He could have put him in prison imo.
Old Garp can give Akainu the run of his money. Akainu had trouble against WB who had poor CoO.
I don't know about second and third line. For Akainu, he was just doing his job but for WB Pirates, Ace was like their family. Both sides have their own different point of view imo.
just because wb is old doesnt mean he was weak
and same with garp
but I would argue if akainu and wb had a drawn out fight similar to what he and aokiji had , wb would lose, you could see the respective damage both took at the end of the war, and that was with akainu holding back (to limit the destruction ) on mf while wb actively tried to sink it. He could turn the terrain to magma as seen in punk hazard and make it very difficult for anyone .
garp in his prime was prob the strongest marine of his time, akainu is that right now. it would take nothing less than a prime garp to beat him and thats even debatable. From my point of view bb is slated to surpass wb , and akainu-garp as both the pirate , and marine villains for luffy as the pk. some people would argue sabo but I honestly dont see it. sabo has had two run ins with fujitora on the other hand.

Obviously killing pirates is not bad usually, but here the ones who reprents justice and order are a tyrannical bands and one evil king. So the moral compas in One piece is all over the place. Yes pirates are for the most parts scums and marines seems to defend people but the WG are scums, and thé WBP can defend innocent people.
And killing deserters in the One piece world can be understandable even if hard. Before the 20th century I think killing deserters was quite normal is almost all countries. Now in democracies things have changed but One piece world is not our world nor at our current era.
But O'Hara is not a good thing at all
Ohara is the only thing
I wouldnt argue for akainu. it was wrong . plain wrong.
