General & Others Why the World Government is so passive ?

Let’s sum up.

The World Government practically has 30 fighters who can put an end to Yonkou crews.
I mean they have 3 Admirals + a Fleet Admiral (Sengoku and now Akainu) + Kong + Honorary Admirals with Garp (and Sengoku now).

They have 13 immortal Holy Knights (which only Conqueror haki users can hurt) + a commander and a Supreme Commander.

They have the Gorosei. And they have CP0 with strong fighters like Lucci, Kaku, Guernika (before his death), Maha, Joseph and maybe Stussy.

I understand the World Govermnent has to keep some fighters like some Admirals to guard Marigeois and Marineford but they have the sheer number and power to end Yonkou crews if they wanted it.

I mean just keep 2 Admirals to guard Marigeois. Keep Kong and the Fleet Admiral to keep Marineford.
You still have 1 Admiral left + Garp + Sengoku to fight a Yonkou Crew.

With some guarding Marigeois and Marineford, the Gorosei can go down and fight. Same with the CP0 and the Holy Knights.

And we saw than even with 100.000 soldiers called to fight, the Marine still have soldiers left in the Marine bases.

In short, I don’t understand why the World Government let Emperors running free.
Okay, it’s beneficial to them to have the Yonkou to keep some balance in the World. But if the World Government truly wanted to get rid of the Yonkou, they have the number and power to do it.
But why keeping a balance when you can erase Yonkou crews ???

Because they have control.

Domination is brittle, it's a mask, a cover of efficiency. Enormous control creates the illusion of absolute control and therefore the conditions for the destruction of said control.

When one think they are superior, they will have a lot more reason to lower their guard and underestimate resistances or rebellions.

This is how empire fall.

As far as we know, the wg has been chilling for like 800 years
there's been like one off incidents like the robot attack on mj 200 years ago. But those are implied to be very rare.
It's only been in the last 50 years that shit have happened. So they got complacent and just don't care in general


Also, immortality or long lives means they can just outlive most of their problems

They had deals with Kaido and Big Mom through CP0. Why take them down ?

WB I can't see making deals with them but I can see him not being worth the risk. They can take him down (they did) but he can hurt them really badly.

Shanks is a special case.

Luffy, Buggy and Blackbeard are more recent...

Why having deals with Yonkou when they just can erase them and take the monopoly...

The existence of four big bad monsters would justify their wages with government-affiliated nations, which make the bulk of their power.

For the nature of the story it's easy to forget, but the vast majority of the OP world is in the four blues, or the first half of the grand line. They can move on to the new world, but just killing the emperors doesn't mean they won't deal with revolts and instability, while the WG has plenty to deal with in their own territories. There's also just general plot

OP's world is massive + you will suffer loss going in a war against Younko
Younko are also useful to them :
- they control non affiliated countries
- They destroy pirates (a pirate in the new world has 2 choices fighting them or working for them)

They aren’t a menace they can’t read poneglyphs

Imu is immortal

Why do something about a problem when you can just wait another 100 years for the problem to die, this is the major point

Second, the Emperors exist only because the WG allow them, the Emperors themselves created the ideal choke point and struggle threshold where no pirate can become PK with them around

Third, a Planet is big beyond you can imagine, all the strength of the world can't control it if you don't want to kill everyone

Because to win all they have to do is wait. Their goals to simply flood the earth as such all they have to do is wait until someone comes along that can create the mother flame. If they’re too active they’re more likely to spike rebellions against them.

Humans by nature crave an enemy. We need something to fear or complain about. With the current system the WG have the perfect excuse for whatever people complain about. They can always point to the Pirates being the problem. Most people in the world (90 %) believe the WG & Marines to be righteous and saviors. 8 % become pirates. 2 % become revolutionaries.

What the world doesn't know is that the most successful pirates, the higher up you get, all have to pay tribute to the WG. Doflamingo & Mihawk directly as Shichibukai, certain percentage of their loot. Yonko Big Mom & Kaido indirectly through trade.

Kind of a parallell to real life where some countries have gangs, cartells, terrorists or maffia. In the end, if those groups don't pay the church or the state a certain percentage/tribute they will experience some righteous democracy or clean up. Doflamingo said it best: "Oh, so they claim justice will prevail? Of course it will! Whoever wins BECOME justice".
