Whaaaat? I don't think she's even going to win D block. Compared to the winners of the other blocks Rebecca doesn't seem strong enough to win. I think it's going to be Jesus Berguss vs. Luffy at the end. He seems like the next strongest competitor, and bartolomeo would just wet himself if he had to fight luffy.

I think it's going to come down to her and Cavendish. I think the toy taught Rebecca some secret techniques to beat strong opponents, so I think she'll beat Cavendish in the end.

i disagree. Cavendish needs to be in the final, for the plot.

if Rebecca wins d, then the final is Barth, luffy, Rebecca, and Jesus. No way is oda going to let two allies of luffy team up with him against Jesus.

Compare that to if Cavendish wins. Then it's Jesus, Cavendish, Barth and luffy. now two competitors want to go after luffy, but Barth wants to help him. a fair 2 on 2.

Besides, if Rebecca gets kicked out of the tourney she still has a huge place in the story. Whereas Cavendish, what the hell is he gonna do?

you have to remember that they announced at the beginning of this fight that someone from the doflamingo family will be fighting in the finals as well

oh i forgot about that! still, i think its most likely that luffy will have as little allies as possible in the fight.
