There's no Akainu vs Luffy
Just like there's no Shanks vs Luffy or Mihawk vs Zoro
These fights aren't happening

But saying Akainu vs Luffy can't fit thematically nor narratively isn't headcanon?
Give it a rest already, it's embarrassing bruh.
Where is this fight happening ?
Why should Luffy even fight Akainu?
For what progression ? What does this fight bring?
Luffy is already Yonko . The only things bigger than this is PK like Roger and being the saviour like Joyboy
Beating an admiral brings nothing
He needs someone who makes him be PK or save the world
Akainu isn't a Yonko aiming for one piece nor is he the evil ruler of the world

Luffy is set to fights these characters and it should be common sense now
IMU - Top of WG and has history with Joyboy
Akainu - Top of Navy and has history with Luffy.
BB - Top of Pirates and parallels Luffy to the core.. I would even say their ancestor parallels each other because Oda likes to build connection with the past.
Above 3 shouldn't be a debate anymore.
Holy knights - one will definitely fight Luffy but it will most likely be like Katakuri vs Luffy which happened in WCI.
Really don't think Shammy vs Luffy is happening for an all out fight
Order is everyone for guessing because nothing is certain as of now.
Akainu isn't set to fight Akainu
Hes not leading WG
Oda is building up Imu and his main squad:
That's why you got Gorosei over Kizaru at Egghead, Knights at Elbaf
Navy aren't a major threat to beat anymore
It serves nothing beating Navy. It doesn't save the world
Imu and Teach are leaders of their own organisations
Unlike Akainu who's under Kong, under Gorosei and under Imu
