Hell there are some people out there who want Law as a new crewmate…
Next Strawhat Crewmate (Vol. 6)
-
-
The only person I would die to see him join is Crocodile.:wub:
-
I knew I forgot some… Thanks!
But it only proves my point as well. I know a lot of time have passed since Brook and people are eager to get a new one... But this twists the view of some.
Now it feels that every new character with more than 2 panels is suddenly a nakama candidate, which is undermined with crazy ass theories based on absolutely nothing... even more if said character is a woman
I really hope that Jinbe and the last one will join close to each other... Maybe people will get a lot "cleaner" look at this topic again.
But seeing shit like the color wheel... I'm afraid that instead will move on till the end with over 200 nakamas to fillt he color wheel or crazy ass hair theories
Pretty sure Oda said in an SBS somewhere that the two cremates were going to join consecutively. So they will be pretty close together. Jinbei is probs gonna join in Whole Cake and Purin? Minks? Unknown character?
Personally I would not be opposed to Pedro or Carrot joining but I have no basis for that, that is just me hoping

Yeah that's why I hope Purin will be indeed interesting… and maybe even more the 3-Eyes.
And not because she will eb ahottie and for Sanji... Cuz they never will actual be married... but because it would fit to get the 2 last 2 on board before we go full fight modus against the Yonkous

I want Pudding to be Bonney. She's definitely one of the more interesting female characters in OP, and she praised the SHs for taking down DD, and on top of that she doesn't have a crew atm.
So her joining the SHs is feasable and would reflect the real Bonney who joined other crews.If it's a female character I hope it will more than just for fanservice.And that she'd play an active role, lately we haven't seen Robin or Nami play an active role.

Not sure why people want Bonney to join the crew when she just could be part of the alliance. Also not sure if she could be Pudding considering her name (first and last name ) .

Even if it sems like this. We don't know if Bonney has a crew at the moment or not… If not... Shouldn't she care about get them out or whatever?
-
It just occurred to me: it was never explained why the Kyros Statue was never removed. Not that its important, but I guess that counts as a loose plot thread or something.
-

Without her own crew, that's unlikely. She wants to sail, and how is this any different than Jinbei? He has his own crew too.
We've seen her getting arrested by Akainu 2 years ago, some speculated that it was because of her fruit, that she could use to rejuvenate the old farts from the Gorosei, but it turns out they still look old. Remember she can make a grown man become a small child, so she has a wide range of ages she could change them into.
So that wasn't the reason she got captured. We know that Charlotte has at least 35 daughters, how that is possible don't ask me. Pudding is the 35th, so that potentially leaves Bonney, and even Lola be two of her daughters.
They both have similar lipstick as BM, and Bonney's ship is literally a cake.
And who else has a cake shaped ship? You guessed it, BM herself. And then there's Wholecake island which is an island shaped into cakes.
And the love Bonney has for food is the same as BM. As for her name, what if she used an alias? If this marriage business is something that was planned a long time ago, then she could have also ran away from home, and decided to have her own crew and not be affiliated with her mother, because she's a monster just like Sanji ran away from his folks because of their evil deeds(prolly).
Also her getting arrested can be explained simply by her being BM's daughter, but the Vinsmokes seem to have power over the WG so they prolly couldn't execute her for being BM's daughter.

Even if it sems like this. We don't know if Bonney has a crew at the moment or not… If not... Shouldn't she care about get them out or whatever?
Do you really think they would have made it out of there, all of them? We saw Bonney alone when she escaped, or was released not sure. But she's in hiding that's for sure.
But hiding from who? The WG, or BM who wants to marry her off? -
Again of course it seems like it… And even if it is like that I doubt it would be very nakama like if she isn't give a damn about getting her nakama sour.Either they are all dead or dunno... Would be like Law gives no fucks and goes with Luffy no on journey

What if they were all imprisoned? She can't get them out can she? I'm saying that her wish to sail again would be so strong that she'd want to sail again, no matter the cost. And right now she seems to like the SHs. And as explained earlier it's not any different from Jinbei who has his own crew, but is expected to join. If we go by what you say then he can't join because he has his own crew and should worry about them.

3-eyes - Had one panel… But this one is a wild guess which indeed could turn interesting
Two panels, actually.
ANyway, in her case, there is literally nothing there, BUT. The fact that Oda took the time to showcase her 3 years in advance, and she DOES have a physical trait unlike anyone else in the series, could someday absolutely be things and were she to show potential down the line, those would be key points in any future arguments.
That said, her design outside of the third eye is very plain, so, probably nothing there.
Anyone seriously pushing her at this point is insane though.
Pretty sure Oda said in an SBS somewhere that the two cremates were going to join consecutively. So they will be pretty close together. Jinbei is probs gonna join in Whole Cake and Purin? Minks? Unknown character?
Not an SBS but an interview. He never said it anywhere that permanent.
And giving the timing and context, he may have been refferring to the Strawhat fleet. Similar to the "a former boss character" was clearly about the Impel Down crew.
-
Bonney power is too boring, she won't join.

-

So are stretching rubber power, making extra hands, the power to be human, and the power to die.
Its not about the power but how it's used.
-
Bonney has no redeeming qualities to join the crew. There, I said it.
-
Snip
I'm not sure why she needs a crew to join Srawhat - Heart alliance?
Why your points about the Big Mom points are valid I'm still not sure. Bonney was said to come from the South Blue. If Big Mom lived in the South Blue at one point wouldn't be one of her first /middle children.? -
So are stretching rubber power, making extra hands, the power to be human, and the power to die.
Its not about the power but how it's used.
And with Bonney's power, theer is a lot of gag material there… esp if she and Luffy got into a fight over food, she'll de-age him thinking that solve it only to discover as a kid Luffy's still a monster at eating. ;)
But no, despite any gag potential, I do not believe Bonney will join the crew.
-
Bonney has no redeeming qualities to join the crew. There, I said it.
If CC and Monet have it for some people… Bonney is a free pass. Even if she would let her imprisoned crew imprisoned.
-
Bonney has no redeeming qualities to join the crew. There, I said it.
SHe's a tomboy that acts different from any other girl in the series, has had several interactions with the crew, can eat on par with Luffy, has a fairly unique design, and has a mysterious unexplored past that has her crying fro WHitebeard, hating Blackbeard, and personally sought out by Aikanu. SHe's got some serious story elements to her yet.
But those are sort of qualities most of the Supernovas had that makes her a solid secondary character, not really inherantly anything that makes her a full blown "next crewmember" candidate.
-
Bonney is cool and all but I don't see if she's a must for next nakama . She seems like she fits in the Law/Smoker/Kidd/Coby Allie /rival group.
Edit : To be fair Robby can we say Bonney is more of a Tomboy then Nami or Robin. She needs to past the giant robot test! -
What would Luffy or any other SH do? Oh wait… We have seen it twice...And no Jinbe isn't even close to be the same... But we are drifting apart to the out of my ass theories again
Nope it's the same, both have crews they should care about. According to you she shouldn't abandon her crew, whom for all we know could all be currently imprisoned in ID with no way of getting out. Or do you suggest that she does like Luffy? I think that was a one time thing.
What would happen if Jinbei joins? Would he abandon his crew as well? Shouldn't he care about them?
And out of my ass, yeah sure. No need to become all rude, just because you happen not to like a theory.

-

And I'm sure that what little we saw of 3 eyed girl shows that she has more redeeming qualities.
Seriously how can you say she has no redeeming qualities, when she was shown to weap for Whitebeard and hate Blackbeard? She even praised the SHs for taking out DD and making a name for themselves.
Oh that doesn't count?

And thanks Robbie, for pointing out why her character is a breath of fresh air, instead of being just another highly sexualized female character or worse yet another damsel in distress.

No. It doesn't. I never mentioned the triclops btw. Whatever she feels for WB and BB have to do with being a SH.

I already explained what does, she no longer sees them as enemies, and on Sabaody she saved Zoro's life . Although she had her own selfish reasons for doing that since it would be bad if an admiral showed up.
Besides it's as if everything has been already written in stone, what about her getting redeemed? If some see Ceasar getting that, despite all the horrible things he did, then surely she could get something like that if Oda really plans on doing it. And that could take the form of a flashback that would explain her background, why she was arrested etc.

I don't mentioned her relationship orstory with SHs. Whatever that is written in her backstory does not scream "SH material". She mighty be an important piece of the WG or the Void Century, it doesn't matter. And if we need this kind of character in the crew, Robin already fills this role and heck even Luffy for whatever the D means. She is a character that simply has no syncronization with the crew mood. She is the kind of character that does this in a regular mugiwara situation.

http://31.media.tumblr.com/e5fd72f08f553cabacae3d255da47cb1/tumblr_inline_ndjuva4wIa1s1cb14.pngI didn't say anything about her being related to the Void century, and frankly I find it to be far fetched. Her story is likely related to BM and WB. Not all the OP characters that are interesting need to be related to the Void century. And I'm sorry but how can you be so sure of that? There's very little interaction between her and the crew, in fact she only really interacted with Zoro. And shouldn't we actually see her do that with all of the crew or a good portion of them before coming to that conclusion?
I have yet to see you come with a single strong reason for her not to join, and again nothing is set into stone, who would have thought that Robin would turn out to be such a great addition to the crew? Very few I would say, since she was first an enemy then became a nakama, same for Franky. Actually Franky stole the money from Usopp and his family beat him up, and yet he is now an essential part of the crew.
So again I'd like to really know what is it about her character that is so incompatible with the crew? Is it because she said she would crush them? I think she likes to act tough, but deep down she's sensitive, as seen when WB died. So her words shouldn't be taken literally, and if anything we've seen her rejoice to see the SHs beat DD and his men.
So she's proud to be from the same generation. That shows that she could share the same dream as the SHs, and that she admires them. So that clearly shows there's more things in common between her and the SHs than what you'd think.
Tbh this is the first time I've seen so much hate for a character who is well written, and I just don't get how people can be so sure that someone isn't "SH material". And yet they end up rooting for other characters who don't end up joining anyway, and don't have much originality to them. I find that to be rather funny.
I'd rather have a character who is well written, even if at first he could be seen as an enemy or a rival, and if anything we've seen Oda use that trope twice.

You talked about her having a story with the SHs that it was 3 or 4 pages with Zoro, so it seemed liked you wanted to prove something about it.I have yet to see you come with a single strong reason for her not to join, and again nothing is set into stone, who would have thought that Robin would turn out to be such a great addition to the crew? Very few I would say, since she was first an enemy then became a nakama, same for Franky. Actually Franky stole the money from Usopp and his family beat him up, and yet he is now an essential part of the crew.
Franky and Robin are a entirelly different case. Had their stories revealed pretty much at their introduction arcs (With Robin having that cliffhanger until Water 7/CP9.) and she is in a very different league with those two since she is a pirate that made a name for herself in the Grand Line and Robin and Franky being awanted for totally different reasons. Franky was just a thug in a major location in The Grand Line. What is that compared to a Supernova? If we go by this logic of interesting character, than even Hachi is a potential crewmate now.
So again I'd like to really know what is it about her character that is so incompatible with the crew? Is it because she said she would crush them? I think she likes to act tough, but deep down she's sensitive, as seen when WB died. So her words shouldn't be taken literally, and if anything we've seen her rejoice to see the SHs beat DD and his men.

So is Hawkins, Apoo, Urouge, TEACH! What would that dream possibly be? Pirate Queen?! As in Luffy's dream?

-
As much as I want a new female character to join the strawhat crew I don't think Bonney would join. I don't think Luffy will like someone who can and probably will eat as much or more meat than him on his ship. After all he's a pirate and pirates don't share their meat, heroes do.
Urouge is too badass to join the crew. He's so badass, Kaido jumped off the skyisland just to get away from him.
-
WHat he lacks in screen time he makes up for with joy in our hearts.
I like to think this one video is what got Urouge admin status. :ninja:
-
I could see Pekemons joining maybe.
If we go off the Oda said the next 2 crewmembers would join back to back thing, and one of them is Jinbe during Whole Cake Island arc, I could see the other being Pekoms. Straw Hats are usually cool or pretty or cute, and he happens to be adorable and cool at the same time.
What I really like about him is that he's a Mink but he's also a Zoan, which is cool, another DF user would be nice. Not only that, but what I specifically like about him is not that he's a Mink or a Turtle Man, but that he's a New World honcho. NONE of the Straw Hats have any experience of the New World, they all came from Paradise or East Blue. Jinbe of course has more intimate knowledge of the NW since he's definitely been in it and knows all the major players like the Yonkou, but I don't think he was based in the NW the same way Pekoms was.
Not only that but he's powerful, he's got a huge ass bounty, and he's part of an existing huge crew already. We've yet to have a SH that defected from an infamous pirate crew to theirs, unless you count Robin leaving Baroque Works but that's not entirely the same thing. Having Pekoms would give the SHs someone with intimate knowledge of the underworld, the players of the NW, and how things kind of are in that sea. Robin facilitated a somewhat similar role but to a much lesser extent for the first half of the Grand Line.
Unfortunately though I like his personality it is kind of one dimensional. However, he's indebted to the SH's and unlike Leo in the last arc Pekoms seems to be developing a genuine rapport with Luffy, which is a big indicator of crew mates joining usually (but of course, not always).
I don't think he'll join, but man I'd be cool with it if he did.
With him joining Luffy on the Sanji rescue, this is the perfect time for Pekoms to show off some more depth, and possibly a dream and tragic backstory? As far as his ship position….underworld broker? Ship position hasn't been something we've considered for a long time, I don't think. At this point, does that even matter anymore? Especially when people throw around shit like Ceaser, Monet, Perona, Shirahoshi, etc...

And out of my ass, yeah sure. No need to become all rude, just because you happen not to like a theory.
Ok now I have a bit of time…
No it's not the same... Whiile we know jackshit about Bonney's crew... it still doesn't change the fact that it would be sad if she would do nothing if her crew is indeed still imprisoned. If there will be a nice story like her turning herself in doing some stuff for the WG while getting her crew immunity in turn... It would be absolutely great. But just joining the SHs while not caring about her crew is not "good"
And now why it's not the same as Jinbe's. The Sun pirates actually doesn't want to be pirates... Because Jinbe lost his WG status they are wanted again and needed to leave Fishmen Island and however Big Mom plays into it... Most likely the reason why Jinbe had to postpone his joining has to do with them.
If Luffy and Jinbe settle the things... Do they need to be pirates again and Jinbe is still chanceless to join? No they do not need... And why... Yeah because of the Fishmen District... While it is "officially" closed it would be the perfect place for them to "hide" from the goverment...
As I said... Saying it is the same for Bonney leacing her crew impirosned or whatever without a story is a bit too simple... If there will be a nice story around it I would be OK. But there isn't... And that's why I said out of our ass theories don't make sense right now.
But hey I actually give her more chances if she is indeed Purin or whoever than said characters as Pedro...
-
um
I always thought that Bonney is Ace's mum theory makes quite some sense
But then everyone is Ace's mum :ninja:runs away

There is also the option that Bonney's crew is dead. Akainu was the one to deal with them, so their death is not that unlikely.

What about BM? Do you honestly believe that she'll just let Jinbei go? It's likely she'll seek revenge on his crew for crossing her.
All those who refuse her end up having their loved ones getting decapitated. Which is why I believe BM needs to be taken down or become an ally before he can join.
So it is the same, both would be leaving their crews behind while they could potentially be in danger. And again if her own crew is imprisoned then there isn't much she can do. And the WG is looking for her, so it would be better for her to join a crew where she would be safe, and where she wouldn't have to run all the time.And again saying something like out of your ass doesn't make your argument more valid. We're here to discuss potential nakama right? Then why can't people just come up with their own theories?. Just because we didn't get the fully story doesn't mean we can't think about possible scenarios. That's what speculating is all about. And we can't get her story now can we? It can only happen if the SHs run into her. So what we can't even discuss her just because we don't know what happened in those two years, even though there are strong hints that she could be related to BM and that she could even be one of her daughters? When there is an upcoming arc where Sanji marries one of BM daughters? It makes no sense.
Even if it's something you don't agree with you should at least try to not demean it by dubbing an ass theory.Or maybe you just have no respect for other people's opinions.–- Update From New Post Merge ---

Maybe.It would be too extreme, but it's in the realm of possibilities, although I believe it's more likely they were arrested alongside her.
It's funny how you can't say that someone could be a candidate, just because we didn't get the full backstory. We know she was arrested, so her crew too must have been arrested or worse. How can she ever hope to free them? Break into ID?
And here I see people rooting for Triclops girl even though we know jack shit about her. Weird.
Honestly it just feels like some people are biased and don't want to even consider her as a candidate, despite the connection she could have with BM. Meh. -

That's not it at all. It's that all of these "theories" have been around for so long that we're now on page 784 of Vol. 6 of journey that is the "Next Strawhat Crewmate" threads.. Every idea/theory has been discussed and picked apart so many times that these threads spend just as much time being closed as being open. They've all been considered, and still need more panel time to be re-considered.
How can she ever hope to free them? Break into ID?
Her crew being imprisoned works a lot better than most other ideas because it gives her an immediate goal to focus on while being shown her backstory/real dream over time.

So because it was discussed in before it can't be discussed again lmao. I'm sorry but I think it's more than that.Well then we might just as well close this thread altogether, or make a rule about discussing only completely new characters that we haven't discussed in before.It's kinda futile if you ask me, because as long as there would be a thing such as next nakama we might end up discussing old characters, especially if they appear again.My original reasoning behind her joining is that she could be one of BM's daughters, maybe even be Pudding herself, which is going to be relevant now that the Sanji rescue mission is ongoing.
And we can't exclude that there are those who just don't like her character and are biased. So even if you explain everything to them they'll still reject her, without even considering that she could get character devlopment, or that we could get the fully story about her in time.And claiming that she won't fit in the general mood of the crew, as if all the crew members reacted the same way. Robin, Zoro, Franky don't get freaked out, but the weak trio do all the time, and each SH has his own personality that makes him unique in the crew. And it just so happens that Bonney also has her own unique personality.
I've seen a few being adamant about her not being SH material and that she can't join and giving some random reasons like her power being boring lol. That to me shows that it stems from a dislike of her character or only her power. You can't just say that it's just because it has already been discussed in before, and quite frankly I see quite a few old characters getting mentioned here coughVivicough even though they have no chance of joining, because they have duties they need to attend to.

So because it was discussed in before it can't be discussed again lmao.
Well, it's better than the alternative, imo. Differing opinions on the matter aren't going to change without more story development, and right now we're not there. So focusing on the arc specific characters is even a better idea, at least they're actually present at the moment. Save a few panels, Jinbe and Bonney haven't been absent for years and have been the cause of this thread being closed.
because as long as there would be a thing such as next nakama we might end up discussing old characters, especially if they appear again.
That's exactly what happens and it always leads to the thread being closed, lol. Until they appear again they really have nothing to warrant another discussion.
Well then we might just as well close this thread altogether
It's bound to happen again sooner or later, lol.
And we can't exclude that there are those who just don't like her character and are biased. So even if you explain everything to them they'll still reject her, without even considering that she could get character devlopment, or that we could get the fully story about her in time.
This is true for every character, even current members of the crew, lol. Still. I think this time though the idea was shot down just to have her not brought up again until she's in more than 2 panels with no dialog.
Personally, I feel she has potential if she shows up, or at least enough to travel with or become an ally of the crew sometime in the near future.

Vivi was literally just brought back this chapter. Her chance is still 0% though. She's likely just here to show us the upcoming reverie.
Having said all that.. We know that two people are going to join consecutively and one of them is Jinbe. So by the time we get to the Tea Party, or soon after arriving, the other candidate will have already been with the crew, or (re)introduced on Whole Cake Island. So just give it a few weeks, lol. I really don't think one of the Minks will join, tbh.. But that's just me.

@le:
um
I always thought that Bonney is Ace's mum theory makes quite some sense
But then everyone is Ace's mum :ninja:runs away
We saw Ace's mother Portgas D. Rogue die in a flashback though. And they didn't look the same.
-
Bonney is the only Supernova that hasn't been directly involved with this Kaidou and Big Mom situation in some capacity. Even Urogue saw Kaidou with his own eyes before he met Kid and the others.
I think she'll have to be apart of the hoopla in come capacity eventually. One of Big Mom's daughters sounds about right , whether or not she's Pudding and may join the crew later is up in the air at the moment.
-
What about BM? Do you honestly believe that she'll just let Jinbei go? It's likely she'll seek revenge on his crew for crossing her.
All those who refuse her end up having their loved ones getting decapitated. Which is why I believe BM needs to be taken down or become an ally before he can join.
So it is the same, both would be leaving their crews behind while they could potentially be in danger. And again if her own crew is imprisoned then there isn't much she can do. And the WG is looking for her, so it would be better for her to join a crew where she would be safe, and where she wouldn't have to run all the time.And again saying something like out of your ass doesn't make your argument more valid. We're here to discuss potential nakama right? Then why can't people just come up with their own theories?. Just because we didn't get the fully story doesn't mean we can't think about possible scenarios. That's what speculating is all about. And we can't get her story now can we? It can only happen if the SHs run into her. So what we can't even discuss her just because we don't know what happened in those two years, even though there are strong hints that she could be related to BM and that she could even be one of her daughters? When there is an upcoming arc where Sanji marries one of BM daughters? It makes no sense.
Even if it's something you don't agree with you should at least try to not demean it by dubbing an ass theory.Or maybe you just have no respect for other people's opinions.You know sooner or later Luffy will settle things with Big Mom? Even sooner with Sanji on the the stake…
But again to Bonney... What about ID? Even pre skip Luffy went there to free his brother... not even his nakama. The same Luffy who went against Enies Lobby no one ever has before... But you would be really OK if Bonney says... I can't do anything? Even if Luffy even goes to a fucking Yonkou to free Sanji?
Now back to the out of your ass theories... It's not even directed simply to you but as you have seen with previous posts about the general theme of this topic.
So far NO ONE of the named characters besides Jinbe even has the slightest chances... There is absolutely nothing to discuss about. Of course you can make theories about your favourite characters to let them join... But it doesn't raise the chances and actually is annoying as hell to debate with someone so fixed on his/her own theory.
I could make a theory about Sakazuki joining the crew based on nothing...
And this is what is the difference to pre Brook topics... Pauly vs Franky was extreme but actually a bit interesting with good arguments based on the ON GOING stuff in the manga. After Brook it became just a shit posting about either new boobs introduced or I LIKE THIS character so I would like him to join so I twist some stuff. Best example would be Boa... All cons have been simply ignored
Is it so hard to understand that a future nakama actually has some HEAVY build up and introduction? Bonney has nothing... If you like it or not. The theories of yours may be nice but it doesn't change the fact that I could write the same about other people with saying it being cool.
And to actually make you happy… If Bonney is Purin... I give her high chances... And the simple theory about her being related to Big Mom cuz of her cake like ship and bg hunger could make it happen... BUT everything else is just fanfic... And after all those years I can't stand it...
-
The new crewmate discussion is probably the must frustrating discussion on this board. It's been like 8 years since Brook joined….
Sigh. Whole Cake Island can't come soon enough... -
Ok now I have a bit of time…
No it's not the same... Whiile we know jackshit about Bonney's crew... it still doesn't change the fact that it would be sad if she would do nothing if her crew is indeed still imprisoned. If there will be a nice story like her turning herself in doing some stuff for the WG while getting her crew immunity in turn... It would be absolutely great. But just joining the SHs while not caring about her crew is not "good"
And now why it's not the same as Jinbe's. The Sun pirates actually doesn't want to be pirates... Because Jinbe lost his WG status they are wanted again and needed to leave Fishmen Island and however Big Mom plays into it... Most likely the reason why Jinbe had to postpone his joining has to do with them.
If Luffy and Jinbe settle the things... Do they need to be pirates again and Jinbe is still chanceless to join? No they do not need... And why... Yeah because of the Fishmen District... While it is "officially" closed it would be the perfect place for them to "hide" from the goverment...
As I said... Saying it is the same for Bonney leacing her crew impirosned or whatever without a story is a bit too simple... If there will be a nice story around it I would be OK. But there isn't... And that's why I said out of our ass theories don't make sense right now.
But hey I actually give her more chances if she is indeed Purin or whoever than said characters as Pedro...
I've actually brought up the issue of Jinbei's crew on NF - but I forgot the fact that they didn't want to be pirates anymore. When was that stated? During Jinbei's Flashback?
And yeah, only Jinbei + new character have a chance of joining. IMO.

honestly even if Bonney isn't Purin I would be kinda surprised if she wasn't as least shown in this next arc just because of all the question marks regarding her past and lineage and her possible connection with BM. I don't think she will join but is she isn't fleshed out here soon I don't know if she will ever be. I could see her and Jinbei both being allocated by Big Mom to help the SH take down Kaido (assuming that Nami or Luffy keep it civil between the two parties). In that case Bonney would travel with the crew and have a better chance of joining but unless we receive info on her crew I don't see how she will join. I am still very much uneasy about the fact that Jinebi has the Fishman Pirates under his command and that could possibly make him a fleet captain instead of a cremate but I hope that he becomes a cremate.
