I agree Harald is a top tier as strong as Xebec/Garp/Roger in the flashback. But my question was why it's silly to not have Xebec as the top guy.
Harald-Xebec was focused on more since the flashback is mostly Harald-centric. The conflict of Roger-Xebec is voided, along with any interactions that happened between Garp-Xebec.
With Roger it's already implied they had met up with each other numerous times.
It's pretty clear from the below panel, Roger-Rocks were the two top dogs on the seas for piracy.
The narrator in the same flashback makes sure to remind the reader who the one that stands atop of the pirate world is. It's not like Roger was sitting on his ass doing nothing while Rocks and them were running around causing destruction. Blud became the 1st person in 800 years to reach lodestar, the 1st and only to ever do it even a decade later by the time of Oden flashback.
With Garp it's pretty clear that Xebec-Garp even before God Valley had gone against each other multiple times to the point Xebec was familiar with Garp's inner thinkings/ideology. Along with Garp actually showing active care about Rocks during their fight from being the 1st to ask Rocks about undoing his curse rather than just straight up whooping on him. To then being the one to go out of his way to comfort Xebec's feelings he was going through at that time.
While Harald-Xebec were friends on great terms with each other. It's made pretty clear to the readers multiple times in the flashback that Roger-Garp-Xebec have great deep connections with each other as enemies and have interacted with each other multiple times. His connection with Harald is given prominence since it's about how Harald was effected by Xebec. Showing casing Roger-Xebec-Garp interacting over the course of that flashback multiple times would've just increased the length of the flashback and took the focus off Harald, which God Valley did for few chapters.
And of course the below panel makes it clear who the 3-man dawgs from that era are. Harald isn't one of them, just like Newgate/Sengoku/etc aren't.
But again, i'm not contending whether you have Xebec as top 1 or Harald as top 1. I'm asking why you think it's silly to not have Xebec as top of the verse, when he's not cemented above Roger or Garp.

Y’all gotta learn that portrayal >>>>>> feats in Odapiece.
For example, Oda clearly believes that Kid and Law are equals and that Kid’s Corna Dio and Damned Punk are very powerful moves, comparable to Law’s Awakening, even though they looked lame af on panel. It’s just a failure of execution. @ZenZu @Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier

Comparing Kidd’s performance against both Meme and Shanks literally proves oda doesn’t think they’re in the same ballpark. There’s a reason why Shanks was saved until the final saga. Hell, The last major feat right before the final saga ended belongs to Shanks and it completely tilted the powerscaling levels
