Tis true, and the key being multiple PX's. I hope she stays away from the SH's.

Link?… Please?
Chapter 570… It is over you
Sentomaru: What the hell are you trying to do? You’re a Shichibukai aren’t you? You’ve stopped so many Pacifistas…aren’t you on the marines’ side?!
Hancock: Let me teach you something…
Sentomaru: Hm?
Hancock: Love is always a hurricane!!
Sentomaru: What the hell does that mean?!

Look at the current spoilwer thread on this forum!!!

How can't I not take offense to that?
I was confused, because you were totally putting spoilers up (without putting a spoil tag), so I thought you were joking.
eee?…Well, it isn't such a big feat considering the PX's can't fight her, it must be easy for Boa to crash big defenseless targets.

I hope you are right… She would be overpowered as hell if she could do it on her own
New crew member should totally be Buggy :D
I would like it if Hancock joined the crew…
On Perona : I've done so much of arguments about her not joining that I am not going to repeat myself. I will however say I TOLD YOU SO! later on.
On Hancock : Pets are now allowed… so no no for her XD just kidding.... I think that if it is a Warlord he/she needs to have been beaten up already by Luffy to show that Luffy can beat that Warlord.
Crocodile : I got a feeling of him joining... the arguments against him is "HE IS CROC" "Crocs are predators not to be trusted" "Crocodile would kill him" "Croc is evil" and so on... everything about him and the animal his name is from. Even if his name is Crocodile does not mean he is a crocodile! Hancock does not show to me similar to Snake... Kuma is not a bear is he now ? Doflamingo does he fight and behave the the birds ? Explain why a snake or whatever animal Jimbie was would be so nice to Luffy and help him and be likely to join if Crocodile is out of the question cause of HIS NAME!
Aren't snakes seen as the animal of life or something?
Lol, and croc is just unlikely. He has no reason, Luff doesn't like him, we have a BW person…
And, maybe Luffy should bitch slap Hancock. Then she can join xD.
This is what I think If he or she is going to join:
Hancock as much as I like her(fan boy) I would prepare her only as a temporary crew member.
Croc after seeing the latest chapter which is c570 I think there is a chance for him to join of course including Das/Daz.
Jimbie he is fit for being a helmsman for SH's IMO, also he will be a big help when they reach FI and others sea exploration thing.
Perona like the other said not having a bounty she can freely move unlike the other SH (except for sanji). Useful DF scouting and spying.
Bon-chan(Bentham) and Luffy BFF enough said

Even if Croc joins for sure not with Daz… that's why he won't join or something will happen that Das won't/can't follow Croc anymore
Didn't Inazuma use to be part of this discussion. I can't remember the arguments against him/her, so refresh my mind if there's any.
I'm still a Perona supporter, but with this chapter I realized he wouldn't be such a bad addition. That is, if he's willing to leave the revolutionaries for a while. :)

oh hell yeah! seems like i'm one of the only inazuma supporters around here many say he doesn't have a chance coz iva mentioned that he's one very important revolutionary. that means he has to be of a very good use ^^'' hihi so i will not count him out!

well, jimbei mostly resembles a whale shark, ne? and whale sharks are said to be peaceful but very powerful as well. just as an example.
[hide]
ah well .. gonna give you my opinion. ^^'' first of all … it's not just the name. it's coz oda has always portrayed him to be like a crocodile. if you are a crocodile, strenght is everything. if you're weak the other crocodiles are gonna eat you. and they don't hunt .. they wait for the perfect chance. for example .. if you're running from a crocodile and decide to climb a tree, fine. you may want to wait till the crocodile goes away. but you will lose. they can wait much longer than you can. he waited how long? 4 years to make his dream of operation utopia come true. people felt safe. they thought of him as a savior! they loved him! they trusted him ... big fail. btw i find it really funny that his scar resembles the 'grin' of a crocodile. this alone means danger.
but .. lets put this stuff aside since either you see the parallels or you say it's coincidence. ^-^
robin has worked 4 years as his #2 ... yet he didn't even think twice to kill her as soon as she was no use to HIS plan anymore. yes, people can change. but look at him. he thinks very highly about himself (can't blame him for that haha). then one day when finally all the work he did for many years should pay out ... he's beaten by a rookie. if you are a man with such a big ego, don't you think that this destroys your believe in yourself, at least a little bit? he even seemed like he's given up on his dreams, refusing the escape, stating that he's lost all interest in the outside world etc. i mean what's left of his life? he's not a shichibukai anymore, there's probably not much money anymore, ^^ everything he build up came crashing down. yet, he did not change in the slightest. he escaped with luffy and co. coz he wanted to kill whitebeard, not to help them. his ego is still the same. he does what he wants to do when he wants it. he went with them to escape and as soon as they entered the battlefield he was gone ... to kill whitebeard. then he went against the world government simply coz he didn't want to see them succeed. whatever reasons he has it's his selfish reasons. everyone of the strawhats has reasons, but they put selfishness aside for the sake of the crew.
furthermore .. he even stated that he's working with no one. come on, this is war. there are two sides ... whitebeard and the wg ... and he was, and still is, on his own side. see, being on one of the two sides is important. if you're fighting with whitebeard, your allies are going to help you in battle .. they may protect you etc. same for the marines. as seen during his fight against joz .. a bit backup would have been helpful. dofla saved him from another painful hit. so this would have been the perfect chance to get an ally ... just to be on a safer side. he still could have betrayed him. but he didn't even take that chance, that's his personality. he doesn't even want to team up in such a situation, coz he does no team work. well, kiss his feet and let him be the boss and your chances may rise.

i won't say that it's impossible for him to join. but it would ruin his character completely. and this is something i'd rather not wish for.
On Perona : I've done so much of arguments about her not joining that I am not going to repeat myself. I will however say I TOLD YOU SO! later on.

Seriously, all of your arguments that I have read are worthless. First you say Perona can't join because of her lips and now your main argument for Crocodile joining is that he isn't a crocodile?
"I told you so" should be said by someone whose actual argument proved the character unable to join. Or by someone whose support candidate joined. Not by someone who just came around and said "That character won't join". :wassat:
That Crocodile argument is stupid. I don't recall anyone saying he's an actual croc and talking about the animal's predator nature. That's just stupid shit.
He's not gonna join.
On another note I don't think Inazuma will at all. You guys are reaching too much. When yall suggest him it further propels the probability that nobody from this arc is joining. He doesn't seem to like Luffy in that nakama way, just helping him out of duty. He's scolded him on his rash decision several times in more of a "that's really dumb you're going to fail" rather than the typical response from SHs, "that's really outrageous, don't do it you crazy idiot."
@AdmiralYonkouMt.Bandit:

even if you think it's stupid … there are some parallels. if you say that's shit, it's ok. it's the same like saying zodiac signs don't mean anything ^^ either you believe it or you say it's shit. i don't think there's a wrong or right regarding this things. :happy:
Inazuma.. yikes that would be an even more boring addition than Jimbei.
it's the same like saying zodiac signs don't mean anything ^^ either you believe it or you say it's shit. i don't think there's a wrong or right regarding this things. :happy:
That sounds like astrology so only "wrong" would apply tbh.

^^ that depends .. horoscopes are wrong. yes

Are you serious…?
Chapter 570 MUST have a total big hint that he's cool with Luffy and vice versa.
I mean, he almost killed our hero twice.
I haven't read Chapter 570 yet, so I'm not going to say much, but like you're entitled to say and believe whatever you want, I'm just going to say, "Hell naw" as of now.
You do have a point with Perona though.
^^ that depends .. horoscopes are wrong. yes
Oh I know what you mean now, heh sorry, English isn't my first language, I retract my earlier statement.@KingofSarus:
Are you serious…?
He probably is but there is still no chance for Croc to join.
And even more… Croc AND Daz won't join... Funny that people think that if Croc join Daz will as well...
Oh I know what you mean now, heh sorry, English isn't my first language, I retract my earlier statement.He probably is but there is still no chance for Croc to join.
ah no need to apologize! and i agree with you
And even more… Croc AND Daz won't join... Funny that people think that if Croc join Daz will as well...
hihi and i do agree with you too ^-^ hihi
i feel like giving out some chocolate … T___T but sadly ... i don't have any ... ah ignore me ^^'' i'm in a very good mood today (could be due to ... the chapter!!! haha)
I think it's a fun idea to think of croc as a SH but it's not gonna happen. He is way too sinister for the current makeup of the crew…and I definitely don't see him tolerating the foolishness of Usopp/Luffy/Chopper etc.
I see Jimbei joining...I say after this arc he goes with the crew to fishman island and another power up happens for Luffy and the rest of the crew. After this Jimbei joins for one reason or another. The reason I don't see him joining immediately is because he is stronger than Luffy right now (Could be argued I guess).
even if you think it's stupid … there are some parallels. if you say that's shit, it's ok. it's the same like saying zodiac signs don't mean anything ^^ either you believe it or you say it's shit. i don't think there's a wrong or right regarding this things. :happy:
It's completely irrelevant when it comes to whether he will join or not.
Sure it's an example but that doesn't mean that it should be applied to this topic.
Motherfuckers is talking about taming crocodiles like it really has anything to do with this.It's stupid. Luffy will tame the croc and what? He'll join because of what? That's not a nakama to begin with.

yeah and that was only an example. ^^ that's not my main reason why he wont join, actually it was a very small part. ^^ i do think it's a good way to describe is character. and that's my opinion. :silly: doesn't mean everybody has to agree. neeee~

and i completely agree! as i said earlier, 'taming' someone is not what luffys crew is about. it's about deep trust and friendship, commitment and respect. ^^'' that really is too much to ask of croc …

This guy did it. Why couldn't Luffy? :P
[hide][/hide]
No, but seriously, I don't think Crocodile will join, and having heard the arguments against Inazuma (not friendly with Luffy), I don't think he will either. I'll just stick with Perona and be happy. :)
i'm only against perona due to her devil fruit.
as for joining new members i could care less and think that no more will. How about we make a new topic. Something to the extent of like:
NEW Strawhat allied crews
or something like that. You know discuss who we think will become Luffy's 47 new world captains that follow him. You know how Whitebeard has all these allies, that aren't part of his crew. I would imagine we could put these down so far or potentially.
1. Rosy Life Riders (for sure)
2. Kuja Pirates (for sure - regardless if Hancock joins or not)
3. Jimbei (dont' know if he is still a captain of crew or solo shichi)
4. Lola Pirates
Possible
1. Iva (dont' know if he has a queer crew or if he will go back to Dragon)
2. Buggy
3. Ace (not sure what to put him as, cause figure he will become like a rival captain of Luffy, though on brotherly love terms) So figure won't see a help from him until very end when taking down WG for ancient history time.
any more, and you think good idea for a new topic? basically same as this topic, but not guessing new crewmembers, but new allied crews that will help out strawhats if they call.
how bout all of water 7
some elbaf warriors
island of amazon lily
arabastia
sakura kingdom (formerly known as drum kingdom)
They have the Red Hair pirates, and Whitebeards as allies in the near future for massive battles like this war
I thought he died in ID?
This is one piece he is still very much alive and will probably come back in the future - hopefully not to "sacrifice" himself a third time though.

"I told you so" should be said by someone whose actual argument proved the character unable to join. Or by someone whose support candidate joined. Not by someone who just came around and said "That character won't join". :wassat:
Yea… about the lips that is kinda one of my last arguments!
Perona is bit evil in nature, she loved to be mean to her servants.
She was willingly serving Moria and respected him.
She cares more for her own life than trying to help her boss.
She is a coward.
She has no bounty
She must be invited by Luffy himself, Zoro would not bring her unless something came up that forces him to bring her.
She must first refuse Luffy's first offer of joining(Robin and Usopp break this)
MOST IMPORTANT! Before she joins there must be a BOSS FIGHT!(No one breaks this, even if they just "temp" join like some say they did have a boss fight)
Now tell me how to do boss fight before she joins ? That means that the boss fight must be on SI.
Situation arises where someone new is needed or Luffy mentioning it often he wants some specific thing.
She dislikes people telling her what to do and dislikes anyone disobeying her will.
Her dream is to create a country where all the 'cute' people are turned into zombie animals that obey only her.
She wished she was back on Thriller Bark.
How about this as few points ?
shes mean to her servants cause she doesnt know what true friendship is
it was never said that she respects moria just that she had fun under him
she value her life and never really respected her boss
usopp is a coward as well as nami but they have friendship and a bond that they can fight for perona doesnt
no bounty can be fixed if she helps fight the next boss with them
we dont know her real dream just that she would like to be spoilied and her way of seeing that happen is with servants
hows that for a few points? I know there are actual legitimate arguments why she cant join… and that we wont really know that for sure one way or the other untill Oda gives another peek into her personality. At this point its speculation on both sides what her true personality is like and wheter she has what it takes to possibly join
I think a fishman helmsman is the only real possibility for a new nakama at this point. The crew can have trouble getting to FI and realize they need a legit helmsman. This would also have alot of potential with Nami. The helmsman and navigator need to have a good relationship so that they stay in sync and it would help Nami grow even more as a character.
i agree i think a fish person joining will help nami charachter grow and if its a mermaid then theres the endless omg they have a cutie mermaid jokes
I also think a fishman would be the best, but i want Garp.
I know its not going to happen but it would be extra funny seeing him and luffy fighting over meat

You can see that when they have a family reunion… points at avatar :|

True, Oda keeps people alive for as long as possible. I can't really think of a major character that has died ever haha

this is how i figured it would happen since i'm sure it hard to steer a ship under water
I've been reading through this thread the past couple of days, and one question came to mind.
When did everyone decide that Boa had no chance of joining the crew? no one even brings her up anymore, it makes me sad :(
She's too strong plus more importantly it'd leave her island at the mercy of the marines.
Crocodile:
If One Piece had a darker theme, I can totally see him join as a "Judas" character who will attempt to steal glory from Luffy at the very end. But One Piece being as it is, I don't see this happening. You can never tell with Oda though :).
There is one major obstacle to Crocodile joining though: Princess Vivi. I cannot see her accept Crocodile as a nakama because of all the pain he caused her and her country. And I can't see the strawhats betray her like this.
Buggy:
Another potential "Judas", but on a much lighter note. I can imagine him being in the strawhat crew pretending to be their nakama but taking every opportunity to prepare traps to get rid of Luffy. Who would of course comically escape them everytime much to Buggy's annoyance.
But he has a new, stronger crew now, there is no need for him to join the strawhats unless he loses their trust. Which is a very likely scenario :D.
He has a high chance of being the next nakama.
Jinbei:
Too strong (yes, a lot stronger than Boa imho) and an one dimensional personality. Not suitable for the crew at all.
Boa Hancock:
She has most of the elements required for a strawhat nakama:
About her being too strong:
Firstly, her strength right now is totally exaggerated (and we see it only in comical situations where it is difficult to gauge). Similar to how Don Kreig was shown to be all powerful, or Mihawk when he showed up, or even Robin when we first saw her. Its all part of the storytelling.
Secondly, I don't see the strawhats surviving in the New World unless each of them is as strong as Boa currently is. What I am expecting is that each of them will get a powerup to compete equally with her and Luffy surpassing her eventually.
About the problem of Amazon Lily, one possibility is that they can join the revolutionaries. The implications of this are:
the one point that everyone misses they have to have a viable skill other then fighting. and as i see it no one in the current arc has a stand out skill other then fighting and some don't even have fighting skills
Crocodile:

Exaggerated? Krieg? Mihawk? At that time in the story many of those East Blue people had only seen strength the likes of Don Krieg. And Luffy handled him pretty easily during the fight, he was in no way shown to be over powered and then we get to reality. Mihawk has been consistant since day one, there were no exaggerations about Zoro losing, in east blue Zoro was just a big fish in a small pond, and got a rightful beating.
Everything besides kicking little animals has been shown to be serious business with Boa. It maybe funny why she goes after people like smoker, but it has been made very clear that she is a War Lord for a reason, and very powerful at that.
Now all of them as strong as Boa? Come on man, a group of 9 each as powerful as War Lord? By the end of the series, yeah I could see it, but now? When there are even fodder who live in the New World who pass out from Luffy's Haki? Absolutely not neccesary, when you consider the abilities of the New World pirates shown thus far. There is still lots of room to grow, and no way will they be able to destroy pacifista's like she did the moment they get out of Fish Man Island.
Reminds me of the first half of the grand line. It's predicted the moment they get there, everything is going to be an epic struggle. Zoro, Luffy, and Sanji, kicked butt like crazy all the way to Alabasta. It it will probably be similar in the NW. I still don't understand how people think every opponent they face is going to be another Lucci or Croc.
Next crew member will be Benton Fraser.
He'll apologise as he beats people up, and when Luffy eventually finds one piece will insist that it be returned to its rightful owners. Also his wolf will eat chopper.
