@access-timeco A scenario I could imagine would be:
Big Mom is getting impatient with Pudding -> tells a Sweet General to seek the Man with the Burn Scar (if he's supposed to be someone who can read Poneglyphs, that's also how Kid could have learned about him), alternatively it could be the Sweet General heading for Three Eyed Tribe Island or wherever they are -> Kid intercepts him/her, steals the rubbing of the Poneglyph.

Still somewhat careless of course, but at this point I'm not considering it plot conveniance if the BM pirates are incompetent, it's just who they are.

Whatever scenario of Kidd getting the poneglyph from a Sweet commander, is just too convenient and stupid. It’s just Oda going the easiest way to make Kidd relevant. Apparently he just said, I don’t have time to think too much crap.

I have seen some people say that Big Mom pirates are a joke and this Kidd story just adds to it but the truth is that if you look at all the yonkos and their organization, Big Mom’s should be or should have been the best by far. Her main crew is constituted by her kids, many of whom are veterans in their 40s and with powerful fruits. She also had complete control of her territory unlike Kaido. Has she committed stupid mistakes, well other than hiring Bege, I can’t think of any. Luffy and a couple of strawhats besting her at WCI should not be seen as incompetence. Luffy’s the MC and he was gonna do that to anybody and he really had to struggle even with all the luck/help he could muster.

@realtenchu Don't worry. Kuzan will probably be the one to save Koby- revealing that Kuzan is the leader of "sword".

You still have not answered the most important question. Where was Koby when the strawhats fell at SA?. Where was he when kizaru and the pacifista surrounded them. Where was he when the westfold fell?.

Didn't expect Law to land all of gis awakened attacks on BB either. Also really seems like BB doesn't have conquerors haki and won't be resisting Law's amputate or even shambles. If Van Augur is occupied then BB can be teleported in the sea.

I heard a theory that Blackbeard doesn’t have conqueror’s haki because of way he has risen. I really hope this is true. There must be a price to pay for not challenging the powers head to head.

So the ancient kingdom was advanced, what about the rest of the world?. Was the ancient kingdom helping, controlling, developing the rest of the world or they were just hogging all the advanced tech for themselves?.

What about the devil fruits, did they exist at that time, were they a creation of the ancient kingdom or just part of the natural world?. We know that the nika fruit existed at least during the void century.

The world seems to have gone backwards and more magical. The celestial dragons, the victors of the void century indeed wrote the history but for all their power and knowledge, they just can’t completely bring the world to heel. They can’t even control the devil fruits. 800 years should be enough to at least round up and store the most powerful and useful fruits.
