Great chapter! Finally a chapter that feels long with all these things happening! We had filler after filler chapters for so long that this change in pace alone was refreshing!
I don't understand neither Zoro or Sanji haters... Why can't you just enjoy the chapters rather than fighting over silly things... Oh, Zoro is panting while fighting Lucci, he is weak... Oh Sanji can't move cause of a power we know nothing about, he is pathetic... All this while failing to notice the simple things...
Zoro is fighting with 2 swords. It should be obvious by now that his 3 sword style is on a whole other level than 2 sword style, especially after his fight against killer. He was struggling against him until he used the 3 sword style which ended up instantly overwhelming and one-shoting killer. Why he doesn't immediately use 3 swords against Lucci you would ask. Well cause Mihawk is his mentor, "You don't use a cannon to hunt a rabbit". Everything is about training for him and it's his nature to handicap himself when fighting weaker opponents cause he would gain nothing if he was one-shoting everyone weaker than him. Lucci is stong enough for a decent training section, that's how I see it and it's even more obvious now after what he said to Lucci.
Then there is Sanji. In this chapter Sanji activated his exoskeleton which is obvious based on his eyebrow so things will probably get a lot more interesting. When he was pinned down by Saturn his exosceleton was not activated. In Sanji's case it doesn't look like he can activate the exosceleton at will and it's not clear if he knows about it at all so we can't really judge him for that. I don't know if the exosceleton would make a difference against Saturns power but that's exactly the thing! We don't know what this power is! He Just glared at G5 Luffy and he was spitting blood while Kaido barely scratched G5 Luffy with his most powerful attacks! We don't know what it is so we cannot judge yet!
I ll admit, between Zoro and Sanji I like Zoro more, I think he is more level-headed and cool compared to Sanji but that's 100% Oda's fault. Sanji's simp behavior is just off-putting for me... Still I am always looking forward to both their fights and I don't pray for neither of them to be humiliated by Oda so my "Forum Zoro/Sanji enemies" don't make fun of me. At this point I am sure the threads would be at least half the pages if it wasn't for all this hate...
I ve also found Catarina's actions interesting so I did some research and I think by touching someone she can spy on them no matter where they are. From the Wiki: These kyūbi no kitsune (九尾の狐, 'nine-tailed foxes') gain the abilities to see and hear anything happening anywhere in the world.
