1. Why are you not naming Zoro as well?
2. This chapter, as Urouge even posted the page, showed a very big hint that Jinbei isn't stronger and wouldn't break the dynamic
3. Just wait for the next fights. This is the exact same discussion like with Franky in the past
Seriously Kishido… Are you actually able to enjoy this manga with your favorite character not being one of the top 3 strongest?
Usopp is probably my favorite SH, i love his fights. But he's probably the weakest strawhat.
OT.
Jimbei is starting to grow on me. I hope he shows us a more of an extreme character trait, though.
That's something he still lacks.
If he joins he should be the strongest SH underwater, If another Strawhat would be a better fighter then him underwater that would just be lame.
