For anyone interested, here are the spoilers for Chapter 554. Please take note that the spoilers I post are not of my own source, so credit for finding them goes to Arlong Park which got it from someone named Nja from a Naruto site I believe. ANyways, here you go:
Spoiler:
***SPOILER ALERT***
Chapter title Admiral Akainu coverstory Chopper
A Mythical Zoan even rarer than Logia, that regenerates from any attack with flames. Phoenix Marcooooooooooooo And Kizaru fights each other, but neither of their attacks affects each other.
Third division captain (Jozu) picks up an iceburg and throws it. Akainu feeling danger from it, finally gets up and shoots a beam of magma, called "Eruption", and destroys the iceburg. A volcanic boulder is thrown at Whitebeard, but he casually stabs it with his polearm.
Why don't you go light a candle on a cake, boy. says Whitebeard
Bunch of pages of unnamed characters duking out
Finally, Little Oz Jr, a decsendent of the Oz that had Luffy inside of him before, shows up to rescue Ace. VA Otsuru says well there's a bothersome one...
The shadow user (Moria) sees that, and wants his corpse. Doflamingo sticks his tongue out, saying he's tingling with excitement. It ends right there.

Well, the new chapter is out, so go take a look if you haven't already.
I'm actually somewhat disappointed with this chapter due to it'ss length. I mean, 15 pages? And half of them were spreads, so it's not as though we got everything we could for this chapter. Oda must be busy if he can't do a full chapter with better quality. Also, I don't think the title really fit this chapter at all. It's called "Chapter 554: Admiral Akainu", and yet he only appears on like one of the pages which just show him destroy and iceburg. The only upside to this chapter was the confirmation that Marco was a Mythical Zoan, the phoenix. Also, Oz Jr. is actually Oars the III, apparently meaning that Oz's official romanized name is "Oars", unless his name got tweaked further down the line.

One Piece is 554 chapters long? I have some work to do in Battle Zone. Nah, I kid...maybe. Mostly.
Anyway, I couldn't stand the dub anime, but I was told the subbed one is much better. Frankly, I have yet to judge for myself. I don't read much manga, so I haven't experienced the One Piece manga for myself either.
Somewhat interesting that a One Piece movie is coming out. I'm being more than optimistic when I say I hope it doesn't flop. Most of the time, though, these producers and directors just can't replicate the anime no matter how hard they try. Or, if they even care about that; we can mostly tell they're just trying to squeeze more cash out of it usually.

This is actually the 10th movie that One Piece is trying to pull off. And to make sure it doesn't flop, they actually got Eiichiro Oda himself to write and direct for it! So I'm hoping it'll be better than the previous 9 movies. :p
And I would recommend reading this series rather than watching it. The manga is just much more appealing to me except for those epic moments that you need to see animated. For instance:
But yeah, take a look into it if you have the time. This is perhaps my most favorite series of anything aside from LOST and The Simpsons.

Huzzah! I was hoping we'd get spoiler tags! Now I can put up the next spoiler without having to worry!
Spoiler:
Title: Oars and kasa coverstory: Nami's weather report in sky island (kasa is a type of buddhist hat)
The story starts out with Oars rampaging through the marines. He's about to break through their defence line. The giant marines say how they usually fight looking down, they've never fought looking UP They charge in to Oars Jr, but can't stop him.
Oars breaks through their defences, and the pirates follow him into the bay The first pirates to break through charges at Hancock, but she turns them all into stone She attacks with Aroma Kicks (Nja didn't provide with furigana, so we don't know what the move is really called, Aroma Kick is from the kanji) And the stoned pirates shatter into pieces. However, some marines got caught in the fray and shattered as well. Marines are questioning if she's going to turn against them. Hancock replies, she agreed to fight Whitebeard, but you men are all still my enemies. Well, other than "that man". You have to realize that. Forgive me... for my beauty. Marines become lovelydovey
The unstoppable Oars comes right next to Whitebeard Whitebeard advises him that bravery and wanting to die is a different thing. Oars Jr asks him (politely) to understand him, he just wants to save Ace as soon as possible
Whitebeard orders his men to support Oars, but Oars takes focused fire by the marines due to his size Still he gets to the square where Ace is held, but Kuma attacks him with Ursa Shock, and Oars is badly damaged. He has a huge kasa on his back, but that falls onto the sea. Oars stairs at it, as the scene goes to flashback....
Ace: Because you're closer to the sun, I'll give you this kasa! Ace's crew: Because he's fire, he burned this thing up twice while attempting to make it... take care of it! The kasa kept him from getting wet in rain, and stopped snow from gathering around him.
Oars gets back on his feet, to save the gentle hearted Ace To at least take out one Shichibukai.... He attacks DoFlamingo, but DoFlamingo casually dodges it, and flies up in the sky. He jumps to around Oars Jr's head, then cuts off his right leg. (with a powerful unseen string?) Oars falls down, but he tries to reach out to grab Ace Moria: Damn that bastard Doflamingo!! I told him I wanted his corpse, but he goes and cuts off his leg!! He creates a long spear made of shadow, and stabs Oars in the heart.
The chapter ends as Oars Jr die (unclear if true or not).
Can't wait for the new chapter to come out. It's going to be full of epicness. Though I'm more interested in the powers of Doflamingo. I hope to god he doesn't use strings to control people. It would be lame if he did.

Yeah, this was a decent chapter. Sad yet amazing at the same time. I really want to know what Doflamingo's powers are so we can figure out what he's been doing this whole time!

Spoilers for Chapter 556 are out. Here's my own version:
Spoiler:
Chapter 556: Justice Will Prevail!! Cover Story: (Nami learns more about clouds...)
The shichibukai watch as Little Oars Jr. slowly dies. Doflamingo takes control of one of Whitebeard's division captains (Atomos) and begins to attack the pirates. A vice-admiral giant attacks Whitebeard, but is taken down with ferocious strength from the power of the Gura Gura no Mi. Whitebeard and his pirate decide to charge forward into the bay from the path that Oars cleared for them.
Coby and Helmeppo attempt to escape from the fighting along with several other lower marines. Akainu stops any deserters with the brute force of his magma abilities while Coby and Helmeppo hide and watch. Whilst controlling Atomos, Doflamingo gives a speech about justice and claims that this battle will decide who is good and who is evil.
The Whitebeard pirates have breached the bay in two different areas which leads to Sengoku stating that it's time to initiate a plan. Tsuru uses some form of devil fruit that allows her to treat her opponents like laundry. Garp disapproves of the plan but is threatened by Sengoku. Helmeppo notices something falling from the sky. Luffy, Ivankov, Jinbei, Crocodile, and all the other prison escapees along with the hijacked marine ship are falling from the sky.
