Speaking of Vegapunk, Oda doesn't waste time during this final saga by finally delving into Vegapunk, who has been one of the longest built up names to go without a face reveal. Though this introduction of who is "supposedly Vegapunk" gives me deja vu of Yamato. Considering Vegapunk has been referred to as male, and even an old man in the past, for them to show up resembling a young girl tells me there's some catch. Either this is some invention pretending to be Vegapunk for security reasons, or it's Vegapunk experimenting with mind swaps, or whatever. The possibilities are endless with him.
Captain Glasses finally returns! And she is still looking after the Punk Hazard children. I love that she's still staying true to her words to Nami of looking after them. Doubly so, she is also worried about Coby just like his partner Helmeppo. This piece was just a request, but now I like to think Tashigi did help to instruct the two during the two year timeskip. Captain Glasses and Coby share idealistic views on Justice, and they represent a brighter future for the military.

I would not mind seeing a scene with the kids happily reuniting with their parents with our navigator watching in the shadows. I would love Nami saying that Tashigi is a woman of her word, and tease Zoro that the Captain is a lot like him.
I hope this is actually setting up Luffy teaming with Smoker + G-14, and Sword to defeat Blackbeard (the new Rocks) like Garp and Roger before them. On PH, Smoker showed that like Luffy he is very protective of his men so I don't think he would hesitate to rescue the Captain. I can picture them being the main roster. One Piece started with Luffy rescuing Koby so I guess its poetic that its gonna end the same way. Koby represents the influence he has on people, and the readers. I would not mind seeing Helmeppo begging to Luffy and Zoro to help him rescue his friend, and acknowledging his existence, and progress as a person. It would be a heartwarming scene that started in comedic fashion on W7 circling back.

I wonder why he would've thought that? Vegapunk has been portrayed as this guy who's many, many years ahead of everyone else. For him to think that his own creation - an artificial DF of all things - is a failure is kind of odd.
We saw Momo's powers firsthand. He's basically Kaido 2.0, albeit less experienced and cowardly. He's still a kid mentally though, so that's to be expected.
Perhaps the WG had something to do with the fruit staying at Punk Hazard? Not sure why such a powerful fruit would be so easily obtainable that a kid could easily eat it.

Lmao right? I thought Vice Admirals along with Admirals would be more endgame stuff with VAs being like Tobi Roppo to YC level for example (Garp being much higher though ofc lmfao)
Maynard the one who killed Blackbeard IRL gets offscreened by Bartolomeo, the irony is extreme.
Feels like Oda has a LOT planned for the Marines and their complex rankings like IRL but never got to capitalise on it?
I'm worried Stainless might just be killed offscreen and forgotten like a bunch of WB pirates/allies too, he seemed very cool and promising too.
Yamakaji just became fodder for Boa unlike Momonga who was smart at least lol.
Momonga I'm hoping is really strong too and he and Bogard (who is AWOL ironically) will help make Marine swordsmen look great too.
I rather have the Marines be endgame villains over the WG itself tbh. They're far too iconic and well known, especially the Chadmirals and Garp, Sengoku etc too ofc lol.
