She was the only one who could do that, but stopping the stupid two and Caesar could have been handled by other people more smoothly and with less effort. I can't help but wonder if they even tried to escape in the manga or if that was anime original content.
Yeah, definitely way too many shots of people freaking out in the transport cart, Nami awkwardly gathering up courage from her promise to the children just so she can point her rod forward and blow wind out of it, and Baby 5 killing time with her silly weapons when even her main transformations weren't working. I suppose that's understandable, considering how close the anime is catching up to the manga. The Usopp/Nami wombo combo, however, is canon, though I see it as more of a comical climax to the "capture ceasar" mission.

But hey, how about that Doflamingo, eh? All, flying through the air like a badass. And then you got the shadowy figure riding on a giant penguin, I mean, c'mon!
