I was wondering who came up with the idea of Kid alliance. Was it Kid or Killer?

Eustass Captain Kid seems like a crazy maniac who is too proud to form an alliance. He focus on strength and believes only the strong deserves to be a pirate in the New World. He crucified Haritsu Kendiyo because of having weak resolve.

He is also short-tempered and can be easily provoked. He picked fight with Apoo because Apoo was staring at him!!

It seems a little out of his character to plan an alliance to survive in the New World.

Now, lets focus on Killer. Killer is the only member of the worst generation other than Zoro who doesnt have a devil fruit and who is not the captain of the crew. His position in the crew is unknown, but he is the only other member of the Kid pirates who stands out than the rest. He doesnt add any honorifics and calls Kid by his name. The third Kid pirate who got a few panel time is Heat (probably the 3rd strongest member of the crew). He calls Kid as master/captain, but Killer doesnt.

Its pretty obvious that Killer has some special relation with Kid. He is the one who guides Kid and the member Kid listens to.

He clearly has better knowledge as shown when he informed Kid about the Ox Bell.

He is also calm unlike Kidd. He called Luffy, Law and Kid short tempered in Sabaody.

Their personality indicates that the idea of forming an alliance didnt come from Kidd’s brain. It came from Killer. Its also evident that Kid didnt want to include Apoo in the alliance. But Killer invited Apoo regardless of Kid’s objection.

He was negotiating with Hawkins and was shouting at both Kid and Apoo to stop fighting.

Its also really interesting that declaration of their target came from Killer!

Once again it portrays him as the real mastermind and strategist behind Kid alliance.

The question is why Killer came up with the plan of forming the alliance. Is it only to make Kid one of the top pirates of NW? I think Killer came up with the idea so that Kid doesnt get killed easily. Kid was surely going ham after entering NW. He was picking fight even against yonkos.

I think somewhere along the line Kid fought against a top fighter and nearly got killed. As you might have noticed, someone fucked Kid up during the timeskip. He lost his arm and look at the scar on his face, body and another arm.

Thats when Killer thought Kid will die if he continues to fight in this way with only their crew. So he formed the alliance with his own initiative and is probably the main strategist of the alliance. Please share your thoughts.

In Manga Dragon Ball x One Piece: Cross Epoch (クロス エポック) by Eiichiro Oda and Akira Toriyama  Luffy was able to ride Goku’s cloud, which means that Luffy has a pure heart.

Do you think the other Straw Hats could ride it? ^^
