. Kanjuro, Page One, Ulti, now Who's Who. Jinbe's final punch was a shockwave to Who's Who face, a new Ogi technique and likely a mask-breaking finisher as seen against Wadatsumi and Big Mom. I don't mind this beautiful fight continuing, but the cat already info-dumped some major lore, triggered Jinbe, got broken in hybrid and I can't see what's left other than parting words. Should WW be awakened and recover sometime later, I see a nasty CP0 execution in his future. No more Oni virus, Tama's mission finished, Luffy on standby. Assuming there's a pattern, two chapters for every Strawhat fight and a chapter for side characters like Drake and Killer is generous by post-TS standards and would give us months of non-stop action. I'll be looking forward to it all.
The hype was maybe in 1page but the whole thing was streched like 4-5pages which means that Nika has to be some sort of legend which has attributes like Fisher Tiger, Luffy n Ussop.
Seeing Nika being depicted in this chapter it also struck me as a Shandian style. The panel you posted is interesting. I hope there is more to their race, their is lots of unexplored potential. A race from before the void century, a country Roger visited, Enel that flew an arc to the moon, maybe there is a link to Uranus the ultimate weapon with a link to the sky god. That would seem to be a reason for the WG to be concerned enough to silence everyone who mention it.With a VS in the title, you know you've got a good chapter. Pay-Pay and Ulti bonding over a book in a room full of Beast plushies is too adorable. Page One having a shaved head and horns on his skull is necessary info.
The Gifters that keep on gifting. CP0 with fresh numbers updates us with the Beast Pirates down from 20k to 16k, the alliance up from 7k to 9k. Two thousand more have fallen over the last two chapters. The result of Tama's actions were 300 Smiles switching sides with the remaining 200 avoiding the dango, never attending the party, or just died like poor Sheepshead and Ginrummy. The more surprising consequence was Waiters and Pleasures switching sides with their Headliner/Gifter bosses, netting the alliance another ~2k fodder. Imagine a good boss like Briscola last chapter suddenly flips and starts hammering you -- these are some really loyal or easily intimidated goons to still follow the traitors. Can you really blame overlord Tama for this one?
Who's Who called the wrong fish Nika. To be fair, Jinbe's face was coated black this chapter. Who's Who confirms he was one those guys who got jacked in prison and busted himself out, ruling out Impel Down. He's also a prison convert who now praises the sun. The guard who spread the idea of "Sun God" Nika that frees slaves was eliminated for what CP0 calls outdated information, and now they need to take care of Who's Who for the same reason. Maybe it's not outdated so much as not WG approved. The sun god the Shandians made sacrifices to, the sun the Elbaf giants pay tribute to with 12 days of fasting, the Dawn the Minks are waiting for, and the former fishmen slaves creating the Sun Pirates. Zero chance this is all a coincidence and Oda is seeking to tie the mythologies of the OP world together. Is it Joy Boy related? Well, there is one damning piece of evidence with a sun right next to a giant upside down strawhat, all in the ancient lunar Shandian civilization discovered by the one piece God Enel:

The red and blue corner treat us to a raw but technical thriller. Good choreography with Jinbe using attacks, blocks, even a counter grip to defend. Who's Who is a little clever spamming his very effective Fang Pistol, resorting to his legs after his hands became useless. I loved the sheer brutality with WW breaking his Ancient Zoan fingers then getting his wrists snapped by the fishman grip, Jinbe earning a slash and a saber nab to the face. I honestly thought Jinbe would find a water source and soak this furball, but it looks like land lubber karate alone is good enough to deal all the damage Ulti took from Luffy/Yamato/Big Mom/Zeus/Nami. What a beast.

Oh the humiliation of being the one Smilodon born with a long tail.
Now 60 chapters into Act 3, we enter clap back season (or break season:catcry
But Still you never postedvery good coment my frend
also my Theory is that a ancient weapon uranus is a UFO spacecraft...i come up wit tis theory on my own
I don't think he was locked up in ID. My first thought was that he was locked up in Mariejois. He didn't commit any crime, he failed the task he was assigned to and I find it a bit weird that a guard is going to disappear in ID just because he shared a rather vague story. Even though ID is a governmental facility, it doesn't really seem to be the kind of place that they would keep tabs on to a degree where they know what each guard says.
This just reminded me of two scenes from the reverie:
Why I brought Impel Down because of the following reasons:
1) CP9 members are not 'part of history' to begin with. They're recruited from orphans or from families of existing members. They don't function either as public faces for the WG, that's what the Marines are for. By their very nature CP9 agents are supposed to work behind the scenes. It's kind of pointless to erase someone from history who didn't really exist in the first place. In contrast most lvl 6 prisoners were all people who were very well known, but the WG tried to erase their existence and everything they did.
