Wow the "dog" of Mr. 4's and Miss Merrychristmas is actually a gun that ate the dog fruit. =O

Interesting.

Sanji VS Bon Clay is like the perfect match trying to imagine how Usopp and Chopper will win without help but I can't so I reckon someones gonna end up helping them.

Okay, I still want to know how a gun eats a fruit -.- The possibility of objects having devil fruit abilities is very interesting...and opens up a whole bunch of options.

I find it hard to believe Mr. 4 and Miss Merry Christmas were put under Mr. 3 and Miss Goldenweek. Not only do they seem more powerful, but they actually work together. Mr. 3 and Miss Goldenweek were completely separate.

And that reminds me...Miss Goldenweek must still be lurking about, huh?

The gun probably didnt eat the develfruit himself, i think its done through science experiments on guns

Furthermore its stated by crocodile that Mr.4 is much stronger than mr. 3 in terms of strenght, but Mr. 3 got his position through his intellect and well his devil fruit gives him far more possibilities to complete a mission, he is more resourcefull and a true con artist. Mr 4's powers are too straight forward.

So a gun ate a Devil's Fruit? And I think I'm at the point where I like Carue way more than Vivi. Just sayin', she cries an awful lot. And that time could be spent on... I don't know... saving the country?

He wouldn't be able to run around fast in his smallest form. Yeah, he could've used his natural form, but he can't really attack well in the mode. He did what he did, I guess.

Those numbered agents are the strangest and most annoying cretins I think I've ever seen...especially Bon Clay. I cannot wait to see Sanji kick the crap out of him.

Sanji seems to be saving a lot of ass this arc tbh, so hats off to him. I've also decided that he has the best character theme...it's just so damn snazzy XD

I also cracked up at the scene where Nami straight up admitted she had no skills and ran away. I really like her a lot, and can't get my head around why the OP fandom seems to despise her so much O_O

Karoo saves the day again, twice. Have you ever respected a duck this much? I've said it before and I'll say it again, I've never respected animals as much as the ones in One Piece. These guys are some of the most lovable characters in the anime. He saw Vivi in danger and ran through being trampled, being shot, and even ran up a mountain sideways and flew. That's a real admirable display.

Sanji showing up to kick Bon Clay's ass was great. Him playing an active role is perfect, I've warmed up to him so much since we've reached Alabasta. The fight should be one of the cooler ones. I wasn't sure who would fight Bon Clay but Sanji's a good pick. I also didn't expect a fight to be three different devil fruit powers working together, and as childish the fight seems with Mr.4, Merry Christmas, and dog-gun, it's fun as hell. The preview made it look like we're going to get some manly Usopp moments too which will be nice, after letting Chopper see him like the coward he is he'll need to rebuild that admiration.

I had a brief thought in regards to Usopp while watching. In a philosophical sense Usopp may be the bravest straw hat. Aristotle believes that we should find the mean between vices to be virtuous and to do that one way is to go opposite to the vice that you lean to. For bravery the vices are cowardice and rashness. Usopp clearly leans to cowardice yet his goal is the ideal of the brave warrior of the sea, and in this way he tries to act as the rash person would. This allows him to go against his nature to act truly brave. That's something that someone like Zoro never has to do. He is permanently rash and only knows how to act by attacking everything head on. Someone like Luffy may be the perfect middle who has found the mean without needing to lean one way or the other, he may be Aristotle's virtuous person. I know this is 2deep and stuff but it's just a new way I realized I could look at character writing with, and I wonder if this pertains in other stories as much as it does here. Moral is, Usopp-san is the bravest man alive.

From the explosion it looks like they won't make it but obviously they must make it yo,everyone has their own battle you know what I mean,Zoro has his own fight,Sanji has his own fight and Carue the Chocobo has a heart bigger than most human being yo,he had one mission in mind and that is to bring Vivi to the destination yo.He could barely move or walk yet he had the ability to climb a mountain you know what I mean,even when Luffy said about Nakama put your hand out,not being a human being he remembered it yo. that was beautiful man I love how this anime has such a bond with these creatures,a reindeer with a Chocobo you know what I mean I find this beautiful yo,and it's not like they're trying to make a bond with a human and creature they're not trying they're making it successful in the eyes of the viewers if that makes sense you know what I mean because sometimes they try to make that bond in other anime but it won't work. But this is fucking working yo you know what I mean it makes you feel towards the creature yo.

Luffy tried all his moves against Crocodile he done all he can but he didn't lay a scratch so I don't believe Luffy can defeat him.

Karoo got Vivi that far into the Capital despite getting trampled on and shot at all the while they were being chased by Bon Clay so it's great that he's finally gonna take a break now that Sanji's come to help.

Nami used the secret Joestar technique and it's hilariously effective!

As much as I'd love to call Usopp a hopeless dumbass for not taking things seriously and getting blown up for it, I'm looking forward to how he and Chopper will defeat them. A gun eating a devil fruit is some weird shit.

Latest update on one piece Things look hopeless for Usopp and Chopper, as they continue to suffer from every attack that Mr. 4's team makes. However, the tides may be beginning to turn as Usopp learns what it truly means to be a man. For more information visit:

How do you get a gun to eat a fruit?

A mole-woman, a batter with explosive balls, and a dog who shoots said balls, that's a tough matchup!

Karou is mvp-ing, he's best birb indeed!

Karoo really came in clutch ngl. The most useful side character in this arc imo. He has grown on me since the Whisky Peak arc.

Mr 4 and his partner's DF abilities are handy but weird. I mean how can that Mole Woman kidnap the king? She must have had to infiltrate the palace which means she had to dig through tons of concrete and stone slabs which is outlandish. But even if I ignore all that, what about the gun eating a DF? How is that even possible? How tf can a gun chew and ingest a DF??? Some things sure don't make sense in One Piece.

Carue is the MVP. true goat. The matchups are starting to set up perfectly. I suspect the next couple episodes is each straw hat vs there opposite in number agent.
