Loki is the first legit new crewmember character since Jinbe.
Luffy genuinely asked him not like a gag way or even in the are you coming with us way after we bonded on this journey like Yamato,Kin, Momo and yes even Vivi to a certain extent.
He's genuinely intrigued by Loki's character...
With how quick Vegapunk pulled out an improvised buff for Franky through casual conversation tells us that any issue can be addressed scientifically through this character.
If Oda wants Loki on the ship, chances are he will be.
Oda already playing the semantics size game. Loki and Ragnir dont seem as massive next to a deflated Luffy all of a sudden.
Also, it's good to see there's drawbacks to the Nidhogg devil fruit. It's great against other big targets, but not exactly the end all be all against smaller compact...
Loki is gonna be Luffy's Moon Issac Jr. He basically sacked an entire village of Giants as a teenager.
War God title is the hint. Tactical Officer, watch.
Yamato was persistent about joining until Luffy caved. Luffy has actively recruited Loki before our very eyes, something he hasn't done...
I think if Yamato joined she'd be apprentice like Kaido under Rocks. I mean think about it, she has no fame, feats or acclaim on the grandline or any of the four blues. She's essentially a super rookie by paradise-new world standards.
I feel like there's subtle implications in Jarul's dialogue that the Nidhogg fruit can control his size. But it is a translation, its just funny Oda keeps flirting with it.
The Old Legend doesn't have any barring on Loki's character at present if anything what Oda has established in parallel...
I can see Loki at best being Tatical Officer isn't out of the question. Zoro being First Mate is character development.
Narratively it under cuts his dream if he's known more as Luffy's First Mate, befor3 becoming WSS.
It amazes me how many people in the Fandom still debate this. Im glad Matt...
Speaking of Shirahoshi.
Oda set up two potential goals or dreams Loki could pursue outside of the vague end the world script he's been dealing up to now since he was essentially playing a role.
1) He figures out speaking to "Mosa" through den den with Jinbe present that shes Princess...
I think what's telling is that despite Harald's final request before perishing under the weight of Ragnir. Loki sees his way of changing Elbaph as fruitless, especially with how things ended, and despite not being the POS that we were led to believe, it's obvious Loki prefers a Pirate's life...
Either way smoke is in the water. If Loki's ending the world dream is metaphor for dismantling the
current establishment governing the world a case can be made him going with Luffy is just as crucial to him achieving his goals as Jinbe's desire for fish folk and human reconciliation or even...
I honestly think it could go either way. But im more so betting on Oda parallels the old Rocks and Harald gag of a pirate wanting a king of Elbaph to join his crew. It'd make Loki feel nostalgic.
Also, power scaling at this stage is hard when we are where we are. Yonko level, HK, Admiral...
