This chapter also implies that Luffy was indeed much stronger than his peers and it kinda makes sense
Luffy was already stronger than Law in Dressrosa. The awakening boost he got wasn't enough to cover the gap, especially with Luffy also gaining awakening
Then Luffy also had future sight(an ability that trolled Kid), adcoa, adcoc
After the Shanks vs Kid and Blackbeard vs Law debacle, Luffy, Shanks and Blackbeard will be the ones remaining standing in the battle for the ONE Piece.
