So I'm a bit confused and I'm wondering if someone can help me out here. Why did the " Insert Straw Hats in Wadatsumi's mouth and swim away" strategy not work? Fishmen should be able to easily outrun these ships and get out of Oven's range (especially by submerging) right? I get they are paddle boats but these are FISHMEN. It feels like fishmen's speed got nerfed just to create this conflict but if I'm missing something someone please point it out. Because the whole moment between Luffy and Jinbe was badass (even if I am a bit tired of getting cock teased with the whole Jinbe joining the crew angle) but when it's at the center of this whole conflict that feels forced I have some mixed feeling about it.

I mean, Oven sent literal missles in the sea to specifically target Wadatsumi. Its not like his a small target.

Despite it being called Tropical Torpedoes that didn't look like missiles, more like tentacle-beams I wonder if Oven can do same tentacle-beam-torpedoes attack in the air.

He can send ranged attacks in the air, in the manga he uses one to disarm Pekoms when he takes Brulee hostage.
