Volume 107 comes out this week, and the SBS info has been leaked! Credit goes to various providers for info:
-Someone guesses that Imu's appearance is someone with a pointy mouth. Oda plays along with that theory:
-Someone wonders how Vegapunk cleans his huge head. Oda answers that he dips his head in a pool of "brush fish" that scrub his head clean:
-We get the name of Bonney's DF! She has the powers of the
Toshi Toshi (age) no Mi! As we already know, she can use it to manipulate the age of herself and others. On a related note, someone else asks why Luffy was so quick to correctly call Bonney by her proper name (instead of "Boggy" like when they first met). Oda explains that after hearing the story of her father, Luffy felt bad about misnaming her so he felt the need to fix that mistake.
-It's confirmed that Ben Beckman of Shanks' crew was the one who took Kid's arm.
-Someone asks if Caribou heard Luffy announcing his dream back in chapter 1060. A lot of people asked Oda about this, so he finally puts it to rest:
NO, HE DID NOT. Despite Luffy shouting to his crew, the swamp man couldn't hear anything from inside the barrel, so it's only the crew who knows their captain's secret!
-Someone wonders what profession all the admirals (both past and present) would have in the real world. Oda says that would be radio presenters!
-Someone wonders if Coby gave up his dream of becoming an admiral by joining SWORD, so Oda further clarifies: While SWORD members entrusted their resignation papers to their superiors, that does
NOT mean they've actually quit their jobs. It's just that they're considered more expendable than your average sailor, and are well prepared for the risks involved. So no, none of them are actually "fired" from the force.
-Continuing with SWORD-related info, the stuffed bear Hibari carries around is one she had since childhood. Once, Coby saved her life in the battlefield, but she lost her bear during the rescue. Coby actually returned to that place and found her bear, but got in trouble as a result. Since then, she secretly named the bear "Coby-senpai". However, Oda says that he himself is unsure if this means she developed a crush on him or not.
-More SWORD stuff! We learn why Prince Grus wears such a long cap. During his childhood, he was a gloomy kid who always looked down while walking, which resulted in him constantly bumping into things. Once, he accidentally bumped into some pirates, which got him beat up. From then on, his mother made him wear the long cap as a preventive measure so he won't bump into anything anymore!
-And last, but not least, Oda based Vegapunk Pythagoras' design on the titular character of the show
Ganbare!! Robocon.
And that's about it! Nothing particularly mind-blowing, but still some amusing little tidbits. Glad we finally got the name of Bonney's fruit, at least. That means the only remaining supernova whose power is still unknown is Urouge....
