I understand thinking that Luffy will be the one to beat him, but why do people act like Sabo vs Akainu has no legs to stand on?
Thst is dumb to say Sabo vs Akainu make sense because Sabo have no revenge agansir Ace. See Jesus burgress and Sabo talking in manga panel.
We literally know Revolution agenda by monkey d dragon. To take Celestial dragons power away from world government, and bring new government idea on it.
Here is if scene.
Luffy and Sabo saw Akainu and IM standing here.
What would Sabo do to fight ?
Answer : IM or gorsei cause they are in charge of world government. This is what monkey d dragon want to do it.
Akainu is just fleet admiral of marine force.
Say Sabo vs Akainu has to make sense is like saying Sabo vs Blackbeard has to make sense.
What next oda is going to draw Akainu going have universe buster feats, are you going to argue Sabo will fight Akainu instead superman or Goku ?
Luffy have more beef with Akainu cause he literally got his dream destroyed because of this man called Akainu. He killed his ace in front of him and literally almost died from him if not for law saving him.
