Pretty sick chapter. Looks like each of the monster trio can take out a Pacifista in a single hit. A stark contrast to two years ago where it took the entire crew to destroy one, but also left them beaten.
Also, it looks like Luffy found a way to use Gear 2 on a single limb, instead of his whole body like he use to.
But damn, I really want to see just how strong those guys are. Looks like we'll have to wait till Fishman Island to find out.
^I think they're there to help prove that the straw hats are alive and kicking. If they weren't there, they would have set sailed and avoided any fights. Also to show how strong they've gotten after those 2 years. I know everyone is itching to see how strong they are. ;)
Looks like Luffy can use a separate 2nd gear (just one arm) and fuse a Haki in it at the same time. He's crazy strong now, I can't imagine what kind of opponents will be able to match him.
This chapter tells that this was only the beginning of more epic battle that will happens in the future..
if this was a TankÅbon version, it will be the best come back book in manga history XD
Epic chapter. Now all we need is to set sail to Fishman Island!
also, anyone remember how Zoro absorbed Luffy's pain and damage after the Thriller Bark arc? Well, here's a version of it with the fake strawhat crew :3
Hahaha, awesome find Uzumaki! Anyhows, the chapter was really epic! Luffy one shotted the Pacista! And it seems like he can use a Gear on whatever body parts he wants too O.o! Luffy just got an amazing upgrade! I wonder if 3rd Gear will still make him go chibi now.
