Coincidentally all these reunions involve with meeting up with someone previously thought dead
Even in Vegapunk and Kuma’s case with them both “dead” will still likely have meaningful reunions as well. Maybe with dragon and the revs since he probably thinks they’re dead. With all the holy knight focus it’d be a good arc for dragon to make his way imo
Maybe we’ll get more similar moments with the other strawhats. Them either directly reuniting with a thought to be gone loved one or someone with ties to a loved one
For example
- Jinbe might think aladine sacrificed himself
- Zoro meeting a grown up kuina would be dope
- Chopper meeting a child of kureha or hiriluk could interesting
Also the theme would add another reason as to why big mom should be involved in elbaf. With the world thinking she’s dead
I also made a theory a minute ago why big mom and all her enemies might all end up coming to elbaf
Love or hate her Linlin has lots of ties to elbaf and potential stakes in returning. There’s coincidentally a good chance a lot of her prior enemies also end up all arriving at elbaf too
Obviously Loki and the giants who live there. Her fucking up her relationships with all of them
Obviously luffy and the strawhats who are already there
Potentially the holy knights as well if some of them end up being tied to mother Carmel and the other kids in the “orphanage”
Along with luffy I think there’s a pretty high probability we get all the worst generation coming to elbaf
- Luffy again obviously
- Zoro is here
- Bonney is here already and has similarities to Linlin
- Kid was defeated at the coast of elbaf so he’s likely near. Kid and her already having beef
- Killer is with kid
- Law might have been brought to elbaf by bepo. He also fought her in wano
- Capone was apart of her crew fucked her over and is with Lola
- Urouge is definitely coming to elbaf imo plus he defeated snack
- Blackbeard is an opportunist. His crew attacked tottoland stole pudding. Plus he might be seen as the sun god of destruction in elbaf
- Hawkins I just think he’ll help law
- Drake honestly same with Hawkins but sword could just potentially show up in general
- Apoo imo is going to weirdly enough help kid. Also he tried to invade tottoland too
There’s also the chance Neo mads comes to Elbaf for whatever reason and reunites with vegapunk imo. Both Caesar and Judge already have a negative relationship with Linlin too
If the wci team is getting back together I think we’re also gonna need to see the sun pirates. They have bad relations with big mom, they might know sun god lore, and the giants want to see more fishmen
Is that arguably too many characters? Maybe but knowing oda there’s probably gonna be even more lol. The revolutionary army honestly has a good shot at showing up too
Pedro like pound and like pekoms is 100% going to end up being alive due to crazy nonsense
“If” he is carrot and the mink could also end up turning up
It’d be cool to see zunesha walk on elbaf too to see how big he is compared to the land
