ONE PIECE 1072 SLAPS👏 HARD👏
This is the best chapter I’ve read in a while ! And that’s a feat because Egghead has been fantastic !
Spoilers under the cut. I might or might not have commented every panel.
> I am a sucker for narrative intros ! I am a sucker for narrative intros ESPECIALLY if they are extracted from a journal or diary. And this narrative intro is so full of emotions ! Good for you Vegapunk ! Go rock that science !
> It is ironic that MADS is called “Laboratory of Peace” when the previous page was basically this:
> The page displays each of the mad scientist with his preferred field of study.
> I doubt Vegapunk knew about what was going down in his “Lab of Peace”; he did hate what Ceasar did in Punk Hazard. So they probably hid it well or made it sound “for the better good and the advancement of science” like for the DFs reproduction. And it’s not like their founds were lacking : Du Feld kept on pumping money in because weapons made him good money.
> And it’s crazy how much info Oda can drop in a single panel because this one has every mad scientist with his preferred field in hand: Ceaser with the smile fruit, Queen with the chemical weapons, and Judge with the spear that ultimately became his weapon of choice. It even has the little yellow tube and all.
Picture from OP PIRATE WARRIORS 4.
> Then Bonney being a little shit and Vegapunk being a worried grandpa. Cute.
> This Bonney form reminds me of Luffy in his Nika form. It’s both funny and interesting because Bonney vibes well with Luffy and I like to think that they arrived to the same conclusions about what they should do with their fruits.
> Excuse me ??? This is too cute ???? I like that bonney is a strong powerful pirate but her power is still girly and cute ! Look at the cute stars ! And there’s a heart ! And look at Vegapunk he’s such a cute baby !!!
> I bet that Oda loves drawing Bonney, because every panel she’s in, she looks gorgeous.
> Ah yes, the classic juxtaposition of dramatic dialogue with a dramatic scene relating to that dialogue. :’)
> You can actually see how much Vegapunk cares for Kuma here. But still, very valid reaction from Bonney. You go girl !
> Vegapunk and Bonney are both growing on me more and more each chapter.
> I stared at those 2 panels for a good 30 seconds. I can’t even describe how they made me feel.
> Because of course... Because obviously... Obviously Kuma pushed out his own memories... This was so obvious and no one ever considered it. God fucking dammit Oda.
> I am still not sure about the origin of DFs. Maybe they are magical, maybe they are man made. But this dialog is very important because we might not understand how things happen, but we can study how they affect the world around them. That’s a cornerstone of science and i’m so happy with how it’s depicted.
Also:
> The greek alphabet is canon.
And
> World reknown scientist DR VEGAPUNK needs to draw a small circuit with coil and capacitator to remember his electro-magnetism rules. Can’t blame him.
> Oh Brook is in a shirt, that’s cute ! Keep up the theme of the island peeps !
> Kaku awakened his giraffe fruit ?? How ?? (Theory time: I’m betting it’s related to the nature of the fruit. Once you reach a certain level in power and creativity, you can awaken your fruit. And the wilder the strength it represents, the harder it gets. But if you’re like... a giraffe, that should be easier than a leopard.)
> Look mate, as long as the crew and VP’s Brain are safe, this is meaningless. But yeah sure have your fun destroying things !
> I am delecting myself with the taste of Stussy’s betrayal. This is a face a love seeing on Lucci. Hit him where it hurts <3
> And what a way to end a chapter. Vampire Stussy ? Or is she a succubus ? Hell yeah ! Of course she was the one Vegapunk called ! And of course she’s a clone ! Vegapunk mentionned that the Seraphim were the pinacle of all his experiences ! And they are CLONES ! So of course he cloned people !!! And the cover story from chapter 1070 ? That wasn’t Stussy ! That was Miss Buckingham !
Miss Buckingham, from the Rocks Pirates, WORKED WITH MADS!!!!
I can’t with this chapter anymore ! Thank you Oda !!!

Stussy is really my kind of character. She's beautiful, she's clever and more importantly she's got those "femme fatale" vibes I love so much!
She is dangerous, she's got her own agenda and I expect a lot from her! She seems to have eaten the Vampire Vampire Fruit and her powers are so cool!
Is she someone on Dragon's side? Does she work for herself? What does she want? Does she hold a grudge against the Five Elders for using her like a puppet?
She's surrounded by so many mysteries. Okay, she's a clone. The original Stussy used to be a pirate and a very powerful one. She got Whitebeard's attention.
And I don't believe just anyone can catch this man's attention. You must be quite special. Okay, their son isn't that awesome. Unlike Roger's and Oden's sons, Newgate's son doesn't look that great.
But you can't be Momonosuke or Ace!
My goodness! It's time for us to know more about Kaido's Big mom's Newgate's and Stussy's background, don't you think?

One Piece Manga Chapter 1072
huh... so we are actually going to get Weevil lore.... not even mad.
the man was being slept on by the fandom.
he was this walking plothole that people’s eyes just glazed over every time he was brought up.
so like... Stussy is a clone of Ms. Bakkin? That’ll explain the connection with MADs... (though i won’t be mad if Stussy is a clone of the witch from Wano)
It chunked in a solid connection between the Rocks Pirates and Vegapunk.
Also, where Whitebeard’s meds came from when he was sick (Whitebeard, a former member of Rocks’s Crew). It was made through the same labs making the Smiles. Former MADs Members, Caesar and Queen did most of the research. Doffy had direct oversight of the operations on Dressrossa (so his logo was on the product), and Stussy was one of the “crime bosses” helping with the black market end. And on top, yet an other former member of Rock’s crew, Kaido was funding it.
If the whole “Dragon is Rock’s Son” thing is true, then Dragon meeting Vegapunk as a kid/teen theory would become highly plausible. Vegapunk and Clover would’ve been on the seas the same time as Rocks and Roger. With all the more we learn about he people surrounding Rocks... it just all this “your heart is in the right place, but you are achieving your goals in the wrong way” vibes starting to waft off the man’s reputation. (He’s basically ending up a villain less-and-less like The Joker and more like Magneto)
