I suppose last chapter should have said it all but looks like we'll get the separation arc characters for cover pages which is great. I like how Franky outfitted that lion to look like Sunny and the gorilla to look like him. That lion looks like that fire lion from Pokemon. Or maybe that gorilla was his prototype and once he got all the kinks out applied it to himself? That snow waiver looking thing, it probably originated with the locals but I wonder if Franky has anything to do with that one as well? The snake has been outfitted to look like an eastern dragon, wonder what was Franky's inspiration there? I really like how the slim eye piece/visor is basically a requirement for these cyborg animals.
I know last week people wondered why Robin wasn't being targeted more often by big players for Poneglyph deciphering and after learning what we did in last chapter it seemed obvious to me that was exactly why they were after Momonosuke and his men.
I see a female ninja in Kinemon's head! Those guys look just detailed enough to end up as real named characters that might have designs that are more or less finalized.
I teared up for Momo, I laughed at Law, but the best part was Luffy saying Sanji was worth a thousand people and Zoro not being able to let that stand, hahaha! Nami humoring him about it was great!
Jack being alive and coming back was inevitable. The only people that need to see Jack defeated is the Minks, him being completely killed by the Marines was never going to happen before a defeat right in front of the people he wronged. Wanda being certain he wasn't dead and Luffy basically promising to kick his butt spelled it all out. When the main characters make certain declarations its almost a promise by Oda in this story and I love it. Not to mention he has a billion berry bounty, the highest we've seen in the story so far. Subordinate or not, Jack would be the strongest on the island and will get taken out by Luffy or at the very least an Oars style group effort, though i doubt thats necessary. Only thing I was wrong about was Ginrummy and Sheepshead reporting back to Jack that the Straw Hats landed on Zou. I thought for sure Jack would be back specifically because of that, but looks like he's back for his own reasons and his underlings were too afraid to even tell him the truth.
I know some folks still think Luffy will leave but Pekoms was really torn up about what happened to his home land. He is not leaving with Luffy while the trouble maker is back again. Also the Mink's are weakened and have only had 3 days of recovery time. While I'm sure Cat and Dog can still fight, not only are their wounds still serious enough that they shouldn't be doing major activity they each lost a limb. And unlike Kyros, they don't have the benefit of being toyified and having the limb magically "cauterized". Dogstorm and Catviper still have some tricks no doubt, we'll see them go Full Moon at night fall but they won't be enough to stop Jack I'm positive. Then you have the Samurai who are honor bound to protect them and return the favor, I think the Mink's should just kick back and enjoy the show.
