One Piece, Chapter 838: Bropper
The main parts of the chapter is Luffy fighting against Cracker, but we do get a bit of other subplots for a couple of pages. Before we delve into the Luffy/Cracker fight, let's talk about the little subplots first. We've got Nami scaring the shit out of the Homies with threats about Big Mom. We've got Chopper (who insists on being called Brother Chopper, what?) and Carrot finding themselves in some weird Wonderland Mirrorland thing with weird spatial dimensions and whatnot, but it's apparently connected to all the mirrors in Whole Cake Island, and they intend to make full use of it. Brulee's still out of commission, apparently. Brook and Pedro's infiltrated the body of a biscuit soldier and are planning to use it to get into the castle. We've got Big Mom discussing the problem of the Straw Hats with her own hat. Sanji's shaking in fear as elsewhere his two older brothers, "Sparking Red" Ichiji and "Electric Blue" Niji show up. They both look like utter douchebags.
With all the progression of the little subplots done, let's talk about the bulk of the chapter.
Luffy uses a Kong Gun to shatter Cracker's sword and... rip his body in half. I expected him to be some kind of weird logia biscuit thing but a smaller man shows up and cuts down into Luffy's Gear-Fourth-Haki arm and draws blood. It's not a case of 'two small dudes pretending to be a big dude, but apparently that's Cracker's real body and he looks a lot more badass than the big fat deformed lumbering dude. He's also got a weird log-shaped hair thing. Apparently the big body is just one of many biscuit armour that Cracker can create with his Devil Fruit: the Biscuit Biscuit Fruit.
(The blood we saw before was jam. Because of course.)
Cracker then summons a literal army of his biscuit armours, noting that it took a fair bit from Luffy just to take care of one armour, let alone all of them. Luffy... either moves his arms very fast Gatling-style or he spawns four extra arms with his rubber body, and launches six fists straight down at the army of biscuit armours, as a Gomu Gomu Kong Organ, but he barely cracks the biscuit soldiers' shield while Cracker's main body goes in with the sword.
Yeah, Cracker's not going to go down that easily. And now that he doesn't look like a total fool I'm actually excited to see this fight go on for a bit. Yeah, the Yonko aren't going to be pushovers at all.
