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

Government just nukes the shit of the location where the golden den den mushi was pressed they do not think about why since the poeple who own 1 are usually high trusted indivuals who would use it for a real threat. BUUUUUT Spastman is dumb and thats why it resulted the way it did. Also i think they can rebuild the place relatively quick with the help of devil fruits

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

im trynna make it simple for you because you are not understanding.
The golden dendenmushi is a property of an admiral. This admiral can use it, however he also has responsibilities. If hes not careful enough to keep the Golden dendenmushi safe, and bad people do bad things with it, it is an admiral's responsibility.
If you steal a gun to a police officer and you kill a person with it its both your fault and the officer's. The thing we are talking about its the same matter but in a different scale (a much bigger one)

Stealing a Golden Den Den Mushi from an Admiral is easier said than done. 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?

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 Enies Lobby is obsolete compared to her threat to the world government since her existence and curiousity can potentially expose what the Government has hidden for 8 centuries.

you underestimate enies lobby. losing it means you lose the passage that leads not only to the world government hq, but also to impel down. i dont doubt that they wouldnt immediatly buster call enies, but the fact that nobody asks any questions is just bad writing

yeah but getting one isn't a piece of cake. only admirals can grant permission for bustercalls and they entrusted spandum with it coz spandum was at ennies lobby with cp9 + robin is not some normal small pirate she is the only one who can read poneglyphs which only makes her even bigger threat than luffy at that time, so its logical to carry a bustercall snail for an backup plan if anything goes out of hand.

Is Enies reconstruction worth B 80,000,000 and the few bonus? Probably not, so no problem.
If someone in pentagon in a safe line, with credentials to do so, said, bomb the place, would someone outside pentagon even question before doing it?
If it prevented Enies Lobby from becoming a pirate settlement, would any navy member oppose the idea of destroying?

I believe that you also happen to be underestimating Nico Robin, who’s existence literally threatens the very rule of the World Government. 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

Well the island isnt completely destroyed and we know that enies lobby isnt that important anyways so why would anyone care about it

I'm not sure you finished the anime
No pirate in their right mind would willingly try to pass through the gate without putting their life in the line
Only Luffy can think of doing that . the only time it was done was during Marineford and it was for a reason they were willing to risk their lives for

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.

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.
