Gorosei have to be strong imo
This is perfect arc to show us why Marines and World Gov are the true threat
Marines are basically sending all their best fighters other then Akainu to deal with them.
One of the Gorosei, Kizaru and all Seraphins are there to deal with them. This should nearly be as hard as WCI and Wano was for the Straw Hats
Yeah definitely. S-hawk, depending on the fruit, can easily end up being as powerful as a CoC swordsman, pretty much a low top tier atleast, S-bear has the Nikyu no mi, which is just annoying as fuck, even for powerhouses like Luffy and Zoro, Kizaru is just Kizaru.
And the Gorosei seemingly did not age since the Ohara indicent happened. They could be hand picked by Imu from over the past centuries, as they are probably former celestial dragons and those guys also give birth to CoC users at times- Doffy. Three of them have scars, which means they are likely battle tested. Wouldn't be surprised if they are the best fighters the celestial dragons brought up over the last centuries or perhaps they were chosen as ones, because of certain accomplishments or some.
Either strong advCoC or a very powerful DF and they are pretty much low top tiers atleast already. Hopefully Saturn shows some good stuff.
