More information, thanks to KaidoBoby. Posted by @redon on APF

the seven people that have an impact on Oda's design:
Ashley Wood, Mike Mignola, Jusaburo Tsujimura, Tim Burton, mechas of the Time Bokan series, Simon Bisley, Michael Lau

The three on the right are Shiki, Sengoku, and Sakazuki
The one with the hat and cp9 next to it is Kuzan

--- Double Post Merged, Apr 23, 2020, Original Post Date: Apr 23, 2020 ---

So the sketches are ideas Oda had for characters around the Ohara/Water 7 arc. Sakazuki is still based on the same actor, Bunta Sugawara but from an earlier role. Also to me the Shiki character actually looks more like Hyogoro from Wano.

Mr 3's Doru Doru no Mi and just below is Wapol's Baku Baku no Mi.

Island Eater Info

Length: About 715 M
Weight: About 120 tons

Kuzan called *Monster Recruit* when he join Marine.

Any info regarding who chased Robin there?

Any info regarding who chased Robin there?

The Marines, or do you mean something else?

When she arrived on the island she heard the marines were looking for her and that they'd spotted her but they were actually after the imposter Robin.

Drawn by Horikoshi. Credits to @redon

Shirahoshi looks really amazing here. Horikoshi's art style works well with OP characters. If you look carefully you can even see Luffy on there.

No. I meant something else. When she arrived on the island there were some men in black chasing her, but they did end up capturing the imposter Robin.

Some information from the magazine:

-When Aokiji joined the navy he was called the recruited monster and possessed a great fighting force that he had not learned from anyone, but he gained more strength when Monkey D Garp trained him.

-Aokiji was looking at Monkey D. Garp's past since Aokiji was a new recruit.-Akainu was also called "the recruited monster".

-Justice of Aokiji was Burning Justice, but later changed to Lazy Justice after what happened in Ohara.

-After the Rocks Pirates disintegrated, Whitebeard gathered a crew and became stronger (Whitebeard at the time of the Battle of God Valley is 36 years old, but its most cherished strength was at the age of 38)

-What makes Roger's pirate crew strong and united despite their small number is their confidence in the leader.

- The reason Kyros became wild at age 15 was that two people killed his best friend.

- Nico Robin’s father was killed by the world government and he was a great historian among those who read the poneglyphs.

- Despite its power, Oden was never able to sail due to his poor knowledge of navigation.

- Garp clashed with Chinjao many times but he finally won against him in the flashback that we have seen .

- The fight between Garp and Chinjao was ended by using only CoA .

- Chinjao is one of the greatest pirates in West Blue .

Early concepts of the SH crew:

The Secret Story Behind the Creation of the Straw Hats

Concept notes by Oda open with 20 concepts about the Straw Hat crew and story creation secrets.

Drawn two years before serialization began.
Instead of Robin, there was a guy who likes plants.

From “Saigou” to “Jinbe": The History of the First Son of the Sea’s Conception

Saigou: that was the name of Jinbe as originally conceived. As you can imagine from the name, the image was a big body touching the sky with a monk’s shaved head. Based on this, after so many character concept drawings, and with the idea of a whale shark fish-man in mind, the final design solidified.

(NOTE: They are referring to Saigō Takamori: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saigō_Takamori)

“So, you’re the guy who took down Arlong?”
“You’re pretty puny.”

Southern Country
Jinbe
Looking for justice
Mighty power
Close with Zoro
To the promised land

After the initial concept, the First Son of the Sea finally joined the crew!!
Look forward to more action from him going forward!!

Saigou
“It’s you, Luffy.”
*grin*
“Thank you. I heard you stopped Arlong.”

First Son of the Sea Jinbe Changed Six Times!!

In the early story, the name of First Son of the Sea Jinbe was brought up. But until he showed up in Impel Down, the design changed a lot. In the first draft, he looked like an obvious bad guy sea monk (NOTE: Umibozu, like they called Wadatsumi). After that, he got the top knot and slowly changed to how he looks now. Likewise, his personality also changed. In the early stages, he was a dynamic boss character.

Thanks to Shift@AP for the translation and notes.

It looks lit, love how Whitbeard's mustache is kind of more believable in this art style.

Are there any news on if any team is translating it or should I just be patient until someone decides to pick it up?

I'm keeping a look out, but I've not seen anything yet. There's likely just going to be a fan translation but I wouldn't expect anything official from Viz until a physical copy is released.

There's a French release, which at least shows all the pages if you can understand the language. HERE.

There's also in portuguese too, very good quality of the scans.

Boichi's art is amazing! So amazing that makes me wonder if every element of the drawings is validaded by Oda himself.

Can we say the Novel is canon? I mean, is there any confirmation?

I don't think there's an official confirmation, but it was published by Shueisha and fully supervised by Oda, so most people consider it canon.

Yeah, I believe it's just a little more detailed, but still holds tons of canon elements.

Spoiler: Translation

Perona: "Yo, you went shopping last week right? Why didn't you get me any chocolate?"

Zoro: "There weren't any available, so deal with it. And I went all over town from shop to shop for you, so you should be thanking me. Why don't you just buy some yourself?"

Perona: "It's not that easy! It takes frickin' ages just to go to the smallest town around here!"

Zoro and Perona repeatedly argued as they walked along....

Some dialogue In Perona Novel and translation by Den_Den_Mushi from WG:

Spoiler: 1

. This is a little fight scene between Mihawk and Zoro where Perona tries to sneak past him and take his wine.

Mihawk let out a low laugh and stood up.
"You're not overestimating yourself and trying to take my head are you?"
"I'm not so much of a cocky idiot to think I can beat you."
"So what is your goal?"
Zoro crouched slightly.
"This is training!"

Zoro leapt forward, slashing at Mihawk. Mihawk grabbed a nearby sword and without even unsheathing it, lightly stopped the incoming blade with the sword guard. As the sparks from their clash disappeared, Zoro pulled out his other katana. As he blocked the barrage of slashes with the sword guard, Mihawk finally unsheathed the sword.
"Don't break the furniture."
"I can't guarantee that!"
Zoro let out a short shout and dashed forward. While Zoro looked as though he was really giving it his all, Mihawk kept his composure, and even seemed to be enjoying himself. A fierce swordfight broke out, looking as though it was going to mess up the room.

"Horo horo horo"

With a backwards glance at the two fighters, Perona chuckled to herself.

"That guy Hawk Eyes is nicely occupied..."

Getting all fours and erasing her presence, Perona headed towards the wine. Just a little further to the table where the wine rested...

Five meters, four meters, three meters, two...

Suddenly, a dagger came flying.

"Gyaah!"

Perona screamed and jumped. The dagger pierced through the hem of her dress, sticking into the floor around where her knee was.

Looking at the swordsmen, Mihawk was blocking Zoro's attacks while directing a triumphant look her way.

"You- you noticed me!?"

"Of course I did."

The dagger was stuck quite deep and even when Perona tugged at it, it wouldn't come loose. She couldn't move but on the other hand, ruining her dress was an absolute no-no.

"Damn it, I can't get out!"

Looking back at Perona, Zoro engaged in fierce combat with Mihawk. He aimed at the stuck dagger once a gap opened up between Mihawk, who was guarding himself steadily and the knife blade, shooting an attack at it. However Mihawk abruptly turned his sword without breaking his stance, stopping both of Zoro's katanas at once. Zoro could not brace himself against Mihawk's pushback and he was blown backwards. Mihawk took a little breath, and this moment's carelessness escaped Zoro's notice, but not Perona's.

Spoiler: 2

Dinner that day was prepared by Mihawk. The sight of the world's greatest swordsman standing in the kitchen wearing an apron was something that only the residents of the Shikkearu Castle would see. You couldn't imagine from his usual proud look that he would be standing there carrying his cross-shaped sword on his back while inserting a bamboo skewer into a roast chicken from the oven.

Today's menu is roasted and sauteed chicken. Indeed, a menu that pairs well with red wine. The sautee contains plenty of vegetables picked from the fields. The meals in Shikkearu Castle are oddly organic. Once Mihawk got to the dining table, he ostentatiously poured the wine into glasses.

At the bottom of the clear glasses, the red liquid sparkles beautifully. Just by looking at it, the dreamlike flavour comes to life on your tongue.

Seeing Perona's resentful expression, Mihawk looked at her, exasperated.

"It's just wine. Don't make such a pitiful expression."

"Wha-I'm not!"

"You are."

Mihawk lifted the glass to his lips.

"Mm." He stared at her with those hawk-like eyes.

"This is... good wine."

"It is, isn't it!"

Perona brought her face closer to Mihawk's.

"Don't you wanna make this great wine even more tasty? You do, don't you! I propose we make this wine into sangria!"

"No."

"Wha-!"

Startled by the sudden rejection, Perona was briefly at a loss for words."

"There's no need to mix in other things with this high quality wine."

"But adding fruits will make it sweeter and cuter!"

"I'm not interested."

Why!?

Perona sidled up to Mihawk, but was driven back when he replied

"Don't come so close. It's annoying."

She did not give up on hounding him.

"What about trying just one glass of Sangria? Once you try and see how delicious it is, you might change your mind!"

"I'm not changing my mind." came the immediate reply.

Perona ignored him, rolling up her sleeves and grabbing a kitchen knife.

Sangria is made from mixing wine with fruits and sugar. Ideally you'd want to leave it overnight, but even putting the fruits in just before drinking should produce some flavour. Lemon, apple, orange, peach, peel off the skin and chop into bite sized pieces. She'd planned to cut them properly but the end result was messed up. Unlike Zoro who'd cut melons sharply and firmly, Perona could not make such neat cuts.

"Seems like I messed up somehow.."

She tried cutting them various ways but none of them went well. No matter how she cut, they were never the way she wanted them.

"Uwaah! I can't cut them properly!"

What to do? At this rate, Mihawk will take all the remaining wine for himself.
