Man, what a good chapter.

You know, what, though? I really don't feel that scared of the non-Kaido beast pirates now. The Gifters/Pleasures are basically mooks, and the Headliners/All Stars all feel like people that could be taken down by the best of Luffy's allies - between Zoro, Sanji, Law, Nekomamushi, Inuarashi, the rest of the Straw Hats, and the Scabbards, I wouldn't put too much faith in Queen/King, assuming they're roughly on the same level as Katakuri. Throw in the Grand Fleet - who will probably be attracted by Luffy being brought to the edge of death by this disease - and the rest of the Headliners and All-Stars ain't going to be a problem.

I just don't think Kaido has enough big-name followers around. He's still unbeatable, sure, but the rest of the war has to keep our interest too. So, this has to get worse before it gets better. How are they going to reinforce Kaido's forces? Kaido must have some sort of allied faction incoming. Is he going to make a deal with Big Mom, or use her to coerce the remaining BM pirates into working for him?

I get the impression we've seen Shanks' deal a long time ago; the Red Hair Pirates are super chill and have nothing to prove, and are far more eager to start parties than fights, but once you cross the line into genuine threat they do not gently caress around for a second.

Yeah, Shanks genuinely doesn't seem like a bad guy to me. Therefore I'm assuming his eventual confrontation with Luffy will be more a test of skill rather than a legitimate fight (if they wind up fighting at all that is).

It'll be a Davy Back Fight, with Foxy as the judge. Then it can all come down to a sniping contest between Yassop and his son!

I initially thought that Luffy had somehow absorbed the virus/symptoms from the prisoners, curing them entirely, instead of just giving them the courage to somehow not die from a hemorrhagic fever.

I can't wait to see Chopper finally get his big moment by running for help from Law, who will swap the virus with skittles or some poo poo and everyone will sing about how great he is while Chopper stands in the corner being ignored.

Jack and his forces alone kept the Minks in a standstill. Inuarashi and Nekomamushi couldn’t take him down solo. The Disasters are pretty strong and there aren’t many people in the allied forces who can take them.

Plus you have the Orochi’s forces who aren’t pushovers. Not to mention you shouldn’t be underestimating the Headliners, Sanji was struggling with just Page One and we haven’t seen them all yet.

What I’m looking forward to is when all the Supanovas join up and take on Kaidou. Hell i just want to know what Scratchmen Apoo is doing, he’s the only one not taking an active role at the moment and we know he’s hanging around somewhere in Wano

Being bummed at Chopper not getting to do cool stuff is fair.

Getting bummed when Chopper is obviously about to do something cool is weird. I guess I can understand why the continued neglect makes it feel like it'll never happen... but it's actually about to happen now, for real guys!

I honestly thought that Luffy was going to be immune to the virus because he's immune to poison and there was going to be a gag about it or something, so when he made that gesture and actually got hosed up by it I was honestly shocked.

That's an incredibly hosed up weapon concept for a kids comic, by the way. Like, holy poo poo. It uses some goofy cartoon logic, but the effects are incredibly gruesome.

The minks were handicapped by being gassed and fighting in gas while Jack's team all had masks. They wouldn't have done so well otherwise.

The reason King wears a Vader mask is to keep him alive despite the deadly poison he breathed in 3 years ago.
