Wow the Admirals as a whole took a big L this chapter, as well as the BBPs. Only Garp looked good.
In pure strength Aokiji finally achieved what Garp did, but this is only pure strength, nothing else.
Garp threw Aokiji down then fought the BBPs (Wolf, Vasco) etc. then Aokiji came up and when Shiryu went for Coby Garp intercepted it but got stabbed then slammed Shiryu down and while they were facing each other Aokiji charged Garp and then they clashed. Of the two only Garp is confirmed ACoC user, Aokiji covered his fist with ice and there were no ACoC trails in his punch, the final explosion is similar to ACoC but so far nothing indicates it is because of both Aokiji and Garp.
L
1. Aokiji matched prime Garps strength, not haki.
2. 78 year Old Garp had time to fight other BBPs before Aokiji recovered from the slam and even got stabbed while trying to protect Coby.
3. Aokiji charged Garp while Garp was facing Shiryu
4. Aokiji coated his fist with haki and Ice, no ACoC trails like every other ACoC attack.
5. Both Garp and Aokiji got sent flying.
From the looks of this current Aokiji who is prime Admiral level is being outmatched by a 78 year old Garp who has been shown twice to comment on his strength declining due to old age (W7 and Beehive).
Prime Garp was truly a monster and these Admirals are not Yonko level, at least Aokiji is not.
While Shiryu seems hurt from a non ACoC non named slam from Garp, he is still laughing and getting back up. Him being able to stab Garp is a good feat though because Garp is shown using haki on his hand to grab the sword so Garp not using haki to defend against the stab even when he intercepted is stupid (but Oda does anything for plot). Garp smiling after the stab and countering is giving Zoro vs Killer vibes here.
