this doesn't feel like the right place for Big Mom to be defeated. She probably gets knocked out and our heroes bolt out of there

Elbaf has to come into play as it delves into her backstory and resolves some questions about what actually happened that day

Sanji defeating her with cooking does sound like a much better outcome than more punching.

The majority of Emperors we've seen thus far seem to be complete freaks of nature, Shanks and maybe Whitebeard are the more normal ones, Whitebeard merely having an incredibly broken Devil Fruit.

While Luffy clearly and consciously takes after Shanks in personality and style, it seems like he's closer to Whitebeard in methods; combining incredible physical strength with a Devil Fruit power (with the Gum-Gum fruit being more like a Zoan in that it complements and multiplies his physical power rather than being unrelated to it like most Paramecia) and having close-knit crew and a large and diverse range of allies who follow him out of choice from personal respect and admiration.

Luffy is more like Shanks (and Blackbeard, I guess?) in having a small core crew who are all strong, as opposed to having a bunch of nobodies around like Whitebeard or Kaido.

I fully expect the anime to go all Looney Tunes on our rear end when Queen hightails it outta there
Also it makes sense that it would take a loving BRACHIOSAUR DIVEBOMBING on top of her head in order to get Big Mom back to normal.

Exploration is ill-advised.
If you're gonna get Worfed by someone, Big Mom is one of the more forgivable ones in One Piece. Can see why Queen is one of Kaido's top people now, especially since with Big Mom knocked out the first thing he does is immediately assess the situation and begin damage control. Can also see why they don't think much of Jack.

because I'm sure Queen knows that Kaido and her have a history and having a captured Emperor is a big deal. They've probably also heard the news of Big Mom's territory being in shambles and thought this might be a good opportunity for a hostile takeover

that and they could try to use her as leverage over her children

Oh yeah, Rayleigh did toss off a collar like that! How can haki do that though, does it interrupt the explosive mechanism or something? Oh poo poo, Luffy should already be able to stop Big Mom???? Hahaha Luffy concentrating and the old man being like “you got this!” Then they both immediately get slapped away. lmao the legs sticking out of the wall are great. Luffy seems to be in pretty good shape, though. Ooooh, you can move your haki INSIDE of something else? That’s pretty cool! I guess it would explain how they got the collar off? By injecting haki and destroying it in a way it doesn’t “expect”? Oh hey, Queen is back up and kickin! Haha Big Mom looking back into the oshiruko pot. BRACHIO BOMBERRRRR OH gently caress NO DID THAT JUST RESTORE HER MEMORIES OF MY loving GOD NO NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOoh, she fell asleep. gently caress YES, TIME TO TAKE UDON!

On the one hand yeah but on the other hand eliminating the biggest threat of an unfriendly force and one of your biggest rivals. Would be bad for the story to just off her like that though

So this new Armament trick, the way it is described it really reminds me of what Sabu did while masquerading as Lucy in the Dressrosa coliseum when he fought Burgess/destroyed the ring.

The One True Oden

I mean, Big Mom already survived being thrown into the ocean ONCE. Bringing her to Kaido as quickly as possible really is the safest option, he's the only person on her level.

Also, this chapter was delightful. The cliffhanger from last week being resolved with Luffy failing and being embedded in a rock wall like Wile E Coyote. Everyone continuing to Enel face when they see Big Mom. Luffy realizing he can now freely wreck the prison at the end.

This is Oda at the top of his game.

I'd have to go back and check, but I'm pretty sure he was holding on to both collars at the time.

It is but instead of hardening, Luffy can impose his will on inanimate objects so hard that he makes things explode with his mind.

For an explanation of how this new Haki technique works, please read all of Hunter X Hunter.

(But no, putting your ki into someone else and destroying them from within is a pretty classic Martial Arts Film thing)

All hell is going to break loose when Big Mom breaks all those chains through sheer force of will and starts a new rampage

its pretty reasonable i think to assume big mom might genuinely be able to break the chains through sheer force

Yeah the thing with Big Mom is even when she was a child, with no special powers, she was a natural born disaster.
Remember when Jinbei water cannoned Big Mom into the ocean and it barely slowed her, who by that point was exhausted and skinny, down?
