[Discussion] Luffy's current status ( hypothetically Speaking)

[KakarotxUchiha]

So lets put it into perspective, now that the anime ep came out, we see luffy gain 5600 pirates at his disposal.
But because i really think that its bound to happen, let's just hypothetically say that every kingdom he influenced in a positive manner Joins his fleet, or has already been willing to fight for luffy. Ill name a few things he has done: Save alabasta, Re-Revolutionized sky kingdom, saved and claimed fishmen island, just recently saved dress rosa, i know there's more but yeah, lets say all those army's joined forces under luffy FOR luffy in an upcoming war?
I'd say IF they were all willing to fight for luffy then hed be at least yonko status

Hype wise Luffy is Yonko lvl in OPverse.
Power/strength wise he is mid-high Shichibukai lvl at best.

 

[Uchiha boii]

Luffy with his current fleet is already above a warlord in terms of miltary might 5600 soliders is nothing to laugh at especially if one of the less notable members of that fleet can hurl zoro across the entire country of dressrosa seemingly easily as well therefore with the support you mentioned on top of the already impressive fleet of 5600 pirates and the strawhats at the helm yeah luffy has yonko status at that point

Luffynis definetly Yonko Level

Glad you made this thread, right after watching i thought, "These guys are tryin to make Luffy a Yonko" (°○°)

Lets not forget Also that Luffy has Boa Hancock and Her Army on his side, As well As Jinbei

And Now After Everything in Zoa, i think a handful of the minks as well as Wano Warriors are backin him up

So lets roughly set his army at 6500 strong, Any One Pirate who has that much man power, and renowned strong warriors (ie. Boa Hancock, Trafalgar Law, Sea Knight Jinbei, Orlumbus and Happo Navy, Fishman Army) on their side, deserve to be recognized at Yonko Level.

Lets also consider the fact that Luffy is inavding a f***ing Yonko's territory right now, to retrieve a team member. And Big Mom knows they're there. They knew they had little chance to sneek in and it failed, yet Luffy gave no f***s and said he'd kick Big Mom's ass if needed be. Not saying he could take Big Mom 1 vs (we dont know her powers) but Big Moms Army vs Straw Hat Army at least puts them both at equal level. CONSIDERING What we've seen of Kaido and his subordinates, i'd say they're stronger then Big Mom, so Straw Hat Army aren't that high up in Yonko Level. Cause imo its goes from weakest to strongest:
Straw Hat, Big Mom -> Blackbeard -> Kaido -> Shanks -> Dragon

I would say he would be a yonkou candidate. He is basically at the point where Blackbeard was pre-skip.

Blackbeard seized his opportunities, responsbalie for some world changing events, gained a lot of territory and became a force that could only be beaten by a handful of people.

Marco and the WB pirates were one of those crews but BB took care of that himself.

If Luffy continues this snowball effect and bring a yonkou to his knees and expends his force. Claims some islands in the process like Fishman Island. Then the world will recognize him as yonkou very soon.

 

[Punk Hazard]

No he wouldn't. He lacks the strength to be a Yonko. He's got a few more to go.

By the standards of the series, hurling Zoro isn't really that impressive a feat. Luffy, in Water 7 while tired and hungry, knocked down two skyscrapers, both of which have to be weighing tons upon tons each. Zoro's weight is in the 200s in all likelihood, ofc people who are at least as strong as Luffy was then can hurl him.

Luffy has a long way to go. His Fleet would get obliterated by a yonko. His top 2 fleet captains struggled beating Gladius, who wasn't even a top officer in his crew.

East Blue Zoro(just when they got to Reverse Mountain), was lifting 8000lbs(4 tons) during his workout. He also threw half a building with one arm in Alabasta. I even remember Lucci throwing Luffy halfway across Water 7 with one arm so yeah.....throwing human bodies should be the LEAST a weak character can do.
