That's a rule that you've made up. There's no obligation for Oda to follow it. We haven't even seen the weakest of the straw hats win in 1 on 1 matches so your theory is already disproved.
It's not a rule I made up. I'm not making up any rules. I said that "generally" the strongest fighters are shown last and found it strange as Jimbei was shown first. That's it. I didn't come as and say "Jimbei << Franky, since his fight was shown first".

Yea but you're not taking into account the scale of this war. In Alabasta or Water 7 there were a completely equal amount of Straw Hats and enemies. In Wano, Jinbe will keep fighting despite having won a 1 v 1 match. It's a totally different situation.

I know it's a different situation. I merely called it into question because Jimbei seemed to have had his big fight. But I agree that he can continue fighting and even take in a bigger opponent. We can't know. I never clamied certaintity. I just found it worth some note.

What even is Robin's new form? :ha

I liked that chapter though. Was good to see Robin get fucked up and not have an easy win. Was also nice to see the flashback of her timeskop training which we've known nothing about. I'd like an explanation on that technique tho lol.

Maybe it is Haki. The form is black after all.

Also Brook = G4 Luffy confirmed after beating one of the Numbers.

I hope Momo doesn't get turned into an adult. Suddenly he'll become some powerful Samurai and his fruit will get a huge boost? Fuck that

Nice chapter. Zoro and Sanji fighting King and Queen together is what I'd hope for from the start. I hope it turns into a tag team battle as opposed to both going their separate ways.

How did Hawkins manage to use Kid as his shield?

Also apparently King's race lived on top of the red line.

King and maybe even Queen could be stronger than I was giving them credit for. They pushed Marco to his limits which we didn't even see at Marineford. Granted it seems that both of them were fighting him.

The only thing I don't get is how does Ulti survive a Big Mom attack but every other Tobbi roppo get ko'd by weaker ones.

Maybe she's the closest one to commander level. Luffy was about to use G4 on her.

Idk what else they could've done. They can't all be commander level fighters.

It feels like Oda is trying to get the plot moving which I'm fine with. If the chapters were lionger then perhaps there'd have been more time to flesh them out and showcase their abilities, but Wano is already extremely long at this point. I think their overall purpose was to show how the Straw Hats progressed, and they've completed that role.
