Law vs Doflamingo and Fujitora!

One Piece Manga Chapter 713 Review

Rating: 4.5/5

This chapter starts off with a battle between Law, Doflamingo and Fujitora. It was an awesome battle and it showed powers of both Doflamingo and Fujitora. They give us a hint as well for the second Admiral who joined as Doflamingo says "I've heard you and "Green Bull" are true beasts in terms of power". This hints that Green Bull is also appointed as the new Admiral as we need to replace Aokiji and Akainu. 

Now, after this conversation between Doflamingo and Fujitora, we see the new Admiral talking to Law and asking what his relation to the Strawhats is; is it an alliance or are they his subordinates? It's interesting how Law answers that it is an alliance even though Fujitora said that if they are his subordinates then he would take no action. Law answered that its an alliance but I don't see the point in doing that as now he has both Doflamingo and Fujitora fighting him. His thinking was that he would buy some time so I think he said that so that he would face off with both of them and give the others more time to find the factory and destroy it. But there is a reverse side as well since after this fight, which I can see Law losing, Fujitora will hunt down the Strawhats. 

Then the fight starts! What an amazing fight it is! We see Fujitora's powers as he brings down a meteorite. Yes, a frigging meteorite!I think the new Admiral has eaten the Galaxy Galaxy fruit or Meteor Meteor fruit or he could be a swordsman from the Wano conutry as they seem to have awesome powers as well. But we see Doflamingo cut it in many pieces using his powers. We get an little insight on that as well as Doflamingo cuts the meteorite with his invisible strings. This would show how he also cut Junior Oz's leg in the war. After that, the scene of them standing on their footholds only was epic. It showed how each of them is strong enough to hold their own, even when there's a massive meteor coming down on them. 

Maybe I'm over-thinking this but Doflamingo called Fujitora a stray mutt. That is quite insulting but Fujitora doesn't react. So I was thinking that he didn't say anything because Doflamingo holds a higher status than just a Shichibukai. 

Then we see Franky and how he has probably found the factory. He is talking to Sanji and Sanji is with Violet.  They see a video of Luffy fighting in the Colosseum. Violet gives Sanji a map of the factory and she gives him a description of the factory and how it looks like a toy house. I think this is the last we see of Violet. I don't see her meeting up with the rest of the Strawhats on the rendezvous point. Even though I don't want it to happen since I like the character of Violet but I think she won't make it to the rendezvous point. She will either die or be captured an bloodied and I can see Sanji being extremely depressed for a few months. It would be awesome if Zoro tries to cheer him up. 

We see Kinemon being chased by some people. He says that his friend is in the "toy house" and that he needs Sanji's help to get in. I think we all know that it is the factory as we saw Violet give a little description before.

Then we see a classic Ussop. He lied about the vibrations they felt from the fighting outside. He said it was his Haki and he has also said that he used it on Fishman Island to defeat 50000 people. That was quite funny and I liked it as it gave a comical side to the chapter. Then we see how Usopp lied to the dwarves. He said he is a descendant of Norland; coincidentally the dwarves see Norland as their hero as he helped the dwarves win a battle 400 years ago. 

We also see the plans made by the dwarves to defeat Doflamingo and ask Usopp to command their ranks. They are also going to the "toy house". I think this is going to end very badly. 

Finally, I give this chapter 4.5/5 because it was really good and we finally see some fighting. I think this arc is moving on to its final stages and I cant wait to see how it ends. Also, I think Oda needs to finish the blocks in the Colosseum because it's getting boring now.
