Zoro was stronger before timeskip. But Sanji was better at not getting hurt so it worked out fair in the end.

The prophecy about fishman island being destroyed was probably a metaphor for the end of the segregation, and the acceptance of both races everywhere ("fishman island" will no longer exist because it won't be just for fishmen anymore...)

No speculation about what DF are? That is raised as something of a mystery in One Piece.

I reckon the next crewmember will be Jinbe, because he has two "past tragedies" which are the requirments for joining, and he'd be at a loose end otherwise

And we know Blackbeard was eliminating supernovas to try and clear the way to One Piece. given how tough they were, I don't think he's done yet...
