I think we need new true-man in to grew 'cause we lost Sanji…
Next Crew Member Speculation (Ver 3.0)
-
-
We still have Zoro.
-
-
The good thing about Mr.2 is that were he to join, it could be like everybody joining. Appearance-wise.
Though, I'm still a Perona supporter.
If Perona joined that would be rally wierd lol
-
Franky's man enough for the entire crew

I think after the latest chapter the strawhats need a fishman, when luffy sees Jinbei in action hell decide that for himself. His role will be fishman.
On a serious note the chapter shows us what a fishman can do, and what a possible fuure strawhat fishman could aim towards and aspire to. A helmsman seems like the most likely position. -
Yeah, all that Fishman Karate stuff this chapter was awesome. We really do need a Fishman who isn't Jimbei (It was even mentioned that he's still a captain this chapter) on the Straw Hats ASAP.
-
Now a helmsmen is someone who steers the ship. Do the Straw Hats really need such a person? Maybe now that the musician is filled the other less important jobs can start to fill up. But if its reason enough to get someone similar to jimbei on board then it is ok by me.
-
I really just can't see almost anyone from inside ID becoming nakama… any of the Shichibukai (Hancock or Jinbei) are just too well established and overpowered, Bon-chan (given the opportunity) would probably roll with Ivankov, and Mr. 3 is just too... inconsistent. Perona is a definite maybe, but I think the whole gothic lolita thing just wouldn't work on Thousand Sunny. Buggy joining would just be absolutely insane.
Hachi makes the most sense, given how thoroughly we've heard his backstory, and how connected and (relatively) capable it turns out he is, but I think the only way he'd come would be with 2 conditions:
1. Like Franky, he couldn't really go back to his takoyaki stand because of what happened at the Sabaody Archipelago.
2. Keimi came along.Of course that would imply Pappug would have to come along too... which might be overkill. But... can you even imagine the wardrobe problems the SH (well, specifically Nami) would have in the new world without a fashion designer on board? She'd be as useful as Franky... and a capable scout and rescuer to boot.
Then again it's probably more likely the focus is going to be reuniting the SH as it is more than recruiting new nakama anytime soon.
-
The SH Crew definitely needs a fishman, for events just like those happening in the most recent chapter. If the crew ever gets into a boat on boat battle (sort of like with Garp, but with actually fighting) all the DF users in the crew (with the exception of Brooke since he can run on water) plus Zoro and Sanji (and possibly Franky)would be useless unless they could could somehow board the boat, which, lets face it would be highly impossible if they were distanced on the water. So that leaves Sogeking as the only true capable fighter, because Nami's attacks may or may not reach, and Franky and Brooke may be unable to cross safely.
No before anyone says anything, I understand the docking stations can cancel this fault, but what happens if they're out of Cola and can't use the amazing gun and what not?
A fishman would simply make things easier, plus they're kick-ass.On another note, Bon-Chan would be a really cool addition, plus he could be really helpful to the crew when they need to gather information.
-
i Want Jimbei To Join!!!!
! Actually I never thought he would, then again, he is the Yakuza type honour loyalty character, and Luffy got him out of ID.
-
A lot of people want a fishman to join and I'm in agreement. I don't understand why so many people are against Jinbei being that fishman though. Everyone who joins the crew is going to be legendary, so it has to be one that has the potential to become the strongest fishman in the world. So, if a fishman is going to join I think Jinbei is the best option so far. It seems to me that Zoro could be stronger than him by the end of MHQ, so there shouldn't be much of a problem. Also, Jinbei's personality would fit in well. Alternatively, they could go for a legendary mermaid or a fishwoman instead.
-
uuuummm….mermaid princess for nakama:wub:
-
^Yeah right xD
I´d like to have Jinbei in the crew too.But he´d be a monster in the water….
The crew would be too overpowered I think...or not?Anyway,a Fishman or something is a must for the NW I think ^^
-
Don't want a fishmen… I just want THE fishmen Jimbei!!!
And the we have a monster quattro
-
Cliche scenario: the mermaid princess is a tomboy who dislikes being preppy and proper. In secret she had her personal servant teach her fishman karate. A pirate crew decides to use the war as way to wreak havoc on FM Island because its two protectors are out at war. Princess gets kidnapped. Strawhats get in good terms with the king and say they will bring her back. The princess kicks the ass of her captors and escapes. She helps the SHs defeat the pirates and she joins after convincing her overprotective mother to let her live her life.
Dream: To beat Jesus Burgess for his title as well as to explore all the 4 Blues that she was never allowed to see.
-
It would be the Monster Quartet.

Considering where they're going and the hopeless defeat they suffered on Sabodandy Archalaepogea, a strong addition is a must. And definitely an addition that can fight in the water, ships just sink too easy too fast in the New World.
We shall have no less than Jimbei!
Off-topic, but is Jimbei's full name Jimbei Along? As in Arlong? Or was that a translation issue and it was saying "take down Jimbei as he comes along"?
-
i think oda wants people who already have bounties but that's just my opinion anyways i didn't want to say this but the latest chapter was so awesome that I have to
JINBEI FOR NEXT NAKAMA!!!!!

Jesus Burgess for his title as well as to explore all the Blues that she was never allowed to see.It sound preaty good but i would change from pirat to tenryubu… there must be onother plot for them.
There is only one problem when SH will enter FM island the war will be already over...
the idea of mermaid tomboy princess witch fishamn karate is preaty good she could dislike Sanji and have character similar to luffy. There is problem with tail she need to be 30year old before her tail will split in two otherwise she is useleas on land or deck.

Did Oda give an age to the tail split or does it just happen "eventually?" The desired age for this character was 20 - 24.

yea he give http://www.mangafox.com/manga/one_piece/v44/c424/10.html
From character we saw:
Margaret was great character to join SH but right now is probably to late…
Jimbei is too charismatic and serious. he could join but later when luffy will be pirate king
Hancoc she is similar to Jimbei exept when she see Luffy then her intellect drop little, her only posibility to join is this love sickness (and maybe betrayal in marinford if this hapen)
Bon Clay he could join but only in women form (hormons)
Ivankow and inazuma they are revolutionares vocations -
I like Zkaiser's idea for a female mermaid princess tomboy fishman karate nakama. If not that the tank girl revolutionary.
Ofcourse Oda would tweak a few things but those 2 are the best so far regarding the next female joining.
-

I thought that was only for mermaids like caimie, not fishwomen like octopako.
-
But if a non-Fishman tried using Fishman Karate, it wouldn't be Fishman Karate anymore. It would be…normal karate. Not to mention that it's probably impossible anyway, since Fishman Karate's specialty is surface/underwater combat, something which humans aren't equipped for.
Still, a Fishman is a must after this week's chapter.

Why did you think Jimbei is not an option again?
-
Various reasons. This chapter confirmed that he's still considered the captain of a crew, and I made a bunch of posts awhile back about how someone who has been shown to be at their pinnicle joining the Straw Hats would instantly overshadow the others and go against the theme of them steadily working their way up the ladder of infamy. I don't really want to revisit this, but go back a couple dozen pages and read my posts.

Yeah no I remember now. Good point. We'll see where it goes, but man I hope he joins.
-
The straw hats will gain all the important people in the Impel down jail break and a few others so that the teams will be able to be divided into several squadrons such as
Three possible captains
1st Luffy
2nd Pandaman (Thinks he should have #1 spot because he has the Highest bounty)
3rd Buggy (Should be in weak section)Three swordsmen/first mates
1st Zoro
2nd Mr. 1 (isn't technically a swordsmen or a first mate)
3rd HatchanThree ladies
1st Nami
2nd Robin
3rd PeronaThree perverts
1st Sanji (insists he's a gentlemen)
2nd Franky (wants to be #1 on pervert list)
3rd BrookThree Okamas
1st Iva
2nd inzuma
3rd Mr. 2Three former shichibukai
1st Crocodile(wants to be in captain section)
2nd Jinbei
3rd Boa Hancock (should be in ladies section)Three weaklings
1st Usopp (wants to be in captain section)
2nd Chopper
3rd Mr. 3 -

I'm pretty sure mermen and mermaids can use fishmen karate

Foxy Brown joins the Marines, gets captured by the Straw Hats, becomes increasingly distrustful of the World Gov't. Power-Structure, joins up as Full-Time Superfriend of the WheatStraw Conspiracy, has a shoot-out with Samuel L. Jackson, kills a really whiny Tim Curry lookalike Tenryuukuso on-screen, gets a steamy shower scene with Nami and Robin, fires a rocket launcher into Akainu's battleship, and makes sweet love to Usopp just because she feels like it.
There. Can this end now?
-
I was kinda hoping bon clay joins but as a woman due to iva's hormone injections! but with iva out for the count at the moment with no cure im not too optimistic!
If bon did join but as a woman i really cant wait for sanji's reaction too him! lmao!

I dont think Mermaids and Mermen can use FISHMAN karate, they obviously do have a means of fighting but their physical strength isnt as good as Fishman, so it ould take one hell of a Merman to do it.
Though i think that Mermaids should be able to beat a Fishman in the water, they should be faster, but it seems as though Oda isnt going to show any powerful Mermaids. -

Perfect foundation for a possible dream. A merman having the dream of mastering Fishman Karate. Like you said, they probably shouldn't be able to use it but a possible merman nakama could want to prove otherwise by becoming the best at it. The mermans could be laughed at by the fishman because they are normally physically weak (yet unproven). By travelling with Luffy he could show all the fishman in the New World that he's worthy of being called the best (I think there should be a lot more fishmen because the New World seems to be mostly ruled by pirates, less discrimination etc.).

Oda hasn't even given us the tip of what mermaids can do and nothing on mermen.
It seems more to me that since he hasn't reached them yet you think he won't at all. News flash! This manga isn't ending anytime soon.
-
^^ Trusay, it doesn't was just an assumption. But styl when Oda talks of fishmen he generally talks of their power in comparison to humans and when we saw our first glimpse of fishmen we saw that they were powerful not to the fullest but we were aware they were powerful. Though with the mermaids we've seen theres no indication of this, imnot saying the manga is going to end soon, oda hasnt even reached fishman island yet, so i expect to see much more of mermen, but i just don't get the impression that they will be stronger than fishman, though with their speed they should be able to give a good fight.

Lool, that would be funny, not a bad idea, its likely that there are more fishmen in the new world. Though i would styl prefer a fishman nakama, they seem cooler than mermaids and have could do some pretty deep stuff like Jimbei.
-
Mermen/maids seem to be more built for speed and agility (they're the fastest things in the sea).. actually, has it been stated that there are fishwomen or mermen? Maybe they're the same race just the genders are different…

There are Fishwomen.

Next Nakama will definitly be Bon Clay… I think he would have join after Alabasta if he hadn't flee to save the SH. Luffy and him are so good friend and his devilfruit power has an incredible humoristic potential.
In fact, except for Nico Robbin, each character of the crew is some kind of a weirdo and Bon Clay would fit perfectly with them.
Jimbei is just not fun enough... -
Heresy!
Next Nakama has to be a serious{balanced/experienced character or a woman.
Bon Clay has his own role to play, he will join the Okama revolution. He's welcome to party any time of course. -
Just a theory how Jinbei cans join the SHs
We know that he has a debt on WB and WB is the one protecting the island with his name. But what if WB will fall in the coming war?
Fishmen islans will be attacked once more and Mermaids and fishmen would be put down as slaves once more. Jinbei can't do much alone but he puts his trust on Luffy and starts to travel with him cuz he believe Luffy will be the pirate king and that he will change the world and end the racism against the fishmen. Further more he could strenght himself and at the beginning he could be like a bodyguard for the SHs against stronger foes.
Just a theory :wub:
-
Yeah he could also realize that Luffy WILL become Pirate King, put his faith in him and join him because Luffy's influence will not only protect Fishman Island like WB does, but also eradicate racism.
