All we know that changed was Sentamouru may now be a Vice Admiral of the Marines. It has yet to be confirmed if Aokiji took the open Fleet Admiral position or if it was given to someone else. We can guess it wasn't given to Akainu since last we saw him, he was trailing after Blackbeard. As for the double devil fruit user himself, he's made himself into quite the obstacle and threat to the marines, so no doubt he's constantly being hunted. Blackbeard's aspirations seem to be the same as Luffy's i.e become the Pirate King. However its looking to me more like he's trying to hunt down the Supernovas. Why else would he choose to attack Jewelry Bonnie? I wouldn't be surprised if we saw him attack Law, Kid, or Hawkins. Now I'd like to know just what Law and Kid are doing? Oda has gone out of his way to make these two Supernovas important to the Strawhats for some reason. Kid seems to be turning into a fierce rival with contrasting ideology to Luffy's while Law seems to be more of an undeclared ally.

Well hello there and welcome to "le grande one piece discussion." As plausible as it might be that this new leader might be a relative to Alrong, we can't rule out that he might unrelated to arlong. I have a cool feeling that he/she used to be Jimbei's former first mate when Jimbei lead the Sunny Pirates after Fisher Tiger. I know Jimbei and Arlong used to be equals but we don't know if that was status or power so I'm not sure if Arlong was Jimbei's former first mate. The spolier should be out soon so we'll at least probably see this guy's full body.

Well it was mentioned that Hachi was still healing from protecting the Sunny with Duval before Kuma showed up so that should settle Hachi's disappearance, but Jimbei's absence is still a mystery. A part of me wants to think that maybe he's not really allowed back home...I don't know why, but I just have this feeling that he was kicked out of fishman island...perhaps luffy will mention him in the next chapter.

So you think Jimbei wasn't up to that challenge? I thought he was the leader of the fishman pirates long ago. Maybe he went into some sort of exile while he waited for luffy and somebody took control of the island in his absence

I heard tron was alright, not too good but not terrible. Eh the airlines were alright, I mean the flight was delayed a little but not too bad; I'm at least back in Jersey. Managed to talk to miss short hair this morning but she had to go to work so we only talked for like 15min. I'll take that over nothing Eh but not the annual holiday family gathering begins...great oh well at least we're leaving early this year, thank god for the giants game

I just thought it was great that he said he found the All Blue. I got some theory on this new enemy matter: What if after Whitebeard died, someone who either knew arlong or is a relative of arlong took over the fishmen pirates in Jimbei's absence and kicked Jimbei out of fishman island or is keeping him hostage/imprisoned? Now that Luffy has disrespected the new Fishman pirates, this new leader wants Luffy so he can kill him personally. One could blame whitebeard's death on Luffy since Luffy freed ace, which caused whitebeard to kinda separate himself from his crew and fight the marines/blackbeard to the death...just a theory

No doubt its either a shark fish-man who knew arlong/maybe jimbei or a member of arlong's family. This might be what Jimbei wished to talk to Luffy about back on the boat to Marinefold if you all recall. He wanted to speak to Luffy about something semi urgent and there was a single panel with arlong's face on it. Still I wonder why fishman island has this sort of, mafia-esc thing going now? You think they were kind of forced to make it now that Whitebeard no longer "owns" fishman island? That would make the most sense, at least to me

Indeed you are, but that does sound really cool. It would be sweet if you could combine all those things together to make one huge battle with mechs, tanks, troops, fighters, dropships, etc. So after some airline BS, I'm gonna be leaving good old florida and going back to snowy old jersey. Probably going to see that movie True Grit and hopefully HP7 pt1 In kinkier news, I got little miss short hair's facebook and skype. Kinda hoping she comes on either so we can talk

I have this feeling, its arlong's sister

Trust me I wish that were happening, sounds sooo romantic (for her) I mean if you take a woman to that, you're set. Unfortunatley since we're both going home for the holidays, things like that would have to wait, I'm trying to see if I can get her skype (if she has one) then we can video chat or something. You know, trying to instigate more personal conversation and if she agrees to skype then we can get a more face to face conversation via video chats. Still, I just love her short hair, I don't know why!

Those munchkins always creeped me out. So I went to the mall with some friends today and saw a Santa taking pictures with children, and DOGS! I never saw one do that, it was so funny watching a Santa play with a big labrador retriever. Yup still waiting for that plane...gotta wait another day and a half XD Oh and just to keep you drooling larz I want to you to check something out. See I'm talking to this really pretty girl and at the risk of jynxing anything I will say nothing further. Check her out 1 Check Her out 2 I LOVE her short hair

Probably hanging out with my dogs, really I'd only have 1 day before my brother shows up so I'll spend it with the dogs, I missed them a lot. I do know I will be going to NYC during my break and possibly seeing that movie True Grit with my brother, and MAYBE Harry Potter 7. Muntchkin is a fun card game with hysterical card art and very silly gameplay. Like you can wield a gold plated alien snake shooting gun that does extra damage cause its got scary snakes. XD Its very silly

Turns out there's a chance I can maybe extend my break by 2 days. I have a chance to get an early flight home. Your battletech story brought my back to my warhammer days. All I know is that March is going to be one sweet month down here. My friend Bob from Jersey comes back from his year trip to South Korea. He'll be bringing me back the magic deck and the munchkin decks But ssshhh Indiana Jones is on! All 4 of them all weekend [emote=onion]thumb[/emote]

I doubt that he's stronger. I do remember arlong being on a boat to prison so I assume he's in prison. I'm sensing maybe some kind of uprising in fish-man island. Perhaps anger stirred out of whitebeard's death and as a result the fish-men have made some sort of mob-esc style intimidation factor to protect their island.

Hey guys, we're finally there, the place of dreams Fish-Man Island!!!! But wait who's at the gate? Hmmm could Arlong be back home? What about Jimbei? Something seems fishy down at fish-man island...

I think by now Channukah is actually over since it started so early this year but thank you very much for the sentiment. Its funny how some people are like that sometimes.You can tell them, "Nah I don't want italian for dinner" a dozen times and they'll surprise you with italian for dinner "because you gave us so many good hints..." Really? I thought no meant no, last time I checked we weren't in crazy town and no didn't mean, "yes with gusto!" Oh well On a completely unrelated matter, my car is finally fixed after 3 days of fixing. (Long wait I know ) I didn't remember how life was without a car...I don't like it...a king isn't supposed to walk everywhere

Well this is a duo show so its time I did my part. Well another year has almost come and gone. You know life can be funny and irritating sometimes. I feel like my life is suffering from the Yin&Yang concept, everytime something good happens to me, something chaotic must balance it out. Its weird, but somehow makes sense....oh I'm sorry you were all expecting some sort of blog update weren't you? [emote=onion]what[/emote] My bad, got caught up in personal dilemas.... So yeah, the year is almost over. I've survived 10months at this new school and only recently have I felt challenged by the material. I'm somehow still getting only A's and B's and I now have more A's than be B's making me officially an A student. Otherwise, my holiday break will start a week from friday and it looks like I'll be getting a nintendo DSI, a microwave, and pokemon soulsilver :mrgreen: Larz, what're you getting?

EDIT: Well youtube won't let me put the media video thing here so I'll have to use a link: Gotta Buy Em All I just think this is funny as hell

Luffy originally said "a crew of 10 people that should do it." So we'll wait and see.... but what what what?! Go Kraken GO!!! Maybe the Kraken Surume will be the 10th member OR.... anyone think of maybe Laboon being the final crew member?

Eh true. You know what I've always been thinking though and my brother kind of agrees with me is that the strawhats have all 10 crew members. Who's the final member? Why the spirit of the Thousand Sunny! The ship has its own soul and "inherited" the spirit of the Merry Go who's been with the crew since before Don Krieg. The thousand sunny deserves to be the 10th strawhat to me

Weak? Thats debateable I mean he is a logia type DF user. But agreed Coribu isn't strawhat material. Thats actually a good durendal, I doubt there is air down there in fishaman island. But maybe they give visitors some sort of bubble they can wear on their heads like the ship coating. I say Mr.2 should've joined strawhats crew after Impel Down, but a part of me wanted to see Mr.3 join the strawhats. You've got to admit, his wax powers are really useful in combo with luffy.

For those of you wanting to stretch your atristic ego, I'm currently working on coloring this FMA line art. However I have several parts of the shading that I'm feeling iffy about. I've made sure to circle them as well as place the circles on a separate layer for your convenience. Any and all help on what to do with these areas would be greatly appreciated. EDIT: Me the idiot completely forgot to attach the file for you guys go ahead and laugh FMA_Querry.psd.zip

What about those spitting lizard dinosaurs from Jurassic Park? Aren't those not only real but those oily discharges they spit poisonous? I think since reptiles are decedents from dinosaurs we can say some dinosaurs were poisonous.

Yeah I mean the main method of communication in One Piece is having snails mimic you! Who comes up with that?! Still though back to the chapter... I didn't expect Coribu's pirates to get destroyed by the kraken like that, were you guys? I kinda thought Coribu and his crew would cause some trouble for the strawhats at Fishman Island or at least along their way there...and what another 3000meters to go?! How does anyone get to freaking fishman island! First they gotta bypass that Kraken, all those monsters down in the dark depths, all while still making it to 10000meters undersea...even then they gotta hope not to piss off the fishmen or else they're screwed. Remember how strong those guys are

I just love how despite how we should see this ridiculousness coming, we never do.
