Okay, this chapter made Vegapunk a lot more admirable in how he handled the situation imo. While there are a few more issues I still see with him (like him not telling Bonney that she had absolute command over the pacifista earlier and privately to better ensure her safety), his actions and preparations in the wake of the Egghead Incident were astounding, especially when you considered how little time he had and the amount of pressure he must've felt with knowing that the entirety of the World Government wanted to snuff him out.
It also made Sanji's poor handling of Vegapunk's protection (like leaving Vegapunk by himself near Saturn and Kizaru, or failing to stop Kizaru from killing Vegapunk) somewhat more understandable for me, since it seemed like Sanji was conflicted with trying to protect Vegapunk or leave him to his death.
Some minor notes:
Vegapunk's message to himself was trolling at another level imo.
Also, I found it funny how S-Snake is trying to wake up the marines just to go after the Strawhats (especially Luffy), despite her targets should be the Strawhats, All Vegapunks (minus York), Cp0, and number of other individuals who York had ordered to them to attack.
Nami's worried reaction to Luffy is both adorable and hilarious.
All in all a good chapter imo.

Not a good chapter imo. Yes, there were bits we didn't know yet but I don't think it warrents a whole chapter about Vegapunk talking. It was a bit tired to flip the pages to see another one full of him yapping. But Egg head was really good so I don't mind it. Now hoping Elbaf is around the same lenght and not Wano and Dressrosa lenght.
Hmm, I don't get the great idea of wiping your own memories. Sure, they wanted to avoid alerting York about their plan, so they stopped syncing. But after the mind-wipe they don't know that there is a betrayer, and instantly give themselves such a strange letter. Surely WP won't keep such important info from his other selves without a serious reason, right? Wouldn't that result in exactly what they're trying to avoid?

Interesting, I guess that cloud factory got cut off in the transmission so he wasn't able to share his solution against the impending crisis the world has to deal with in the future. I bet Ceasar and Judge is going to do something after this. Egghead island is wrecked but the place is still a treasure trove for the right minds.
Even in death, I troll the world government - Vegapunk
I think it's to increase the success of their plan. York and Saturn could have gotten a whiff of their plans if Vegapunk still remembers what they are cooking. Much so with Saturn as he is the only one in the world government who knows him more than his inventions. As for York thou, a bit hard to tell but with how much advantage she already has, she can easily lower the chances of the transmission from succeeding.
And I'm pretty sure he's not yet done.

That's a good point. But we can just assume Vegapunk didn't share the letter to others whose memories didn't get erased.
Honestly I feel like they could've come up with better plan, but otherwise I find it cool twist and it fits with Egghead and Vegapunk vibe.
My only issue is that why they don't just neutralize or even kill York but I suppose the three Vegapunks are too nice for that? Feel like it need someone like Lilith or York to actually want to kill.

If York can upload fake memories, why can't those three?
That could take more time than they had available to generate convincing ones.
