Blud, you do remember that Jinbe fought evenly with a stronger version of Ace, right? So is it Jinbe > Hanafuda >~ Doflamingo >> Katakuri?
:milaugh:It only proves that Jinbei isn't really below Doffy

Doffy is the weakest og warlord

Prime Moriah/ Hanafuda both clears since they clashed Kaido and earned his respect (at least hanafuda did)
Mihawk is above any warlord
Current Crocodile is above Doffy. At MF, he didn't even view Doffy to be worthy of an alliance
Hancock is also superior : she got invited for her strength while doffy had to blackmail

Jinbei fought evenly against Ace who defeated someone above Doffy
 
Bit better, but then really, Kid somehow manages to defeated, threaten and terrify Snack enough for him for him to betray Big Mom like that? And no one else notices?

Does Snack not have the brains to simply... tell BM what happened? Raise the alarm at some point, send the whole furious army after a crew that would get wrecked in seconds?

The whole thing raises a lot of questions and I don’t think there’s any satisfactory answers to them.
BM pirates suffer from authoritarian leadership, no one speaks out because of the consequence of failing. We saw this in WCI where the one grunt lied about Luffy not escaping.

It happens quite a lot in real life as well.
 
So Ace basically defeated Kaido's partner, essentially putting a stop in his ancient zoan fruit supply :steef: :ace:
:BigW:

And people think Ace was below Marco /King
Luffy only surpassed Ace when he got FS

Luffy defeated Doffy (the bootleg version of Kaido's partner) while Ace defeated his og warlord partner (Hanafuda)

Hanafuda > Doffy
Primebeard >= Kaido
Ace >= Pre fs Luffy
 
So Ace basically defeated Kaido's partner, essentially putting a stop in his ancient zoan fruit supply :steef: :ace:
This makes me kind of believe Hanafuda > Doffy honestly
Not only was he better in terms of the supplies he gave to Kaido (Doffy only gave shitty SMILE fruits while Hanafuda had genuine Devil Fruits, with some of them being Ancient Zoans), but he also lost to someone stronger than who Doffy lost to (Ace > Dressrosa Luffy). Also Kaido seemed to trust and like him more than he did with Doffy.
