Hey we see Pound again!

Also Pero makes new Candy arm and talks shit, don't know about what.

Pero makes the water candy for Big Mom to step on.

And the connection to Pudding and Lola grows deeper, wonder exactly why she was keeping her seat open especially with Pound back.

Pero still going strong.

If Daifuku and Oven were in the mirror world, we would have seen them, they are off somewhere else.
 
Okay, Pudding rolling herself in Rabian is pretty cute.
Perospero living up to Big Mom's genes. Dude just doesn't stay down.
Carrot in the crow's nest, Jinbe monitoring the current, people are going to be talking about this.
Katakuri is the monster we hoped he'd be. I'm guessing Gear 4th's unpredictable mov...no wait, he can read the future. Shit, Katakuri is OP.

He might not be able to keep up with Gear 4's speed or it's power. I feel like this chapter was yelling " he can't do Gear 4" since he said "anything you can do I can do better."

Maybe Pudding is so reverent towards Lola because Lola took the blame for the failed Loki marriage (fitting the theory that Loki originally wanted Pudding, not Lola).

I never got the angle why Loki would want Pudding though.

I know there's that line of bring me a real prince, but i just see that as Pudding roasting Sanji still atm.

She's pretty and has the potential to unlock the powers of the 3-eyed clan. Which, if they really can help read poneglyphs, would make Pudding almost as valuable as Robin.

Wasn't Pudding a little kid when Lola ran away? Yep, just checked it. Why would Loki be interested in a little kid

This is the first time in a while Luffy has been dominated in straight power.
This arc is a fantastic setup for the battle against Kaido. How the heck are the Strawhats going to beat the "Strongest Creature in the World", if Luffy straight out loses fights against the subordinates of another Yonko?

I'd take Lola over Sai's fiancee
 
Katakuri has cheat code see into future and out doing luffy attacks.
Still we know luffy not at full power since he has not used gear 4 yet .
Good chapter .
 
So... awakening?

And seeing as we haven't flash forward to the baking process we are going to see some fights on the sea. Strawhats + Thousand Sunny vs Big Mom? Gaon cannon anyone?

Pudding was a kid when all this shit happened though.
Hmm. Forgot how long ago that was supposed to game occurred. Her eye powers are still valuable but the marriage context would be way too creepy.

Maybe it really is just as simple as Pudding admiring Lola's freedom? Hmm
 
Damn, good chapter. Pedro better be dead. The Jinbe speech always means they're dead.

Reminding us of Dogtooth's bounty was a pretty effective way of upping the stakes I think. Seems like Luffy's gonna have to eat him after all.

Dope chapter. Their reactions to Pedro's death continues to lead me to believe... Well, y'all already know how I feel about whether he's alive or not. Carrot's face is sad as hell, Chopper looks the same when he cries, Brook is understandably sad due to hanging out with him the longest aside from Carrot, and Nami's face is pretty interesting, seeing as how she's trying to remain tough for her friends and hold back the tears.

Good thing we have Jinbe to snap them out of it.

Also I see Carrot's temporarily taking the role of being their scout... Interesting. ;D

I did not predict that Perospero would be utilized as a way to keep Big Mom on their trail. Hell, I didn't even think Big Mom would already immediately continue to chase after them. (Brief shoutout to her unsurprisingly tanking that Coup de Burst.) What was easily predicted is that Perospero would easily create a new hand, just like Aojiki did. Of course it'd work normally, but he did point out the weakness of it being weak to heat, which does suck.

Carrot's screentime post-Pedro's death continue to amuse me, you can see how she's kind of split between grief for Pedro's death, as well as feeling anger towards the person she undeniably hates the most right now. If there wasn't distance between them, she'd probably jump (pun intended) at the chance to enact revenge when nobody's looking.

That said, Oda's spending a lot of time focusing on her reaction to Perospero. I really dislike him right now for putting it in my head that he may actually present an opportunity for her to get to fight Perospero in some capacity. Because they clearly have some beef to settle here. I don't think it will happen, but still... (Especially not now, since Big Mom is like right there.)

---

Learning more about Pudding and Lola's relationship is always welcome. I like the revelation that Pudding is supposed to be the new Minister. Is that why we haven't seen a proper title box for her yet?

---

And uh.... I may have to start calling Katakuri Katakashi.

One Piece 879:

Obviously Luffy still has Gear 4 to use but I'm curious to see if Dogtooth will continue to attempt to "copy" Luffy and try to attempt Gear 4. And if he does will he suffer any of Gear 4's "drawbacks" or any drawbacks at all from what Luffy has dealt with when ever he first reveals a new upgrade? It would be funny to see a mini Dogtooth running around.

Definitely a safe bet that he will at least try.

Damn luffy :( can katakuri copy gear 4th? Mochi can't bounce per se they have the same style but than again they don't so that'll be interesting

Carrot and jinbe ........I'll just say welcome to the crew and leave it at that

Also I'm not the only one that thought big mom was pulling some naruto crap and putting her soul or haki under her feet to walk on the water right lol

B-Leg, please, anything can happen or something. :p

And nah, I didn't think that about Big Mom, because they showed Perospero like immediately lol

How is pero able to do this? Shouldn't sea water nullify his fruit abilities?

Nah we're good, no different from Luffy still being made out of rubber underwater. Abilities in general still work unless it's specifically weak to water/saltwater, it's just that you drown if you're a DF user, if I recall correctly. Also we literally saw him cover the Thousand Sunny earlier.

We got all

Punished Pero with candy arm

Big Mom walking on water like Jesus



Are they the good guys


I guess they left Prometheus and Zeus
 
Big mom left two power sources.. don't tell me they'll have to hold her off?

To be fair, people could easily assume that that is because it is ice lol
Lol fine kizaru's light went straight thru the water and attacked laws sub,luffy was being stretched while completely submerged in arlong park

I find it amusing that Luffy is fighting someone who mirrors his own abilities in the Mirror World.

Also Brulee did make a copy of himself to fight against, so foreshadowing? ;D
 

BatDan

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Don't worry, Luffy can go back to his old trick of thinking of new moves on the spo- shit, Katakuri's future vision. Welp, Luffy's kind of fucked.
It's literally a "Anything you can do, I can do better" match. Unless Luffy can figure out Awakening right now.

So that's where Pound went off to. I guess he got tired of Big Mom.

Carrot looks ready to murder a freaky Willy Wonka motherfucker

So who's the biggest MVP in this arc so far: Perospero or Katakuri?
One survived a point blank bomb after owning Brook, chopper and Pedro and now has an candy arm and allowing Mom to walk on water

Also caused trouble for big father

Katakuri is manhandling Luffy and beat carrot and has taken control of the pirates crew
 
Jinbe throwing out wisdom as usual. My man.

Pero has been pretty impressive. Took a huge bomb, grew a new arm and is now helping Big Mom travel the waters.

Pudding continues to be annoying.

Luffy getting wrecked as he should. It would be something if Dogtooth created a more efficient version of Gear 4 on the spot.

Good stuff overall. And no break!!!!!

Carrot for NN

I was like, Oda, what are you doing here, she ain't ready for that life lmao

my question as she is now..can she? Certainly not without help

He's injured, so it's up in the air. But she very likely needs help. Also it definitely will have to wait, since Big Mom is there, and she can't even reach him anyways. But yea, Oda definitely has something in mind here...

Considering this chapter and his DF functions a bit similar to luffy

He likely did, it would be hilarious to see balloon Katakuri
