This is the same - everything is fine: We are still on Egghead, with Lucci slowly coming into focus again and Kizaru still talking with Akainu. What Oda is just doing now, before he gets to the best part, is evening out the power imbalance between the SHPs and the WG on Egghead and setting other fractions up for the final saga. Then he will come back to address the main plot line of Egghead again (Vegapunk and Lucci), which he has so long avoided, and which will ultimately result in one final main clash between the SHPs and the marines. This was, what the powerscalers were missing this arc, right?
And look – Punk Records is floating up and slowly away from the island (maybe even with York and the mother flame on it). If the WG were to just let the Satellites take everything away, the mission would end in complete failure. Don’t you think that at least the WG would try to get everything of their most important goals back? And if they try, who is there to stop them? Only Lucci… .
Everything is fine, Reloaded. Only a few more chapters to go (- and then you can cry and beg for me to be lenient.
