I thought Bobbin would be a bigger deal since he allegedly soloed a country earlier but I guess he's just another underling. Guess it just goes to show how strong yonko crews are.

I think Pudding is evil. Consider what we know. Pudding met Luffy, and they agreed to meet at the coast of Whole Cake Island with Sanji. While obviously that didn't happen, we also now know that promise was impossible to start with, and Pudding would have known that. At the time Sanji was with the Vinsmokes, afterall.

Yet someone else DID know about that meetup point. There was a doppleganger of Sanji waiting on the coast, tricking them onto the island, luring Luffy into a trap in the Seducing Woods, and his eventual battle with Cracker. The only way this could have happened would be if Pudding set them up.

And now, when Sanji is backed into a corner and needs to go help Luffy... Pudding comes in hot to seduce him, and convince Sanji to go forward with the marriage. I suspect the goal here would be keeping Sanji from going to help Luffy, and ultimately leaving the crew and become part of Big Mom's, as a backup plan in case Luffy overcomes the Army that has come after him.

Ugh, I hate it all. Sanji being scorned by a woman like that seems too cruel. ~_~ But it's One Piece and I feel like thats probably where this'll end up since their romance being real seems a little out of the pace of One Piece, I suppose they could stay engaged while he goes off but that feels unlikely.

I dunno. I hope shes not evil, but I think a fair amounts points to her being fucking Hitler McSatan and it starts to make me hate her already.

At the very least, whatever she is doing right now is antagonistic to the Strawhats. MAYBE Sanji will pull another Viola, and get her to change sides, so to speak. But right now, this is a Sanji vs Pudding fight, and Pudding is winning.

I mean how does Sanji win against a nice pretty lady?

I'm actually legitimately curious about Zef's situation and whether or not we're going to see him come through during this arc in person or if hes gonna be on Den Den Mushi or something. I mean they cant bring him up and not have him either kick some Germa ass or do SOMETHING to prove hes safe, right?

It would serve the story well for Pudding to be evil and would make sense though I don't want it to be true. Pudding seems to the be first woman Sanji has actually connected over more than just lust. Heck Viola only ended up trusting Sanji because she read his mind and found out he was pervert not a schemer. Robin and Nami ignore Sanji or manipulate him which to be fair is mostly because Sanji can't talk to them normally. Pudding seems to be the first one Sanji actually connects with over their shared prisoner like situation.

Pudding is definitely manipulating Sanji into going through with the marriage. She's not actually done anything 'good' as of yet. As pointed out, she did lure them into the ambush in the forest with the promise of Sanji being there.

Oh and Sanji's reasoning is retarded.

It'd be awesome if Luffy pulls a "Guts" and is the last man standing in the morning.

Was half expecting some "next nakama" stuff. Last year's trend? I'm out of the loop.

Big Mom does seem to have a tendency of producing horrible children, but Lola wasn't that bad, so... *shrug*

Prediction time.

Luffy solo the army.
Big ma goes into a rage.
Sanji saves the day by making a dish nobody else can make
You figure out what happens next, probably solves everything just like that

Calling it. It's the only way out of this situation

judges comment "i gurantee it will be a day none of us forget" makes me think that the conspiracy is gonna explode tomorrow during the ceremony, maybe something like an assasination attempt on Mama, he may want her fruit to put souls into his mass produced dolls

im guessing Luffy is going to be fighting solo all night against the army then theres gonna be some huge explosion or something and the army is gonna go "oh shit WTF was that" and leave to figure out what happened and then Luffy follows to get sanji out of there

The one thing I'm worried about is that this becomes some Naruto-esque stuff with Luffy fighting 15 people and an army in a row but plot armor taking him through. I don't believe Oda is the type, but so far he's beaten a Yonko's right hand man, taken a beating from Sanji and now he's fighting an army. Yet he's nowhere near reaching Sanji and presumably will have to fight Big Mom at the end. He will have help no doubt, since that is what One Piece does, but as it stands he shouldn't be able to survive another fight. Hopefully Oda doesn't forget about that.

As for Pudding, how possible is it that Sanji has already figured out that she's trying to screw them over? He's an intelligent man, he could have put the pieces together. Pudding told Luffy to meet her at the beach, but Cracker showed up. That's suspicious, no matter how you look at it.

I think someone is gonna knock his ass out and carry him outta there 'cause if the angry army is what Big Mom sends out when people beat her commanders surely the army itself must be stronger than a commander? So Luffy would likely stand almost no chance since he had a hard time with just Cracker let alone a follow up army.

I vote he gets knocked out and then the forest carries him elsewhere.

I'm 99% sure that the rest of what's going to happen in this arc will be due to the action of other people besides Luffy.

I think that Luffy is going to be a badass by really waiting for Sanji to come, without moving an inch. Sanji is going to be a badass by somehow resolving his problems (basically cuffs + zeff as hostage) and then coming back.

I also predict that Capone is going to make a move which stirs shit up, also there a few other wild cards which we aren't sure what are up to: Chopper, Carrot, Brook, Jaguar-guy, Jinbe and his crew. Pudding and Reiju are two other wild cards.

I predict something such as the end of Germa 66 and the BM crew losing whatever it is that allows them to hold Zeff hostage so easily.

If you look at it from Sanji's perspective, what he's doing makes sense. He shows that he's not willing to hit a woman, even if he dies. Because Zeff acknowledged him as his son. He'd rather die than see that acknowledgement go. He'd also rather leave the crew than see Zeff harmed. Sanji can't do anything because he doesn't know what asset precisely allows BM's crew to hold the Sword of Damocles over Zeff. Until he figures that out, he can't do anything.

Overall, a very amazing development here. This arc is nothing to sneeze at.

Really? You are worried about that? I'd never expect Oda to do such stupid things. It's clear that Luffy is at his limit and he definitely won't beat another commander without rest time.

Yeah I'm guessing that's what will happen to. We've all forgotten about Jinbei and he fits the description for that type of character.

Lola wasn't so bad, but she also left home. Maybe shes a runaway?

Great post, you really put my thoughts into words. I just wonder who all the players involved in the conspiracy are and what their trump card is. I mean they have HUGE balls to go after Big Mom and I guess they wouldn't do this without a good reason. The wedding has to have outside agents stirring stuff up since everyone from the Straw Hat crew has their hands tied up.

I can't recall who that Bobbin character is and if he's strong or not... can someone refresh my memory?

If hes who I think he is, hes one of Big Mom's subordinates with the mask. When Big Mom was first introduced, he was seen coming into her room, informing her that a country that couldn't pay its Sweets tax was destroyed.
