Questions & Mysteries Will Magellan ever be relevant to the story again?

#4
I've stated it before. I think Oda scrapped this idea but it gives us a power indication while in Impel Down

Magellan = Chief Warden
Shiryu = Chief Jailer
King = Chief Interrogation (torture loving bastard)

I see Magellan being comparable to presumed lower admirals (Fujitora, Green Bull), top CP-0 (Lucci, Mr. Go) and YC1 (Zoro, King, Marco, Katakuri perhaps not Beckman). Crocodile could presumably have gotten close as well during time skip. 1.5-2.5B range.
Post automatically merged:

His JOB is to literally confine those very YC1 and YC2 in cells and keep them in check.
In a confined space like Impel Down Magellan could be #1 amongst YC1 guys. It's just that much of an advantage. But same goes for Crocodile in Alabasta or Jinbei in Fishmen Island.

Two Warlords and a commander of Revolutionary Army arent running away from a mere YC1.
Do you really think 3 of them would run from a guy like Marco or Katakuri? Never.
Magellan is at least equal to Akainu. Full-fledged top tier without a doubt.

Otherwise, a mere YC1 negged Blackbeard and his entire crew in an instant...
The same Blackbeard that went against WB and Sengoku the very same day...
I have no clue why people underestimate Magellan. Must be because of Shiryu, Zoro's opponent is >Magellan.

Well, the scaling is all over the place due to inflation and haki. Nobody could protect themselves because CoO and CoA wasn't a concept yet.

The two Shichibukai had 81M and 250M respectively and even when unfrozen and working directly for a yonko Jinbei only had 438, lower than the likes of Sasaki or Black Maria...

We also saw Capone, Jinbei, Luffy, Sanji, Pedro, Ceasar not wanting beef with Katakuri. BM pirates not wanting beef with Marco. Queen scared of Zoro.

By all accounts Magellan > Shiryu and Mihawk > Shiryu. And regarding Magellan > BB that is a 1HKO if you don't know his powers. Hyouzou also had same hax with poison, doesn't make him better than Mihawk regardless.

4 commanders of RA fought 2 Admirals while one of them with the backing of 2 Warlords and countless others didnt want any smoke with Magellan... Jinbe's bounty shouldnt be our concern, he is a Strawhat and his bounty still didnt reach the amount he deserves.
He never powered-up since his bounty was unfrozen and if he had the bounty he deserves, he would have made Katakuri look bad.

Luffy alone took on Katakuri. Perospero alone wanted to off Marco... Queen is right to be scared of Zoro.
How is Magellan>Shiryu when we were told they were equal and then Shiryu powered-up with a DF?
It is not about knowing Magellan's powers, it's that the entire crew was blitzed before they could even react...

Unlike pretty much any other character, Magellan can poison you to death even if you defeat him.

Fighting Magellan isn't worthy the risk, simple as that. Trying to fit him in a made up power scaling is absurd.

The whole prison can gang up on Magellan and yet isnt...
Fighting Akainu can lead to death and yet WBPs decided to fight him.
Nobody wanted smoke with Magellan. 2 Warlords and RA commander.

Just because one has dangerous ability, doesnt make people not wanna fight him.
Especially when they can easily outnumber him as Magellan was.
Dude is among the strongest characters in the world. Shiryu is simply stronger and belongs to Zoro.

He seems like retired. Waste of a character. But I rather him like that since he came out on top as a true Goat then having Oda turning him into Sentomaru that went from Goat pre timeskip to a gag post timeskip

...Again: fighting Magellan has a high chance fatal damage since the guy is poisonous; even for a small dose, you're taking a hugh risk by fighting him in a closed space (another factor you're ignoring here). You can gang up on him all you want, but it'd be stupid if you have the chance to just run and not take the risk of touching a drop of a deadly toxin from the guy so poisonous that even his own body can't stand the toxicity of the fruit.

The Whitebeard Pirates had a transcendet reason to face Sakazuki even if that meant death, while the prisoners' goal was simply to leave. Comparing both situations is fallacious. And even then, Magellan's poison has been depicted to be more dangerous than Sakazuki's magma.

Stop trying to fit Magellan in your simplistic scaling.

Vista wanted smoke with Mihawk knowing he’s the WSS, how does this add up with your logic here?
The warlords simply wanted to escape, no need for more stalling which would allow the navy ample time to fortify their defenses.
