Okay, thanks 
Ah, in the end it's just misleading, right? I think what you feel is what I feel too. I get it, sir, I get it. Anyway, check my EDIT, please? I've added some Qs there.
Oh yes, Chatte, before I forgot again, if you decided one day to check one of gundam series, try Gundam Wing for it's plot. 
Well I don't know the chapter numbers, so yeah. Lol. Sorry. As for anime, it's Toei. They do like to make sure that the series is forever alive. Not necessarily means they will change the story, but they don't want breaks. That's about it. They're decent.
I got to say, the villains in there really makes you hate them so badly in different ways. One would be too cocky for his own rights with his cocky tone of voice like you want someone to freaking hit him. It's always satisfying when the hit actually happened, because Oda builds up the moment. I remember one normal non-fighter bad guy was just a prick in many ways, when Luffy did the unthinkable, I freaking yelled yes.
