@xioa I agree that the kraken is the most likely candidate but IMO he is more of a Vivi a character who wont join do to duties I think that explains the shark and it explain why the kraken was at higher depths then it had been known to be. It was protecting the path to Fishman Island. Also I feel that drawing something like that can become tedious and explaining how they are going to take care of it will be annoying

yeah i 100% agree with that i did the last time we talked about that idea. also, i do really think the krakken is the new vivi. it makes perfect sense essentially if luffy does as some think he will and declare fish man island under his protection leaving the keakken there as muscle and giveing it the straw hat mark would definitely be the most likely way luffy would help jimbi to protect fish man island

Still the Kraken is a powerful ally no matter what route Oda takes.

**Blackriot69** · 12-03-2010, 04:11 AM

Agreed with both above me...

**cross777** · 12-03-2010, 05:20 AM

agreed with the agreed LOL
but yeah either way but i see the keaken coming in to play later like when luffy gets in to a war and calls for allies

Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! The Kraken is not the new Vivi! Boa Hancock was the New Vivi and Luffy just departed from her. We won't have another Vivi character for awhile. A Vivi character is former enemy who turns out to be royalty who travels with Luffy to multiple destinations and then stays behind do to their own destiny that deals with the protection of their country. Currently the Kraken is in the same classification as Laboon, Mahmoo, and Luffy: All being pets to a pirate crew. You guys are just wrong when you say "This character is the new former character introduced some time ago." Like Caribou being the new Bellamy. Bellamy is the one who caused Merry to die, he is the one who created that impossible fix. Saying that Caribou is the new Bellamy is like saying the Thousand Sunny will be killed.

The Kraken is a Pet and, like the ship, will be a nakama but not count for the overall score of crew members.

Are you sure because he was put as a hooded figure yet his crew members weren't http://mangastream.com/read/one_piece/30527037/14
I would say that is a hooded figure anything else about the video with the cast is arguable

I mostly agree altough: How does Mohmoo count as a pet, he gets defeated and then the next time he always ends up beat up and i didn't know that Bellamy wreaked the ship (B*stard!) i was just saying that him trying to prove something may be to show his worth to somebody like a higher up kind of like how Bellamy had a higher up, i'm not saying that he is apart of Doflamingo...although that would explain why his tongue is so friggin long, seriously it is like all of his underlings have long tongues

Oh snaps what a thought out explanation, although i didn't equate Sureme to Vivi i was saying bellamy = caribou which doesn't seem true at the time

Though i don't think bellamy killed merry, it was more their adventures and fall from sky island

But i do wish something like this happens to caribou http://www.mangareader.net/103-2339-...apter-232.html He needs to learn his place

**Flare Blitz** · 12-03-2010, 04:28 PM

@ gypseslice
do they? pls show me 2 examples to confirm this statement about the long tongues

**Gypseslice** · 12-03-2010, 04:50 PM

^^ Come on, Bellamy's flag is a tongue sticking out of a mouth, Disco had his tongue outside of his mouth while confronting Camie and Doflamingo himself looks like a freaking panting dog BUT that was not the point i was trying to make xP
