It's like substituting ever instance of that person's name with "someone". i think that would cause too many problems, and then curos wouldnt be considered as just a fairy tale, Dofla didnt come taht long ago so people would have remember that the super gladiator existed

according to what we know, the legendary gladiator Kyros dissapeared 20 years ago. We dont know if this means that he quit the colusseum 10 years prior to Doffys invasion (wich happened 10 years ago) to raise a family with scarlett, but still 20 years is a long time in the world of OP.

When something on One Piece is said to have happened 20 years, more or less, prior to the story, I always wonder if Oda will eventually throw in some attachment to Gold Roger. Like for example, I'm almost sure that Robin's mother had some connection with Roger, since she returned to Ohara 22 years in the past from where the story is right now from a voyage she was on, which is also the time when Roger was executed. Additionally Releigh seems to have good knowledge of Ohara and the archeologist there, and they knew how to write in that ancient script.
Anyway, tldr anyone else think Kyros might have some Roger ties?

Usopp the Brave who is going to stand up to Trebol by himself after he just watched him chunk a boat into the building he was in. That doesn't sound like the same character who has been talking about running away at the first sign of danger ever since the Dwarfs started idolizing him.
He's also the same person that is willing to die in order to uphold what he considered is justice. He didn't run away from Luffy when they fought, he stood there and fought like a man till the bitter end.

He didn't run away from Luffy when they fought, he stood there and fought like a man till the bitter end. Usopp has ALWAYS stood to fight when his crewmates are present to back him up, or someone that he considers to be a crewmate is threatened (Going Merry (and himself, indirectly) in your example) or insulted in some way. However, those situations aren't comparable to this one at all, because in practically all other situations, when Usopp is isolated against a superior opponent, his #1 go-to strategy is run the fuck away until he sees an opening, then run away some more. So here, he shouldn't remember Robin anymore, and hes isolated against two superior oppenents, and they haven't started mouthing off about Luffy. So Usopp is going to run like hell, maybe attack when pushed into a corner or thinks there is an opening, then run more. Because thats how Usopp fights.

Pretty random here I thought it was a typo at first I waited till a better translation came out first but I found it funny that they spelled "Doflamingo" for Kinemon "Doflaemon." + Show Spoiler +

+ Show Spoiler +Usopp cuts trebol in half at the end of this chapter, so it seems likely that he is a logia.
Also, as expected there is no chapter for flamewheel next week

This is what happens:
+ Show Spoiler +Chapter 741 - Usoland the Liar The cover is Straw Hat crew in military camos
Usopp runs, wondering how the hell to get out of there. He's still blaming Franky. Trebol grabs a receiver for the PA system and yells out to the whole facility for the toys to stop gawking and get back to work. The toys realize there's a revolt going on, and hopes for success. The fallen Tontattas are munbling Usoland's name. Trebol and Sugar wonders who that is, and Leo screams USOLAND! He tells Trebol that that's the name of the legendary hero who will save the whole country, to which Trebol laughs. After hearing their tale, he tells them that's all a lie. Whoever this Usoland guys is, he's a coward and must have already ran off. Usopp hears the conversation, and confirms Trebol's suspicions are correct.
But the Tontattas do not back down, Leo tells him Usoland will keep his promise and come kick his ass. Trebol stomps on Leo. Then as other Tontattas cry in support of Leo's claim, he walks around stomping on all of them, making them squeal under his feet.
That's enough!! Usopp comes out of hiding. He screams at the Tontattas that Trebol is right... he has been lying all this time! He's not a hero, nor is his name Usoland. I am Usopp, the sniper of the Straw Hats. A pirate! Leo asks him but he's still a hero, right? Usopp replies, no, he's no hero, he's a pirate. Trebol asks him if he's come back just to confirm his lies, and Usopp said he'd rather gamble his life here than to live with this on his conscious. Remember my name, it is USOPP! And if I die here, build a statue of me next to Noland! I'll become your "legendary hero" here and now! All the toys at the factory hears his speech, the man who will be their hero.
Usopp attacks Trebol with Shurikens (Plantanas Shruiken?) made out of plants, which seems to have chopped Trebol in half! (although he's likely a logia...)
Meanwhile in the room of Suits as Luffy, Violet, and Kyros waits for their opportunity, Kyros finds a good sword to use. Violet explains to Luffy how Kyros was in the tournament, and Kyros' flashback begins.
A young boy named Kyros, age of 15, murdered someone in the slums. The king and his men come to arrest him, and he attacks King Riku. (Kyros looks like young Dragon btw) As the guards try to fire upon Kyros, the king stops them. He asks Kyros to come with him. Enraged Kyros had committed murder to avenge the death of his friend. He must fight in the Coliseum to win his freedom. A hundred win is needed for it.
In matter of 4 months he has earned his freedome with one hundred victories. But he has grown to like the Coliseum, as he is wanted and needed there. He chooses to stay.
He continues to build victories after victories, and contestants from all over the world come to challenge Kyros. He fought giants, and even Fishmen underwater. After 4 years, he has reached the heights no gladiator has ever seen... 1000 victories.
Kyros visits his friend's grave, and meets King Riku there. He burst in tears saying no matter what he does the rest of his life, he is remembered as a murderer. He wishes people would just forget about him entirely...
Ironically, the wish of his youth was granted decades later, in the worst possible way.
End of chapter
No chapter next issue.

Why is it always flamewheel who must suffer the most ?
|
these chapters lately are so fucking boring
|
woot usopp!! and that backstory is pretty nice Curos or however you spell it seems pretty badass
|
Okay, normally I am tolerant; but I wish they would stop just cutting away from a fight after they've started and established who's fighting who. Like two weeks in a row, Zoro now Usopp. :/
|
goddamn next week off oh man.
|
this chapter was so good.

I think it's just you man. I like me some flashback and some Usopp. Like 2 of my favourite things in OP.
EDIT: I get it about the "fight cutaways", but obviously these aren't really the fights we're meant to be watching yet. They're just keeping characters "occupied" whilst more important things happen. The freeing of the toys is the focus of this point, hence the focus on Usopp and Curos.

hmmm .. i'll still have to see the next few chapter what happens
|
shirahoshi genuinely scary as fuck
|
Time for Usopp to shine .
