dressrosa really is the best arc........it really just is.......
#i read up to dof lowering the birdcage#there's just Something about dof listing all the reasons why the strawhats won't be able to win#and at the same time showing that they're all invalid because the mugiwaras are doing exactly every single thing he thought they wouldn't#then he's like “how did you know about the tontatta and sugar? talk! it's impossible that you formed a convenient alliance on the spot!”#when not only that's exactly what happened but#it happened four? times over in the span of a few minutes#even if robin and usopp hadn't met the tontatta and made up the noland lie#zoro would have met wicca and if zoro hadn't met wicca#franky would have met kyros and if franky hadn't met kyros#sanji would have met viola!#they formed FOUR convenient alliances that would have brought them to the tontatta on the spot#and the best thing is that this happens right after dof says i need to deal with the strawhats bc#too many underestimated them and were burned for it#he says!! and right after he defeats law and law's like didn't you say you wouldn't underestimate them#he REMINDS HIM#but dof proceeds to do just that anyway cause he's not underestimating their strength#and he's right in doing so they ARE strong#but what he doesn't understand is that what he needs to take seriously is their /luck/#they're Always in the right place at the right time and this has been acknowledged on paper in the past already#they're lucky! luck is on their side! on jaya luffy managed to pick the only not poisoned apple on the spot he's LUCKY#and he uses that luck combined with his natural kindness to make allies wherever he goes#but dof only prepares for their undeniable strength and thats why he loses despite being the one taking them the most seriously up until now#and that's also why law wins#because despite grumbling and huffing and trying to push them away and out of harm's way#he has unshakable faith in their ability to make miracles happen#he never tries to sell them and keeps on buying them time for as long as he can because he Knows they'll find a way to win#and he outright says so! dof laughs at him for believing in luffy so much and he doesn't shake even for a minute!#bro I'm insane about dressrosa i truly am#insane about dressrosa AND about law's kindness and love and care for and trust and faith in his “convenient allies”#straight up he gave them the zoo vivre card cause he knew they'd take care of his crew for him if he never made it i just KNOW
