Even then, if someone with strawhats qualities ask luffy if they could join I doubt luffy will refuse 10 is all he needs, he might actively stop seeking more recruits but not refuse anyone asking nicely to be a crewmate.

I'm asking from an out of story perspective, not an in story one. Luffy would probably be fine with a crew of a few thousand if people really wanted to join. I have no doubts about that.
What I'm asking is, do people think Oda will stop adding people once the crew hits 11 people (Luffy + 10 others)? |

1. Hancock. she's probably fired from the Shichibukai..... 2. Ace. Now that he's free. also, Whitebeard is (obviously) very injured and as such I feel it is very likely that the crew will be disbanded until Whitebeard get's better. Well, that's only if WB doesn't die. Ace is probably gonna join... thats why he's the second on my list. 3. Mr. 2 Bon Kurei, a.k.a. his real name Bentham, if he hasn't been killed by Magellan, might be surviving and possibly make a guest appearance at Marineford. He'd be number 1, but there's still the probability that he died. If he is dead, I'd be surprised frankly. It isn't like Oda to kill off such an important main character. (Like when Ace was going to die 3 times but didn't, or Luffy when fighting Lucci, or Buggy after the lightningbolt in Loguetown, I could go on) 4. Buggy/Crocodile. Very small chance. But since they're allies in Marineford........... I don't know. 4 and 5 on this list I sincerly believe will not join, but there is like a 2% chance that they might. 5. Marguerite. Hugely small chance. |

I think they'll still get a new Fishman character once the crew finally gets back together and they head down to Fishman Island.
Luffy got the shipwright he wanted. He got the musician he wanted. Then there's the next logical step. Well storywise I guess. |

The thing is though that Luffy still wants to surpass him. And Ace still really sees Luffy as a rival in the pirate world. So unless things change dramatically I can't really see him joining. There's gonna be a lot of guys from Whitebeard's crew that'll follow Ace.

Since Fishman Island has been such a big deal for so long now it's almost a guarantee that it'll be there Luffy picks up a new Mermaid/Fishman crewmember. Although I still think one final female crewmember is on the cards as well, but again that goes with a Mermaid.
All in all it could be said that we've yet to meet the next/last crewmember at all and these ideas planted in our heads about Boa/Buggy/Bon Clay/etc joining is just Oda's way of keeping us on the edge. Right now my theory is Jinbei will lead Luffy and the rejoined gang to Fishman Island, put them on good terms with the locals and maybe even introduce the new crew mate himself as one of his friends. |

If this happens, it would deffinately cause many comical situations like the two brothers fighting on what to do next and who is in charge. (not like a mutiny, but the way brothers fight over the smallest details) Or the two of them joining in on ridiculous anttics like they would when they were little kids.

Besides, there are still 2 more spots to be filled before we need to worry about this possibility. |

I have an idea. What about a person who is half Merman and half human? With their mixed blood status a person has to be tough to stand up to the constant abuse and mistreatment, and you can easily satisfy the tramatic past requirement as this practically screams for it. As for the dream, how about trying to bring an end to the descrimination? Maybe that's too idealistic for joining the crew.

Based purely on strength A-Team - Luffy, Sanji and Zoro B-Team - Franky C-Team - Brooke, Robin and sometimes Chopper* D-Team - Nami, Usopp and Chopper *I am never sure where to place Chopper... Oda has always been able to cross the "team" lines by having weird battles or having various members help each other in their respective battles. If Oda adds too many crew members, though, this balance could be destroyed. |

I think Oda can handle 10 man crew easily, he just dont have to do it with Enies Lobby style where almost everyone had 1on1 match. He could have some members to have 1on1 matches and give others team battles. |

Try not to strain your back; because that is an overwhelming amount of BS you are shoveling there.
This is not really the place for such a discussion (not that I would likely take part in such a discussion anyway)... |

Besides, the manga quite clearly stated the respective power levels (and arguably rankings) of the individual Strawhat crew circa Enies Lobby. Your refusal to accept the specific numbers and fights that Oda presented is your own problem, don't try and drag the rest of us down with you... I clarified the matter, provided the specific arc that ranked the Strawhat crew, now I am finished. Do what you want, but try not to strain yourself too much... |
