Strawhat Crew Theories and Prediction Thread

Baou Zakurga

Well,seeing how Usopp has turned into a summoner(I think thats what it's called),and Oda loves animals,I'm predicting more animal-shaped plant finishers.And cause I'm still recovering form the epicness that is the Impact Wolf,I can't wait to see more!

I think it'll be cool if the Impact Wolf could move on it's own,to an extent.Like,even if it misses,it can still 'run' at it's target,or Usopp diliberatly shoots it away from the enemy to fool them.Like,why shaped like an animal?Just to look cool?Maybe,but I'm hoping theres more to it.

I'm guessing theres going to be a kabuto and a hercalues shaped plant summons,for obvious reasons.

Or maybe:

Forest God :ninja:

Mugen

He did a phoenix one before ts. Also in strong world, he used some dragon one.

They weren't plants.. but fire and lightning respectively.

He had this animal stuff going on before ts.

Superbear 22

Monster Chopper's roar will somehow be a technique, not Haki, but a technique.

@Randoy:

The Strawhat pirates will become the stongest crew in the world.

Keep dreaming, bro.

I'm pretty sure he's 100% correct, unless you really haven't got the flow of the series you can't be the pirate king with out being the best there is, if he's weaker then the emperors kaidou, Big Mama, or Black Beard (who will obviously be the big big bad by the end of the series) then those crews will just put all they have into destroying him, along with the marines

he'd be done, idk if that was sarcasm by you, trolling, or just a serious neglect for how the series works but he was right, you don't need to be above the age of 5 to understand that

Lulz I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm, unless my sarcasm meter is broken That would suck

@Randoy:

The Strawhat pirates will become the most awesome crew in the world.

Now this I can agree on!

AkumaMiltos

I have a little theory here.
When in the end Zoro will fight with Mihwak for the title of the best swordsman in the world,Zoro will be completely blind.We have already seen that he lost his one eye,and I believe that soon enough he will lose his other one somehow.I think that his senses are the only thing he need to fight,as Zoro himself stated before.And I am pretty sure that a blind Samurai is something many people would find pretty badass.And also,it will be like a contrast with Mihawk who has like the best vision in all One Piece.Also I think this way Oda will cover the fact that Zoro learned many things about his rival,as being blind will make the battle kind of fair,because think about it Zoro knows probably knows many tricks from Mihawk.

Juvar

I thought this was utter bulls but I am liking the contrast between Hawkeyes - the man with the best vision in the world, and the blind swordsman.

However, I don't think this fits into One Piece - I could much more see it in a darker manga, but not here. Zoro needs his badass expression, his "demon eye", and all that stuff. He won't get blinded.

AkumaMiltos

I guess you have a point..
So screw my theory

I was being sarcastic. I know exactly how Shonen manga work. I was just replying the obvious with sarcasm.

If he does go blind would that would be hilarious if it fixed his terrible sense of direction.

Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of this when I first heard the idea. As Juvar put it, it is just a little dark for OP. I doubt his sense of direction would be any worse if he was blind, though

climhazard

Luffy will store one of his attacks into an impact or reject dial, for one of the weaker (Most likely Usopp) crew to use

Thatanas

That is a terrible idea. The crew should fight with their own strength, not relying on other people's strength in a 1 v 1 fight.

megachillx

@climhazard:

No. The reject dial def won't be used, that dial kills the user within a few uses. I wouldn't use the impact dial with such a weaker person based off a much stronger person, they will get dealt an aftershock. I doubt ussop could handle that many elephant punch aftershocks, his arm would be broken within a few uses once again.

huyoko

i think noah, is destined to be the pirate kings ship. Princess Shirahoshi is destined to lead the sea kings to the person who claims one peice. this will explain why the sea kings remembered rodger.

Only problem I have with that was how easily torn up The ship was with Luffy's attacks. If it was made from Treasure Tree wood then I'd doubt how strong the stuff actually is.

huyoko

only reason y i may have thought this, is purely down to the size of the ship. cause once he claims one peice, maybe he will unite the pirates after?

That logic doesn't make any sense.

Dosun struck the building after consuming an ES, and there's no reason to assume he'd hit Chopper as hard as he would hit a building.

Are you suggesting Dosun fell for Chopper's cute antics and pulled back on his attack to some extent?

A_Bigger_Nose_Than_Usopp14

Sentomaru is the new admiral. Based on his position pre-timeskip (being so important to Vegapunk-the love child of the WG). He also is quite an adept fighter and has control of the WGs new cyborg/robot weapons. Also he whore an admiral jacket post-timeskip and led a huge attack on the fake strawhats, something an admiral should/would be in charge of.

Sorry I just needed an excuse to post this picture. But seriously. That'd be so anticlimactic I don't even want to think about it. Like, Luffy escaped without problems, and he wasn't introduced as new Admiral when we saw him again - if now per change it'll be mentioned "oh hey btw he was an Admiral" then all the hype just goes to waste. I want to see someone new and awesome, or someone established who gets a fucking great reintroduction by kicking some serious ass. This is neither.

The most likely candidate is Smoker; he's a logia, for one, and two, he's a fairly powerful fighter that did his share of the work during the War. Being that he was promoted from Captain to Commodore in a fairly short time, I can easily see him achieving Admiral in 2 years. Kuzan is probably the new Fleet Admiral, considering they probably want Akainu and Kizaru out on the front lines.

exactly we know the NFP were all on ES when fighting the SH's are did he not get that was the only way to make them a considerable threat to the SH's??? and still they weren't a threat idk what to think if your under the impression they weren't on ES when fighting

Yup exactly. No doubt about it. If he could stop the same force that sent the building flying then why the heck not? Dosun holding back his strikes against Chopper, yeah right!

why would he hold back his strike??? reason???

it was more of a find out what other people thought of it post anyways, I don't expect chopper to be punching buildings all over the place, but the reason you guys have given don't make sense, he wasn't using ES… yes he was! He was holding back.... why, how??? a good enough reason or just simple reasoning like, hey chopper isn't gonna be smashing buildings all over the place to big a jump in power, that would be reasonable because it's just understandable

I was trying to see if it made sense but in hindsight not so much

^^ That was Sarcasm. Also Aokiji being an admiral would be so interesting because he knows how to keep a COOL and level headed mind (I made a funny)

But you have to take in account Smoker's personality. He's too rebellious to be entrusted with such a high rank.

is there a chance jinbei not join the crew? because why oda part the manga when luffy ask that? because he want to make us curious about that, and if the answer YES i dont think he should part the answer, right?. i think the answer is NO. My theory is Jinbei to old for this. Lets hope XD

Brook is Chronologically 90. Roger and Rayleigh were in their mid 50's when they quit pirating. Whitebeard was 72 when he died. So on and so forth. Jinbe's not really that old. The oldest Shichibukai (well, former, now) was Moriah at 48, who is now 50 (if he's still alive, which is fairly certain). Jinbe's 46 isn't really that old.

sogek

Brooke is exceptional because he is to old for age but not the personality, his body left the soul when he was young.
Jinbei will miss all the fun man if he be the next crew, he will sit alone while all the crew have joke and those stupid thing. Thats my theory XD.

Sanji and Zoro have been seen participating in their antics occasionally; Sanji when they're excited about something, and Zoro typically when Nami or someone else is discussing things that he doesn't grasp (he has the same level of comprehension as Luffy).

You misunderstand me. I am with you 100%. You know when someone doesn't believe something they say "yeah right" sarcastically? If ES Dosun sent the building flying with his hammer and Chopper stopped that hammer dead in it's tracks with his fist, Chopper obviously has that kind of power. I was laughing at the fact that someone would even consider Dosun holding back his attacks against his enemy.

time will tell. robin seemed to be in the same situation when she first join. a serious non-fun woman join the straw hats but as the chapter goes on, we can clearly see that robin has her own way of being funny and having fun. saying her scary thoughts for example. im pretty damn sure the same thing will happen to jimbei. 1-2 arc after he joins, he will shows us that he fit well with the abnormal situation in the crew.

they ought like to participate on those stupid thing,

NAMI : Punishment for those stupid and pervert in a way that makes us laugh.. XD
ROBIN : i agree she's dont like to participate, so Jinbei will accompany robin drink sake on the backseat.. LOL

Still awaiting Nami's use of the milky dial and to see if Usopp had already upgraded her tech in any way. She did ask him a favor and there may have been time from when they first met up until they set sail, but now that things are winding down I hope it's clarified.

Would you not describe any of the Admirals anything but rebellious? Aokiji let pirates get away home free, Kizaru overdoes it and causes too much destruction, Akainu has killed and attempted to kill navy soldiers

But they still respect and obey the WG most of the time. Smoker has had countless cases of bad behavior in the past and could have even been expelled from the Marines if it weren't for Hina. Being a Logia is not a guarantee for the position of an Admiral.

unreasonable power jump? How so?

Sanji was seen kicking buildings around like nothing back in the Oars fight on Thriller Bark. I can easily see Chopping doing that now. Is there something wrong with that?

Yea not sure if you were the best person to quote. You had kind of a question answer thing going on, thats it hard to determine exactly what stance you were taking.

But I agree with you that we aren't going to be seeing Chopper or anyone for that matter flinging buildings around left and right, was just stating that I believe if they watned to, they could. Flinging a building seems kind of pointless. I mean if you with just a punch can send a building flying. Why send the building flying at the person, I imagine being punched would hurt worse. Kind of like what would hurt worse, getting hit with a baseball bat or by the ball the baseball bat hit.

Yes the ball is much bigger in this case, but even if put a house sized ball in its place, to be able to hit that size of a ball the baseball bat would have to have ENORMOUS power behind it

I can't wait to see what kung fu point can do, even sanji recognized it as strong, and I'm guessing it takes the place of arm and leg point so it'll probably be his strongest point besides monster point
