Definitely an interesting story to keep an eye out for, and yea Abel is not perfect. He is calculating, uses lies to hia benefits along with canon knowledge and I as a reader am okay with that. Especially if it makes the story better. Could he have handled things better, yes. Could he have gotten quality crewmates and handled things better in east blue? Yes. But its the authors story and we are only along for the ride, 5 years before canon starts is a very long time and by the sounds of it Luffy is about 11 to 12. An already we can see ripples of his actions affecting the east blue. Keep up the good work. I personally would've added Alvida to the crew and had her as a quarter master. Worked her to the bone to lose the weight and train her beyond her limits. Making her 1000 times better than her canon counterpart. But again, that is what I would do, author has other ideas. I look forward to his choices and decisions. In a weird way he kinda reminds me of Tengen. Kinda. But anyway, I look forward to more of this story.
