General & Others If 5 Admirals are teleported to Egghead, what changes?

#61
I just took in, that it would change a lot if it were the 5 Admirals, just in terms of what it would take for SH to escape.

Joyboy haki was enough to send the Gorosei back cause they used some summoning bs and Imu was twerking in fear from afar. But when it comes to Kizaru he was still sticking around, could have easily continue to give chase if he wants, likewise Kuzan could freeze the ocean etc. etc.

So basically it would take a lot more outside interference, the whole Joyboy haki storage moment would have to be rewritten, it wouldn't solve anything here.
hmm
maybe joyboy's haki can stun them to the point that they are unable to use their abilities till the time the strawhats escape

We saw greenbul getting kicked out of his zoan form by shanks , something similar might happen to other admirals

Seems unlikely that blast or its effects could last long enough to create enough distance in order for the Admirals to give up chase, if they really wanted to. Kizaru can travel very far very fast, Kuzan can freeze the ocean across multiple islands in no time, Fujitora's range goes all the way up to outer space lmfao.

Exactly. You, Franky and Jinbei are on the money. It’s actually absolutely insane. Dont remember the numbers exactly but something like

5 Gorosei
1 Admiral
4 Seraphim
3 Masked CP-0
50 Pacifista
1 Supernova
10 Vice Admirals
1 Special Bodyguard
10 Battleships
100 CP Operatives
500 Marines
Impregnable fortress with weapons

That is what was against the SHP and they escaped with minor injuries + Lilith Vegapunk and Bonney. Best feat in the series next to Sabos in Mariejois
Even worse and more dangerous than the scenario at marineford for wb'pirates lol

Plot saved shp's ass this time more than ever

While I agree, just look at how differently Oda portrayed the Admirals on MF and the Gorosei on Egghead.

Akainu alone was taking on hoards of enemies, mowing everyone down, took a chunk off WB's face, Had the entire WBP try and stop him including Crocodile, killed Ace, put a massive hole in Jimbei, scarred Luffy, he just was not letting Luffy leave. And then a whole other Emperor had to step in to stop his advance. Law had to perform surgery on Jimbei and Luffy to save their lives.

So MF showed us what a motivated Akainu looked like and the sheer mayhem he caused by himself alone, and what was required to stop him. The Gorosei on egghead looked like they couldn't do anyone any harm. Idk if this massive difference is by design, or Oda fell off that hard. You can have the villains "fail" but still make them threatening depending on how you go about it.
The difference is that in MF, there was literally an army of fodder the Marines can piece up willy nilly as none of their deaths would cause the narrative of the Straw Hats succeeding to be jeopardized. In MF, there were strong fighters on the allies side that could afford to get overpowered as they aren't important to the story, and would like not show up in any significant way, whereas the only strong fighters on the ally side are the main characters, and Emeth I guess. There aren't bodies to give to the Gorosei to look superb. Unlike Egghead, there was a powerful person that was set up to die in MF.

The comparison between the Gorosei and the Admirals' performances in these separate arcs are apples and oranges.

From what we have seen gorosei , both peter and saturn seem weaker than admirals but they had regen. On the other hand topman possibly is stronger than admirals. But joyboy's haki subdues them long enough for SH to escape.
