Speculations Luffy vs Akainu will happen very soon

#1
Luffy has defeated Kaido and Big Mom, not many opponents left, besides Imu. Only two, to be precise: Blackbeard and Akainu. In fact, Jinbe primed Luffy, and us, for the pair, when they entered the New World. The two chief changes: Blackbeard became an Emperor, Akainu the Fleetadmiral.

Blackbeard still has things to do before losing to Luffy. His bounty is lower than Kaido's. Luffy will fight him when Teach has overtaken the Azure Dragon in notoriety. Blackbeard still hasn't shown a third DF yet. Most importantly, he hasn't defeated Shanks yet. He hasn't peaked yet. Defeating Shanks, with the help of a third DF, will put his bounty over 4,6 billion.


Many think Akainu is not up there with the best anymore, which is absurd. Even though the Blackbeard Pirates stole the kill, he did the most damage to Whitebeard. He defeated another Top Tier: Kuzan. Most importantly, he gave Luffy a huge scar, which is symbolic. Luffy flinches when he hears his name.


He is in his prime. His bounty his higher than Kaido's: 5 billion.


He already had an Admiral chase Luffy (and Law). Without success.


Not only was Luffy not caught, his brazen self declared underlings almost killed a Celestial Dragon.


Akainu has declared that he will return fire, but how? He never leaves Marineford. New Marineford actually.


There is a New HQ. So should Luffy attack it, he wouldn't need to cross the Redline anymore. How convenient. Or do you think we won't see this new location?


He will draw Luffy to New Marineford, by staging the execution of Bartolomeo (and Law). We were already told that actions of the Grandfleet will trigger a big event.


Think about his name: Sakazuki, jsut like the cups are called that the Grandfleet members drank to celebrite their union


The chapter were they drink the cups, and the big event is foretold, is called Son's cups, or in japanese Kobun Sakazuki!

The navy will capture a Grandfleet member and Akainu will order his public execution to lure Luffy to New Marineford, so Akainu can finish what he started before the Timeskip.

One of them just had his ship blow up. Easy picking, even for navy fodder.


Bartolomeo got angry when someone laughed about Luffy for failing to save Ace


He became a fan of Luffy, when he watched Buggy almost execute Luffy



Barto will find himself on the scaffold. Luffy will come to his rescue. How happy he will be.

Strawhats will head straight from Elbaf to navy HQ. Each chapter now the news of Barto's and Law's execution will spread. We were already prepared for news arriving in Elbaf

BB Is killing Shanks this arc. This year even, as Oda foreshadowed.

Jokes aside, Akainu vs Dragon is really the only alternative to Akainu vs Luffy. Surely not Sabo lol.

They clearly have a deep hidden past and there are clear parallels, form same age to same role to same bounty to both having some involvent in Ohara etc.
