Be prepared guys....for this chapter contains so much information that it will blow your mind!
Starting of, the news about Luffy's bounty has reached the Revolutionary army, with Sabo laughing with that Luffy-kinda like smile XDD not sure what Dragon is feeling though, he doesn't show much expression about it...
After descending the Whale, the three retainers find themselves in tears from the look of Zou... try hard they might, but they are well aware what their friends minks had to go through and suffer. Especially Raizou feels guilty for what has happened.
Nami and Robin started deciphring the Poneglyph; it appears this Poneglyph is far from like the other ones the crew has encountered, because this one - together with 3 others - are guides to that very location: Raftel!
Of course, Luffy being Luffy thought there are 4 Raftels when there are 4 Poneglyphs, right? XD
From all 4 Poneglyphs, 1 is on Zou, second's location is unknown and the other two are in possession of pirates: Kaido and Big Mom.
After the mention of these two pirates though, some crewmembers started to feel weak xD Luffy is a bit annoyed by their reaction, because he planed to fight them anyway ^^"""

According to Neko, they don't need the actual Poneglyphs to know the destination; the single copy of it is enough, since it's just the text they need, not the stone itself.
Usopp feels relieved to know this, though Luffy is pretty disappointed; he was really looking forward to beating all them Yonkos; soon after, they get into a small fight because of this xD
Neko then warns Robin about the dangers she will have to face because every big shot will come after her and her knowledge of the Poneglyphs. However, she just smiles and states her confidence in her comrades ^^
Which just sends them all blushing xD though as someone who isn't affected by praise that easily, Zoro is the only one not seen blushing and exclaiming he will protect Robin. Even so, I think he would help her if the times came to it.
This news about Road Poneglyphs is not all there is to it - the secret behind the making of Poneglyphs themselves has also been revealed - apparently, the Kouzuki family is the one behind it all ^^
While the knowledge of how to read Poneglyphs is passed down in Kouzuki family, Momo never had the chance to learn of it...
..because his father is no longer alive - Oden was executed by the shougun and Kaido in Wano country.
I don't know whether to feel sad or cry at this part, because even in this situation, Oda managed to pull a pun on Oden's name...

Not only that; Kaido is still occupying Wano, which just means he is either controlling shougun or he is partners with him. Either way, it seems like both shougun and Kaido will be the ones Straw Hats will face in Wano.
Of course, Oden's affiliation with Poneglyphs might have been one of the reasons why he ended up this why. However, after listening carefully about this matter, Zoro still asked the Wano residents about what their boss did to end up this way, because there must be a link to Oden's death and them being targeted, too.
I doooubt anyone saw this blow coming xD now, we know name of another member of the infamous Roger crew. Oden was most probably, no, surely the one who pinpointed the four locations leading to Raftel and was also the one to read the Poneglyphs during Roger's journey.
._____________.
As if there weren't many mysteries about One Piece already.... I feel like we got answers to one question, but hundreds more resurfaced from it xD
With the current development, it seems like Kaido's arc and Wano's arc might be fused together.... not that I am gonna argue, because I kind of expected it.
Robin and Nami's roles also became even more significant for Luffy to reach his dream:
Robin's knowledge has now become even more valuable than before, because she will have to read out Road Poneglyphs in order to determine the exact position of Raftel.
Nami's role as a navigator also became more important - she will have to pinpoint the exact location of those 4 places that will guide to Raftel. May I remind you, that is no way a small feat, because I expect some kind of riddle they need to solve in order to really know the location...besides, they would also need to know where that location is on a map of the Grand Line (that is so batshit crazy).
Anyway, we are in for a wild ride... and these two women will have a lot of work piled on their desks as it seems ^^
Also, this analysis came in in the comments that I think is worth looking in ^^
