Why this matters

It loads a Bellamy-vs-Luffy collision and a loyalty-vs-conscience crisis for Bellamy: his craving for Doflamingo’s approval (see Bellamy Do Not Dream New Age Of Pirates Doctrine and his Mock-Town “second chance” arc) is turned into a loyalty test against the very man who beat him. Pairs with the dream-mocker’s hubris arc and Doflamingo’s pattern of testing his subordinates.
