Chapter 599

Chapter 599 is called "9 Pirates".

Cover
Luffy is shown to have been put to sleep by counting sheep as those same sheep steal his food.

The cover is titled "Luffy gets put to Sleep by Sheep and has his Food Stolen" - A request by 'Twin Mother (双子母)' in Hyogo Prefecture

Short Summary
The rest of the Strawhats are shown in further detail. Luffy is shown on the Kuja Pirates' ship prior to landing on Sabaody (again refusing to marry Boa Hancock). The confrontation between the Fake Straw Hats and Luffy is resolved by him dodging a bullet and rendering them unconscious using his Haki. Robin is shown arriving at the Thousand Sunny, meeting up with the new and improved Battle Franky 37. Franky comments on Brook's newfound success and wonders whether or not he will actually return to the "pirate life". Brook is shown in concert, singing. The chapter progresses as the Fake Straw Hats regain consciousness. Fake Luffy hardens his resolve to find Luffy, Nami, and Usopp. However, Fake Luffy is informed that Fake Robin (Cocoa) has been kidnapped. He decides to leave her behind, which angers Chopper, who is still under the impression that they are the real Straw Hats. Chopper storms off to find Robin. As he walks away, Marines are revealed behind the corner reporting to G1 that the Straw Hats are alive. Sentoumaru hears of this and decides to take himself, PX-5, and PX-7 to Sabaody. The chapter ends with Sanji witnessing a one-eyed Zoro emerging from the ocean, having cut in half a coated pirate ship that he had accidentally boarded.

Chapter notes

 * Luffy is shown using controlled Haki for the first time.
 * Fake Luffy briefly mentions that Luffy's Bounty has increased to 400,000,000, probably due to the events at Impel Down and Marineford. But there is no other confirmation as of right now if this is just an exaggerated boast by Fake Luffy or a genuine bounty increase.
 * The real name of Fake Robin is revealed, it is Cocoa.
 * The new Franky is shown, stating that this will be his "first and probably last model change".
 * The Thousand Sunny is ready for departure. Some of Sunny's weaponry has been upgraded by Franky.
 * Zoro is now illustrated correctly, with his left eye cut, rather than his right (a mistake by Oda).
 * The spelling of "Monkey D. Luffy" on the recruitment poster is corrected, as opposed to the mistake in the previous chapter, which reads as "Monky D Luffy".
 * Fake Nami and Fake Luffy have now both stuck a pistol at their counterpart's face, and both times, claiming "their" bounties as a sign of power in order to threaten their counterparts.
