Welcome to the weekly manga discussion thread for One Piece.

As promised, here's the early Golden Week spoiler, peeps! Credit goes to the usual dudes from 2chan and AP for summary and translation:
-Chapter title is "CANDY". Ministory features Magellan, who is now apparently the vice-warden of Impel Down (well goddamn, there goes the theory of him becoming a marine...... :().
-It seems that the samurai has disappeared while searching for his torso, so Zoro, Sanji (who's still in Nami's body), and Brooke set out to look for him. Suddenly, the large children are in pain. It's revealed that the kids were given some sort of candy during their experiments, and it acted as their medicine. However, Chopper disagrees with their treatment method, saying that he detected some stimulant in their bodies after examining them. Because the kids missed out on their treatment, they start to go berserk, and Usopp is forced to sedate them with a Sleep Star. It's then revealed that the giant kids were all normal sized before they came to PH. Chopper suspects that the island's master was responsible for their abnormal growth.....
-Back to Zoro's group, the three of them are revealed to be passed out in the snow. Nearby are some giant footprints. The scene then changes to CC's lab, where Law is seen handing the scientist Smoker's heart as a "gift". He then asks him what he'll do about the Straw-Hats, and Caesar answers that he sent the appropriate forces to deal with them: The hitmen of the snow mountain, the "Yeti COOL BROTHERS". We then see the brothers in question, who both seem to be twin giants with guns strapped to their backs.....
Hey, looks like I was right after all about the Straw-Hats encountering some yetis in the cold part of the island! :) And these guys must be pretty danged tough if they managed to knock out two of the monster trio (granted, one of them isn't in his original body at the moment, but still). And we finally learn the truth about the giant kids, as well. Still have no idea what motive CC has in experimenting on some innocent kids, though.
Still, I'm actually a bit disappointed about the ministory. I was so sure that Magellan would have joined the marines during the skip. But I guess his lingering injuries from the time of the war prevented him from stepping into the "front lines", so to speak. Oh well, maybe Luffy will revisit ID at a later point so he can have a proper rematch against the poison man.....
