Quick thought, the barrier fruit and the transformation fruit of Mr2 were shown in Wano in the flashbacks, the same barrier fruit was able to effortlessly block an attack from Oden, who’ll later on, go on to scar Kaidou. With Kaidou’s defeat and flashback, we can also see that the Kurozumi hag, actually has more importance than what we previously assumed, you could say she was the greater scope villain of Wano, unless, she’s still alive.
There’s some plot things that don’t add up regarding those two fruits, and their owners, why was Oden blocked so easily by a fruit of a (supposedly) fodder who should be quickly defeated by haki? Oda had Bartolomeo conquer some red hair’s territories under the “name” of Luffy, yet Luffy adores Shanks, and doesn’t want to stumble his toes, unless were it necessary for him to become Pirate King, what’s the consequences of Bartolomeo basically igniting a fight between those two powerhouses? Did he plan for it, so that he would weaken the competition himself? It’s pretty strange having this guy, older than Luffy according to the databooks, consider him as his saviour, not to mention he was described as being ruthless, not a very Luffy-esque trait, so huh? And why is Mr 2 still alive? Of course, this is One Piece, but Magellan had no reason not to kill Mr2 after everything he has done, unless he is actually the old hag, posing as Mr2, a legendary member of Rocks with important knowledge like Doffy or other level 6 characters and she revelation that as her “final words”, thinking about it, “Mr2” at the start was with Crocodile in order to get their hands on an ancient weapon, then tried to put Luffy’s over in the One Piece world, so he would create chaos, and divert the attention of Marines and Yonkous, I mean, Crocodile wasn’t a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but his organization and goal were very impressive all things considered.
Perhaps the old hag awakened her fruit, and with it, she could change the identity of not only herself, but also Rocks, the lurking legend, and with Big Mom and Kaidou defeated, he can make his move, giving the “unexpected” ending Wano is supposed to have, according to the anime team.

and as a bonus, I’ll throw this too, the pirate Shanks wanted to inform the WG, the Lurking Legend, is, unfortunately not Luffy, but Rocks, aka N. 1 Luffy “fan”
