One Piece - I'm Gonna Be the Pirate King!

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Watching that 3D2Y special made me realize that I really miss seeing Boa Hancock fight. I'm so looking forward to her reappearing in the final battle and just kicking ass. And Buggy, too, of course. I hope Mike McFarland doesn't kill his voice before then, he'll likely officially retire once One Piece is over.

Also lol I just noticed today's my eighth anniversary of watching One Piece. Was my maiden voyage really that long ago?
 
Just saying, the guy Luffy crushes at Shell Town easily is not going to be even fodder in the NW. Oda said that Morgan would be Lieutenant level for the Grand Line. That is nothing. In the NW, 100.000 Berry bounties are nothing. He would not be fodder, he would be grass being fed to the lawn mower. BB can grab randos from the street and they would be stronger than Morgan.
Yeah, and that was a long time ago, and Coby and Helpemmo were both weaker than Axe hand..and are now New World level so Old Morgan might have gotten his ass in gear too.

His strength was fine for East Blue, he did not need to gain much more power in order to rule there now that the big players have left. Buggy is gone, Kuro is gone, Krieg is gone, Arlong is gone. He never had ambition beyond being a small town tyrant and lack of ambition correlates with lack of growth in strength in OP.

Even fodder can have its uses. Look at Usopp...

Usopp is no fodder. He is a god-tier sniper. He is not expected to fight melee. Morgan is a rather weak fighter. No one would recruit him and he would not survive a day in the NW. Usopp has his uses, Morgan does not. Not in Paradise and especially not in NW. He would have been eaten alive at Fishman Island.

The issue is that he’s like Krillin: he’s got skills that are impressive, but he gets overshadowed by the real heavy hitters of the group. Much like non monster straw hats…and maybe Sanji.

The argument is that Morgan has no skills that would make him worth keeping around in a NW crew. 90% of the mooks would be stronger than him and unlike Usopp or Chopper, he does not have a skill that makes him necessary. He is just a sub-par middle-aged combatant with little room to grow and a hypnotic command that makes him see himself as a demigod of martial prowess.
 
Add the other Straw Hat members who are also in the same boat and you might be justified.

As it is you are targeting the messiah alone. Just demand Barabbas be freed while you are at it :)
Usopp is the only strawhat who got weaker after the timeskip. Went from being able to 1v1 Luffy in Water 7 to getting his ass handed to him by a housecat in Elbaf.

Usopp could only stall him from attacking at best. Luffy folded him in 2 blows
