Setting sail yet again we continue the One Piece discussion into the third thread!
In the closing posts of the previous thread we were left with a debate on the best matchups.
quote Shadow Rue
Please. Shanks could never take Luffy.
Buggy could, though. And he is the perfect rival! Luffy idolizes Shanks, Buggy loathes him. Luffy can't be hurt by bullets, Buggy can't be hurt by blades. They both have deep rooted hatred in each other.
quote Fay Valentine
Ugh, will you please give up on buggy? Shanks and Luffy could both take him on, Luffy could beat him one-on-one, and Shanks would totally own him.
quote ali3n
They would fight because they both want one piece.Buggy sucks plain and simple compared to alot of the later villans (Crocodile, Enru, CP9 etc).Actually Shadow Rue Luffy doent loathe Buggy, he just about knows that Buggy exists.

I'm hoping it's the latter concering the Shichibukai, Enth. Good chapter, it's about time Buggy was revealed as a member. Also holy shit at the Mera Mera fruit!

That was a cool set-up chapter.
Absolutely hilarious reveal that Buggy is a member of the Shichibukai! Loved that! The mysteriousness of them not revealing the final member means it's either a person who we've never seen before but will become major at some point down the line, or it's someone we already know who would be an even bigger twist at joining the Shichibukai than Law was...

Blatantly Blackbeard is Pirate King, he's the most evil bastard there is
One of the best parts about the past few chapters including this one, has been Franky's hair. It is different in like every single panel. Nice subtle jokes.
Is it? I though it was just different in every arc since the timeskip. Unless that's what you meant...
His insect jaw hairdo was epic.

Chapter was alright, too bad we didn't get to see some bounties. I have a feeling one piece is going to start improving again, Oda is paying more attention to the world again. Not that punk hazard was bad, it just wasn't good.
The current build up I find more interesting than what the two previous arcs have given us, and I do hope something more directly related to the plot occurs soon. I'm hoping that the inclusion of so many non Strawhat crew people in the group means that there isn't going to be a long side story before we get to the next big thing.
I agree. I assume Kinemon and Momonosuke will leave the group after whatever happens at Dressrosa is resolved. Wonder where the rest of the Heart Pirates are...
Momonosuke was awesome in this chapter, haha.

Kidd teaming up with that voodoo strategist guy (forget his name >_<) I found pretty interesting. Wondering where that is going to go, because voodoo guy earned a decent amount of respect from me when he went against Kizaru. I've always been a fan of the brainier types of villains I suppose. If they are going to be antagonists, there is always the chance they'll be more along the line of rivals.

Double post due to having so much respect for Momonosuke right now *brofist*
As for the chapter...Decent enough, even if we're back in slow set-up territory.
And Luffy has had his ass kicked by Smoker throughout the entire series. So Luffy gains the ability to fight him and THEY DON'T EVEN FIGHT.
Seeing Smoker defeated by Vergo, and then beaten easily by Doflamingo, I'm under the impression that Luffy is probably stronger than him now too by quite some way. Otherwise Luffy would be way below Law.
