One Piece 705 Spoilers!!! One Piece 705 Prediction and Discussions!!!

One Piece 704 "Lucy and the Statue of Kyros" Summary:

Luffy is nearly kicked out of the waiting room for starting a fight before the tournament, but is defended by a trio of warriors called the Chinjao Family. Luffy thanks them but one member rejects his gratitude too seriously and tries to attack Luffy while being restrained by his team. One by one, famous warriors from different countries and organizations are introduced as having come to participate in the tournament; the contestants are shown to be organized into four blocks, A to D, with Block A announced to go into a battle royale.

Luffy, after hearing that he will be fighting in Block C proceeds in the armory to gear up for the fight, but is told to remove some of his armor for exceeding the weight limit. The famous beautiful pirate Cavendish makes an entrance, and proceeds to explaining to Luffy (not realizing his identity) the rules of entertainment in the Colosseum, the nature and appeal of bloodsport, his past as a world-shaking pirate and lastly his intent to kill the eleven supernovas for stealing his spotlight two years ago.

While Luffy stares in awe at a great bronze statue of a warrior, a gladiator, Rebecca, arrives and explains to him the legend of Kyros the Undefeated who disappeared from battle for 20 years. The announcer then calls out that the Block A battle royale is over and a champion has been decided, a large man with a paper bag over his head. To the spectacle of the entire Colosseum, the man removes the bag and reveals himself to be Jesus Burgess, the captain of the first ship of the Blackbeard Pirates, who gestures and cheers over the broken bodies of his opponents.

Oda is setting up quite a few plot threads in this arc. Most of the "notables" mentioned in this chapter will be beaten without much fan fare, but there a few people to watch. Cavendish will not win but he probably won't be a pushover, and Rebecca is definitely someone to keep an eye on. Even Bellamy the Hyena is in the tournament. I guess Doflammingo decided to spare him. Lastly and perhaps even more importantly, the Blackbeard Pirates made their presence known with Burgess being in the competition for the Mera Mera fruit. It's unlikely Burgess is acting alone, so other Blackbeard pirates might be popping up soon. I wonder what Doflammingo's crew about the Blackbeard Pirates' participation in the game. All of this possibilities set up for a pretty exciting competition, and we still Zoro, Sanji and all of the other Straw Hats/allies having to go about their adventures too.

One Piece 705 Spoiler Trivia: Luffy’s number is 0556. Luffy was born on May 05, so that explains the “05″ part, and 5-6 is actually go-mu in japanese, which makes sense coz Luffy is rubber (gomu), so that explains the “56″ part. Lucy = rushi (in japanese pronunciation), to honor Master Roshi (Luffy is also disguised, just like Master Roshi was). ~bzbo9
