@TheCook:
WHat are the chances of Law joining? Seriously I could see it happening through events like this:
Big Mom has Law's crew, Law's crew is killed in some way by Big Mom, tragic story begins, ect.
Personally I would take Law joining over Jimbei. Main problem is Law seems ambitious with his own goals.
Since no one actually answered your question, I would say Law's chance of joining would be zero. He's been depicted as wanting to be pirate king as much as Luffy and Kidd, and the way I understood it from their meeting at Sabaody, those three are like this generation's Whitebeard, Roger, and Shiki, respectively.
@RobinotX:
So here comes another idea of how we should see the future of the Straw Hats…
And I think I see a sort of patern how many we can expect probably.
Let's put a list togheter..
East Blue
Zoro - 3 Style Swordsman - Master Type
Usopp
Sanji
Nami - Girl - Ranged Attacks
Grand Line: Paradise
Chopper Robin - Women - Ranged Attacks Franky Brook - 1 style Swordsman - Speed Type So if we look at this we see a sort of pattern. The first sea gave us a women and a swordsman. Paradise brought us also a women and a swordsman.
Now we have seen that Kinemon fights with 2 swords, is the possibility to have a Samurai from the Country of Wano who just happens to use 2 swords join a crew of pirates? Where we now of that the Samurai's have no allegiance to someone and hate Pirates it seems? Well I see it possible.
But if we even look further we can maybe even find something else hidden?
East Blue
Zoro - 3 Style Swordsman - Master Type (Physical)
Usopp - Ranged Fighter
Sanji - Physical Fighter
Nami - Girl - Ranged Attacks
Grand Line: Paradise
Chopper - Physical Fighter Robin - Women - Ranged Attacks Franky - Ranged Fighter
Brook - 1 style Swordsman - Speed Type (Physical)
It's just something I happend to stumble upon. It is probably just nothing what I saw and maybe we can predict what Oda does. Maybe it's just a coincidence..
Another thing is that the two women of the ship both had some sort of disagreement with the Government. Nami with Nizumi who was just a small part of the WG then we got Robin who was targeted by the World Government so maybe we have the next women who has something much bigger than Robin who joins. If I have to put my money on that? Yeah you probably would hate me for even thinking it but this would be my list for the future what we could see…
Grand Line: New World Jinbe - Physcial
Kinemon - 2 Style Swordsman - Power Style (Physical)
Bonney - Women - Ranged Attacks
Cabin Boy - Ranged Attacks.
And if I have to take the whole conclusion I think the Cabin Boy will be the last member of the crew, will be a young boy who will be the apprentice of Luffy which takes the hat after him and has the fruit of Ace. n.n;
Probably more of a fanfic idea of mine, it just an idea. We dont have any proof and the story will tell what happens, I just wanted to share this with some people and see what they think about it. Just some gibberish or do you think that I have sort of a point in it?
Not sure if Oda actually thinks in patterns, although I'll hand it to you for this one being a respectable theory. Still, at the moment I find it hard to see Kinemon joining, but frankly I don't think I see anyone joining in this whole Big Mum saga except Jinbe.
Then again, both Chopper and Robin joined in the BW saga, so who knows, maybe the Straw Hats will pick someone up in the next few islands. It'd have to be someone really goddamn special though, to even justify it. And no, not Sabo.
Edit: wtf, why are people still discussing Jinbe? The dude's awesome and, as we saw from the past arc, actually has an awesome personality when not wanting to die.
