Oh damn, yeah THIS i 100% agree with.
Ive said it before, but even if Kizaru goes down here by Luffy, its not something that should be compared to Kaido on some janky powerscaling shonen progression that this site likes to fuck around with.
Outside of the "steady" progression between Doflamingo -> Katakuri -> Kaido, One Piece is not really known for making antagonists outscale the last on stupid levels. Earlier enemies had Luffy defeating them in almost circumstantial ways (Crocodile with water/blood, Enel with rubber, Moria with shadows), and even characters like Lucci could have been potentially defeated by Croc/Enel otherwise because of their powers.
And even with Doffy, Kata and Kaido, there were circumstantial moments where Luffy was either saved or the villain put under a specific situation because of plot that allowed Luffy to win (i.e. Katakuri being a respectable pirate that he stabbed himself to compensate for Luffy getting unfairly distracted).
Even if there is an inherent focus on Future Sight or speed with Kizaru, there probably will be nothing that will inherently tell you Admirals are better than Yonko and vice versa. Luffy could defeat Kizaru in less hits than he did Kaido, but maybe Kizaru's powers confuse the fuck out of Luffy beyond measure before he gets the hang of it. Maybe he had to use Atlus's light gloves for some weird reason if he runs out of haki (lol).
Just a random example, but you see my point lol
