You can disagree if you want but I think Enel could beat Aokiji,
Without Haki , Enel can't even lift a candle to an Admiral. His Mantra is pretty much Admiral tier. But an Admirals Busoshoku Haki would one shot Enel if a strike fully connects. Hie Hie no Mi is also on the same level as the Goro Goro no Mi. Out of all the pre TS Admirals Kuzan is the worst match as Lightning only enhances Ice due to the electrical current being poorly insulated and conducted.
tie with Kizaru and maybe lose to Akainu.

Kizaru is also (like Kuzan) in posession of a DF of equal caliber to the Goro Goro no mi. Lightning is basically slowed down,super heated light. Basically it's a downgrade.
Akainu's biggest claim to fame is punching Ace who was sacrificing himself for Luffy, we'll never really know if Akainu could have even beat Ace if Ace wasn't blocking that punch for Luffy. Had Enel been introduced later his power would have been greater but his DF ability still is extremely effective in combat, more so than croc's or Ace's or Aokiji and Akainu for that matter, it's basically the same principle as Kizaru, you could even picture Kizaru to be what Enel would have been had he been intro'd at MF.
Since Sakazuki sent Ace flying with one punch. Sakazuki clearly stomps Ace. Ace is comparable to Enel in strength, as Enel has the greater fruit but the far weaker fighting skill. All logias are effective in combat in their own right. So your statement about that is irrelevant.
Saying he couldn't compete with the new world is like saying Zabuza can't compete with Shippuden even though he could beat 1/4 of the Akatsuki(Kakuzu,Hidan,Konan,Sasori,Zetsu and Deidara. Plus he could go toe-to-toe with Kisame possibly even defeating him.) Enel could have beat Kuma, Hody, Monet etc. You're trying to compare two different time frames where power scaling is vastly different.
Hang on.... Zabuza couldn't beat anyone in the Akatsuki. If he's lucky he could beat Zetsu, Black Zetsu is of similar strength and if both Black and White halves are together ; Zetsu is probably equal to Kakashi. Zetsu is one of the most underrated characters in Naruto. He can copy Zabuzas powers and then add his own Mokuton techniques to boot. Kakuzu,Hidan,Deidara and Sasori would stomp Zabuza. So yes your comparison is kind of correct in a sense that Big Shot NW characters would stomp Enel. Kisame was stated to be the strongest member of the 7 swordsmen. The fact you contradict the Naruto manga made you lose all plausibility. Enel could beat Monet and Hody , but Kuma would most certainly beat the living sh*t out of Enel.
