[Discussion] SH crew importance

[AllKnowingShinobi]

sanji being the 4th crew member to leave really make me thing what luffy said" I cant become pirate king without you!". this says a lot so by elimination who in the SH crew isn't capable or has the least impact of contributing to luffys success.

the two most important character right now in my opinion is between zoro and usopp, usopp is a wild card whos cable of changing the game and when he does its usually really big(cp9 arc, dressrosa acr, and just funny content), while zoro ...ughmm nuff said, shit its zoro.

the least i see doing jack shit is chooper and franky. these two are just their for the ride. chooper couldn't even save luffy from poison and franky is just a joke in its self.

my point is that would luffy be able to leave anyone and still chase his dream to become pirate king? luffy is capable of leave one of his friends as shown with usopp.

I think this thread will probably rustle someones jimmies...

I'm not taking strength in account but what roles and action each character has done, yes everyone in the crew has does their part as best they could some better than others, just what luffy said made me feel does luffy really love other members more than others?

 

[Punk Hazard]

Luffy isn't becoming Pirate King if any one of them leaves.

I think luffy needs everyone in the SH crew equally. Every individual provides something that will be nessicary to achieve the rank of pirate king. Not everything is measured in combat.
Nami is an exceptional navigator and cartographer, a skill set that is invaluable on the grand line.

Chopper is a doctor that has saved many lives countless time's, just because he couldn't stop a poison doesn't mean he isn't valuable.

Nico Robin is the only reason they can even find one piece.

Franky is desciple to the PK ship wright , and designed, built and maintains an extraordinary ship, capable of the impossible.

Brook is the heart and soul of the SH he is the entertainment, luffy went out if his way to find a musician and Brook provides that plus combat skills and a unique DF

Sanji is the 3rd strongest (arguably second soon) SH, and a cook that keeps the crew nourished and able to fight at peak condition.

Ussop covers everything ranged, sniping and being able to accurately fire cannons or other ranged weapons is extremely useful at sea or in combat.

Zorro is second in command and second strongest, flat but still useful.

No one obtains pirate king alone, luffy needs sanji just as much as Franky and chopper.

If Brook left it wouldn't affect anybody tbh, he's a prop at best.

Nami would be one of the most important ones, if not the most important. You didn't mention her. Franky is a shipwright, so he keeps Sunny Go maintained, or do you want a repeat of the Going Merry?

Brook played significant roles in the battle vs Oars and will obviously play a huge role in this arc. Brook relatively JUST joined. You're not giving it enough time. It's obvious Oda wouldn't have a crew member who's good for nothing but being an ornament

 

[Vandenre1ch]

Zoro- is the 2nd strongest
Nami- without her, they'll all die. They almost died without Nami going to Zou
Usopp- important for ship battles with other crews which is something the SHs haven't done yet.
Sanji- without him, Luffy will starve to death
Chopper- everyone is ****ed without him unless they become the safest people ever.
Robin- needs her to get to raftel
Franky- keeps the ship from sinking
Brooke- to be continued.......

 

[Wrappering_]

Luffy doesn't any of them, as long as he's got Trafalgar "boya" D Law with him he can achieve the status of "Pirate king."

 

[Venomous Cobra]

Luffys statement doesn't put Sanji on a special regard, the statement is there to create a comparison between Judge/vinsmokes and Luffy on Sanjis true worth to induce even more feels.

Yall always tryna have yall faves above others lmao

But that just proves he can leave right now and it wouldn't really change much.

Every strawhat is balanced in what they provide in combat to what role they have in the crew. Zoro's role in the crew is not really anything aside from combat thus he is the 2nd strongest.

If you're gonna have a frivolous role regarding the crew's survival, then you have to make it up in combat but then he isn't anything special there either, pretty replaceable.

Given enough time anyone can do something of worth but that doesn't make them crucial in any way.

>Will play a major role in this arc

Yeah, okay, buddy.

Well it wouldn't have been him there it would have just been another SH, since what he's doing isn't really something special to him. Not that hard to understand.

Has knowledge that none of the others have, and an ability that relates to Big Mom in a way unlike any other Strawhat. But yeah, "any SH would do it" is totally accurate. Good job, superstar.

Lets wait and see how it affects this arc, before we start confirming things like this. But by this logic against every Yonkou they would need an ability that relates to them. If it's not needed it's not crucial.

Something can be important for one arc and not important for another though. So no, this logic doesn't dictate that whatsoever.

This.


So far Brook is the only one who's role on the ship can be considered "unnecessary".. but as far as Luffy is concerned, it is necessary af. lol

Plus, like Riker said his DF powers have potential to come in very handy. It's all a matter of time.


OT: Luffy basically needs his whole crew to become Pirate King. Imo.

 

[Uzumaki Macho]

The most useless member is Brook, like ToshiZO and Vandenreich said.

About Franky his ability is making different weapons and Chopper is the doc...But Doc..can't help without proper equippments and medicines...
Robin for history purpose..
Nami for Navigation....
Brook is for music and for some under ground search operations I guess(in future we will need him doing those things)
