General & Others Next Straw Hat Crew Members and the Grand Fleet

[Peroroncino]

A reminder than the actual best possibility right now is that no one else will join.

been saying that no one will join since the old thread was a thing

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

Doesn’t mean shit to be honest. We theorize here and pretend to be experts of Oda’s story telling. Robin joint out of nowhere. So even a tertiary character can join. According to Oda the only criteria to join is Luffy and his whim at the moment to saying yes

 

[Logiko]

Well, we do need at least one more in order to match the Blackbeard pirates

Don't forget that this is a story. The fact that the strawhats are outnumbered could be a point of interest.

Yeah but they’re gravely outnumbered.

Blackbeard has at minimum 12 named individuals with powerful devil fruits that are likely able to fight. (plus Blackbeard himself) less we forget Moriah is somehow wrapped up here.

The straw hats having 10 total doesn’t bode well. Cause sure they may have one taken down by an ally, but any more than that? I kinda doubt it.

 

[Rambles]

Just so you know - Luffy likes leopards and wanted to recruit one he briefly made friends with in Punk hazard:

Unfortunately his friend the giraff-centaur interfered:

But maybe he will soon meet a nice leopard who he then can ask to join him.

Coincidence? :zorothink:

 

[Logiko]

Coincidence? :zorothink:

We will see but I wouldn't get my hope up.

Are we sure Blackbeard isn't included in the ten titanic captains ? Also Kuzan could be one, no ?

We know neither are as Blackbeard is “supported by his ten titanic captains” according to Gatz. And this was before Kuzans connection to them was known.

I like that there is the massive speculation on 1v1 mugiwara vs blackbeard

would like the Davy Back fight more nowadays...

or even those guys being beaten by some other secondary chars from other factions

The fun of the Davy back fight came from the lack of seriousness of the arc. That would suck for the BB pirates which is supposed to be a major climax.

 

[Urouge D. Rouge]

The BB pirates are meant to suck anyway

 

[Garp the Fist]

We don’t need another person to match the Blackbeard’s until we actually know who the Tenth is.

 

[Logiko]

We don't know that.

Let's be very careful. There is a chance that the blackbeard are not supposed to fight the strawhat. They could also...

be put into teams.

I know.. Weird, right? Remember that One Piece is all about the subversion of expectations. Oda talked about a giant battle royal if I recall correctly.. so the end of One Piece might not be what we expect it to be.

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

This tbh.

 

[Urouge D. Rouge]

Luffy also never went for "stornk guy join me"

he wanted a musician a cook and a doctor and a shipwright and thats what he went for

I said already maybe on this or other thread but i'd put more people than the sunny would be able to carry, lucky oda create the grand fleet to go their separate ways

Coincidence? :zorothink:

lt’s not in the Leopard that he was interested but the fact that he was a Centaur..

 

[Monkey D Al]

People say this, and I gotta question if people actually remember what early robin did.

Robin debuted as the big climatic finale to Whiskey Peak, was a consistent major player throughout the entirety of Alabasta and most important of all saved Luffy twice in Alabasta.

Right now, Miss All Sunday and Stussy are not the same.

I am going to be honest! I do agree. Robin was introduced as a big big ?. Which gives her an advantage. But on the other side Yamato seemed like a sure thing, and nothing happened. Which evens out things and again everything is possible.

 

[Sir Yasheen]

We don’t need another person to match the Blackbeard’s until we actually know who the Tenth is.

There’s still kuzan, and even that is under the assumption that Chopper will fight both Stronger and Doc Q. And I don’t think chopper is that good of a fighter.

 

[Sigran101]

A reminder than the actual best possibility right now is that no one else will join.

I really think Oda will make a big deal out of it when the crew is complete. After 25 years, the last member joined the crew and there wasn't even so much as a tweet or a color spread commemorating it? I don't think so.

 

[Warback]

The Davy back fight is more likely to be the shanks confrontation, the BB one will just be a death fight.


Also yeah we need one more SH, hopefully 3 more.

 

[Monkey D Al]

Could be. But we also had a lot of cases where the last number got filled by an external character. Which makes the bb10 vs the strawhats10 redundant.
