Blackbeard Pirates Vs. Straw Hats Lineup
The Lineup
1. Blackbeard = Luffy
2. Shiryu = Zoro
3. Lafitte = Sanji
4. Vasco Shot = Jinbei
5. Doc Q/Stronger = Chopper
6. Van Auger = Usopp
7. Burgess = Franky
8. Pizarro = Brook
9. Caterina = Nami
10. Sanjuan Wolf = Robin
The Reasoning
1. Blackbeard and Luffy are the captains in their respective crews.
2. Shiryu and Zoro are the primary swordsmen in their respective crews.
3. Sanji looks like a Devil and Lafitte looks like an Angel. Both are the respective speedsters in their crews.
4. Vasco Shot uses Fire to fight and Jinbei uses Water to fight.
5. Doc Q creates diseases while Chopper creatures cures for diseases. Both are their crews respective doctors.
6. Van Auger and Usopp are the Sharpshooters of their respective crews.
7. Burgess and Franky have always kind of been the Strong Man of their groups. For example, one of Franky's most common moves is Strong Right and variations of it. It's also appropriate because Franky can at least try to take some damage and use lasers to break rocks or something.
8. This is a funny one. I'm thinking Brook needs to go on a mission of his own to find something and it turns out Pizarro is stopping him. Brook tends to go off on weird missions like that often. It's also possible that Brook is the only person who can bypass most of the danger involved with fighting Pizarro by going into his spirit form to locate his real body.
9. It's a woman Vs. woman fight. That means nobody has to hold back and Nami has been in such situations before where she has to fight a strong female opponent. It's believable.
10. *Edited* I'm going to leave Aokiji off the table and not even consider him a true member of the crew. In that case, Sanjuan Wolf is going to fight Robin. He can bloat and she can make giant stuff.
