Nah I dont think each arc would be 80-100 chapters long lol:
- Egghead: 30-50 chapters left potentially
- Fullalead/Underworld: If Stussy leads us there for the Burned Man or Rocks lore, I expect it to be short and more expositional, no direct villain. Zou sized and 20-30 chapters.
- Elbaf: Signficant, 80-100 chapters and cant be helped imo. Elbaf definitely has its own issues that Luffy will resolve, regardless if some people think its irrelevant.
- 4th RP/Lodestar/LT: Imo, these 3 "arcs" or locations will be 4 Yonko centric and may take another 100-150 chapters altogether
- Final Conflict w/ WG: 100 or so chapters.
This is why I say 300-400 chapters is a safe guess. You cant really take away any of this save for maybe Fullalead or Underworld since they arent "guaranteed" to exist or happen, but the rest are central to the manga.
The key really is Elbaf and its relationship to the end. Is it separate or central to the 4th RP and LT plotline?

@Etzel Andergast
Exactly my thoughts lol. Think about Stussy:
- Rocks clone
- CP0 member
- Underworld Empress
Best place to hide VP is the Underworld. Best place to look for the burned man too likely is the Underworld. This is exactly wht I think its next, at least a location tied to it.
These things may also be tied to Elbaf ifn some way but who knows.
