During the frank conversation, Inaki seemed about to reveal something about the character Crocodile. Before he could reveal more, Emily quickly intervened, signaling him to keep quiet.

Let’s find out the origin of this Theory
Ivankov connection
The noise starts in the Impel Down section. Emperor Ivankov, wielding the power to change one’s sex, blackmails Crocodile with hints that reveal the former Lord’s mysterious past. Fans deduced: Is Crocodile a woman?
Androgynous design
Oda’s SBS sketch of the Younger Crocodile presents a two-dimensional design that is easily interpreted as male or female. The ambiguity doesn’t end there. Crocodile’s Seraphim also displays an androgynous style.
Luffy’s lost mother?
An outrageous but popular speculation is that Crocodile may be Luffy’s estranged mother. While this is an interesting fantasy idea for fans, there is no denying that the buzz surrounding it is still very noisy.

Furthermore, the Netflix adaptation has always focused on Crocodile, aligning her with central characters like Shanks, Dragon, and Mihawk. While her backstory remains largely unexplored, this growing attention suggests that she is much more than what you see.
