I still think this version of Monster Point feels so much more dangerous than how it looks later on because he is genuinely a threat to everyone around him, including his own crew. Watching him just roar and demolish everything in sight makes you realize how desperate he was to win this fight for Robin even if it meant becoming a monster.
