None taken, my vote was for Arlong I think he might have one of the better chances
-
your missing the most obvious ones. Buggy and Alvida.
You know they are chasing them, along with smoker
-
Buggy should be on the poll selection.
-
Either Croc or Enel. Enel seems more of the long shot since he'll need a good reason to come to the blue sea. Then again Croc escaping ID will need to be explained to quite the extent for it to not be whack.
Ehh I dunno, Anyway prepare for "Man-Demon" Gin's return; New World, high bounty, stronger, badass crew.
-

well they've already made a return
-
yeah, and I imagine most people would vote for him, confirming something we already knew.

I didnt forget them, I excluded them because their already back.
-
oh so you mean do you think anyone else will start pursuing luffy for revenge or whatever.
out of all the choices i see no chance ever of any of them going after luffy again. We have seen coverstories for them all i believe and they seem to be out doing something not fighting wise at all anymore.
The only exception is Lucci, cause we are in mid story. but i don't see him going after luffy again, he seems pretty broken. i think him getting beat was a huge affect on him and he is currently in emo mode
-
I would want Crocodile to come back not as a SH enemy but something detrimental to the gov.
However, I'd love to see Kuro come back as well. He was my favorite character before Crocodile and the first villain I saw in One Piece.
-
I still think Foxy is coming after them, but there's no option…

Yea forgot about Kuro he was badass. Being 2nd smartest in the East Blue only behind the 1st mate of a yonkou(Ben Beckham) counts for something
Somewhere there's a fanfic where Croc, Enel, and Kuro team up and return to beat the snot out of the SHs…...........
Really tho where is Kuro, no real conclusion to his story even his cameo in the anime was ambiguous.
-

Haha! Same here!
Crocodile's obvious. Every one else's stories are pretty much wrapped up. Crocodile still left us with some questions, and an apparent sleeve with many "somethings" up it.
And I'd also like to see him come back and be a problem for the whole Gov't/world/big picture. But that's mostly the Crocodile fan in me talking.

Probably Wapol.
First off, this topic isn't about any villains returning to fight the SHs is it? Or to otherwise be antagonists? Cause I think that time has long past for any of the men mentioned above. I'd say give everyone else a turn!
But Wapol is different. He's the ownder of a company that makes the strongest metal in the world, I beleive. Wapol steel is good either way. I'd expect it to come into the story in some small way. Unless that is, another stronger metal is made.
-
Does anyone here think maybe one will come back as an allie
-
Does anyone here think maybe one will come back as an allie
Maybe Lucci and the other CP9 IF they become pirates or IF they join up with Dragon. As pirates though it'd be very very uneasy allies under specific circumstances, most likely a one time thing…........
-
Wapol. It'll be funny
-
Lucci and Crocodile are the only ones I can honestly see returning with any likelihood. Both would, if they returned, vouch for the SH's strength, and perhaps hold aside a couple of other folks while they went on ahead. Since, you know, bad guys sometimes do that out of respect for their defeaters. That's my prediction.
ALLEZ CUISINE!!
-
Pretty sure Crocodile would rather see Luffy shriveled and dead then help him in any way.
-
crocodile ftw! wapol needs to go kill himself somewhere lol. he's too much of a pansy to even come anywhere near the new world
-
Frankly I can't see any of these people coming back on in an antagonistic sense. Most of the people on this list have already been written out of the story as a threat.
I mean, Enel's on the moon for a reason. Since Oda can't kill anyone, he's been put in the place where he can't do any damage (seeing as lightning is far from lethal to those robot moles). Unlike Wapol, people like Enel, Arlong, Crocodile, Don Kreig, and Kuro won't change. Too much blood on there hands.
They are unlike Hatchi, who was placed in an area accessible to the story. Hell, Kuro and Kreig don't seem capable of going to the Grand line, especially Kuro. If Kuro could go to the Grandline it would mean he'd want to be a pirate again, which would conflict with his whole backstory about his strong desire to avoid being a pirate and chased by the marines. Worse yet, it would mean that Kuro would probably take revenge on the Syrup island, since his strong desire to avoid marine pursuit acted as his neatly written prison to the end of his story.
So, I guess I'm saying I'd rank Kuro at the bottom of the return list. Following would be Enel with his lack of Maxim pretty much traps him on the moon. Next would be Arlong, since he doesn't seem strong enough to break out of jail. I want to say Kreig will most likely never form a strong crew without Ghin, but without a neat little cover story that's just my belief. After that, I would also place Crocodile's escape as impossible, but you know what? Let's wait for the Whitebeard/WG war. If Croc's making a move, that's probably his best chance.
So, with Lucci currently free in the real world and Wapol a rich man, I'd say they have the best chance of returning. However, I'd be willing to guess that Lucci's cover story will somehow put him somewhere or change him somehow so that he won't be such a killing innocents anymore. That's what the cover stories tend to do, show transitions for minor yet important characters(Coby) or write hugely threatening villains out of the story in a way that pays respect to the character (Enel, king of the moon).
So in summary, I'm a big negative guy. I only see Wapol as having a good shot as coming back, since from a storytelling point of view 80% of these people are dead.
crocodile ftw! wapol needs to go kill himself somewhere lol. he's too much of a pansy to even come anywhere near the new world
Well, I can't say he's not a pansy, but do you remember where he is right now?
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/262/01/
He's got a few good reasons not to kill himself. One of them being his loveless yet most likely sexful relationship with that trophy wife back there.
-
I vote for Lucci, since those CP9 already hijack Candy pirate's ship, been a pirate is just another option to them. After been years of killing machine for WG, they decide to set sail to travel and enjoy their free life as a pirate…that's what i thought!
-
I want Enel to come back from the moon and show us what he has again hahaha!
-
Is there a rule of some sorts that characters featured in cover stories make a comeback? Like we saw Ace make a comeback (Banaro Island) after his cover-story.
-
Well, most of the coverstories have led back to the story. (Five, I think) That just leaves Wapol's, Gedatz's, Enel's, Goldenweek's, and CP9's stories as not being referenced in the main storyline YET.

Foxy with another game with a better crew. Heck, he may have even captured Buggy or Morgan. Maybe even Don Krieg.
-
I agree with onemoment on the possibility of Wapol returning. Enel also has a pretty good chance of coming into the story since the questions raised in Skypiea and his cover story about the moon, the sky islands, and the Blue Sea haven't been fully answered yet.
Croc also has pretty good grounds of returning, seeing as he's in Impel Down with Ace right now and the WG is going to execute him in less than a week.
-
Arlong, Crocodile, Lucci, and probably Don Krieg will return.
Croc I think is obvious. Arlong i think will return with Jinbei's apperance. Lucci is now a fugitive and might as well become a pirate. Gin said he would meet them again.

Ahhhhh the possibilities.
I should mention to me I am almost 100% positive that Captain "Axe-Hand" Morgan will return to the main story line, stronger and most likely badass. I say this since his name is based off of the real pirate(privateer)Captain/Admiral Sir Henry Morgan. So there's a chance he comes back as a pirate or if something happens with the war becomes a shichibukai.
Just saying there's a strong possibility since last we see him he is just on a sail boat escaping from prison and we have no clue as to where he is going or what he plans to do.
-
@Zik:

Seriously Morgan coming back as a Shichibukai would be hilarious. If he came back as a pirate I would love to see Helmeppo vs. Morgan. Unfortunately given Oda's habit of leaving the non-main character interactions happen off-screen, this is more than unlikely. Him coming back as a pirate would be cool though.
-
I too want to see Helmeppo vs Cyber Morgan.
-
I would be more intested in any possible comebacks to have some real impact on the storyline - maybe not as big as Banaro Island incident, but important nonetheless. Whats the fun in having someone, say CP9 as pirates, return in a role of no importance?
-
arlong, kuro, wapol and don krieg for sure will not return again…becoz oda didnt show their story at the cover page... i said this becoz for example..baggy and alvida.. after luffy defeat them... in the next arc.. the cover page was the story about baggy... then in rogue town buggy appear...
-
Well, to be honest, there is no way any of them, except Lucci and possibly Crocodile (assuming they were at their previous strength) could do shit against Luffy now. There return would only fit as a joke like Buggy's return or just a friendly meeting among pirates. Or as someone previously said, holding off some enemies while the Sh's escape.
-
I hve a feeling that both Enel and lucci will be friendlier towards SHs if they return. Just a feeling.
-
Its 100% sure that we will see again Buggy and Smoker.So it was a good choice to not been included in the poll.
I voted for don krieg since Gin said to sanji that they will meet again.
About the rest,Kuro and wapol is almost impossible for me.Arlong?Hmm there is not a reason,even when we see Jinbey.
Enel is possible,since he cant live in the moon For EVER.About Lucci and Crocodile i think is possible too. I have to add also some things,The cover mini stories might not been necessary part of the real storyline.Also CP9 sailing on a ship,doesnt mean that they became pirates. -
Who would have thought Hatchan would return, eh?
-
If they would return they would of course be stronger. It wouldn't make sense for them to return with the same stuff from earlier.
Kuro would have to not only perfect his speed but learn new techniques as well. He'd need to get his strength and especially his endurance up.
Crocodile knows what to do by now, but I think he could get stronger physically, quicker and then just be more creative.
Buggy will be seen again as will Alvida, but they will have(hopefully) gotten stronger. Since Buggy's DF is pretty much the reverse of Luffy's it would be interesting to see him in the future as a strong opponent.
Now, Enel could return and still be a threat for anyone but Luffy. However, I doubt he'd be friendly…no, I don't see a friendly Enel. But I doubt his return since he has everything that he wanted.
-
Any major villain who comes back is gonna be beefed, I guarantee it. When Crocodile does come back (again, I'm almost positive he will at some point), he'll be beefed up/presented as if he's trying harder. Whatever you wanna call it. Pretty much the same as what's going to happen when Smoker comes back into the story.
He'll be different in some way, shape, or form, so that he'll remain interesting and new.
Enel's done (living his own equivalent of "happily ever after"), Buggy's still in the mix, Kuro's just trying to lay low in East Blue, Wapol's also living HEA, Don Krieg couldn't cut it in the Grand Line, so he's done, and Arlong may make a cameo when Jimbei comes in the mix, or when Fishman Island does. Lucci's in a cover story right now, and most likely it'll put the CP9 to rest, as well.
So mostly Crocodile, and possibly Arlong, have any chance of coming back.
-
Don Krieg never said he was done with the Grand Line. They even said at the end of the Baratie arc that they were sailing back to the Grand Line immediately.
-

They did? at the end of the arc? I only remember Gin saying he'd meet Luffy again somewhere in the GL.
Krieg's crew got some balls if they're going back in their condition. They're a bunch of losers anyway and aren't ready for it.
As for Enel if Oda wants him to come back he will, but he seems content where he was in the cover story.
I could careless if Arlong come back although he should be in jail.
I don't think the CP9's cover story will wrap up their story unless they're gonna stay on that island and train the next generation. I think they're gonna be pirates(or join Dragon) even if it seems like a reach.
Kuro's up in the air, we don't know what he is doing. He'd be the biggest surprise.
And Wapol who cares, that arc would've been filler if it wasn't for Chopper.
-
I think it would be cool to see Crocodile return friendly ,though it's unlikely maybe being beaten by luffy did have some effect on him since he proved him wrong.
-
Eh, the man's too full of himself for that. I don't think Crocodile knows the meaning of the word "humility".
-
Although I voted for Kuro, as we have no idea what became of him(and also he was a pretty cruel and cunning opponent), I'd like to see Krieg's pirates reappear, under Gin's command with Krieg as the firstmate. The role reversal would be a nice touch, as we've never seen mutiny within a crew itself(unless you count Siam and Butchie with Kuro, although technically Django was their captain, and Kuro was the ex-captain).
Crocodile, along with Mr. 1-3 I'm sure will pop up later in the story anyway, Lucci's had a pretty big arc already, Wapol's reformed and living as a celebrity, and Arlong's in jail(granted if Hachi busted out, Arlong should be able to). Kuro or Krieg would possibly have the most interesting outcomes.

Kreig did want to go back to GL. He wanted to take over Baratie itslef since his ships were in bad condition.
-
Eh, the man's too full of himself for that. I don't think Crocodile knows the meaning of the word "humility".
I know its extremly unlikely but he said he used to be just like Luffy, maybe that part of him is still there
-
crocodile is the least likely to show up again, hes still in jail. Lucci i could see fighting luffy again but he would have to master haki since luffy is probably about to get a lesson in it. Smoker is obivously going to come back, coby too, and all the admirals will play some part in the story. Arlong could possibly come back and would be dangerously beefed up, but besides that i dont think there is any enemies from the east blue area that really would ever purpose a threat to the straw hat crew besides arlong.
The super nova's will most likely battle down the line if they made it off the island, jewlery, gang beige, law, and kidd/killer. Though i hope they all escape
-
@Xai:
Kreig did want to go back to GL. He wanted to take over Baratie itslef since his ships were in bad condition.
I know that but he FAILED and didn't have a scene where he spoke again about going to the GL after Luffy whooped his ass. Whoever I quoted said at the end of the arc after they lost Kreig or someone in their crew said they would immediately be going back to the GL which I don't think happened. The only person who said something about going to the GL again was Gin and he said one day and he was talking about himself he didn't make it sound like he would be going with Kreig and the crew but we shall see.
All I'm saying is after they lost if they went back to the GL, they're all dumbasses.
