General & Others Egghead is already in the Top 10

#1
Like the title says, Egghead is about to be in the Top 10 longest Arcs in all of One Piece! It currently is tied with Water 7 (both have 44 chapters).

I find that especially worthy to mention because It TOTALLY doesn't feel that long. because of the un-OP-like pacing and frequent location switch-ups, most of us just don't seem to register the technical length of it all. I mean, it already had two relatively lengthy flashbacks (Reverie and Kuma) and tons of tons of reveals and lore.

And it's not even over yet, it totally could reach Top 8 or maybe 7 (Thriller Bark is 8th with 48, while Fishman Island is 7th with 51), depending on how long it'll still go on for.

And we still need to see what happened during that small time skip. Furthermore there are so many things that are missing considering Vegapunk, Shaka and Lucci - there is still another flashback incoming. And than we have the buildup to that flashback and the fight against the WG in itself.

This arc is going to be long ... .

Oda organizes Arcs & Chapters based on Volumes
So Pacing & which Reveals come first & which Cliffhangers are used depend on Chapter Order inside Manga Volume
And each Volume Ends with a Teaser about what's Next Volume gonna be about

We already had Volume 105 which was about Egghead/Arc Introduction
Followed by Volume 106 which was about Vegapunk & Science in General (Inner Conflict)
Followed by Volume 107 which mainly focused on Sub-Plots outside Egghead (Outer Conflict)
And soon We will have Volume 108 which was mostly about dealing with this Marine Attack Situation
And currently We are at Start of Volume 109 which starts with these recent Bonney Chapters & should focus mostly on Kuma

Currently We are 2-3 Chapters in Volume 109, so expect 1-2 more Chapters of Flashback, followed by 3-5 Chapters about Kuma's Role.
And since Oda leaves the Biggest Cliffhangers or Teasers for End of Volume, then Egghead Incident should be Half-Revealed around Chapter 1010, which makes it the Main Focus of Volume 110 & End of Egghead Arc

So Overall, i believe Egghead Arc is Six Manga Volumes & will probably End around Chapter 1020 (~60 Chapters Arc).
And if i'm Correct about my Prediction, then i believe a Super Legendary Foe is gonna be Introduced in Chapter 1111

The anime will probably show us this. The ending of Wano also seemed very rushed in the manga, but the anime added useful filler.
There is actually a very good reason, why Oda cut out much of Egghead. For example - I was so hyped shortly before Oda inserted the time skip, because Chopper - the doctor - was heading down into the basement where Shaka laid bleeding from his head and "dead". He would have at least looked at the injury and therefore would have pulled that helmet off of Shaka. And I guarantee you, Shaka looks 100% similar to someone's currently on Egghead. Going by how he behaves and speaks, it is earily similar to someone of CP0 - Lucci.

Speaking of him - I want to know what happened overall between him and Luffy before the cut - I want to know how the SHPs and Vegapunk were able to capture York, defeat the Seraphim and make themselves at home up in the Labo-phase. This is too much of a skip to feel natural.

Oda is hiding that Shaka and Lucci are brother-like counterparts. And he is hiding that Lucci is still on the SHPs side.
