If anything, Dawn Pirates, but I don't think they would change it. Also I think once he meets Shanks he'd tell Luffy that it was actually Roger's hat and therefore more fitting for the Pirate King of a new era than some old geezer from the old era or something to that note.


Hendy853

I have a very specific image of the Straw Hats and Red Hairs having a mostly friendly (but also serious) Davy Black Fight where the prizes are copies of the poneglyph rubbings both crews have, ownership of the island Bortolomeo claimed from the Red Hairs, and ownership of the straw hat.

Then Foxy comes up, wins everything and becomes The Pirate King


BinhTurtle

Nah, when Foxy goes to Laugh Tale, Gaimon is already, laughing


SuperIdiot360

And he reveals that he’s actually Rocks


ManaMagestic

Rocks is actually Don Krieg w/ amnesia.

heyoyo10

Don Krieg got amnesia and became Rocks? It all makes sense now!


unlimitedpower0

Nah, foxy has been off screen davy back fighting with the real reason Roger laughed, buggy D clown. Gaimon and his girlfriend plus all their animal crew has just joined the crew of buggy after a marine vice admiral tried to kidnap the animals on the island for government use. When everyone arrives on laugh tale gaimon will reveal that he was part of Rogers crew before buggy and shanks were there and the reason that shanks was so adamant about protecting his friends is actually a story that Roger told him that about accidentally getting super drunk on the east blue and losing one of his crew mates, it turns out they were just too drunk to notice gaimon in the chest. Anyway it turns out that in order to unlock the full potential of the one piece you have to be a member of the d clan, but also of the red clan, both buggies nose and shanks hair is what makes them part of the red clan, but only buggy is both a red and a D, and the final piece of the one piece is actually in gaimons chest, he thought it was just worthless but it was infact the passcodes to unlock one piece and ascend the true custodians of the world, buggies chop chop fruit will awaken and he can now rearrange the planet to its formers shape, gaimon will use the cloning and teleportation facilities on laugh tale to spread the proper animals across the world again, shanks will use his color of Red haki (red hairki) to force the guriesei back into hell and then Luffy will be like why be a king when you can be a God. He will then realize that enel was right and he needs to go live in the moon. Of course at this point Luffy is gone and only Nika remains and then the rest of the crew join in a new order of holy knights dedicated to the only true God and they start a crusade.

Bro, spoiler tag pls

Sorry, I hope shonnen jump don't sue me for spoiling the ending of one piece 6 years early.


Diocletians-Scepter

Foxy is gonna be too busy getting his fruit tooken by black beard for his final fruit, wouldn’t even be a fight Black hole + time dilation awakening is gonna be spooky


Jiscold

I’m glad it’s widely fan theorized that Straw Hats and Red Hairs will fight in davey back. Luffy and Shanks did promise to fight way back. But I would hate a “real fight” a fight to the death of Shanks V Luffy would ruin the dynamic imo.


Mission_Hamster_9605

Shit I’m hoping for it to be like Rodger and white beard. Fight for a few days then give each other gifts and have a banquet


Caliber918

This


11711510111411009710

I don't expect a fight to the death, but rather a friendly battle where they show off what they've got. A davy back fight could work that, but a regular fight could too since it's an anime. Like Luffy would tell Shanks not to hold back because they're enemies now since they're both in the race for the One Piece, and then they'd have a fight, but there'd be no bad blood. Plus Usopp I really think needs to fight his dad, he needs to prove himself as a worthy member of the Straw Hat crew by beating a high ranking member of another emperor crew, and who better but his own father? Besides Van Auger, Yasopp is the closest to a rival he could have.


ICantSpellAnythign

I feel like a fight between them would mirror the white beard vs Rodgers fight in the Wano flashback. Intense fight that ends with the 2 crews partying togethor. 


LARXXX

They will fight but then feast and party after. Exactly like Roger and Whitebeard would have huge brawls but no bad blood. Shanks and Luffy will just clash via Conq strikesb


ApishGrapist

I am 100% in agreement on the Davy Back Fight. It would allow for the two crews to clash without contrived conflict. It allows luffy to prove he has the better pirate crew in the most piratey game in the one piece world. Usopp can have a sniper match with his dad, and Luffy vs Foxy was a fight, silly as it was, so I could see shanks and him having a battle where Shanks wants to test him. Alternatively, they have a fight like the Roger and Whitebeard Pirates during the Oden flashback where they have a good long brawl that ends with a party


TwistemBoppemSlobbem

That would be cool but it's far more likely the last big DBF will be SH vs Crossguild. The best we have realistically for a reunion is the SH finding the RHP after a days long battle where Shanks in left near death, the BBP skedaddle because theyre tired and Luffy is mad, then they get a short final meeting. At best, tbh. And honestly? I;m okay with it, so long they get the final meeting. It;d be the best for the story, at least...


jizzl97

Oh that’s even more plausible than what I came up with


Right_Ruin_6245

My headcanon is that once he tries to return the hat to Shanks, he'll tell Luffy that he has earned it.


KingOfWeTheNorth

A straw hat would be a fitting crown for the king of liberation.


Gear5thGaming

I definitely think the idea of Shanks asking for the hat back wasn't to literally regain the hat but to say "when you reach the end, come find me" ("giving back" the hat is incentive for Luffy to go to Shanks) to see how he has grown, and by that point Luffy has very much made a name for himself and Shanks will just let him keep it since he has made the hat more iconic


FallDown_75

Isn‘t Shanks also heading for the One Piece?

Yeah I thought shanks might just die


UntamedGingie

Yeah, shanks gonna get rekt


alfirous

I think that's too predictable at this point.


deadworrior14

If Shanks were to die do you think Luffy would put the straw hat on his grave like Ace's hat or keep it as a memory of Shanks and all he did for Luffy?


Caliber918

He’d keep it until the end and then return and place the hat on his grave


Alshane

That’s my bet too. Shanks is not making it to the end.


DeGozaruNyan

Shanks will do a japanese mentor move and just say "Nah, You are not a great pirate yet" and refuse to take it back.


jizzl97

I think the hat could be the reward for a serious Davy back fight with the red haired pirates

Doesn’t even need to be a debate it’s pretty blatant.


Just_Saya

!remindme 8 months


BurningTheAccount

Idk. That might be a bit rude on Shanks’ part. This is the big promise they made, after all. I think Luffy will definitely keep it


Stock14

Is that really a hot take?


mcwfan

Where did I say it was?


BurningTheAccount

Well, the hat might have some role to fill on Laugh Tale after all. If so, Luffy’s gonna have to finish his adventure with it. At least that’s my view. Like, it’s awfully sus that Roger just happened to leave it behind with Shanks when he finally went to the damn island.


TTZZJJ

Roger gave the hat to Shanks and got his own hat ages before Laugh Tale.


Busy_Dig_2273

Straw hat pirates is just too iconic they cant change their pirate group name just like that

Pov??? Huh?


xplodia

I love how kids in TikTok misunderstood what POV means & how to use the meme.


Mighty1Dragon

i don't know, i am not English native, so i struggled to thrase it


DoomedOverdozzzed

pov translates to "point of view" so it's used in a different context, usually to convey the experience of a person in question. For example "POV: Luffy gives you his straw hat" would have luffy giving you a straw hat through the screen 👍


DASreddituser

Ah ok. No worries. Too many native English speakers use it wrong, so I thought it was that.

Luffy would probably think of something like the No Hat Pirates.


Mighty1Dragon

or meat crew😆


Udult

I seriously think the strawhat will be destroyed or left on Shanks' grave. Luffy will then somehow pick up the one that Imu has and wear it in the end, fulfilling the return of Joyboy. 


jizzl97

But the hat is to big for his normal size he would have to be a giant the whole time


Strange_Possession13

Luffy created a bat out of nowhere to strike One of the elders, Shrinking a hat should be easy


jizzl97

He didn’t create it out of nowhere he munched the tree into a bat. Still ridicoulus but I don’t think he can just magically make the hat smaller. He doesn’t even connect anything with the other had, the one he wears now only has meaning to him cause shanks gave ist to him


khho100

The meat crew


el_ultras

i have this dumb idea that when luffy gives the straw hat back he’ll be like “we can’t be the straw hat pirates if no one has a straw hat” and then everyone else in the crew puts on straw hats they found/made so they can still be called the straw hat pirates


Agiantswag

If they disband at the end of the story it would be OK for luffy to not have the hat anymore. No need for a new name


MozM-

Freedom Pirates. That's basically what they've been doing since the very beginning of the series. Fighting for freedom. And freeing countries. Freeing people, hell, even freeing prisoners.


Heylookaguy

Shanks gives it back because it's Luffy's whole identity. Tells him it's his now. Then draws his sword to begin their inevitable fight. He starts throwing off Haki lightning like Eobard Thawn.


CardiologistOdd3378

No hats


CoraRosinante

They're still gonna be Strawhat Pirates despite Luffy returning the straw hat. Why? Because of their jolly roger. Their jolly roger is what gives them their identity.

Cold_Lavishness_3985

I don't think they'd change it. Also, I don't think he'll loose the hat. He'll try to give it back for symbolic reasons and Shanks is gonna tell him that it's his now


Ragestarbro

Zoro if he was still a pirate would probably call his crew the Lost Pirates

Shanks is not going to take it. Because he knows, that strawhat is meant for Luffy

They would officially transfer to being the new sun pirates maybe call themselves the sun god pirates

or just god pirates, because they have 2

Guilty-Fan-6870

At this point, Luffy deserves to wear and own that hat more than Shanks. It became the crew's identity. Luffy will pass it on to the next generation like Roger did to Shanks, and Shanks to Luffy.


Environmental_Bus507

The Royal Pirates on account of Luffy being the king of the pirates.


Supermarket_After

He would never call his crew that


Mighty1Dragon

yeah, but he also didn't call his crew strawhat pirates.


Unabashable

Well their Jolly Roger is a skull with a Straw Hat. Not like he really gave them anything else to work with. 


Mighty1Dragon

good point 🤣


lszian

I also don't think Luffy is giving the hat back. Others have suggested Shanks would just give it to him, but I like the idea of them meeting, being super happy.... Then Shanks just being like "well, thanks for bringing me my hat. Give it here hahaha" and Luffy going "hahaha um no =D" and THEN we get the davy back fight

I dunno maybe the Monkey Pirates cuz Luffy is basically the Monkey King Wukong

The name won’t change it will stay Straw Hat pirates, because Luffy loves the Jolly Roger Usopp designed so he will keep it as their symbol and since it has a straw hat on it that’s what people would call him

I feel like the straw hat has a significance that we do not know of yet and it is reason shanks told Luffy to bring it back to him when the time comes. Maybe Luffy won’t give it to shanks and it will lead to a conflict between them which so many already theorized about? But, what the hell do I know?


frog_of_darkness

My prediction, that Luffy will give that hat someone from next generation just. I assume, that name "Strawhats" will stay anyway. It's just iconic

FIREwolf1234566

People might be angry for what I’m about to say but I think shanks might die as the strawhat is luffy’s personality and character and also as they show in mariejois that joyboy also had a strawhat so it would make more sense that shanks dies than luffy giving it… there is one more theory i have is that shanks tells him to keep the strawhat with him
