Who will be the Next Strawhat?

Some people here and there on the internet have made a numerical/mathematical approach of predicting the last Straw hat member, seeing as Oda likes to work with those things in his manga as well
Oh ok.

Yeah about that. The fact that Oda is loving playing with the numbers in the series (besides a few exceptions) is a myth. A myth created by the fan and fuelled by Oda himself on different occasion. Making your fan look at everything you can write is a testimony of Oda masterfull technique. But its just a huge myth. At least until there are compelling data proving that Oda is indeed playing with numbers.

Oda loves his puns, but we must stay careful with the way we theorize because the line between rationnal theorizing and straight up complostism mindset as been crossed far too many times by the One Piece community.

So no, I won't include that in my Pillars.
 
After this chapter I can say to you that the paw paw fruit or "hands of liberation" must be on the crew. The next member gonna be the new user of that fruit
2 = ni
9 = kyu

Nikyu nikyu no mi = hands of liberation
Kuma gonna die in egg head island. The fruit gonna reborn and the last nakama will eat it

Oh, you mean the image for the paw paw fruit? Because that's just a regular ass cat.

It seems the Paw Paw Fruit has been double downed related to felines.
I bet it's a leopard.
:gonope:
I bet it's a jaguar.
:goyea:

It's not a myth, it's a more accurate source of predictions than your pillars. Gorowase has been in bounties like whitebeard, Roger, big mom, Kaido so it let's us predict that Luffy's bounty will be prolly a 5.656B bounty which is a Gomu pun and is slighty above Roger. And that works slighty with Zoro aswell.

Luffy is constantly associated with 56 because of gorowase, from heights to covger pages to shirts he uses.

There's also a mini theory that the final members of the SH will number 5656, to make a big Gomu gomu pun, because when you take in account all of the SH and the Grand fleet. Theres 5640 members of the grand fleet with the addition of 10-11 SH, so you're just missing 4-5-6 honorable SH or allies to make luffy's crew a big gomu gomu reference.

Not to mention ironically, for instance Carrot being associated with 8 for chapter 888 for the moon lion pun. And chapter 988 was about the minks again


So youre actually going against a prediction system based on numbers that's objectively better than yours.

There are currently 152 canon Devilfruits and you can only do that game with a few of them, as not every fruit's name can be converted into 2 numbers or even one - the odds of it being able to do that with a fruit is unlikely.

And even if a generous 30 % of all those DF-names were to fit Oda's game, it would still be incredibly improbable that every crew member on the Sunny is able to fit this game perfectly without overlapping in numbers. The Gorowase we are looking upon is so specific in it's rules, that there are just a few of those fruits, which are fitting the general requirements. I would call it statistically/mathematically inadvisable to dismiss it like that.

Now with only the numbers 2 and 9 left, the choice is even more narrowed. The few only characters, we know are currently fitting the remaining numbers are:
- Who's Who
- Kuma
- Monet (deceased - but her DF is still somewhere and was maybe eaten by someone)
- Lucci
- Kinemon
- maybe someone else x 2

That makes 7 candidates including the buffer of 2. The percentage for 7 out of 152 is 4.61 %. Statistically it drastically diminishes the candidates for the last open seat on the Sunny dramatically and would even be more conclusive than for example - having a dream. You could even put it to the 5 golden rules of yours, if you like.

Holy fuck I never heard about the Straw Hat Grand Fleet number theory. So, we have 10 current Straw Hats, and 6 characters who are welcome to join the crew (Vivi, Karoo, Yamato, Momo, and Kinemon). I think Kinemon's going to die at some point, dude has too many death flags, leaving room for Carrot.

Then any other allies like Law will be just that; allies. Wano isn't part of the Straw Hats crew, but, is their territory. This allows other allies to fight with the crew while keeping the 5656 number scheme. Awesome.

Those are called puns. What I deny is the foreshadowing the fan are thinking Oda is doing with numbers. I deny it simply because there is no clear evidences of that.

What is the pun here ?


And chapter 988 was about the minks again
Simple coincidence

Its not better than my system, its worse in everyway, it doesn't predict a thing. Why ? Because this is a complotist mindset based system that that is not retroactive and is not used in prediction but in case of coincidental results. In other words it is proven right only when it aligns with a bias prediction system AFTER the release.

Ex. Saying 804 was the introduction of Carrot therefore 1104 will be the reintroduction of Carrot is just pure bullshiting and nothing here is based on actual logical reasonning and relevant data.


There are currently 152 canon Devilfruits and you can only do that game with a few of them, as not every fruit's name can be converted into 2 numbers or even one - the odds of it being able to do that with a fruit is unlikely.
When you search, you find. Basic logical mistake
That's a the same mindset complotists have.

All of this is completely irrelevant.

Are you sure you want to dismiss statistics? You can, but I for myself are grounding my analysis on Oda's Gorowase and say Lucci will join.

Let's see whose methodical approach is going to be the best in predicting the 11th SH. And please, don't come at me crying or denying that the Gorowase was not a method after which you can predict a SH and that it was all pure coincidence after Oda makes pigeon guy join. The Gorowase is the main reason I chose him in the first place.

If I think about it, I find it strange that you have not even looked up the passage of the SBS, in which Oda comments on it. If you were interested in changing and finding new pillars, you would at least be interested in that, right?
 
Another detail to remember is that this isn't the first time that a character in One Piece has compared the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi to that of a Cat before! Robin made the same comparison way back in the day.



Agreed. And funny enough, this would also help solve another potential issue that would arise if/when Vivi rejoins the Straw Hats; how to enable Vivi to catch up to the rest of the crew in power after staying home and focusing on politics for the last two years.
Yes
