Speculations What order does Luffy beat Sakazuki and Blackbeard?

[Monkey D. Luffy]

I'm going with Sakazuki and then Blackbeard. While Sakazuki will be a big deal to Luffy in the final war, Blackbeard will definitely rise up to be the bigger threat. It's in his initial concept. Oda had intended Blackbeard to be stronger than all three Admirals put together until he ditched that power difference, meaning he at least wrote Teach as the grander antagonist in mind.

Keep in mind this isn't a "who will be the final villain" thread. You can still think Imu comes after both.

 

[NicoRobinIsQueen]

Sabo vs akainu is happening

 

[soupongo]

Sakazuki then Blackbeard for sure. The manga is basically about how these 2 pirates rose up through the ranks through notoriety. The halfway point is marineford where Blackbeard tricked the marines into going to war so he could lead a prison breakout and steal whitebeards fruit. He's always doing something. I love Akainu, but the same just isn't true for him.

 

[GalaxyLevelShanks]

Only beats BB. Deskainu is a Sabo victim

 

[nik87]

I am still betting on Sabo vs Akainu.

 

[EmperorKinyagi]

These fools really think Sabo has the portrayal beat someone with a 5B bounty

 

[kyejames316]

Akainu is never fighting Luffy. After Kizaru’s death, Akainu will turn on the government and either be murdered by Imu or turn into a volcano and take out another top tier

You will soon find out Akainu stopped being Luffy's fight when Luffy faced Yonko and Imu is the main villain from WG side

The 5B argument is stupid
Oda doesn't care much about CG bounties
It doesn't make Akainu Luffy's fight

Luffy's major fights are either tied to Yonko or Joyboy , they are there to bring something new which Akainu doesn't
Beating Akainu doesn't also change a thing.

The tragic part is not knowing that Sabo vs Akainu is many times better than Goofy vs Akainu...

You'll come here to say "oda sucks"

Shanks fans already admitting the obvious that Shanks was never gonna fight Luffy as major enemy

Time to accept the obvious
This saga is about Teach and Imu, not Akainu

 

[Monkey D. Luffy]

If Blackbeard is taking out Shanks, then chances are Luffy will take out another top tier, that being Sakazuki.

So who is worthy of taking down a character worth more than any Yonko?

You're really funny to keep using CG bounty argument

Sabo is beating Akainu
That was set since his return in the story

Akainu's CG bounty cause he's FA means nothing
He's not stronger nor more important than Yonko

Luffy is beating a top tier this arc

Teach beating Shanks =/= luffy will beat Akainu
It won't happen

The Flame Emperor, who else...
We will witness a miracle - fire beating magma.
Dont tell me you legit want Akainu dragged into looney tunes shenanigans?

 

[Kōri no kokyū]

Beating Blackbeard first make more sense.
Pirate king will be achieved first as Roger did it as well.
Fighting Imu and WG is grand scheme at play.

So Blackbeard > Akainu > Imu most probably.

But I don't think so luffy will have 3 major battle as we are in the final arc already.

Unless fight with Imu is group battle or Akainu will be fighting Dragon or Sabo.

Tbh it makes sense, current Sabo is probably stronger than Mihawk

 

[Kōri no kokyū]

I wonder if he will ever be stronger than Mihawk in his entire lifetime.

Mihawk is the weakest top tier
That's why he's under Buggy

Nobody above an admiral or Yonko will ever be put under Buggy even as a gag

Weakest top tier has third Highest bounty as of now right behind Shanks in Pirate World. And 4th Behind when considered cross guild bounties.

Now the fun part is he isn't even the captain but subordinate according to you.
Captain Tax > Subordinate tax.
Why is Buggy at 3.1 B then?

- Blackbeard at 2.2 B and Luffy at 3 B is already below Buggy 3.189 B
- All admiral Bounty is 3 B including Garp , and Buggy is still placed above them.
