This is legit genuine question I would love if anyone would take time and answer me for this cause i usually don't roam around forums and don't know the perspection of some characters but i recently compared Marco to prime Rayleigh and someone thought they were no where near ?
So here's my understanding on Marco :
- He has been the 2nd mate of a guy that could'v been PK (and that's a fact) so pretty much same position as Rayleigh
- He's probably one of the most experienced people we know of in the story so far he has been since 15 years old (maybe even more) on WB's ship and has seen countless battles and some we know of are the "Summit War" against the marine and the "Payback War" against Blackbear ... (and Haki blooms in battle so experience is huge)
- If everyone believes that Roger vs Whitebeard was a true rivalry which everyone admits to it then how tf ppl treat Marco so far below Rayleigh ? how could the WBP in general matchup to the Roger pirates especially knowing 26 years ago they fought in 3 day and 3 night battle , what is it 1 man show Whitebeard vs Roger Pirates ?
- After the Payback war , the goresei legit said that if Marco won the war he could'v been yonko
And finally my understanding of most characters power level there's an age hierarchy where from 20-40 you're devlepping and could get stronger 40-60 you're at your peak and 60+ you're past your prime and starting to get weaker ... And Marco rn is at 45 so pretty much at his absolute peak
For me Marco rn is exactly Rayleigh at his peak to make a parallel and for me he's a clear cut above the 1st mates of yonko crews (King/Katakuri/Beckman... etc) but a bit weaker than the yonkos and the admirals kinda like Mihawk
So again this is a genuine question maybe i missed something in the story or there's a better explanation for this in the forums but why Marco doesn't get enough credit ?
