THIS IS AN MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.
----------------------------------------
no RAWS have been released yet, but confirmed spoiler pics and scripts have been out the popping up in various forums the past few days.

I think I dropped my jaw after learning Rayleigh's identity. We're finally introduced to another character that was a member of Roger's crew (besides Buggy and Shanks), and he is the Pirate King's right hand man. EPIC, SIMPLY EPIC. I'm looking forward to his meeting with Luffy.

and with all the SH converging on the auction, in which Kid and Law are already in, its safe to assume that havoc will ensue in the next couple of chapters. this is turning into one hell of a story arc. much, much better than I had anticipated since I thought that it'll just be an in-between arc. I'm glad I was wrong.

I really wanted to save the whole excitement of chapter 500 for tomorrow, but you just *had* to make it sound so epic. So here I am, reading the spoiler translations and scans for 500.

So Rayleigh's identity is confirmed to be Roger's first mate. Holy shit!! This is really the kind of thing I've been waiting for. A possible connection and avenue for more information about Roger's history, One Piece and possibly the big picture things in the story. I really don't know what in the world to expect next. Actually, there is no way I could even have the slightest of clues of what to expect, b/c we know Oda is going to, as usual, surprise us all to the extreme.

I'm also quite interested in Robin's little explanation of the Fishmen from 200 years ago. With this supposed "Lost Age" kept secret by the WG, that is also one of the many things that I've become impatient to learn about.

But yeah, with everyone now being picked up by the Flying Fish riders and most likely all of them converging to Camie - where the Tenryuubito, Kid, Killer, Law and who knows who else are already there - it's very safe to say that these next upcoming chapters is where "shit is going to hit the fan." Quite hard most likely too.

I'm also curious of seeing Rayleigh's meeting with Luffy and crew. So far, a lot of people Luffy has come into contact with have said Luffy has given them the impression of Roger. I wonder what Rayleigh's first thoughts are going to be.

Yup FH Scan is up on their site.

We get one step closer to the OP and it finally feels like their might be an end in sight (although I'd imagine it's still at the very least a few hundred more chapters away)

Silver Rayleigh identity was nothing special to me.


How can you say that?! D: Gol D. Roger's right-hand man isn't special? He knocked a guy out by using this "burst of spirit" (or vigor which was used in other translations). the only people we've seen do that were him, Shanks and Luffy just recently (he used it on Duval's cow though).

BTW, someone pointed this out on another forum. seems like he's made an appearance a long time ago. :D

Hmmm nice. I was actually wondering who the second in command was for Roger's crew..Never would have expected this. Also he can do the spirit thing as well.

Ahh. What a good 500th chapter.

Hmmm i don't know if you can technically call it discrimination if you actually define people like merpeople fish. I mean there isn't even a race distinction anymore, its all about species then....

Silvers Rayleigh, the Pirate King's right hand man!!
Also, Trafalgar Law flipping off Eustass Kid was pretty badass.

Wow! I'm hyped up! One of Roger's crew is here! Can't wait to figure out his devil fruit power. How can Rayleigh knocked out the kidnapper boss without even touching him?😱😱

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

Law and Kid have great moments! The Fish Riders & the Straw Hats conduct some great strategy. Still, I expected more from the 500th episode.


Wait, hey Raleigh!

Finally reached 500th chapter, around the half of what’s out at the moment :)

The old man they are looking for is actually ROGER’s RIGHT HAND?! That’s crazy!! No wonder that girl said he is 100 times stronger than anyone on the island…

He used “haki”? I’ve heard about haki before, can’t wait to learn more about it

And for the 500th chapter, we have revelation of the identity of the old man - the first mate of Roger's crew and possibly even stronger than Shanks himself.

Another use of Haki here. I hope we learn more about it now.

500 chapters!!! And a lot of things are revealed in this chapter!!!

First off we're introduced to Law and also Rayleigh, the man who was the right hand of the pirate king.

And I wonder what exactly the term 'haki' means. It is an interesting ability tho.

Also there are a lot of cruel things out there in the world of one piece. I hope Luffy can bring about a change to this.

CHAPTER 500!!!! I honestly can't believe I'm at chapter 500... never thought I would've gotten into one piece because of the length but now it feels too short!!!

Kidd has a small encounter with Law! I can tell just by their designs that they will be VERY important later on and I can't wait!!! Law has no manners and is clearly very confident, does that mean he's really strong!? also Kidd seems really strong too just by the way he is

We have met Rayleigh!!! he was Gol D. Rogers, the pirate kings right hand!!! he used the ability haki on the guard. So is haki just the ability to overwhelm people with your presence so they get knocked out? Is what Enel used also haki?
