I wonder if Kuma's Seraphim doesn't really have an artificial version of the Nikyu Nikyu but the warping technology Vegapunk was testing a couple of chapters ago.

Where are you getting the idea that Sentomaru respects Luffy? I’m interested because I don’t remember this being implied.
I would want to punch Robin if she just casually welcomed the ones who were doing everything in their power to kill her and her friends. I doubt Oda would do this, because something like this being revealed out of nowhere with no build-up would make anyone confused.
When Sentomaru defeated Demalo Black he stated Luffy not to be scum like him.
Also, I'm not saying Robin would be casually welcoming them nor I believe it personally, but, if anything, CP9's cover story revolved around truly helping people the moment they left the Government and I don't think it will be left hanging. Either this is explored now that Lucci is starting to reflect on the Government's actions or something happened during the timeskip that will be revealed next chapters; but reducing them into villains again would be a waste of character development.

He can respect luffy and still try to kill them. He a marine. The only way he doesn't is if Luffy is going against the same enemy or someone is doing something worse at the moment.
Sure, but we all know what happens when someone respects Luffy. Even a villain like Crocodile helped him during Marineford. Also, "He a marine" holds no weight; in case it wasn't obvious since day one, Vegapunk recently stated that not everybody in the Government is evil and Sentomaru not only respects Luffy but is Vegapunk's bodyguard (and he's proud of his defense).
Of course he may still try to kill them, but in a scenario where CP0 aims at killing Vegapunk and Vegapunk himself openly trusts Luffy? Have my doubts. As minimum, dilemma is served.
