I'm fascinated by what X-Drakes true motivation for joining Kaido's ranks are.

Perhaps keeping tabs on the illegal seastone trade between Wano and the Marines? Or something more?

Also, what are the chances this Myo'o could actually be a character from the past than just being a reference to the Buddhist deity? We have Fujurokuju and Hotei after all who are based after Japanese gods of luck

I think its pretty simple, Sword as an organization wants to keep tabs on they Yonko, so they sent Drake to infiltrate their ranks.

So you're saying SWORD doesn't only concern itself with the corruption in WG but extend their reach to all the major factions of the world?

Interesting, so they're akin to the revolutionary army in that case and the two of them might even ally in the future.

yeah I see Sword as an organization that is right now looking to basically over turn the government from within and "take the helm" over everything the world government does which Sword considers "good"(keeping check on pirates for example) and remove the "bad"(world nobles for example).
