🌟 Mythical Zoan Showcase 🌟
It’s Catarina Devon’s birthday, so here’s a Mythical Zoan Showcase just for her! 🎂
Today, we have the Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Kyuubi no Kitsune. It has the power to transform the user into a nine-tailed fox from Chinese mythology that made its way into Japanese, Indian, and Korean cultures.
In East Asian folklore, foxes are depicted as spirits that possess magic powers. These foxes are often depicted as mischievous, usually tricking other people, with the ability to disguise themselves as women. One ability Catarina by eating this Devil Fruit is being able to disguise herself as anyone she likes so she can impersonate them.
Did you also know that Catarina’s name was originally going to be Kitsune? What a fitting Devil Fruit!

chapter 1107 spoilers
Howabout that cover? Howaboutthat cover? How ABOUT that cover?
Bepo, with a lovely warming pot of tea (or a kettle at least), and a club? (to protect the captain?), finds him skiving off with a snow leopard, a funnel, and maybe an empty bottle of Vodka. Chapter title is: "I've been looking for you", and it refers to the giants, I think, looking for the Straw Hats, and Usopp (especially), looking (out) for the giants, and Catarina Devon doing what, exactly? But Caribou, snivelling little sop of a man that he is, looking out for Blackbeard (his current lord and saviour). But, I'm with Bepo, looking out for Law!
The Blackbeards' land on Egghead and St. Jay Garcia Saturn says he knows all about Blackbeard's background, and Catarina knows it too, and I think it's maybe something separate from the "D" initial, cos', after all, it is in Teach's public name. But we see Van Augur--(like, why is the anime captioning him as Van Ogre when Augur is written clearly on the screen? But anyway). The last time we saw him
was
here in chapter 1081 when Bepo went Sulong and escaped with Law. Most of us thought that Blackbeard's crew had been split in half because
it was assumed that events were happening concurrently, but
Van Augur and Catarina Devon are here (on Egghead), and perhaps Van Augur could have warped himself there, but here he says
he hasn't mastered the warp warp fruit enough to get him and Catarina off the island, so it's unlikely that he could have warped himself all the way from Winner Island. SO, did they pursue Law and Bepo, and the two are nearby, or with the giants, or, or, or? Or is there some other explanation (about Van Augur--I know that Law's whereabouts is still relegated to cover pages)? I'm not a close reader, so I'm happy to have anything pointed out.
But, looks like Catarina will be able to clone
Saturn, and looks as if Saturn knows it. Of course, this guy below (Caribou) would be relevant. Can't wait to see his role!
I'm out of order, of course! I don't think that Law got recaptured, but I still think there might be a giant connection. And speaking of the giants
Usopp's reaction was just
heartfelt, was, ahhh, my heart, and Nami and Chopper were really cute too. And yeah, it's been some time, so the quick recap was necessary. AND, lots of small things I just loved either for humour or poignancy, like:
Brook abandoning everything for the sake of a cup of tea (even though he says he wasn't stopping for a cup of tea)---and Lilith sending forth messages (to raise the barrier, I'm guessing) because Brook is all too calm that the Sunny is heading towards the barrier, and bound to be fried by it. Lilith is not at all equipped for dealing with Straw Hat madness. And no-one can seriously out-machismo
Zoro. He's just too silly and strong. And!!!
the Pacifistas turn on the army, the army needing to suppress a workers' revolt. And that's Kuma in the bottom picture, isn't it? It looks like Kuzan, but PX is written on the cap, I think, in the picture. Again, let me know, please!
Bonney just
being in awe that
she gets to see Nika (and Nika teaches her how to throw a rubber punch, extra future bad news for Saturn, I hope). And
Kuma and Vegapunk (what's the far right image?) take in Nika too. Love Franky's way with words here:
telling Bonney she needs make use of her legs, and Vegapunk decides he's gonna stay (or die), and Borsalino's gonna make sure of it. But!
the power of love is all pervasive! (at least when Sanji's wearing the boots). Although his love was used for protecting Bonney rather than Vegapunk, and probably has more to do with Germa modifications than love, but it is Sanji's motivator, and attacks Kizaru's knowledge of "how things work"!
Kizaru/Borsalino's face in the first panel really shows how much power he's losing. Sentomaru took a path Kizaru could have taken, but didn't. He's following Bellamy's path, so it'll be interesting to see where he ends up. Because he's too smart to be a blind lackey. Being an aware lackey is some powerful conditioning/mental gymnastics.
And I think that's about it. Hoping Kid gets a cover page soon too!

The Blackbeard Pirates, if they ever learn what Bonney's true age is... (Spoilers for Chapter 1098)
Blackbeard, who looks like he's having a crisis: ...
Burgess: ...
Shiryu: ...
Augur: ...
Pizarro: ...
Laffitte: ...
Devon: ...
Wolf: ...
Vasco: ...
Doc Q: ...
Kuzan: ...You propositioned a 10-year-old.
Blackbeard: I didn't KNOW she was 10 at the time! She has an age altering fruit! She was an adult woman when I caught her! If I had known, I NEVER would have said anything! I'm a villain, not a monster!
Laffitte: Nobody is blaming you, Commodore. We all thought she was an adult.
Augur: I suppose it's a fortunate turn of fate that you left her untouched with the Navy back then rather than just taking her.
Devon: Why are you even freaked out over this? You didn't even screw her, and you're a pirate, for god's sake. I'm surprised it even bothers you.
Blackbeard: A line has to be drawn somewhere for everyone, Devon. For me, it's pedophilia.
Kuzan: (I guess I should be relieved Blackbeard is that much decent...)
Vasco: Eh, if Bonney was in her adult form, I'd still do her.
Rest of the crew: ...
Shiryu: *slowly draws sword*
