Nice chapter.

Ulti wants to get close to Page One for some reason. If Ulti knows Sanji and Page One relationship this might lead to potential Sanji and Ulti story.

Kyoshiro respects Denjiro but not King. Interesting.

Kaido also enjoys Black Maria's company. Imagine if Sanji sees that. Might foreshadow Sanji participate on a fight against Kaido.

Fukurojuku at least explains plothole why no body informs Orochi because he belives Queen is enough to handle supernova and no info about samurai.

Momo gets a beating is nice but that's too far since he is a kid.

Black Maria also might be acting. She doesn't have any interest to become Calamity is fishy and she has pity for Momo might be an act too.

It's also weird that WB Didn't ask Oden condition for 20 years. Ace didn't tell WB about Wano condition and Izo Didn't come back to Wano.
Ay bro that third point a hell of a reach lmafo

Liked this chapter, it's moving most of the teams forwards quite well.

Orochi seems awfully scared like the fool he is. Black Marias empathy for Momo surprised me though. Or is Oda pulling the typical line of "oh women are so emotional and bond easily with a child"? I sure hope not. But it makes her shine in a different light, especially since we don't know her well yet.

I would really celebrate it a lot if Nami, however she does it, would manage to get Prometheus as well. How fucked up would that be? Just casually stealing two out of three major weapons of Big Mom?

Also I love how Usopp and Chopper casually shoot at Big Mom with their tank lmao. And the others be like "whatever, let's go".

What I found disappointing is Marcos message to Luffy. I hoped it would have more significance. Maybe Oda had something in mind for it but then changed his plot so it became irrelevant, and thus he had to solve it like this.

Interesting fact is though the note of Marco saying that Onigashima once had a different name. So I wonder, what could it be?

props to the translation team.
way better than the one on brago's .... even the official.

I hate official trans with passion, they always assume their reader is native english speaker and use those not-so-popular word/lingos/expressions
You know there is multiple "Official Translations" of One Piece right? Different Countries all over the World have their own translations. Viz is the Official Translation for North America, so of course it is going to pander to that audience.

Great chapter, I wonder what the title is reffering to.

Looks like Marco didnt come with Neko but followed later, I guess he flew all the way :phoenixmarco:.

I feel like it wasn't wise leaving Sasaki just chained up, if gets free, Kyoushiro's cover will be blown.

I wonder who will save Momo from crucifixion, my I guess is Zoro.

Big Mom chasing the strawhats again ???:suresure: , this will be fun.

Luffy vs Ulti and Pageone ?, I'm conflicted I want Ulti hype but not at the expense of Luffy :lusalty:

if you say many , mangaplus has spanish and english indeed yeah. last time i check mangaplus still uses viz's and mangaplus is kinda worldwide.
so still stephen if you are reading, might try to use straightforward english.

probably spanish speaker can say a thing or two regarding the official's translation?

Lovely chapter, mostly following up on last week's events. Looks like the Bege family is clearing Dressrosa, and Green Bit is the perfect jungle island to lose some marines on your tail!

The Beast Pirates have the best party babes. Orochi's geisha, Queen's dance group, Apoo's chorus, Who's Who's cat girls, now even Kaido has oni babe Black Maria at his side. Even though the Tobiroppo are all about that promotion, Black Maria not wanting to work during the biggest party of the year is the one I can relate to the most. Okay, Page One and Ulti are also horsing around. Kanjuro reveals the Samurai weren't defeated, Fukurokuju reveals the Supernova are in the banquet hall, Kaido may not be threatened by any of this but Orochi has alarms going off in his head. The most interesting part of this is that Kaido finally lost his path to Laugh Tale with the confirmation the time jumpers don't know anything. Amusing that it was Inu and Neko who actually sailed with Oden, but Jack obssesively searched for Raizo with no idea who cat and dog were and treated them like normal enemies. Kaido most certainly regrets killing Oden now when he could have spent the last 20 years touturing him for Laugh Tale's secrets.

Only Marco and Izo are confirmed to return. Neko's been out at sea since the events of Zou and doesn't have a lot to show for it with only Izo and a note from Marco. Back in Zou he only talked about recruiting Marco, not the entire ex-Whitebeard pirates, so this might honestly be all were getting. I just have to remark on how impressive it is that Marco simply flew across the New World and even beat Neko to Wano weeks after giving him the note. Marco says something about news never leaving Wano, no point in even making sense of this. It's impossible to cover up how the Whitebeard Pirates didn't know Kaido occupied Oden's Wano and made it his HQ, at the same time they never bothered to visit their dearest friend for over 25 years. I'm more interested in what the other ex-WB pirates are up to; are they protecting Sphinx island? Are they on the way with their own fleet? Are they out of the loop? They took an L in Marineford, an L in the Payback war, I don't blame them if they want to avoid a third L in Wano in 2 years.

Big Mom is on the loose again! Everybody back to bed. Luckily, she's finally got the full kimono. While Kaido is drunk and having a ball, Big Mom is still very much interested in Luffy's head. No amnesia, no hunger, she could honestly wipe out the alliance by herself if Chopper and Usopp don't think of something. Then Prometheus magically returns and homes in on Zeus and Nami. Excuse me? Prometheus wasn't there when the Big Mom pirates first came to Wano, wasn't there with O-Lin and Napoleon, but is now in Onigashima when everyone else is at the bottom of the waterfall. I might regret asking this, but where the heck has Big Mom been hiding this guy the entire time? Should she grab Zeus, Big Mom goes back to full strength and won't be participating in Wano under a nerf as people have suggested.

After getting Who's Who last week, we have an update on the rest of the Flying Six. Except X-Drake, the fact that we lost sight of him confirms him as the new All-Star with King and Jack. So Sasaki got double crossed and chained up, miraculously keeping his head and preserving his body for a later battle. I would have personally tossed him into the ocean for suspense. Denjiro could know Sasaki is a Devil Fruit user and weak to the sea like the SMILE eaters, but the big surprise reveal later would have been that he's a fishmen with gills and thus failed to drown. We get Ulti and Page One being cute together which is too precious to see. Page One keeps acting tough, but we all know by now he's a complete pushover. Ulti seemingly picked up this manner of speech from him and took it the next level as she angrily snaps at people like a delinquent. But Luffy is the wrong person to snap at! Especially with other Supernova right around the corner. They better pull out some hats and start the magic show because otherwise it's over. Maybe Page One was brought back so he can have a character moment where he takes a beating from Luffy letting Ulti get away in the process.

Next week, it would be cool to see Page One and Ulti do a brother & sister combined attack. A double dino intimidation transformation? Uh, a Mario & Luigi bounce-on-each-others-heads moment? Seeing how Sasaki was let off so easily, I imagine the Tobiroppo are being preserved for 1v1 duels. It's not the Impel Down thing where Awakened Zoans get knocked out then get back up later. Fighting an injured opponent brings shame to a Samurai duel or a Strawhat 1v1. I don't see Ulti taking any serious damage, but Page One might be disposable. Kaido and Orochi should be going into action, but with King and Jack gone they may just leave this to the All-Stars. The biggest mystery is what's the plan for Big Mom since she's the biggest threat by far and she is ready to duke it out here and now.
Page One a Pushover cause of Gags? :seriously::kaidowhat:dont disrespect pay pay like that :ultimoji::pagemoji:
