Not exactly duval 2.0. I mean  would it be such a crazy ide that luffy is gonna start to afiliate pirate captains under his flag ? Or at the very least make friends with them.

Besides it is not just duval(he was more or less and example) there are others. Boa hancock wanted to execute him now she wants to marry him. Buggy and Mr. 3 wanted to kill him. During impel down and marineford arcs (more marineford than  impel down) they alied themself with him and even saved him and Ace a couple of times. Crocodile a guy who wanted to kill him since day one wanted to kill his Vivi went out of his way trying to save him and again alied himsel with luffy. Mihawk stated it himself luffy has the abilitie to make evryone into an ally. It is not such a crazy ide that he could make Cavendish into a friend of his.
