User blog comment:YazzyDream/Oda Going on Break After Chapter 597/@comment-1859380-20100825170126

Well I saw recently what latest chapter is supposed to be about as a rough translation(no translations on the pictures) and there really isn't a cliffhanger. It kind of explains what Oda meant when stated this is Luffy's last adventure as a 17 year old. The rule will also apply to other straw hats' age too. It also explains what Luffy's tattoo really is. Hope I didn't spoil to might
