Of course Nika had to clean up Sanji's sloppy work of a fight. What's so impressive about Sanji beating the weakest Holy Knight without his best power again?
I think its becoming clear that Haoshoku Haki is related to Buddhahood, which explains Mihawk's Words "Know yourself, know The World",
Wukong was granted Buddhahood by Buddha and He was given Title of "Victorious Fighting Buddha" or Buddha who conquers through Battle, which He attained by being a guardian and protector to someone,
CoC Users are basically One Piece Version of those who seek/achieve Buddhahood, by being Leader Figures who choose to serve Greater Purpose than themselves which includes helping/protecting others,
Thats why Oda added those scenes of Luffy and Zoro bowing to their enemies, something we've only seen Roger do so far, that demonstrates how close they are to attaining Buddhahood,
People forget that Nika and Buddha are variations of Human Fruit, and what did such DF do to Chopper? It gave him Human Knowledge, able to think no different than a Human, for an Animal, thats insane enlightnment,
Sengoku's DF didn't only grant him Buddha Power and Form, it also gave him Buddha Mind, so Sengoku might know crazy stuff about the world and OP Universe even without completing Journey like Roger's, only thanks to his DF He tamed and mastered,
Mihawk's Words suggest He also achieved full buddhahood and after all Oda was gonna call him Clairvoyant for Eyes He shares with Imu (Who btw, his Name can be translated as Buddha)
Sengoku, Imu and Mihawk know things far beyond others, and CoC Users in general are those who seek to conquer such enlightenment but through Battle rather than just following teachings and peace
Mihawk does have a somewhat Arahant demeanor, detached from the material reality and not guided by desire. Or at least he was so during pre-ts more than he is now in CG.
If the DF granted Sengoku truths about the world and he still chose to work for the WG, it could fit into Ray's speech about "figuring out who's wrong and who right" regarding the Void Century.
The WG is overtly evil as of now. But if Nika is a rampaging monkey god and those who followed him, i.e. the warmongering Ancient Giants, were responsible of countless genocides, maybe the structure imposed by the WG is the lesser of evils.
BB's anarchic goals also fits perfectly into this.
Between a totalitarism that saves more lives than it ends, and an absolute freedom that disregards personal safety, totalitarism might be the way for the ordinary person who doesn't have a haki or DF strong enough to let them stay "free" from chaotic agents like Luffy and BB.
Crazy the amount of monsters and fighting power we have in this island, both villains and good guys, they're combine power could solo rest of the verse.
That makes sense lol I was weirded out because I specifically remember Zoro having his suspicious about the heart only when he saw it. If he already knew why the extra dramatic shit then lol
So why is Sanji getting a pass for his opponent not using his best power against him, yet Zoro has been mocked for years for King turning off his? I'm just calling out the hypocrisy here.

Looks like we're finally exploring the concept of Zoan Awakenings going wrong with Mythical Zoans, when before we only saw it with the Impel Down Jailer Beasts.
We had to deal with the "personality" of the Nika Fruit at some point, and, honestly, Elbaph is a great place to do it, lore wise.
