~Manga Discussion~

[13kings]

has everyone forgotten about why they went to that island with the slave trade in the first place? to get there ship coated to go under water. being roger's old rival i would think WB has a master coater on his ships to be able to rule the sea from both above and below. that or he is related to davy jones o.o. which despite how epic that would be, i doubt. So the most logical reason for him being under water is either a gaint bubble or his ship was coated to go underwater.

also as for the scar, i don;t remember a scar o.O and also he doesn't have that nose thing?

Spoiler

and the last clip of WB we have seen

Spoiler

Yeah whitebeard might've not had a scar in the manga but he had one in the anime

But the scar in the anime and the one from the last manga chapter (551) are a whole lot different if u ask me.

EDIT: although it does kinda look like whitebeard actually does hav a scar in the early manga if u squint your eyes a bit.

[Draak]

a few things:

1)i got quoted, hell yeah.

2)Anime does not always go along with the manga hence the two discussions, but i do agree that the scars are different from manga to anime and idk why o.o

3) will dragon show up? cause of luffy heading there? i mean he did save his son once from smoker, maybe he will do it again?

[ragcage]

damn... i was a couple of days gone so i couldn't read the chapter...
the first word that i could think of with this chapter was WOW !!! and i im soo exited for the next chapter... cant wait :p

ok, so whitebeard's and everyone else's ship was coated right, or was it just whitebeard and the other comrads of wb came through the gates of justice ?
and about the coater of the ship, pretty sure it wasn't rayleigh ^.^
or maybe the moby dick can always swim under water, since it resambles a whale ...
but davy jones... he cant be a (simple) coater on wb's ship, why ? cuz he is a frickin legend, 1. he is a captain himself, 2. he's ooold, 3. well, he just is not on WB's crew xD
wb's has got a coater on his crew, pretty sure about that, but it's just an ordinary guy i think.

it's cool you mentioned

davy jones

it made me think, what if there is a davy jones is one piece O_o, what if :p
maybe he is the creator of devil fruits, because he is cursed or something,that would be completely insane, but i think (IF) he exists, than we would see him somewhere in the new world

and about the scars on wb, i don't really think they are that importand, well, in the first scene you gave us, WB is sitting and we cant see anyscar. in the second we (if im right) see WB's full body, and you cant pull the anime in this discussion, cuz the anime in not here yet, the manga is like 75 chapters in front of the anime...

and that nose thingy, he only uses that when he's on his ship, dong nothing, and when he is going to fight, than he will pull it off O_o (i think)

ok, so WB has a lot of allies, i could count at least like 14 ships but there are definitely a lot more O_o this is definitely a huge ass war xD

Spoiler

and they're definitely all as atrong as ehm, the straw hat crew now (dont you guys think so ?
it are all huge ships ... with a big crew... well, not all as strong as the straw hats, but they all survived the first half of the grand line .. so, they're all pretty strong :)

fights
i think some of these pirate crew are enough for like all silly marines out there, and some of the stronger ones(with high bountys, wich we still have to see xD) are going to fight some shichibukai, whitebeard will fight the main admiral sengoku (i think he's pretty strong :p)
and the 3 division comanders on whitebeards ship will beat the crap out of those admirals :p

and than we've got luffy and 2 ex-shichibukai
i think luffy will go straight to ace, and ehm croc will fight a shichibukai he hated :p and jimbei.. hmz, dunno what he will do :p
and Boa Hancock might turn against the worlld goverment as well... as in once a pirate, always a pirate xD

hope that's enough speculation for this week :p
btw, i cant w8 for chapter 555, it has to be something special :p


edit:
lol, just saw how much i typed x3
i just couldn't sleep ...

[night_vision]

yeah WB vs Shichibukai, the way things going Luffy and his small ship can perhaps sneak in to Ace, lol
Well the smile of WB made me bit worry, he was bit sick if i recall correctly and he is very very OLD atm, so does any one think WB might be the first person important to die in OP, Well I hope not o.o

hmm I think WB will die in this battle he is old and if he doesn't then yes he will be a pirate king, because he will be victorious over WG. And everyone will fear him even more, with that in mind he can be pirate king easily. He will die, cuz if he dies, then so many people will try to take over his place. So yes, he has to die. I am pretty sure WB will save Ace even if he dies, i know he wants ace to be pirate king, but I don’t see that happening. Ace has no interest in becoming pirate king; he always has and will respect WB so he only wants WB to be pirate king.

Oh and I just found spoilers of chapter 552, I don’t know if they are true or not. So help yourself if you want to know what will happen in up coming chapter.

Spoilers of chapter 552

Spoiler

as it turns out Luffy knew that Ace and he didn’t share the same blood. He tells everyone that Ace’s father is Roger (and it looks like the time when Garp revealed who Luffy’s father was).
To Ace
Ace’s reminiscence:
Setting off on his own… Shanks saving his little brother… shooting down an offer to enter the Shichibukai (REALLY NOT SURE HERE)… Picking a fight with WB… Fighting with Jimbei for 5 days… fighting with WB…
The days on WB’s ship when he aimed for the old man’s life… the day when he finally acknokwledged WB as “father”
Up until BB’s desertion.
WB said I needn’t pursue BB, but I ignored him and went anyway… I didn’t care, because he was a deserter.
WB: Haa! Did I say that? I said to go but…?
Ace: Don’t lie!!!
Whitebeard expresses his opinion to his children (division commanders)
Because father said to go, you went.
It’s not your fault…
Whitebeard splits the heavens and causes a giant tidal wave.
Sengoku: Whitebeard is a user of the Gura Gura Fruit! He’s an Earthquake Man!
Don’t think we have an advantage just because of our numbers!! (not sure here)
He’s a man with the power to destroy the world!!!!
Two giant tidal waves are coming, and Aokiji tries to stop one of them.
The other is up against Akainu’s power, but it doesn’t seem that his is a power that can stop it.
50,000 marines are suddenly wiped out.

[Astaroth_val]

gahhh ive been away for 10 days and this awaits my returnnn... the chappy was great especially the last few pages with WB turning up ...its finally gonna start i cant wait for the fighting and luffy still has to make is crazy and or funny entrance

[Draak]

ok so the prediction of WB having a DF was true, and it was something that affected the water. I guess i forgot about storms and waves being a part of the book moby dick, and never made the connection between. One a side note, the spoiler was right and how awesome is this chapter?

[uekipheonix]

not fully right, I wanted to see some marines get wahsed but chapter stoped at tsunami, sob sob
