It was last chapter that Kelly Funk set up Luffy for DD.
That was the joke.

In mangareader's translation it's:
a "blank town"
The 'a' and quotations lead me to believe it's just a way of referring to a specific kind of town. Maybe it's like the gray terminal nearby where luffy and them grew up.

Which is a huge difference in the two scenario's and something Luffy would NEVER ask a friend to do(Though many would and have been willing).

DD was pretty upset about asking monet to kill herself and Vergo. He stated that he feels the higher ups in his crew are family. Monet was more than happy to kill herself even without speaking to him.
Luffy wouldn't want it but DD is in far deeper than Luffy will ever be. When bad stuff happens you gotta be able to rely on your underlings to be able to do that sort of thing. Zoro and Sanji showed they were willing to die for Luffy even without him asking so it ain't really a stretch to think other crews wouldn't do the same.

Yeah, I think Oda is trying to highlight some of the parallelisms here between luffy and doffy. They have the same goal, and they seem to view their crew (or their immediate crew in doffy's case) like family. The only real difference is in how they view the rest of the world.

Being willing to die for your captain/crew isn't the same thing as ordering your crew to die.

I don't think anyone trying to show the similarities between The strawhats and mingo's crew are trying to suggest that mingo is an angel. But that does not mean there are not similarities.
|
I wouldn't mind reading a doflamingo - early days spin off. Back when he was a rising star, still gathering his crew. Too bad Oda will never make it. Best we could get is a movie.

Luffy would rather take a risk where everyone could die or everyone could live even if it's a slim chance rather than someone is guaranteed to die, but everyone else lives. Luffy didn't know about there being two choices, but he risked his whole crew by taking the Knock Up Stream when apparently there were safer routes, but someone is probably going to die. http://mangawall.com/manga/one-piece/238/15
