Lol at the convo between Boa and Smoker, and Smoker not knowing if she was serious or not. xD

Also, I'll follow Buggy anytime. :3

Out of the main Commanders, Vista gets the least attention. More Boa fantasies are fine by me, still pacing isnt too bad, at least theyre at the part of the pacifistas, still not looking forward to the next major part.

I enjoyed this stuff and Mihawk is pretty cool. I enjoy his voice acting and it's interesting to see where this going. Pacing, as per the usual, is a definite low point. I mean, why hasn't White Beard done anything, I'm assuming he could destroy just about anything and anyone with his abilities so..

Pacing is slow, just like a few of you have already said, but I don't mind it. Action is good and the comedic moments (Boa's day dream of her being married to Luffy and Buggy being used as a shield) were good parts as well.

Mihawk must be the only one noticing Luffy's ability in comradeship and swaying people for a cause.. and as such the most terrifying power on the sea.. LOL at Boa thinking up her marriage haha Man, the sea will be empty of Sea Kings after she cooks them for Luffy :-)))
Looks like the Marines are playing seriously now.. They're trump card - the Pacifista :-P

that, and the fact that most of the big shots are actually not fighting, makes this "war" look like just a small ambush.

btw, do you remember in the beginning of the arc, Marco got into a battle with Kizaru, but it seems oda forgot about that, since kizaru is now gone and marco is just standing around staring at the battlefield.

Damn Oda making his villains / quasi-villains so awesome.
Makes me feel almost guilty for loving them as much as I do.
Mihawk is ten kinds of awesome.

true. I love some of the "bad"guys too. And of course Mihawk is one of them. Wonder how good of a swordsman Vista is. Cause he seems to be able to handle Mihawk...
Mihawk is right about Luffy. One of his greatest powers is to make everyone like him, protect him and follow him. He is just so likeable :)
I am curious how they are gonna face the Kumas...

Back when I first watched the Baratie arc and we saw Zoro vs. Mihawk I never thought the day would come where we got Luffy vs. Mihawk.
Thank god he's got all these guys helping him, or he'd be dead ten times over by now.

Just like Mihawk said, Luffy's deadliest weapon is his ability to unite people...that's why, despite initial appearances (and denseness aside ofc) he makes such a good leader.

Also wondering if Mihawk has a Devil Fruit or not, what with all that talk about "seeing peoples fates". Is he a devout Christian? Is it some form of Haki? Is it a DF ability? Or does he just like cryptic messages & metaphors?

He's so mysterious!

Like how Jinbe is just picking off Luffy's enemies so he can go ahead. He's a swell guy...I could definitely see a place for him with the SH crew- they need a wise, responsible dude like him bc nobody completely fills that role yet. It's sorta juggled between Robin, Nami and Zoro on occasion

Oh my gosh that was the best non-twist twist ever. Using Pacifista's, something not many know about, as a secret surprise attack is just obvious. If they aren't using them now then what's the point of building them for so much money. There's just been so much going on that this happening honestly didn't cross my mind. That was cool.

As for Mihawk, I've always had this image of him as a good person and a lone wanderer. Maybe a Zoro figure who just wants to improve his own swordsmanship and when that's not in play he doesn't act. But I based this on very little. This episode helped me clarify the kind of person he was and just how strong he actually is. Firstly, the "I don't remember the face of every worm" was an unexpectedly brutal line for me to hear! It's not like Zoro doesn't say brutal things, if I recall he said some disheartening things to the 'fake' swordsman he met early in the series for sure. Just, it took me aback to see him slice through people while calling them worms and trying to kill Luffy while spouting 'fate'. To talk about his skill, this was an amazing episode, it was absolutely amazing for selling who Mihawk is. I am immediately in love with him.

Luffy was cool to do a mid slide second gear but what was even cooler was the fact that through all the commotion, Mihawk lived up to his nickname and he spotted him like a hawk spotting its prey and then sniped him across the battlefield. He then beats Jimbei with the blowback of his swing. Then, Luffy nearly gets his arms cut off with a badly timed jet bazooka, like my jaw dropped when Luffy saw his arms fly off in his head. Luffy knows not to underestimate Mihawk and he's intuitive when it comes to this kind of thing so to change direction at the last minute was amazing too. But the to top it off, yet again Luffy can only run from his foe and this time one swing cut an entire frozen tsunami in half... With one swing.. WHAT THE HECK. He is so strong... That was a darn good way to explore Mihawk's skill.

To touch on Luffy's intuitive fighting skill, I adored when he grabbed Buggy from the sable and used him as a human shield. It's so Luffy to realize in a millisecond that the best counter to Mihawk is the chop chop man himself. It's pretty hysterical that Buggy is like the best power when it comes to fighting Mihawk. Luffy and Buggy are such a good duo, Luffy can take the blunt weapons and Buggy can take the sharp ones and they will ((almost)) never lose!!! Hahahahahaha. Speaking of Buggy a little, it was great how he convinced his men to crawl quietly through the battlefield. This is why Buggy has lasted so long with so many greats, this cockroach's opportunism is unmatched. To get up after that complete loss and act like it was all according to plan instantly is why he's one of my favorite boys in One Piece.

Another thing that I liked has to do with the Crocodile and Doflamingo meeting as Doflamingo preached nearly exactly what Crocodile did in Alabasta. I recall Crocodile giving the exact argument that what matters is power and if you don't have the power to make the world how you want it to be to shut up. Don said "the era where power conquers all" is coming and he offered Crocodile a spot with him, sure there may have been some dishonestly there and potential betrayal, but despite Don telling Crocodile exactly what he believes and wants himself he took offense to Doflamingo treating him as an equal. That is the Crocodile I love, the absolutely arrogant asshole with a superiority complex. Even when proven to not be as good as he thinks he is he will still talk down to everyone who doesn't bow down to him. It is just great and it made me realize that conversation couldn't have gone any other way. To think of a real team being made in that context was naive of me. I missed Crocodile.

Edit: I rewatched the scars on the back scene and realized Mihawk only gave Zoro any sympathy due to his strength! He clearly values a swordsman's strength above all else. He chose to kill Zoro with his black blade out of respect and when he saw his resolve to die admirably he let him live. He made a bet on the future like Shanks did with Luffy. But his brutality towards the weak was always there.

Their battles continued but the situation ended up getting from bad to worse really quickly. It looks like they're really going to execute Ace ahead of time and what could possibly be every Pacifista ever made have all gathered around and joined in on the war. The former could still be a trap used to bait Whitebeard into leaving the safety of his ship but it's hard to tell.

Hawkeye may be the most powerful Warlord and he hit the nail on the head when he said Luffy’s skill is rallying people. I wonder if that’s because of the conquerors Haki or did he get the conquerors Haki from unrelenting resolve.

I also think that Buggy will use the transponder snail to film Ace’s execution thwarting Sengoku’s plans.

People complaining Whitebeard is "doing nothing" when he's literally leading the entire fleet. He needs that vantage point to see what's going on..

Also everything is happening in "anime time" so who knows how much real time is passing. I'm sure Whitebeard's moment will come soon.

I don't mind the cyborg stuff, but I don't like how its being done. It's not explained very well, nor foreshadowed very well. It's like, Kuma is a robot now and okay? So? How does that change anything? Why should I care? His character was robotic enough already at Thriller Bark.

Mihawk is my favorite warlord. He got an amazing look, his fighting style so bad ass for someone who does not have devil fruit, and I love his insight and personality. Also Zoro nowhere close to him yet. Good thing he not here.

Boa continues to be outrageous and I love her so much for it.

Idk how whitebeard side can win now with all this Kuma clones. I think dragon coming in is the only way. Btw her my warlord rankings

1) Mihawk
2) Kuma
3) Blackbeard
4) Crocdile
5) Hancock
6) Jinbae
7) Flamingo
8) Moria

I love 1-6. Still wish we had more of Flamingo and Moria only one that’s kind of lame
