I'm sorry but I'm just not feeling the tension of Luffy's situation.

- We all know that Kaido wants Luffy to fight for him, so there's no way he's gonna actually do something that would permanently impair his ability in combat, let alone kill him. If that somehow falls short, there's always good ol' plot armor. I'm totally down for Luffy sustaining an injury this arc that will carry through to the end of the series, but I seriously doubt he'll get one from beating up some nobodies.

- Hyougoro was revealed this chapter as someone who could immediately gather an incredible amount of supporters for the Alliance, so we also know that he's relatively safe.

- Queen stated he has an "Idea", which I'm certainly willing to bet means he has some alternate form of punishment that will likely be as cruel, but definitely not as graphic as removing limbs. Likely just some kind of torture device, where Hyou will try to sacrifice himself in Luffy's stead.

- On top of Raizo successfully stealing the keys, Luffy now has the ultimate contingency plan for his escape in the swiftly approaching Big Mom.

There's definitely other things I'm super excited and anxious for, like Orochi's forces eventually catching up to O-Toko and maybe fighting the Straw Hats again, and the Flying Six's eventual arrival in Ebisu Town, but Luffy's prison storyline just isn't doing it for anymore, especially now that Kid is gone.
