It’s interesting though. If Vegapunk rides on the Sunny, then that means the satellites will have to come along too, right?
That’s assuming nothing big goes wrong these next couple chapters of course
I still think something is up with Shaka at least but yeah, im curious what he does with the Satellites if they dont get on the ship.

Random thought, Ive also been thinking a lot about Smoker. He's been conspicuously absent, and i still vibe with the idea that he may grow increasingly disallusioned by the Marines/WG, especially if he witnesses Kizaru's antagonism here. If he also joins the ship to monitor Vegapunk, itd be interesting to see him evolve after seeing why Vegapunk chose to ally with Luffy.

Personally i cant see Vegapunk being a permanent crew member, it jumps too close to Franky's position as the "techy" for example. I can see him being on the ship long enough to share his expertise, as well as provide Elbaf lore signficance, then be dropped off there under the care of Elbaf.

But it keeps bringing me back to Smoker for some reason. Unique/non broken Logia, Juute fighting style, marine position, etc. All good traits.

All the satellites die a tragic and painful death except for one. The original Vegapunk has a massive heart attack and falls down a flight of stairs Kuina style.

Vegapunk wont join, pehaps he will ride to Elbaf with the SH, to develop more the Library plot.


But i would prefer If Robin was alone to get the info there, we dont need him sharing the panel time with her, especially as he already know the info, while Robin and us the readers would be learning the infos.

Think he will work as a way for Oda to give some power-ups to the SH. Ussop, Nami, Sanji, Chopper and especially Franky can get power-ups from him.

For the satelites, they could all be destroyerd by Kizaru, to give at least a little bit of the fealing of danger in the Arc.

I really wish Yamato joined the crew… :josad:
That Oden-wannabe will be more set to join when she has a greater purpose than being a partying, drinking goof-off at sea, and doesn’t equate leaving with abandonment. In fact, since she looks so much up to Oden, she might have even come into conflict with Luffy for not doing things like how Oden would have, leading into a conflict of interest that even Zoro touched on back when Usopp left due to conflict of interest there.

Anyone who’d push aside a Captain’s leadership for not falling along the same lines as some dead man like Oden prob isn’t fight on the crew. Yamato’s priorities are currently so impulsive-driven and ouyetof whack, that she might even end up dying on Wano for all I know, never getting to see Luffy again like how Noland never saw Kalgan’s ever again.

In any event, Yamato meeting different people in Wano now that Luffy is gone might give her quite the wake up call, since she knows so little of the wider world after all.

None of them will join. Trust me there will be no more nakamas, I've been saying that since Wano times, while @Sigran101 @Mr. Reloaded and @CarrotForNakama were laughing at me, and in the end I was right!
