FA > Admirals
Oda specifically thinks FA position puts you a tier above Admirals . Even when he hypes BM potential to be a marine.
For me, Akainu taking 10 days to beat Aokiji ends that convo. That showed that, Akainu is just like the other 4, a bit stronger maybe but not on a whole other level.
I just prefer to see Marines as Marines with CoC (Garp/Sengoku) & Marines who dont have CoC.
Topman is the strongest, oda gave him a better durability than them all and also showed a vetter CoC feat.
Please Ndule.
Durability is just his forte & he was allowed to use his CoC in a roar. There is no indication that his Haki or his PL is on a different level to the others.
They're all the same, literally clones of each other with different designs & powersets.
It's like with og Yonko, they are all on the same level yet kaido is slightly or clearly above them all (Whitebeard is the strongest if he wasn't sick and old)
Yea, being stronger is one thing but being on a whole different level is another thing. I hope you get my point.
