I don't know if this was said anywhere else but I had this thought:
The secret of D. is probably not what everyone always thought.
To make it short, D. stands for the first pirate crew ever, Joyboys pirate crew. And all the people today with the name D. are the descendants of the first pirates, which is why they are all spread out around the world. Roger disbanded his group after raftel and many theorized that he did this, so that (some of) his crew member would guide the next joyboy like crocus and rayleigh. I believe the roger pirates had the inspiration from the D. crew. They also spread out to the world. Probably after joyboys death/defeat. Why? To place and protect/hide the poneglyphs all around the world. It would also give some parallel to vivi and lily, just like vivi, lily was also secretly a part of Joyboys crew, which the government didn't knew. Because she is also a D.
It would also show why all people with the D. don't fear death, because they live their live to the fullest without regret, meaning they are adventuring and fullfilling their dreams, just like pirates do (atleast that is the ideal). Except Marshall D. teach. Which brings us to the only D. who is afraid if death. We all know he also has dreams and is a "dreamer", just like luffy. But his methods are the exact opposite, as he is cunning and plotting. With the saying "every ship has it's own shame" I believe he also parallels his ancestor, who betrayed joyboy. So that he would reign at the top. Which is why Joyboy lost. But probably imu and co fucked him up.
That's why I also believe that the final villain will be imu and not bb, because 900 - 800 years ago the eras bb was not the final villain, it was imu. So in this era, maybe bb will even help joyboy to defeat imu, who knows.
Just quick thoughts of mine.
