It's impossible that you didn't understand anything about the Aokiji vs. Garp fight. First, Aokiji never fought at his best, as exemplified by not using his awakening and freezing half the island like Punk Hazard. Second, you still don't understand that Aokiji, in Blackbeard's pirates, sounds like an infiltrator. Third, the mere fact that Aokiji stopped Garp's bleeding demonstrates that he didn't want to kill Garp.
This may be difficult to understand; only someone clueless would believe that Aokiji fought Garp seriously. He needed to fight to avoid arousing suspicion among Blackbeard's pirates.

Aokiji's freezing power is only useful if he can freeze his opponent, immobilize them, or freeze them to the bone and apply physical force to break them. Freezing the entire island doesn't help him at all here, since he can't manipulate that ice β after all, he doesn't have awakening.

Regardless of the role he may take on later, whether he decides to stay or not is irrelevant to what we have now β right now, he is defined as a subordinate of an emperor, not even considered an ally, but a subordinate.

Well, does the mere fact that Shiryu didnβt stab Garp in the head while he was lying on the ground mean he didnβt want to kill him either? Garp was left defenseless > fell to the ground > was immobilized by Aokiji > what to do with Garp after that is up to Blackbeard to decide. Thatβs a pretty weak argument of yours.

Another nonsensical point β whether he defeated Garp quickly or slowly has no correlation whatsoever with raising suspicion, just like Garp showing up in Hachinosu has no correlation with Aokiji. He was there for Koby.
