We got some meat them bones this week. A good amount of stuff to talk about this time. So let’s dig in! What? You’re vegan? Here, I got some tofu just for you.
Trafalger D. Aqua Lawyer. Nice of Oda giving him something else to strive for than simply revenge. Working with Luffy to get the Road Poneglyphs will keep Law and Luffy as allies while at the same time making his ultimate goal somewhat different from Luffy’s. I can see Robin telling Law what the Strawhats learned on Laugh Tale and Law deciding to help them fight the World Government.
Cyborg Franky VS Sasaki and his Armored Division. That should be fun. Hm? I wonder what devil fruit Sasaki has? It’s probably an armored Zoan. An ankylosaurus, maybe?
I’m warming up to Yamato now. I really want to know his full backstory. Did y’all catch his teeth growing sharper? Yep, I hope we get info on the Oni species soon. It would be cool to know just how terrifying Kaido truly is. Woo boy! Kaido’s Man/Beast zoan mode is gonna be bonkers when it’s finally revealed!
Guess I should mention Team Kin’emon getting trashed but we all knew that was gonna happen sooner or later. This is Monkey D. Luffy’s world and they all just live in it.
Big Mom. She’s been a wild card for awhile now, but we could soon be seeing just exactly why Oda put her in this arc. My current guess is she’s there to double cross Kaido. I know, I know! It’s obvious. Hear me out! She’ll double cross Kaido and weaken him a bit more for Team Luffy. But, of course it’s Kaido, so even Big Mom will lose to him and Luffy will save Big Boned Momma before Kaido kills her. I know how you think Oda! You love you some helpless women for the tough manly man guys to save. Oh, I shouldn’t be so hard on Oda for being sexist. Wait, yes I should! I fully stand by my prediction.
This was an okay chapter. The hopping all over the battlefield thing has gotten old, but other than that I’m digging the way things are going, mostly. Usopp and Nami were saved by a kid and her pets but the less I talk about that the better. Instead, let’s figure out who’s trying to get into Black Maria kimono. Shogun Orochi, maybe? But, my guess it’s Kevin Bacon researching an upcoming role. Oops! Sorry, vegan friends. I mean Kevin Lettuce.

One reply on “Law Wants D Truth [One Piece 996]”
Yamato’s transformation interests me. As for Sasaki- I was thinks more like a Triceratops. It’s a tough Dinosaur.
Big Mom flipping the script only for Kaido to beat her? Cool! And Luffy saving her after “winning” in Whole Cake would REALLY hurt her reputation as a Yonko. Maybe even enough to bump her out completely and allowing Luffy to take her place.
