It was from the ending of the last major arc though, that's why there was a title change by the mod I think. We could start a new thread when this arc ends, who knows, there might be better titles when it ends as this arc seems quite ripe of potential good titles.

If/when Luffy takes out Big Mom, would that automatically put him in with the Yonko? Isn't that how Blackbeard got in? I mean, the dude didn't take Whitebeard out himself but he got a lot of the credit for it.

Blackbeard became a Yonko because he ( his crew. Whatever) killed Whitebeard and then he spent several years going around and gobbling up territory in the New World. Luffy ain't got the patience for that.

Would Luffy's allieship with various countries help? Dude helped save Alabasta and is buddy buddy with the royal family, he saved Drum and helped install the new king, he deposed Doflamingo and changed the government of Dessarossa, quieted an uprising on Fishman island and has the ear of the King (his apparent marriage to the queen of Amazon Lily doesn't count since it's hush hush but that could be made public I suppose if anyone else heard Hancock's proclamation at Marineford). Add to that his armada which include's Kid's ships and the back up of the Amazons, every single one of the major events he's been a part of and then he takes out a Yonko?

I have to think that puts him in the running.

Its an influence/territory thing though in the New World. He basically only has Fishman Island Zou and Dressrosa atm. After taking her out of whatever he can probably be in the running though yeah.

No, because after Whitebeard died all of his territory didn't just transfer to Blackbeard. Fishman Island was WB territory, but Big Mom claimed it after his death. It just becomes a power grab.

I also reckon that everyone's going to want to start calling Luffy an Emperor and he's going to vehemently deny it like at the end of Dressrosa. All he cares about is becoming the Pirate King and he doesn't have time for half-baked titles like 'Emperor.'

Defeating a Yonko doesn't automatically promote the victor, I wouldn't think. That said, it would absolutely destabilize the current stalemate between the great powers, as it would show the world that Big Mom can also be defied, causing her to lose influence.

Apparently Blackbeard officially got the Yonkou title after the Grudge War with the Marco-led remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates at some point during the timeskip. They talk about it at the end of Zou.

The Payback War was certainly relevant as that could be called BB officially putting an "end" to WB's crew as it was, but his capturing of territories is probably more relevant to the title itself.

BB always claimed he was replacing Whitebeard from the moment he actually killed Whitebeard (This is MY ERA!!!) but the world only took it seriously after he beat Marco in a straight fight, that's why.

Does that mean Shanks claims territory then? I don't recall any mention of it, but it's not an unbelievable idea that he could stake claim for good reason, same as Luffy claiming Fishman Island. He's certainly had the time to do it given that he seems to have no interest in the title of Pirate King despite the fact he must know the location of Raftel.

Kild posted:

Didn't Luffy and co. stop at at least one other island before Totoland?

Also, did the news crews capture Blackbeard failing to kill Whitebeard and needing his crew to do it, despite Whitebeard already being on death's door? That seems like the kind of thing that would be significant if they did, given that it would give most people cause to doubt his strength and resist the idea of him taking over Big Mom's territory - necessitating him doing it by force.

Ya for protection I'm sure he's claimed some not that I know any off hand.

Oh right, that makes more sense. I thought Totoland was just another name for Whole Cake Island or something. Is Totoland the entirety of her dominion then, and not just one particular archipelago? Or is her nation just one huge archipelago with the name Totoland used to refer to both her territory and that archipelago?
