After all that flashback, imagine not being able to land a single punch on the thing that destroyed your life.
:milaugh:
That's why Nika is there, we know who is going to inflict the final blow

However, if this situation gets more complex and Kizaru starts kicking Kuma and doing stuff like this, the shit gets insanely much more interesting than simply having Luffy defeat the main villain
 
It would go insane, honestly it would deepen his whole "unclear justice" even more and I'm all for it
It would be meh if Kizaru switched to the other side so quickly after over 30 years of loyalty to the most vile organization in history and when he was chasing Vegapunk just 5 minutes ago , even if he doesn't like what he's currently doing.
It'd make more sense for Oda to build it up slowly by showing us more of his inner thoughts.
 
You make it sound less hype than it is, typical MC hater

It's not about Luffy merely going back to Gear 5

It's Luffy getting Gear 5 back IN FRONT of Saturn, Kuma, Bonney, Sentomaru, Kizaru, Vegapunk and the Strawhats
You mean.... what everyone is expecting at this point or at the end of the arc?
Luffy in G5 in front of Saturn is 100% happening!!! Is innevitable, predictable and needed for the plot to continue...

Everyone and their moms knows this is going to happ.... This NEEDS to happen to make sense... I'm not a Luffy hater, I wouldn't be here wasting my time after 1000 chapters if I was a hater of the freaking protagonist of this manga!! What?

I'm just saying Kizaru/Zoro/Saturn/Kuma or another surprise character could be be doing something exciting that no one is expecting, but Redon may be exciting on what EVERYONE knows is going to happen yey!!
 
That's why Nika is there, we know who is going to inflict the final blow
Nika didn't get his memory completely erased, nor transformed into a cyborg, a slave for the most evil "people" in the verse.
Kuma did.

Sure, Nika will probably defeat him, but Kuma deserves a spot on it, a very important spot, so that the Flashback plotline could finally be completed.
Kuma doing nothing just to be saved by Kizaru is just ridiculous and It makes the flashback look like a joke.
