One Piece 594: Message
The Five Elder Stars are having a meeting.
Redline, the holy city of Mariejoa, The Room of the Five Elder Stars
ES1: Well, this Strawhat Luffy is never short of news is he?
Though oddly understandable, considering he's the grandson of Grap.
ES2: How is he connected with Rayleigh...? I can't believe he is coming back out to the stage of history after all these years.
ES3: And Jinbei is completely turned against us now. We were hoping for him to become the symbol of peace between the races... it's too bad.
ES4: The balace of the three powers is in shambles. How should we fill in the three vacant seats for the Seven Warlords?
ES5: We should wait till the forces in the New World make their moves. Surely the faction territories amongst the pirates will change.
We must choose someone more influential...
ES1:In the New World, Blackbeard is already on his move.
I heard one of those 100million+ rookie was taken out by him already.
ES2: No surprise, he knows Whitebeard's territory very well.
ES3: Amongst the pirates going after Whitebeard's vacant seat, I'd say Blackbeard is leading one stop ahead.
There's never been a person who ate two devil friuts reported in history.
ES4: The only one capable of stoping him would be.... one of the Four Emperors. (rest cut off)
ES5: The "D"s always causes trouble...! Just like Portgas.... (rest cut off)
Meanwhile, in Marine HQ....
Brandnew is reporting Strawhat Luffy's infiltration of Marineford.
Luffy, along with Rayleigh and Jinbei, suddenly appeared at Marineford, and took over a marine ship.
They sailed and circled around Marineford once, in a tradition of "water funeral".
Then Luffy boldly infiltrated the plaza alone, and went to the Ox bell and rang it 16 times.
Then he tossed a bouquet into the ruin of the plaza, and bowed his head in prayer.
At Kong's office, Sengoku is meeting with the World Government Commander-in-Chief Kong.
Apparently Sengoku is resigning from his position.
It seems Garp has alrady visited Kong to do the same.
Kong convinced both of them to stay with the marines to train the younglings.
He is saddened to see two marines who led the force at the frontlines since Roger's age stepping down.
Sengoku agrees to stay in the marines keeping the title, but recommends Aokiji as the next Fleet Admiral.
Meanwhile, at the medic room, Coby and Helmeppo are recovering.
The doctor tells Coby the symptoms he is suffering is a form of haki.
He explains that Vice Admiral class marines all can use haki.
Coby feels uncomfortable about the "strong presence of others" he is feeling.
The doc tells him to go learn more about haki from Garp, so that he can control it.
Helmeppo seems jealous that Coby is a step ahead of him, and wants to catch up.
At Aokiji's office, Smoker is chatting with Aokiji.
Aokiji wonders what Luffy's "Sixteen Bell" message means.
Smoker doesn't care, and asks him what happened to his request to be transferred.
Aokiji tells Smoker he must be nuts wanting to go to G5. It's infamous for problems.
Marine GS 5th division... otherwise known as the New World outpost.
Meanwhile the New World is in turmoil....
Several Supernovas have arrived at various islands.
Hawkins: I'm sorry, can you repeat that? I couldn't hear you well.
Brownbeard: I said, I am BROWNBEARD! The almight Brownbeard, with bounty of 80 million!!!
Remember my name!! This is MY territory!!
Hawkins: Oh, I see. Your name is so stupid, I thought I heard you wrong.
Let me tell you two things.... first, I hate jokes.
Brownbeard: Joke!?
Hawkins: And second.... I see death in your future.
Enraged by this, Brownbeard pulls out a knife to attack Hawkins... bad move.
Capone is eating a meal in his ship, when... a massive black ball in the sky gravitates his ship to it.
With some screams, the ship is engulfed into the Gantz... I mean black ball. (and according to the summary, crushed)
Luffy is on the Amazon Lily ship, being tendered by the amazons.
He apologizes to them for making them sail so long.
He asks them what they are doing (pinching him and stretching him)
They are watching over Luffy so he stays put to heal his wounds, by the order from Hancock.
Hancock is resting after being so excited over Luffy.
Luffy wonders if his crew got his message.
Meanwhile, around the world, the Strawhats are reading the papers.
Chopper: I get it Luffy!! I understand your message!!
Franky is seen with half his face blown off, and other parts of his body damaged.
Zoro is the only one who seems to be confused (according to the summary) reading the news.
back to the supernovas...
Kid is seen crucifying a pirate who dared to fight them.
The pirates say they where just about to leave the New World, and plead mercy to let them go so they can return to "paradise".
He says he is disappointed that this is what New World has to offer... cowardly, weak pirates.
Kid is reading the newspaper, and sees Luffy infiltrating the Marineford again.
The meaning of the bell is explained by Killer.
Normally, you ring 8 times at the end of the year.
Then 8 times again at the start of the year.
Ringing the bell total of 16 times is a traditon of the marines.
In other words... the bell is a symbol of ending and starting of an era.
Kid wonders if that's Luffy's message to the world that the era belongs to him now.
His crew tells him it has to be a reason like that, if he was willing to go back and face his trauma of losing his brother.
Urouge and his crew find themselves stumped in front of an island they cannot enter.
Is the log pose really pointing to that island...!?
You have to be kidding me, how are we supposed to land on that!?
The island is under constant bombardment of lightning strikes.
An old woman appears, and offers umbrellas.
Those in the New World refer to the first half of Grandline as... the Paradise.
