Interesting theory. Do you also have a thery why there would be a second war ? Because i think that it is likely that there will be one but i dont see why luffy would involve himself. He would need a strong motivation like one of the SH being captured and i just donst see any of them being captured right now.

Also the vow can still be fulfilled even if shanks died first. It would be a scene where Luffy has already become the pirate king and it could be the last scene of ther eseries where luffy is standing infront of shankses grave and places the Straw hat on it turns back and yells Lets go guys.
