Regarding the Figarland connection, I'm thinking it's possibly Uta's mother's family.
I checked One Piece Red dialogue again and the Elder know that Shanks is the father of Uta. But they only assume that Uta might be a Figarland. So that kinda leaves Shanks out of that family. They maybe don't know who the mother is but only have a guess - and that guess is of the Figarland family(?).
In any case it's a crazy connection. His design is super cool too.
Do you remember the flying ship that sucked up Bege right after timeskip? Do you think that might be the Mother Flame?
Per usual great chapter, will be a long break and I bet we will be back at egghead.
Really interesting that Oda chose for them to now know where Sabo was, but very cruelly choose Lulusia. Definitely gives insight into their evil!
"Mother Flame" seems too related to the "eternal flame" concept (an eternal power source) which isn't only in one piece, and also seems to follow the same naming pattern as a "mother dough".
I think it's likely a power source, that is either being directly weaponized (similar to how a nuclear reactor, our closest technology to an "eternal flame" could be weaponized), or is being used to power some advanced weaponry (Uranus?).
