I'm genuinely baffled you think Oda established Cross Guild as a contendor for the One Piece even putting Buggy in that big spread hyping up the Final War, but in reality doesn't actually take the group seriously at all. That's 100% not gonna be the case my guy.
It´s not really a coincidence that of all the major factions, CG is the only one not really being given any prominence in Elbaf, either through flashbacks or the present, while the GK, BBP, Marines, RHP, RA´s and SHP all did get some stuff. Oda is going to rush to an ending soon, I don´t really think he´s going to spend time developing CG much, and the focus will probably remain on the main 3 who currently are in the group.

CG is also set up in a specific way where Crocodile is the one who made the plans, the ideas for it, he´s the one Buggy called out for ¨giving up¨ on his dream of getting the OP. I´m pretty skeptical you´d have a character join the group who would threaten Croco´s position in the crew. You could either have: Weevil, who is dumb, or Moria, who is weak and both could be bullied by Croco. But a smart strong character like Law or Kata? They´re just not going to want to listen to the guy in general.

Anyway, tbh only Weevil is trictly necessary. The rest are optional and depends on how big of a threat the CG wants to be.

With Weevil they would be already much stronger and stronger than any normal crew.
I’d have no issue if Weevil and Moria joining finalizes the crew but at the moment it’s still clearly a developing organization outside of its three main members lol.

Nah, we know Oda has plans for him. One editor said expliclty.

During last arc we came to know he's WB's clone basically.

And he's literally made to believe all Buggy's lies. He's clearly made for that.
That was all the way back in WCI bro. Oda probably scrapped whatever plans he had for Weevil tbh. Unless you subscribe to my theory that Weevil got hostage diffed by Aramaki, Weevil clearly isn’t gonna be very relevant if he’s low diff material for an Admiral. All that Weevil really has to offer is his strength, which apparently isn’t even that great

Aramaki is simply way stronger than people give him credit for.
Also, as said in the past I don't think hostages were involved but I don't think It was a full out 1vs1 either.

Weevil was described as being "incredibly strong, as young WB". Even in the wrost scenario, he's much stronger than King or Katakuri or Marco.

About him personally, I think we'll find out:

Bruh, even if Aramaki is straight up equal to Kaido, being low diff material for Kaido this late in the game is not a good look.

If strength is all he has to offer than that would be his role in Cross Guild lmao. Losing to an admiral isn’t that bad.

This just screams pessimism towards Oda’s writing. Were you saying the same thing about Kuma prior to Egghead?

I think strategy was involved.

He's dumb, he probably fell in some "trap".
Oda can offer some nuance, but it´s ultimately in the readers mind that an admiral could deal with him pretty easily, alongside the fact that he hasn´t really done much to live up to his hype.

Fwiw, I do also scale him above Marco, but that´s slowly not going to mean much, there´ll be plenty of characters who can claim that by the end game

If you take that statement literally it implies Aramaki > Primebeard which is obviously stupid
That was more of a simile than an actual comparison

It was obviously about raw strength. Idk why Admiral fans are deluding themselves into believing Weevil has any ACoC at all (much less Primebeard level ACoC) and a Gura Gura level DF that we’ve seen 0 hints of because reasons

He'll have his moment. He was alive and "well" at the end.

Probably Aramaki played it the smarth way. Would have won anyway, but not easily.

He's WB's clone, so CoC Is basically granted.

As for the fruit, might really have the Gura Gura itself considering the Seraphims have "fake" fruits too.
If not, Idk what, but he has something.

Also I was saying these things well before Aramaki and him ever come in contact.

Wasn't GV Whitebeard already equal to Roger by then?
Weevil isn't that strong
Nah, younger and wasn't even captain. He could Clash with Roger, but wasn't Roger's level.

Weevil is WB's clone so It's safe to assume he Is roughly as strong as the real one at his age. Also, as strong as needed to make Kizaru comparing him to young WB and defining him and "incredibly strong":

He’s a failed, mentally retarded clone. Blud is probably too stupid to even understand how to use advanced Haki
