The chapter was mostly about Kyros' flashback: a soldier of the riku army, the love story between him and Scarlet, the birth of Rebecca and how he became a one-legged toy soldier.
We had a sneak peek at the coliseum, how Sabo is having a great time against Burgess and Barty keeping up with Diamante's verbal bullying against Rebecca.
Franky did his job quite well since he made the fight long enough to give usopp time. And come to think of it, he isn't in his shogun and he had the 3 coliseum fighters against him: Machvise, Senior and Dellinger with the other DD family members and fodder marines. He deserves a standing ovation.
And while everyone is rooting for Usopp to do something, we can see a clearly trapped and lost sogeking. Trebol even reported to Doffy that he doesn't need to be that concerned as to get Sugar back to the Royal Palace.
Their underestimation of the vivid picture of Usoland's defeat started the gag and controversy of how the SOP was successful. A true version of turn-of-events.
Avid readers would dream that Usopp will use his shooting skills to put the tatabasco into Sugar's mouth. She will become unconscious. Toys would turn back to their human forms.
But we're talking about gOda here.
This isn't the first time that we thought of such an amazing plot and hoped it would somehow reach gOda's wide imagination. For reasons of character development and such, I would say that, no one other than gOda would do justice to the last page of this chapter. I'll even rate it as 8/10. Its amazing how a mangaka remains unpredictable even though a lot of his fans have been reading his works since 1997.
What more can we ask for?! I quote "The end doesn't justify the means." Usopp fought even though he knew from the very beginning that he can't win against the two. It was mere luck giveaway from the heavens, perhaps Norland or Enel.
And what not? This happened to Perona in Thriller Bark. We didn't quite knew what Sugar is afraid of or disgusted for?!
but my theory still remains that SOP was succesful because the tatabasco was used to keep sugar unconscious.
P.S. Opinions remain since there is a hidden contract of respecting one's thoughts.
