Only Kong makes sense. You people are a trip. Expecting the elders and Imu to be stronger than the admirals is like expecting Joe Biden and Kim Jung Un to be more powerful than their armies top soldiers wtf
They are merely political leaders, this obsession with Imu being some sort of Kaguya needs to stop
1) They would need to be that strong, otherwise we are going to have a REALLY short final saga.
2) One Piece is not the real world.
3) One Piece is a shonen. Even in Akame ga Kill, the young enemy prince ended up being a massive threat lol.
4) Unpopular Opinion thread.
Edit: Plus, one of the Gorosei and Gandhi has SCARS and a SWORD, respectively. And they were fine with Shanks seeing them alone, even though (by your logic) he could have killed them and ended their control (he already is a wanted man). Lol why do you people really think that they cannot fight???
I am pretty sure that Im would have been usurped if he/she wasn’t powerful. Literally less than 10 people know that Im exists and only six confirmed people with five of them being the Gorosei. If Im dies then they could have complete control. Seriously, this is just how shonens work.
