I could see it going either way. I can see your point that it's just a nice little stop along the way, but I could also see it turning out to be a nice big adventure, now that Whitebeard's protection is pretty much null and void. I've always hoped for it to be a medium sized, like a Thriller Bark or Arlong Park kinda deal, where they just have to go fight somebody, nothing too elaborate, just a few fights and continue on. I don't know. Maybe it will be long, should the whole new crew member thing arises. Who knows. Either way I'm sure it's gonna be good!
