What does the people say?
I think he is fit for the Sichibukai role, since he defeated one of them…
Mainly...Crocodile...

He wouldn't want to. I know the people who he has met would support him, but the other people don't know him and probably wouldn't want him to be a Shichibukai. Why would the government want him to fill in the spot that he made?
-
Maybe…maybe after Enies Lobby
-
Luffy woudn't approve of the idea, and it's not really something that can be forced so… no.
-
He did say, while fighting Croc…
" Well I'm the 8th Sichibukai!!!" -
^^I believe it was 'Hachibukai' :lol:
Anyways, abandon his crew and dreams to bemome a government lackey?! :blink: There's no denying he could be a potential candidate one day, if not.. already! But I'd severely doubt he'd consider a position in the seven armed seas, especially after Water 7 and everything with the Government.
-
DID CROC GET REPLACED WITH BLACKBEARD YET?No.I think
He would probablly be a Sichibukai when he's older…well...someday...
Luffy would be a Sichibukai someday...
Hmmm....But I dint think hed like the idea if leaving his crew...Maybe make them his staff...
(I dunno why but the more Luffy helps people the more his bounty increases...)
Hmmm...If people would have known about Skypiea and about Eneru's defeat(Who is actually a god-sort of...He would probablly be Sichibukai top draft...guy... -
It is not a matter of whether or not Luffy is qualified. It's a matter of Luffy not wanting to be a lapdog of the World Government. His goals are specifically to find One Piece and become Pirate King. Luffy doesn't have any reasons to join the World Governement much less the fact that his past interactions with individuals from the World Government just making it less likely Luffy would ever want to.
-
Yeah, I know…Luffy's not that smart to mingle with the really hard stuff...(NO OFFENSE...its a fact...)
-
Wouldn't becoming Shichibukai mean Luffy would have to ditch his nakama? I don't think Luffy would see the appeal in it.
-
I don't think so, being a candidate for the sichibukai, would mean you'll have to have responsibility. I can't see him responsible. :lol:
-
Exactly. He's got the bounty and an animal-related name, but that could all be a red herring for the fans to mull over. Luffy will never become a Shichibukai.
Besides, Nami would kill him :) (Remember, Shichibukai have to give Govt. percentage of their earnings).
-
Is it confirmed that you have to abandon your crew to become a Shichibukai. I mean a Shichibukai is practically a PIRATE that works for the government. It is nowhere mentioned that they stop being pirates, just that they work for the goverment. So as long as they don´t do anything that the WG doesn´t want them to do they still can act as pirates.
Besides doesn´t Doflamingo still have a crew. I mean the Bellamy flag wasn´t the Bellamy Flag after all but the Doflamingo Flag so why shouldn´t the same thing count for the Bellamy Pirates. Besides, the Bellamy Pirates´ dress-code is actually the same as Doflamingo´s.Originally posted by loulou@May 4 2005, 10:32 AM

[snapback]42183[/snapback]Actually I think it would be the other way around. Being a Shichibukai means that you have to take out other pirates, steal their treasure and share that with the government. Though it would mean that you have to give percentage away there´s still the fact that they get more money as Luffy being Shichibukai then when he´s not. ;)

[snapback]42180[/snapback]that somes it up. plus luffy caries about his nakamas so no way he is going to ditch them
-
- Luffy has a animal-related name but that does not mean he should be a Shichibukai.
-Luffy loves his Nakama, ditching them would make it look like if he was lying
-To be a Shichibukai, he has to steal other pirates' treasure and bribes the GW
-Imagine what will the crew do if he joined the Shichibukai? Zoro will quit because he sees there is no reason for him to be a pirate without Luffy.
-Luffy wants to be a pirate king, if he becomes a pirate king he can't become a Shichibukai.
-If Luffy joined the Shichibukai, I won't stop reading but I will be very sad and disappointed.

[snapback]42142[/snapback]Finally someone spelled 'shichibukai' right (well, in romajin) :D
And no, Luffy wouldn't think twice about becoming one; his goal is the One Piece, and frankly, no offense to him, he doesn't have the brains for the part (blame Oda for dumbing him down some, although I think he's hilarious and does get serious when it counts). Whitebeard would be a much better candidate for it, little as I know about him.
Things that have already been said, but meh. And no worries, joekido the Second, no one said it's even the least bit likely to happen, it's just a hypothetical discussion.
Quaint.
-
I had a similar Idea! but it was a little different. I tought if luffy would ever get a proposal from the governament to become a shishibukai but I think he won't accept it (because of the crew leaving thing, the becominf pirate king thing etc….).
-
Heh it'd be funny if all the members of the straw hat crew became shichibukai's in the end. I mean I could see Zoro taking over Mihawk's position and Luffy becoming one as well maybe after he becomes the pirate king.
-
Can non-captain members of a crew join the Sichibukai?
-
Well Mihawk wasn't exactly a captain.
-
He probably was, it wasn't mentioned. I don't see anyone bossing that guy around.
-
I can't imagine Luffy ditching his crew like that :unsure: …
-
Luffy wouldn't leave his crew like that.
-
Heh maybe Ussop would become a shichibukai though
-
What? Why? Ussop? He's a coward…
-
Because of his brave warrior of the sea dream. It'd make him an obvious candidate one day.
-
Even though Luffy would refuse to join, I can see the World Government offering him the position. After all, he is quickly becoming a threat, and having him join the Shichibukai would, in theory, lessen or remove the threat, even though it didn't exactly work with Crocodile (or Doflamingo, for that matter).

[snapback]42491[/snapback]Are you joking?
Ok, he's got bravery.. but that alone wouldn't make him a candidate for the Shichibukai. O_O
-
But the thing that truly kills the idea of Luffy ever being a candidate for Shikibuchai is that one of the very old wise men leaders of the World Government did say that Luffy can't be forgiven when it comes to defeating Crocodile, as weird as that may sound.
I guess news getting out that one of the Shikibuchai who are supposed to be practically invincible and one of the great powers of the World Government being defeated would make it harder to keep order in an already chaotic era.

[snapback]42510[/snapback]Crocodile had really evil plans…Their supposed to hate him...
Luffy doesnt wanna share his treasure with the governments, so he should say no to that offer -
It's most likely they could care less about Crocodile but word getting out that one of the Shikibuchai was defeated would lessen the amount of order that has existed from having the existence of a group pirate hunters that all used to have bounties over that of 79 million beru.
His defeat just makes their group look less intimidating since he was supposed to be undefeatable. Only Oda can truly imagine the possible amount of jackass, idiot small fry pirates that think less of the Shikibuchai, if only a little bit. That would be the case if they didn't come up with the cover story of Smoker being the one who dealt with Crocodile while no one outside of Arabasta, the mugawari crew, and the world government knows why Luffy was given a 100 million beru bounty.

What?
No, I'm saying that he couldn't become a candidate for the Shichibukai based on bravery alone. Hes got guts, determination and yeh, he's pretty crafty, but he's totally out of the Shichibukai league, simple as that.
He wants to become a brave warrior of the sea, that doesn't mean he's aspiring to rise to the level of a Shichibukai pirate.
-
I asked it before and I´ll ask it again. Could someone please fill me in where it is mentioned that you have to ditch your crew if you want to become Shichibukai? All we know is that Shichibukai are formerly wanted but now by the World Government tolerated PIRATES.
There´s absolutely no evidence that you have to leave your crew behind just to be one of them. Doflamingo seems to have his own crew. And furthermore one of Blackbeards crewmates tries to convince the WG to let his captain become Shichibukai. I seriously doubt that Laffite does that so that he gets rid of Blackbeard. -

[snapback]42534[/snapback]**True but you never know he could if he wanted too. I mean you're making it sound like he has to be as strong as Zoro and Luffy to even be considered shichibukai material.While Ussop isn't exactly the most powerful man in the world it's not like he couldn't aspire to great things and think about it. If he became a shichibukai that could be considered being a brave man of the sea. Although the same could be said if he became an honorary elbaf warrior.
And I agree who says Luffy would even have to give up his crew? Also Luffy's the kind of pirate you would want as a shichibukai. Even if he is a pirate Luffy does have his own sense of justice and protecting people.

[snapback]42665[/snapback]Jinbei left his crew and Arlong became the captain, same goes for Doflamingos clan.

[snapback]42761[/snapback]**Jinbei yes (thought that all might have been part of a greater scheme) but Doflamingo no! Or why would he have killed Bellemay for bringing shame over his flag? If they would truly go seperate ways then Doflamingo couldn´t have cared less.
[snapback]42768[/snapback]He killed Bellamy because he was a shame for the new age era… right?_

[snapback]42514[/snapback]**Instend of the World Government thanking Luffy for getting rid of Crocodile and lowering his bounty instend they rose his bounty when the WG hates Crocodile….
[snapback]42771[/snapback]And what were they supposed to do? The world government would look weak if they thanked Straw Hat Luffy for getting rid of one of the shichibukai's. Maybe if he wouldn't of had a bounty maybe they would have appreciated it more but come on. The world government isn't going to be grateful to a pirate that they think is a threat. After all that's why they changed the story and said it was Smoker who caught Crocodile._

[snapback]42793[/snapback]Nope it was because they brought shame upon his sign. And he also said that he doesn´t need any street punks under his "command". Go here and check pages 4 to 9 to see it.
Besides your argument that Bellamy he killed Bellamy because he is a shame for the new era includes that he is one of Doflamingo´s men. Obviously this new pirate age is Doflamingo´s idea so everyone who share´s that view follow´s him, correct?
