The disappointment comes from all the overhype.
Either way, even if Kizaru isn't out. What was the point of this chasing around type battle for 2-3 chapters? What did it achieve at all? We got a few hints that Bonney somehow matters to VegaPunk and that her past was connected to VP and Kizaru.
Even if they were all related to the god valley incident, I just don't see much point in all of this. We didn't see much going on. Even the pacifistas were switching sides doing a bit of damage here and there, but nothing more. Vice admirals were literal fodder this entire time.
I'd be more upset about the long chase that finally ended in the fly-swatting White Star-Gun.
Was there some foreshadowing I missed out on in these chapters?
