Really i think the safest way to characterize the main journey is this:

Egghead -> X? -> Elbaf -> X? -> Lodestar -> Laugh Tale.

In this way, it accepts that there are at least 3 islands left (Elbaf, Lodestar, Laugh Tale) since Geographically this makes the most sense, without ruling out the idea of Fullalead (since its close) or some other arc before Lodestar.
That’s fair, but I think Akainu needs to leave. He’s been lamenting having to stay out of combat for too long that personally I think he needs to be able to leave to fight luffy.

And Raftel I think can only be a lore dump. There shouldn’t be any enemies there purely because that would make luffys goal of reaching there look kinda lame if it was a land where people already lived in. And Lodestar I kinda don’t see a point to. It’s not connected to any villain or lore point so it’s just kinda… pointless to go to.
I explained on an earlier page, but I think we as a fanbase definitely have misunderstood Lodestars importance. What Inu and Roger were saying is that there are no longer ant magnetic pulls beyond Lodestar, not that Lodestar is the literal final island on Grand Line and if you find all 4 RPs, you no longer go there.

Aka, we must go to Lodestar in order to sail to Laugh Tale regardless, because its how the journey converges with other routes. The picture below depicts Lodestar specifically (ロードスター) and an arrow after for Laugh Tale. Other shots of this show an X mark after the islands converge.



Regarding LT content, Id argue that length/signficance for a lore dump obviousy depends considering Egghead right now lol, so we'll see.

Regarding Akainu, I guess I just truthfully put him further on the backburner. Imo, Kizaru is the main focus this arc, but who knows truly after.

1. I guess I see what you mean now about Lodestar. Honestly tho I guess it seems like a good place to fight Blackbeard since it’s a stop gap to Raftel.

2. On Sakazuki, yeah I also thought it’d just be Kizaru; however I think with the inclusion of Morgan’s spreading the fake news about Luffy things are only going to get more severe. And honestly, if Kizaru gets defeated in Egghead (what I believe is going to happen) the gorosei will need to send more strong member of the marines in order to ensure Saturns safe return to Mariejoa. So the two remaining admirals and Sakazuki will all go, and while the two admirals bring back Saturn Sakazuki will stay back to fight luffy

Elbaf
loadstar
laughtale
mariejois
These would be my picks if Oda intends to keep 5 year time span to wrap up the series
Probably the cleanest route tbh. I do argue that New Marineford is important if Akainu doesnt make his move outside of the base anytime soon. It is supposed to be the NW guard to Mariejois after all. But I guess in the end its all the same thing

New Marineford could also happen at the same time of Mary Geoise... I think it is a possibility

For example, half of the Final Alliance could push on New Marineford to let the other half approach Mary Geoise.

Or something like that.

Elbaf
Lodestar
Laughtale
Marineford+Marijois

I'm guessing Elbaf and Lodestar would be short arcs. Laughtale will have long flashbacks. Then Marineford + Marijois would be mostly battle.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is what i believe now:

Next Destination is "Mary Geoise" & this Saga is Brook's Story (He is the Damsel In Distress of this Saga)
Imu's Secret Room is Afterlife & it's gonna be 2nd Main Location of this Saga (Similar to what Enies Lobby was for Water 7)

Final Saga is "Elbaf Kingdom" & still don't know who it's gonna Focus on (Final Damsel In Distress)
After Mary Geoise Arc, SHs gonna visit Lodester Island followed by Laugh Tale followed by Elbaf Kingdom.
There could be other Islands though, but these Five i just mentioned are the ones i'm 100% Certain of

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It also Mirrors Start of Story:

Alvida's Island ---> Whole Cake Island
Morgan Island ---> Wano
Buggy Island ---> Mary Geoise
Gaimon Island ---> Lodester/Laugh Tale
Usopp's Island ---> Elbaf
Going Merry (It was their Reward after all these Arcs) ---> One Piece (Final Treasure)
