One piece is awsome! The crew are awsome almost as ND, well they prob are since ND are based loosely on them teehee.

A fast forward of the action in the latest arc in the anime i'm sure uve all seen the cool dramictic vid i put up well heres the events leading up to the crews defeat. Perhaps abit of background.

The crew have reached the Red Line where some stuff quite unimportant happens, beyond the red line is the new world a place where only the most fierecest of pirates can survive. But before they can cross the red line they have to go to Sabaody Archipelago a dangerous place for the pirates because its very near marine headquaters where the very powerful marine Admirals reside. But an imfamous pirate crew are safe (weak ones will get screwed) because decendents of something important dwell in this island and are basically nob ends and like to deal in slave trade as well as slavers capturing people and bounty hunters, to hit one of these ****ers (the decendant guys) will end in the marines coming at full force. On the island the crew learn of the 11 Supernove (which Luffy and Zoro are apart of) basically they are pirate captains with the exception of Zoro and Killer who are members of crews (Zoro = straw hat crew, and Killer = Kids crew) who all have a bounty of over 100,000,000 and thus expected for greatness in the new world. Now the straw hat crew have faced tough challenges getting where they are today (as seen in last amv) and ofcourse made a name for themselves the same can be said for all the other pirate captains and there crews the reason the straw hats have never crossed passed with these guys is because there are several ways the to travel the grandline, seperate routes but all cross at the Saboady Archiepleago. (it would be intestesting on hearing the adventures of all these other guys but no matter).

Anyway on the island some stuff happens involving new friends of the crew and Luffy ends up hitting one of the decendant dick heads thus marines attack and the 11 supernove and there crews must try to fight there way through the island and escape however standing in there way are several robot copys of Kuma (one of the royal shkubai or something basically pirates so dangerous the marines let them off provided they work for the marines) the 11 Supernove and there crews (u only get to see some members of Kid and Laws crew they the 2 guys fighting alongside luffy near start of this amv) do well against these guys but eventually a Marine Admiral appears and starts owning left right and center eventually getting to one piece crew who are helped by Rayleigh the aged first mate of the pirate kings old crew. They also must contend with another Kuma robot that appears, the inventor of these robots who is imba in all and finally the real Kuma arrives and scatters the crew as it stands no one knows what happened to the other 9 Supernove. But enough blabber onto the amv!
