its not far fetched that the crew will see this coming. Oda said that Benn Beckman is one of the smartest in one piece so its reasonable that they will see this and react to any trickery that BB throws at them. As for the war... IT WILL BE SO TOTALLY EPIC that the island they fight on will be torn to shreds.
