Future Events Can Luffy become pirate king without being Top 1 in the verse?

The only people that have a chance of being stronger than eos luffy are imu/teach
Tho by the end the both of them aren't going to be a threat anymore whether it's due to them dying, losing their power, whatever

By the end of the story hes likely going to be the strongest freest man
 
Yes, he did. He had Rayleigh on his side. Rest of the crew wasnt shabby either.
He didnt "reign" anything after taking the title that he wasnt "reigning" before it.
Literally, nothing changed except giving himself a title he made up.

Strength to back up what? Being taken by your navigator to Raftel or having Oden to read PGs for you?
Which of those is strength backing up? Where is this PK being strength achievement coming from?
If you dont have the strength to back it up, someone will come along and snatch the precious title away from you?

Considering that Luffy isnt stronger than most of people he has beaten in NW and even in pre-TS, thinking that the final villain puts Luffy into his shadow is common sense. Too many people have fallen because of favorable circumstances, not because Luffy was stronger.
What exactly do you think it means to become King of the Pirates? Being a Pirate in general requires strength, as once you become a Pirate you are hunted by Marines, Bounty Hunters, and are constantly fighting against other Pirate crews.

So what do you think happens when you achieve the highest title in the Pirate World? Everyone just leaves you alone because you found some secret treasure? I'm sure you've heard of the concept of usurping a King for his Throne. Do you not think anyone would try that with Luffy?

It’s literally not. Naruto is not the strongest. Ichigo is not the strongest. Goku is not the strongest. I could go on. But these are the shows closest to One Piece, none of them i clude the mc being the number one.
Naruto and Goku were both the Strongest when their initial series respectfully ended the first time. When you bring the characters back to milk the franchise dry, then obviously you have to create newer, stronger characters.

When DBZ ended in the buu saga ? Goku’s peak alone is SS3. Which is inferior to whatever Buu’s strongest form was. He had to fuse with Vegeta to defeat the villain. Naruto was weaker than Kaguya by himself. Or do you count Z and Shippuden as milking the series ?

Whenever Goku defeated an opponent, he always magically jumped to being way stronger than them, no matter what the struggles he had during their fight. Because the series ended after that it couldn't be showcased, but since that was the case throughout the whole series, then it's easy to infer it was the same after the Buu fight.

Im no DBZ expert but i don’t recall Goku being portrayed superior to Buu. Previous villains don’t count since we’re talking EOS. Goku had a shit ton of help against Buu and not only was he weaker than him but Gohan as well. @HA001

Gohan > superbuu> kidd buu/ssj3 goku

I'll give you an example. We all know how heavily Goku struggled against Frieza right? Well in the Future Trunks Saga (The next major arc involving Goku), it starts off by Frieza and King Cold coming to destroy earth, in which Future Trunks shows up and LOL diffs them. Then he tries to fight Goku who beats him with one finger.

Thats got nothing to do with goku being far weaker than gohan at the end of z

We’re talking EOS bro. Frieza is not EOS DBZ. And there’s no proof of Goku > Buu. Guy literally used a Genkidama to put him away, which requires the powers of multiple people or some shit, on top of Vegeta and other countless help. Outside of villains there’s Gohan as mentionned above.

Again, after the Frieza fight, Goku went from struggling and needing the help of a spirit bomb to defeat him, to beating Future Trunks with one finger, who LOL diffed Frieza.
Whats that got to do with what im saying you pleb ???

Being stronger than kidd buu means shit

As super buu was far stronger

And ultimate gohan was slapping super buu around like a bitch.


How does that equate to goku being the strongest just cause he beat kidd buu ( with the power of the earth)

To become King of the Pirates means to go to Raftel and find the treasure, that's what PK means.
For Roger it also meant sailing all oceans and exploring all islands, that isnt applying to Luffy.
I never said it doesnt require strength, I said it absolutely doesnt require being the strongest.
Only the 3 World's Strongest titles require you to be strongest and Luffy isnt after either of them.

No, there is no usurping the King for his throne because there is no throne to be taken.
Nor is there physical crown to be stolen, whoever wants the title has business with Raftel, not with Luffy.
Nothing happens when you achieve the highest Pirate title, we literally saw it with Roger.
Try what with Luffy? You are confused, you think those who want to be PK have to take it from Luffy.

Beating Luffy or Roger has never been requirement for PK since that's not what the title represents.
You seem to have your own version of what PK means so I suggest you inform us about those details first.
It will be easier for us to break it down for you since you constantly bring up imaginary scenarios.

Sigh. Your constant stupidity is wearing me down.

Goku growing after beating kidd buu (with the power from all of earth no less) means fuck all
As kidd buu is waaaay weaker than super buu
And super buu was dog walked by ultimate gohan.

Lmao, no he wasn't waaaay weaker. And it seems you can't comprehend the level in which Goku grew after the Frieza fight, so there's no point in continuing this.
