Last time, we left Drake with some suspense. Assisting to Hawkins presumed death.
After that, complete silence.
Not even his subordinates from SWORD (who are near Egghead Island) made contact with him.
We should also keep in mind that Drake is the only Worst Generation member with that had an estabilished relationship with Vegapunk since Sabaody.
Or at least some decent knowledge of his work.
On top of that, isn't it peculiar that Drake is the Worst Generation member more constantly inserted in winter contexts and environments?
All this should add up to the fact that Drake didn't have proper closure with Luffy, which makes me think that their collaboration in Onigashima was only a set-up for their next meeting in Egghead Island.
What do you think?
