| I know One Piece isnt exactly known for their top tier story telling and consistency but come on now. Nobody even questions that a buster call was made on the judicial island of the world government? Thats like if the oval office called for a nuke to be dropped on the pentagon, it makes no sense. I know the World Government will do anything to make ends meet, but to destroy such an important island for the world government to try and kill someone that escaped before? Seems silly |
PurgatrioFan666 said: only admirals can call buster calls, being the most important elements of the navy. So if one of them calls for one, they kind of assume its a really serious situation not true at all, all it takes is a golden snail. if one is stolen all it takes is a pirate to take one and call it on anything he wants |

Also, If a pirate had enough strength and skill to do so then theyre likely powerful enough to not need a buster call to destroy an island Also a Pirate summoning a buster call is the same logic as a criminal calling the police on himself. Why would a pirate wanna summon an entire navy fleet to his location in the first place? |

Seems silly That “someone” just so happens to be Nico Robin. Enies Lobby is obsolete compared to her threat to the world government since her existence and curiousity can potentially expose what the Government has hidden for 8 centuries. |

Losing the Judiciary island is meaningless if your literal rule is at stake You’re also overestimating the value of Enies Lobby since: 1) It can always be rebuilt after the buster call. The marines have already proven that they have the resources to do so in the later arcs 2) Losing the “passage” means nothing since destroying Enies Lobby does not necessarily mean the passage is gone. Again, the area Enies Lobby “was” on is still the government’s territory. If anything, it was a better strategy to destroy Enies Lobby than let it become a Pirate Territory that has easy access to Marine HQ. 3) Also, assuming the passage to HQ and Impel Down were to be destroyed. It does not directly mean that its impossible to reach HQ and/or Impel Down. Lastly, how exactly do you know they didnt ask questions? For all we know, the officers may have questioned the orders offscreen or they may have followed the same “Absolute Justice” belief that Admiral Sakazuki believed in and therefore didnt question the order |

Seems silly Once again, the premise of your question makes little sense. Enies Lobby wasn't an important island, at least not as much as you're making it out to be. The island was basically a giant courthouse, one that wasn't used often anyway since it was implied that most pirates just pass through the island and go straight to Impel Down without a fair trial. Also the activation of a Buster Call is absolute since only high ranking officials like the Admirals are even allowed to activate one in the first place (Spandam having received the rare privilege from Aokiji), so nobody in the World Government is supposed to question it. |

yitaku said: why didn’t Luffy use Gear 4 against Caesar Clown?! Why?! Why?! Why?!?!?! Because he didn't have to? He won in the end using Gear 3 so why would he have to bring out Gear 4 for a battle that he won with only slight difficulty? CC was a pathetic villain and iirc he even begged Luffy to spare him at the end of their battle. That's how much of a non-threat he was. |
