The Straw Hats are all in places that will force them to improve, so which do you think will show the most growth?

well luffy is an obvious choice since it is really storyrelevant that he changes much, but i think
from the others theres one that will or at elast really has the potential to change much.
and that is franky.
he is on the island of vegapunk where he surely discoveres much equiment of vegapunk he can add to his body as an upgrade.

the others dont really seem to have much potential to improve that much.
i mean zoro will become a better swordsmnan, sanji will learn some okama fighting, ussop will just train a little, robin might gain usefull knowledge and nami might improve her stick with gimmicks.

but really only franky is on the perfect island to really make the most of his special andriod body.

Umm...Zoro is going to be trained by the greatest swordsman in the world. I'm pretty sure that's the perfect island for him.

I really should get an avatar

I think Usopp need to improve the most. He used to be my favorite character for a while because he would actually use tactics to when his fights (what few he had), while mostly everyone else was more of a charge in and fight type character. Then he got really weak, and now his attacks barely do anything. I think he needs to be the one who improves the most.

If I had a polar bear as a pet I would have to name him Beary White.

yes and that will make him a better swordsman. but franky can have a whole bunch of new tools.
thats what i mean. franky will significantly change, while zoro will just be better then he was before.

Sanji wasn't any sort of okama, last I checked... And the okama-ken or whatever it's called is significantly different from his current fighting style with its crazy special abilities.

He stands to "change" a lot, even personality wise.

This signature was recovered from Hades to serve in my rotting armies.

Usopp ... and Luffy(couse he is the captain) but back to Usopp...
He is the weakest and is curently on an island that can provide him just what he lacks and that is.
The strength to fight vs hard aponents, the guts to stand up to something that is a lot phisicly stronger then him, and to improve his (so far) great shooting but i dont think he needs to improve a lot in that he is The best shot 😀

Zoro will learn a lot and will probobly be on rank with Luffy but his progres isnt that much couse he was always 2nd in the Straw hats

And Sanji just "might" become as strong as Zoro and fight till the end of the serie for 2nd place in the crew...

Again chopper will learn a lot of stuff and he is a doctor so he is probobly gona find a way to abuse his devil fruit some more 😀

Ok perfect island for Franky i + on that but he is just gona become like Bartolom Puma or whats he called...

All others are gona improve in there speciality but lets fase it only Luffy,Sanji,Zoro realy do all the important fighting...

i think that chopper will improve the most because he hasn't gotten stronger since he joined except for his monster rumble ball and that won't be enough anymore unless he can control it

yes i agree with getUPstrong12 Usopp used to be so much better when he was tactical like when he fought with Luffy or when he fought the Chew

I voted for Nami, Franky, and Usopp. Nami because she is on a sky island known to have the most advanced weather technology around, and at the end of the last chapters she was thinking about how to incorporate this into her weapon (and this is just in the first few days of her two year stay on the island). Next comes Franky, honestly think about it he is in the former laboratory of Dr. Vegapunk - a guy who had created plans for devices/technology hundreds of years ahead of the current technology. Then there is Usopp, he is on that crazy island which will force him to both lose weight and gain (some) strength but I think his main improvement will be in his weapon and its usage. First of all he will incorporate those instant-grow plants into his ammo (unlimited ammo that grows itself), then (and this is the vaguest speculation) I'm thinking that he might learn how to use a variation of haki similar to what the Kuja's use on their arrows, but maybe with the ability to infuse different properties into that instant-grow ammo.

While I've said that I think these three will improve the most, that doesn't mean that I don't believe that they will all improve an incredible amount (it is just that Nami and Usopp were by far the weakest straw hats and to survive in the New World they would have to improve insanely, and Franky is spending about 2 years in the lab of probably the most brilliant scientist on the face of the One Piece world).

However, I think all of the other straw hats are also going to get much much stronger. Luffy is spending two years on that crazy island with the climate that changes every 10 days training in the use of haki with Reileigh (so when we see him again he will be able to use a great deal of the sensory and emperor's haki (as he has shown flashes of both of these in the last two arcs), a good amount of the armor type haki (which if he has used it, we wouldn't really be able able to tell from his normal attacks - but you know that he will be at least proficient in using this haki because he will need to use it against enemies like smoker and blackbeard who can "dissolve" their bodies). So, he will have incorporated haki usage into his fighting style and just become in general stronger in his training with Reileigh. Then there is Sanji, who is spending the two years fighting against the Okamas while trying to learn the recipies which increase fighting ability. Next is Zoro who is spending a full two years training with the greatest swordsman in the world: Hawkeyes Mihawk, and with this kind of training there is no way he isn't going to be insanely stronger. Chopper is on an island with seemingly primitive people who actually prove to have very advanced medical technology and plants which can be used to formulate very strong medicines. I bet he is going to come back as a better doctor, with an improved rumbel ball (one that opens up other forms and allows him to use and control his giant/berserk form). Then there is Robin, who is going to be spending time with the rebel army (especially with Monkey D. Dragon who is considered to be one of the most dangerous man in the world) so I think that even if most of what she does is investigate the poniglyphs she will probably get stronger also, possibly learning how to use some haki (most likely the armor-type). Lastly, Brooke is likely to learn more of his hypnotic sword/music techniques and maybe some "satanic techniques".

Luffy is the obvious answer.
No matter how much the others improve even a small improvement by Luffy will trump them all

No one gives a shit what trite garbage you write here.

Well the question is who will improve the most not who will be stronger....

luffy is obvious, training by the side of the first mate of the previous pirate king.
Zoro is one too since he is trained by the #1 swordsman.
Ussop on the other hand need the most improvement
meh i just cant wait for them to get all together...

DO you think there will be some character art changes?

It would have to be Usopp, almost by default. He was by far the weakest previously and bordered on useless in most situations.

The strength achieved by the improvement shows the relevance of the improvement
And Luffy learning to control his Haki can be considered a small improvement compared to improvement of all the physical strength, knowledge and techniques the others are going to learn
