It's just me or the last 4/5 chapters had a slow pace ?
1 chapter to show F6 feets
1 chapters to show their design
1 chapters of Kaido telling them about this incredible and enthusiasm mission of finding his stupid son.
*btw better wait for more spoiler.
? not at all. We went from being on the shores of Hakumai to being into Onigashima's port while Oda:
- Explained how the alliance dealt with Orochi's sabotage and Kanjuro's treachery.
- Brought Luffy, Law, Kid, and Denjiro's side together with the Scabbards
- Returned Jinbe to the crew
- Explained the infiltration plan
- Gave us a few action scenes
- Guided everyone to Onigashima's entrance
- Not to mention the perspective on Kaido's side the last 3 chapters. Introduced the Tobi Roppo, confirmed 5,8,9 and 10 Numbers, confirmed BM's children will be present, confirmed Orochi has Onibawanshu and Mimiwarigumi protecting him, and teased Kaido's son.
Remember how many people he has had to balance in even these 5 chapters, I think the manga has been going at a really good pace for what needs to be done.
