I'm easily leaning towards the idea of Luffy's next bounty to be 556 it makes a lot sense to me.
HA! You're gonna be wrong like Rinnemaki. :p All of Luffy's bounties have been definite numbers.

1) 30 Million beri
2) 100 Million beri
3) 300 Million beri
4) 400 Million beri

Judging by that pattern, Luffy's next bounty cannot. I repeat cannot be 556 million beri. U_U

Figured it out Lol. I love a good old mystery puzzle ;)

- Luffy’s number during the Dressrosa arc's tournament is 0556.
- Luffy was born on May 05, so that explains the “05″ part,
- 5-6 is actually go-mu in japanese, which makes sense coz Luffy is rubber (gomu),
- So that explains the “56″ part. Lucy = rushi (in japanese pronunciation), to honor Master Roshi (Luffy is also disguised, just like Master Roshi was)

Two of the best anime ever created collide !!

No offense, but I'm getting kinda tired of these threads of yours or more precise the way you explain yourself. It's the same as in the Reverie thread where you give a complete pointless, very inaccurate calculation just to say something everyone already knew.

Can there be a hidden meaning behind his number? Of course, Oda does stuff like that all the time, but I find your reasoning again extremely crude and then you act like you somehow solved it completely, 100% guarantee it's right, you love a good riddle while it's still very possible that there might be no riddle at all. That it's just a random number is still a possibility.

Luffy was born on the 5th of May or with other words the 5th day of the 5th month, two 5's. So there you can already find a wrench blocking your reasoning as the two 5's are then taken. Then what about the 6? It might just be an additional pun, but why does he do that only at the end? But why is there only one zero, if it's the day and month, shouldn't there be two zero's? But why would he only do the day and not the month or only the month and not the day? And what does his date of birth have directly to do with his DF ability? Why is there even a zero at all? Normally you start with one and then count upwards. My point is that this is so extremely random, that if you are going to search the entire manga, you probably can find countless of reasons to explain the usage of these numbers and then you start here proclaiming you solved it. The reason might even be not related to OP and be the favourite number of his wive or something.

You might be correct, but the chance that you are not only off the mark, but that you do not even approach it remotely is not small either. At least just deposit this as being a possibility and not that this is somehow a finished business and that the only thing you still need is the formality of having it confirmed.

And that Lucy = Roushi is not something you made up, it's nothing new either. That has been going around from the moment people started the whole thing of Hiro and Oda are mocking each other. I myself mentioned it already a few times on NB. I personally strongly believe that Oda intentionally did this as he admitted himself he was strongly influenced by Dragonball and master Roushi himself once participated in Goku's first MA tournament, disguising himself as a younger person named Jackie Chan/Chun (not really sure anymore of the name). Now Luffy does the exact opposite, disguising himself as an old man called Lucy/Roushi. You did not make that up and it has also no relevance to these numbers whatsoever.

The only things I see you do lately is just copy pasting stuff other people made =/

lol,lucy thing was sort of a little you know with hiro mashima,creater of ft,if i were to believe the news.
lucy is a character of fairy tail. It seems there were some thing going b/w oda and mashima,that when mashima started tournament in ft,few weeks later oda started the tournament in onepiece and named luffy-lucy.
That's an urban legend, a rumor that was made by people who saw some shallow resemblances between the current FT and OP arcs, but that has NEVER been proven nor admitted by anyone. This is also the origin of the whole Lucy = Roushi stuff as one of the most used arguments was that Oda's Lucy referred to Hiro's Lucy and to invalidate that people pointed the Roushi stuff out.

The number '0556' is a parallel actually. We all know it is the number he's using to participate in the contest to win over his brother's fruit and will. But not many people are aware that it is also the number of the chapter he arrived at Marineford to save his brother from execution.
This makes much more sense than this entire gomu and birthday thing. The only thing that's still iffy is the first zero, but maybe that's how they count participants in Japan.

It could also be that Oda is hinting that the series will reach at least 1000 chapters, even though he's been hinting at that for ages now. I guess we really won't know for sure without Oda confirming it.

this is like an illuminati cryptic message, people look so much into something that the basic rule of large numbers kicks in and they find some weird coincidence about something and than not only think it was intentional but blow it way out of proportions

but the weird thing would be if there were no coincidences in a large amount of data

There is no pattern to Luffy's bounty increases. What do you even mean by a "Definite Number"?
