Absolutely. The truth is that Doflamingo is the glasses, and what we think of as Doflamingo is just a large string warrior he created. So him cracking is unequivocally sign of Luffy's victory.

This is not on the topic of DD or anything, but hear me out!
Has it been discussed that the strawhat Luffy is wearing might be the same Roger was wearing when he was young? We've seen only one scene of Roger's youth and he was wearing the strawhat, and afterwards he is already the captain and wears the captain's hat with Shanks wearing a strawhat. What if Roger and Shanks have a backstory somewhat similar to Luffy and Shanks, with Roger possibly saving Shanks, liking his spirit, recruiting him and handing the hat to him. Thoughts?

At this point it would be surprising if it isnt the same. I think its very heavily implied but not sure if its confirmed in any interview or smth. As for the backstory, could be possible of course, maybe we will see a short flashback in a few years when luffy finally returns the hat to shanks.

Thoughts? i thought everyone thought this already its pretty obvious to me that the current generation of pirates are all pretty much modeled after the older generation luffy = roger coby = garp (not luffys level yet but i can see the rivalry dynamic mixed with respect) law = whitebeard (could be kidd but theres a good chance luffy doesnt share a mutual respect for kidd like roger and whitebeard did) zoro = rayleigh thousand sunny = rogers ship (forgot name, but same material etc etc)
only character that doesnt have a 'predecessor' is blackbeard. unless we count shiki?

thousand sunny = Oro Jackson Golden Lion = Blackbeard

It has been confirmed that it is the same straw hat with Rayleigh saying it fit Luffy.

More going with the worst generation of rookies being the ones to step in, BB feels a bit to old to be apart of the new generation but too young to be in the old one so he is kind of in the middle ground and doesn't really have someones will he is carrying, Might be why Whitebeard said to him "At leat I know it's not you, Teach" or something like that. He carries the name of D but doesn't carry the will.
I feel like Coby will end of following more the Aokiji route then Garp's. Kinda of loosing faith inthe marines justice. Whereas Sentomaru has been shown to respect Luffy in the same way Garp respected Roger. Don't know just a feeling I get.

I feel like Smoker is more Luffy's Garp than Coby. Garp cornered Roger several times, as Smoker has done to Luffy. Coby might be something in the future, but right now he doesn't fit the mold.

Smoker is 100% Luffy's Garp
|
No he is not. I dont think Garp was a chump when he was on Smoker's age.
Smoker got beaten in every arc he featured in New World.

If Smoker is a chump what does that make Colby then? He probably can't even beat New World Fodder at this point. Smoker actually has a similar relationship with Luffy that Garp did with Roger, while Colby really really likes Luffy and is basically a closet fanboy.

This almost sounded like you spamming random posts on op thread. I guess 8.6k posts not enough for you.

Coby is also a chump.

Meh I think Sentomaru makes more sense as Luffy's Garp. He cornered Luffy, doesn't seem like a chump and respects Luffy greatly without being a fanboy about it.
Smoker could, he does have more of that friendly aspect where at the end Luffy could trust him as much as his crew lik Roger did with Garp etc. But Smoker does not seem strong enough right now. Granted we really haven't seen how strong Sentomaru is either but we have yet to see him get his ass kicked.
|
I agree with smoker being more like luffy's garp than coby. Mainly because the one time they fought it was just for fun at water 7. Smoker on the other hand has been pursuing luffy since Logue town. Smoker is also starting to develop mutual respect toward luffy just as garp had shown to Roger as demonstrated in the flashback between the two.
|
Smoker didn't lose against Vergo, they were tied and he took a dive in order to get Law's heart back. So he's like 0-1-2. But the opponents he lost to were two shichibukai which are some of the strongest pirates in the world.

We still haven't found out why DD was interested in Momonosuke. It was only a line or two from DD saying he saw Momo and then everyone assumed Momo must be important. Two reasons he could be important one is the artificial DF that gives him a seemingly weak Zoan and the other is whatever incident made Momo fear DD hinted when Momo saved Luffy from the pit while hallucinating DD.
There are a lot of other things I want to see wrapped up, but who knows if DD being beaten even means the end of his plot. He could escape on his own or with aid. He's important or wanted by a lot of powerful people such as Kaido and the World Nobles.

Vergo dominated the fight.
