The more legit the gorosei prove to be the bigger joke the Yonkou become, like people had been saying, Yonkou were no more than their pets. Just pieces on the board, which is why not even an Admiral was ever authorized to attack them.
...What???
This literally makes no sense at all, lol.
One: The Yonkou are not jokes just because there's a group of people that are possibly stronger than them. I can understand if they were called the strongest people in the verse and what not, but that isn't even the case.
Two: How are the Yonkou their pets but the Admirals aren't? Keep in mind even when a regular fodder CD got punched by pre ts Luffy they sent an Admiral and not just a strong VA like Tsuru or Pomsky. The Admirals defend any and every CD when ever even though they reasonably shouldn't even have to be at their every beck and call.
Meanwhile this mf Kaidou was literally plotting to drag the CDs off their thrones and off Mariejois and onto a warzone and they didn't even TRY to stop him, in fact they thought they killed Nika and were still talking about losing Guernica to Kaidou and angering him as well, when normally they should value their "victory" against Nika way more than angering Kaidou if he were really just a measly pawn to them.
