Controversial What does Oda mean by this?

#4
I am going out on a limp here, but

The Lion is a Christian symbol. The frog is an ancient Egyptian symbol.
The gestures by Luffy and Zoro are ones of oppression.
It is a form of mockery, a roundabout way of saying "the antichrist wins".
Although the statement is not being meant serious, and thus the mockery is two-folded. The actual mockery of god can only mock those who believe in Christ and the Antichrist. And thus the second mockery is directed at those who do manage to interpret the meaning successfully.

As in, "you managed to figure it out! congratulations, loser! now here is your sinister reward! the brightest candles burn the shortest, tough luck for you!"
