Break Week Why do Luffy's crewmates fear admirals more than yonko?

That made no sense. In both cases he is fighting for Luffy. Facing Akainu in Jimbei's mind means certain death and merely buying a little time at best. Facing Big Mom is a challenge. Portrayal is worlds apart here, clear as day.
Did you miss the part where they were all booking it from her? Youre not comparing the correct panels.

Again, making no sense. We're talking about a situation where Jimbei is thinking of facing the two.

Facing Big Mom = Welcomes her attempt to kill him
Facing Akainu = Guaranteed death, his life is only worth a few seconds before he gets killed.

You're not gonna get a 1:1, in both scenarios he would be fighting for Luffy. Akainu is just a whole different menace, and he's rightfully portrayed as such. Big Mom is cute in comparison in Jimbei's mind.

Facing Big Mom, he joined Luffys crew to become PK and they are raiding another Emperors base to take him down.

Facing Akainu, in an escape situation with downed Luffy.

Simply incomparable.

People are really desperate lol. I can literally point out marines afraid of emperors when there are multiple admirals around. Or the gorosei being scared of Shanks and WB meeting. And marines in general just being afraid of hearing about high bounties.

Regardless. These lines are there to callback to Saobody. It's pretty clear Luffy is going to avenge his failures from that arc.

And how does this counter anything I wrote? Find me the page where Jimbei thinks facing Big Mom is certain death in a few seconds time. I have the panel of him potentially facing her and thinking she can try and attempt to kill him. You're just creating random variables, when we're speaking on pretty clear portrayal against the same character's mindset facing two different top tiers.

When he prefers not to stick around and books it from her with literally the entire crew and capones and Caesar.
And? He booked it from Magellan too, does this mean Magellan = Big Mom.

How does him running from Big Mom contradict or counter a single thing I posted, both things are true. He runs from Big Mom, but he also doesn't think facing her is certain death in little time like with Akainu.

No it means he recognizes a life or death situation when he sees one, Magellan was one, BM was one, and so was Akainu.

But if they have to fight he will do and say the same thing to Akainu.

BM was unfortunately dealing with the MCs in an arc they were meant to prove themselves in and beat Emperors, Akainu had the luxury of being introduced in an arc where the MC was barely relevant and his story was done when Jimbei was escaping with him. Lets see how Jimbe and co react when the plan is to take down marines and an admiral. Then you can compare.

I guess it's about the stakes involved.


If you go against a yonkou then it's against one pirate crew.. no other yonkou would jump in against you



But if you go against an admiral then whole fuckin navy is coming at you which includes 2 more admirals, fleet admiral. Also, they have more human resources to back them up.
Simple logic...//

besides, in WCI Luffy and crew prioritized escaping Bigmom while in Onigaishima they actively went against Kaido...simple math...now they want to leave egghead while saving vegapunk is a priority

Unfortunately this doesn't change anything I said. Both things can be and are true.

Both are enemies not worth fighting, however one character is portrayed like the boogeyman which leads to certain swift death, while the other is just a challenging foe. And this is all through the lense of the same calm and controlled individual.

VS

Linlin is a joke villain

While Akainu is a real intimidating Villain

Idk how the Admiral fans have the audacity to use things like these. The simple comparisons are all you need. Doffys reaction to Fuji and Aokoji vs Doffys reaction to Kaido. GB against Kaido and Shanks. Deathbed WB vs Akainu, Shanks vs Akainu, Shanks vs Kizaru.

So many situations where the Yonkos have more portrayal
Blud doffy is a celestial dragon /warlord / knows marijoa secret
He knows admirals cant touch him coz of that
