People are too demanding to desire a character like Gaban. I don't even understand where the idea comes from. Baseless assumption. But last time silhouette-piece like that happened, it was Aokiji on Punk Hazard and people had guessed correctly according to how the character spoke. Shanks is the most obvious candidate this time, but this is dumb as hell to flee from Wano only to wait for him an arc later for apparently no reason whatsoever, what even changed since then ?

Just wonder what Gabban's role and purpose is supposed to be. Telling where Laughtale lies or some lore? We had Rayleigh for that and the Straw hats refused. Especially since that person specifically awaits them like he had some business with them.

Doubt it's Shiki either though.
Probably reveal location of final poneglyph, give Luffy some lore about Roger’s powers and then send them off their way

Honestly Id rather assume Scopper, it makes far less sense to me Shiki being friendly with Crocus when Oda made him a conniving asshole even in Strong World.

Makes far more sense to me that a former Roger Pirate would allow Crocus to celebrate.

There’s no real reason to think Gaban will ever play a role. He’s a lesser Rayleigh in every respect. Not as close to Roger, not as strong, not as relevant.
Why is everything a powerscale on this fanbase lmao. We just got a 64 chapter arc centered around a 12 year old girl

Hardly centred around powerscaling when it’s one of three reasons I don’t think Gaban will ever play a role.
He's barely a character yet, so any other reason you think you have is largely superficial lol. He's still a Roger pirate, and still is someone that can be used to assist the crew, namely give info on the 4th Road Poneglyph, or tease Lodestar/Laugh tale in a way other members havent.

We’ve seen the Roger Pirates interact, and we’ve seen Roger’s goodbye to them. Shanks got special treatment with his mysterious crying after Laugh Tale, Ray got special treatment by being the one Roger personally spoke to before leaving. We also saw throughout that Ray is the one Roger is closest to, the only one who doesn’t call him captain, his right hand man etc.

While Roger and Gaban barely spoke to each other and Gaban really got nothing other than a quick mention that he’s strong.

Oda gave nothing to make us think that Gaban is somehow taken it upon himself to be some last guardian of Laugh Tale and the Poneglyphs. Why would he be doing that when Ray, who was far closer to Roger and knew him better, didn’t feel the need?

Elbaf doesn’t need another Roger Pirate, it‘s already got Shanks linked with it, Saul, all the Ohara research and the long-lived giants with their knowledge of Nika.

Why fandoms think it has to be Gabban?? Or act like Gabban is going to be important/major player in future......
We have Rayleigh that fills all the role Gabban could have, and much more important figure than him. And at best even Rayleigh is just side support character.

If Shiki is irrelevant and so is Gabban, what exactly convey Gabban to be more relevant over Shiki, to be fair Shiki is even more relevant than him as per the portrayal and involvement.
And I don't think it's Shiki either. But at least has higher chance than no.3 of Roger pirates
