World-building, foreshadowing chapter. This one of those chapters we're going to look back on multiple times in the future because of all the things I think are foreshadowed to be revealed, starting here.

1.) Cobra asking the WG about the poneglyphs sure, but he also plans to ask them about the Leader of the Nefeltari/Nefertari(?) clan around the Void Century. Why did he choose to stay and not go to Mariejois with everyone else? Also, Vivi's comment about the suitor I think may be foreshadowing that her and Kohza will eventually get it on.

2) Goa - I'm not sure if this was bad translation, are their last names supposed to be Nantucket? Seems like a real world reference to something rather important and influential, just can't think of what off the top of my head. Either way I think we'll get more history about where Sabo and Luffy come from, and we might learn something we didn't expect.

3) World Leaders - Thalassa Lucas was the one who made the prediction about Dragon's potential, wonder what he has to say now. As for everyone else, I think Oda intentionally placed those narration boxes to hide things that we might recognize, like some of the symbols on the hats. I could be just reading too much into it, but I definitely think for example that the guy with the striped hat and clock hands for a beard is the King of Lvneel. The other ones on that that same panel line as him could be related to some of the supernova.

4) Wapol - I think Oda had big plans for this guy all along, and we know Franky used Wapometal in the Iron Shogun. After taking all that time with his mini-series, I feel like a big reveal with him is coming.

5) Manboshi confirms Otohime's petition is complete, and they've got the signatures to relocate the Fishmen. If the Fishmen really do relocate, we have yet another reason that Luffy destroying Fishman Island for some reason makes sense plotwise, before we even know the REAL reason he's gonna do it. Also, I'm positive the WG knows Shirahoshi is Poseidon, so I can see them trying to kidnap her. Either way this spells trouble.

6) When Luffy took Carrot's um, carrot.....her eyes went white and she went completely feral. I don't think this was a joke, and is a hint to a really fearsome power the Minks have. We also don't have an explanation as to why Pekoms home was mysteriously destroyed. Did he go feral for some reason too? Either way there's still a mystery to the Minks power we don't know, Electro included.

7) Finally, I don't think there was even a battle at all with the Revolutionaries. I'm about 99.5% sure that they had already left to gather their leaders by the time the BB Pirates got there and attacked. The BB Pirates probably just ransacked the base and destroyed it after they took what they could.
