Wow We are at the climax of WCI and stiil cannot guess how straw hats are going to escape. Let's say that Pudding comes through with the wedding cake, then there is still an ambush waiting at Sunny and somehow if they can overcome it they are still in the middle of BM's territory with warships about to surround the whole island.

On the prediction side  let's say Pudding will come through with the cake and temporarily stall BM (it's stall not stop BTW) I can't quite think how the fight with Katakuri will go down. I do think the underwater transponder snails would have been "taken care" of by the New Fishman pirates and with nami's guidance and Jimbei at the controls they could escape.( maybe some help from Grema as well; don't know about the others but Reiju's story won't end without a proper goodbye.)
