Now that Jinbei is the 9th nakama
Yamato and Carrot will be 10th and 11th

Luffy might get another person
Fishman, Jinbei
Mink, Carrot
Wano citizen, Yamato

... He now needs a Skypean or Giant to join the crew or some other dude who's from NW.

Luffy will have 11 or 12 crewmates .
He is Joyboy the saviour,
 
A giant in the crew would be great but the problem is its size to fit in the Sunny, so it has to have something like the Small-Small fruit or something like that, it would be the Ant-Man of the crew haha
Post automatically merged:

In reality I think the crew should be complete at the end of Wano, in the next arc (Elbaf?) It should be a more intimate story, the crew should be the focus, unite them and give them an importance that has not been seen since pre timeskip to finally face them against Blackbeard in Laugh Tale.

I still stan on 4 each sea theory.

1st of each sea is monster. In NW is Jinbe
2nd is female. It's either Carrot or Yamato. If Yamato take this spot then goodbye to Carrot.
3rd is someone who has skill in crafting basically and leader of certain group. I can see Yamato will take this spot because she's daughter of yonko and maybe she got her own squad in BP. And if she's wano citizen maybe she got that particular crafting skill. If Yamato take this spot then welcome Carrot or Vivi take 2nd spot by wildcard.
4th is someone who acted like a gentleman/nobel and has pervy tendencies. I can see Momo, Kinemon here. Bellamy is welcome too. Bon Clay is very welcome. Or maybe someone from Elbaf (not really digging that).

Like I've been saying, I think if the 4 per sea theory is true, it's Carrot, Yamato, and Kinemon, which fits this perfectly.

Honestly I'm not sure about Kinemon, as much as I love the character. I feel like Yamato would represent a Wano citizen all things considered. I can see Carrot and Yamato because they actually fit with Jinbe in terms of their country/species believing that some day a savior will come and bring the dawn. If the 4 per sea theory is legit, then I'd rather someone like Vivi come back in (who certainly seems to have some role to play in the end). That way we'd have:

- Monster Quartet: Zoro, Sanji, Jinbe and Yamato
- Mid Quartet: Robin, Franky, Brook and Carrot
- Weak Quartet: Nami, Usopp, Chopper and Vivi

Falling in Luffy's crew by the EoS.

I don't see how Vivi could possibly be useful as a Strawhat at this point. A lot of people say they don't see Kinemon, but it's worth noting that I couldn't possibly give less of a shit about him and have a lot of other characters I'd rather see, and I still think he's going to join. The last chapter is what convinced me.

I feel like we can say the same thing about Kin, except he literally brings nothing new to the table in the crew. Carrot and Yamato at least have unique fighting styles and have open curiosity for adventuring, this we can agree on im sure. The thing about Kinemon is the fact that he's:

- Entirely redundant to Zoro, Brook AND Sanji in many ways (fighting style, personality, etc).
- Has barely shown off his foxfire technique outside of Punk Hazard. Zoro has expressed the desire to learn this technique btw.
- No viable dream or desire to adventure
- Is bound by serving Momo as a retainer
- Has yet to see his wife again but is supposed to leave her after they reuinite?


The idea behind Vivi is her current place in the story. Compare:

- Has had a desire to be a pirate. Still daydreams about it. Is constantly shown hence forth.

- The story is putting her in a situation where Alabasta may be in a crisis. If Im is openly looking for her, then the safest place she could be is with Luffy. 2 SHF members were present at the reverie. So was Sabo. All 3 have Luffys Vivre Card.

- Not only that but her fighting style is actually unique. She doesn't have to be strong, especially not compared to what we have already, but there's no reason to assume she's not stronger than she has been in 2 years.


Imo, Kinemons story ends at Wano (maybe continues as an ally post War.), while Vivi's is now continuing in a very important way. By this point I dont think a role is necessary. Hell, if Yamato joins, his role might not even really be specified. Im at the point where I dont think Carrot needs to be either. It's not like these patterns MUST continue.

Point in case, I dont believe the idea that Kin complimenting Luffy has to mean hes a future strawhat.

All of that makes total sense actually. I just think Vivi would definitely have to be at least as strong as the weak trio. She doesn't have to be a monster or even a mid tier, but considering she had no useful position on the ship when they escorted her to Alabasta, she has to find SOME other way to be of value if she's joining the crew as a full member. She'd just be dead weight otherwise.

Totally. We'll see how everything develops as we move forward through Wano. The good news is the further we get through Wano, the bigger picture we'll be able to see in terms of who will join after Jinbe or not. Hopefully the post-Act 3 updates will at least tell us more about Vivi/Sabo, etc so we have more to go on.
