Yamato is at least 2 levels above lanji. This is could also be one of the reasons oda didn't allow her to join.
Maybe, but it's strange. As the author, Oda can determine the power scale as he sees fit. If Yamato was really too powerful to join the crew, then maybe Oda didn't plan for her to become a strawhat in the first place.

They think lucci will join now:gokulaugh:
I was surprised to see him in the poll. I wondered if I'd missed something important that would make people think that.

Imo oda 100% initially wanted yamato to join but after one month break where he streamlined the rest of final saga , he probably removed her as SH.

His purpose is to be villain of the arc for zoro but apparently people here think a serial killer is nakama material

I thought the same thing at the time. But I was probably biased due to my disappointment. I should reread this arc to get a better idea.

Not only a serial killer. But a serial killer who works for the World Government, the arch-nemesis of piracy.
Also, he actually likes his job. I don't see why Lucci himself would want to join them.
 
Remember how Izo was a retainer but also a Yonko Commander? Now we all know our favorite ninja, interestingly if you just add the word Ra (sun god) to Izo, who's crew do you think he's gonna join?
 
Only one person thinks that. Don't lump us all in with Rambles.
There will come a time, when you do want to be lumped in with me. Just wait for the next few chapters. :myman:

I am just linking the most obvious hints here. So, you have to excuse me for being a little lazy.

As for the story progession, and why I think Lucci's and Stussy's allegiances are reversed you can read all below (again, just copied - sorry for that:

First you have to look at chapter 1062. We see Lucci here openly - and you have to really take that in - openly(!) question their mission! (This is huge, since up until now he was always considered the loyal dog of the WG.). He is not fully ok, with killing Vegapunk for a reason we still don't know (-he told us that Vegapunk is the only usefull human. But why he thinks so, ist still not touched on by Oda.

Than we have chapter 1069. Look at Stussy here: We know that she claims to be on Vegapunk's side, but she is actually quite fastly letting Akainu be called, to inform him that the SHPs are on Egghead. Akainu then could adjust his plan and reinforce the might that was travelling to Egghead. So, because Stussy called him, she is directly responsible for the now 9 VA and the 30,000 marines currently surrounding the island. You do not do that, if you know that your `father´ wants to flee.

It gets better: Now at chapter 1069, Lucci is not really following orders as he is engaging with Luffy without permission. Then we got to know through Stussy, that Akainu wanted especially for Lucci to not to engage the SHP. They were to wait for the navy.
Again, Lucci ignored the order and proceded with going up into the Labo-Phase to do just that - to engage the SHPs. And to make things worse for the WG, he even ordered the Seraphim to destroy the Labo-stratum, altough their mission stated clearly that they were ordered to not to destroy "...any of the lab's precious assets,[...]" - Like Kaku worded it in chapter 1062.

Stussy made Lucci stop going against the explicit orders of the WG and their mission, when she bit him and Kaku to make them sleep. For us and for the SHPs/Vegapunk it looked like she was helping the protagonists, while doing so, even if her reason for it was a different one.

What is more is: Stussy did no tell Vegapunk and the SHP that York was the traitor amongst them. We do not know if Stussy knew by then, but if she knew, she did not convey said info, when everyone was gathered together in the control room.

Then we had that little time-skip in which the many things happened that still have to be revealed, yet.

One important one for example is: Shaka's identity.
Alone the fact that he is wearing a helmet makes me wonder what is underneath and why he needs to hide it. His face has most probably features, we can easily recognize, so Oda did everything he could to not revealed it, yet. But we still are able to guess who he is, if we analyse him further: We see that he shares the exact same behavior, body posture (shoving their hands into their pockets), eloquent speech patter, believes/opinions (he is ready to make sacrafices for his greater goal), strategical skills with one person on the island: Lucci. Cut out Lucci's head and put it on Shaka and you will see that both are identical in their overall behavior to a point, where we see no difference other than their names.

See for example only their posture:


Just put Lucci's head on Shaka's body and you have the same person.

And here it gets crazy, because Oda had did not think we would figure it out: The name "Shaka" refers to the japanese religion and the Buddah Shaka Nyorai, who is the personification of `Good´. This is why Shaka is also referred to as the good side of Vegapunk. With Lucci's name you actually can do the same. His name is a short form for "Lucifer", who is the personification of `Evil´. Both characters are mirroring each other to the last letter and this alone can never be a coinicdence. They are related to each other - they are twins.

Oda has only not revealed this important part of the arc, because he inserted that damn time-skip. I have been waiting for months now to see Shaka's face.

By the way, Shaka is not dead: Because, while he was lying there motionless in the basement, with York announcing that he was dead (without feeling for his pulse or if he was still breathing), we saw of all people, Chopper, the only doctor, heading towards the basement. Don't you think that this is somehow odd? Why would Oda make of all people Chopper's group head down there? Alone this makes me believe that Shaka is not dead, but actually alife, but heavily wounded. I bet he was treated by Chopper the moment the reindeer got to him.

Lucci has also probably seen his brother by now and changed sides for good.

Then we are back to the present day and the WG, who has now made everyone understand that they have now new priorities. What has to be protected under any circumstances are:

- Punk Records (Vegapunk's brain)
- York
- Mother Flame

Now look at the situation: Lucci is standing there next to Atlas and starts attacking the Stellar. But before he can harm him, Stussy is there to protect him. I would call that selfless, if we did not call forth that the WG wants Punk Records to not come to harm. And what is Punk Records? The Stellar's brain - if Stellar dies, the brain dies with him! This is why Stussy throws herself between Lucci and Vegapunk - to protect Punk Records.
This act makes me question two things:

1. Why did Lucci not attack Atlas first, who stood right next to him.
2. And why did he of all people attack the Stellar if he had the order to protect Punk Records under any circumstances? (You cannot tell me that Lucci did not know of those new priorities - he communicated with the marines quite excesseively, conveying all necessary information they/Kizaru wanted.)

I tell you what: He did it because he wanted to hurt/kill Stussy, because he knew she needed to safe the Stellar, because this was her new order. He wanted her out of the way, because he needed for the Vegapunk Shaka to flee with everybody and be safe.
Now, he lets himself fall back with Zolo's attack and will be seperated with him for the next chapter.


Oh, and do you want to know what happened to Lucci and Kaku, after they had been bitten by a vampire-Stussy? Yes, Stussy is a vampire! Because look closely at Lucci and Kaku now - and at their small, pointy canines they are now sporting. Barely recognizable, but Oda can't fool me:



Both are now vampires.

The SH were designed from the very beginning and Oda planned each member to join with absolute carefullness. He is doing so with every of the 10 members. This time it will not be different. Yamato was never a choice for him - only a red herring.

He is not going to be the villain of the arc. Trust me on this. Just wait for the next few chapters to be released and we can have a talk.

Ow.. I'm sorry. I was trolling. :neesama: But if you are right. I will aknowledge your immense storytelling power. :)

Concerning Carrot, the text in orange is a part of the interview of Carrot's saiyu, to sum up she felt full of joy to interact with the crew. But I'm more interested in "the story that could not be told in the magazine" this might confirm something I say since the beginning.. But this might also put an end to Carrot's potential as a crewmate. We will see.

Just from wano momonosuke, Yamato, kinemon, tama, and carrot will probably join the crew in one way or another


Similar to how vivi is basically a strawhat
As for the egg head character I can see vegapunk Lilith, Bonney, and/or stussy being given open invitation to join too
 
Like how you tried to claim you were trolling about Carrot? :saden:
Oh I did not troll about Carrot, I trolled about Lucci lol.

There is still a little tiny possibility that Carrot could join but that's out of the realm of my theory. What I'm waiting here is the "story that could not be told in the magazine"

Yamato, & maybe Vivi and Tama
 
Yamato, & maybe Vivi and Tama
No, Yamato's and Tama's story are over.

By order of possibilities its:
- Vivi (because she has a target on her back)
- Stussy (Because she is a free agent)
- Bonney (Because she could become a free agent)
- Carrot (Because of everything I explained on worstgen)

Since Vivi is very close I put her on top. But I still think no one will join.
