Akainu is going to find someway to rationalize being with the government still.
I don’t think so.
This is a brilliant writing choice, because it forces Akainu to sympathize with Pirates. The WG will not spare Akainu or the Marines, why would they? They don’t need the Marines anymore, they have the Seraphim and the Holy Knights, and they’re about to reset the rest of the population back to level zero. Why would they spare the Marines, especially if they intend to bury this history again? (They do)
Now Akainu’s choices are:
1. Continue to oppose pirates and die alongside them
2. Join the pirates and fight for survival
Brilliant. Even Ryokugyu won’t want to go along with this shit lmfao.
