Forum:Why does neptune say jamon

It's probably a running-pun, like Hercule's putting n on Usopp's name and Ivankov putting v on some pronouns.

The only difference is that Ivankov and Heracles' verbal ticks are canon. Neptune doesn't say jamon in the manga. My guess is that the writers were bored. 05:52, February 16, 2012 (UTC)
