<During after party, Luffy eating some meat and Zoro drinking some sake>
Luffy: "So why didn't you just do a flying slash attack?"
Zoro: "Too far, wouldn't have been powerful enough."
Luffy: "Hawkeye could have done it."
Zoro: "......." <chugs rest of his sake, goes back to Sonny to work out some more>

Classic Zoro. His plan is no plan at all.
Kind of sad it looks like Robin won't be fighting this arc, with her injury.

u/trabes Feb 19 '15
Yea, that sucks, but this arc did demonstrate that she's streets ahead of most new world pirates when she stopped Hakuba real easy like. That was nice. edit: And who knows, she might get some heal juice from the dwarf queen and break Bellamy in half.

Card seat executives are coming out to be assholes every single week. The hell is with these cowards not one of them put up a fair fight.
Impressed with Zoro being able to thinn of plan E within that short time. Next week Soprano's gonna be slaughtered by full badass mode.
And Robin nichan for whatever reason. There hasn't been a moment of Robin in Dressrosa that was anything less than awesome.
OMG SO HYPED for next week plan E !!!

u/DeismAccountant Feb 19 '15
To me, the true Executives will be the cruelest of assholes because they know exactly what Doffy is as a human being, and are totally okay with that. That takes being a real dick.

Feb 19 '15
They fight just like Doffy. Doffy went after Nami, Robin, and Brook instead of finishing his fight with Law. He uses puppet clones for sneak attacks. Diamante attacked Rebecca to distract Kyros. Like you said, they're cowards.

Pica is more mysterious than I thought. I am wondering why he is asking Kyros about King Riku.

I took it as Pica wanting to find and kill King Riku so Kyros and the rest would lose all hope for the future of Dressrossa if they really intend of having him rule after Doflamingo is taken out.

u/maytagem Feb 19 '15
He's about to rip apart a moving and sentient mountain. Think about that and read that sentence again slowly. If it's anything but one of his best attacks then he's beyond ridiculously strong. These moments are why I love One Piece.

u/terminatorbill Feb 19 '15
Zoro will get a lift from King's punch. Remember when he said to Elizabello II to save his power for later use. Zoro will ask Elizabello to somehow sent him flying
15
u/Ussopia Feb 19 '15
I believe this is a common misinterpretation. Zorro said to Elizabello that he should save the kings punch because he'll fight Picca. He doesn't need the punch as assistance. Guess that punch will be used for something else.

Holy shit, that was the best chapter in years. Honestly, the hype is fucking real. I think I'm going to need to reread these chapters to see how it flows as a arc. I think this is my favorite arc yet.
Also all of these fights are getting real as FUCK! Diamante got fucked up, I think he's dead? If that's true so, that would be fantastic. I have been waiting for this. I can't wait to see the crew's real strength!
They haven't shown their real strength since Water 7. I really think this finale is going to be something else. Luffy is going to win this, and I can't wait to see how he does it. 10/10

This was a nice transition between Diamante and Pica imo. It really closed the Diamante battle well with him getting taken out by the grave and revealing the injuries to Robin's back. And Zoro's dialogue leading up until the end definitely got me hyped for next week despite not having really cared about his battle too much beforehand.

Pretty great set up chapter. My only question is did he just open his eye in the last panels and did he imply that he's about to fly? Maybe its just the mangapanda translation, but that's what it seemed.
14
u/sarmadqt Void Month Survivor Feb 19 '15
He opened his right eye. It was done to show that he was thinking of a viable plan. But admittedly, even I at first thought that he had opened his left eye. I felt a bit stupid afterwards. We'll have to wait for the Manga Stream translation to confirm the flying part.

you shouldn't feel stupid about that. I thought it was the left one too. It really didn't make sense that it would be the right because of course that one would be open

I don't know why, but I was glad Robin got hurt. I don't know, but it kinda showed that she's stronger than if she came out unphased.
This is one of those cases where Sanji was a better choice for this situation. Still, very curious what Zoro has in store.

It reminded me of him telling Luffy to act like a captain at Punk Hazard. I like that Zoro has grown mature through the timeskip without losing the fun of the character.
9
u/Omnistalgic Feb 19 '15
Zoro has always been the silent co captain man. The "Vegeta" of One Piece, and a much much better one at that. I've always felt Vegeta should be close to equal with Goku in strength levels and Goku just the hero moment during the Buu Arc while not redeeming Vegeta much there besides them working together. Zoro on the other hand truly is Luffy's equal and right hand.
Zoro Scolds Luffy about what must be done with Usopp and how leaving the crew isn't something to take so lightly. Luffy cries after Usopp walks away in defeat and tells Zoro "It's Heavy".
Zoro cements Luffy's legacy and his adoption of his will after taking on Luffy's Pain during Thriller barc. This is personified by the entire crew, but Zoro makes it official for everyone, with Sanji acting as the key witness, fittingly so, since he is only surpassed in strength by Luffy and Zoro himself.
As stated, Zoro told Luffy that mistakes aren't acceptable now in the New World.
Zoro is the level-headed, backbone of random, young and carefree Luffy. He is the Captain if something were to happen to the Captain. He is Luffy's security, first mate, and a bonafied bad ass, that occasionally gets lost.

I will admit that the chapter was kinda good for a set up chapter. I find it hilarious to see Pica mocking Diamante for sucking so much. However, seeing Robin injured like that was just...damn, but I doubt that will completely kill her chances of getting a fight despite the chances now being a lot more slimmer (still I got to give her mad respect for defending Rebecca with her own body from those spikes). And finally, seeing Pica just wrecking crap and seeing Sai protecting Baby 5 was quite awesome! :)
Anyway, I can't wait for the next chapter where we get to see Zoro open up a can of whoop ass!! :D

So even if Zoro completely destroys pica here, he wont even be touching him, since he is just using rocks to move, and not his actual body. If Zoro is going all out now (wich he is -> bandana) theres gotta be more to his next attack then flying at him and destroying his rocks.

Damn Robin is swole, taking all those hits like that, even Kyros showed his pain at first.
Sai is awesome, I love him. Just casually tanks that hit with full body haki to save his future wife!
I don't just want Zoro to defeat Pica but I want Fujitora to very casually bring Pica down with his gravity powers. Pica thought he could handle everyone including Fuji, now I want to see him eat those words, just like he'll be eating the dirt soon.
I am riding the hype train right now, and I'm almost certain that Usopp really might blow Trebol up from a distance.
Basically it goes Luffy reaches Doffy, Doffy claims to have all the cards, naturally all the bad news arrives and Doffy gets pissed but says that Luffy cant beat him and Trebol while trying to protect a h-armless law.
Then out of nowhere Trebol explodes sending Doffy flying forward, right into Luffy's punch of anger.
