Kizaru killing his friends just because its his duty is despicable, so glad this goofball is getting pancake-diffed. He's done.
Could not say it better myself. I won't shed a tear if he dies at any point now. That Kuma and Bonney moment where he tried to kill them and made that sick comment was the breaking point.
But he is a Marine and Admiral ofc and whatever life he's had, whatever motivations he has, whatever has influenced him, he has his free will and he's made his choices, I hope karma gets his ass hard now especially. Beyond the pancake/pizza trolling and Gear 5 Toon Force humiliation in general.
He really is just a corporate slave, a cog in the machine and he's very disappointing. Sanji is in a sort of similar situation and he rebelled, he rejected Judge and his enforced slavery, he broke free and has truly become a man and his own person too, he's done what Kizaru should have done and he's far braver than Kizaru for that too.
In fact to think of it, Kuzan did what Kizaru was meant to do. But shame he chose to join Blackbeard of all people ironically, oh well. Its great for Blackbeard fans and getting to see Kuzan go all out and not be so restrained plus it gave us Garp vs Kuzan so there's that.
Idk what Oda has planned with Fujitora but I doubt he will defect too, he could get fired or demoted but I doubt it. Probably be part of reforming the Marines entirely or joining a seperate group of Neo Marines set to rectify the mistakes of the current Marines and their corrupt history and thus "be better" than them (basically what Swords role should be).
