i doubt any of those smallfries will show up, but buggy and enel will show up in NW, as luffy is buggy target and i predict enel will play a part in ancient weapon uranus. if we look back at the length of arc after time skip, i'm pretty sure that the story will become serious, because as oda stated, it's already halfway. so no more side quest, and every arc will have main character from shicibukai, supernovas, yonkou, marine, or revolution army.
