Ok for the sake of the conversation ill assume that you are not a troll.
First of all most people started watching one piece at the marineford arc so they thought that since marineford was great then all the pre timeskip arcs were solid too. Thats not true at all.
People complain about the lack of death in one piece. Did arabasta arc had any deaths? Did skypiea had any deaths? Did ennies lobby had any deaths? What about thriller bark or sabaody? NO DEATHS AT ALL. Suddenly everyone started complaining about it. People like you, are not and wont ever be real one piece fans. First time i watched one piece was in 2002 and i guarantee that is better than ever. Its not perfect, flaws exist, but dont act like is suddenly bad or sth.
I am 100% sure that if we were in skypiea right now, none of you who complain for everything that is happening, would watch it. So make us a favor and stop watching it and return to the other mediocre manga you were reading before.
