Everything in the series seems to be gearing up and are about to experience a forward momentum. The Zou arc has already released 12 episodes and the show seems to indicate that big things are coming up in future episodes.
Sanji Tries To Free His Friends From Capone
"One Piece" Episode 764 shows the effort Sanji took to free his friends from inside the prison body of Bege Capone. He never expected to meet his crewmates in this situation. This episode also showed Sanji saying his farewell to his crewmates and writing a letter to them and the captain.
He will be able to help his friends escape but he will hold Cesar as a hostage. This will force Bege to let his crewmates escape. In his desire to free them, and in desperation, he tosses them out. Outside of Bege's body, the crewmates will be safe with Minks who will protect them.
But Sanji stayed behind since he intended that he and Caesar will be brought to the island of Big Mom. He is planning to settle his problems with his family and return to his crew when all things are already settled.
Luffy Wanted To Follow Sanji
In "One Piece" Episode 764, Luffy declares that he wants to follow Sanji in the home of Big Mom. He wanted to ask Sanji what his plans are because the crew had some disagreements. They really don't know if Sanji is really intent on coming back for them. It was Brook who really doubted since he is very familiar with the reputation of the Vinsmokes.
But Sanji has shared a lot of experiences with his crewmates. He has been with them through many highs and lows. This is probably the reason why the safety and well-being of his crew are very important to him. The present situation will show his comrades if he really is concerned about them.
