Awesome, we are getting multiple pages per captain of the self-proclaimed fleet.
Gastino and Brulee should totally disappear of the story and live forever in the Mirror World together. It's funny to see that Gastino pretends to put up a fight once he regains his heart.
I re-read the chapters from the point where Luffy jumps out of the cake until the point where the picture is shown. And everything seems to be happening fast enough and the reaction time of the Big Mom pirates is realistic. Potato can see into the future and he is the only one capable of react fast enough to all these events. For the most part he does accomplish his job, but then it's a surprise after another, Jimbe shows up, then Pedro. Bege catches Luffy, but then betrays them. Jimbe and Pedro were told to go all out, they manage to disengage from their current opponents. Bege shoots at Potato, only then do the other members realize that Bege is betraying them. Before, he had just yelled some weird symphonia crap. Before that, there was this huge cake towering over everyone, not to mention that even though Potato can see into the future, Mama almost punched him for interfering with her fight.
In regards about the Big Mom pirates with the Vinsmokes, I cannot say that I would not have done the same. Each member of the Vinsmoke family has two members of the Big Mom family pointing a gun at them. That seems appropriate as a contingency.
So it ended up being more of an indecision, what a scream. I wish they would have fired already, but it is indeed getting juicy.
It seems that even as a kid Big Mom had a gluttonous personality.
Elbaf got a tree, so either Adam or Yggdrasil or Adam is Yggdrasil. This flashback could be shown in several instances as the conclusion of the arc approaches. We are barely going to scratch the surface of what Elbaf is with this flashback, I doubt we even see the full spread of the tree. Mother Carmel seems legit. I wonder if Bonney was also saved by her and her appearance is due to Mother instead of Linlin. If the method of developing giants has been sought for years, could Mama be a product of those experiments?
