I wonder if the old curse of shounen is going to haunt this battle as well. As long as it's only a few persons fighting, it's varied and characters use individual styles and techniques (and powers), but if it's a bigger group, it's just going to be running and mindlessly withing with fists, swords or guns. It looked a bit like that already but I hope they will really concentrate of individuals and give them time to be themselves, if that's appropriate in this war.

I hope Luffy manages to get there anywhere soon - if only to see how Hancock would react to seeing him.
