I don't understand whats the significance of him using lead bullets?


I'm glad someone mentioned this, pretty sure those kind of bullets would be made of lead. I know that nowadays they are trying to phase out lead (because it's obviously poisonous) for tungsten and other metals. So I'm assuming it's a translation issue.

Also wanted to add, after re-reading the chapter. I really, really dig the teamwork between Viola and Usopp. It probably wont happen but if she did join the crew her power would be extremely useful if paired up with Usopp.


I don't think this is a translation error. Yes in the real world flintlock pistols used round lead bullets, but in the One Piece world the average gun looks like a flintlock, but obviously works differently in mechanical terms since Doflamingo fired several shots in a row at Law, where as a real flintlock would require a lengthy front-loading process after every shot, similar to that of a musket.

That's not how the rankings work, they rank previous chapters. I imagine the rankings were shown in this weeks magazine though that's why they called it the Issue #40 ToC. I'm not certain on that but I am certain they didn't rank this chapter.

Yeah I knew that the pistols in One Piece didn't work like flint-lock pistols. I remember reading and SBS about that. Just never figured they used different bullets. Since most pistols, flint-lock or otherwise have used lead up until recently. Not that it matters that much, just splitting hairs.

The sniping was nice and all, but why even use Viola to help make the shot if you make her obsolete a couple of pages later by giving Usopp Haki that does practically the same thing as her power?

This chapter was released on the same issue that the rank you mentioned.
How would the japanese rank the chapter without even reading it?

Even if Usopp was able to feel the presence of Law, Luffy and Sugar -and that wasn't part of the plan at all- Viola was necessary to describe the scenario accurately, the size and height of the wall, window, etc., to make the shooting reach its target. If Usopp could see the structure of the castle with his newly acquired Haki, he wouldn't need Viola, but in this chapter at least he couldn't.

$%^# GOD USOPP! <3 T_T *sparkles of awe* Was that freakin' KH?

"Why have you two come here?" - Doflamingo
"To kick your ass!" - Luffy
"What he said." - Law
Lmao Law.

Edit: I love the boost thing Usopp used, that was so cool I hope he uses them more often in the future, maybe to boost the power of his shots.

Ah, looks like Law has a weakness in lead bullets, maybe??

Usopp being useful! Robin being useful! Franky being useful! It seemed like they were pushed aside as main characters for the past couple arcs. Especially Usopp; is that Haki I see!?

Another good chapter.
Finally Ussop is entertaining again, instead of having him be a mind numbing annoyance and source of shitty jokes an shouts he has been for half a thousand chapters.

Felt like the old Ussop is here.
I really hope Oda continues like this, simple, but enjoyable story.

Kinda weird how when I stopped reading, around chapter 738, Usopp was my least favorite part of this arc but since I've resumed, he's easily been the best. This was my favorite chapter since Sabo's reveal & it did really feel like classic One Piece.

It is surprising Law does not know about Sugar. Also Viola could have just shared her memory with Usopp?

Lol! That was unexpected! I know Usopp intended to knock Sugar down, but I didn't foresee the method. It was hilarious! 😂

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