Law being defeated but alive and looking good in a loss was obvious, he has always been far more important than Kid. Not a bad look for Law at all, especially considering he got jumped, and he's obviously going to escape.
Also, hey, look at that. An Admiral as a subordinate to a Yonko. Because they're not as strong as the Yonko. Now who in their right mind (but an actually objective, non fanboy, non powerscaling loser) could have ever seen that coming?
