The Strawhat pirates together with Trafalgar Law have reached Dressrosa in the previous chapter and have split up according to their plans. Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and two others entered into a bar and met an old blind man with incredible power.
Fujitora?

| Fujitora? |
Earlier, Admiral Sakazuki sent a man named Fujitora (looks not disclosed) to go after both Luffy and Law in the island of Dressrosa. There are lots of speculation for the blind man to actually be an Admiral since Fujitora means 'Purple Tiger' in Japanese. This is similar to the current and ex-Admirals, Akainu, Aokiji and Kizaru which respectively mean 'Red Dog', 'Blue Pheasant' and 'Yellow Monkey'. Their names which are actually combinations of 'color and animal' may be an indication that Fujitora is a new Admiral, which will replace Aokiji's place.
Akainu, Aokiji and Kizaru are all Logia type devil fruit users, which may connote that Fujitora's new skill is also based on a Logia fruit. If the blind man is indeed Fujitora, some have argued that he has the power of gravity seeing how he defeated a bunch of men in the bar by sinking them into the ground, creating a huge black hole. Some also argued that he controls earth since earth would be considered as a Logia type.
Colosseum
When Zoro realised that his Shuusui sword was stolen, he went chasing after a 'fairy' for it. Luffy and the rest went to the colosseum and discovered that the prize for winning would be the Mera Mera fruit (fire Logia) that belonged to his late brother, Ace. The main question is, would Luffy participate in the colosseum and withhold his initial plans of destroying the factory that produces 'Smile' just for the sake of the Mera Mera fruit?
