Ok fine then I will. I mistyped my words. What I meant to say was the story hasn't had anything large or life changing for the SH crew to happen to them up until now. And yes I've done my research in past chapters, trust me I have. There isn't anything large or life changing(which needed to badly happen to this series. Up until now.

How many times do I have to say it. This needed to happen. It was huge on many different levels. It's going to open up a whole new type of story type in the series. Oda will be able to do anything he wants now w/o repercussions. Even though you all loved him anyway for what he was writing. And even I did, still do always will. He's great. But, you guys seem to think I'm knocking his skill and talent or something. I'm not I love the series every time another chapter comes out. But in all honesty, I'm a powerhouse whore. Here's what I mean.

I love the story a lot, but when the series comes down to it, I'm all about the most powerful, fastest, biggest crew, strongest (without even trying) guys. I mean I can't even discuss humor with you guys normally. I don't know how. If it isn't about really powerful fights or guys, I don't bother posting. Simple as that. Also, I don't even read all of the chapters all the way through. I've literally had to go back over and read over chapters you guys have read, in normal sequential order. I didn't.

You guys read through the TB arc. I read the end when the Oz fight started and shit got interesting with Luffy and Moria one on one. And when Kuma came.

You guys watched and read through Water 7. I skipped right to the Lucci V Luffy fight and the rest of the SH's fighting the CP9.

The only one I've ever read and kept up with, was the Skypiea arc, and the current archipelago arc. That's it. Only two. And the only reason it's been interesting now is because of the really strong crews and captains reeking havoc with Kizaru doing his fair share of damage. So basically I'm glad to see some powerful guys come in a just sweep the place. Even Kizaru and Silvers are just standing there. Something needed to happen.

Plus. Am I the only one who thinks that Luffy is going to come out totally ready for the NW after this? Now that needed to happen in one way or another for Luffy to move on to the NW. Even knowing Shanks he wouldn't have been ready because he wouldn't know Luffy was there and is probably too deep to help him or congratulate him yet. So I think we're going to see something new come out of him before he arrive with his crew to the NW. I'm not saying a new attack, but hell even a gear 4 might do the trick. Who knows.
