I did... It's just that I don't expect them to insta transmission their ass on the platform and be able to stop him uncuffing Ace. If they would stopped him, it would've been before he got to the platform. Now he only has to deal with the final line up which are Sengoku and Garp. Even WB's line of the will of D, suggests we're reaching the final.
And why would any marine high tail their ass over there when it's only a promosing rookie and (probably) the two strongest marines are on the job who they expect to totally outmatch Luffy. Let alone the shichibukai who are their just so they don't lose their title. No need for them to go out of their way to stop him.
And it seems to me they all got their hands full with doing what they're doing, seeing that the WB pirates aren't even breaching the line of defense more which this chapter showed they were succeeding awefully good in seeing they got Luffy close enough to have Inazuma create a path to the platform.

After all, those guys are the strongest soldiers in the marines after the admirals (with the exception of Garp, of course), so I think those guys deserve their fair share of screentime, as well...... |
Don't get me wrong, so do I. If the serie left me dissapointed in one thing only it's the poor use of the VAs. I was hoping we could get an estimate of the strength of an average VA this war but it seems to me that Oda just gave them a poor treatment like always. And now their turn seems to be passed and I just think, well of to the bigger and better things then.
Guess I have to hope that he'll still use them over the couple of years (hopefully decades :P, pls let OP run for like 15 years still).

I was majorly impressed bye him till he got haxxed. Slapping those seacuffs on him just shows how scared they are of him imo. That's like the biggest cheat you can imagine to defeat him. And even then he's still running around doing his best. I did expect even more of him and I hope he will show more (if?) when he gets rid of his cuffs.
