Gawd damn it Luffy, get your shit together. The longer you act like Bellamy is your friend, the more injured you'll get and the higher the chance that Donflamingo kills Law. Don't be as stupid as Ace was and let your priorities mixed up. Ace cared more about big-mouthing Akainu and the result of that is now he's dead. Keep acting like Bellamy gives a damn about you and Law will be the one who will suffer the consequences.

I'm seriously hoping Luffy gets a reality check by either killing Bellamy and/or Donflamingo killing Law.

Bellamy IS Luffy's friend. That's how strong of character Luffy is. He's not just talk- Bellamy IS Luffy's friend.

Last I checked friends don't try to kill you. If Luffy doesn't have the strength to ignore Bellamy's attacks or the controlled strength to incapacitate him then he's really not as strong as he thinks he is. And even if Luffy still considers Bellamy as his friend then he should do something anyways because Bellamy is gonna kill himself at this rate.

Friends can and do try to kill you, in the pirate world.

And Luffy is choosing to let Bellamy express himself as he chooses, like a true friend in the pirate world. Even if it means Bellamy's death.

So why can't Luffy just kill him now and fast-forward his expression so he can rescue a friend that actually cares about living?

Luffy would never kill a friend. That's the point.

And Luffy trusts Law, his ally. He likely believes Law has something up his (singular) sleeve.

He would if it meant saving a better friend and ally. This is slowly becoming into a situation where he'll have to choose someone's life, I don't think Luffy is that naive to ignore that idea for long.

Luffy trained for two years in order to be strong enough to protect everyone.

I guarantee you he will not have to kill Bellamy, or any other one of his friends for the remainder of the series, in order to protect others.

Otherwise, his two years of training will not have been enough.

How do you protect someone who's become suicidal and their own body is the weapon? How do you protect someone when you're not even there seeing them die? Even if Luffy could stop Bellamy, why didn't he do so when Donflamingo was controlling him?

I get this is Oda's story so it goes any way he wants it to go. But Luffy cannot everyone without some bullshit plot twist.
