Also we have been shown [ vaguely ] what the remaining yonkou look like so I doubt Black Beard will join. Also a yonkou with as small a crew as BB's is unlikely.

I don't know so much about the 7 deadly sin theme, the warlords are animal based as far as I'm concerned.

You may be on to something about the Admirals though. Lava Lava fruit? That would be cool since Ace never did anything too creative with his Mera Mera fruit. Military power over fire that knows what they're doing with it? Very Dangerous.

His father uses guns so i can see him getting one sometime in the series. I can also see the two of them squaring off at the end.

Johnny and Yosaku are easliy on my list.

I also often wonder what happened to Gin, and even if Zeff opened a restaurant on the Grand Line.

Peackock String Slashers much? Actually was a cool weapon, especially her Run Back move.

I really doubt Hogback was introduced so Ace can be revived. Why would Oda kill Ace just to bring him right back? I think thats kind of cheap.

I also think theres more to the end of the Ace and BB fight than we know.

Besides, it never said Ace was dead, or even defeated, it was, however, implied that he lost. Still doesn't mean it's true.

–--------------

All it showed was Ace's hat, which had been off his head for a few pages before the climax. It implied his loss but even Luffy has been defeated and left for dead before by Crocodile.

I think that Ace is alive, however very unhappy.

Golden Sun reference FTW

As far as beating a logia goes, i think it would be cool if zoro faught one and just had that logias weakness. I know this wont happen but an example is if Zoro faught Ace while it was raining. Wouldnt that even things out?

Chopper broke out of Kumadori's holds by changing form though..so doesnt that apply to being caught by Robin. The arms might not go away but the holds wouldnt be the same at all/would break.
