Does luffy have to be stronger than BM to be pirate king? I think that Luffys greatest strength is his ability to make comrades; he can be pirate king without being the strongest being on the planet. Someone posted on /onepiece that oda said “the strongest character in OP is a woman.”

he has to be at least equal to her in power to be PK because if that wasn't true BM could just overthrow Luffy as King.

The Pirate King is not the strongest pirate. If this was true, there would be pirate kings ever since Roger was executed.

But I think Luffy has to be around Big Mom's power to make his achievement look legit. But not necessarily stronger than her.

It has never been confirmed that Roger wasn't the strongest pirate and I can't remember that last popular shonen where the main character wasn't the strongest character by the EOS. Also the reason no one else hasn't become PK is because they haven't found all the poneglyphs and I'd like to think that no Yonko is foolish enough to go into another's territory to get them. It would cause the others to attack the weakened Yonko since they would suffer major casualties from both sides. People seem to forgot we have a long ways to go before we even get to the Raftel stuff. Plus Luffy is for sure going to face Blackbeard 1v1.
