One Piece Eps 851-853

This week, the Straw Hats are riding a tidal wave of chaos—literally. With Pedro’s sacrifice still fresh, Jimbei takes the wheel (and the spotlight) as he navigates the crew through a giant candy tsunami using some insane ship-surfing skills to fake their deaths and give them a shot at escape. Meanwhile, Luffy’s stuck in Mirror World getting absolutely cooked by Katakuri, who’s making it very clear that he’s on another level. Outmatched and bloodied, Luffy orders Nami to destroy all the mirrors on the Sunny to prevent an incoming ambush, trusting that he’ll figure the rest out later. And over in Chocolate Town, Sanji’s gone full Iron Chef with Pudding and Chiffon, whipping up the ultimate wedding cake using nothing but his nose and a dream. Can they finish the bake-off in time to save the crew? Tune in to find out!

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Fuck you guys. What?
Wait. Well, hold on.
What's this about? You, you know damn well what
it's about. What?
No, I I wouldn't be asking you if I did.
What? What do you mean?
You went and recorded an episodebehind my back.
I wouldn't call it behind your back exactly.
I yeah, I don't, I don't know. Is it really behind your back if
we talk about it in the group chat where we group all our

(00:21):
recording stuff? What do you mean where brother?
Normally on Sundays you guys aredoing like movies and shit.
Why would I ever? Process that.
As we never do movie, well, I shouldn't say never, but we
haven't done movies on Sunday ina month, months.
We haven't done movies and even.And the name of the chat changes
every time too. Was there a chat?

(00:43):
Well, yeah, you changed it today.
No, I on Sunday when we recordedit was it was Sunday episodes,
whatever they were at 4:00 PM. You can go and check the logs
there too. Hold up, hold up.
I got the receipts. So Justin, me boy is it too late
to see if we could record these UPS around 4:00 PM?

(01:04):
Mind you, before that, no recordings.
I'm assuming fucking something else.
It's the It's the One Piece podcast.
I think so, Mom. Just woke up, what do you mean?
Say church and trip afterward. I think we should be OK.
Then the group chat changes the name, correct?
Perfect. All of this is on Sunday.

(01:25):
And that happened at 10:43 AM onSunday.
I'm not conscious. That's your problem, not mine.
I hate you did. You are you.
Were you not conscious the last four days?
Yes. Then super not my problem.
I'm glad you. Look super your.

(01:46):
Problem. Yeah.
Welcome back to the land of the living.
You can't stop me. I'm going back.
I'm not going to stop you. Come up.
I was going to say I'm I'm so happy to be here with two people
rather than just one but apparently I'm losing 1 again so
fuck me. No, I'll stay.

(02:18):
I'm really mad about it. All right, well.
Because it confused the shit outof me when I went to watch my
episodes thinking that we were starting at 8:51 and I went,
wait, that didn't happen. Wait a minute.
You're God damn right it didn't happen.
So I had to go back. How much time did you lose?
What did you lose? 4 minutes 5 What, how, how how
long did it take you to realize you you, you were watching the

(02:40):
wrong episode? 345 minutes.
I saw enough. Yeah, right.
So like a couple of minutes and then you realized, wait a
minute, I'm in the I'm I this isn't where I'm supposed to be.
Man's out here kind of thinking,acting like he lost half a day
to to to watching the wrong episodes.
Unlike me who blinks and forgot it was somehow Thursday and then

(03:02):
had to somehow cram a bunch of one piece in the span of an
hour. Yeah, you're barely any better.
Don't, don't I? I was going to leave you alone,
but if you want me to roast you too, I'll.
I'll fucking roast your sleepy. Ass myself, I don't need your
help, right? I'm announcing to the world what
an abject procrastinator slash failure I am, all right.
Great, I'm glad we're all on thesame page here.

(03:22):
This podcast makes me think I should go back to night shift.
I had so much time to do this stuff, even when I to
procrastinate. I don't do that.
That's objectively way worse foryou.
I'd do it for the right amount of money.
I mean, anyone would I I would also do it for the right amount
of money, but it would have to be a substantial amount of
money. I just need more.
More is more, that's all I know.Or is not more.
All right, I'm moving this on. Who's reading this summary?

(03:45):
Cool. I'll read it.
Great. You want something done, you got
to do it yourself. Got it.
Well. I I never said no, I was naked.
Silent for. I felt.
Like 30 seconds. Hailing with a sense of
reluctancy. But I never made a decision you
made it for. Us.
You're God damn right I did. I can.

(04:06):
I'll do it again. With Luffy stuck in Mirror World
with Katakuri, the rest of the crew mourns the death of Pedro.
As they sail away, Jimbey forcesthere was reinforces their
resolve, reminding them that failing to escape would put
Pedro's sacrifice in vain. Despite their best attempts, Big

(04:26):
Mom, Pero Sparrow, and others are gaining on their tail.
Jimbei does his best to steer the Sunny through enemy fire,
but they are eventually surrounded by a massive wave
caused by Big Mom and a Pero Sparrow Candy homie.
Everyone is too shocked to even form a thought as they are
presented with their imminent demise, but not Jimbei.

(04:47):
He single handedly sails the Sunny straight into the wave and
enters the green room, allowing the crew to seemingly fake their
death while staying perfectly safe.
Back in Mirror World, Luffy faces off against Katakuri and
A1 sided beat down totally in favor of Katakuri.
He nonchalantly expresses to Luffy that he is superior to him

(05:07):
in every way, and boy is he doing a good job of proving it.
No matter how fast he is, how hard he hits, or what gear he
picks, Luffy simply cannot lay ascratch on category.
Brulee returns to the fold and prepares to invade with the
Sunny with her siblings. Luffy desperately demands Nami
break all the mirrors on the Sunny to prevent the invasion.

(05:28):
No concern for how Luffy can possibly reunite with the crew.
Nami trust Luffy's conviction and follows the order.
Over on Chocolate Town, Sanji, Chiffon and Pudding successfully
sneak past all the town securityand secure themselves the
kitchen. Thankfully, they are not alone
as the whole cake 31 best chefs are standing by to bake some

(05:48):
cake while putting manipulates all their memories to avoid
arousing suspicion. Sanji goes over the cake recipe
with chiffon, which has been assembled and completely
memorized just by smelling the wedding cake earlier in the day.
This whole operation is going totake about two hours and 41 one
minutes to complete, and that's not even including the
decorations which Sandy plans ondoing during transport.

(06:11):
With such a series of ambitious tasks laid out in front of all
our pirate friends, how in the world do you think it's all
going to pan out? Pan out, but it's a cake, cake,
cake. Cake, cake, cake, cake.
I'm tired. I don't want to hear cake

(06:33):
anymore. I'm tired of it.
Tired. Of cake.
I'm not. I'm not tired of cake as a as a
concept. I'm tired of hearing big moms
yell wedding cake. I don't want it.
I hate it. I'm over it.
I'm so I was over it the first three times she did it and now
we've that were 9 episodes down the line from that.
No more keiki. So where do you want to start?

(06:55):
This week? We have three plot lines.
Cheers your own adventure, kids.I think, I think I want to start
with yeah, I think I'm going to start with Luffy getting his
shit rocked. Well, I, I, I kind of wanted to
talk about real quickly about Les.
Oh, that's a. Good point.
Yeah, let's, let's see what? Yeah.
Remind me what we did on Sunday.Well, Pedro fucking exploded.

(07:17):
He did I I was very underwhelmedby it.
What do you mean? In what way?
He's done it. Before OK, but he's not walking
back from this one. He's done.
Yes, but I agree. I agree.
Had the mirror world last time to save him.
That's what I mean. Like if they had not made him
wear a suicide vest again, like this would have been more

(07:40):
impactful. But like, because literally
they, they've shown him like, ah, I'm gonna, you know, blow
myself up again. It just, it took away from the
ACT. I feel so like this time when he
blew up, it's like, oh, like, Ohno, he's getting, he got like 3
flashbacks in a row back-to-backof like different historical

(08:00):
moments and that, you know, likedealing with the, the, the Gold
Roger, everything. I was like, OK, so he's
definitely like dying. Yeah, but like it.
They played the sad music, Devin.
I I don't care. No.
I was it took it me right out ofit was like, oh, he's he's he's

(08:21):
going to blow up. OK, cool.
He already he did that before already.
He's not going to do anything different.
OK, cool. I guess I'll feel kind of sad.
Look, I, I, I can see your criticism.
If he didn't blow up during the time the first time, I think I

(08:41):
would have been, you know, more like gasp.
But because he's blown up, been saved by a day of 6 machina just
to to do it all over again. It's like it's it's a 1 trick
pony annoying thing. I don't, I don't know it just
but it annoyed me. Now I I see your criticism as as

(09:04):
somewhat valid, however you already didn't like Pedro
anyway, so I'm taking your opinion with a grain of salt.
I'm. Glad he's in the coffin.
Yeah, that doesn't surprise. Why?
What do you mean you don't like Pedro?
Yeah, he he is never liked. Pedro, he was just a mech
character. You're a mech cast member.
You're both mech cast members and.

(09:24):
When when you wake up on time. I didn't fall asleep this week
so. This week is the operative
phrase here. Hey, listen, all right?
Compared to me and Devin Devin'sbatting 1000 when it comes to
taking naps and not waking up, all right?
What? Did did Did I miss a phone call?
Many, actually. Yeah, now you're just catching
up to him. It's a long way to catch up.
I think that I don't think it's as quite as.

(09:46):
Well, in the lead I got nothing.To worry about.
I don't know dude. You've missed a number of phone
calls too. Sitting for an hour calling
someone was. Your wife.
Last week I I remember that one too, yeah.
Me too to watch our Godzilla panda view that.
Anger episode, by the way. Yeah, I mean, I, I see, I see

(10:10):
what you're saying it, it makes sense in in some ways I, I get
that the fact that he's doing this again can can take away
from it a little bit, but I'm a,I'm a, I'm a bit of a Pedro guy
myself, so. The the only other thing I could
think of is that I, I feel so gaslit because of the fact of
how the like, how like we have to like see the signs now for

(10:35):
someone to actually die in the show where it's like, ah yes,
they get 4 different, you know, flashbacks.
They get, you know, the lots of exposition of people just
standing around doing nothing and just having their moment.
It's just like I just fucking explode and then have them
afterwards. Bro this is this is, this is the

(10:55):
most animated shit you're complaining about I've ever
heard. This is not a one piece a unique
trait. I know it's not, but it's just
as bad and I hate the troll where it's just like just just
fucking explode and then react. Why, why are we all reacting for
so goddamn long? Well, I mean, and then the fact

(11:17):
that like, you know, like it's more along the lines of like
they really had to like hammer it in that yes, he's dead
because, you know, the, the, theformula of he I is still strong.
And I hate that. I hate the fact that the he I is
so strong. Well, that's.
I'm just bitter over. I mean, unfortunately, that's,

(11:38):
that's what that's what one piece has done to us.
So I, I, I talked about this with, with Justin last time
about how I'm pretty sure Pedro is dead.
But if we get, if we get pelled again, then I'm not going to be
super surprised. I do hope Pedro stays dead.

(11:59):
For the record, I like I like Pedro, but I again, I do hope he
stays dead for the mere fact that we've reinforced
consequences. So I streamed the episodes like
like you know I typically do in the discord and my cousin was
very adamant that Pedro still alive and I was like dude he got

(12:20):
like 4 flashbacks like in the same episode he's dead.
He goes until I see a cooking corpse.
He is not dead. Yeah, I mean, unfortunately that
is the rule. That is, that is Dems the rules.
But then I was like, what if he comes back as like a Cyborg

(12:41):
like. Frank, he's the only one pulling
that off, right? That's Frankie.
What if, like fucking Vega? Punk.
That's de Pedro. It's not like I just started
making up nonsense like cannon of how he could not be dead.
Like he's definitely missed, butlike he's missing pieces.

(13:01):
Yeah, almost like Pero Sparrow, but not quite.
Pero Sparrow is missing an arm, but he should really be missing
a leg at least also. Yeah, I'm upset about that.
There is no reason he shouldn't also be missing a leg, so I'm
saying. Yeah, I I definitely feel like
Pero Sparrow should have both ofhis legs gone at a minimum.

(13:22):
I, I can't personally live with,you know, half and half, half
fully intact, half missing limb.I it's I'm I'm glad we we've
lost a limb in general. That's that's cool.
Could. You imagine if he didn't lose
any? I certainly can.
Devin, I would not have put it past the show to to have given
him no permanent missing features, but I'm I'm sure glad

(13:47):
we did at you know, I'll take what I what what I can get.
I wish there was more consequence to this action, but
I will. I will take a missing arm.
That's a start. 850 episodes into this show.
Yeah, Yeah, I know. I hear all of the I hear all of

(14:08):
you talking already about White Beard and Ace being dead now,
like I yeah, sure, that's fine. But they're they're dead, dead
now. We're we're talking about
consequences for the living here.
Yeah. Is anyone here saying they doubt
that Pedro is? Dead.
There is a seriously doubt. Zero chance.
You are all insane. I.
Understand there's no criticismsand like listen, I understand

(14:32):
Pedro's fighting uphill battle given Sabo and well, Pelo.
I feel like it's just such a weird circumstance I don't even
really consider it. Sabo and Pelo are the same
thing. I don't know what you're
talking. These are all these are all the
same instance they're they're in.
They're on Ground Zero of a giant fuck off explosion, all
three of them. I don't know me.
I feel like Pedro. Not Pedro.
Excuse me? I feel like what's his name?

(14:53):
Pelo was was the collateral damage of something bigger than
what Otto was letting on, and hejust won't tell us.
What does that even mean? What does that statement even
mean? I means that I think hell was
not killed for like political reasons, like real world
implication. Reasons cuz cuz they're in like
the like the Middle East is that.

(15:15):
What you're saying I, I, I am simply speculating.
I'm simply speculating. I have no proof of this is what
I believe in my hearts of hearts.
I consider Pate, not Pedro. God damn it.
I consider Pell a very special circumstance that I don't even
consider in most instances. Paper dead bro.
I understand what you're saying.I, I hear you.
That dude is dust. Should be dust.

(15:36):
By all means. Should be dust and I.
OK, OK, I I'm going to ask a very stupid question.
Go on. How many episodes would you have
to go through in One piece without seeing Pedro's body
before you? Just kind of like assume?
Yeah, he did. The show has to end, the show

(15:58):
has to officially end. And even then I feel like we're
still not safe. They're all just going to
release some extra SBS or something at the because
someone's. Showing how he like wound up on
like some random ass like isolated island that's
unchartered and he's like happy there.
Yeah, yeah, I I stand. Like missing both eyes I guess.

(16:20):
Will I actively be thinking about Pedro being dead?
No. But if, if after One Piece ends,
a year or two later, some SBS comes out or somebody asks A
haphazard question about Pedro and he goes, Oh, yeah, actually,
Pedro's really alive, I'm going to go, yeah, yeah, that sure.

(16:41):
I'll probably be angrier than that in reality, because it'll
be it'll be like a year or two after the fact.
And the, the idea that he's still retconning cannon events
after the show was actually over, it would probably piss me
off. But either way, who did it?
Yeah, I I officially will not say that Pedro was dead dead

(17:01):
until a we see a corpse or B theshow ends.
OK, I'll stand in solidarity to that.
Thank you. I knew I could count on you for
something, Devin. Any anything else you want to
recover from last week before wemove on to today's ass whooping?
Honestly, that's all that reallymattered.
Exactly. So my boy Luffy again is.
As play happens. Yeah, he is.

(17:22):
Luffy is getting fucked up. How does this fight make you
guys feel 'cause you know, yeah,that's it.
That's my question. How does it make you feel
watching Luffy just get it? Kind of feels like like he's
fighting a mirror, yeah. In the mirror world.
Yeah, kind of. Curry is his mirror match, and
they're in the mirror world. It's.

(17:43):
Yeah, but like, like even like, like, but like it's like a it's
not a mirror. Exactly what's I'm trying to
think of the term where it's like they're it's almost like
what if Luffy wasn't an idiot, wasn't nice.
Are you saying that Katakuri is alternate universe Luffy?
Yeah, it's not a paramecia. He's a, he's a Logia and he's

(18:05):
just like, I'm going to do everything you do, but better.
I I actually I believe that theypointed out that the mochi fruit
is actually a paramecia and not a logia.
He just uses it like a logia, it's that good.
It's a it's one of those like special case fruits.
I believe that's. Bullshit, we've literally seen
them punch through him. Well, actually he's he's not

(18:28):
technically punching through him.
Katakuri. That's bullshit.
No, no, no, it's bullshit. We explained this weeks ago, no?
No, this is, this is, this is, this is.
I will, I will fight you on thisone because this is not
bullshit. You watch Katakuri actively use
his observation hockey to see where Luffy is going to punch
and then he avoids it because under normal circumstances

(18:52):
Luffy's punches would hurt him because he's using hockey.
So he is avoiding the punches. He's not letting them hit him
and then and then make it makes the holes in him.
You literally see his whole torso get like removed.
That's him and he's just punching torso area.
But it's just pudding. He's not.
No, he's never he's never actually hitting Katakuri's body

(19:14):
in those instances like with thethe the Gatling and stuff like
that bullshit, Katakuri is actively molding his mochi body
around the punches to avoid them.
He's just he could, could he dodge out of the way all of
these times? Yes, but he's busy aura farming
off of Luffy. So instead he's going to use

(19:37):
instead he's going to use this observation hockey and just
stand there and let Luffy be completely nullified.
Luffy is having Luffy. Luffy is getting farmed in two
ways. He's he's being actively used as
an aura farm and also techniquesbecause Katakuri just takes his
technique and makes it better and fucks him up with it.
I, I will say watching him do the Gatling where he's like, I'm

(19:59):
doing the, the. So this is how.
I'm just copying you, Yeah, likethat is.
And then just watching him fucking go Doctor Octopus on
him. He.
Goes. I feel like that's what I'm
watching. I'm watching Spiderman fight
Doctor. Octopus.
Yeah, a little bit. I I love that Katakuri makes it
a point that any time he's goingto just do Luffy but better he

(20:21):
always makes it bigger. And bluer.
Yeah, and he's got blue because her conquers are mint.
Yeah, I'm not sure why they do that.
That feels like an interesting design choice.
I think it's just to differentiate them.
Yeah. When?
When? Look what happens when you get
bigger. You turn blue.
Have you ever Have you ever watched the Venom movie?
Which one? The first one?
Which one? It's been a while, but yeah.

(20:41):
Where they have the mirror matchat the end and you just can't
fucking tell what anything is because it's all just black goo.
I do vaguely remember this they're.
Avoiding that problem right now,that's the exact thing that
they're trying to avoid, and they're doing a decent job of
it. Yeah.
I'm also wondering if it's not like.
It's not just to differentiate, I wonder if it's to like.

(21:03):
Like if they actually mean something more meaningful.
Yeah, like, like saying like hishockey is like, you know, gassed
up or something. I don't know some.
My hockey's better therefore change colors.
Yeah, exactly like I have the feelings of hatred and mixed
with. Mine while yours is just like,
you know, tonic water kind of curries cool, calm and
collected. So he gets blue.

(21:24):
I, I, I know I have thought about this too, because they
call the they they started calling it color of arms at some
point also. And to this point, I think
armament has mainly been armament itself is black, but
then there's highlights and Luffy's has typically been red
and other characters she's gone up against the typically been

(21:46):
red, but now categories is blue.And there I I also thought that
maybe there could be something to this.
I I think there is. Like, I genuinely think there
is. Yeah.
What if it's like, what if it's like it's it's working by color
of fire rules. You know, red fire is fire
everyone sees, but blue fire is hotter.

(22:06):
We're going to eventually come out and somebody's going to have
arm and hockey that's colored white.
It's the best hockey she. I can't comment because of what
I've seen. What?
Does that mean? Don't worry about it, don't ask
questions. Do I know what he means?
No. But if he knows something, that
means there's no good. What Tik Tok's bowling for you
again buddy? Always has been, always will be.
When did this happen? Oh, this?

(22:26):
Happened like months ago. OK.
But it was. I'm pretty sure you don't know
about it too. The only thing I'm going to say
is gears when. That's enough.
No, no, no, that's enough. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So like I could see that like the the it's still me cooking in
my head, but it's cooking with spoilers, so I don't like it,
right? Devin, join me.
Join me. Shut up.

(22:47):
You know what the? Secret is sit in your corner, go
back to sleep. Back in your cock chair and be
shameful. I wish I was getting cooked.
You are right, that's a statement.
Listen, if I'm getting cut, it means there's a woman in my life
and that means she hopefully still loves me.

(23:08):
I mean, that's not how cooking works.
Listen, listen, isn't it isn't. She can cook me and still love
me, OK? I mean.
Those things are not mutually, mutually exclusive.
It's true. I mean, he is right.
What if Cookie's Mike can't callDevin?
Man, I can't wait for this to get clipped out of context
later. Yeah.
Yeah, I think Dylan just got hisnew reel for Instagram and

(23:30):
TikTok. What's that?
What's the time stamp here? I guess it doesn't matter now.
So just. Going to add it down.
It'll be something else. 28 minutes into the recording.
Justin. Justin is a cuck.
For real. For real.
And people are going to be really confused and they see the
picture of whoever's Golden Ham winner is today and then just

(23:51):
hear this line and they're. Sitting in a cock chair, Jeez.
Yeah, to all my cocks out there,I see you.
All my I'm with you. I stand in solidarity.

(24:12):
It's like it's it's that scene from the end of Alabaster where
the fist is in the. Air.
Yeah, in the world. And.
Like but in the foreground like it like it like what they're
facing towards is just a giant cuck chair from a hotel.

(24:32):
I this is do we truly have nothing else to talk about?
I cannot believe that the timeline of events started with
Luffy getting his ass beat by Katakuri and his lead by
Katakuri. Katakuri, Yeah.

(24:56):
He's he's farmed his aura even from us.
We are being cooked. And I used to have aura before
Katakuri showed up, he said for his.
Jeez, well, not looking good forLuffy, huh?
No, no. And with that being said.
Something something fucking stupid out of his ass.
I do. I do.
Want to actually ask you guys what what I mean.

(25:18):
Yeah. What do you think?
What what what does Luffy do? How win?
What's the win con? Punch harder and faster.
What was his? Maybe a fourth gear thrown in
there. I still think if Luffy is going
to win this fight in any capacity and and really right
now with the IT looks bleak in away that it feels as though

(25:40):
we're going to have to run away from this fight somehow as well.
But if Luffy has any Ave. to actually beating Katakuri I
still think it's on the fly learning how to use observation
hockey better. You're going to copy me?
Well, how about I copy you? Copying me.
Yeah, I mean, it feels. Better he's just going to do the

(26:01):
exact same thing he did to Anaruand just like, well if I don't
know I'm punching you, you won'tsee it coming because wasn't
this the exact same like issue? Yeah.
I I think Ennaru's situation. Was doing the same shit.
Yeah, so, so I think the problemat hand is maybe just like poor

(26:22):
consistency as ODA went on with the story.
So like, yeah, you're right. When when Ennaru first gets
introduced and he's introduced with this very prototype version
of of a hockey that that's just called mantra in this context,
Andrew makes it seems like he can just like read people's
minds, like he like you can predict what you're going to do.

(26:43):
But but I don't know for when I remember see, it felt more like
he could read people's minds. And Luffy was like, well, if I
just don't think you can't read my mind.
And that's how we counted him. So.
So this is just the hockey we have at home.
Well, Anaru was, yeah. Mantra was the hockey at home,
Yeah. Exactly.
Always has been, frankly. Stupid, I hate it.
I makes it even Dumber. It makes it, it makes it hockey.

(27:06):
What do you mean? I don't know.
It was just, it was just, it washockey before I knew what he was
going to call it. Kind of Curry already.
Put me in the cocktail. Just let me sit here and be.
OK. Sure.
Also I, I have to go back and double check this, but does does
Andrew, I remember Andrew mentioned that because he has
electricity powers, he was givenlike an extra little tidbit of,

(27:30):
of of finesse with like how I remember, if it was, could he
like literally read people's minds because he could just like
interpret the, the like electrical impulses in the
brain? No.
Recall no. Of.
Reading. Reading minds in the sense that
in the traditional sense where he can sense your thoughts?
No, but I think what you're probably referring to and I'm

(27:50):
not 100%. It's been a while as well.
Reading the electrical impulses that get sent from the brain.
To the limbs would. Probably allow him to recognize
what sort of punch you were going to throw or how you were
going to move and react accordingly, but he's not

(28:11):
literally reading your thoughts.I feel like we need to go to the
wiki and figure this out becausethis is going to drive me nuts.
I end up not even confident thatthe wiki would have that full
information, but sure, someone can look it up in the background
if you want. Come on it, let me see where I
find something. Show me the hockey because.
Like I feel like this is like again, like still like almost

(28:33):
like copy paste, you know, same issues in a fight.
And in some ways it is, yeah. Luffy just have to has to come
up with a more creative solutionthis time around if he's going
to actually beat Kata Curry. Hopefully anyway.
I would. I would just hope that we don't
do drunken fist Luffy again. Okay, okay, so so this line and

(28:54):
the wiki says referring to as double fruit quote, he being
Anaru can even use his powers togreatly enhance his mantra at K
hockey to near omniscient levelsby reading electrical signals in
the air from afar. So I don't think he's
necessarily reading minds. I think for what was explained
contextually back then was that that's how he was able to hear
everyone's voice. Yes, OK, that's OK.

(29:17):
That that that makes sense in mybrain.
Glad we clarified that. Yeah, but mantra is hockey
still. Yes, mantra is.
Still hockey. Yeah, Mantra is basically.
Hockey. So this is the exact same fight
essentially, except for with less bullshit.
Yeah, well, yeah, it's just a different flavour.
Where Anur Anuru was reading theelectrical impulses to tell what
move Luffy was going to make, Katakuri is actively seeing the

(29:40):
observation Hockey the several second future and being able to
react. So it's it's same same but
different but mostly same same but but but for Luffy, it's it's
same same. He still has to figure some way
of of doing this. And I I think I think his only
Ave. for it is observation is better observation.

(30:01):
I'm not saying that it can't be done a different way.
It's just the only way that I can see right now.
I. I just see part of me also just
wants to see like the return of his conquerors, hockey like to
do something. That's what I was waiting for in
these episodes when he was. Same actually.
Like when we were trying to. Get the the people to stop
firing the the flaming arrows. I instead of constantly trying

(30:23):
to punch them I was screaming atmy laptop.
Just use conquerors. But like, like that's what I
mean is like we can you guys remember?
Like has he used it at all since?
I'm fairly certain he used it indress Rosa I feel like.
Yeah, absolutely. I I don't remember why, but I
know that he used it in dress Rosa.

(30:44):
I don't know. He needs, he needs to pull that
out, you know, fucking slam thatgiant black.
Was it during the? Was it during the arena fight?
That was Sabo, I think it. Was Sabo, Yeah.
But also, I'm asking myself, didLuffy also do that at any point?
You know what? Time to Google that.
I, I, I'm pretty sure he did it in dress Rosa if it wasn't in

(31:05):
the Coliseum. There was some, there was
something else I just can't remember right now.
But I, I was, I was totally waiting for him to just use
Conker's hockey, if anything, togive him a small win, you know,
out of, out of anything that's happening to him in these
episodes. Give him the tiny win of, of
stopping the, the goons from setting the his ship on fire.

(31:25):
Now the ice. This, this What you think of
that? This is all.
Now they totally resolved. Well, I look the the does it
ultimately mean anything really?No, but what this all leads to
is them smashing all of the mirrors and just creating this
extra drama of like Oh well, even if Luffy does manage to be

(31:47):
Katakuri, how's he going to get back type of type of deal?
So now I speculated on this withwith Justin last week.
Also, I said if if Brulee's power has no inherent distance
limit, then he'll just meet themat Wano.
He'll just teepee to Amira Wano and that'll be that.
Or or he just like teepees to like the cake island that

(32:09):
they're already like heading towards.
Yeah, or Chocolate Island, but Alwano sounds cooler.
Or any of the islands? Yeah, Alwano sounds cooler, I
agree. However it.
Who the fuck knows it could literally be like for all I know
he could pull like an octopus move and like squeegee through

(32:30):
like the fucking tiny mirror, you know?
I mean like as long as his teethlike something it's true.
Like like how octopuses and squids can fit literally
anywhere as long as it's a hole the size of their beak.
Yeah. Like that bullshit, Yeah, like
it could literally be anything. That would that would be fun.
I don't mind that that. Would be fun.

(32:50):
What will it work? Sometimes that will it work?
Probably not, but we'll see I guess I, I, I do.
I do expect that he'll be able to use the mirror worlds to to
get somewhere irrelevant, but yeah, who knows it it is still
looking like he's going to have a a bad time with Katakuri.
And Katakuri hasn't even tried, no.
Yeah, he he, he's kind of just like, just just yeah.

(33:12):
Aura farming. He's just, you know, you know.
This, this is this is a quotablemoment and I don't remember the
long exact. I'm sure I want to be too far
down, but when there's a moment early on the fight where
Katakuri's like just, you know, dodging and weaving and then he
nothing personal kids, hi Luffy and goes if I wanted to actually
dodge, I would. And and then he just dips away

(33:34):
and I'm like, Oh my God, this guy's a terrorist.
He's a menace, he does. Absolutely.
I I think the other important thing we get here and it's, it's
very offhandedly said and not addressed by any of the
characters, but Katakuri's got amillion, a billion.
Excuse me, Barry Bounty. He has 1,57,000,000 I believe.

(34:00):
I they don't give a specific. That's 500 million.
My my subtitle gave a specific number.
That was 1.5 I my my sub Jimbei just says he's got a billion
berries I. There, there was a goon over.
A billion. In the mirror world that says
his bounty. Oh I I might have missed that,
if that. Happened.
It is 1,57,000,000. The wedding party.

(34:23):
The wedding party, Yeah. Like when they're like first
introducing them, that's when. They like announced a couple of
their you know, that's probably true.
I don't I I don't remember this.But 1 billion berries?
1 billion berries. Just just all of them doing the
fucking Doctor Evil 1. Million berries.

(34:45):
Yeah. OK, well, if that, if that's not
necessarily new information, then excuse me, I don't remember
if that happened when they were first introduced.
To reinforce those guys bro custard.
This dude. This dude, be powerful.
He's strong. Be strong.
And and again, Luffy has not forced him to use anything more

(35:06):
than the bare minimum of his power set at this point.
Congratulations, you owe you. You've earned active
participation. Barely.
Barely. Even that dude.
Barely. You know, this reminds me mochi
man reminds me that I bought a mochi donut from the bakery
yesterday. I'm going to go get.
That OK, so while he's I can talk, I have one thing I want to

(35:28):
I want to bring up completely unrelated, but just for my, you
know, for my myself, we we finally saw got to see a gold
Rodger ship last week. I seen it.
Have we not seen Oros Jackson? Before I don't think we have
because I definitely would have commented.
Why the fuck does he have an eggon?
It well, that's the thing. I'm fairly certain we've seen
the Oros Jackson before, but notwith a giant fuck off egg on it.

(35:50):
Yeah, like. What the fuck is that?
You tell me. We.
We we speculated on it last time.
You tell me what you think is inthat giant egg.
Kaido, all right. Like maybe that's the One Piece.

(36:12):
The One Piece is a living fucking dragon.
That would be kind of insane, right?
You say that, but you don't sound like you're not on board
with him yet, but sounds like you're considering his offer.
Of the One Piece being a dragon,a living dragon.
I mean, it would have to be a very special kind of dragon.
We've seen Dragons before, to beclear.
Yeah, but those are like off brand Dragons.

(36:33):
Those are like the dire wolves of Dragons that were like,
they're, they're dire wolves, but they're not really dire
wolves, you know what I mean? Like the ones that the
scientists have just bred. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Those are like, like, ah, we have wolves with like dire wolf
juice in them. They're you know, the ones we've
seen have been like, these are Dragons with like, you know,
they're actually, you know, they're not they're Drake's, but

(36:53):
they have dragon juice in them, right?
What if dragon? So you just you're, you're
saying full blow and western style dragon dragon.
Because that would explain all the teleportation sound effects.
Like that everybody in the worlddoes.
Yeah, it's just Shenron. The one piece of Shenron.

(37:22):
That's all it is. It's the it's Otis just really
sad about his fellow mangaka passing away.
So he turns the One Piece into Shenron that.
Would that would piss me? Off.
I think it would piss everybody off.
I think literally nobody would be happy about this.

(37:44):
Frieza shows up to the One Pieceuniverse and blows up.
The planet moves on. So stupid that that's the type
of stuff I expect out of an SPS from ODA once the series
actually finishes. That's the.
This is an estranged planet after the middle of the ethos of
the Dragon Ball Z universe. Yeah, I'm sure it shows up one V

(38:08):
ones Luffy. So I just eating my mochi donut
has reminded me or not reminded me.
How does it made me think does Luffy become a cannibal this
fight and that's how he beats him he just eats him.
Hasn't he already cannibalized several people?
Well, he hasn't eaten the. He's eaten them when the pieces,
the food pieces separate from the Devil fruit user a la

(38:31):
Cracker, but. But like, they contained their
souls. Does it?
That feels like a. That feels like a stretch.
I mean he's eating like cake, like smiling that like they.
Had. Sure, yeah, but they look like
cake. I consider the sole part of a
person, thus cannibalism. Has he actually?
Well, yeah, you know, he's eating homies.
He's definitely eating homies. He's definitely partaking

(38:51):
cannibalism. Might be right.
Do homies count as cannibalism? Well, that's what he's saying.
His argument is that if it has asoul, then it's the soul of a
human specifically then it's cannibalism, he's saying.
That's fair, that's valid because.
That's literally part of a person.
I can get behind this. Luffy is a cannibal.
Technically Shoppers too. There's yeah, I'm pretty sure.

(39:13):
Yeah, most of them. Anybody.
Anybody who's consumed Oh my God, then Big Mom is a cannibal.
Well, we we've already established that that was that,
that was, that was obvious. But like on.
Purpose. And now we're talking on purpose
before, because before it was unconsciously she doesn't know
she's a cannibal, but now it's now she's a knowing cannibal.
She's knowingly eating sentient beings that used to have human

(39:36):
that are had soul human souls inthem.
Now it goes both ways. We already knew she was a
cannibal, but she didn't know she was a cannibal.
This is crazy. There are so many cannibals in
this universe. Now Coupe is going to be out
over the moon to hear this all right.
I think we've I think we've exhausted Catacary versus Luffy

(39:57):
enough. Let's move on to to to some of
the other stuff that happened here.
So we. Got 2 hours and 45 minutes to
bake cake we. Long fucking time.
Long fucking time to bake a cake.
Let me. Tell long time to bake a cake
short amount of time in the grand scheme of things.
Well, look, no, in terms of actually baking a cake of that
caliber, yeah, three hours is a short time.

(40:17):
But in terms of the drasticness of the scenario, 50 hours is not
is way too long. So seeing how?
Long we've dragged 5 seconds outand over how many episodes?
I'm wondering if the formula still applies.
So if we know that this cake takes 2 hours, does that mean
it's like going to be like 60 episodes of milking?
Because if they, if they can like, you know, milk like the

(40:38):
same 10 seconds over like 20 episodes, what are they going to
do with two hours? That is definitely a question
for Christian who is really goodat math, not me.
Wait, what? Yeah, I I see you're doing the
math. You're, you know, you're like,
OK, well, he's literally I don't.
Think he's literally asking for the math on it.
I think he just, he wants to know.
Asking for the math. On it, he wants to know how the

(40:59):
show is going to fill that time.Yeah.
Which is also something I'm wondering.
Because either they're going to either they're going to bullshit
it and just, you know, say most of it was taken up and just them
running away and, you know, ignoring actual time, or they're
going to milk that shit and makethat shit like this whole arc

(41:20):
last another 100 episodes of just running away, hearing cakey
wedding cakey and then me putting the revolver in my mouth
going like, God damn it, make her stop.
You know, I, I do know I I don'tknow why I.
Feel like I just cursed myself or hexed myself by bringing it
into, you know, possibility. I, I'm just, yeah, I'm, I'm I

(41:43):
don't know how where this goes unless somehow Strusen wakes up
Streisand wakes up from his comaor something. 3 hours.
Wasn't his like a three day comaor something?
Allegedly alleged, Yeah. But what I'm saying is 3 hours
is so long in the scheme of whatthe Straw hats are going through

(42:04):
right now. I, it's so I, I don't know
what's going to happen. I don't know what we're going to
how we're going to run away for 3-3 more hours so that we can
bake this cake in an intercept Big Mom.
It's it doesn't. This is where the the
theoretical math doesn't add up in my brain.
You know, I'm just. So this is what's causing the

(42:24):
short circuit. Yeah.
I, I just, I, I don't, I don't know.
We're running out of things. We've done a decent job so far
of finding creative ways for theStraw Hats to avoid imminent
danger, which I'm a fan of. You know, we were worried a
couple weeks ago that we were just going to keep Macguffining
our way tomatay boxing our way through out of Whole Cake and.

(42:48):
We did tomatay box our way out of it though.
When you think about it, Pedro was the Tomatay.
Box I I It's a yes, and arguablya stronger one.
Suicide vest do we have to go through in this?
Arguably a way stronger 1. I think his explosion was way
bigger than the Tamathi box. Honestly, it really was way more
destructive. But yes, I to this to this

(43:11):
point, we've done we've done a good job.
I think of having logical ways for them to get out of it.
I'm a I'm a big fan of of Jinbeiturning the turning the sunny
into a giant surfboard wave board and and just surfing the
wave Cowabunga dude and that. Was that was.

(43:33):
Fantastic. This was this was awesome.
I I love Jim Bay for this one especially I but yeah, so I but
but we're we're we can still do it.
It's still possible, but we're running out of ways.
I I feel like to to get ourselves out of these
situations. We're out of we're out of cola
or CUDA burst. If only we hadn't spilled that

(43:54):
other one. Now we've we've surfed this wave
and for now they've escaped. But there it's probably going to
stay in the reason that they'll get found out soon enough.
So we'll need to kill. You know, maybe they'll buy
that'll buy them sometime, but it's not going to buy them three
out close to three hours. So I am I'm I'm I'm cautiously
optimistic that we'll find something to do in that time.

(44:16):
But man, Whole Cake Island as anark has itself taking place in
just a couple of hours at this point, like since the beginning
of the wedding, I'm, I should say, not the whole the whole
island. The whole island's been a couple
of days, but the wedding was wasvery not long ago in the grand
scheme of things. So we have to go another three

(44:37):
hours. I don't know dude, I'm scared.
I hate. I, I'm terrified and I, I just
feel like it's just going to getDumber and Dumber as we go.
However, I did want to bring up one thing.
I almost, I almost had a called it moment.
We almost had it. Do you know what I'm talking
about, Christian? No, remind me, we almost.
Had we almost had the the Big Mom being 0.

(45:00):
Yes, yes. Yes, concerned me greatly.
I was also concerned for a minute.
I. She I was like, I knew it.
She was. And then they say she's walking.
I was like, OK, good. They did.
They're they're keeping that consistency.
Yeah, yeah, I saw that and I went hold the fuck on.

(45:22):
She's clearly, I was only lost for about half a second.
She's clearly walking on something.
You hear that doom, doom, doom of her walking on something, but
they to make it look initially like she's walking on the water
or in the water. It's like, dude, come on, I did
not want to be right on this one.
We did not I we did not want this called in.

(45:46):
What a bittersweet moment that would have been for you.
I. Would have I would have felt
vindicated because Godzilla and G cells and making it more sense
of the fucking Big Mom being bullshit that she already is.
But I also would have been furious because this doesn't
make any goddamn sense. But now instead, he she's

(46:12):
walking on Slug Candy Island. She is.
It's true. Which when you think about it,
she's kind of just walking on a candy treadmill.
Yeah, she's still walking. Yeah, I don't know why we're
doing the thing where she has towalk.
The Pero Sparrow can just control the thing forward.
She doesn't need to actually walk.
But whatever, I guess because. She's crazy, but like, it's like

(46:34):
a treadmill now. Yeah.
Like he's just taking mom for a walk.
Yes, he's taking his mom for a walk.
So which which which begs to make you think like, why don't
they do this all the time? When you know she gets, you
know, crazy, have someone hide in her hat at all times.
You know, make Para Sparrow justsit there and can defy the floor

(46:57):
and make her walk on a treadmillfor like days.
I will until they make the cake.Maybe, yeah, if they, if they,
if they all live long enough through this, then maybe they'll
take this to heart. They'll they'll get something
out of this. I don't.
Know but yeah, you're right, Godzilla, Godzilla Big Mom was
was one step closer both figuratively and literally and I

(47:19):
was scared. I was, I'm still hoping that we
get that scene of the boats likechoking Big Mom and then you
know what I mean from -1 just recreating that.
If Pell was only, if only Pell was still alive, he could have
been the suicide kamikaze. Yeah, yeah, just strapped some

(47:41):
2220mm guns to him and let him RIP.
Yeah, they they'll RIP through anything.
Literally anything. Go listen to the God episode or
Godzilla. The God episode.
Yeah, that Too episode. Try to think what else happened

(48:03):
in this art. Well, we got we got the brief
moment beforehand before Jim Bayturns the the Sunny into a giant
surfboard with lifting everyone's spirits after they
start breaking down from from Pedro crying about Pedro and.
Emotional skill diff. Yeah, Jim Bay does this a lot

(48:24):
where he's just he's becoming the rock of the group, basically
the this emotional rock that people inadvertently end up
leaning on for for resolve and and to find themselves again
their footing emotionally, mentally again.
He did this with Luffy obviouslya while back.
And now he's spreading the love out to the rest of the Straw

(48:46):
Hats. And at first it comes off kind
of cold because he does basically just tell them to suck
it up and stop crying and let the other let the other team cry
when they lose. But then he he, he expands a
little bit more on what he's saying and, and it is a little
bit more heartfelt at that pointand kind of lifts their spirit

(49:07):
because initially my gut reaction was to was on
Brookside. I was like, Jimbe, come on, hold
on now, dude, come on there. There.
There is a little bit of room for for grieving here.
I agree at the end of his speechthat we need to kind of keep our
concentration in check in order to get the hell out of dodge.
But there's like, oh, there's like a little bit of room for
grief. Let's not, let's not completely

(49:28):
dismiss it. And then he explains himself and
it's better. But so I got a bad feeling about
Jim Bay. You think this is a Jim Bay red
flag? I I think it is.
I should say death flag. Yeah, I honestly, I feel like a
lot of these like, because like,when you really think about it,
like all the stuff that's happened since Jim Bay's joined
them, it's almost like he's finally getting his moment to

(49:49):
like, what if he was a Straw HatCrew kind of thing member where,
you know, he gets to do his epiclittle thing.
You know what I mean? He's already done the I'm doing.
I'm the helmsman. I'm steering the boat.
I'm, you know, listening to Frankie's shitty walkie-talkie
instructions for how to do the cola thing.
Like I'm sensing red flag of Shambei's going to die.

(50:11):
No Shah, dude, I'm I'm, I'm, I'mcalling it Ray here.
Surfboard it is already red flag#1 like numero Uno.
I love that. I love that him turning the sun
into a surfboard Is is is the death flag.
He's the first of them anyway, raising.
The red flag? I I, I got, I got feels.

(50:33):
You hear Justin? What do you?
What do you say about this take?Still got that Eating that mochi
donut, huh? I finished.
I'm not going. I'm gonna go for the second one.
All I'm here to say is. Jimbo, Jimboy, Jimbo, Jim,
Jimmy, my boy Jimbo. My man Jimbo over here is the
goat. My man single handedly steering

(50:53):
a sail, steering the ship, telling everybody to stop being
a bunch of weenie Hut juniors inhis trust the process.
And then he just. He's not.
Acknowledging anything that I talked about how how alarming
that is. What's what's alarming about it?
Christian Christian the The flagjust got 10 feet higher.
Why can't we get much higher? He's not acknowledging what we
were talking about. He's only talking about Jim Bey

(51:16):
being awesome. And I mean, yeah, he was.
He's. Trying not to spoil because he
knows it's going to. Happen.
Well, I don't know about all that.
I don't feel like that's true, but so.
Justin, what's your take on my my theory?
What's your theory again? He thinks crazy, he thinks that
Jim Bay is going to die and thatall of this motivational stuff

(51:37):
and the ways that Jim Bay has been interacting with the crew
is all death flags for for Jim Bay by the end of the hour.
Listen, we already got our one death per per arc quota met, all
right? No more death, no more dying.
They're trying to. Supersede it.
Shut up. I will not have you put this
negative energy out there on my boy Jimbo.
Jimbo is going back to his family in Fishman Island.
All right? I'll have none of this heresy.

(51:59):
I think I'm right. I don't think you're right,
right to to be, to be clear. Adrian died.
If you have a leg to stand on, I.
Think about it would be like theone thing we would least expect.
It would. You're right.
And I don't think I'll just got that dog in him.
I'm gonna be frank. He definitely don't got that dog
in him. No, I'm I'm sticking to my guns.
I think this is Jimbe is dying. This feels.
You know what we haven't done ina while?

(52:20):
Place a bet on something. Oh no, I'll put I.
I'm I'm a bet. I don't I, I.
Think this is the first red flaghonestly.
What, so you think, to be clear,that by the end of this this
arc, Jim Bay will be dead? Yes.
I feel like Jim Bay is going to nobly sacrifice himself to
distinguish like, like, sorry I couldn't be part of the crew.

(52:40):
Like I said, I wanted to, but this is this is the only way.
I I don't, I disagree with that strongly.
I do not believe that Jim Bay will be dead by the end of this
arc. And I'm I have, I'm willing and
my. Gut feeling, my gut is in this.
I know my gut leads me wrong every time, but I got to stick
with it for the bit for the bit,damn it all.

(53:01):
Right, well, I, what should we, what should we put down on this?
It's been a while since we sincewe placed some kind of bet on
this show. Oh shit, maybe, maybe we, maybe
we think about it and, and come back next week with with with
the the stakes here. How about that?
I I don't know what I'd want. Well, that's why you got a week

(53:24):
to think about it, because. I'm trying to think of like what
you haven't like what I would want to make you do.
Sleep on it. What's the punishment that that?
What do I lose if I'm wrong? Well, that's that's what I'm
saying is we have to figure out that it doesn't have to
necessarily be like make the other person do something and
just, you know, there can be some some other sort form of

(53:47):
punishment to it. OK.
Sleep on it, we'll come back. Next week we're we're, we'll
come back to this. We'll come back next week.
Just know that the bed is placedand and and the loser will have
to. Something will happen.
Steven's lawyer's advocating forshaving A Jolly Roger.
That, that, that's not that deep.

(54:07):
I I shaved my head. Also, if a Barber could actually
forge a Jolly Roger in your fade, I'd be impressed by that.
I'm about to ask that for my ownbenefit just to see if they can
do it. I gotta wait a couple months for
my hair to grow out again. But next next cut I'll be like,
hey listen, how good are you with the with Clippers?
Can you can you can you can you can you put this in the back of

(54:29):
my head? Yeah, I don't.
I don't go to barbers anymore. I just shaved my head at home.
We have. Barbers you.
Tell so many people you're not bald.
Well, because I'm not. You don't need a Barber.
Sounds like you're bald to me. No, no, no.
It's buzzed, it's not bald, not I'm not going clean.
If you say so. There's a difference.
There's only one bald person in the server and he knows who he

(54:50):
is. He's a producer.
He's going real, real subtle with that one, huh?
Bald. Bald, bald, bald.
Now what? I think, I think we're just
about done everything that we need to do here, right?

(55:12):
Yeah, unrelated. Before we move on, I wish to as
united front, well, a front, maybe not united as a front.
I was going to say, like, what are we uniting under?
I think for next week's episode we should all find a bakery in
our local areas that make she phone cake and have some she
phone cake. I've never had it.

(55:33):
I'm very curious now. Isn't it just cake?
I mean, yeah, but, but it it's got a different name.
It's not just cake, you know? It's Shifon cake.
What makes a shifon? I don't know.
We're going to find out. I want to Google it.
What is shifon cake? What is shifon fabric?
It's Angel food cake, similar toAngel food cake.

(55:56):
Interesting. Sir, anywhere selling it near
me? You know, Christian, remember
when I remember last year and I said I'll take you on a date and
then I never did because I. Forgot to vividly.
Yeah. We're coming up on like 8 months
now or something. Six months since you told me.
No, Yeah, I was right the first time like 8 months since you.

(56:16):
Since you. Told me that cake.
I love cake. Cake's great.
Is it my favorite mode of sweet treat?
No. But if I'm being taken on a
date, I'm certainly not going tosay no to some chiffon cake all.
Right, I see mostly. Oranges.
I think Paris baguette got chiffon cake and they just
opened up one downtown Paris baguette.
Date it is. This literally just looks like
Angel food cake. Yeah, but it's similar but not

(56:38):
same. No, it looks identical based on
the Google. It's just Angel food cake but
with extra stuff on it. I.
Don't know. Anyway, are you going?
Are you out here trying to turn down cake?
Death and me boy, Me Bob. Little did you know, I actually
hate cake. Like, OK, I like OK.
I don't love cake either, particularly when it comes to
like all the like. Cake is cool when it's just the

(56:59):
bread, but then you throw too much extra, like whipped cream
topping and frosting. Frosting is hit or miss for me.
Frosting gets real old real fast.
Like my lawyer says, we have ourreasons.
I just can't stand cake, any form of it.
I'm I'm done with it spiritually.
What happened between you and the cake, Devin?
When you have so many family members and you go to that many

(57:22):
birthday parties and every single one has a cake, you just,
you just stop. 11 by two by three?
Is that the dimensions of the cake?
That's the birthday parties. So why are you?
Asking me to multiply by three different numbers.
It's my brain. So that's 2.
So that's 2 birthdays plus theirkids average.
On average. Most of my aunts and uncles have
three kids. That is a lot of birthdays.

(57:44):
I don't like Matthews. Move on, move on before the
numbers hurt my brain. So.
So next week's episodes are 854 to Day 56 quote time.
Quotes. I'll lead off.
I've got 2 quotes here. The The 1st is from our boy Jim
Bay, who we've been doing who istotally not going to die and

(58:08):
we're singing the praises of this is obviously he has a long
speech to the rest of the Straw Hats in terms of raising their
morale. But I'm just going to give you
the last part of it that I, thatI think kind of sums up the the
entirety of it the best rather than just saying part different

(58:28):
parts. He goes, it's not over yet.
We're still in total land. Soon we will be chased by the
pirate queen of the country, BigMom, and the enemy can attack us
at any time from any direction. And until you get out of the
territory where Big Mom reigns, you can't to lose your
concentration. Isn't Pedro inside of you saying

(58:50):
that? Yeah, isn't Pedro inside of you
right now? That version of Pedro is inside
Devin right now, saying that JimBay is going to die to beckoning
him through to the light. He's got the fucking.
He looks like Brooke but like Furry.
Yeah, and still somehow. Missing still.

(59:11):
Somehow missing an eye that works.
But, well, it it what what they did was they just cracked the
skull right over that eye. Yeah, yeah.
So it still looks like, you know, an eye, but it's it's
cracked. The other quote I have is from
Katakuri, one of the obviously has a lot of aura farming lines
in this in this episode, but I think one of the coldest that he

(59:33):
says is there will be no victoryin your future.
Because you can. Literally see the future so good
to go along with the with with his teleport behind you.
No, nothing personal kid sort ofthing.
There's a there's a lot. Katakuri has a lot of good lines

(59:55):
in this in in that in these episodes.
That's just, that's just my favorite one.
Dude, dude is just truly or farming my man.
My man is just he he he's a living body of that tweet of a
you're you're or too too big, your ass, too fat, your money
too too stacked. They'll kill you, man.
Anyone familiar with this me andjust me and my in my in my on

(01:00:17):
Twitter. So.
Much. I think it's just you, buddy.
See. When Yeah, I think it's just
you. Because when you said that, my
first thought is your, your, your skills.
Whack your bazookas, whack your second gear.
Whack me. I'm tight.
I'm tight, fuck. Well, you know, this is the
opposite side of the coin. I'm.
Mochi as fuck I'm. Mochi as fuck.

(01:00:44):
Justin Justin 20 minutes ago when he's eating his doughnut.
So I guess I'm just going to. I didn't really have any quotes,
so I'm just going to quote someone from the server.
They brought something up. So there's during the scenes
where they're fighting, like Luby's just throwing like a

(01:01:04):
bunch of, you know, punches, andthen he just gets punched in the
mouth. Like really like just really
like, Wham. He just gets knocked down by a
category and it was Piro. I think it I think it was who
said it. He's like, it's like that
YouTube clip where the guys doing like a bunch of like
karate like moves like in like backflips and shit and the other

(01:01:25):
guy just fucking decks. At me.
It's the corral, Yeah, that's that moment.
Yeah. So that's my quote.
It's just here I'm saying that, right?
My other quote says what I mentioned earlier because it was
just so good. During their fight, Luffy goes
like down a gum gum, I think he he gets punched, he gets knocked
out, but he reappears with the Grizzly Magnum lined up and the

(01:01:49):
the goons in the corner go he's got 2 giant fists.
And then Katakuri just does it back but better and bigger.
And then the goons go Katakuri'sgot even 2 bigger fists.
All right, that just tickled me.Oh no, Katakuri with the chair.
See, now I get. Now it's falling in line with

(01:02:10):
all their references that keep popping into my head.
I was thinking of the SpongeBob movie with with Dennis and then
the the the the diver guy comes up.
That's a big boot. That's a big boot.
No, actually. That's what that's what ran
through my head. But all right, that's, that's,

(01:02:31):
that's quotes, right? Yep, Yep, Yep, Yep.
All right, all right, all right.Now we've got the Golden Ham for
this week. This one has some contenders I
think. I think so as.
Well, I'm voting for Jim Bayes. Red flag, not Jim Bay.
It's the red shut off Okay, I'm.Jim Bay, someone flip the coin

(01:02:56):
for me. I'm just going to put it out
there that the entire time my vote was for Katakuri and Jimbei
gave him a run for his money with the last episode and his
whole thing. But and, and I, I love my boy
Jimbei, but I'm going to stick to my guns here and officially
put my vote on Katakuri for the Golden Ham.

(01:03:17):
No arguments for me. No arguments for me.
All right. A wave farm it was, too.
Strong too strong was way too strong.
Katakuri cuck chair. I feel like I feel like since
this phrase became part of the cultural zeitgeist, I have never
said aura farming as much as many times out loud as I have

(01:03:42):
this one night in this last drawer.
And and which is crazy because the the phrase has so often been
attributed to in anime to to solo levelling these days, which
I am just I am obviously such a fan of aura loving.
Yeah, aura levelling. Excuse me and you know, even
with that I've said or I've saidI almost said it or a farming

(01:04:06):
more times tonight than that hadlittle weeks and weeks of this
phrase existing. But anyway, that being said,
time for some fan mail. Justin, do we have anything this
week? Yes, yes.
This letter comes to us from listener Artless, who writes
What are you wearing? God damn it, I.

(01:04:28):
Am wearing gym shorts and a Graytank top.
I've got a black T-shirt on and red and blue checker pattern
sleek pants. I have the white tank top and
grey boxers hot. Like solid grey?
Are they like like different shades?
That says light grey, but other thing I was mentioned besides

(01:04:51):
that was we got a comment I think today on one of our most
one of on one of our most recentepisodes.
Jesus. I'm only stroke from listener
fire king who writes the biggestproblem with Whole Cake is we
need to be over there, but we aren't there yet.
It'll, it'll be cool when we getthere, but we need to get there
by walking, which I, I I assume was a comment to one of you 2

(01:05:15):
just complaining about somethingat Whole Cake.
Could you read that again? Quote The biggest problem with
Whole Cake Island is we need to be over there, but we aren't
there yet. It'll be cool when we get there,
but we need to get there by walking.
End Quote. I feel like, yeah, that tracks.
I feel like this is a, this is aquote from something else that
that that they're just borrowingfor this.

(01:05:35):
But I can't place what it is because that sounds familiar to
me. I don't.
I just assume there is is a, youknow, makes.
Sense to me, I mean. The word there is just standing
for whatever is cool on the horizon.
I agree, I just. I just feel like I've heard this
phrase phrasing before and I'm like, this is this is this.
It applies here for sure, because whatever is over there

(01:05:57):
is sure, it's cool, but it well,it's like it was initially it
was cool, but now it's dangerous.
And there's a woman here who just won't stop yelling wedding
cake at me and I don't. I feel very uncomfortable right
now. Mom, can you pick me up?
There's an old. Lady yelling wedding.
Cake over. And over again.
Mom left me in the line to go get something else in the store

(01:06:20):
and the woman behind me just won't stop talking about this
wedding cake. She's just, she's just, she's
planning on eating at some pointand it's really starting to
freak me out. So with that being said, thank
you both for for the lovely emails.
And yeah, thanks for the lovely emails.
With that being said, we've got 2 producers this month.
It's Taco and it's me Rabbit. Thank you for supporting us.

(01:06:45):
It is it is a new one and we we love them dearly.
Thank you for for filling in to the producer tier.
It's great. We love watching movies and I'm
excited to, well, I'm excited about one of the movies that
we've been given. The other, not so much.

(01:07:05):
You know who you are. It's Taco.
Isn't it? It's Taco, Yeah.
Yeah, of course. But that's OK, I'm keeping my
I'm keeping my options open. I'm keeping my, my, my brain
open to to it as much. I've been surprised before and
it can happen again. So we will.
We'll just have to see when whenwe get that recording done.

(01:07:26):
But that being said now we are moving on to the ever
illustrious garb Gab for tonight.
Do I have any volunteers for? I did it for like.
Three weeks. I'm good.
I'm tired of getting my hands covered in sticky shit.
It's that that did happen, but Ialso had Justin do it last time

(01:07:48):
because he was the only other person here.
So I guess well. He could do it again from, you
know, sleeping for sleeping. He knows what he did, Yeah.
Definitely the first. All right, well, you know what?
I, I'm just going to reach into the bag myself.
Then I, I, I did stock this and I was because because of

(01:08:08):
everything that's going on, Luffy was catching so many LS
that I figured to there were there were too many being thrown
around this this episode that I I didn't even fill it with
anything that bad. You know, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just whatever you want it to be.
Is that just a bag of LS? No, it's a bag of WS
specifically, specifically itemsthat start with W.

(01:08:30):
So you'll see, we've got this little water bottle here.
We've got an entire watermelon. I've got a set of watercolor
paints. You know, I'm realizing that all
three of these things also startwith water, weirdly enough, you
know that. That being said, I I'm going to
go. Is that just your gym bag?

(01:08:50):
No, I bring my my colored pencils to the gym, not my
watercolors. That's just me.
Oh, what the, the the watercolor?
Yeah, that's that's me. Oh, that's you just brought your
lunch box in. Oh, well, you know, I that
doesn't start with W, though. It's my lunch box.

(01:09:10):
Yeah, that's my it's my widow lunch box now.
It works. Yeah.
What's what what's wrong with that?
You know problem anyway rude. I want to reach into my my bag

(01:09:31):
and pull out my gym whale that Ithat I that I bring everywhere.
It's my good luck whale. And when it's not Laboon.
Laboon. And in his in his mouth, he's
got a little folded piece of paper that I'm going to take out
now and unfold it. And it says haiku, haiku.

(01:09:52):
Wally the Whale wants us to do ahaiku.
Anybody want to start? I got this mostly because it's
bad. All right.
He can bake a cake with a simpleset with a simple scent, and yet
he gives me headaches. All right, fair play.
I don't know. That wasn't like terrible.
I guess I'll go first. Devin silent speaks volumes.
He was dying over there. I guess so he needs a second to

(01:10:12):
recover. So trying to breathe.
Yeah, it's. His lawyer.
Right, just in case. Alright, my haiku goes.
With waves of candy comes bitterness of defeat.
Luffy needs some milk. That boy needs some milk.

(01:10:34):
Yeah, but like, for real? He do, yeah.
He really do need milk. I have two, one that I've wrote
like half assed real quick just black and then the other one I
put in thought too. This arc is my bang with nothing
to wreck my brain. Jihad is best bang.
Fucking hell dude, OK. Then I have with his first he

(01:10:57):
holds the plot crumbles to the sea.
Jinbei the death flag. You know, you made it.
You made that that Jinbei death flag thing feel like a very on
the spot thought, but you're telling me you thought you you,
you just sort. Of just it.
I did. I did rewrite it.
You wrote, you rewrite it on thespot.
Damn. Yeah.

(01:11:18):
That's that's, that's that's thesign of a true poet right there
it. It was something else before,
because I was just like, yeah, Jim Bay did something cool.
And then, you know, as we went and did the episode, I was like,
wait a minute. All right, well, snaps all
around for the haikus. Snap, snap, snap, snap.
All right, well, thank you for joining me, fellas.
Let's do it again sometime, justat the same time next Sunday so

(01:11:41):
that Devin can't record. What the fuck is wrong with you?
We got to get out of my secret private chamber.
Let it eavesdrop much. Jeez.
All right, so we're still your. Chamber's a chamber.
It's not much of A secret. Hey, that's budget cuts.
All right. So we're going to record.
On our date. Got it.
Yeah, OK, got it. I'll bring the I'll bring the
