Was nice seeing Nami and Robin get some action in.

Too bad, no Luffy or Momo this weeks chapter. Hopefully next chapter will be about them.

[Grim Heaper]

I just realized this but it seems that Monet scared Chopper so much that his antlers came off his head.

That happened before, actually.

Way back in Skypeia back when Chopper saw Holy.
