that bit about Lulusha from Lucci seems to imply he's not 100% on board about all this.

Lucci is probably mad he wasn’t ordered to go and murder each person in hand to hand combat.

If the Vegapunks all represent sins I wonder if we'll have a team-up/rivalry with the Straw Hats that also represent that sin?

They don't we are told what they represent at the end of the chapter.

So does OG Vegapunk still exist and the "satellite bodies" are basically extensions of his will or did he literally split his mind into six separate bodies? If its the latter then my guess is that the individual Vegapunks each only have portions of his memories but not the whole picture, which would be an effective way to finally meet Vegapunk without completely revealing every world shattering secret they know before the crew gets to Laugh Tale.

His main body should still exist from what Lilith said.

We are absolutely getting a lagann-hen finale style battle in this arc where each member of the crew gets a giant robot that adapts their ability somehow. possibly definitely combining robots.

So we're definitely in the arc where Kizaru gets punched in the face. Those hologram gloves are crying out for narrative purpose. Is Kizaru a Vegapunk? I dunno. Is Luffy gonna deck him with the Nintendo power glove? Ya.

The Strawhats are finally gonna beat an admiral.

I guess, but anyone capable of defeating Kizaru wouldn't really need them since they'd be capable of hitting him anyway.

Just a friendly reminder of what it looks like.

We'll do punctuation later.
if kizaru does show up (which feels pretty possible since just lucci 2.0 would be a little underwhelming as the arc's final boss) there would probably be some gags with luffy insisting on using the gloves even though he could just use haki

Who else is even left who could conceivably pose a threat at this point? BB and the admirals seem like a lock at this point. Maybe Shanks? Whatever’s going on with Im is probably going to be the final boss if BB jobs out. The pacifista will probably be important somehow but I kind of doubt they’ll amount to much more than Zoro/Sanji fodder in the long run. Maybe Black Bartholomew here will play an Oars jr. role in this arc.
