^So you're saying that you see Smiley as a pokemon?
Personally, if CC's beast HAS to be taken down, I still feel it's most likely that Kinemon will be the one to finish the job, or maybe even Brooke. I just don't think that a more "orthodox" form of swordsmanship will be good enough to take down a creature like Smiley (what with him being made of poison gas and all).....
And speaking of strange creatures, I don't think anyone has commented on the SECOND dragon of Vegapunk's we've seen now? This makes me wonder exactly how many other artificial dragons may be lurking on the island. After all, the first dragon we saw is no more since the beast was killed (and later eaten) by Luffy's group. So if this other one bites it, will that mean the Straw-Hats will have driven the Punk Hazard dragons to extinction.....?
