User blog comment:Ruffy1/STRAW HAT PIRATES IN THE BLACK BEARD ERA/@comment-2161782-20100702172158

The reason i asked this is because the straw hats have experienced the power of the worlds strongest marines and pirates for example

1.When the Strawhats struggle to defeat the Foxy pirates i mean come on their teamwork was so poor bearly winning off instinct.

2.And their lack of education blackbeard study hard on evil fruits of all classes,and had enough power to scar Shanks before getting the yami yami no mi.

3.Not really trained in there own skills as a team they can be 10x as strong by now their bounties could have been legendary!

but they are still my second favorite crew far as family wise ( Whitebeard pirates being the first) hope they can make it
