Captain Van der decken for Nakama, just way the he looks at the Straw Hats really makes me think he has a chance.
I know you are trolling

Lol kishido the sig XD.

Of course I am.
Because I acutally have sanity and know that none of these people will join and we probably won't have a good idea until we get to FI

Just because you saw chances for Boa you are mad? Surume isn't impossible and has no country to take care

I will agree, Surume would be..awesome..
didn't the squid have like 3 tentacles chopped off by zoro?
Surume is the most likely candidate we've had here for a good long time.
Also he throws a mean right tentacle.

Only one. Chopped into 7 pieces.

If you don't let Luffy in he is certainly enough for at least year.
Even longer if it can regenerate tentacles.

Hatchi will see the Kraken - Look at his Takoyaki(spelling) cart.
Hatchi: We're gonna need a bigger boat.
Only like twenty pages worth of screentime and Surume's the best candidate since Jinbe.
the only candidate since jinbe.
I have a quick question for you guys what makes a pirate a good potential candidate for SHP's ? You guys are claiming that jinbei is a good candidate based on what? What criteria is there for a sHP crew member? IS there everyone ?
Read OP and the first nakama thereads before the shitstorm of stupid theories started.
I've read OP over about 3 times. The only theme they have thing they have in common is dreams. Is that all it takes to be a member of the SHP ? If so what's Jinbei's dream ? What makes him such a good candidate ?
You still don't get it. So why even talking with you. Just wait for FI, Jinbei and the rest of his untold story.
I disagree once we get to FI we'll get cariboo's untold story. cariboo for nakamaaaaaaa!!!!!! ^_^.
Like I said… It is for no use to talk with you
@Lisa:
But surume has one tentacle chopped off by zoro.:ermm:
http://mangastream.com/read/one_piece/16721780/16
idk but this page makes it seem like he had more than 8 to start with
Back to the kraken, which I am not totally head over heels in love with. :wub:
He's definitely the next nakama. He saved the SHs from an urgent crisis, which already makes him useful to the crew. He'll be an awesome pillar of strength in the New World. And he pulls the ship, so he doesn't even need to fit through the doors!
Just watch him plug a soon-to-erupt volcano with his body and save the SHs from devastation in the next chapter!
I bet Surume will totally look like Nakama when you're high.

Personally I'll wait and see who some of the long term people here start backing - seems more sensible then throwing names at a wall and seeing what sticks.
That said if you really look at a lot of the SH's there is not much in the way of a common thread (the dream aspect is something that is there - but with Brooke took a while to discover what it was so it is not an intitial indication)
I told you guys when the kraken first appeared that he'd be the next nakamate, but nooooo, a mod had to delete my post…
Granted, I wasn't serious at the time and was trying to distract the Cariboo talk (or something... I recall Jimbei's door argument brought up in joking passing right before), but...
Iam pretty sure that Surume will have the same fate as La Boum.
He is just to huge to follow them all the way.
I think it`s more likely that he will protect FI after the crew leaves after being told to do so by Luffy.
By that Luffy helps the island like once WB did, and leaves behind a big sign that he is now the new watching eye for the island.
Also Surume will have a good life down there.

Dammit, don't make sense, let us dream! Surume is awesome…
Wait... No, make sense and beat us with it. That's what this thread is for.
And that really seems like a fairly likely scenario, or at least in the broader sense that Surume will do something awesome before departing with manly tears shed.
Also i'd like to point out that I don't think the kraken to could be a nakama per say since he doesn't really have a dream maybe he could tell chopper ?

Shun the nonbelievers.
Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun.
I'm a long term person and I back everyone ^_^.
But seriously, When discussing the possibility of nakama I tend to think that anyone they meet has a possibility of joining until they don't. With the exception of the obvious who won't join. Of course people are going to want character who they like to join. However, to say that a person isn't SH material doesn't make sense to me. It seems as though to me if you had a dollar and a dream you'd be apart of the SHP crew. Also i'd like to point out that I don't think the kraken to could be a nakama per say since he doesn't really have a dream maybe he could tell chopper ? However, it'd be nice to see what comes from this…..Also what happened to the shark with the T-shirt on ?
You're right - just saying no they wont or yes they will when they show up is risky to be sure. But whats more risky is jumping on a character with little introduction and saying it's them for sure.
I would advocate patience wait and see how the character develops - besides if we were to look at it from a perspective of Luffy is shown wanting to make a better crew then Shanks - he is shown wanting his crew to be stronger then Shanks for when they meet. So I would say the crewmate is someone Luffy would be proud to have standing beside him when he sees Shanks for the first time.
Shun the nonbelievers.
Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun.
Actually by my scenario Surune is a nakama.
Just like Vivi and Carou.
He just doesnt sail all the time with them, but so didn
t La Boum with the Rumba-pirates, but still they called him a part of their crew.

So how isn't it obvious to you that Caribou will not join? Did you read 606? He escaped his ropes and hid, planning to sneak into their quarters and kill all of them when it was safe to do so, then take their heads and show the world that he murdered them all.

So you came back Flagg, I'm glad to see you learn something from your previous mistakes.
So you came back Flagg, I'm disappointed to see that you didn't learn anything from your previous mistakes (do you remember Perona?)
Actually that was my first post. I just registered. I lurked for a few days before posting so I wasn't here for the "Perona Wars" as you guys call them.
I'm guessing there was another member with the same name? I'm just a Stephen King fan.

Yeah, this one:
If I was Luffy I'd have Nami under my right arm Robin under my left and be like Shanks I am the pirate king ^_^. Also this patience thing is overrated I'm much more a fan of instant gratification.
Well we all know what would happen to you in a Zombie appocolypse.
Besides Luffy shows no interest in "relationships" To that effect neither did Shanks more partying with his Bro's.
I could see Jinbei being a part of it - a few people are hedging their bets on him. But then I thought Paulie was more likely to join then Franky for a while there, so my opinion isn't what you would call highly viable in these matters.

If that happens then the moment of parting will be the most moving moment in all of One Piece! :cwy:
Yeah, this one:
Why do I have a deja vu about this?
Yeah, this one:
After scanning a few of his posts it seems he was really in favor of Perona joining the Straw Hats, something I'd disagree with even if she wasn't already left in Sabaody. Even if she did, her ability just seems way too cheap and doesn't go along with the rest of the Straw Hat's type of fighting. Instead of fighting opponents she'd just demoralize them, and that's just not fun at all.
I don't see Boa or Jinbe or Caribou joining either. Caribou is obvious, Boa has to protect her Isle of Women, and Jinbe is way too strong and independent to join the Straw Hats. If he was the kind to join another person's crew then he would've joined the Whitebeards a long time ago, seeing as how he respected Newgate enough to be imprisoned rather than oppose him.
As for Surune, I'd agree with what somebody already said before me; that he will stay and guard Fishman Island. He's just way too big to be dragging around such a comparatively tiny ship for the rest of the series. I can't see him just relaxing at the shore of every island they visit from now until the rest of the series. Also, leaving him there to protect the place would be a good way for Luffy to make his name bigger; he'd be claiming his territory to protect the place just like Whitebeard did.
I should just say that Surume guarding Fishman Island wouldn't be anywhere near enough given that we can pretty much assume that if that level of cover was sufficient, Newgate wouldn't have had to use his name to protech the island.

He would be more a symbolic protector of the island.
It would be for sure Luffys name that saves the place, but having Surume there underlines how much Luffy gives for that island which will later be important.
Actually it never crossed my mind that Surume would be the protector of the island in Luffy's place.
That's actually a really good idea.

I see what you mean. If Oda does go down the parallel between Newgate's name & Luffy's name, having a member of his crew stay behind would indeed be a great symbol that it was under Luffy's protection. Good stuff.
I'm still not sure that Luffy's name would be enough given that this is something FI couldn't deal with by themselves. Should be interesting to see.
I don't think Surume is strawhatmember-potential, not even pet-potential.
