Wait! I think I just realized the whole Rebecca x Soldier thing. It all came to me when I took a double take on that dam monkey toy. Theory: As a child, Rebecca managed to find comfort and joy in the corrupted Dressrosa thanks to the Toy Soldier who made her smile much like the toy monkey made the young girl smile, hence her affectionate stare in their direction. At some point, the Toy Soldier sought to change things in Dressrosa for the young Rebecca's sake, but this ended up in him loosing his leg and being branded a criminal and to this day she still longs to be with him again and free Dressrosa of Doflamingo's rule so they can smile together once more without the fear of imprisonment... Obvious I know, I just wanted to put it out there...
