Seeing Law get defeated so easily by a guy with a piece of meat stuck on his face was not on my cards. Looks like the strawhats have got another powerful ally in Kinemon.

Sanji really surprised me using his Haki to find that torso in the shark, I guess all that training paid off more than I thought. But seriously, Kinemon just slicing through an actual explosion with fire? My jaw dropped, that man's powers are even stranger than I initially imagined.

Kin'emon being fully reassembled was such a relief, I was honestly wondering if he'd ever get all his pieces back! His Foxfire Style is so sick, cutting fire is definitely one of the weirder but coolest swordsman powers I've seen in a while, I bet it'll come in super handy against some devil fruit users.
