[Discussion] If they fought Akagami pirates during the war

[Fujitora]

None of the current top tiers are as strong as prime WB/Roger. WB, sick and old, was good deal weaker than during his prime was the world's strongest man.

You don't know that because we have yet to see, Shanks' strength. Don't even go there...

lol dw everyone has their love for Shanks but Shanks is not on Roger's level. I am sure of it.

I think, Shanks' skills may have been weakened because of his missing arm though.

Oda confirmed they didn't.

 

[Hori]

Oda confirmed they didn't.

Yeah that was already confirmed, But still I think he started using that sword for the same reason, I mean Shanks can go toe on toe with Hawk eyes with one arm... he sure is tough

Mihawk left the battle field saying he won't fight Shanks.....handicap marines, meaning team Akagami wins.

The only important people who died in WB crew was, well WB and Ace.
WB didn't even lose to the admirals, it was blackbeard that killed him....So if we minus Blackbeard out of the war, there mission would of been a half success.

The mission was to return with Ace, and it would of been fine if not for Ace's stupid actions

Shanks alone would rape the 3 admirals Mid Diff

rofl hell no. WB couldn't even do it and he was consider the strongest at the time even when he was ill. Three admirals at the same time is overkill. Stop over-hyping Shanks. Do it once we see him fight.

A blood coughing, injury infested Whitebeard slapped Akainu around like a ragdoll, what makes people think Shanks can't beat two admirals at the same time???

 

[Red Swag]

why is evryone saying admirals vs shanks? Garp Garp Garp? anyone? hello?

plus wb or shanks cant handle two admirals at the same time. it's too much. stop overrating the mothrfukr

 

[takiyacrowz]

actually the number game will change sanks will one shot the weak willed from all the marine ford
most of the WB pirates were alive and angry
marine will be screwed . it will end up in a draw...... all dead ..................... bad strategy.

Because this isn't bleach or hxh or any other manga where a top tier can fight two top tier at the same time. Shanks would get his ass kicked within seconds if he fought two top tiers.

Because Garp is above the admirals, normally garp falls under fleet admiral if we go by levels

 

[ToshiZO]

lol? Marco can take on Kizaru. He is admiral level and think about it... do you honestly think that WB is going to place someone as first division commander and can't take on an admiral? He can destroy Kizaru and maybe Aokiji.

As for Shanks. Shanks can take on Akainu/Sengoku. His crew alone are all strong as ****.

lol...didnt see any destroying in the war. Heck his cheapshot against Akainu hardly tickled him.

I've done this analysis before:

Think about the entire power of the world in OP adding up to 100%. Since it's a fact that the Shichibukai, Marines, and Yonko are considered equally balanced, let's assign a value of 33% to each of these forces.

Assuming the Yonko are all roughly equal in power, let's say each Yonko holds 33/4 = 8.25% of all the power in OP.

Now, imagine this. It only took ONE Yonko Crew (WB+Allies = 8.25%; I consider WB's allies to be part of his power) to absolutely devastate Marineford. The Shichibukai and Marines had to counter with their FULL strength (All of the Shichibukai + Marines = 66% of the OP world's power)

Now, keep in mind both sides were not even fighting at full strength. Whitebeard was miserably sick and his crew were often scattered and uncoordinated. Jimbei and BB weren't present for the Shichibukai; plus Garp and Sengoku weren't going all out. And the Luffy factor on top of all this.

Even after all these considerations I'd still put the power distribution at 8% vs. ~60%. And that's still pretty overwhelming odds.

And look what happened. Marines got devastated, all three admirals were badly injured (maybe not Kizaru), and the WB Pirates managed to destroy Marineford so badly that Akainu had to move to G-5.

Considering Shank's entrance, I personally believe his 8.25% would have been the tipping factor for the Pirates. Had he fought that day it would have most likely ended the Marines' and Shichibukai's presence and power in the series.

Hell, Mihawk didn't want to fight him. What does that tell you of the strength of the Red Haired Crew? Or even the other Yonko?

I said he can just cause of the fact that hes first commander of the WHITEBEARD PIRATES. Obv. WB would pick someone who is admiral + tier for position as first commander. Plus Marco's fruit is pretty OP.

Ill admit considering he's first division commander second to only WB he should be able to hang with the Admirals...but destroy? Na thats definitely an exaggeration Marco had trouble even stopping Akainu with the help of the other commanders and Shichibukai, it took Shanks to stop Akainu.

Yeah, the Red haired + Whitebeard pirates would probably win. Mihawk left when Shanks and his crew appeared because he only agreed to fight against WB and his allies.
