This article contains spoilers from the One Piece series.
In the last saga of a pieceThe Straw Hat Pirates are now almost complete, Luffy is just looking for a few people to join the crew. currently, There are many contenders for the final Straw Hat spotwith Princess Vivi Being one of them, and also Bonnie Oda himself is thrown into the mix. However, the most likely candidate for this position in the Straw Hat Pirates is none other than that Prince of Elbaf, Lokiwho has played an important role in the story so far and will continue to do so.
Say hello to the only current one piece pirate who can defeat Imu
Emu is strong, but this one pirate has the ability to defeat him in one piece.
Of all the existing Straw Hat candidates, Loki has the most to offer the team as a very powerful fighting force, but more than that, an ally who can unite the giants with Luffy. This is his special importance Loki is an important character in the final saga and if he goes to join the crewHe takes them to the next level, which is what they want if they want to conquer the seas.
With such great power, Loki will easily become the strongest Yonko in Luffy's One Piece world.
Loki is next in line to join the Straw Hat Pirates
It's no secret at this point Loki is next in line to join the Straw Hat Pirates a piece. In the Elbaf arc, he is being established as the next Straw Hat, and more importantly, Luffy himself asked Loki to join his team.
Luffy and Loki hit it off immediately After the meeting, and it goes without saying that Luffy is a great judge of character. If Luffy trusts Loki, he doesn't care what anyone says about him.
Hey, I'm talking to you. I am the sun god embodied in the legends of this land. You don't speak to me without permission, human. I consider myself the strongest living in the country. This is the Land of War, Elbaf's kingdom of violence. The most powerful nation in the world that once lived and breathed war. And I am the Sun God who ends the world, Loki! — Loki introducing himself in the Elbaf arc.
That's why he asks Loki to ride Sunny, and even though Loki declines the offer, fans are well aware that there's still a big possibility that it's still going to happen.
Loki is even more likely to join the Straw Hat Pirates because the entire country of Elbaf absolutely hates him.. He is an unwanted prince who is considered a curse by everyone, including his own family. No one but Luffy really wants Loki around, and once he's free, it makes sense for him to join Luffy.
Above all, Loki himself wanted to follow the Sun God as a child which will destroy the world. In fact, his whole reason for wanting to follow Rox was because he believed he was Nika. Once Loki learns that Luffy is Nica, it makes sense that he would want to follow him in the future.
Loki has the Conqueror's Haki and a legendary Devil's Fruit
As far as what Loki offers the Straw Hat Pirates, incredible strength is at the top of the list. Loki is one of the strongest characters in the One Piece world, and He has both Conqueror's Haki and a very strong Devil Fruit ability.
Loki himself said He can face the Immortality of the Holy Knights with the Haki of the ConquerorWhich is basically confirmation of the fact that he has this ability. On top of that, the fans know it too Loki ate the legendary Devil Fruit on the day Harald died 14 years agoAnd this increases his power even more.
King Harald passed after his battle with Loki. What you see is a battle scar. Loki is certainly strong but King Harald was also known as a great warrior in his own right. All this destruction was inevitable. The surviving members of the castle that day were Chief Zarul and Loki. – Rodo in battle at Aurust castle, 14 years ago
After 7 years, Oda finally reveals Emu's true presence in a piece
The true presence of the emu was a mystery, but Oda revealed it in one piece.
In all his years at sea the only character capable of defeating Loki was none other than the red haired Shanks. Loki is essentially a Yonko-level fighter And having him under Luffy would have made the Straw Hat Pirates the strongest crew at sea.
Loki would instantly become the strongest Yonko commander in One Piece
Of course, if Loki would join the Straw Hat PiratesHe becomes easily The strongest Yonko commander has ever existed. His power is unparalleled, and the way Oda portrays him shows that even the Yonko team is wary of his presence.
Loki is also the prince of the giants, and if all the wrong he's done is finally cleared up, they won't hesitate to go after him. in that sense, The entirety of Elbaf's giants will then aid themselves with the sun god NikaOr in other words, Luffy, giving him a huge army.
