That's it. I believe that Edward Weevil will join the God's Knight, while Donquixote Doflamingo will join the Cross Guild, and below i will elaborate my arguments for this theory. Enumerating the parallel between them: 1st, Doflamingo: was born in a noble place (Mariejois), while Weevil presumably was born in a place as humble as his father, White Beard was. Doflamingo: Is mischievous, knows a very important secret, is uncontrollable. 2nd, Weevil: Is the complete opposite of our former joker, a perfect candidate to be easily controlled by the Gorosei to do their bidding without questioning, not to mention that having a prime White Beard level of power house is not a thing they would want to let go wasted, right? 3rd: While Weevil has immense respect and affection for the father that he never met, Doflamingo immensely despises his own father, to the point of having killing him. 4th: Doflamingo was a noble that fell from the graces of the world government and had to become a pirate, while is Weevil is a strong candidate to be a pirate that will rise to the post of a Tenryuubito (God's Knight), specially tha now he is separated from Mrs. Bakkin, he will be easily manipualted by the Gorosei/God's Knight to to their bidding. How and where will this all happen? Impel Down is where this all will happen (both characters are currently there, and such events are what will lead the Cross Guild to directly confront the God's Knight and force Buggy to join forces with Luffy and the Revolutionaries once again. The Cross Guild will have an interest in Doflamingo and they will storm Impel Down to recruit our psycopath knitter and he will gladly join them only to see the world burning, not to mention that he will be finally working together with our Croco Boy, and we will possibly see Mihawk vs Figarlang Shamrock, the closts of a Mihawk vs Shanks Oda will give us. This, will certainly leave the world government with a bitter taste of defeat and will mark the Cross Guild as a maximum level of threat, and the Cross Guild will have to protect mingo from the evil gorosei, in change of learning whatever secret he holds, not to mention that their bounties will significantly rise. Weevil's final role: He will actually be recruited by the world government as a consolation prize, but during the final war, his mother, that will likely have joined the White Beard Pirates (or whatever new name they are given), will convince her son to change of side and fight for the "justice". Weevil will then realize that he was being fooled by the world government and will front stab them (The reverse of what Squalo did, fooled by Akainu to attack White Beard). After knowing all of the truth from the White Beard Pirate's remnant, he will possibly side with Luffy and Koby to fight Black Beard, or at least, fight his servants/crew mates. Worthy noting: Let's pretend that i nailed all, or at least, most of what i wrote here, for this all to happen, there should be another available vacancy on the God's Knight, what means that someone else would have to leave the group: Who could it be? Gunko? Is she a spy of the Revolutionary Army? Not impossible, asDragon would need intel information to know when and where the God's Knight will make their next movement, but my best bet is that a possible traitor is no less that the character that we just got introduced to: Limoshiff Kirigham. But why am i so rushed in trying to predict the role of someone that we just got introduced to? His introduction itself is a great indicator of what makes me believe that he is a traitor, or will be: He was already introdcued in his hybrid zoan form, and had the white smoke pattern around his neck, a pattern that only characters whose moral aligment are considered to be good were shown so far: Luffy and Yamato, while all those that had a black smoke around their necks are considered to have an evil moral alignment: Rob Lucci, Kaku, the gorosei and Figarland's sword Cerberus. What the Kirin represents? Goodness, wisdom, purity, good luck and justice, all these charactertistic go against what the government does to the Blue Planet, so i think that until the end of Elbaf, or somewhere shortly after it, Kirin will betray the God's Knight, possibly after seeing the events of the Native Hunting Competition that is about to happen, and will leave an open vacancy for they to try to recruit Doflamingo. Remember that Imu is not iniscient, so there might be more people like Mjosgard (Rest in peace) in Mariejoa and rest of the Donquixote Family, good people, trying to change the world from above.

As an OP fan myself, i must admit, this is one of our flaws. A single character shortly introduced is theorization material for ages.
Well, the chapter 1082 gave me a different feeling. I think it is the only time i saw Buggy actually standing on his ground and making it clear that he also has a dream of becoming the Pirate King. He even called them cowards for giving up their dreams. Anyway, while i respect your opinion, i will still stand up with my idea. What about the final part of my theory, that here is, or there will be a traitor amongst the God's Knight? What do you think of it?
True, but Buggy also wants to find the One Piece himself, and a great part of their followers want it too. I think Crocodile and Mihawk will be kinda compelled to join Buggy in this race for the One Piece, otherwise, a conflict of ideas between the top three of Cross Guild can lead to an internal conflict and weaken the guild. Buggy is the most important figure of the guild, as he is considered to be the leader of the world.
Well, but the Cross Guild is not a crew like the mugiwaras, they are there for simply having matching goals, which don't necessarily demand trust. Weevil indeed hates the world government, but he is still silly and easily manipulable. A simple well told lie would be enough to make him trust them, or some kind of brainwashing i think. Also, the Cross Guild would need Doflamingo to tell the secret he knows, so they have a chance of disputing the One Piece with the other yonkous. The mugiwaras currently have Nico Robin and the samurais of Wano. The Red Pirates likely know a secret that can help them reach Laugh Tale. Black Beard Pirates have the (yet to awaken) power of Purin, and will obtain the location of Poseidon and Pluton. What does the Cross Guild have to stand a chance of reaching Laugh Tale, besides the brutal power of its members? Remember that Buggy didn't make it to Laugh Tale, as he fell sick, and unlike Shanks, Buggy didn't do much as a pirate before the begin of the series and was not interested in becoming the pirate king for a while after being disappointed with Shanks (or so i remember, i might be missing one thing or two).
Well, both things already happened
I will take your suggestion. I did the mistake of simply copy pasting from worstgen site, thinking that the text would be formated in the same style here. Yamato is an awakened user as well, the white smoke around his/her neck is a proof of this. About the black smoke around the necks of Kaku and Rob Lucci, i agree 100 %, and i already wrote about it there. Next time i wite anything here, i will make sure of writting properly withou laziness LMAO
Remember: people die when they are forgotten.
I wonder Arlong could be now, as apparently he was not at Impel Down. Maybe he is a slave at Mariejois?
Thriller Bark.
It seems easier of reading here https://worstgen.alwaysdata.net/forum/threads/zoans-own-will-and-their-awakening-1140-spoilers.65038/#post-5939470
I will try my best here to don't make this theory exhausting of reading, and explain that zoans will oftenly find their way with users of similar will/personality.According to what was told by Jupiter Warcury in Wano, all of the zoans have their own will, specially mythological ones. Once awakened, they can lead to three paths, the 1st: the zoan's will will overwrite the will of its users and transform them into a mindless animal, as it was shown with the guards of Impel Down. Whatever personality they had, it was possibly overwritten by the will of their zoans, or the user already had a matching neutral personality with the personality of the zoans and their mindless, feral state, moving by instinct is just a proof of this. (Possibly these guards of Impel Down were some numbers that Kaidou didn't purchase and were used as guniea pigs?Who knows, they are fodder anyway LMAO)2nd: Once awakened, the zoan will, of course, give extra powers to the user, and a misterious white cloud-like smoke will appear around their neck.Known characters to have awakened zoans with the smoke cloud-like around their necks are: Monkey D. Luffy, Yamato, and, with the chapter 1140,Saint Kirigham Limoshif. Luffy has a matching benevolent personality that matches with the spirit in the Hito Hito: Model Nika: seek for freedom for himself and his friends/allies. Same goes for Yamato. Yamato wants to protect Wano, and his/her Inu Inu: Ookuchi no Makami is known for being the spirit protector of Wano. Saint Kirigham Limoshif: while being technically considered as a villain, at least for now , he has the mythological power of the Kirin, a creature known for respecting all life forms, known as a paragon of virtue, goodness, justice and wisdom, depending on the version of the myth, so it is possible to speculate that he either is a traitor (the theory of having a traitor amongst the world government isn't new), will be a traitor, or will have his redemption by the end of the series. Not to mention that it is not clear exactly how they obtained their powers: possibly given by Imu, or obtained like other devil fruit users usually do? Who knows? Worthy remembering that it was already proven that Imu Nerona is not oniscient, as Saint Saturn against the orders of Imu was studying Emeth for over 200 hundred years, rather than destroying it and got away for a long time, before paying his price, and other characters like Mjosgard, Homing and Corazon also were acting on their own and Imu didn't do anything against them, possibly not knowing of their actions.Now, for the awakened zoan users with the black lightning-like cloud around their necks.Rob Lucci: a bloodthirsty world government assassin that that has the Neko Neko: Leopard. They have matching personalities, as Leopard are known for being ruthless and bloodthirsty predatorsKaku: Though he has a more soft and calm personality, he has the Ushi Ushi no mi: model giraffe. Giraffes are calm mammal and herbivorous, but can become quite dangerous and step on smaller preys, which may justificate (or maybe not) the black lightning-like smoke around Kaku's neck. Who knows what might happens to his smoke if Kaku returns redeemed and becomes an ally of the Mugiwaras or even the Revolutionary Army?* The Gorosei/Figarlang Shamrock: No need to elaborate here, do i?*Others: Kaidou, the user of Uo Uo No Mi: Model Seiyaryuu. While being technically considered as the strongest creature alive, Kaidou didn't have his zoan awakened and i will try to elaborate my theory here of why it happened. It is because Kaidou's strenght had some great use for the Uo Uo zoan spirit, but they didn't have matching personalities. In fact, they are opposing.The Uo Uo is derivated from the chinese legend of the carp that has to swim a waterfall and once it reches the top, as a reward, the fish becomes a blue chinese dragon, however, once Kaidou ate the fruit, he instantly gained access to his dragon form without needing to overcome any difficulty to awaken. You know who did that? Monkey D. Luffy in his battle against the former captain of the beast pirates, and, in a poethical context, all of the people of Wano. The Uo Uo spirit was making use of Kaidou's strenght to have Luffy awaken his nika form by climbing a "waterfall", (or better yet, ascending to heaven, to return later awakened), through here, i presume that even if the zoan has not a matching personality with the user, the zoan can fulfill his will using the user's strenght, or possibly Oda simply didn't want to give Kaidou the awakening for he already being too strong the way he was.What are your thoughts over this all that i wrote? Make some sense, or just a bunch of random ggiberish? Yeah, i copied this theory from myself, Mr. Katakuri at the Worstgen site, just in case of someone finding the thread over there.
