Theory Imu will induct admirals into the holy knights after Elbaf

#1
If Imu’s mission on Elbaf fails, he’d really have no other choice. The admirals are among the WG’s strongest weapons. With the return of Nika, Nidhogg, Poseidon, and Davy, it just makes no sense for Imu to still give hand outs to bum knights like Sommers and Qilingham.

Especially not when you have powerful top tier Celestial Dragon loyalists on the marines side such as: Akainu, Greenbull, and Kong.

Imo giving these powerhouses the deep sea contract will raise the stakes, making the WG a much more formidable force in the final war.

I don't like it as it would strip away the admirals of their individualities but it would be the logical move to do *in universe*.
Admirals with contract boost + immortality should be a chunk above any normal top tier even without omen , and it would indeed raise the stakes.
And with the mind control from Imu can be sure of their loyalty
But CDs have a massive superiority complex and I doubt they would accept commoners suddenly having a higher rank than them, even a super strong royalty like Harald had to work for decades before getting this "privilege".

What for? They are strong enough as they are.
Are they really? Luffy has countless powerful allies. He is leaving Elbaf with the allegiance of Loki and the giant warriors. The WG needs to likewise get a power up otherwise they won’t be as threatening.

There is no logical reason why bum knights should get immortality over the admirals. Perhaps it might have made sense in times of peace, but it makes no sense when the old gods like Nika and Nidhogg have returned.

I don't think that Imu will fail in Elbaf. We already know how this arc will end: Adam tree will be destroyed by the God of the Destruction. And that is IMU, not Loki or Nika.

But yes, for the Final War Imu will make Admirals as his HK

I doubt it because atp none of them seem loyal enough outside of Greenbull.

And even he might be engaging in some unforseen fuckery that we have yet to see.
 
#7
The admirals with a hell theme to their powers will join Imu in some way keeping with the demonic theme of the WG.

Akainu - magma - western hell
Greenbull - forest - eastern hell

The other admirals won’t fully join/will betray
 

MUUGEN

greenbull th eonly bum who will do it tbh after getting neg diffed by shanks and admitting he was a little bitch compared to kaido he needs every powercreep he can get

Kong will as well. The guy lives in Mariejois, he’s probably a bootlicker.

And regardless of how old or washed he is, he’s definitely stronger than the bum knights

How can you make such a random theories? You could not ignore what is happening in the manga. Fujitora has been already shown not loyal to WG. Even Kizaru who was very long time shown as unquestioningly subordinate in Egghead got great character development that suggests he won't be a "corporate slave" like before. Sengoku told Garp if you want change Navy you should have a high rank. It's obvious that he meant Fleet Admiral position. But he hasn't changed anything so that this role moves to Akainu. He is the only one who should decide Navy's rebellion against WG.

Hope Imu dies and Lord Aka Inu becomes King.

No

admirals are rebelling

Well maybe gb will be holy knighted cause he seems to be a CD fanboy

But akainu fuji and kizaru wont be
Some admirals are bootlickers and said bootlickers will probably take Imu’s contract. Greenbull and Kong are one of these, but so is Akainu.

Akainu is literally driven by hate. He hates pirates more than anything and wants to destroy them. If Imu said he could make Akainu strong enough to beat Luffy, Akainu would take it.

The guy is already a dog to the CDs, we saw this when he was fighting Kuma.

Some marines will rebel. Koby will probably lead that. But the villains definitely won’t.

That's because you think all of them will come to the final battle and have a 1v1.
Just look at Wano or Egghead, what all that some straw hats did was running around and say they believe in Luffy.

The issue is that Imu needs to wage a war against the 4 yonkos, the revolutionary army, and any other allies those guys might have.

in such a war, Akainu would obviously need immortality more than Sommers

Not a single admiral would accept that nonsense.
Why? Greenbull believes the CDs are gods. Akainu was literally portrayed as a dog of the CDs. All he cares about is killing pirates. Kong literally lives in Mariejois.

Like I said, that's because you believe everybody will ally against Imu and have a 1v1. That isn't happening.
Pirates, by definition, oppose the WG. As do the Revolutionaries. The question of 1v1s is besides the point. It doesn’t look good when the leader of the marines is a near equal to one of Teach’s subordinates.
