Given what a gap Doflamingo would've left in that underworld market, and how cunning Crocodile is at taking advantage of situations on a large scale sense, I can see it. I could go so far to even see Crocodile "following" Luffy (as in following his progress such as we see him reading a newspaper about him) and immediately concludes that when he gets involved with Caesar and SMILES, that Luffy will be a large wrench in Doflamingo's operations and likely stop him as he stopped Croc. He could've planned it for a while and been part of the underworld already, but as soon as Luffy got involved his long-term plans became short-term, as I doubt he would underestimate Luffy again knowing all his feats, and instead of getting in the way of him, he just sees to pick up from where a villain Luffy beats up but probably remains more discreet to not get in his way anytime soon. Infact if Oda would wanna spin Crocodile to become "good", he could use all the criminal underworld strings to support the Revolutionary Army if they guarantee him power after the World Government is toppled down. Even then I can see him supporting them without "good" intentions and infact just wants enough chaos so he can rise and take the throne.
I think Crocodile is preparing for the Throne Wars. Considering how much of a schemer he is. I can kind of see it going something like this. All of the various factions line up with their full fleets. Crocodile rolls up with a relatively small fleet of the new Baroque Works. Right as Blackbeard calls to attack. Crocodile lights a cigar and casually orders "Mr. 1, it's time" and Daz Bones just fires a flare into the sky suddenly across all od the enemy fleets shouting and guns fire. A bunch of ships replace their faction flags with that of Baroque Works. A flash back reveals he had his agents infiltrate and instigate a series of mutinies, suddenly his fleet is twice the size and in the center of the enemy.
@@BlackangelKatakuri Now you say it. Considering how badly Croc wanted to he the one to take down Whitebeard I can see him trying to put down Blackbeard. Imagine that as the final Black Beard fight Luffy and Crocodile back shoulder to should against Blackbeard
Croco was aware that the fans are sleeping on him cuz he got his ass beat by no gears Luffy....so he made sure to square off with all the top tiers in marinford
@@serbianweatherman2385 Crocs killed him twice, but both times he was saved. The first by a random passerby. Second time by himself, but employing a tactic that should have scientifically failed. Robins betrayel of crocodile caused crocodile to be furious wich hindered his ability to properly use his powers. Against moria, there just happened to be a group there that captured and learned how to use shadows to upgrade luffy.
I love that Daz Bones is still with Crocodile when Daz was one of the ones that was first disgusted to find out he was working for a pirate the whole time. Remember, Daz was a bounty hunter at first.
I don't think Daz was disgusted, just suprised. There's also a theory he knew Croco before the Baroque Works because (don't quote me on this) apparently, when he asks "You are our boss?" in Japanese, he uses a type of "you" that is okay/polite for people you know well, but rude for people you aren't extremely familiar with. Definitely something you wouldn't refer to your boss by if he didn't know Crocodile before, but again, i could be wrong
I have a theory that maybe the ability to use haki can be lost temporarily through a broken spirit . Maybe his failure to kill Whitebeard and loss of his arm made him lose the ability to use haki so now he needs to re learn it
He is my favorite character, the ultimate protagonist. I really hope he comes back in the story soon or at least have a really good moment in the final war. It could be very nice if he came back in Elbaf!
Sir Crocodile is one of my all-time favorite One Piece characters and I hope that he will play a major/significant role in the conclusion of the Series. He should at minimum have Armorment and Observation Haki, best case scenario (in my opinion), he is an awakened devil-fruit user, has a bounty of 1.1 Billion and is on par with an Admiral. But realistically speaking I think Tekkings bounty range (700-900 Million) is quite accurate.
@@Whats_your_motivational he can make a one hit kill with that skill in pretty much any character, yonkou, admirals, it doesnt matter.. Crocodile its underrated
Tambem Acho I’ve been saying that since I first saw the sand death scythe. Looks bad ass the result is instant death and terror for one else who saw that but then had to fight him
I’ve been watching Tekking 101 for about a year now. I’ve watched all of his videos, even the ones that predates 1 year ago when I started watching Tekking. This whole time I never noticed his subscribers numbers! For some reason I automatically assumed he has at least a million subscribers but he doesn’t and I’m shocked. He’s great at what he does, he should have at least 1 million subscribers!
I really want crocodile to have a major arc coming because he’s such a sick character and there’s such mystery surrounding him like wtf bro why you got a claw!??...and other things...
Honestly Crocodile is most definitely an awakened Logia. I mean for one that sandstorm was created literally in the palm in his hand, and was implied he was purposefully bombarding Yuba regularly. we saw him dehydrate humans gras, and breaking the very stone into sand. And It's not concrete but isn't it a little weird that the rains started to fall almost immediately, as if some outside force was keeping it from raining. But Oda just didn't want to reveal awakenings yet.
I would say that Crocodile would have the bounty of 810mil berries. Because his original bounty is 81mil so they may as well just add an extra 0. Plus 810mil is pretty big
@@megajor232 That doesn't mean much, there's about 8 years between Roger reading about Oden traveling with Whitebeard to the day Roger got executed, plenty of time for Crocodile to have met Oden.

There is a point that a lot of people forget that at the end of the drum island arc logia ability to manipulate weather and change it permanently was show when the Bull-guy talked about ace where he first mentioned he said that a guy came to this island and on that day it didn't snow and wasn't that cold and we later found about ace's devil fruit being fire and heat and later in Arabasta Crocodile changed roof top of castle to sand and when he was defeated and unconscious the rain started to Drop again that was a hint on him having his devil fruit awakened or maybe close to it as it was clear that he has been changing the weather of Arabasta for THREE WHOLE YEARS and that is the reason he probably wasn't that strong or couldn't show his full strength .
It would be cool if Crocodile would lead a Revolutionary like group/organisation.. But the chaotic evil kind.. Just like how Blackbeard is the opposite of Luffy. Crocodile could be the opposite of Dragon.. I do not want to compare Crocodile and Dragon power wise.. But I can really see him in that kind of chaotic-evil revolution setting, in order to gain power.
you know i could honestly see Crocodile as being like frezia was at the end of the tournament of power, he has'nt change his ways and he's still scheming, but not rushing to take over the world right then and there.
You know how people have been talking about how dangerous it would be if the Warlords created a pirate alliance after it was abolished? Maybe Crocodile could be the one to gather them up. He is no stranger to recruiting people from all walks of life or running an organization, maybe he saw in the paper that the Warlords were abolished and he decided they could really bolster his chances against the Yonko. So it is possible that he had plans to gather strong cutthroats during those two years but this news was the catalyst to put Crocodile back into action sooner than he may have initially wanted.
Now that you mention it, Oda and especially anime department have really rubbed it in that Crocodile is a serious player even in stage like Marineford war. I never really thought about it. He did receive quite a lot of screen time and clashes with big names for a guy that was defeated early in the Paradise saga. I agree that he's going to have a role in final battles. Not a major one, just kinda of a independent wild card
Random thought: if Luffy would go to war who all would show? Like a Kado war in the name of Luffy good nature war. Him being Luffy fighting for one freedom or self righteous fight. I would love seeing the kraken back into the main story.
Honestly, imagine that sand blade coming out of the ground... but with haki. Akainu would currently be dead. I feel like people are sleeping on Crocodile's individual power, before you even look at his planning and intelligence. If this guy has learned some serious Haki in these two years -- like how Luffy developed the variations of Gear Fourth -- we might have a monster on our hands.
Crocodile was indeed aware of haki during his fight with luffy. *Luffy punches Crocodile* Crocodile’s thoughts with surprised look: What?! No,it can’t be h- *sees luffy’s blood dripping from his hand creating moisture*
No doubt cocordile was very strong and the reason behind that he not learning haki was because his ego was hurt by his opponents every time telling that logia users are coky . So despite having talent and knowing importance of haki he didn't learn haki was just to show that he get strong without haki. Now that after battle with lufy being his ass beaten now he would put his ego aside. Now he will surely learn haki .That's no big deal for him. His power upgrade: 1: awakening (changes weather at any place and time) 2: black sand with armament haki 3: creates soilders of sand if sand is infused with sea water if opponents figures his weaknesses with water 4: if ALREADY IN DESEART OR DRY ARE WITHOUT NEED TO CHANGE THEM TO DESERT HE WILL BE ADMIRAL LEVEL. 4:HAS SOME OF SMART IMPEL DOWN PRISONERS WORKING UNDER HIM.
Lets just be honest in believing that haki wasn’t really a concept at alabasta because it would make no sense for a new world vet to not know haki and become a warlord the pre timeskip lineup for warlords was to elite for him not to know it
@@MIKEZMAJEK Well oda has a habitat of adding these concepts later on but eneru & his team knew haki before the timeskip but it wasn't called haki but mantra instead
16:18 i was thinking about that exact scene in kill bill during your description (i had just finished watching it 3 days ago) before you mentioned kill bill 😭
Katakuri's bakery, when? I was waiting for a video based on Crocodile for so long... Aaaaah. I feel blessed. BTW: aside from it, I always thought about him coming back and --- team up with Luffy against a Yonko? If he awakened his fruit, he can easily set a sand storm there and interfere with all the fights on Wano. We've seen Crocodile watching Luffy's improvements, so I think he knows how powerful the boy is and they've already teamed up at Marineford. Maybe, I think, he used those 2 years to train a little more, with Mr 1, perhaps. I think we won't see him alone but with one or more allies.
I've always had this theory that Crocodile is actually Luffy's uncle, no relation to Garp or Dragon, I think he's the brother of Luffy's mum. When he's a teen in the SBS cover he looks extremely similar to Luffy, but a more cooler version I guesa and Oda did state that Croc was actually the most similar to Luffy before he lost his crew to WB. Also, why did he save Ace at marinefold and protect Luffy multiple times after his talk with Ivankov in Impel Down... I have so many more questions and possible evidence, so we'll see what happens, but I think Oda is planting the seeds before our eyes or he's a possible D lol maybe both
@@kizaru6701 It was Crocodile, Oda said personality wise they were the same when Croc was younger, but I'm guessing after Croc lost his hand and his crew in the New World he changed
@@BlackangelKatakuri People are focusing too much on him being a female because of his connection to Ivankov, but I think the actual secret is something to do with Luffy or the revolutionary army lol I mean why would Croc associate with transgenders if that was his secret ahah that's so dumb!
Sweet Karma Yeah I don’t think he used to be female but I could see him having become female temporarily so as to hide and then when the coast was clear he returned to being a man . I don’t however
Firstly, Crocodile needs to learn Armament Haki and Observation Haki, at least to Level 2. Else, no point moving to Laugh Tale, just to get wasted by Luffy...
Hey Tekking! Great videoas always!! Have you ever thought doing a video on "How did Shanks become a Yonko?". Because unlike a Kaido, Big Mom or White Beard, his position is a bit different. He wasn't part of the Rocks pirates (ok he was part of Roger's, but at a very young age!), he doesn't have a devil fruit that can single handedly level an army (doesn't have any in fact!) and he has a very small crew. I know in previous videos you've talked about WHEN he may have became a Yonko, but never HOW I think that'd make a great theory video! :)
Crocodile teaming up with Bege would be the ultimate mafia team up, also if crocodile put a fuck ton of sand in Beges body he would essentially become Garra, as well as not taking damage/ having his home base inside of him and being able to more discreetly enter locations with minimal threat, I think it would be amazing.
My idea is that when the battle royal for raftel(we know that's going to happen) he will show up to be a wild card most likely siding with who ever he thinks has the best chance of winning who'll probably be the straw hats but he might betray them or form a alliance with them depending on what's revealed at raftel.
Their will be a battle royale but I think It will be an all out war 4 major sides most likely Pirates, World Gov Marines, and this is just a theory but I feel like enel will come back and contind for the op as well or if not he'll be there to test his might against the pirates that luffy said would clap him
You said that they reserve billion beri bounties for people under Yonko and people who have directly attacked Yonko and got out alive like Luffy, but Crocodile has directly attacked a Yonko and gotten out alive. TWICE. With Whitebeard, the strongest man in the world! Also, Moria “fought,” got obliterated, by Kaido, but managed to get out alive also
@@crocodile6064 though with Kidd it's more just being stupid rather than causing a blow and getting away with it. Luffy had a fair amount of luck and help but he was able to cause a fair amount of damage to Totland and Big Moms rep.
I feel like he thinks Nico Robin want lying now but because Nico Robin won't tell him what's on the poneglyph he gave up on that plan since she's the only person who can read it.
I wonder if Crocodile is trying to get in on the Underworld market Doffy once controlled, or mediated. That would be really interesting to see now that Doffy got taken out. Because, like a Bond villain, he has more connections to this idea of the silent organization, the manipulative one behind the shrouds of conspiracy, so a mafia style wouldn't really suit him.
It's interesting how detailed and distinctive the background is in that Panel. Oda does not really do things for little reason. Could be interesting for fans to see if they can find something that matches.
I like the idea of Bountyhunters. I've asked myself often why the criminals and pirates all get these high Bounties but we never see Hunters coming after them, especially any strong ones. The Bounties are pretty much just an indication on how much the WG is hating these people and nothing else.
The way I see it, in the near future (in OP actual time) the Straw Hats are due for a LOGIA and candidate wise it's 1. Caesar 2. Crocodile 3. Enel (Caesar more likely because his ambition and him being a scientist)
Everyone who gets their asses beaten by luffy: let’s start a bakery. When they meet: global bakery Yeah when straw hat comes in the bakery: waiters: yes have whatever you want
I think he's building his crew and waiting for someone to find the one piece. When the epic war happens, that's when he will make his move. So for the time being, I think he's just laying low like Black Beard.
Crocodile probably has a bounty of 400 to 500 million right now, mostly based on his history with Baroque Works and escape from Impel Down. The World Government probably doesn't know how close he was to obtaining one of the ancient weapons and it doesn't seem like him and Daz Bones have done anything major since escaping to the New World. I do think Crocodile has built up a new crew, though. I think the Marines are more worried about Boa, Mihawk, Weevil, and Buggy (and Law and Jinbe and Blackbeard) right now than trying to track Crocodile or Moriah. Attacking Tottoland would be absolutely insane. The moment Big Mom gets back from Wano (because I feel she will live but Kaido will die), she will murder anyone who tried to takeover during her absence. Croc definitely won't do it. Maybe Blackbeard (and the Marines if they weren't so overstretched right now) would do it, but nobody else is going to do that. Why attack a Yonko when he could kill a Celestial Dragon instead? It'd be a huge thing to do, he could do it at Sabaody instead of somewhere in the New World, it could be considered "heroic" so Daz Bones' dream of being a hero could still fit given the situation of killing the Celestial Dragon (i.e. maybe the Celestial Dragon was about to murder some of their slaves in public just because they can, but Croc and Daz come in and kill the Celestial Dragon(s) instead). Regardless, killing a Celestial Dragon is probably enough to warrant a 100 million berry bounty leap on its own and would be worldwide news.

You know how people have been talking about how dangerous it would be if the Warlords created a pirate alliance after it was abolished? Maybe Crocodile could be the one to gather them up. He is no stranger to recruiting people from all walks of life or running an organization, maybe he saw in the paper that the Warlords were abolished and he decided they could really bolster his chances against the Yonko. So it is possible that he had plans to gather strong cutthroats during those two years but this news was the catalyst to put Crocodile back into action sooner than he may have initially wanted.
Crocodile could be devastating even now especially if he’s awakened. Man I want to see him more
Now that you mention it, Oda and especially anime department have really rubbed it in that Crocodile is a serious player even in stage like Marineford war. I never really thought about it. He did receive quite a lot of screen time and clashes with big names for a guy that was defeated early in the Paradise saga. I agree that he's going to have a role in final battles. Not a major one, just kinda of a independent wild card
Tekking eat a snickers you think of bakeries when you're hungry.
Random thought: if Luffy would go to war who all would show? Like a Kado war in the name of Luffy good nature war. Him being Luffy fighting for one freedom or self righteous fight. I would love seeing the kraken back into the main story.
Crocodile will always and forever be my favorite villain in one piece, probably in all the animes I've watched so far
Honestly, imagine that sand blade coming out of the ground... but with haki. Akainu would currently be dead. I feel like people are sleeping on Crocodile's individual power, before you even look at his planning and intelligence. If this guy has learned some serious Haki in these two years -- like how Luffy developed the variations of Gear Fourth -- we might have a monster on our hands.
Croc's plan is to finally quit smoking
Crocodile was indeed aware of haki during his fight with luffy.
*Luffy punches Crocodile*
Crocodile’s thoughts with surprised look: What?! No,it can’t be h-
*sees luffy’s blood dripping from his hand creating moisture*
Tot land is pretty unguarded
Crocoboy: it's free real estate.
No doubt cocordile was very strong and the reason behind that he not learning haki was because his ego was hurt by his opponents every time telling that logia users are coky .
So despite having talent and knowing importance of haki he didn't learn haki was just to show that he get strong without haki.
Now that after battle with lufy being his ass beaten now he would put his ego aside.
Now he will surely learn haki .That's no big deal for him.
His power upgrade:
1: awakening (changes weather at any place and time)
2: black sand with armament haki
3: creates soilders of sand if sand is infused with sea water if opponents figures his weaknesses with water
4: if ALREADY IN DESEART OR DRY ARE WITHOUT NEED TO CHANGE THEM TO DESERT HE WILL BE ADMIRAL LEVEL.
4:HAS SOME OF SMART IMPEL DOWN PRISONERS WORKING UNDER HIM.
I'd love for the strawhat crew to run into crocodile again and for Sanji to refuse to fight against "him" but not say why 😂
The real question is, would you rather eat a croissant from arlong's bakery or crocodile's
Sir Crocodile's new plan in the new world: Finding Ivankov and forcing him to transform him back to Ma'am Crocodile
Well whatever hes doing now lets hope hes learning haki along with mr 1 he could really benefit from armanent haki
He probably did and someone as smart as he is could master haki in two years even further than Luffy has he’s probably got conquerors too
@@BlackangelKatakuri Ya if so i could imagine crocodile's awakening ability that would be awesome
pflynn12 Someone as smart as crocodile could likely master haki in a much shorter amount of time than Luffy will .
Lets just be honest in believing that haki wasn’t really a concept at alabasta because it would make no sense for a new world vet to not know haki and become a warlord the pre timeskip lineup for warlords was to elite for him not to know it
@@MIKEZMAJEK Well oda has a habitat of adding these concepts later on but eneru & his team knew haki before the timeskip but it wasn't called haki but mantra instead
16:18 i was thinking about that exact scene in kill bill during your description (i had just finished watching it 3 days ago) before you mentioned kill bill 😭
2:34 Does that mean Buggy's bounty was frozen at 15 million?
Buggy is different casw
not rlz, i guess after the escape of impel down, he got quite the raise on his bounty
Katakuri's bakery, when?
I was waiting for a video based on Crocodile for so long... Aaaaah. I feel blessed.
BTW: aside from it, I always thought about him coming back and --- team up with Luffy against a Yonko? If he awakened his fruit, he can easily set a sand storm there and interfere with all the fights on Wano.
We've seen Crocodile watching Luffy's improvements, so I think he knows how powerful the boy is and they've already teamed up at Marineford.
Maybe, I think, he used those 2 years to train a little more, with Mr 1, perhaps.
I think we won't see him alone but with one or more allies.
I've always had this theory that Crocodile is actually Luffy's uncle, no relation to Garp or Dragon, I think he's the brother of Luffy's mum. When he's a teen in the SBS cover he looks extremely similar to Luffy, but a more cooler version I guesa and Oda did state that Croc was actually the most similar to Luffy before he lost his crew to WB. Also, why did he save Ace at marinefold and protect Luffy multiple times after his talk with Ivankov in Impel Down... I have so many more questions and possible evidence, so we'll see what happens, but I think Oda is planting the seeds before our eyes or he's a possible D lol maybe both
Didn't Oda state that Moria was similar to Luffy before he lost his crew to Kaido?
@@kizaru6701 It was Crocodile, Oda said personality wise they were the same when Croc was younger, but I'm guessing after Croc lost his hand and his crew in the New World he changed
That I could definitely see
@@BlackangelKatakuri People are focusing too much on him being a female because of his connection to Ivankov, but I think the actual secret is something to do with Luffy or the revolutionary army lol I mean why would Croc associate with transgenders if that was his secret ahah that's so dumb!
Sweet Karma Yeah I don’t think he used to be female but I could see him having become female temporarily so as to hide and then when the coast was clear he returned to being a man . I don’t however
crocodile becomes one of the emperors of the underworld
6:29 no tekking when youtube doesn't work out be a geography teacher
The final arc of one piece title:
The great Briti- One piece villains bake off.
Firstly, Crocodile needs to learn Armament Haki and Observation Haki, at least to Level 2. Else, no point moving to Laugh Tale, just to get wasted by Luffy...
What if some of the old members of the whitebeard crew join crocodile
Plot twist: Crocodiles new plan is joining the Straw Hat fleet and making sure Luffy becomes the King of the Pirates!
Crocodile bounty: 600-800mill
Open up a new baking channel. BAKING101 😂
I like to think of him as luffy's uncle, like brother of luffy's mom , why saving him multiple time and ace at Marineford ...
Croco D ile
Ibou Ndao and he raped Luffy twice in the alabasta arc, qualifying him for the title of uncle.
Ace isn't Luffy's real brother tho.
I doubt that that would happen, but according to Buggy, Rayleigh is Luffy‘s uncle.
AttackCrash07 And yet they have a resemblance heck Luffy looks nothing like Garp or Dragon he looks more like Roger than those two .
Or dragons brother cause he kinda looks a little bit like him
Crocidile is guranteed to return, we need hear about his secret with ivankov!
Really looking forward to that
Tekking still has the mustache on the light switch from the whitebeard video
Hey Tekking! Great videoas always!! Have you ever thought doing a video on "How did Shanks become a Yonko?". Because unlike a Kaido, Big Mom or White Beard, his position is a bit different. He wasn't part of the Rocks pirates (ok he was part of Roger's, but at a very young age!), he doesn't have a devil fruit that can single handedly level an army (doesn't have any in fact!) and he has a very small crew.
I know in previous videos you've talked about WHEN he may have became a Yonko, but never HOW
I think that'd make a great theory video! :)
Tekking you always come with the BEST topics for this show, that’s why I love yo-IT!
Crocodile teaming up with Bege would be the ultimate mafia team up, also if crocodile put a fuck ton of sand in Beges body he would essentially become Garra, as well as not taking damage/ having his home base inside of him and being able to more discreetly enter locations with minimal threat, I think it would be amazing.
The first thing I would do if I got a crew is.... Start a bakery
I think a Jewelry store would better fit Crocodile. He's also planning to take revenge on Nami and Robin for taking away his jewels
One Piece spin-off: every villain starts a bakery and we get one piece villain shokugeki au. would watch/ read
My idea is that when the battle royal for raftel(we know that's going to happen) he will show up to be a wild card most likely siding with who ever he thinks has the best chance of winning who'll probably be the straw hats but he might betray them or form a alliance with them depending on what's revealed at raftel.
Their will be a battle royale but I think It will be an all out war 4 major sides most likely Pirates, World Gov Marines, and this is just a theory but I feel like enel will come back and contind for the op as well or if not he'll be there to test his might against the pirates that luffy said would clap him
Second half is just a theory
Throughout this video, I could hear Sir Crocodile's laughter echoing in my mind.
Crocodile is what you call a dark horse
“Imma open a bakery”
That was some funny s*!#!
Lmao
I’m a 38yr old man and throughly enjoy your content.
Keep it up!
You said that they reserve billion beri bounties for people under Yonko and people who have directly attacked Yonko and got out alive like Luffy, but Crocodile has directly attacked a Yonko and gotten out alive. TWICE. With Whitebeard, the strongest man in the world! Also, Moria “fought,” got obliterated, by Kaido, but managed to get out alive also
Your forgetting Eustass Kid who fought big mom, shanks, and kaido.
@@crocodile6064 though with Kidd it's more just being stupid rather than causing a blow and getting away with it. Luffy had a fair amount of luck and help but he was able to cause a fair amount of damage to Totland and Big Moms rep.
I feel like he thinks Nico Robin want lying now but because Nico Robin won't tell him what's on the poneglyph he gave up on that plan since she's the only person who can read it.
I was waiting for this one
I wonder if Crocodile is trying to get in on the Underworld market Doffy once controlled, or mediated. That would be really interesting to see now that Doffy got taken out. Because, like a Bond villain, he has more connections to this idea of the silent organization, the manipulative one behind the shrouds of conspiracy, so a mafia style wouldn't really suit him.
It's interesting how detailed and distinctive the background is in that Panel. Oda does not really do things for little reason. Could be interesting for fans to see if they can find something that matches.
I like the idea of Bountyhunters.
I've asked myself often why the criminals and pirates all get these high Bounties but we never see Hunters coming after them, especially any strong ones.
The Bounties are pretty much just an indication on how much the WG is hating these people and nothing else.
The way I see it, in the near future (in OP actual time) the Straw Hats are due for a LOGIA and candidate wise it's 1. Caesar 2. Crocodile 3. Enel (Caesar more likely because his ambition and him being a scientist)
Everyone who gets their asses beaten by luffy: let’s start a bakery. When they meet: global bakery
Yeah when straw hat comes in the bakery: waiters: yes have whatever you want
He's one of my fav characters. It's def been enough time for him to have learned haki.
I think he's building his crew and waiting for someone to find the one piece. When the epic war happens, that's when he will make his move. So for the time being, I think he's just laying low like Black Beard.
He could also just tell the truth about who defeated him now.
Maybe Crocodile must have heard gossip about Cyborg Franky burning Pluton blueprints.
Crocodile probably has a bounty of 400 to 500 million right now, mostly based on his history with Baroque Works and escape from Impel Down. The World Government probably doesn't know how close he was to obtaining one of the ancient weapons and it doesn't seem like him and Daz Bones have done anything major since escaping to the New World. I do think Crocodile has built up a new crew, though. I think the Marines are more worried about Boa, Mihawk, Weevil, and Buggy (and Law and Jinbe and Blackbeard) right now than trying to track Crocodile or Moriah.
Attacking Tottoland would be absolutely insane. The moment Big Mom gets back from Wano (because I feel she will live but Kaido will die), she will murder anyone who tried to takeover during her absence. Croc definitely won't do it. Maybe Blackbeard (and the Marines if they weren't so overstretched right now) would do it, but nobody else is going to do that.
Why attack a Yonko when he could kill a Celestial Dragon instead? It'd be a huge thing to do, he could do it at Sabaody instead of somewhere in the New World, it could be considered "heroic" so Daz Bones' dream of being a hero could still fit given the situation of killing the Celestial Dragon (i.e. maybe the Celestial Dragon was about to murder some of their slaves in public just because they can, but Croc and Daz come in and kill the Celestial Dragon(s) instead). Regardless, killing a Celestial Dragon is probably enough to warrant a 100 million berry bounty leap on its own and would be worldwide news.
I have waited for this video !!!!!! So understated ! After marine Ford we know there’s big things with him !
Build the biggest sandcastle!
🐊 might replace doffy in the underworld then take over a few countries and then... Idk you finish the sentence.
Tekking,you predicted this I am from the future,currently in chapter 1049, not sure if revealed if it is crocodile invading tôt land or germa but u predicted this 🤯🤯😮
I’m so depressed right now. Thank you for making my day a little better
For a future Death Battle/1 Min Melee, I want Crocodile vs Anakin Skywalker.
