In MF , Oda had to put several handicaps on WB to make the story interesting:-
1)Old WB was sick & almost always surrounded by medical equipments and nurses & Oda drew many other scenes and lines emphasizing that Wb's sickness was weakening him a lot. Even Crocodile & Marco confirmed that later etc.
2)He got stabbed by Squardo.
3)He got heart attack due to his health issues mid fight at the unluckiest & worst possible time. (i.e. when facing Akainu)
4)Akainu encashed on this opportunity and dealt a huge blow on WB...a chance that he got for free & WB took even more damage.
5)WB was shown to be so weak that he couldnt even activate his basic CoC to save Ace from execution twice let alone his Acoc. So he fought without Acoc in MF.
^^ Despite of the above handicaps an old & sick near dead WB temporarily 2 KOd Akainu after Ace died.
After Akainu was hit by WB's island splitter , having taken that hit , Akainu became so weak that he wasn't even strong enough to prevent himself from falling into the crack. Just like fodder marines around him at that very moment who also were falling into that crack , yes Akainu had become as weak as them since they were also unable to prevent themselves from falling into the crack. All Akainu could do was say "Damn you Whitebeard". Thats as good as accepting defeat in Akainu's own words. Yes after a while he recovered enough strength to be able to overpower ivankov & some wb commanders.
And no dont say that Oh but Akainu wanted to kill Luffy first. Yeah he wanted to sure. But when WB landed his first punch , Akainu accepted the challenge and blew WB's head off (old sick & near dead WB was very slow since he couldnt dodge squardo's attack either) so Akainu clearly wanted to fight WB at that moment but after getting overwhelmed by WB's island splitter he was shut down & all he could say at that point was "Damn you WB" lol.
Shanks or Kaido wont be getting heart attack mid battle vs any Admiral. They will fight without the above 5 handicaps vs Akainu. Old & sick & near dead WB even with the above 5 handicaps still overwhelmed Akainu & sent him straight into the huge crack created by his island splitter move. So Kaido & Shanks will perform much better than that old sick & near dead WB.
>>Shanks/Kaido/& even just an old WB without the above 5 handicaps(eg. an Old WB who could use Acoc, who is not sick , who is not stabbed by squardo, who does not get heart attack & akainu doesnt get to weaken him by getting a lucky chance to land a free hit on wb) definitely mid diff Akainu.
>>Prime Xebec/Roger/WB low diff Akainu at the minimum because Prime WB had got to be much much stronger than even the old WB, let alone compared to an old sick & near dead WB with 5 handicaps set on him throughout the war.
>>Akainu looks headed to be in all likelihood not even be the final main villan of Luffy. Sabo vs Akainu a rematch of mera mera & magma df seems more likely right now. Imu(who is most likely the King of the World which is what Xebec's ambition was) & 5 Gorosei look to be Luffy's final villans.
>>None of the Admirals have Acoc and we saw how much boost acoc gives in luffy vs kaido fight. Kaido even said it himself in the end that Haki rules above everything else. And Admirals are primarily df heavy fighters primarily. They definitely have strong haki but them so far not having Acoc bodes very poorly for them vs Kaido/shanks with Acoc let alone PK Roger who must have been even stronger than a "mere yonko".
Old& sick Wb was a mere yonko but Prime WB was Roger's equal.<-buggy's words .
>>Damage tanking feats of old&sick Wb, BM & Kaido are far more impressive than what Admirals have shown so far.
But despite all of the above Admirals might still not be shown to be low diffed because they are great villans & them being low diffed will dehype them a lot & oda isnt that bad of a writer.
Character wise i love Admirals more than certain yonkos like BM but power wise Yonkos with their Acoc & tanking feats trump easily over Admirals in my book & has been implictly suggested in the manga & i listed above just a few of those evidences.
To Conclude:- Prime Xebec/Roger/WB >> Old Wb(with Acoc, without sickness,without squardo stab, without mid battle heart attack,without taking damage by akainu's free hit which he got as a lucky chance due to wb getting heart attack at the worst moment possible)/shanks/kaido >> MF near dead WB (who despite of the above 5 handicaps overwhelmed Akainu with the island splitter.....later feats that Akainu did are irrelevant to what went down between near dead old sick Wb vs Akainu)>Akainu.
Tldr:-
>>MF near dead WB (who despite of the above 5 handicaps (see first 5 points handicaps that oda set on MF WB) overwhelmed Akainu with the island splitter.....later feats that Akainu did are irrelevant to what went down between near dead old sick Wb vs Akainu)>Akainu.
^^ This version of WB (i.e. old sick MF WB <- called the strongest man even by MF sengoku)extreme diffs Akainu .
>>Shanks/Kaido/Old Wb(with Acoc, without sickness,without squardo stab, without mid battle heart attack,without taking damage by akainu's free hit which he got as a lucky chance due to wb getting heart attack at the worst moment possible) >> Akainu
^^ They high diff Akainu
>>Prime WB who has gotta be far more stronger than an old version of himself >>> Akainu. So Prime Xebec/Prime Roger/Prime WB belong to PK tier (A tier above even the Yonko Shanks/Kaido). These Monsters low diff Akainu.
Vote & let me know your thoughts. Plus you know recent spoilers lol. Wont mention them ofcourse but lets just say i am happy with them lol.
