It would seem old girl is the rightful ruler of Derossa. So I think this will be a Vivi situation and old girl will regain the crown but will not join the straw hats.

Word she'd really have to show me something in her upcoming match if she joins the crew.But you still got the old knight dude who might just be her grandfather, and then there's soldier, who's probably her dad. So I could see her leave the country in their hands (presuming that's who they are) and join Luffy & co., but who knows? Oda could just be messing with our minds, especially since this arc mirrors a lot of stuff from Alabasta.
She will somehow end up with Ace's fruit, and power up as they travel along the new worldWord she'd really have to show me something in her upcoming match if she joins the crew.
If anyone, I think Jimbei and Perona are much more likely candidates.
Jinbei is essentially a lock after Luffy takes care of Big Mom.
After that...I think the best chance at another crew member is a giant who joins after they visit Elbaf. Gotta be someone with formidable strength who can help the crew against future enemies and have a unique design/personality. Maybe San Juan Wolf's opponent?
I've seen a lot of people mention Perona, but I don't really get it. I can see Jimbei bein' a member considering his interactions with Luffy though for sure. Just haven't seen much to suggest Perona, though I've heard that theory a lot.
A giant would definitely be interesting, some relative of the Oars family or maybe a Jaguar D Saul connection...There's also that dude who straight worships Luffy, he's a completely unique character, worships Luffy, is an outcast amongst his native people (ie: Nami, Usopp, Chopper, Franky) and he definitely looks like someone that could hang with Strawhat enemies.
man this chapter
One piece is great cause Oda can pull stories like this for any arc.
