#Mainly because it'd be humiliating for Crocodile and Mihawk and arguably they'd slightly deserve it after bullying Buggy so much

I keep on seeing people mention how they want to see another Davy Back Fight during the Final Saga, and while I'm 10000% sure we won't see another Davy Back Fight

Unironically

I think a Davy Back Fight between the Strawhats and Cross Guild could be fucking hysterical

Especially because like. Buggy could totally challenge Luffy intentionally, desperately hoping that either Luffy will save HIM from Crocodile and Mihawk, OR that Luffy ends up taking Croc and Hawk into his crew if he wins

(Sidenote, DBF is normally only about exchanging crewmates and stealing pirate flags, but could you imagine if Buggy could demand to have Luffy's copies of the Road Poneglyphs if he won? Hell, I imagine Buggy could probably get away with innitiating the challenge regardless because once it's on, it's on, and surely his men would be so riled up Croc and Hawk would know there'd be no way to stop it anymore even though Buggy's not the true boss. But just to keep Croc and Hawk from trying to murder him on the spot Buggy could maybe suggest taking the Poneglyph copies as if it were a part of his plan from the begining)

And you know if Buggy challenged Luffy into a DBF Luffy might just accept??? Because it could be fun (in Luffy's mind)??? And it could be kind of on-brand for him to jump in on a challenge like that???

And yes

The idea of Luffy winning against Cross Guild in a DBF, resulting in fucking Mihawk and Sir Crocodile joining the Strawhats would be fucking hysterical man, and that alone makes me kinda want it

#Moon posting #OP Meta #Cross Guild #It's just that between CrocHawk and Buggy I honestly don't think Luffy would want Buggy on his crew #See: Luffy calling Buggy a loser #I mean I don't think he'd want Crocodile on his crew either #I could see Zoro being like ''hey let's grab Mihawk it'll be funny as hell'' and the others maybe being cool with it #And I could imagine them taking Galdino and Daz Bones too before even considdering Crocodile #Also hey this is where we once again get to the ''how does Luffy actually feel about Crocodile right now?'' question #Because. Under circumstances like these. I could see Luffy choosing Crocodile for his crew. #If for no other reason than *Oda being able to make it as funny as fucking imaginable* #The thing is that Cross Guild is an Evil Organization Under A Yonkou and not really a Pirate Crew??? #See: Chairman Buggy and not Captain Buggy #But??? I mean the opportunity for comedy could allow for some bending of the rules??? #I just think it'd be hysterical man #Mainly because it'd be humiliating for Crocodile and Mihawk and arguably they'd slightly deserve it after bullying Buggy so much #ALSO we could avoid having Cross Guild fight the Strawhats entirely and that'd be cool lmao #But alas. As much as I'd love the leisure of a funny arc like this. Don't think we're gonna get one. But it could be so funny
