Maybe the final Road Poneglyph is part of Captain John's treasure?

the location of two road poneglyphs is known- big mom and kaido had them. getting those is something of a problem but much less so than it used to be. the third one is on zou, and that's a secret almost no one in the world knows. but buggy was with roger while he was gathering the poneglyphs, so he might well know. the last one is on the mysterious black ship, but there are rumors to that effect so it's no great secret. for that one, he can compete with the other emperors.

the real problem is that buggy does not have anyone who can read the poneglyphs.

Wild, unfounded speculation:

Buggy will end up finding the burn scar guy first and take the 4th one for himself. As for reading the Poneglyphs, he does know someone who might be able to read them: Momonosuke. Cross Guild will turn up to Wano, and it'll turn out Momo remembers Buggy and they hit it off like old friends. He gets the Wano poneglyph, and somehow convinces Sukiyaki or Momo to join them or somehow gets them to agree to translate the poneglyphs for him. Meanwhile Crocodile or Mihawk effortlessly invade Big Mom's defunct territory and get her's. And it's likely Buggy remembers Zou as well.

Or maybe the Burn Scar guy can read the poneglyphs too, and by finding him they have a translator of their own

wasn't it stated that mono doesn't know the language? of course his granddad does but he's not known to be alive to the wider wano public or even momo? I forget if they were introduced

Maybe his grandpa taught him some stuff here and there since we last saw' em, though the bigger problem is I can't imagine Momo leaving Wano after all that.

With Momo being able to read poneglyphs (?), Pluton being in Wano, and Caribou saying he's going to tell someone (I'm guessing Crocodile) about Pluton, I'd almost be willing to bet Cross Guilds is heading Wano way.

If Caribou's entire existence lead to Buggy being a legit One Piece contender, lol I hope so.

I think so far, seeing Oda move all these pieces on such a macro level that we really organically have major end game contenders that are meeting all the conditions is absolutely incredible and is genuinely kind of mesmerizing.

Luffy, Blackbeard, and Shanks all have various degrees of Poneglyphs, Luffy and Blackbeard have Poneglyph readers (with Shanks maybe tapping Saul as his, if Saul is both the burned man and been reading all those Ohara books he saved).

Like even Buggy, as the longest shot contender, has been proven to fail his way upward the entire series, so we as the audience can believe exactly what may happen to keep him in the running as well.

It's grand!

This was a great reveal. Given Buggy's past trajectory I had wondered if he would be dragged, kicking and screaming, through an incredibly unlikely series of accidents to the One Piece, but as funny as that would have been, this is so much better. Dreams mean something, even to Buggy. He may have been swept along by events outside his control before this, and he may be swept along after this, but in this moment he declared his dream. If he makes it to Laugh Tale- when he makes it to Laugh Tale, it will be with the conviction he has in his own dream.

I hope final battle in the whole manga is a Luffy vs Buggy rematch.

The opening of this chapter was really shocking and tragic. T-Bone was a good person and his death was the most shocking way to make Cross Guild unsympathetic. It's one thing for them to be sticking it to the authorities, giving them a taste of their own medicine. It's another thing for them to be responsible for the death of T-Bone, as he's undoubtedly doing everything he can to actually help desperate people. But this self-sacrifice angle makes a ton of sense, and I don't know how I feel about it all now. T-Bone saw an opportunity to help these people, and he took it. He went out on his own terms. That's... kind of heartwarming, even though the whole situation is really tragic?

T-Bone is a goofy, over the top side character, but even as a joke he's got a lot of complexity. This somewhat ridiculous aside is something that will stick with me for a while.

I hope the poor old man who has to join Cross Guild now is well taken care of.
