Can it get more obvious?
There are exactly 9 vice admirals with an admiral kizaru leading the operation. There are 9 strawhats with yonko luffy as the captain. Its going to be Luffy vs Kizaru and the rest of strawhats fighting a vice admiral each. Just like how every arc its luffy vs the boss while the strawhats fight the commanders/officers. The vice admirals also have exactly 2 females to fight nami and robin.
"but what about Saturn", that fatty doesn't even want to be seen let alone fight....he's there to get infiltrated by lafitte and have his secrets exposed to the world.
"but bonney will fight a vice admiral", no she will not. She is not a straw hat. That's like thinking bepo or wire would fight a flying six in wano.
It doesnt even make any sense for zoro to be fighting a top tier now when he still has commander opponents to get through (shiryu). Then again people thought he would kill a yonko before fighting a commander too.
"but vice admirals are too weak", just like commander king was too weak? Vice admirals are only one rank below admiral, so it makes sense that the strongest one is as strong/stronger than someone who is one rank below yonko. These vice admirals are mostly new characters so of course oda is going to try hype them now for buildup to the final war. The vice admiral that fights zoro will be stronger than king. The vice admiral that fights sanji will be stronger than queen. And Kizaru will be stronger than Kaido.
