Indeed. Their fight will last days, shaking the earth to the core while neither party manages a fatal blow. Then, their finisher attacks will collide, with Zoro shattering Mihawk's black blade with his own and slashing him across the chest. Zoro will become the first swordsman to ever destroy a black blade
Might as well kill Mihawk too. That's how you surpass your master in a lot of nip fiction. :myman:
 
Baratie is mad underrated too but there was some unneeded filler in it IMO like the Pearl fight and the fucking Baratie cooks reacting to every little thing and literally taking up panels on every page
Pearl was used purely used tohighlight Sanjis will.

Oda wanted to show how far Sanji was willing to go to protect someone he truly loves and he didn’t want Sanji beating Gin so he needed to weaken Sanji in order to show Sanjis effect on others like Gin

Welcome to the House of Hope
He's just a really weird character to me even for One Piece standards lol
Grown up in the jungle, can create fire out of his ass, ... ???? He doesn't even look like someone who was under Don Krieg IMO contrary to Gin
I think his theme is fine.
He's mad focused on defense because he probably has hemophobia. So when he's panicking, the flames act as an extra self-defense to keep enemies at bay.
I think Pearl is fine. Nothing too amazing, but his "theme" works out.

The U.S. is well below the world average in terms of the number of mass public shootings, and the global increase over time has been much bigger than for the United States.

Over the 18 years from 1998 to 2015, our list contains 2,354 attacks and at least 4,880 shooters outside the United States and 53 attacks and 57 shooters within our country. By our count, the US makes up less than 1.15% of the mass public shooters, 1.49% of their murders, and 2.20% of their attacks. All these are much less than the US’s 4.6% share of the world population. Attacks in the US are not only less frequent than other countries, but they are also much less deadly on average.

Out of the 97 countries where we have identified mass public shootings occurring, the United States ranks 64th in the per capita frequency of these attacks and 65th in the murder rate.
Not only have these attacks been much more common outside the US, the US’s share of these attacks have declined over time. There has been a much bigger increase over time in the number and severity of mass shootings in the rest of the world compared to the US.
Mr. Lott, meanwhile, turned to data from the University of Maryland’s Global Terrorism Database and followed up with Nexis and web searches to try to catch cases that the database missed.


He said good data exist only for recent years, so he looked from 1998 to 2012 and found 1,491 mass public shootings worldwide. Of those, only 43 — or 2.88 percent — were in the U.S. Divide that by per capita rates, and the U.S. comes in 58th, behind Finland, Peru, Russia, Norway and Thailand — though still worse than France, Mexico, Germany and the United Kingdom.
