All true. (This chapter wasn't as good as the last one, but it got the other groups' progress up to date, so I suppose this sort of chapter was inevitable at this point.)

1- That toy soldier seems suspicious.

2- Navy and CP-0 there already, man I gotta say, while I along with most others despise Akainu... you gotta admit, he moves FAST! Doflamingo resigned less than 24 hours earlier and he already has an admiral, vice admiral, CP-0 and probably all sorts of other forces mobilized in Dressrosa. (Though Im sure he probably had many of them already there.)

3- Ouch

4 and 5- Invisible or tiny, but both have been done before in terms of devil fruit abilities...so maybe...

6- Can't say the same about his crew it seems.

7- Till she stabs him too...

All in all, I was not happy with this chapter because it was sort of a continuation of the previous chapter (as a setup chapter) but unlike the previous one, this one's revelations and events were significantly downplayed... each of the groups only had a few pages to get something said or done, and all the new faces or revelations of old ones were gone through quickly. As I said, this chapter was sort of expected. It got its job done, now hopefully the next one will be more about the tournament rounds OR focus on the groups a bit more, but not all at once.
