If Don Krieg had "information"

[SSJ2]

He claims that his crew was not lacking power, just the info to properly navigate the Grand Line. Had he had Zeff's travel log, would his crew have actually made it somewhere there? Quality over quantity, but 50 galleons seems like a lot of power to bring into the early stages of the Grand Line.

I doubt it. Even if Krieg had his precious information, his Nappa-esk personality would get him trouble with someone like Crocodile
(Or someone his caliber), then that would be the end of Krieg's merry voyage.

Yeah, Krieg wasn't even Arlong tier.

What it seems Krieg didn't have was a log pose. That and his complete lack of strength would have gotten nowhere.
