I was working on a 3 justices and their impact on the evolution of Marines. Getting into the second justice it hit me.. hold on, even though justices are important to the Marines.. how important are they to the actual World Government top dogs who run the world. So I got into some digging to find some evidence of the top WG officials: Gorosei or IMU having any references or hints about justice.... and.. I found nothing. So I scratched that thread and started up this one, so let's get into it.
We've seen the Marines stress about enforcing their justice. We have seen the Emperors talk about conquering the world. But in the end all of it is just bullshit... Let's take a look at some of this stuff:
Absolute Justice:
The Gorosei openly told Sakazuki that the Marines are just the outer face of the World Government, that's it. Marines really don't have much value for the World Government as far as ideals go, they're just there to be used by them when needed to carry out their dirty work and pretty much manage their seas. Then they're out here making deals with the 4 emperors and holding meetings with them... which goes against their so called "absolute justice" that is the main ideology of the Marines put into them by the World Government.
Conquering the world:
Kaido, Shiki, Big Mom, Xebec.. these dudes wanted/want to conquer the world. But who got even remotely close to challenging the Commander-in-Chief of the World Government.. let alone the Gorosei & Imu? None, they couldn't even sniff them let alone get close to challenging them. They either get dealt with by the Marines or just other pirates/criminals that roam around the seas.
You see while One Piece may have originally been a manga about Luffy taking down the 4 emperors for Oda, all of that changed during chapter 100, The Legend Begins, with the introduction of this man:
At this point we had no clue what he was really talking about. In fact we had no clue about his relation to Luffy or what he was about or anything at all. But that panel of "The World is waiting for our answer" set the story on a path that was higher than mere pirate battles. But that higher path the story was going to go towards was cemented with chapter 233, The World's Greatest Power, with the introduction of the Gorosei as "Supreme leaders of the World Government". The dudes who are designed after famous influential politicians/rulers of the real world.
At this point the Yonko/Admirals and such were still "the shit" you know, like what they did mattered and shit and seemed important. But then there were few panels here and there with the Gorosei that started to put that in question..Chapter 793, that pretty much showcases the Marines are nothing but a tool to the Gorosei, with their Honor not mattering at all to them or their face:
But it's like ok, the Yonko are still doing their thing you know, big dogs of the world running their own shit independent of the Gorosei.. but i'll be damned... you got Orochi making deals with the CP0 them knowing that Orochi is related to Kaido, you had them approving Doflamingo's trade and being fine with it even before that, but the ultimate "i'll be damned" moment happened in chapter 907, before Orochi-CP0 and after Doflamingo-underworld trade:
Luffy's so called "idol", and arguably the top emperor in terms of sheer prowess is having tea time discussion with the Gorosei. And they ain't even treating this dude like a threat at all. They're like "Ok kid, what do you want?? Why'd you come all the way here?? We only made this time cause you requested it so don't waste time.".. and this dude is like "Thank you for that" / "I appreciate that." But before I could've actually digested this in and connected it all BAM.. chapter 908:
Gorosei are telling the King of the World, "Just tell us the Name you want erased from history and we'll make it happen.".. yea just tell us the name of the scrub you want eliminated and we got you.
The Admirals, Yonko, Warlords, they all exist because the Gorosei & Imu are letting them exist. That is it. And why do they let them exist? Because it's them playing with the world and keeping everyone busy with each other so they can simply run the world without any big nuisance pestering them. But there is one pest that is pestering them right now that they haven't been able to take out in the last decade, Luffy's own father.. and soon it'll be luffy himself along with dozens of others once people in the OP world wake up to the reality of things that they are nothing but mere pawns playing to the tune of powers much higher than them.
Politics is the name of the game. 6 people in the world of One Piece play everyone like mere pawns in a chess game. The balance of power, and etc only exists because it's what those 6 people feel like having. Hence, Marines, Yonko, Warlords.. it's all bullshit and doesn't really matter at all. They'll only matter once these people are gotten rid of.

Imagine being the elected president of your country trying to convince your people that you're protecting them in exchange for the "Heavenly Tribute", it's easier to accomplish that by having "bad, violent and scary" emperors and pirates that threat/kill civilians. Just look at how the world was crying tears of joy after Whitebeard's death, no wonder the deceiving World Government survived the strokes of time for 800 years. It's ironic how they abandoned Sphinx island because they couldn't pay the tribute for the World Nobles just for a Yonko to raise and support its residents with his earnings from piracy.
They don't want to eradicate the Yonko because of the fake "protection" they offer to nations from the "evil pirates" AND because these Yonko utterly destroy the Super Rookies who try to break the world balance like Luffy, Kid, Law and Teach. The Yonko are basically gigantic stones that prevent anyone from reaching Laugh Tale. There's a reason why The World Government erased everything related to Xebec and nothing about Whitebeard or Roger.
Regarding their strength, One Piece world is filled with many high tier characters with just Haki and skill, it could be just that Imu sama is hiding the most overpowered devil fruits in history somewhere inside that underground champer in Pangaea Castle and no one else except Chadmu and the Five Elders know about the location. They feed these fruits to new recruited admirals/CP agents but they are cautious not to feed the Marine so much power to prevent a coup.
