You only forgot she's a captain.

No way someone who's been a captain before joins another pirate crew.

I definitely don't want Hancock, honestly my front runner would probably be Bonnie. Her crew got decimated, she obviously has an interesting back story, shes a supernova and because shes been captured by the marines it's likely that strawhats will encounter her fairly soon as from here they're just going to travel deeper into the new world. Two years has passed but remember she was featured prominently just like 3 or 4 chapters ago when Blackbeard captured her and Akainu took her.

omfg. the first moment i saw her getting arrested by akainu i was like SHIT PLZ LET LUFFY RESCUE HER AND MAKE HER JOIN THE CREW. hancock is fine and dandy and all but Oda has already stated that the manga wont have romance in it and Oda already went down the unrequited love road with hancock so not likely he will develop that one sided love story.

another poster mentioned margaret which to me is a better candidate than hancock or perona if you have been following the [who will be the next strawhat] discussion but to me choosing margaret would be like settling... I rather wait for someone better than settle for margaret. she just doesnt stick out for me. shes nice and average.

as long as its a girl and the girl is strong and adds a dynamic relationship to the crew i'd be good with. cause remember guys...this is the LAST crewmate. i rather wait it out for a good girl, than settle for a so-so char.

The next crew member isn't necessarily his last. In chapter 1 Luffy says that he hopes to find at least 10 people. Right now he has 8 (unless you want to count Vivi and that's a toss up) and the at least part definitely leaves the possibility open for more anyway. I do think the crew needs one more female member to balance it out a bit. Beyond that, I've always thought that Smoker could logically join at some point. He fulfills an archetype the crew doesn't have, he has a grudging respect for them (they saved his life in the alabasta arc), and hes too honorable and intelligent to keep ignoring the government's unjust actions.

I honestly thought before that the strawhat crew needed another REALLY STRONG member to balance it out (before it was only Luffy, Zoro and arguably Sanji who was weak at times). But with the timeskip, it's possible that one or two members of the crew might have actually become handy and be on par with Sanji at least (Chopper with his monster ability, Franky with upgrades, Brook?!).

That said, the last (or maybe not) crew member might not have to be strong after all. My opinion on possible crew members:

Hancock - She fits the SH crew archetype (funny and large breasts ). You can also see a nice comedic twist with her and Luffy and a dejected Sanji. Yes she is a shichibukai (it wasn't revoked right?) but honestly at this point, I think we can expect anything from Oda.

Margaret - Can't see her joining. She's so plain in character and in looks (doesn't look that much special compared to the rest of the Kuja pirates). What would she even want to achieve as her dream anyways?

Jimbei - I just can't see him in the crew. I don't know why but I just have a feeling he'll sacrifice himself to save the SH crew in the future.

Smoker - He just seems too much of a rival figure to join the SH crew. I mean his goal could be toppling the World Governemnt but I can't see him fitting in with the crew being serious all the time (Even Zoro has his terrible sense of direction and the constant quarrels with Sanji).

Perona - I don't think too likely to join but could see it. She would make an interesting fit in the crew fighting with Zoro all the time and scaring Chopper.

Bon Kurei (Clay) - It'll be a crime if he dosen't join (that is if he's still alive). How many times has he saved the SH crew already? Another good reason is that we haven't seen him yet. All the StrawHats have gotten powerups. It could be possible he has gotten one too which could make him joining the crew even more likely.

With that said, I think it'd most likely be a new character but if not, I'd have bets on Hancock or Bon Clay.
