If the Strawhats were to only have Luffy and 3 Commanders
Who would you Chose?
How would you make them stronger to fit YC1, YC2 and YC3?
Which roles would they take over from the other Strawhats?



(No restrictions like having to pick robin because she reads poneglyphs)
 
#2
Zoro Sanji and yamato currently
Yc1 - Zoro
Yc2 - yamato
Yc3 - Sanji

But luffy's crew is going to be stronger than yonko evident by jinbe who's clearly strong enough to be a yc. On top of that the forced yc of each is vastly stronger than another yonko yc's. Like imagine
Zoro vs kata or king
Yamato vs smoothie or queen
Sanji vs cracker or jack
Currently every one of them is mid diffing the yc spot they are supposed to represent. Even if you switch yamato out for jinbe it still more or less the same thing except jinbe would struggle more with yc3
 
#3
Luffy, Zoro, sanji and robin

Without Robin there is no way of finding the one piece

Navigation and weather related stuff isn't that big of a problem when Zoro and sanji can come back unscathed after getting hit by a tsunami and save the other two in case they drown

All 4 of them can fly from island to island so having a boat isn't that important


Luffy Zoro and sanji are immune to diseases and robin is likely to be too since we never saw her get sick so a doctor isn't necessary


Overall these 4 could survive on their own but it'd be way more difficult without the rest of the crew
 
#7
Kaido and BM crew structure has nothing to do with Luffy's

Luffy's crew has the same structure of Shanks

Captain Luffy
Vice Captain Zoro
Commanders : Sanji , Jinbe , Yamato , Usop , Franky , Brook ,Robin
Marketing : Chopper , Nami

1. Luffy obviously.

2. Zoro because apparently Yonko / Pirate King level needs certain overall crew strength.

Now, here is the actual valid reasoning:

3. Sanji

Sanji is both strong and smart, and this trait can make him fulfill many roles.

EVIDENTLY POSSIBLE:

-- Zoro / Swordsman
---- He can use swords due to Germa training.
---- His fight with Wanze is proof.

-- Usopp / Gunner
---- Sanji is shown to wield pistol. Germa childhood training should be enough.

-- Chopper / Doctor
---- With good nutrition and diet, you won't get sick.
---- With recipes like the one he gets from Kamabakka, it's possible that there is healing meal.

-- Robin / Archeologist
---- Sanji is shown to be interested in DF since childhood. It makes sense if he read a lot of knowledge related to everything.

THEORITICALLY POSSIBLE:

-- Vivi / Princess
----- He is a royal, with Germa training he should be knowledgeable enough to be a politician.

-- Yamato / Log Keeper
---- Zeff is shown to have a log book and offered it to Luffy
---- Zeff is Sanji's mentor, him having logkeeping habit makes sense.

-- Brook / Musician
----- Sanji is gentleman type character ala James Bond. Him having able to play instruments makes sense.

-- Franky / Shipwright
----- Sanji can go underwater to fix Sunny. Apparently he's both strong enough and smart enough to understand basic carpentry and engineering.

-- Jinbe / Helmsman
----- Sanji has good enough strength and specialize in CoO, enough to make him understand basic steering.

4. Robin

Robin is smart, independence, and like Sanji, skillful & resourceful.

EVIDENTLY POSSIBLE

-- Nami / Navigator
----- Literally her intro is Robin traverse around early Grand Line by herself and her turle, she obviously can be a navigator.
----- Her job is paper type too, she's smart enough to draw maps.

-- Yamato / Log Keeper
---- Her job is paper type too, she's smart enough to document everything.

THEORITICALLY POSSIBLE

-- Usopp / Gunner
---- She wields gun and is an assassin.

-- Sanji / Cook - Stealth
----- She run around the world by herself since childhood, having basic cooking skill and stealth abilities is normal.



+++ STRENGTH

3. Sanji is evidently already YC2
4. Robin is already Peak Veteran, her DF is actually enough to carry her to YC3 and higher if Oda didn't limit it

+++ BALANCES

With Luffy Zoro alongside Sanji and Robin, SH has:
- 2 Brawl 2 Brain
- 2 DF 2 non-DF
- 2 Frontline 2 Stealth
- 2 Combat 2 Utility

Enough comedy in Sanji Luffy
Enough drama in Sanji Robin
Enough people skills in Sanji Luffy
Enough rivalry in Sanji Zoro
Enough tactical in Sanji Robin
Enough battle strength in Zoro Luffy
Enough pervert and asexual
Enough stern in Zoro Robin, enough sentimental in Luffy Sanji
Strength type swordsman in Zoro, speed type swordsman in Sanji
