Manga: Chapter 661 (SPOILERS!)

SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS!

Be cool like Brook! Read One Piece on SJAlpha!

We start this chapter by returning to Luffy's group as their banana boat gets destroyed by a gang of centaurs whose leader happens to be Brownbeard! Not only that, but he is now an alligator centaur, and I can't say I've ever seen one of those before. Zoro and Usopp emerge from the water with Luffy and Robin on their backs. As the centaurs prepare to fire again, Zoro is dragged underneath the water by sharks. Just as Usopp is about to be shot, the centaur's weapons suddenly explode in their faces.

Brook just keeps getting cooler each time he shows up. The centaurs attack Brook, but he cuts them down easily. Afterwards Luffy and the others manage to get back on the ground, but are now freezing. Brownbeard manages to recognize Luffy upon closer inspection and is naturally terrified because of  his 400,000,000 berry bounty.

This is snow laughing matter

Meanwhile outside of the Research Institute, Law realizes that he cannot let the Straw Hats get away and uses his Op-op powers to switch their hearts. As the Straw Hats continue to run, we see that what Law has actually done is switched the minds of the Straw Hats so Nami acts like Sanji, Sanji acts like Chopper, Franky acts like Nami, and Chopper acts like Franky. This is going to be hilarious.

Law resumes his attack against the marines using his powers to steal all of their weapons and their Transponder Snails because he doesn't want them to report what they've seen to Marine Headquarters or the World Government. Smoker resumes his attack on Law and they fight it out for a bit. Smoker warns everyone that Law completely rules an area within his circle but Tashigi charges ahead to attack Law despite Smoker saying that her Haki isn't powerful enough. This is where the chapter ends.

This was definitely the best part of the chapter

This was another solid chapter with its usual great mix of light hearted comedy and serious action. The artwork continues to be great as always and now we have both the Straw Hats and the Marines in another tight spot. In addition I need to ask; what's going to happen between Brownbeard and Luffy? How is the mind switchgoing to play out? What will happen between Tashigi and Law? Will the Straw Hats reunite as well as becoming back to normal?

Once again we should get some answers next time. Now if you'll excuse me, Peggle Nights is calling me so have a good week and see you all in my next review!

Did anybody else seriously not see this coming?
