WW >> pre skip lucci..............pre ts luffy can't even defeat a pacifista......WW in base was fighting with jimbei........
Well I doubt its that easy... Luffy pre ts was simply meant to be able to take down YC level characters. Ofc with the introduction of Haki looking at the pre ts Antagonists they may look pretty weak, but
technically for those times they were meant to be YC level. Crocodile proved at Marineford that he's at least YC3, if not YC2 or higher. Lucci was probably also YC3 - remember that Oda confirmed in Data Vivre Card that Lucci had Haki pre ts already, he simply didnt show it cause the concept wasnt properly fleshed out at that time.
To sum it up, if an author introduces and improves a new ability who almost everyone has mid story, comparing powerlevels of the characters of the early story directly to the mid and late story characters becomes massively inconsistent. I'm pretty sure that if pre ts Lucci appeared rn in the story, also showing his Haki and stuff, he would give Jinbei an equal fight as well. Just like Croc suddenly overwhelmingly performed at Marineford while being portrayed as one of the strongest after the Top Tiers there.
Cp0 Lucci >> Cp9 Lucci = Who's Who rn > Cp9 Who's Who (keep in mind WW considered himself equal to Lucci 12 years ago!, since then Cp9 Lucci had lots of time and obviously improved as well, while WW was rotten in the prison).
