That's what youre using? By that logic Whitebeard was powerless to go against Kaido thats why he allowed Oden to fall because he didn't move on Wano the moment it happened.
But now we know its more complex than that. Kaido and Newgate are former Nakama, so there's a complexity here as well between Gaban and Loki that I feel youre being purposely obtuse about just to feed an agenda and its why I keep using the term disingenuous.
Gaban is damn near an Elbaf native, has a home, wife and child there. He probably knows EXACTLY what Loki has been through and thats why he egged Luffy on with the key and then out right tells Harujidin to free him?
I dont think its he couldn't ever stop Loki physically. He just didn't want to.
Can we please have a genuine debate here? These strawman stantions about strength and bounties, and comparisons I've seen to people like Carrot or haja Monet who we all know never had this kind of range of focus of character. I'll give ya'll Yamato and Vivi, Oda toed some lines forsure.
It's wasting time, I feel like we haven't had a legit candidate like this in awhile imo.
