Incorrect if they were YC LVL guys then we would have got some hype back in Thriller Bark like they said for Ryuma being special.Lol silver axe and captain john were YC levels likely and Shiki didn't die and they listened to their captain so they probably only left when roger and garp targeted him. It wasn't likely just the people in the picture
Wrong he was never shown that strong.Shiki was a force to be reckoned with and was a rival to roger. He was defeated by both Garp and Sengoku after destroying half of mf - so he was no joke.
Edd war he brought a fleet to clash with Roger. He meet an accident he run away.
MF he only killed few fodders. After Sengoku n Garp showed he got captured not dead. Again shows he wasn't someone who could fight till death.
After his escape from Impel Down he went to WB saying it's his era now.
Comes strong world(for which his character was designed) he lost to Luffy.
Now let's compare it with the Yonkos. BM goes to Wano without even her commanders n wrecked havoc in countryside. Shanks stopped kaido n entered MF without any allies. But Shiki needed a fleet just to team up with Roger lol. This itself shows the vast difference between Shiki and current Yonkos.
He was never going to be someone who's as strong as current Yonkos. If he was he would have taken Shanks seat n reigned with other Rocks pirates.
Kizaru would be 20yrs at that time n Akainu would be 17yrs. But let's not forget Koby was 16 when he was in MF standing infront of Luffy n other big shots.And guess what akainu and others would be about 15-17 at the time they likely did not participate. In no way would the marines be able to handle roger and rocks at the same time that is for sure barring secret weapons like pluton level machines or something.
You are hyping Shiki way too much. The simple fact that Oda didn't draw him with BM, WB, Kaido n Rocks when they facing Roger n Garp tells enough that a apprentice like Kaido was more strong or held a higher position than Shiki had back in Rocks era.Roger and Rocks are at worst equivalent to Garp and kong. Sengoku is at best equivalent to wb but more likely he's equal to shiki. And the rest of the pirates(shiki, young big mom, rayleigh, gabban) are miles above the rest of the marines.
Even without roger pirates rocks is the strongest on the island and then it's wb then garp and then kong if we scale with hype, so no they won't likely win that battle. keep in mind Sengoku like Garp wasn't at his peak and was likely about equivalent to shiki. But the point of the post was to ask what if roger pirates teamed up rocks.
fujitora was drafted recently so idk why he is being brought up and was 16 not everyone is Luffy and even Luffy at 16 was relatively weak so I doubt the rookies would make any difference(also kuzan was like 10-11).
Also, zephyr is not that strong and he is a non-cannon character. So Shiki, wb, rocks are better than the marine top 3, young bm, john, kaido, wang xi, and others > any vice-admiral or rookie. If roger pirates joined it's an absolute stomp.
You believe current Admirals won't start young like Luffy but you are forgetting that they are also Main Character in this series. Just take the example of Dofflamingo he also started young. Also it's shown multiple times now in the series that Marines/Admirals train next gen of Admirals i.e Zephyr training Kizaru, Garp training Aokiji / Koby from young period.
You also raised a issue that Fuji is a new recruit. See unlike Pirates, Marines don't pick random guys n put them in Marines program. Just take the example of Drake or Corazon they were all drafted in Marines from early age. Fuji himself said that he saw way too much violence in his lifetime which is the reason he removed his eyes. So he must have seen violence in multiple areas inflicted by Marines as well as other external force. Only possible if he was travelling with Marines.
Now I won't compare any of the pirates or marines who were present at Gods valley to be at their prime as seen with Garp who required training to beat Chinjao. Same guy who lost to G3 Luffy.
I also can't say how this whole incident unfolded. However I m pretty sure that there were multiple Vice admirals present there behind the wall of Marines cheering for Garp. I would also point you that God Valley vanished after this incident which means Marines called for Buster Call again signify that there were backup from Marines. But these are all assumptions until more info is given by Oda.
To be very honest I just can't see how Roger and Garp reached their prime 38yrs ago when Roger didnt even got his full crew. It's highly unlikely that Roger reached his prime but Garp kept struggling even tho it was mentioned that they both killed each other whenever they clashed. Same goes for current Yonkos n other pirates(if they were present).
