Sure, but that’s the problem. Many of us want CG to actually be a cool and competent organization rather than just be a conduit for more unfunny gags
That stopped being a thing when Buggy took over as gag leader.
Yes however much Oda says mihawk and crocodile don’t respect buggy, plot matters above wherever Any character feels… And the plot is on buggy’s side… The plot wants Buggy to reach laugh tale and have Mihawk collide with Zoro so the plot bends to Buggy’s shit.
This is now a buggy plot. The entire cross guild is a buggy plot. So it will function in Buggy gag logic of a bunch of random nonsense happening and out of nowhere Cross guild will have reached laugh tale
