Decent chapter.

The Sanji side-story has thrown me for a loop. Obviously it will tie in somehow to something, but I have little idea where and how (which isn't a bad thing).

Luffy joining the tournament is a little odd (I'm still unclear why he wants the fruit, and a memento seems like a really weak excuse), especially if he has to do it while never using his Gomu powers (since he is undercover). Still it could be an interesting restriction that could aid in the tension of the fights...or Oda could simply side to screw deception and have Luffy reveal himself immediately.

I also liked the brief mention that marines and police were not allowed in the Colosseum. Sadly the one-legged toy that gave us this info has now joined the ranks of fodder discussed as possible crewmates...
