Philosophically speaking,though,One Piece is a manga about people who love risk,especially its main character. So if we think about that,the philosophy behind this chapter may seem a little weird or inchoerent.
But i guess it made a great chapter anyway
 
The thing is, doesn't learning Rokushiki usually take years of gruelling training? I don't think its something you can really learn from just a few short pointers (for the most part).
Well Luffy learned his own version of Soru with Gear 2 after his first defeat with CP9. Was that some days of observation and reflection?

Sanji's Sky Walk, similar to Moonwalk, was learned during the timeskip. I doubt it took the entire time for him to learn to run away in the air.

The Strawhats have gone through rigorous training, in particular the timeskip, so implementing what they can from Six Powers does not seem impossible, IMO.

Regardless, it's time for Sanji to step up to be a Conqueror. It will be interesting how he doesn't get hit and damages Killingham. Counter kicks each time he dodges???

I hope a lot of people here can look back on some of these arcs more fondly in the future. I totally understand how the pacing/teasing has led some people to get pissed, though.

I just can't imagine hate-reading One Piece, if I actually hated Sanji or Zoro that much, I'd just drop the freaking manga.

random wisdom I found.
The moment you realize this, you will have a much more positive online experience by learning to filter the "hate engage"
 
Fantastic chapter. A fun fight with enough time spent on a nice flashback. It may have been a bit late to suggest Sanji had such a drastic reaction to some of Ivankov's teachings but I think it ended up relating very well to Sanji's current dilemma. Self-love is incredibly important so for a character as focused on passion as Sanji is, this chapter fits very well.

Killingham merging with a nightmare is cool, same for him managing to land some good hits on Sanji. Sanji saying he won't get hit again is nice. I like how this is an attempt to have Sanji make progress with his fighting given he does tend to get hit by attacks he can dodge and he's quick to sacrifice himself (which isn't strictly bad but the people around him are impacted as well so him being able to have compassion and care for himself is a fitting direction to take him).

The end was great. Sanji talking smack and ready to demolish Killingham. Will be great to see him display CoC next chapter. I hope the whole chapter is dedicated to wrapping up this fight.
