I don't like the situation either - Kyros is pretty much trying to make his daughter into Princess Peach! No offense to the frequently-kidnapped princess!

Still, Kyros's anger has reached it's limit with Diamante, and the true hero of the colosseum is about to make his move on this flag-man faker! But can a man with only one leg hope to beat his devil-fruit using enemy on unstable ground?

I would like if Kyros and Rebecca would beat Diamante together because I think both of them need their revenge - not just another. It really is pretty bad for one-legged soldier to fight on unstable ground. Maybe I would like the situation in which Rebecca would run past Robin and save his daddy, who probably would have lost his balance after getting a bad hit from Diamante, and show to her hyper-over-protective papa that she can fight too. And Diamante would be like 'Whuuut?'.

It is quite controversial that first Kyros taught Rebecca to fight/defend herself, and then he doesn't let her do that after he is back in human form. Maybe I understand at some level that Kyros want to protect his daughter but still...
I don't like Rebecca turning such a crybaby. I understood and forgave that at Corrida Colosseum, but when she encountered Diamante at Flower Hill later, and just runs away and don't even try to fight and screaming his daddy for help, I didn't like that.
It irritates me that first Oda introduces us a female character, who is said to be "Undefeated Woman" and is quite strong and who declares she will protect the one most dear to her, and then the author puts her be saved by that said person. I have been in hope that this kind of storytelling will lead us to Becca's star moment, but we will see that. If Rebecca doesn't do anything and just stand there and watch behind Robin and doesn't achieve anything meaningful to her character during the arc, that will be very sloppy writing from Oda, and frankly I will be very disappointed of the author if that happens.

And putting Robin (at least from my point view) without any hints beforehand being worried about Rebecca's safety and then protect her from Diamante (being her personal guard and preventing her to fight) for Kyros, I don't take it. It feels like Oda would make that way Rebecca's becoming a side character against the battle of her mom's murderer and and damsel in distress more acceptable to female readers. Blöeh.

In other words, it's like what happened with Samus Aran in Metriod: Other M!

Rebecca = Samus, and Dimante = Ridley! >_<
