You got to be kidding me, Big Mom pride herself on her intel on everyone there. Pudding is aware he is a good chef and they knew about the Baratie. If they don't know he can cook, there is something wrong.
Also this is the prediction thread, not the definitive edition 100% proof thread. I think it's very likely that one of the main characters who is one of the best cooks on the seas will help when they will need a big cake. Or do you think we will get a nice chapter of Pudding and Chiffon baking a cake, that will be exciting and super relevant right.
Exciting, no; relevant, yes seeing as it was literally just mentioned as a solution to the current problem.
Knowing he's a good chef and that he worked at the Baratie doesn't = them knowing HOW good his food is. Also Sanji was a helper at Baratie they weren't letting him cook a lot of dishes so it's not like Sanji was some world reknown chef before joining Luffy, the baratie was famous but not Sanji, Sanji became famous for being a pirate I would argue very few other pirate or people in general truly know how good his food is. This is one of BM's food rages and a special one at that, unless they've eaten his food I don't see any logical reasoning the BM family would put their trust in him to end her hunger when they have all kind of food inspired crew mates.
I think it's likely as well but I can still see Bim's point, I always knew it was a possibility and a likely one I just never really enjoyed the idea of escaping a Yonkou because "yum".
Wrong, you missed the point entirely. The point was that the Strawhats as pirates don't have a problem of not following their moral compass when it suits them. All your examples don't take away anything from that. Luffy was not happy fighting alongside Crocodile but he did it anyways to escape the prison.
If teaming up with Pudding means that they can stop Big Mom, They will 100% do it. Besides they don't really have another option now do they with Big Mom breathing in their necks.
If that was your point you didn't do well conveying it because what comes across from your post is "SH's have teamed with an enemy force before to defeat the leader" which is what this situation is then you gave examples of not that. They weren't my examples they were yours though and I addressed them simply to show they're not comparable to the situation you're proposing where an arc villains crew allies with the SH's to stop the arc villain. All of those examples were like Bim said, SH's teaming with a 3rd party to overcome the arc villain. No one's saying the SH's never team up with people to win but I can't recall an instance where they teamed up with the big bad's underlings in order to stop the big bad themselves and that was the example Bim asked for.
Of course, there's always options what are you getting at? What you meant was they don't have any options with a high to 100% chance of success and that's true but they still have the option of continuing to run while avoiding her attacks or to attempt to fight their pursuers off.
Plus how are the BM family gonna partner with Sanji and make a cake when they just sent BM out to kill them while Pudding makes the cake they plan to give to BM as a substitute? I could see Sanji making food for BM to get out of this situation but doing so in conjunction with the BM underlings doesn't seem to fit the story playing out currently.
