I feel like Oda shot himself in the foot when it comes to these big wars when he had Luffy effortlessly knock out thousands of fishmen with his conqueror's haki.
Like, last chapter and this one give this feeling that the beast pirates just have too many members for the alliance to reliably win, so having Tama have the power to turn so much people to their side was meant to feel triumphant i guess, but we all know that most of the fodder in onigashima could be knocked out by a Luffy and Kaido conqueror's haki clash and that the top executives are the only ones that really matter.
