Why you do you have to randomly start hating on DBZ and people who read this manga?
Everybody is entitled to their opinion.

actually I love DBZ I've loved it since I was a kid seeing how I grew up with it but you can't deny that it has pretty much no story

so no I didn't start randomly hating on DBZ it just so happens that it is the best example of a manga which is liked for its battles

Well these past 2 arcs have just been there to show that Luffy has become much stronger and to build up Doflamingo. If he's going against Doflamingo this arc he must go all out. He's not too strong.

I don't think he's to strong at all...why because he's winning fights? Do you expect him to lose every fight before winning for god sake he actually lost to Caesar the first time they fought.

There are still many more extremely challenging opponents Luffy is going to have to defeat...Supernova, Emperors, Warlords, admirals, Gorosei and many more. Don't cry just because Luffy won a fight without losing once. It would be a disgrace if Luffy lost here when there's a chance he'll go all out as it will show he's exactly where he was 2 years ago...unable to protect his nakama.

I hope Luffy and Doflamingo have a full on 1 on 1 with Luffy winning but only just pulling out a win...I mean like his battle with Lucci.

Well, you can see it getting harder to be honest. I don't think he is too strong for where he is at now. Remember there are loads more other islands in the New World they need to go to and a LOT more stronger enemies they will encounter. Luffy is struggling enough against Don Chinjao even with Haki.

If he was struggling more then that then that 2 years training would have been for NOTHING. Let alone go onto to take on a Emperor of course he as to be strong. Luffy wasn't exactly weak when he entered the grandline either, he didn't struggle much against other pirates until probably Arlong or Crocodile and that was well into it.

Don Chinjao has proved himself already if people like him are the regular in the New World with Haki and all. You never saw that in the grand line. If you drop it if he beats Jesus that's just pathetic, you're too impatient you may as well drop it now and pick up a new manga before this irritates to further.

It's the second island in the NW. He trained for two years with a legend. And within 2-3 arcs after this one, he's going up against a Yonko. His current strength makes completely sense to me. Besides, he hasn't taken down Chinjao yet. If you look at that punch, Chinjao used Haki to defend himself. And what's wrong with Luffy taking down Burgess? He's obviously strong, but do you really think he's at the top in Blackbeard's crew? He's probably in the middle, behind guys like Shilliew, Sanjuan Wolf and 1-2 others.

I agree with you. However isnt Burgess the second fleet commander of BB pirates? Wouldn't that make him really strong?
But obviously not the strongest. Definitely Shilliew is stronger in my opinion.

It was said he was the first, but we know that doesn't have to mean he's the strongest. Oda said it himself that the numbers of the commanders in Whitebeard's crew didn't necessarily mean that the 1st was stronger than the 2nd and so on. They are just positions.

Trust me... Luffy... and the Strawhats... will get ****** up, and it's going to be priceless. Tbh when the Strawhats come up against real strong opponents such as Enel, Kuma, etc. that is when I get that tingly feeling that roars deep inside of me... this manga is ******** epic!!!

Luffy might/will shit on Burgess. Shit gets real when he goes up against Doflamingo.

Your pretty much expecting Luffy to train for 2 years and get shitted on by the first guy he encounters.

If he wasn't atleast this strong at this point in the story, wouldn't make sense for him to take on yonkos soon

Luffy is definitely strong, but there are plenty stronger than him in the NW. But compared to other main characters of different mangas he is weaker, like Naruto. Naruto is waaay stronger than Luffy.
