What exactly are you worried about? We literally have Dadan and Iceberg in this chapter. Hiding Smoker and Tashigi seems to be very deliberate on his part.
I’m worried that maybe Oda just doesn’t care to develop Smoker and Tashigi anymore and that what we got in Punk Hazard is all the spotlight they will get.
We did see Dadan and Iceberg, but that was just them reacting to other characters. I don’t want that for the Marine duo. I want them to actually be relevant characters.
But after not seeing them for years, Tashigi being irrelevant during the mission to Pirate Island is disheartening. And having a specific number of Vice Admirals explicitly called out for the Egghead mission and Smoker not being among them just adds another nail to that coffin.
I have complete trust in Oda getting Smoker and Tashigi into the mix. Just as I do that Magellan will still be back in the story.
They will be back. I owe you beers by the end of the story if this doesnt happen.
