I agree and disagree.

I disagree because I think Luffy will keep his word and have 10 men, meaning one or two more after Brook.

But I also agree because Oda says we're nearing the end of One Piece, and having your whole crew complete right before a timeskip seems very fitting.

About Jimbei joining later, I think he's just going to be an ally. Like Vivi was. Although he would have made a nice addition to the crew.
