He'll awaken the true power of the Conquerer's haki or something, something only Roger achieved and then kick his ass.

Time to quote this from page 150 regarding Luffy consuming a second Devil Fruit. Obviously this is no truth (which nobody knows yet), but I'm personally sold.

This analysis is by 홍이D and i'm pretty much providing here an extremely paraphrased/summarized version of it.
Reasoning:
1) On an SMS, a reader points out that all the strawhat devil fruits can be numbered (gomu -- (5,6), hito -- (1,10), hana -- (8,7), yomi (4,3)). From this, missing is 2,9 -- "Nikyu". the reader asks if this means Kuma will be joining Strawhats -- Oda responds by saying he's surprised, but his response is "no comment"
2) Blackbeard and Luffy are polar opposites (bunch of evidence, blah blah). From this, notice how Luffy's Gomu Gomu would "counter" Blackbeard's Gura Gura -- basically, rubber would handle being shaken quite a bit better. This is followed by oda reasoning that he has thought very thoroughly giving Luffy the rubber fruit and there's a specific reason for it (for example, luffy survives many situation because he is rubber).
Because of this, Luffy still needs a way to counter Blackbeard's Yami fruit, which pulls things in with Gravity. Notice how Kuma's Nikyu fruit "repels" -- the fruit is a polar opposite of what the Yami fruit essentially does.
Essentially, it'll be a battle between Gravitation versus Repulsion, which makes sense.
Kuma works closely enough with Vegapunk, and given Kuma helping out Luffy -- one of the conditions could be a way to pull out the devil fruit from Kuma at one point and giving it to Luffy (this part is speculation)
Dunno I thought it was really fascinating -- that Luffy will find "some way" of getting this second devil's fruit :O
While we're at it, might as well refresh more memories.

Translations on mangareader are being updated, the current chapter, wich was really bad at the beginning of the week, is quite better now (but this page is still pretty bad though ... http://i999.mangareader.net/one-piece/698/one-piece-3895269.jpg ).
Anyway I'd like to know TL opinion on wich site has the best translations ?

He said US readers. Mangastream doesn't load for US readers. I use Mangahit, basically mangapanda scans but better subs.
