The same people saying nothing happened to Oven are the ones who are bringing up Katakuri vs. Ichiji. Hilarious. What's even funnier is that Ichiji had to self-sacrifice in the middle of enemy territory, while Oven was protected by an army right after he got attacked.
I did. Where was he at the end? Him and Snack got knocked the fuck out. Smoothie, Daifuku and one-armed Pero were the only ones left standing.
People forget Snack+Oven were supposed to take care of Germa, while Smoothie+Daifuku were supposed to chase Straw Hats. When Straw Hats left, the Fishman pirates fought them.

Arlong believed he could have ruled East Blue. The reality is he was hopelessly deluded and if it wasn't for corrupt Marines he'd have been crushed by someone, probably Smoker.
He was strong at the time, but he was a literal big fish in a small pond. It's also hard to compare a character Oda hyped in the first 100 chapters of the series, when the characters were the weakest they've been, when we barely knew anything of the world, to ones we are seeing now, where (wild cards like Imu, Rocks and SSG aside) we have a pretty good idea what the balance of power really meant. If you take Rocks and SSG, for example, who have been introduced in the ~150 odd chapters since Germa, you see a real difference in how they are hyped. Again, Rocks and SSG get known quantities. Something strong enough to replace the Warlords. Roger's greatest foe, who fought him and Garp and had three of the future Yonko on his crew. Germa had nothing compared to that.
