They’ve mentioned several times how they cared about maintaining the balance of the world. The existence of pirates is not without benefit to them.

Nah it’s not confirmed. We only know that Warcury is more durable than Kaido.

The balance between the navy and the Yonko. The Gorosei would easily tip that balance.
I mean they're fighting Awakened Luffy so they're at least as strong, and they don't take any damage. Kind of like a buu situation with their durability.
She's Shanks/Buggy material for the Straw Hat crew. There's really nowhere else for her to go now that she's got a target on her back as large as she does.

The Yonko is part of the balance that they want to maintain lol.
Their existence is a good thing.

Maybe, are the islands sinking or is the water level rising?
It'd also explain why the Seatrain was important enough to pardon Tom.

Based on context clues, I'd say water level rising.
The Gorosei are insistent on aquiring as much of the Mother Flame as possible, which implies it's requirement towards enacting their plan for the ''great cleansing''. One use of the Mother Flame on Lulucia was said to cause the sea level to increase by one meter.
So we can at least speculate that they are planning to successively use it across multiple islands, thereby causing the ocean to eventually flood the entire world (Marijoa left unharmed due to its altitude)

Maybe Uranus.
Although I always thought Pluton was supposed to be the vehicle of destruction. A bit strange that 2 out of 3 of the ancient weapons offer the same results.

Yeah after reading more into it this is it. Yeah and the only other clear use of mother flame/Uranus is Enies lobby which is right next to one piece Venice.
Also the Noah's Arc great flood symbolism is pretty clear.

I’m telling you, we are at a point in the story where Oda is able to finally execute the ideas he’s had hidden in the back of his head since Pre-TS lol.

Oh this has clearly been planned a very long time. Not one of the things like Haki where it's unclear of when it was conceptualized fully.
Like this is the kind of reveal that gets people to re-read the entire series.

This chapter basically confirmed it.
