Well now, last chapter revealed some most startling information concerning the mermaid princess. What shocking info will THIS week's edition unearth? Let's find out.....
BTW, credit for spoilers goes to ohana for the summary and APforums' CCC for translation:
-Chapter title is "You Should Keep These Two Changes In Mind". The ministory features Tonjit (the old man from the Davy Back Fight arc).
-Robin continues her conversation with Neptune. It's revealed that there are three ancient weapons: Poseidon, Pluton, and Uranus. Both are worried that people would hunt down Shira if her secret were known. However, it turns out that a certain swampy supernova was eavesdropping on the conversation......
-Meanwhile, Jinbei informs Luffy of certain events that took place during the skip. He first explains that marine admirals Aokiji and Akainu fought each other. Looks like what sparked the battle was Sengoku pushing for Aokiji to take the FA position, while the WG higher-ups supported Akainu instead. Therefore, it was agreed that both admirals would duel over the position, and the grueling 10-day battle resulted in the red hound's victory. The newly appointed FA spares Aokiji after the duel, but it's revealed that his current whereabouts are unknown, as he abandoned the marines.....
-Jinbei next reveals that Blackbeard has become an emperor. Since Teach was familiar with Whitebeard's territory, he had no problem conquering it, and is now a peer alongside Shanks and the other Yonkou. Apparently Luffy tires of his talk with Jinbei, and soon discovers Caribou, who tried to capture Shirahoshi. The swamp-man escapes, tamatebako in hand. It's at that moment when the royal guards appear, and reveal that Hody and his group have all turned into old geezers. The tamatebako was the source of the Energy Steroids.
-Another soldier mentions that an envoy from Big Mom's crew arrived and is expecting a candy offering, but their supply was exhausted during the previous chapter's celebration. The right minister then considers making an excuse to the pirate empress, in order to quell her wrath....
...Wow. The amount of info this chapter is totally staggering. The names of all ancient weapons, the reveal of the hinted "marine incident", Blackbeard becoming emperor, ES coming from the tamatebako (anyone still thinks that's the key to Shira joining now? :p) And an envoy from Big Mom..... of course, we predicted most of these events already, but it's still awesome, nonetheless. I wonder if this means that Aokiji joined Dragon after leaving the marines.....
Man, I can't wait for this chapter....! :D
UPDATE: THIS CHAPTER WILL BE RELEASED IN A DOUBLE ISSUE, WHICH MEANS THERE WILL BE NO CHAPTER NEXT WEEK, SO DO NOT EXPECT TO SEE A NEW THREAD UNTIL THE WEEK AFTER NEXT INSTEAD.
