The end of One Piece is approaching, as are the rumors of a huge final battle against the World Government. Luffy will have to face Imu, but he won't be alone. The Yonko has a fleet and allies from all walks of life. In addition to his companions, he will probably also be able to count on former adversaries, including 5 in particular.
#1 Katakuri
Katakuri is a proud man, loyal to his captain and his family. Since Big Mom's defeat at Wano Kuni, a battle he wasn't present at, one might think he's been seeking revenge. It's worth remembering that his fight against Luffy opened his eyes to many things. He didn't seem bothered by the fact that the hero wanted to defeat Big Mom - even though, in the end, it wasn't him who did it - especially since he has a lot of respect for him. Now, he's probably the captain of Big Mom's crew, and must be a better leader, as he's much more attached to his family than she was. Speaking of which, Pudding is currently Blackbeard's prisoner. We can therefore imagine that Katakuri joins Luffy at the end to save her.
#2 Gecko Moria
If we had to name an underrated villain from One Piece, it would be Gecko Moria. Thriller Bark is certainly not the most popular arc among fans, but its antagonist has won their hearts over time. He is a pirate who has committed many atrocities, but who has also suffered many setbacks. Overall, he remains very attached to his crew, as evidenced by his relationship with the late Absalom. Currently, all we know about him is that Koby and Perona freed him from the prison on Hive Island. It remains to be seen whether he will join SWORD or even the Cross Guild. In any case, with an ally like Perona, close to Zoro and Mihawk, we can easily think that Moria will join Luffy at the end to help him defeat the World Government.
#3 The Cross Guild
Composed of Buggy, Mihawk, and Crocodile, the Cross Guild is destined, at least for the clown, to find the One Piece. Each has a different relationship with Luffy, but what is certain is that they have the same goal: to defeat the World Government. The Cross Guild, which places bounties on the heads of the Marines, could very well do the same for Imu and his subordinates, thus encouraging all the pirates to join the cause. That said, regarding Laugh Tale and One Piece, nothing prevents a battle from breaking out between the Cross Guild and the Mugiwara. We've long dreamed of a fight between Mihawk and Zoro.
#4 Ener
Skypiea is an arc that many have skipped even though it is one of the most important. As for Ener, he leads the Spaceys on the Moon. This star remains very enigmatic today, but seems to play an important role in the lore of One Piece, particularly through its potential link with Nika. Indeed, according to some theories, the Sun God comes from the Moon. Returning to Enel, he would undoubtedly be surprised to discover that Luffy is considered a "deity," he who sees himself as such. Their reunion could take place if the Moon turns out to be an important place. If Imu were to covet it, Enel could join the Mugiwara to protect it and defend his lands.
#5 Members of the Navy
While it seems logical that pirates would join Luffy, it is less so for the Navy. However, several of its members could switch sides. Fujitora, Sengoku, Sentomaru, or even Kizaru, given his behavior on Egghead, could turn their backs on the World Government. However, there remains the case of Aokiji. A member of Blackbeard's crew, he could betray him, but for now, his motives remain rather unclear.
