I doubt your rating is correct, there are many strong pirates, let's just do a quick count.
Luffy Ace White Beard Shanks Shanks 2 or 3 outstanding people although he probably has more as ROCKSTAR has a 94 mil bounty and is considered a weak member, a little fledgeling recruit. Zoro Sanji Blackbeard Blackbeards crue ect Now, considering there are 7 pirate gods (6 now), I think pirates are the top of the power scale right now. Considering there are probably tons stronger than the luff man and he's you know, probably equal to a pirate god. |

Also is Shanks you're average pirate? No. he's one of the strongest. The only one there that I would put on top is Whitebeard and Shanks compared to teh Shichibukai and Marine grand admirals. Ace also maybe. Blackbeard we don't know much about. There are 3 marine grand admirals. How do I rate there power too high? You You said Luffy is equal to a Shichibukai. He's not. You said there are tons stronger than Luffy. That isn't saying much. His entire crew is less than the power of a ONE Grand Admiral. |

actually the average marine and the average pirates are equal in strength. We see this in Logue TOwn when the Buggy Pirates fight the marines. The ones that deals any damage were the officers of the Buggy Pirates.
if the marines are so damn weak their base wouldve been overrun. Why would the Shichibukai want their bounties removed if the marines are so damn weak? |

Ugh, if you think whitebeard and shanks are the only real powerful pirates than you need realise that the anime and manga have left a lot of stuff open, and that there have to be other pirates at or near the same level. I'm sure there's tons of pirates that are stronger than most of the pirates we've seen. Do you really think we've been informed of all the strong pirates? You're forgetting that there are probably pirates with elemental devil fruit powers out there. Which is the strongest class of devil fruit power. Once again, if there are say 5 pirates with elemental powers, then including whitebeard and shanks in the mix, the pirates as a group are stronger than those marine grand whatevers.
Now, someone asked why the marines aren't overrun if pirates are stronger. Well, do you think shanks and whitebeard want the marines gone? I'm thinking they don't care at all about the marines. Getting rid of 2 of the most powerful pirate groups, why would anyone else even try to get rid of the marines when they are a force to be reckoned with? Now someone said buggy is the average pirate? Maybe in the weak ass blue sea, but around the grand line the average pirate is a guy like luffman. Spoiler:

the average pirate strong as luffy?? are u insane?
let's do the math.... Don Krieg's pirate for example: the captain is only 1.... while the 500 other pirates in his crew are all weak... maybe ure thinking the average pirate captain, and even ten luffy is a strong one. THats why ppl were still amazed when luffy said that his boutny was 30 mil. the average pirate is the ones that luffy and crew just throws around in their own boats. if the average pirate was strong as luffy then the marines would be completely run over. since there would be 5000000000000000000000000 luffys everywhere. |

Yeah, guess I wrote that wrong. The average captian is usually around his bounty. IF I'm wrong on this, then there are still a lot of strong people as strong if not stronger than luffy, I'll probably go with 30 as the amount of people at his level (in the group of the pirates). And that's probably a lower estimate. This manga has far to go and I feel when they start getting close to the last Island we'll all learn a bit more, and the pirates will be much stronger than our current luffy.

Also where was it said that you have to ditch your crews to become Shichibukai? It was never mentioned. |

Anyways, the shichibukai look like small fry compared to the admirals (at least the one that has been introduced)
Mihawk is Zoro's prey and should be kept for the end, but i doubt the others will become important in the story. |

The Shichibukai are considered one of the three powers of the world. These Pirates are not called Seven Gods of the Seas for nothing. |

I was thinking that at some point Luffy is going to be asked to join the schichibukai at some point. Hell, his name fits the anime scheme, Monkey D. Luffy. After Enies Lobby, the straw hats are going to be world famous, and whoever hasn't heard of them before will now. Kokoro has already predicted that. Using well known pirates to intimidate others is what the schichibukai are about anyway, thats why they were hesitant to have blackbeard join because no one knew about him. I'm sure no one has rejected an offer to be the shichibukai and lived to tell about it. Who knows if the 7 now are the original 7. If crocodile is going to be replaced, who's to say it hasn't been done before. I think the world government would offer him the posistion as long as he doesn't allow Robin to persue the lost history. That way they both would gain something. But Luffy would obviously refuse. So I bet the other members would feel it being a slap in the face, as if he was too good to join, and would go after him, or be ordered to go after him. Anyway, I just can't see oda not using the device to the fullest. It would be a waste for any of the schichibukai to not be used, and if they are used it automatically becomes important. |

Sorry Ninraven they would Offer the position to other pirates worthy of carring the name Shichibukai. The Shichibukai are pirates acknowledged by the Government, or could have been a serious threat to them so they made them offers to join them. Luffy is not Acknowledged like a Whitebeard or Shanks. In my opinion Shanks will be the one asked to join, if he is not a member already. The Government will not ask Luffy to become one because he is not a serious threat. Aokiji said that himself that the government does not take the Strawhat pirates seriously yet. |
