I don't feel Higuma's and Pudding's deaths are uncertain. They most certainly died and I doubt we are going to see them ever again, other then being seen in backgrounds when someone remembers them, like in Ch.583.

Puppuu is most likely dead too but I agree he could have most likely survived as well. But again, I doubt Oda will show him again in the future.

I fully agree about Mr. 9 and Miss Monday though.
