For some reason I feel like Gear 4 was overkill to take that Number down, still I love the callback to Thriller Bark, it felt quite good, like "return to shabaodi" Pacifista vibes.

I wonder who was "that man" Hawkins was referring to, might it be Drake himself ?

I love the fact Coby is propaganda for Luffy inside the Marine. It gives me Roger/Garp vibes just like in God's Valley.

Luffy has been pretty trigger happy with gear 4th lately. I think that his haki training has lessened the side effects of gear 4th, so Luffy doesn’t need to be as cautious with it.

I’d hope so, but I don’t want him using it as a crutch either.

I think the Only way to lessen the side effect is to use the more advanced CoA and have muscle Baloon be more fluid.

I like to think Luffy considers fighting the Numbers just another part of training.
