The kids Kuma saved in his youth later became members of Bonney’s crew!

I just noticed a detail in Chapter 1096 that may have gone unnoticed by many. Are the kids Kuma saved in his youth the same guys that eventually went on to become Bonney’s crewmates?

The one with the spiky hair as a child has the spiky beard as an adult (he even still has suspenders) and the one with the mohawk still has a mohawk.

Maybe they chose to pay back Kuma’s kindness by protecting his daughter?

It seems that even in the margins, Oda keeps cooking.
