How many Straw Hat's crew in the end of One Piece(thought)

Orca18

Hi guys..I just want to know..what's you guys predicted for how many crew that SH will have excluding Luffy in the end of One Piece..
I mean I don't think that Luffy need more people (Let's say 100) to accomplish his dream…His already got 7 people with him if Franky come in..and 8 if Vivi count too..So the only position left is musician I think...since he really likes party....but Franky can play guitar.

I just remember the first volume that Luffy mentioned..he needs 10 people to begin with...but I think he and the gang has already powerfull enough, even the WG set their eyes on him..and the world too...soon.

There you go.

Oda works like this. Just check Luffy's drawing of the type of mechanic he wanted before they got to Water 7. It's a mirror image of Franky.

Lord Kitetsu

Maybe but Luffy said that he wanted 10 members BEFORE the grand line.

Crimsonmon

At the very end? None.

**He also said he wanted a musician, and I don't see him changing his mind anythime soon.

At the end Luffy will have 10 people in the crew, not including himself. My personal speculation is that Rockstar ill become his musician. Since I believe the musician will be very important to the world. Not a "regular" person like franky, zoro, nami etc. Someone already wanted, highly.**

Yeah probably ten. Other positions that come to mind other than a muscian is a naturalist(cause I'd like to know what I can and can't eat/touch/smell etc.)

thinks back :laugh: yeah it does.

He said he wanted to find AT LEAST 10 people BEFORE he made a flag. That didn't happen.

oh cool! does anyone mind telling me what chapter it's on or posting up a pic? I never knew =p

Well, he said anyway that he'd like 10 people. But I'm guessing that he also meant 10 close nakama, while he can still have his own massively large crew coughFranky Familycough

You probably right…Luffy have already got a swordsman, navigator, sniper, chef, doctor, archeologist, (ship mechanic), (musicians)....what else does he need in pirates.....Blacksmith? Wizard? I don't think so...

btw Sin-Chan,..the picture "Luffy drawing" that TenshiOni talk about, you can find in chapter 323 page 5..

even though thats totally possible… i think that'd defeat the purpose and uniqueness of the strawhats. All heros are always portrayed at a disadvantage compaired to their foes to create a sense of suspence and the "underdog" feeling. If Oda was to add in a lot of extra crewmembers, that purpose would be completely defeated. There would be little to none character development for these character and therefore make them quit pointless.

EDIT: thanks for the page # Orca =)

You think luffy is just going to have a crew of officers? i see this as a gathering and forming of luffys core crew. He will first gather his officers, i think he'll gather maybe one more than franky so 9 in total possibly 10. we see strong pirates like shanks, whitebeard. they all have huge crews, still focusing on the officers but the henchmen are still there. needed? yes. for surely on the grand line. though i could see luffys crew being a different style of pirate crew, ultra capable officers on a small ship. similar to how they showed blackbeards crew being. luffy and blackbeards are the only examples of small crews i can think of.

I don't know what the translation you read said, but in the raw it says "Time to find some nakama. I'd want at least 10! And also a flag"

I'm guessing the translation you read translated "soshite" as "then", but it also means "and"

I wonder if Cobby can join Luffy crew….Or maybe Gin...that guy is cool..he strong enough. And also Don Krieg threat him bad...
