@batman08:
I think the most accurate assumption about the fate of Trafalgar D. Water Law' is this:

Is this supposed to be an anagram?
Personally I liked the first and the last page the most. It's nice to see a little bit of Zoro's training and even nicer to know Mihawk "punished" him by banning alcohol. Alcoholic beverages are as important to Zoro as meat is to Luffy. Other than that I think the bottom part of the statue standing there all alone looks kinda weird and it doesn't help that those pants look like undergarment to me.
As for Manshelly, since no further explanation is given of what her limit is, I hope she'll be close to reaching said limit before the fight against Doflamigo ends thus putting both parties (Luffy and Doffy) under more pressure. Talking about fighting, has anybody any clue what that "bash" on top of the palace could have been? It looked like some weird explosion or part of an attack. Whatever.
In my opinion, who or whatever made Koala hiding is neither Doflamingo nor Trebol but somebody else. Both men are currently on top of the palace while she is inside a nearby tower, so they won't notice her anyway. The same could also be said the other way around. Koala is too far away to witness anything taking place on the top floor.
I can't come up with anyone but Burgess, mostly because there isn't any other person on the island who would be an good opponent for Sabo. The whole story with Ace gives the latter also a realistic reason to be concerned about Luffy's safety.
Honestly I just really hope Trebol is not used to hype Sabo for numerous reasons. Imo it would look like Luffy needs a babysitter. Otherwise, he had already quite some screentime inside the Coloseum and (more or less) against Fujitora, so letting him fight and win against Trebol with ease would be kinda out of place. Last but not least, it would feel like wasted potential to me. A Logia vs Logia fight doesn't seem to do justice to what Trebol may be abel to do combat wise.
I hated and liked the end of Luffy vs Bellamy. The fact Luffy punched him even harder (using Haki) than back in Jaya is what I dispise. Seriosly, at first Luffy spends weeks not fighting back so he doesn't end up killing a friend and now he knocks him out anyway. Where there honestly no better ways to end this? I have the strange feeling whatever happened to Law will Luffy make even more angry than he already is, thus taking away part of the impact the whole dilemna around Bellamy made.
What I liked about the fight were the way it was told. After the spoilers, I was surprised to see an unconscious Bellamy first and the fight afterwards. This, and the fact that Oda used panels which looked simular to the ones in vol. 25, may underline that despite the outcome being the same, the situations in both situation were reverse.
I loved the last panel being pitch black and the atmosphere it creates in combination with Doflamingo's words. It makes me wonder if he did even worse things to Law than just cutting his arm of, like giving his remaining limbs the same treatment or finally pulling the trigger.
