Character's Power Levels are Defined through Fighting Styles given to them by Oda,
And Fighting Styles are Defined by their Signature Techniques,
I don't care about Character's Exact Stats, because They are gonna be included in their Fighting-Style anyway,
For example, no need for me to say "Aokiji is Physically Strong", his Strength is already included in his Attacks such as Ice Glove,
So their Stats are like Ingredients, while their Fighting Style is like their Cooking Menu, which is what matters,
And i don't care about all Variations of their Techniques & how their Ultimate Attack looks like & their Transformation ... etc
Because you only need to Compare "Signature Attacks" & Rest gonna fall in same Distance Relatively,
So for example, Ace's Fighting Style is Defined by "Hiken", while Akainu's is Defined by "Dai Funka", i don't need to see the Rest, because whatever Ace does, Akainu will answer with his own Version of it, so One Attack is enough to put Akainu above Ace, even if We didn't know about who They are,
Top Tier in One Piece is known as "Great Power", hence why We have Three Great Powers,
Admiral Tier Characters (Mid Top Tier/Great Power) have Peak DFs, meaning They have DF-Based Fighting Styles of Highest Level,
So who falls in Low Top Tier? It's DFs that are seen as only Second to those of Admiral Caliber,
Akainu, Kizaru, Aokiji, Fujitora ... etc are in Mid Top Tier,
Doflamingo, Kuma, Ace, Crocodile, Hancock ... etc are in Low Top Tier,
As for High Top Tier? It's for those who have Surpassed DFs either using Haki Alone (Such as Roger/Shanks) or Combination of Two Fighting Styles (Such as Kaidou/WB) or Two Admiral Level DFs (Blackbeard), meaning They are Freaks of Nature & Beyond Human Limits.
