Oda has to speed up, he knows very well that finishing One Piece is his crucial goal rn given of how many breaks he needs, that number wont goes down only goes up.
The moment Kuma saw Sanji prepared to kill himself to subs Zoro, Kuma already knew Sanji issue and Kamabaka is the best place for Sanji, the guru guru boy.
Seems he does know, this chapter we can see him hit Killingham right on his chest, I hope Sanji flame can melt the iron heart.
Robin probably doesnt know that chest might contain something that can affect the battle, Bilbo just said like "open the goddamn chest"
The death of Imus 2 knights will weaken him greatly. We already saw him suffered from the death of Harald. This will be Luffy and Loki chance to deal a final blow.
At this point Usopp will land a final hit (whatever he throws) the exact moment Imu running out of time. Tontata already worship him with a statue now its Elbafs turn. To the smallest race and the biggest race in the world, Usopps known as their god.
