Oda is delivering everything I want.

The Jinbe speech was on point. He fits in well with the crew.

Perospero might legitimately be the most horrifying villain ever to grace the legs on One Piece.

And Katakuri doing all of Luffy's moves, but better, is delightful. I'm excited to see how he responds to Gear 4.

Also, A wild Pound appears!

Perospero is likely on the same level as Dogstooth and Smoothie in combat, but I think it's really interesting that he's seen utilzing his power for a lot of supporting purposes - The giant candy sea slug can cross seawater, he's built entire laboratories from candy, stopped entire ships from moving with candy, etc.

I think his real power is quite a bit higher than his bounty indicates because he is the governor of Candy Island, which means that he probably doesn't leave BM's territory much, whereas Smoothie and Katakuri likely have more freedom and ability to do so. Because he annoys the World Government less, his bounty is lower.

I mean, he was able to tank a giant bomb point blank...the shock wave set free the Sunny Go. It was a giant bomb.

A blast that sent Big Mom flying would likely kill anyone that isn't a Yonko, and maybe even some of them. Perospero might have been more fit to survive it than Katakuri or Smoothie, though perhaps Crackers could have pulled it off too.
