Forum:Swordsman Lucy

I just read Chapter 706 and although the whole the chapter is interesting. Besides Bellamy now holding no grudge towards Luffy and vowing to not laugh and most likely take him a lot more seriously, I also noticed his handle for the tournament is Swordsman Lucy.

What I am kind of wondering and somewhat hoping to see is Luffy demonstrating some kind of swordmanship. I understand Luffy's style of fighting is brawling and using his fists but in a sense we saw Luffy's has gained some marksmanship abilities in which we've mostly have seen from Usopp. And although Zoro and Brook will be the swordsmen of the Straw Hat, I kind of want to see if Luffy knows his way around a sword too.

I remember seeing hims demonstrate some poor swordsmanship to Arlong and some great swordsmanship when he had a swordsman shadow in Thiller Barks. But now I want to see if Luffy can actually wield a sword on his own and with his devil fruit powers. In a way his marksmanship abilities and perhaps some kind of swordsmanship could make him mirror Gol D. Roger's abilities in a sense.

Anyways I'm interested to hear what your opinions and thoughts are on this matter. I know Luffy's main anchor of battle is his freestyle brawling but if kind of helps to know your way about a few weapons. So yea tell me what you guy's think. Maybe I'm thinking to much into it but I'm intrigued were this story arc is going.
