Questions & Mysteries Is fighting Akainu a downgrade now?

#1
Since Luffy is in a serious battle vs Imu now, and seriously wounded already, meaning the fight will get even more serious from now on so the question is how Akainu vs Luffy can be exciting?

We see Aokiji (Akainu's equal) also fought in a serious battle vs Old Garp, and even then Aokiji needed Shiryu's stab and Pizarro's island power forcing Garp to keep fighting, so they could capture him. So basically mean Akainu level power such as Aokiji's wasn't enough vs Old Garp, so how it can be enough vs Luffy who is fighting Imu right now.

This might be similar to after Luffy defeats Kaido, he fought Kizaru. It didn't feel like downgrade because Kizaru had Saturn backing him up then other 4 Gorosei also showed up.

Now if we assume Luffy will return and fight Imu, his fight vs Akainu won't be exciting at all.

It could be like Luffy vs multiple opponents; Kizaru+Saturn example.

Is Luffy vs Akainu will be a long, death match like 1 vs 1 battle? Or will other characters interfere so it won't be that serious?

I personally like Sabo or Dragon fighting Akainu more, but Luffy might also fight him then they can separate in a team battle.

Personally, I see Akainu as Doflamingo to Imu's Kaidou,
And while Luffy is Main Opponent of WG, He is instead the Law of Akainu's Story, with Ace being his Rosinante,

So imo, Marines should be Defeated by another Pirate Crew that Luffy can Ally with,
And that's Red-Hair Pirates,

Luffy's Marine Opponent will always be Kizaru imo,
While Akainu gets defeated by Shanks, Ryokugyu probably by Beckman, and Fujitora by Mihawk,
(As Cross Guild are gonna be like Riku Family of that Battle, meaning the ones who wanna dethrone them)

Yeah, Marineford feats are not aging well. Only the island-tilting shit that WB and BB pulled off is still impressive.

luffy is way too weak for imu, akainu might be an appropriate training tool to get stronger. also, the scar still aches. had eric the whirlwind killed ace right before luffy's eyes, even he would be an exciting villain. luffy will not return to fight imu for many many chapters. elbaf will be followed by new marineford, then moon arc and bb fight, then laughtale (true history, imu's crimes revealed) and only then will luffy overcome imu.

It will be exciting cause the power scaling that the power ranger fans are pushing doesn't make any sense.


They already give up the Ragnir=Harald bullshit.
Soon they will also stop to say Loki>Shanks and all the bullshits we have been hearing a lot.

It's a huge step back, because Egghead proved that an admiral poses no threat to Luffy, and Kizaru is comparable to Akainu, so if Akainu is only slightly stronger, that barely matters. Not to mention Luffy fought Kizaru and Saturn at the same time and suffered no consequences from it, dominating both of them. So it doesn't matter if Akainu is a bit stronger than Kizaru or not.

Kizaru was standing over an unconscious Luffy and chose to help him

Akainu has been giving the usual suspects nightmares for well over a decade now.

That will still be Luffy’s most personal fight, so trying every which way to try to deny or decry it doesn’t work.
Wanting the story to be worse for the sake of holding on to outdated powerscaling folly will always be bizarre behaviour
:watchout:

Luffy got one shot and won’t do shit against Imu you dumb TFVclown
Retard TFVdog think Imu is losing this arc lol…
He must be "triggered". Look at these insults @AL sama for no reason, yet he bans for 2 months when I do the same.

Funny thing is the insulting clown was licking my boots and calling me Daddy few months ago, now he insults me for writing the same things, what a weirdo. :vistalaugh:
We desperately need Werkan Sama back @Erkan12. With all the new information revealed after he went offline, he'd be cooking these ZKKclowns on a daily
