I want to add something interesting.
Pre-TS we had East Blue Saga & Nami was used as the Damsel in Distress who wanted “Revenge"
Post-TS also had Dressrosa Saga where this time the focus was on Law's Revenge
You can even notice that both Nami/Law Sub-Plot started when the Villain was a Clown who wanted to kill them for their Betrayal
After that, we had Arabasta Saga which focused on Vivi Sub-Plot to save her Family/Kingdom, and her Identity was revealed in Small Arc where Two Agents appeared to capture her (Mr. 5 Duo)
Conveniently, Post-TS also had WCI Saga which focused on Sanji, who also wanted to save his Family/Kingdom, and his True Identity was revealed in Small Arc where Capone & Pekoms arrived to capture him
But that's not all, right after Arabasta, we had Skypiea Arc where there seemed to be multiple Allies but the main focus Character was from a Flashback, it's Noland, you could say that it's a Saga to Honor Noland
Which is exactly what can be said about Wano Arc after WCI, where the Key Character and Main Drive was about Honoring Oden
So based on this pattern, I can confirm that just like Post-Skypiea we had a Saga about Robin, followed by one about Ace, Post-TS also still have Two more Sagas (Mary Geoise & then Elbaf) where Two Nakama will be at the Heart of their Plots
So who will be the Damsel In Distress of this Saga/Arc? It needs to be a very Close Ally of Luffy
What's interesting is that this Saga started by showing us multiple Friends in trouble, such as Hancock, Koby, Law, Vivi, Sabo ... etc
But all of these are not what we are looking for, that's because this Arc mirrors Foxy Arc
As you can see, Post-Skypiea Arc, they met Tonjit who wanted to leave the Island, just like Vega in this Arc
After that they got attacked by a Trio of Foxy and his Two Male/Female Subordinates, and similarly they also got attacked by CP-0 Trio (Foxy Fight was Comedic and it seems so is Lucci's)
So what happened then?!
A New Villain appeared, Aokiji!!
What did he do?
1. He helped Tonjit leave the Island
2. He warned SHs about one of them
3. He was teased before his Arrival
4. He defeated entire Crew
5. He spared Luffy cuz of Garp
In other words, a "New Major Villain" is coming to Egghead who is Extremely Powerful (+Yonko Level), however he isn't Main Villain of this Saga, he will simply be a warning to SHs for what to expect in Final War
This New Villain should be teased, and Lucci did tell us about WG Ships Disappearing
He will spare Luffy cuz of an Old Acquaintance, have we heard of such thing? Yes, Oda both confirmed someone related to WB and is +Yonko Level, that someone is "The Lurking Legend"
Also remember that Aokiji left HQ which he isnt allowed to, just to meet Luffy after seeing his Poster
Meaning this Villain only decided to leave his Home to meet Sun God Nika (That's why Gorosei went crazy about Luffy's Poster), cuz One Nation knows who it is, it's Elbaf Kingdom
But who will be Key Character of this Saga which is Mary Geoise similar to Robin before?
It's obviously only Character with Mysterious Childhood, lived in a a very old Era and have Theme of a Knight and even was one before, it's none other than Brook!!!
So in conclusion:
Luffy trashed Lucci and CP-0
Lurking Legend will be Introduced now
He is responsible for Ship Disappearances
He will capture Vegapunk or tell him where to go
Lurking Legend is from Elbaf
He knows WB well
He is Caribou's Boss (Elbaf's God of War)
He will defeat SHs or at least Luffy
Sun God Poster caught his interest
He will talk about Brook and tease his Past
Luffy & Others will get captured by WG/Marines
Start of Mary Geoise Arc
I also believe Imu will use his Weapon again
Zoro might get hurt by it
Vega gets Angry that his Weapon is used like that
Vega was targeted due to creating that Weapon
The reason Kuma is flying towards Egghead is cuz when he was getting fixed, his Brain returned to old Setting of Protecting SHs/Sunny
Kuma could be coming to help defend against Lurking Legend
