ageing up, ageing down: jewelry bonney
You know what I haven't seen mentioned, although I'm sure it has been mentioned, is this:
Tumblr media
The fact that Bonney changing the ages of the Straw Hats stopped this Pacifista from going after them .
An older model Pacifista is not a seraphim, but it carries the same kind of intention, and Kuma was also a warlord, and S-Bear's out there.
Tumblr media
Zoro tells us
Tumblr media
that a Lunarian, such as King, can't be hurt unless the fire goes out on their back (I had to include the joke above), and Shaka confirms
that the Seraphim were
Tumblr media
strengthened, I guess, by the unethical means of using King's blood (that he didn't give over willingly when he was a prisoner—"test subject"—at Punk Hazard).
Anyway, I'm wondering if affecting ages also affects the ability or will of attack in the seraphim. It might not, because York gave orders to kill everyone. But, remember
Tumblr media
also that Sentamoru gave the orders to the most elite Pacifistas to protect Luffy, the Straw Hats and their creator, and to see that
Tumblr media
they all get away safely.
Luffy and co are not going to know that the Pacifistas are on their side, so I expect a few more scenes like this:
Tumblr media
where the Straw Hats might fight or run.
Or maybe Luffy's future-sight will see that they're allies, OR, will an order override Sentomaru's again and turn them against everyone?
SO, what my point(s) really is/ are
-- will Bonney change ages of allies and friends, and hence stop the seraphim pacifista attacks?
-- will all seraphim somehow associate Bonney with Kuma and with the earlier and current pacifista, and somehow be the one to ultimately command them all? She's gotta be there for a reason. And Kuma's gonna be a crucial player, I think. We didn't see it in the panels above, but I wonder if it's something to unlock.
Possibly Sanji's own modifications might come into it too.
Also, Revolutionaries too, right? With all the other excitement, maybe this conversation has been forgotten:
Tumblr media
and Shaka got wiped out (we think), but Dragon no doubt has some kinda contingency/back up plan. Just what did Shaka tell him? (or was it a red herring to divert attention from York?).
Is he on his way to Egghead Island too, especially after Kuma teleported away. AND after we witnessed Shanks' awesome future sight in chapter 1079, the best future sight we've seen so far, maybe this is literal. Maybe Vegapunk does have this ability too? But which Vegapunk?
