I have been waiting for someone to hit that jerk Charlos and Luffy did it in the best way possible. That black and white animation made the impact feel so heavy and it was totally deserved

Luffy punching that celestial dragon was the most insane thing and the way the color drained from the screen was just perfect. He did not even hesitate after Hachi got shot

Luffy hitting that celestial dragon was the best thing ever and the way the rest of the crew just started fighting with him made me so happy because they have his back no matter what

The auction house fight was chaotic in the best way and seeing the three captains stand together at the end made the whole arc feel so much more dangerous

Watching Charlos get his face caved in was so satisfying after how he treated Camie and the other slaves, and seeing the crew jump in to back their captain up without a second thought was even better, and I think that having Law and Kid getting involved makes the whole situation feel way bigger than just one crew

You have to respect how Law and Kid just sat there smiling while Luffy turned the whole auction house into a war zone against the world government

Seeing Luffy smack that world noble was my highlight because I really wanted that guy to pay for what he did to Hachi

I still cant believe Luffy actually punched that noble in the face and seeing Kid and Law just watching from the sidelines was such a cool way to see their reaction

Rayleigh showing up to save Camie was a total game changer, and that power he used to knock everyone out is making everyone really curious about Gol Rogers old crew

Everything went south so fast once Hachi got shot but Luffy handled it the only way he knows how and now the marines are bringing an admiral to the island

Charlos deserved every bit of that punch and it is honestly the most rewarding thing to happen in this arc so far even if it means the crew is doomed

When Luffy finally connected that punch, I felt this huge surge of satisfaction, like seriously, that celestial dragon had it coming for so long. I was just waiting for someone to knock him down a peg, and Luffy delivered perfectly.

Law and Kid looking totally shocked at what happened makes you realize how insane the Straw Hats actually are and nobody else would ever dare to touch a World Noble

Rayleigh taking off that collar without it exploding blew my mind and I have so many questions about what kind of power he is actually using to do that

I felt a massive weight lift when Luffy walked up those stairs and punched that Celestial Dragon right in his stupid face. It was the most satisfying thing after seeing how they treated Hachi and Camie, but now I am also terrified because an Admiral is coming. Each member of the crew just stood their ground and got ready to fight, which was so emotional

Those guards just dropping unconscious when Rayleigh used that Haki thing was wild and the atmosphere in that auction house changed so fast from dark to total chaos

The rest of the crew didn't even hesitate to draw their weapons, showing that they value their friendship over their own safety against the World Government's biggest threats

Everyone in the crowd was panicking but Zoro and the others were just ready for a massive brawl and things are going to get extremely messy with an Admiral on the way

The whole room went dead silent when Charlos hit the ground and you just know a massive war is starting now that the Navy is involved

I could not believe how cool Rayleigh looked when he just walked out and knocked everyone flat with that weird pressure and he is definitely way more than some old man

EPISODE CONTEXT

Sitting deep within the Sabaody Archipelago arc, Episode 397 is a direct escalation from the auction house tensions that erupted in the previous episode, pushing the crew past the point of no return. This is a pivotal turning point where the Straw Hats' actions carry enormous weight, drawing attention from forces far more powerful than anything they've faced on this island. The fallout from this episode feeds directly into subsequent installments that dramatically reshape the crew's situation on Sabaody.
