We are now getting Tama in Onigashima, but we could have skipped lots of panels, if not chapters, if Oda had played in advance and actually used Denjiro's facade (instead of wasting it almost completely) by sneaking kibi dango in the Fire Festival's feast so many gifters could be out since way earlier and we could get faster to the fights.
It's just an example of what I think Oda should have done to manage the plot in a more fluent way.
