What manga have some people been reading?
-The gorosei basically appoint the Yonkou in the first place.
.
Yeah what manga you have been reading?
- Gorosei didn't appoint shit, if it was up to them, they would want to replace Luffy with someone else because they don't want more attention for ''Sun God'', but its not up to them so Luffy become an Emperor despite the Sun God.
- At least for 1 year, Yonko were only 3: Kaido-BigMom-Shanks, until BB defeated WB Pirates remnants. Only after that BB become an Emperor. Its not up to them. They were literally discussing who will be the new Emperor after WB's death, they don't favor anyone over anyone.
- Shanks become an Emperor only 6 years ago, before that we know WB-BigMom-Kaido were the Emperors, so again, as far as we know there were only 3 Emperors until Shanks become one 6 years ago.
- Buggy become Yonko because Mihawk and Crocodile agreed on a lie that Buggy is stronger than them and the leader of the alliance. Gorosei didn't do shit.
Basically, only strongest pirates becomes an Emperor, that's how it works. They are not going to choose someone just to fill up the 4th seat.
-Marines and Cipher Pol are not allowed to touch the Yonkou.
They can attack them if they give the order, or in different circumstances.
The only reason they don't want to attack them, because the Emperors are too strong,
and they don't want to start a war that they could lose:
That's the same thing as Garp telling
do not attack Rayleigh, because they can't handle WB Pirates + Rayleigh at the same time. Its not because they want Emperors to exist, its because they can't fight an Emperor by dividing their forces, they need a planning and a strategy for fighting an Emperor.
Different circumstances:
- Ryokugyu didn't care, he still wanted to attack Emperor Luffy.
- SHawk attacked Emperor BB (meaning that the PX cyborgs don't have any written codes like not attacking Emperors).
- CP0 attacked BB Pirates, after BB Pirates attacked Revolutionary base.
If the Gorosei and Government really wanted Emperors to exist, you think Ryokugyu could show up with capturing Emperor Luffy, and could get a ''
you did good'' from the Red Dog and the Gorosei?
Or that did they forget to put a code on PX Seraphims that they shouldn't attack the Emperors?
You Ladmiral fanboys reading Two Piece.
-Gorosei literally have meetings with Shanks, and CP has deals with Kaidou through Orochi.
.
Shanks was in disguise for a reason, and we didn't even see his crew with him. That doesn't change the fact Shanks is still an enemy with 4 billion bounty on his head, and it doesn't even say ''only alive'', that happened with Lanji.
Shanks had a meeting with WB as well, and they were still enemies. Roger and Marine Garp teamed up to defeat Xebec, alliances can happen.
We had Warlord Pirates, Government made business with them only because of countering Emperor Pirates. That was the whole point of Warlords. Once they get SSG, they get rid of Warlords, because all they want is power to counter the Emperors.
Besides, you can't just nuke islands left and right...the WG is trying to be inconspicuous. Not trying to announce to the world that they have this ability and that they are responsible for mudering countless people.
Off the cuff chaos is what they want to avoid, strength in numbers is likely what they fear. They still want a world to rule at the end of the day, not to just destroy everything. Divide and conquer makes a lot more sense.
They know it wouldn't work, and the pirates would attack Marijoa once they learn their secret weapon that could be use against them anytime, their weapon would be useless since they can't destroy their own island.
They would if they think it works. They wanted to get Pluton so the government could end the ''pirate era'' and the Gorosei approved it.
