That's not how the Triangle Attack works...
Just had two thoughts regarding Kuma sending the Strawhats away on Sabaody:

1. Do you think he was aware that Hancock was a former slave? Did he send Luffy to Amazon Lily knowing that his personality would lead to her allying with him?
2. It's funny to think that Kuma sent Luffy away to protect him from the New World's power level not knowing he would break into Impel Down and nearly die in the process.

Vergil has had sex and his son had to get a prosthetic hand before he could even start to forgive him for it. Dante has definitely heard of sex but if you ask him to describe the logistics of the act beyond the vaguest terms he would Royal Guard the question and steal your pizza in an elaborate motorcycle dine and dash.
I can vividly imagine Usopp having a wild take when Dante turns around to show a hundred swords and spears stuck in his back.

if the strawhats ever become a thing after the series ends then yeah its gonna be usopp/nami and franky/robin

Nah, Usopp/Nami have chemistry but as friends and nothing more. And Robin is way more into Jinbei than she would ever be into Franky, back in Fishman Island she said Jinbei was handsome or attractive if something similar.

Knowing what we do, yeah it seems pretty likely that Kuma somehow found out Hancock and her sisters were slaves and sent Luffy to Amazon Lily to learn how to use haki* becuase it’s an island in Paradise full of haki users.

*said plan got usurped by Rayleigh going “drat this kid is cool, I wanna put him on a horrible death trap island so he can learn how to fight good”

And Luffy's gonna die without accepting the treatment because three weeks of solid bed-rest would, in fact, kill him anyway. But he'll brag about how much his doctor rules until his lungs grow dense enough to absorb and crush his skeleton through gravity.

When did the Straw Hats start being taken seriously by the normal/pirate world? I remember in the beginning everyone kept laughing at Luffy whenever he declared his ambition to become the Pirate King, but I think it was after the Enies Lobby raid that people started taking the Straw Hats/Luffy seriously, especially by the timeskip and return to Sabaody.

Granted, the Yonkou still dismissed them and the other members of the Worst Generation as upstarts, but we all know how that turned out in the end.

Probably post time-skip? Even post Enies Lobby you had Moria not take him seriously and tbh even Dofy saying he'd take him seriously didn't really take him seriously

Enies Lobby had him be silently on the WG’s radar, Sabaody immediately into Marineford was an absolute rocket for his presence on the world stage.

He was sharing the spotlight with Whitebeard and three marine admirals were trying to make him a corpse in front of thousands, it’s honestly crazy his bounty wasn’t higher after that.

Beating Crocodile definitely is the point where the WG has him on a "keep on eye on" list.

Sabaody had Kidd do a little speech about how up to them everyone laughed(and then was brutally killed) when he said he'd be King. Which made him realize that after that point everybody was going to be serious trying to get the One Piece

So The New World is probably about when people stop laughing and start replying "same, but it's gonna be me".

Marineford was definitely a turning point considering that he started the arc with everyone expecting him to die instantly and ended the arc as the guy that the entire war was being fought over because of how terrified the Navy was of his potential.

I feel like Luffy "beating" Garp at Marineford should be a big deal and raised Luffy's notoriety, especially now that we've seen what he can do when he's not throwing a fight.

It wasn't a big deal because it was extremely obvious that Garp was throwing the fight. I don't think many people were fooled.

IIRC, someone mentioned a page or two ago that we would get a drop this week since the next chapter was already in the can but we're still going to be stuck with a multi-week break after that.
