I generally agree with this most of the comments thus far. The way things are going One Piece, the Will of D. and the Void Century seem to have a connection. Whether they are all tied together I cannot say, but they will all probably be explained towards the end near or at Raftel. The Void Century and the Ancient Weapons do seem to have a connection, and probably do, but as to why, we can only guess. I'd want to say for that certain country to fight off the now WG, but Rayleigh's words about the truth left me hesitant about it. I for one would like to see Sabo alive, but I could see it going either way. But if he is alive I could also seeing it being an unhappy reunion. Kuma, I really don't know. This one I actually have no clue as to what he was thinking, other than maybe a huge plan by Dragon and by having Kuma do this he can get Vegapunk to join the revolutionaries as a double agent or something. I really can't wait to find out though. Blackbeard. Thats all that needs to be said. He's done so many things that at this point I honestly wouldn't be totally surprised by anything he pulls out of his hat, whether it be the use of his DF, a parasitic twin, or he simply ripped the fruit out of Whitebeard and ate a second DF. And lastly, Luffy's mother. I could actually see either of your ideas, Dark King Rayleigh and Pandawarrior. I actually never thought of her being a noble or the like, but it sounds reasonable, and could tie in with the reason why Dragon started the revolution.I think that would be a better route than having her be a pirate or something. She should be a "normal" person with big views and a big heart, but nothing more.
