User blog comment:Yatanogarasu/Buggy's Letter from the Government/@comment-1507483-20100727222202

As stated, Yankou're not chosen by WG. Whitebeard against Shichibukai ought to make that all to clear. An invitation to join Shickibukai does seem plausible however. He has amast a giant squad of capable warriors, made a great reputation in just a matter of hours and also told all the ones who watched the battle on "live tv" that he was a part of the legendary Gol. D.-crew. Sending him an invitation would be the easiest way for GW to keep him in his place. I wonder however how dussins of ex-cons from Impel Down would reakt to it, though...
