Idk about that, honestly, the Strawhats did fucking nothing the whole arc.
What did Luffy accomplish here? Did he defeat a Gorosei? No. Did he defeat an Admiral? No. Did they successfully protect the VP? Also no.
I'd say Luffy's appearance made it easier for the Gorosei to find the stream's source.
