To be fair, I would be surprised by both Imu taking a beating AND the Strawhats taking a beating. I just didn't expect that guy to show up this soon. But yeah, Imu is about to wreck their arch.
This is what I've been talking about in the last two weeks. Observe the way Franky talked about the situation, how most felt "good" and "relieved". Only Jinbe kept a cold head.
The last time Oda has made the Strawhats lose their guard on this magnitude was in
Sabaody.
It's pride. And it's about to get punished.
