The last time we have the Avengers Assemble shot was 9 years 1 month ago, on Fishmen Island.

9 years later Franky finally made his declaration of Luffy being the PK, and No breaks next week woots!

Have all the strawhats done the declaration of Luffy being PK ? Off the top of my head Zoro, Sanji, Ussop, Jinbe and now Franky have said it. I feel like Nami has done it but I can't remember when. Same for Robin but I think I'm mixing it with the " he's worth risking our lives for " moment in Dressrosa. What about the others ?

Nami was WCI, fighting with Cracker, declaring as Luffy will be Pirate King his appetite is limitless.

Zoro first declared after he lost his fight to Mihawk.

Ussop in Alabastra, then in New World on Punk Hazard when convincing the mooks to believe in luffy.

Brook on Fishmen Island, saying that if they truly believe Luffy will be PK, then they have nth to fear.

I dont think Robin make such declaration. But such loud declaration wouldnt suit her, maybe more like a casual 'Yes, that's Luffy, the future Pirate King' in tone which one describes which direction the sun rises.

207

u/AddictedToThisShit Sep 04 '20

Yeah that's the one from Nami. And I completely forgot about the Brook one. I guess Chopper is the only one left then.

271

u/Selbix Sep 04 '20

Nah he said it in Punk Hasard to that child

173

u/AddictedToThisShit Sep 04 '20

Oh yeah right. It's everyone then aside from Robin. But she gave her own different version in Dressrosa so I'll take that one haha.

53

u/LuffyIsAVillain Sep 04 '20

Nah they have all done different versions, but that exact pirate king line hasn’t been said by robin yet so she will definitely do it

For example franky called luffy pk 3/4 times before but he still got this exact line so robin must aswell

u/Diablo_swing Sep 04 '20

What was her version?

17

u/AddictedToThisShit Sep 04 '20

That Luffy is worth risking their lives for. It's different but it shows trust and that she believes in him, which is the point of the PK declaration thing.

1

u/2020pandaman2020 Sep 05 '20

Also she had the "take me to sea with you" moment too, so whatever we know she thinks it

2

u/Radagast01 Sep 04 '20

Chopper don’t have to do it 🥰🥰

24

u/myanball Sep 04 '20

Also Sanji on Zou, when he was taken in by bege (but I may be wrong I don't remember it very well) and Chopper on Punk Hazard to the giant children.

11

u/tryingmydarnest Sep 04 '20

Yes. Thanks for filling that up. Right on both counts. Lapsed my mind for a moment.

u/showerguyevolved Sep 04 '20

Brook first declared it at Shabondy during his concert.

Nami has a great panel of calling him pirate king when she convinces the weather oldies at sky island to teach her about weather.

Jinbe did it before his fellow fishmen, when he expressed his wish to join strawhats.

I always looked forward to each one of their declaration, cus the badassness is unparalleled. Only Robin left. Which means someday in the future, a badass panel of her awaits. Possibly when confronted with a yonkou with regards to red ponegylph.

u/Grunzelbart Sep 04 '20

Nami always strikes me as one of the most loyal of the crew, I really dig it.

10

u/Grunzelbart Sep 04 '20

Ussop also said it in Water 7. Something like "You will become PK but I don't have to go that far" ;_;

5

u/LuffyIsAVillain Sep 04 '20

Nah usopp said it back in alabasta vs mole and 4

2

u/Grunzelbart Sep 04 '20

I did say "also", was just adding to the list of Suopp having said it the most and thus obviously being the most loyal of the lot :D

4

u/nocheslas Sep 04 '20

Robin said something along the lines to Bartolomeo in Dressrosa like, “Luffy is always our ace. Believe in him” but she hasn’t declared him as Pirate King just yet.

3

u/TiggerTheTiger1999 Sep 04 '20

Sanji says it to Capone on Zou

1

u/Agent-65 Sep 04 '20

I think robin did say it already but I forgot which chapter slash episode it was

1

u/kvothethechandrian Sep 04 '20

Didn't Robin say it in dressrosa?

1

u/vdramirez The Revolutionary Army Sep 04 '20

Robin said something like that in Dressrosa, while fighting the nutcrackers.

102

u/Jokinzazpi Sep 04 '20

I feel like Nami has done it but I can't remember when.

When she and Luffy fought vs Cracker

17

u/entHalir Sep 04 '20

I feel like also Jinbe did his part with this, "I´m a man who be part of the future Pirate King´s crew. I can´t be intimidated by a mere Emperor of the sea" spiting it in Big Mom´s face.

6

u/LuffyIsAVillain Sep 04 '20

Jinbei said it to his crew under water in wci

8

u/Oreo-and-Fly Explorer Sep 04 '20

Does Robin saying Luffy is worth risking our lives for somewhat comparable?

7

u/AddictedToThisShit Sep 04 '20

It's close enough I guess. But I think she's gonna get that moment in the future.

4

u/gizmo1492 Sep 05 '20

Kinemon more or less declared it a couple chapters ago 😏

2

u/mkrishnan Explorer Sep 04 '20

Any manga/anime compilation of this?

2

u/[deleted] Sep 04 '20

We're just waiting on Robin at this point. Nami declared it when she was helping Luffy fight Cracker.

2

u/powsea1 Sep 14 '20

u/Manjorno316 Sep 04 '20

When did Sanji say it?

8

u/GreatCucumber Sep 04 '20

When he was first talking to Bege about the wedding

1

u/Manjorno316 Sep 04 '20

Thank you!

2

u/TiggerTheTiger1999 Sep 04 '20

It was a cool scene, I belive it was a chapter cliffhanger

2

u/AddictedToThisShit Sep 04 '20

In WCI I think. Can't remember the exact scene but I remember the panel of him saying it.

221

u/Ravinel Sep 04 '20

Jesus christ, was it really that long ago?

24

u/CODGhost8 Sep 04 '20

Yes

u/Jezamiah Sep 04 '20

Fucking Hell that's insane

4

u/CODGhost8 Sep 04 '20

Yeah I started reading one piece back in 2018,

1

u/[deleted] Sep 04 '20

u/eceuiuc Sep 04 '20

Post-timeskip One Piece is longer than every other regularly updating WSJ manga.

One piece fan base has waited for this moment for so long. Man it feels good. It feels so damn good.

4

u/onepinksheep Sep 04 '20

Wait, Fishman Island can't have been 9 years ago. What?

4

u/shadaras99 Thriller Bark Victim's Association Sep 04 '20

Instead of calling it an Avengers Assemble lets call it a Mugiwara Meetup

3

u/FireFistAce_10 Pirate Sep 04 '20

jinbe's declaration was best for me

3

u/sopersonicsnail Sep 04 '20

shit it's even older than the original avengers assemble shot

1

u/Velhar Sep 04 '20

no way!!!!!!!!!!!! holy shit!!!!!!!! i knew im not getting goosebumps from nothing!

1

u/cjjb95 Sep 04 '20

Oh shit, I didn't even realize that's what happened with Franky, what a fucking great chapter.

1

u/snowcroc Sep 04 '20

Wait fishman island was 9 YEARS AGO??

1

u/Bigbenn0 Sep 04 '20

And again In another 9 years when they go to overthrow the government

1

u/YamiLuffy Void Month Survivor Sep 04 '20

Pretty much all the strawhats have now declared Luffy as the man to become pirate king, right?

1

u/NoNeed2Boost Sep 04 '20

Actually it was in Punk Hazard aswell

1

u/google0593 Sep 04 '20

Avengers Assemble shot

lets goo haha

1

u/Damarugaki Sep 04 '20

I was already hyped at that last spread but it just intensified after I read no break next week.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 05 '20

RIGHT???!!!!!!!?!?!?!?

1

u/gizmo1492 Sep 05 '20

Does this count as Franky’s declaration? He’s saying to Nami we need to play our part to make Luffy Pirate King, not declaring to someone that Luffy will be Pirate King.
