Speculations The other admirals are probably getting beaten by side characters

Will no Yonko be a main arc villain again?
Shanks D. Snitch

Shanks reveals he is EVIL, and Luffy saves Kid, so Kid finally defeats Shanks and becomes Pirate King much to Luffys dismay and claps Hancock's cheeks while Luffy watches crying his eyes out after he realizes he is straight through unlocking his straight Haki

  • Ace sacrificed himself to protect Luffy.
  • Luffy received the scar from Akainu while he was already unconscious.
  • The weakness of Luffy that almost made him give up, he was lamenting his own weakness, not Akainu.
  • Ace's will was passed on as Devil Fruits now possess wills.
  • Sabo needs to do something to make up for what happened with the Ace, Sabo himself lamented and blamed himself for not remembering earlier.
  • Luffy has already overcome Ace's death, as demonstrated in Wano through his interaction with O-tama.
  • Luffy is not a vengeful person; otherwise, after training during the Time Skip, he would have gone after Kizaru, who "defeated" the tired SHS crew with the help of Kuma, Pacifista, and Sentomaru, or he would have gone after Akainu.
Yes, with all of this aligned, Akainu could become the new Blueno 2.0.

Unless Luffy stops growing, or Akainu is the very next major villain (and even then) I have to agree with you in that this is a bit of a conundrum.

There just isn't a big enough gap between Kizaru and Akainu if at all, to justify Luffy beating him here and Akainu near EOS. The other options are either Akainu makes it dirty (fights a compromised Luffy), or Akainu is simply that bad of a matchup for Luffy.

Yes

  1. Luffy vs kizaru
  2. Blackbeard vs Aokiji
  3. Law vs fujitora
    • Blackbeard emperor replacement vs Aokiji admiral replacement
  4. Shanks vs akainu
  5. Kid vs ryokugyu
    • Shanks emperor replacement vs Akainu admiral replacement

There is no basis for kid, law and sabo to defeat admirals.


It will be luffy who will defeat Akainu.

There will be a difference because Luffy vs Akainu is more personal.

Second, magma brat is more lethal.

Third, Akainu will be stronger than kizaru. I mean, you are talking about someone who is Fleet Admiral and who killed MC brother right in front of him.

Rest assured oda will wank Akainu like he did never before. Power levels will be out of place but oda never gave a fuck about it anyway

Given how Luffy is set up to 1v1 Kizaru, this basically shuts down the notion that the admirals will be main villains in any other arc.

Luffy will surpass the admirals in egghead. Out of all the admirals, Kizaru has the best DF. It’s even better than Akainu’s magma fruit. While Akainu is likely stronger due to haki, I just don’t think it’s to the point to where he can actually be an arc villain.

This means that in all likelihood, the other admirals are falling to side characters. Probably:
  • Sabo vs Akainu
  • Kid vs GB
  • Law vs Fujitora
I think GB and Fuji could fall before the final war. But Akainu will likely be Sabo’s EoS matchup.
It wont be as straightforward, there are too many marines, and not all of them are villains. E.g. I dont see the need for Fuji to get beaten. This guy could very well be the fleet admiral in the epilogue.

Lol. Zoro and Sanji are obviously fighting Fuji and Ryo.

It’s exactly like how Luffy fought YC Katakuri an arc prior to Zoro and Sanji fighting YC King and YC Queen. Zoro and Sanji will fight Admirals Fuji and Ryo while Luffy fights Fleet Admiral Sakazuki

Imo Fuji should be someone who recognizes that the WG is bad, but finds the crooked order imposed by then preferable to the chaos that would ensue if pirates could run around unchecked (remember that like 99% of pirates are terrible people). Fuji should be a “improve from within” type rather than a “tear it down and replace it” type. Fuji being basically an undercover Rev would be such boring and generic writing.

People also seem to have this headcanon that Luffy is gonna reveal some unspeakable evil that the WG did during the Void Century, and it’s gonna be so repulsive to Fuji that he’s compelled to abandon the Marines. Fuji has literally seen the Celestial Dragons beat, torture, and probably rape their slaves. He’s seen the CDs be the worst people imaginable, and that’s not enough to make him abandon the WG. It would make Fuji look really bad if that’s not enough to make him want to abolish the WG, but Imu being a meanie to the Ancient Kingdom is enough

Yeah but Akainu won’t be the main villain of the final war, that’s imu

The gap between Kizaru and Akainu ain't that much (as compared to say Cracker and Kata) but the emontional trauma will hinder G5, makes it more difficult for Luffy to fight Akainu.
Or it's just my copium talkin

Well... yeah

Luffy's taking Akainu, don't think Kizaru goes down here

Worst case scenario Akainu goes to Sabo (won't happen)

Kizaru goes to Zoro

Fuji won't be an opponent in the final arc

Greenbull probably goes to Sanji, Kidd, or Law

Aokiji probably isn't rejoining the Marines

Sakazuki is above the others. He’s the fleet admiral for a reason. He’ll fight Luffy.

Kid and law have no reason to fight admirals. Kids dead and Laws in hiding.
Idk how some of y'all still believe Kid is dead

This is One Piece

If Kid were to die he'd probably get a better send off than that
