The go way the hell out with Toyo's accent and have him use "shall" on page 6. It's not even a good rendering of a hick accent.

What bumbling retard thought it was a great idea to make Toyo sound like a mentally handicapped third-rate pirate? I hope the next chapter he returns to speaking like normal or at least in a moderately understandable way.

EDIT: The first comment I ever make on this site, after being here for a few years, and it has to be about some retarded translator trying to pretend they're cool. Smh

Man, I know you guys want some flair to his speech but at least make it understandable.

This just makes Toyohisa looks like hillbilly from Japan, even disabled person has better speech than whatever this is.

One problem with using this way of speaking is it brings along the flavour of its origins. Unfortunately, some variations of English aren't the best choices when you're aiming for a "transparent" translation. Toyohisa's speech here gets overlaid with something distinctly un-Japanese, and this breaks the suspension of disbelief.
