"One Piece" has been updated since 1997, and it has been 23 years since then, in this long update, there are many interesting characters in the plot, but some characters have been carefully considered by Oda Sensei and have a deep impact on the plot, and some character positioning is only passers-by, so Oda Sensei did not spend too much energy on shaping. Therefore, even if some characters have not appeared for a long time, their figures have always been in our minds.
In particular, Luffy's opponents from the East China Sea, such as the East Sea overlord Crick, this 243cm tall strong captain, left a deep impression on the author. Friends familiar with "One Piece" can find out from the plot that when each partner boards the ship, Luffy will always defeat a powerful boss. For example, Sauron's boarding of the ship is because the two of them work together to defeat the axe emperor Monka who slashed the naval hero Cap with an axe. So, why was Crick, the boss who was assigned a copy of Yamaji's ship, awarded the title of Overlord of the East Sea by Oda Sensei?
If Crick hadn't met Hawkeye on the Great Passage, would he have been able to continue his supremacy on the Great Passage, or even in the New World?
First of all, looking at the preparations before Crick entered the great route, it can be known from the plot that Crick's preparation is very sufficient, such as training in the East China Sea first, first becoming the strongest in the East Sea, after all, strength is the most important. Crick did this, and it was precisely to become the strongest in the East Sea, called the Overlord of the East Sea by Oda Sensei, and it was indeed very appropriate for such a powerful force to enter the Great Passage.
If you pay attention to the plot details, you can see in the comics that Crick's weapon battle gun has a weight of "one ton", while Crick can wield a weapon weighing up to a ton with one hand. Since the East Sea has the sword saint Johnny and the sword god Joseph, it is not too much to call Crick a "gun ghost".
Unfortunately, as soon as Crick entered the Great Passage, he encountered One of the Seven Martial Seas, Hawkeye Mihawk, who had once practiced swordplay with one of the four emperors, and the Crick's large ship regiment suffered a crushing defeat. All the way back to the East China Sea, it can be said that this time the failure, coupled with the escape, Crick has collapsed. Moreover, when the second-in-command on the ship, Ah Jin, escaped to the sea restaurant, he was already hungry, and if he did not have a bowl of fried rice from Yamaji, he might have starved to death. From here, Crick, as the captain, will not be optimistic.
Wave after wave of unevenness rises, Crick meets Luffy again, and the two fight over the sea restaurant. At this time, the state of the two is very obvious, on one side is Luffy, who has just got a partner and is full of confidence, and on the other side is Crick, who is hungry and fleeing all the way. Even with such a gap in status, Luffy was still very jealous when facing Crick's one-ton war gun, and did not dare to be touched by the big war gun, because Luffy knew that if he was touched by the big war gun, he would lose.
One side waited for work, and the other side fled and collapsed. In a short period of time, Crick had the advantage, but Luffy delayed the battle, Crick's state became worse and worse, and was eventually defeated by Luffy, and the story of a generation of East Sea overlords was no longer followed here.
It can only be said that luck is also part of strength, and this small part of luck is precisely the key to determining fate. Crick, the overlord of the East Sea, has just entered the Great Passage and met Hawkeye Mihawk, and is doomed to failure, and Luffy is captured alive by Bucky and Smaug in Rogue Town, and if there is no assistance from his father, Monchi D Dragon, Luffy's story will probably end in Rogue Town.
Dear friends, do you think that if Crick had not met Hawkeye, with Crick's ability, could he have extended the name of "Overlord" to the Great Passage and even the New World?
