You know, one thing people have always griped about is why the fuck the marines don't just excute all these terrible criminals instead of locking them up. MAYBE it's cause most of these criminals have dangerous and fuck DFs. If you kill them and the DF gets out, it's potentially another criminal taking up arms with the said DF. But if you keep them locked up for life (hopefully with no idiots breaking them out) than you essentially remove this dangerous power from the world for a good number of years until the person dies naturally.

I'm really hoping that's the rationale, which makes be absolutely hate the idea that stealing a DF power is as simple as having a fruit nearby when you kill the previous user. Seriously if it were that straightforward, why the fuck have people not been doing this all the time that you need the BB crew to start this trend. If it were that straight forward, the Marines should be doing the exact opposite, and executing all the criminals they catch so they can harvest the fruits for the Marine's own strength.

I'm really hoping it's a super secret method that BB discovered and has kept it well hidden.

In hindsight though, if they had this rationale behind their thoughts, they were really dumb as fuck for executing Ace.
