Don't know that I super agree with this order, but the cast of the top 10 seems mostly right. Roger got a real easy bracket, and he's probably not actually in the top 10 without it.

Sorry, but Sanji got really dinged at the beginning of the New World. The most dreadful thing is all of you repping neither Laboon nor Merry though. Shameful.

I'm legit curious what Crocodiles back story is. Him and Mihawk are the only two we know nothing about prior their careers as Warlords.

I think Crocodile got his rear end handed to him by Whitebeard? A couple of the Warlords are New World burnouts.

He lost to Whitebeard, but other than that we know nothing else. And some of his dialogue to Luffy when they fought implied that he was like him to some degree, but then something changed. He also seems to have some kind of connection to Ivankov as well.

There was a short lived theory when Ivankov was revealed that Crocodile was Luffy's mom, which I don't know how to feel about.

God please don't remind me of that. Ugh!

I also don't think Crocodile's ever been subjected to the gender swap since he's had character pictures of him as a kid and actual "what if" gender swap pictures done.

All in all, that was just a loving TERRIBAD concept and idea and makes no sense.

We know from the Ms Goldenweek cover arc that Crocodile's true dream is to be the pirate king, which definitely points to him being more idealistic at heart.

He’s quite androgynous as a kid and the only time we’ve seen him when he was younger was at Roger’s execution, where he was only shown from the back. I’m not a fan of the gender swap theory either but there is evidence for it.

the whole idea is based on how crocodile's childhood art and his "what if" gender swap look more similar than crocodile as a man and young crocodile

I remember the theory predating both of those by a good bit from some old discussions back when Summit War was still recent on the anime. This was years ago though so memory might be off.

People guessed that Crocodile used to be a woman the very moment Ivankov said they knew a secret about Crocodile. That's a very old guess that has had some resurgence with the kid and genderswapped pictures.

I vaguely recall people joking about Crocodile possibly being Luffy's mother, but my recollection is that people were just being silly, rather than that being a real theory.

Yeah, I don't remember when those 2 drawings above were made but the theory that he used to be a woman was immediately proposed basically the millisecond Ivankov revealed that he knew a secret about Crocodile's past, since Iva has the hormones that can do that.

I can't remember exactly how the "Crocodile is Luffy's mother" theory came about but since there is literally no other evidence than for any other woman of a certain age range, it was probably shortly after.

Though could be wrongfooting us given Ivankov has been with the Revolutionaries and in Impel Down and probably knows a fuckload of secrets besides.

The Revolutionary Army is still a bit of an unknown quantity it seems like; their goals and tactics seem pretty clear in seeking to discredit the World Government and encourage and assist people to overthrow tyrannical and corrupt governments, and the WG is certainly mass-producing malcontents at an unprecedented rate. But it's still not entirely clear where they came from, what motivates Dragon in particular (being the son of Garp the Hero and all) and what assets and resources they have that keeps them going even after Blackbeard sacked their original base. (and for that matter, why Blackbeard targeted them in particular) Robin spent the timeskip training with them but that doesn't help much given she's already the most enigmatic Straw Hat.
