Speculations Gaban's Warning

#1
Gaban told the Straw Hats to visit him if Elbaf is safe when they leave.

Narratively, why did he say this?

1) Imu represents a threat to the island

OR

2) Loki represents a threat to the island

Additional detail: Gaban warned that freeing Loki could bring a catastrophic outcome depending on what kind of person he is and so far Imu hasn't threatened the actual safety of Elbaf. He's only trying to control it.
