Yeah good writing :
- New Gen gets crushed easily by Old Gen
- All the wano development to waste cause well, it is Saint Shanks
- Kid doesn't even get to fight Saint Shanks properly cause well Saint Shanks can't be hurt or struggle onscreen
- Killer could get up but Kid couldn't acter one blow, despite tanking a lot from rooftop to the end of want arc... all cause it is Saint Shanks
- No, Kid doesn't even beat the fleet capatins or YCs ...it is just a future which Saint Shanks saw where Kid does damage
- His crew begs for his life and give up RPs (they could have even burn or throw them into the water...no need for lame actions)
But for you it is good writing
Cause "Saint Shanks must win to meet Teach and Luffy"
Kid losing isn't the issue, the way he loses is dumb
Oda preferred Money over proper storytelling
