In One Piece.
Every arc is structured.
Big Boss fights Luffy. His main and direct subordinated fight Luffy's men.
Imu is big boss. Gorosei are direct subordinates.
And narratively speaking. There's more importance to beating the gorosei than there is the admirals.
The gorosei are presumably immortal. They aren't necessarily as old as Imu. But we do know they have been around for a long time. I imagine they average out at a few hundred years. Maybe 300 years each.
Vegapunk...the gorosei look the same. While vegapunk aged 30-40 years presumably.
Vegapunk was 43 in the flashback with dragon. And easily looks MUCH older than he did with the gorosei lol.
So I repeat. You can easily replace an admiral with a draft. In fact. You can replace two! They are cogs like Kizaru said.
You cannot replace a gorosei. They've been around since Kong at minimum was the FA. And outlasted Sengoku's tenure as FA. And may even outlast Akainu if Akainu goes down before the gorosei.
And it only makes sense. Why is Imu the ONE AND ONLY immortal in the WG? If Imu got the immortality surgery, it's only natural some other dudes got it.
They've had 800 years for this.
