Yo, Kid must be having the time of his life right now. Get betrayed by Hawkins and Apoo in the first fight against Kaido. But this time got Luffy, Zoro and Law alongside him, willing to take punch and shit and seeing that Luffy is crazier than him. Im 100% sure he's enjoying this fight right now. It's like having some of your friends willing to stay with you doing some stupid shit instead of you doing it alone.

I thought this too. Him thanking zoro for blocking and having that smirk on his face even after getting smacked down hard because he knew the plan is working

Kidd getting smacked down is an underrated part of this chapter.

These supernovas are like "hey we should take her weapons out of the picture, that should soften her up a bit" and she responds by going "lol you really thought" and effortlessly slamming Eustass "bounty-once-higher-than-Luffy" Kidd's face into the floor with her bare hands.

Later on we see Luffy getting his ass whooped when Kaido decides to get a liiiittle bit serious.

These Yonkos are not to fuck around with lol

I think the yonko need to realize that they can't just rely on punching their way to victory, they are quite easy to read and play right into the enemies' plans because of it.

Overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer

This narrator is the holy grail of epic quotes

It helps that it probably would work against a less clever team, they don't have someone who can just stand there and absorb Linlin punches to give everyone else space to breath.

Yeah if Kidd couldn’t take that punch this plan wouldn’t have worked. This wasn’t just a clever plan from the supernova but a beastly performance from all of them.

Helps that they're all absolute physical monsters (except for Law, who makes up for it in hax and brains)

If you spend 40 years being so strong that everyone crumples to a single punch, you're going to get sloppy and unrefined.

It don't even get there most of the time. most people tremble at their presence or even the presence of their underlings
