Meh, he seems to take it rather well. Sure chopper will mix up something in a jiffy.

@Dirty Bit
 
Diseases and viruses are different from poisons. And the incident with the poison fish shows strong enough poisons can still fuck him up.

@TheDog
 
True enough. Luffy was lucky that Reiju was around for that one.

Have you any of you seen the Wano anime yet? The first two episodes have aired, and they are wonderful. I hope the new series director sticks around the anime for a long time.

@Salamenace  
Yeah, they even changed up the episode preview music. The last time that happened was at the start of the second half.

New Chapter!  
It looked as though the sky itself was cut in half when Big Mam and Kaidou clashed their swords together.

@09MurphyM  
Yeah, the same happened way, way back when Whiteabeard and Shanks clashed. Seems to be a power tier thing Oda is pulling.

@Mad Black  

 
Thought the same thing. I consider this one hell of a callback

Thought, when Luffy and Doffy clashed with their kings haki, there was also a pretty big shockwave, not nearly as big, and without weapons, and the sky didn’t split up like that. Probably means that Luffy is getting up there, but just not yet. But who knows, Luffy became a lot stronger since Dress Rosa.

So, Kaidou and Big Mam are now allies.

Crazy shit

This week’s chapter has been out.  
|| All the preparations have been made and Act 2 ends. One of the most important battles in world of One Piece is about to begin next week.||

@Salamenace
 
Stoked

@Mad Black  
I mean, he IS an unofficial 5th emperor now.
 
I’m personally waiting for him to wreck Akainu’s ****.

Thinking about it now, I wonder if we’ll get an intermission with what’s happening outside of Wano between Act 2 and Act 3.

Also, we got some backstory on Zoro’s prized sword, the wado ichimonji.

@Penguin Lagann  

 
First, let’s wait and see how his rematch with Kaido will go. ;-)  
Second, I don’t see a fight with Akainu anytime soon. (Maybe at the end of the series.)Still, I don’t see how Luffy could counter his magma powers, except dodging it, and landing a few hits with Snake man, I think Akainu is really troublesome for a brawler like Luffy, since like against Megallen, he can’t touch him without getting hurt, except he gets some kind of support.  
Third, I still think that a fight against Blackbeard is much more likely, and much more winnable for Luffy. Still a hard fight, but he won’t get burned alive as soon as he touches him. And he decked him good with a single punch before. And Luffy might be able to counter the Yami Yami no mi abilities much easier than Akainu’s Magu Magu no Mi, and since Luffy is made out of rubber, the Gura Gura powers might not even affect him that much, it is quite possible that he could absorb the shock waves at least partially. Still a combi of both powers will result in a hard hit.

Is nobody gonna talk about how Capone Bege is at Dressrosa right now?

@Scrabbleman
 
We can only wonder about his business there. Also, we’re on the cusp of another epic showdown.

@Scrabbleman  
No idea, I didn’t even recognized it at first. I guess they are going to the secret port, who knows who they will run into. A few of the Tontatas? The scrambled rest of the Doflamingo family?

956 Big News, indeed. And lots and lots of them  
||  
Something happened to King Kobra and/or Vivi. (I guess Im Sama did something to them!?)  
Sabo is supposedly dead, (don’t believe it, thought he is certainly in trouble.)  
Big News Morgan got infiltrated by CP, and is blackmailed to restrain information. He just punches the guy and moves his headquarters. (Attack, the funny little photographer was a double or spy?)  
Blackbeard is on the move, don’t know where he will go. (Probably Wano.)  
X-Drake is a spy for the marines. (Not too surprising, but still wow)  
And the Seven Samurai are now really dissolved and are being attacked by the mariens. (Those poor bastards.)  
Oh and Coby is now a Rear Admiral… (Did he jump a rank during Reverie?)||
 
Man Wano Act III is going to be really big. I thought it would take it’s time, but it seems Oda is speeding things up now, at an incredible rate I might add.

@Mad Black  
Yeah, I’m especially interested to see what exactly happened with Vivi and Sabo.
