well, he can't be *so* weak, he had no problems shooting away a 55 million captain. and he doesn't seem too afraid of having two 200~ murders on his crew. I'm guessing a "power level" of 90 mil. or 5.

Also, shouldn't Chopper be the least likely out of the group to be tricked by the fake crew? He has the superior smelling ability like any other animal in a shounen.

it's chopper, he most likely to be tricked by a stone. and besides, Luffy has a better 'animal sense' than him.

Franky looks like a tank, haha I love it (why do I still picture him wearing speedos though?).

Luffy is about to make Fake Luffy and his crew faint with a glare haha.

So, bloody, epic!

Nami, Robin, good god! =D

And way to go Usopp!

Cant wait to see Zoro. =D

no one commeted on nicos cucumbenis?

Ussopp seemed to fool both Luffy and Chopper easily enough with his Soge King disguise.

The fake SH crew thing gives us an idea of just how notorious Luffy (and the rest of the crew to an extent) really are considered, even after 2 years of being MIA. Luffy's actions and lineage are still prominent in people's minds. Not just civilians but also the marines as well.

I wonder what rank Momonga is now. He's added a hat to his outfit which makes me wonder if he even changed ranks. He was my first guess for who would be promoted to admiral to fill in the blank but we'll see.

And goddamn that faux Robin is so nasty looking. That big ass cucumber-dick-dildo thing at the end was just wtf...

I like how Oda mirror-ed the color spread with the very first one.

Nami and Luffy at least.

She's just holding a cucumber....
The fake Chopper-fox is hilarious. It'd be interesting to see what fake Brooke would look like, but I don't even think Brooke has been publicly recognized as a Strawhat crew member yet. Hell, I don't think he's been recognized as anything since his resurrection kicked in.

Nice find Zell, that also works well to compare how much bigger Nami's breasts got

Pretty nostalgic how different the art is from when it started.

Why does Franky's new look remind me of Diamond Jozu? He looks like a cyborg that could fight with Kuma.

holy shit i can't wait till luffy owns these clowns

It kind of looks like Robin isn't wearing any underoos...

This chapter was such a tease!! But it's good to see it back.
The "Straw Hat Pirates" are quite funny, with the character designs and more wtf than anything.

When I first read the chapter I was thinking of how Luffy was going to react and thought of how Shanks reacted to the bandits in the bar back when Luffy was a kid. Although, he probably will do the oblivious thing.

Next chapter shall be good!

if luffy knocked this guy over by just bumping into him (purposely?) he probably isn't tooooo tough

i wonder if fake luffy recognized real luffy?

hey you guys see where usopp's head is on page 16 bottom right panel?

I was just about to comment on that. That lucky bastard! >_<

The cucumber scene on page 20 Mangstream looks ridiculous :D, 63 cents says they use a different angle for the anime.

Hehe, fake Luffy also has an "X" scar on him. Maybe he's not random fodder after all.

Why did the dialog bubble cover Sanji's crotch on page 17?

I don't think Luffy's gonna intentionally kick anyone's ass next chapter. He might get confused by fake Sogeking and fake Franky, since Luffy is the only one besides Chopper to be tricked so easily, but eventually the whole fake crew including the new recruits will be stomped down hard in a showdown after the real crew is reunited.

What better way to showcase everyone's new abilities?

thanks for the upload.

the new chars look weird.

Except it kind of takes away from the badassery to have to whole crew team up against weaklings.
