Well, like I just said, Dragon would be a far more logical candidate that fits what we understand Emperors to be.
Buggy would be an open joke we aren’t meant to take seriously, so I’d be okay with that.
I’d also argue we simply did not need any more new Emperors because the balance of the world is meant to be completely fucked right now. That’s why two Yonko went down and the Warlords were disbanded
And basically if they are giving it to Kid and Law they’d be as well giving it to Mihawk. He’s always been disqualified before because he has no crew. Well, Kid and Law might as well have no crews given how weak they are, and Mihawk could solo the Kid or Heart Pirates, so might as well give it to him if we’re dropping the standards so low.
Dragon is a Revolutionary, not a Pirate, this already disqualifies him to be an Emperor.
He's an already well-known entity, with very different interests than controlling the seas.
World Govt. know this well and apparently never considered him an option. What should change now?
Buggy would obviously be an open joke, that's why I mentioned him.
But the fact that you'd rather be ok with him than, let's say, Kidd doesn't seem logical to me.
Before this chapter I've always said that this war was preparing a 50/50 scenario:
- Option 1 ---> Kaido & Linlin fall, Emperor system falls with them and New World becomes a huge mess og Great Pirates without real control
- Option 2 ---> Kaido & Linlin fall, Emperor system is preserved but someone has to come in and cover those empty thrones
So I understand what you are coming from but seems like Oda went with Option 2, so now the question is: who is more suited to do it?
The point of Mihawk is that he has nothing aside of his impressive strenght: no crew, no territorie, no interest in it, no conquering objective.
Also should be common sense that, if Mihawk will get another position, it'll be related to the Red-Hair Pirates as an ally.
You could say that some of Mihawk's traits align with Law, and I agree, but the difference is that Law is an ascending pirate who just defeated an Emperor, unlike MIhawk.
If you look at it on paper, these are the options:
- Option Buggy ---> A joke, as we agreed. Big, estabilished, crew, some territories under his control, but no power/strenght of his own.
- Option Mihawk ---> One desert island of his own, with some babboons as followers, huge power/strenght, a raft. That's about it.
- Option Law ---> A small crew that will certainly grow through recruitment, big power/strenght, just defeated an Emperor after being already a redundant name in the New World.
- Option Kidd ---> A crew with an estabilished base of operations, different ships and connection in the underworld (just like Law's will certainly grow through recruitment), big power/strenght, command on someone like Killer, just defeated an Emperor after being already a redundant name in the New World.
Looking at the datas I've a pretty good idea of who the best option/s is/are...
