This is an option
But first Luffy needs to collect his crew and this is taking some time, isn't it ?
The only nerving thing is, that we need to wait 1 week to see more of our opinions

They're all going to magically end up where Luffy is. I'm calling it.

Did you see them announce the new movie on the first page of the chapter?

Maybe the movie will tell us what happened to the others!?!?


Lol, I can dream.

Seeing as everyone is featured on the first page mini arcs of the chapters, I'd assume they might just magically appear as you said.

maybe magically show up then a flashback chap/ep or 2. kind of hard to imagine they wont be in this fight.

prolly will see more about them in the anime as its already shown slightly more.

I think we shouldn't talk about it like this

One day he will catch them up. But first, he needs to finish his fight, doesn't he ?!

And this one is hard enough.

In my opinion it's kinda sad. This fight was/is the top. But after this you need to have better, harder fights in a manga.
And how he wants to solve this "problem".. ?! We should talk about this

so thats why he said 'we wont meet again' at archipelago ?

Well this arc's ending (the part right now, the big fight) is focusing more on general fights and not so much luffys.


The upcoming arcs will deal with luffy fighting logias no doubt. And the way to deal with them is using the haki. So there will still be interesting fights to come up. The most interesting fights after all are 1v1's....so this big slug fest isn't exactly that great of a interesting fight, as it is just cool seeing all those people there doing there thing.


The fishman island arc is next, and no doubt jimbei will be involved, another reason I think he could be the 10th strawhat...


As for boa, shes got an island to run....and shes a bit old to be luffys love interest but thats a nice thought anyways, (shes like 10 years his elder)


and as for mokuton....He said that because he whole heartedly believed they would never meet again...I *believe* he was trying to abolish the strawhat pirates as per request from his father maybe...or someone else. Can't say for the reason why yet obviously.



But one piece is a great story and I'm sure everything will make sense eventually.

Interesting i'd say.

I think after all the cover story will be finished they will appear in the battle.

there is no way they can join the battle

and any ideas what he told to rayleigh?

For all we know, he could have just been telling him that ace was rogers son and that he was about to be executed. You never know..
