How can some of yall not wrap your brains around the fact that Vegapunk being there, heavily injured, is doing more harm than good to the situation. Like he can just get pushed to the sidelines, and Kizaru is going to forget all about him, and be like "Now, lets have a proper fight." Sanji had to get Vegapunk out of there, because he is the target.
Yall are so wrapped up in unrealistic scenario's that happen in manga, that you can't grasp what the most logical action should be, when something like this happens, which is to save the man who is at deaths door. Not kick him to the side, and pray he's still alive when all is said and done.
