Well, I don't understand one thing
If this is the final battle and the Rocks crew is supposed to disband after that, does that mean Rocks' goal was just to save one woman?
Or does he mean that if they don't achieve their goal, this will be their last battle?
Rocks doesn’t say what his goal is.
like go back to 1096, we don’t hear why Rocks is there, we just hear everyone else, Stussy is talking about this being their fiber battle, big mom and captain John are talking about getting treasure… Kaido is talking about wanting to fight Roger after hearing that he’s on his way
we explicitly don’t hear Rocks talk about his goal
what I gather is that since the Harald plan has already fallen apart by God valley, some group of Rocks pirates have Rocks and ultimatum. They were going to go and steal the CD treasures (remember the treasures included the dragon fruit and Kuma’s fruit + Shakky) with or without him…
They were going to disband no matter what, and they just decided that it’s fine for their final mission to be stealing the CD Treasures and saving Shakky… That’s everybody else… Rocks probably had other reasons for joining
