shichibukai summons possibly? there are 3 openings :) . He got a lot of fame/infamy from hijacking the DD Mushi during the war, and perhaps just as WB pretended to ally with him purely to deal with his huge prisoner entourage, the Marines may do the same..sure he's a bloody coward with not much skill to speak of- but with those prisoners backing him up & possible pirate foes scared off by hearing about his "brotherly bond" with Shanks & past on Rogers ship....its entirely possible. (im sure someone else has had to have thought of this before me, too)
