Honestly, I was not even a little interested in Egghead. Nothing epic came out of it, there were no good fights, Vegapunk was not good enough (he did not meet my expectations), and Kizaru was nothing special either, completely overshadowed by the Gorosei who were also disappointing.

If you asked any reader to choose two arcs they would be excited to read in the future among Wano, Elbaf, and Egghead, I would definitely say Wano and Elbaf. There was bigger hype around those two even before they were developed. The expectations were higher and that explains the strong sales. Shanks vs Kid, Law vs Blackbeard, and Yonko Luffy vs the Gorosei carried the sales, the Yonko are the ones saving the manga.

God Valley was the most hyped flashback in the entire manga. Expectations around it were always high. It had nothing to do with being good or bad before release, people would buy it regardless. And in the end it turned out like this, nothing special. In my opinion, it was bad, it did not live up to all the hype and expectations placed on it. I would give it a 5 because of Waidou.

I've talked about this before, but the names of the three plants the Ancient Weapons are named after in Japanese are:

Pluton: Meiosei (Darkness King Star)
Uranus: Tennosei (Heavenly King Star)
Neptune: Kaiosei (Sea King Star)

A woman who commands the Sea Kings, the man of the Dark-Dark Fruit and a woman technically with a divine bloodline....

Given that, why isn’t Wano or a representative thereof listed? Why not Franky or someone tied to Pluton? Why not Vegapunk ? If your hypotheses are true then Oda/Imu was lazy and Shirahoshi represents all Anicent Weapons. This is Oda not Tappei writing for story so your thoughts seem feasible.

It’s because none of those have a void century equivalent that Imu sees when he looks at them.

So my guess is somewhere along the line Roger told Shanks about the Sun God Nika and how the government is trying to get their hands on it.

Shanks started off as a pirate and perhaps got Intel the WG were actively looking for the Nika Nika fruit. Knowing his connections to the Figerland family he used it to deceive the WG and join the holy knights (all the while his crew waited).

Shanks knowing the best way to get a hold of it is waiting for the world government to find it and once they did he would then steal it.

This seems like the likely chain of events as to why Shanks did what he did. The freeing the slaves side of things might just be because he wanted to create chaos etc or because he was sick of seeing slaves be mistreated.

The next part is tricky... Either Shanks travelled to East Blue to find Ace to give him the fruit or fate intervened and Luffy ate it but Shanks realised that Luffy was the next sun god because of the words he used which mirrored Rogers. Hence the reason Shanks sacrificed his arm for Luffy.

All in all the only thing I have against this is how dumb the WG seem. Like no one in their right mind would just trust an ex Roger pirate member to just join the highest defence group in the world government in such a short period of time. Even then with the chain of events such as the slaves being freed Shanks would and should definitely be the prime suspect.
