You do realize that the pages you just posted just give more importance to Law, right? I'll take a guess here and say NO, but we have dealt with Dofla's fans in the past and they're always delusional and apparently you're not the exception.

Can we just drop the fanboy/girl discussion? In the end we all know Dofla get his ass kicked by Luffy wether we like it or not. So just drop the useless talk.
Pretty surprise Evil is still around. I was sure only Zephos got the right to talk like that(And even him as a lot of reincarnation).

Wait you are saying that Doflamingo talking about Law's ability to accomplish his goals along with the chapter being named Op Op no mi rather than Law adds more importance to Law ? How so ? Mind explaining this ?

….... Law is the user and ? Oda is placing the importance on the powers not the owner of that powers . And Doffy wanted Op Op no mi way before Law even ate it and even wanted to make Law third "corazon" so he can get the fruit , not the other way around .
But hey whether you choose to believe it or deny it ,it's all up to you . I can't make you believe anything .

Doffy D. is either trolling or unswayable, so I'd just drop it. Remember, we haven't read future chapters and thus, can't absolutely prove whether Law or Doffy is the more important character in OP overall or going forward. This then becomes a matter of opinion where each side believes themselves right and can not be swayed.
Of course it seems obvious Law is the more important character going forward, and I think most people would agree but not everyone apparently. The only thing i'll say is perhaps Doffy is/ will be more important to the story as a whole for what he's already done/ involved in… maybe.
If law uses the ope ope no mi to use the national treasure of mariejois like the story may be hinting at, then hands down law becomes more important, since he ate the only fruit that makes this possible

i don't think that someone would get this detailed backstory if he wasn't a very relevant character.

This is a good statement and it applies to both Law and Doffy. I don't know why we need to go on and on about who's more important.

Yea How silly of me for assuming the roles of these characters based on the way Oda presented them because we all know that Oda doesn't foreshadow and set up things like these very early on . After all One Piece is made of random crap that no one but Oda knows anything about or can predict .

Oh yes because i so said that Law is not a relevant character when i stated this " Law is basically like Vivi in a sense that he is an important character in this arc and saga but not so much in the future or the entire One Piece main plot" .
-
Wow, this chapter was great. And I hope that in the anime, they do it justice because especially with Roci's fruit I'm imagining lots of quiet moments with not a lot of BGM and then him getting shot. And Law not being able to be heard until Roci died and thus knew the exact moment of his death was just so sad. I was not expecting to like Roci as much as I did this flashback and he very quickly grew to one of my favorite characters, especially of this arc.
But to get to a more pressing matter…
Doffy D. Evil where the fuck did you even get this thing.
I can't tell if it's satire, or if someone honestly just failed at memeing over a meme. At this point it could be either.

So you're assuming the importance of these characters based on the information we have about them now. Understandable. However you
1. Don't know the limit of Law's involvement. He might still be in an alliance with luffy after Kaido is defeated and that alliance isn't based on geographic location as in the case of Vivi. She was a princess and everything she was doing was to save her kingdom. It would have been out of character for her to just leave it all behind and join a pirate crew. It would not be out of Law's character to continue his alliance with Luffy especially if it is successful.
2. You overestimate Doffy's importance because there are a host of other characters that have the information Doffy does and Luffy could encounter any one of them. You also have no way of knowing that Doffy won't relay what information he has to someone else thus ending his direct importance.So what superv and Vectorkov are saying is that based on the information we have they are both very important characters and we have no way of know how important they will be in the future. Only that right now they are important and at least until the end of this Saga they will be important. So there is no point in arguing over who is more important because unless you have the ability to predict the events of the manga long in advance they are both important to the foreseeable future of the manga.

1- Law is a D.
2- he's an ally of SHP and they want to defeat the 4 yonkos together.
3- his devil fruit is the key to the treasure that dofa is talking about.those three things diffidently need more than one arc to resolve.

2. Law has proven multiple times that he wasn't interested in Kaidou or anything . His main goal since the beginning was just to destory everything Doflamingo has build up and strawhats were part of that too so ..........
3. A treasure that only Doflamingo knows about so again.............. -

!
These pages along with the fact that after Dressrosa arc the remaining strawhats will head towards Zou where Law's crew is at the moment from what we know . So no i don't think that Law will be playing any big role in the next "big" arc ( that is mostly likely the arc where Kaidou will be involved) unless you are gonna tell me that Law will be involved with the Wano Kuni arc despite him not having any connections to that arc at all and even stating himself that him making an alliance with the strawhats was just to stop the production of smile all for the sake of his revenge against Doffy .

@Doffy.:
Same avatars = same person ?!!! ROFLMFAO!!!!
Law is a D and he knows Rocinante and …...............? What other important connection does he have ? Hell Oda put more emphasis on the importance of Law's fruit ability considering that Doffy would have used that ability to get whatever that national treasure is then Law himself.
Uh, Luffy? The main character and his ally/rival?
And the fact that Law has the ability makes him important, I suppose. The fruit is part of Law now.
We don't really need Doula Mongo to find out what this treasure is anyway. He's not the only person who knows about it (Celestial Dragons, Gorosei…). And it's not like Doula will be able to use it.

Yes but not on a main-plot-importance important level like some Law fans seems implying . As i said before he is important in this arc but not to the entire main plot of One Piece .
I don't know how it works but considering that the world nobles are allowing him to do whatever the fuck he wants must mean that it's really big secret that they can't let the world know about it so i highly doubt Law is simply gonna find the info laying around . Of Course i don't know how Doflamingo will get it either .
-
-
Oda invest seven chapters and still counting to reveal Law's past and some still doubt the importance of Law? I'm not a fan of Law either but that pirate is here to stay. Law along with his DF will play a crucial role.

Nami and Usopp are not interested either bro. I'm not saying that Law will be a nakama at the end of the arc, but he will definitely owe Luffy one.

16 chars of ^^^this

a) You have to be the first person I met to complain about the protagonist being protagonistic.
Also, do you even know what a Mary Sue is?
I do, though exact definitions are blurry at best.
b) Luffy fights as a proxy most of the time. Kuro, Krieg, Arlong, Crocodile, Enel… none of those guys were personal enemies of Luffy. He has always fought those guys for other people (doesn't matter if they are other Straw Hats, princesses, allies or just people he likes). Heck, remember when he fought for a fucking dog?
You could say that his personal stake is higher than anyone else because he's invested with all characters involved. Law could give a shit about the Rikus and vice-versa.
I respectfully disagree about Enel not being personal. He fried part of his crew and abducted his navigator. This is about as personal as it gets.
Kuro and Krieg I will give you, but those were in the beginning of the series. We've grown to expect a better standarts thanks to Oda abandoning those.
Arlong and Crocodile use the same method, but it is better executed. Nami and Vivi respectively spend entire arcs being part of the crew, before being used as motivation for Luffy's fight.
Obviously it has been done before, but I feel like it has been done better before.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
A) The Rikus really aren't that strong in the first place. Sure Rebecca and King Riku are above average, but only Kyros has really stood out. And he's currently fighting his wife's murderer. Can't complain.
As for Fujitora….umm...well he's helping? Sort of? Ok, not really, but at least he justified his actions...kind of. I guess doing nothing fits his overall agenda for dismantling the Shichibukai? This isn't working…. Hey, remember that time he stomped Sabo without breaking a sweat? That was cool!
Rant on Fujitora waits until the arc ends, so I don't have people going at me "But Oda will totaly fix it all before the arc ends, dude.". His motivation to not enter the fight changes weekly. And hillariously, is shown to be wrong constantly. He is utterly screwed over by Oda desperate to keep him out of everything.
And I would agree with you on Rikus, if not for one thing: the entire country is turned into a warzone, and they do nothing to fix it.
Out of all the people not directly fighting against family, Maynard is doing the most of good work. Maynard! We have supposedly good, moral characters sitting around and waiting for Luffy to do stuff while people are dying. That is not something that should be happening.
B) Luffy doesn't have a personal reason for fighting very often. Most of the time he just fights because the bad guy hurt someone he cares about, but sometimes even that is iffy. Remember Mr. 3? Or Wapol? Or Bellamy? Or Foxy? Or Hody? And Caesar! He literally attacked Caesar because he was told something interesting would happen if he did.
Seriously, Luffy always fights for others. The two things that piss him off most are hurting the innocent and contradicting his moral code. I daresay Doflamingo has done both.
Ceasar was a part of the deal. As for others… I'm not saying that it hasn't been done before. I'm saying that it isn't done very well this arc, especially considering that Doflamingo is a villain with big build up.

Fujitora really doesn't have any excuse to not be out subduing Parasited townsfolk. He's just sitting on his ass like the rest of the characters up on that plateau. Only Ussop has done anything remotely commendable. Like in some ways it makes sense that they're just fortifying their own position, but the freaking king is there doing nothing.
Basically, what I think you're saying is that you don't have a problem with people pinning their hopes on Luffy, just with the fact that many of them are doing nothing while they wait for him to win. And I totally agree with that, given the state of the country.
As for the other part, this actually is one of those instances where Oda has plenty of room in the future to expand on the dynamic between the two characters. Luffy really does have plenty of motivation to fight Doflamingo. Between Rebecca, Kyros, Bellamy, the civilians, the dwarves, the Grey Terminal parallel, potentially Law, and Doflamingo's general dickishness, it's all there. The problem is that Doflamingo hasn't developed his end of the relationship because he's been so focused on Law. He hasn't talked to Luffy for more than a few minutes. Eventually Doflamingo will be forced to recognize Luffy as the bigger threat, and that's when we'll get the personal development between them.

@Doffy.:
1. Not the first D so…......
2. Law has proven multiple times that he wasn't interested in Kaidou or anything . His main goal since the beginning was just to destory everything Doflamingo has build up and strawhats were part of that too so ..........
3. A treasure that only Doflamingo knows about so again..............1. Every single "D" that has not died yet have extremely important roles in the future of One Piece. All the dead ones held importance in the past and legacy.
2. One of the main agreement in the Straw Hat x Heart alliance was that they're gonna dethrone Kaidou. What you pointed out simply shows Law's priority is Doflamingo related first. The story is obviously going to conclude with Doflamingo defeated, and Law freed from his shackles of duty, and despite Law's insistence that the alliance has ended, Luffy continues to do his usual forcing his own view on him: namely, I'MMA BEFRIEND YOU AND YOU GOT NO SAY IN THIS. And as we all know, Luffy gets his way. Law will continue to play a significant role in the future outcome, whether present on screen or not. Although I bet the spotlight will move onto the likes of Kid and others.
3. Doflamingo and the World Government and all the Tenryubito, sure. It's gonna come up again, it's obviously an foreshadowing Oda left. And yes, so will Ancient Weapons and other mysteries. One of Oda's staple plotting trait is to tie in these kind of things.
Lastly, the biggest difference between Law and Vivi, is that Law is a pirate captain, a Supernova, active in the New World. He's not going to stay in Dressrosa as some prince.
The "Pirate alliance" has been a very, very, VERY major theme running through out the New World arcs. It has been stressed many times on importance of alliance, we've seen Kid also form his own, seen the example led by Whitebeard, etc. Luffy's making of pirate allies all over is another indication.
And as a Supernova, whose significance as Luffy's peers have been clearly spotlighted in importance, Law, and other prominent SN, are crucial plot elements leading to the climax. That is not something even remotely comparable to Vivi as far as near-future prospects goes. -

This is one of the reasons I believe Oda is setting a subversion with everyone so blantantly pinning their hopes on Luffy, in manner that has never happened before. If Luffy simply wins… man, that would be absolutly terrible.
And Fujitora... I don't even want to talk about Fujitora, man. He is the biggest let down in the history of the manga for me.

That lack of development is what bothers me. Mostly because there isn't much room left for it now, for all intents and purposes we are in the climax. Unless of course Oda goes mad, and we have another sixty chapters of this arc.
-
People! that Doffy D. guy is obviously iDoflamingo(I've always called/referred to him as iDiotflamingo for obvious reasons) if he's not, then he's his Kouhai and should be referred to as iDiotflamingo too, just like his Dai Senpai :P

Furthermore, Doflamingo has seen what Luffy is capable of, during Marineford, as with the help of multiple allies he reached the scaffold, freed Ace, nearly gotten away with his brother and unleashed CoC to the astonishment of his foes and friends alike. I mean, Doflamingo is a smart man, shouldn't he connect all the dots and recognize Luffy as the most dangerous foe from the start? Doflamingo has seen all those pirates in Marineford going out of their way to save this one man, while the same man's enemies represented mostly by Akainu went out of their way to ensure his death ignoring threats such as Blackbeard himself. In my humble opinion, Doflamingo's words from the previous chapters, regarding foes being crushed squarely because of their inability to take the Strawhat pirate seriously, do not reflect his actions and he would be wise to contemplate them, lest he suffer the same fate of those previous villains that faced this son of Dragon, this D holder, this Luffy.

Interesting fact: Underestimating one's own tasks and enemies, and overestimating one's own abilities?
A frequent sign of psychopathy.

Only Ussop has done anything remotely commendable. Like in some ways it makes sense that they're just fortifying their own position, but the freaking king is there doing nothing.
Sitting on his ass = protecting the real king of the country and his citizens while his subordinates subdue the pirates and civilians in the war zone, you wouldn't want Jesus making wine on that plateau would you?

Furthermore, Doflamingo has seen what Luffy is capable of, during Marineford, as with the help of multiple allies he reached the scaffold, freed Ace, nearly gotten away with his brother and unleashed CoC to the astonishment of his foes and friends alike. I mean, Doflamingo is a smart man, shouldn't he connect all the dots and recognize Luffy as the most dangerous foe from the start? Doflamingo has seen all those pirates in Marineford going out of their way to save this one man, while the same man's enemies represented mostly by Akainu went out of their way to ensure his death ignoring threats such as Blackbeard himself. In my humble opinion, Doflamingo's words from the previous chapters, regarding foes being crushed squarely because of their inability to take the Strawhat pirate seriously, do not reflect his actions and he would be wise to contemplate them, lest he suffer the same fate of those previous villains that faced this son of Dragon, this D holder, this Luffy.
Which he has acknowledge. Dofla is so full of shit that he thinks that everybody is below him due to his Tenryu status and how he have all those business going on, so I don't find it strange that he sees Luffy as a runt with a great power (make allies).

But that is not the motivation Fujitora gives for not doing anything.
For that matter, you will forgive me for not believing that he can't protect those people in movement, while helping citizens around the country.
