Brooke's story started as Sanji reached Zaza. Nami's group is on the opposite side, and they are near Gunko's ice block and not currently moving. Oda would've had them running towards Zaza's location for the transition when the flashback ends. It's safe to say they won't be involved with...
Yes, Jimbe and Nami will hold off Zaza while they listen to Brooke's story many kms away on the opposite side of the island, as Zaza is currently kidnapping the kids right infront of Sanji and their dying mothers. That makes sense?
Nami's group is more likely to get their rematch vs Gunko, with...
The strawhats saw Sanji "die" In a sea of black flames and just moved on? And now they are just standing around sharing stories as kids get kidnapped.
What's wrong with them?
We currently have 5 strawhats who would rather stand around and talk about a 70 year old story, and 1 more talking with an owl, rather than help save the kids, or destroy a magic circle, or even just flee before Imu shows up.
Only thing I would say is at least Gunko hasn't been portrayed as...
Zaza gonna have some connection to Vinsmoke past.
Now Sanji has to choose between breaking his chivalry and fighting a "fake" water woman. Or keeping it and letting the actual women around him die. Also letting the kids getting kidnapped.
Oda even made sure none of the other strawhats are...
Oda spent 7-8 chapters on Kuma, Ginny, and Bonney. 3 side characters, 2 of whom are dead, and the 3rd becoming an extra.
Oda's dragging things to get Luffy's entrance on a number like chapter 1200. I expect this chapter to be minimum 2 months long.
On one hand you have Imu struggling vs non-hybrid Loki.
But then, Blackbeard failed to beat Bepo (actually lost to Bepo), struggled vs Law, and was scared of Old Rayleigh who is far weaker than Loki.
Neither Imu or Blackbeard are final villain material anymore.
The issue is the timing. Like it was 70 years ago, it could have been placed in the Godvalley flashback between the start of Haralds flashback and Loki' birth.
Oda could've replaced the entire Shakky plot with the Brooke flashback.
And it's all happening while the main fights are just starting...
Namis group really are useless bums. Last thing they saw was Sanji "die", so now they stand around doing nothing listening to Brooke tell some story, all while a crisis is happening.
Like go escape on the sunny instead if you're gonna do nothing.
Yeah Sanji's speed feats of saving Edison, flying from vegatank to Bonney, and vs Nasjuro were all changed/erased in Toei's filler anime.
Not to mention his 2 winning scenes vs S-shark changed to losing scenes.
And then going against the manga and having Sanji simp over Bonney.
And removing...
Using blue walk = kicking the water.
Aka, Sanji has to kick Zaza to use bluewalk.
That would still be breaking his chivalry.
There's no way to save the kids without him either fighting her or having someone else handle it.
If Sanji doesn't hit Zaza and she takes the kids to the boat and someone else has to save them, be it Zoro, Jimbe, or even Usopp, then yes he's failed.
Not saying the kids won't be saved in the end, but it would not change Sanji letting everyone down. And unlike Ennies lobby/Wano, there's no...
