Brook knows what's up. He'll probably drop one hell of an exposition dump next week involving the Vinsmokes.
They don't sound like Celestial Dragons, but they clearly have a lot of pull in the World Government.
Ooh, I'm getting all excited.
Sanji confirmed to be one of the ancient weaponsIf Brook knows who they are then they must have been around for a long time.
Absolutely, less than a theory, it were facts based on what we were told by the manga. Remember that the Blues are not really connected and that Reverse Mountain where all blues lead to only flows into the Grandline. One would need to cross the Redline to get from North to East. The moment Sanji mentioned he was from the North Blue fans had their ears up, because he was obviously in the East Blue for a while when Luffy met him. So people already speculated early on how he got there.
And people actually got early on on his noble heritage, as usual, everything was always there, put there by Goda.
It can't be stated enough how much of a genius Goda is, the fact that Sanji has never seen a mermaid before should have no importance whatsoever, but look at it now.
Yeah people said Sanji could have only gone through Mariejoa and not Fishman Island to cross the Redline since he never saw Mermaids before that.

I've wondered for a while now why the marines don't just set up a base or something at Reverse Mountain. They do it at Fishman Island for pirates going into the New World but most pirates are weaker when just entering the Grand Line and it's nowhere near as spacious so it would be difficult for them to escape.
Sanji's useful again.
But it's too late now. He lost his place in the monster trio.
Where are you guys seeing him use haki though?
In the span of one chapter
Sanji proclaimed luffy pirate king(love when the crew does it)
Admitted he knew along about his family
Managed to flip the situation into his favor so he wasn't a hostage after all(thank god)
Showed some good observation haki
Saved his crewmates
All while leaving a sanji style note haha
Wheres the one that called him a jobber again
Oh, I see it now.Knowing Neko was right outside.
Will be his first instance of usefulness since Fishman Island.Brook...you got some splaining to do.
Praise be, praise be
Oh my god Sanji was actually cool again.
Oh my god a strawhat is getting character focus.
it's a Year of Sanji miracle.
I'm guessing most of their resources are stuck in the New World dealing with the big names so they can't afford it. Besides, the Grand Line itself takes care of most of the pirates for them.
EDIT: Now that I think of it, what you're describing was basically Smoker's job when we first met him.

Man this is really building up to be something big. Sanji's family definitely seems to be more crime family then noble at least from the way ti sounds. Also him crossing over from North Blue to East Blue definitely sounds like a story on its own.
Also, this arc seems to be heavily hinting that Luffy is facing off against Big Mom first.
I imagine that Sanji would have crossed the red line at a completely different point though. Pretty sure Mariejois and FI being the only crossing points only applies if you're crossing from the grand line
Great chapter overall but the wait is killing...Sanji said the same thing as zoro did before his sacrifice on thriller bark.
It's possible. I kind of thought they were going to reveal that, if even with a few words. It's interesting that the same has meaning but they didn't specify. I'm going to say since he was born in North blue that a world noble family would have been on the Red Line instead but that's just speculation. I think they are some kind a powerful family but maybe not World Noble.Sanji is the best. It seems like he may actually be a world noble.
It seems like it could be Sanji's impel down instead of an Enies Lobby type situation. Zoro gonna be all like, "if he can't sort something small out like this himself then he doesn't deserve to a member of your crew." Then Law is going to be like, "yo dudes did you realise that Kaidou's main fleet is here and they look angry by the way did you know that I don't like bread." Sanji and Caesar are going on a buddy film adventure.
Zoro would be the first one to go after Sanji if he feels that he is in a tight situation. Come on.

btw. can we talk about this gain:
Sanji has always been awesome, now he is Ace level awesome.
Dead man walking.
No one dies in OP except Ace and WB, and those are very rare exceptions.
Obviously during flashbacks it's different.
