Stats don't matter. AP don’t matter. Oda ended up putting Kid/Law at the same pedestal as Luffy. He will have to continue doing it. Otherwise, there is no new generation, only Luffy and his friends. Those three will continue to be portrayed as the top 3 pirates till eternity.
Thank god for WSS title. Now, I am waiting for Oda to define WSS, as it stands, I don't have much hope.
