Yo great call on the Vegapunk memory plan! And especially the Shaka observation, I feel like I haven’t heard anyone mention connecting the dots between this flashback and his words to Dragon about his impending demise Also a small aside about the significance of the rope in the previous chapter, I wonder if anything will come of the title/logo as well since one of the translations for “hitotsunagi” (aka one piece) is the rope uniting or connecting all men ~something to that effect
Congratulations on correct prediction! Also, I feel like everyone is ignoring Vegapunk's mention on preserving the cloud creating building. I feel like it's gonna have some meaning in the future, yet noone even mentions it.
I have made a few observations and made a few theories regarding this chapter: The fact that Stella suspects Lilith as being the prime suspect gave the idea that even the world's smartest man has trouble isolating the aspects of a human soul, he might have thought that isolating his aspect would allow him to utilize them while minimizing the risks, such as isolating "evil" would make her predictable (as he only need to worry about her rather than all of the satelites) and isolating "greed" from "evil" would make keep her desires in check. The end result shows that "greed" can generate her own "evil" and "evil" can generate her own "greed" (remember how Lilith wanted to use her mechanized sea beasts to rob Pirates?), "Wrath" would sacrifice herself and become a hero in the end, it is almost as if either Vegapunk is unable to separate and isolate the human soul so precisely, or that each isolated aspect has regenerated parts their are missing, each aspect is slowly becoming a brand new individual completely indenpendent from the original. The truth is the human soul is beyond the understanding of the world's greatest mind. In my opinion the biggest reveal this chapter is actually that Stella must have a separate "brain" for him to function even when disconnected from Punk Records, it is also why to wipe his memories he put his body into the machine, meaning his memories are within the Stella body itself and not in his original brain, possibly bringing us the final and biggest twist of the arc: Vegapunk lives, and we have never met him, because he is the Punk Records itself. If Stella has a separate "brain" just like every other satellite and thus able to exist autonomously from the Punk Records, it would mean that they are separate beings from Punk Records, with each of them being copies of the real Vegapunk, Stella being the direct copy, the satellites being partial copies each of an aspect of him. That revelation would give a whole new meaning to Saka's question about what "death" really means for "beings" such as themselves. That question alone gives the very possibility that none of the Punks knew about this fact, the real Vegapunk has been locked in the upper hemisphere storage for years hidden from even his copies' eyes, for even them believe that Stella is the original. If it was unintentional due to the process of the separation, I can't even image Punk Records' despair due to being conscious yet isolated from the outside world. If it was all by design then Vegapunk is a much more devious man than we ever know. Either way, what would he do now that the WG is for sure to recover him from the storage, any options will massively affect the world at large.
Using the ruroni kenshin mangaka’s design even after all of this definitely brings a sour spot to this chapter for me. I wish Oda could just cut ties after the horrific stuff he’s done.

Bro! Plz do videos covering all the chapter cover stories! People who watch the anime have no idea of all the extra content they are missing! 🫶🏼✌🏼
