About Lilith, Bonney, and 10th crewmate
So in this most recent Chapter Lilith mentioned getting her “resident pass” while on Elbaph implying she will be staying there for the foreseeable future; Bonney also echoed this sentiment by saying “me too.”
With the both of them seemingly remaining on Elbaph that would leave Vivi and Yamato to be the 10th crewmate (yes I know this conversation has been talked into the ground) and of those 2 I really can’t see which it would be.
Vivi I think has the most story compelling reason to join with her being kicked from Alabasta and her Father killed by WG but the 2 reasons I think she won’t be the 10th is because 1.) Her new views may align more with the Revolutionary Army more so than that of a pirate and 2.) she’s just too weak to be fighting in the New World. It’s inevitable that BB and SH are going to do battle and I don’t see Vivi holding her own in a fight like that.
Yamato on the other hand has the Oden parallel’s and the current cover story is focused on them. Yamato has also already met the crew so their integration would be pretty easy. My only skepticism comes from the same point of Vivi being too weak, I think Yamato may be TOO strong. If they joined right now I think Yamato would be #3 which pushes Sanji further down to #4 or #5 depending on how you see Jimbei. If Oda still wants to do the monster trio then Yamato realistically cannot join but if that idea is over then I see Yamato making the most sense to join next.
