still think yamato has a clear chance right now. Outside SH's she's the only one who knew about Luffy's dream. and it's been clear that Luffy wanted her to join if not for her decision to stay. She only needs show up and join the crew. and I think that will happen once she finally able to teach Momo the basic of his fruit
Completely agree. I’m actually hundred percent certain that she will join before the end.
 
We already have Brook. It would be repetitive to have another dead crewmate.
That's assuming Pedro actually died and is resurrected like Brook instead of being in a vulnerable or near death state which multiple Strawhats have already experienced.

Besides we know Luffy respects Pedro and Pedro rode on the Sunny freely. Sharing some traits with some Strawhats isn't automatic disqualification as long as the character has strong unique physical and character features.

Pedro is unique among Strawhats having spots, a prehensile tail, dynamite, and Electro. Pedro has a eye scar on his left side similar to Luffy, Zoro, and Jinbe. Pedro uses a sword like Zoro and Brook. Gets hot under his fur like Chopper. Smokes like Sanji. Etc...

Don't focus too much on using similarities as disqualifiers but rather as potential bonders with the other crew members.

It doesn't sit well with me that there are some Minks we did not see their Sulong forms (Pedro, Pekoms, Bepo, Faust). It seems like a waste especially Bepo being in Wano or Faust not being in Wano. Oda disservicing Pedro, the reason Luffy and half of the crew had even a chance to escape WCI, by not showing the audience this hyped form would not make sense. And Pekoms is the ONLY Mink we know that has a Devil Fruit power! Pekoms has yet to display his DF power and Sulong together. Oda is planning to bring back the Minks which I believe is in the Vegapunk arc.

So Pedro should be on the list.

This is even worse than the Carrot coping

Just put Pedro as an option. None of the people on the list are really better options.
  • Vivi - unofficial Strawhat 5.5; Oda didn't originally plan for Vivi to be a princess; diplomat is not a pirate position represented in One Piece
  • Smoker - not quitting the Marines to be Luffy's "X Drake" just because he has logia powers; what is his crew position?
  • Caribou - Terrible person who "turned" good; not joining just because logia powers; Luffy doesn't view a person the Strawhats trapped in barrel as a crewmate; what is his crew position?
  • Hancock - Neither Sanji nor Brook could handle her riding the Sunny; Luffy and Nami are more likely to marry then Luffy with Hancock; her power is too broken for the crew especially against men; what is her crew position?
  • Jewelry Bonney - Made her up with the other supernovas in 3 hours; Luffy and Bonney would eat too much food combined; what is her crew position?
  • Bellamy - Not on crewmate status but rather an unofficial Grand Fleet member; Flag maker is not an essential position
  • Sabo - Ace didn't join. Sabo is not joining
  • Raizo - Luffy would invite a ninja but if he didn't invite Raizo before they left Wano so it's likely the joke appearance is not what Oda wants for the crew
It's not cope. It's hope.
 
You might aswell put Pedro because it's as good of an option as all of the picks in this list besides Vivi.


Also i like how half the tags are about shting on Carrot. "nEw tHrEaD wE dOn'T tAlK aBoUt LaMato oR LArRoT"

Rent free guys, only thing cringier than a carrot fan is a carrot hater.

:seriously:

Raizo it won't because the ninja position will be held by Tama
Hancock. No relationship in the crew said Oda

Also we should put Ace as an option as well. We actually don’t have any proof that Ace actually died in Marineford. The hole in his chest is just a red herring and a red fist.
