NGL it is quite funny for you to say we are getting past the point of no return when things like this are still relevant:
1.Admiral have been holding back and now catching major W's...Oda has yet to let them go all out they have quite literally been mentally nerfed.
2.Sakazuki is at 5 bil for his rank of fleet admiral and he currently sits behind a desk.
3.Aokiji does not obey every order bb tells him and still lives freely (strong will for sure).
4. 3 out of 5 supreme grade wielders have coc haki mihawk and fuji have yet to be revealed (which they will be)
5. BB has been super ambitious all throughout op and yet this fact can be ignored by you to push some kind of df supremacy when at every turn oda keeps telling us how important haki is to the story of op and its characters.
I honestly can't wait to see how you react when some if not all (I do believe every one will) of these characters get coc
dont run my guy
