I've heard alot of people say this. "He can beat any of the admirals but not a Yonko".

As far as i'm concerned. The strongest Yonko (Shanks)>The strongest admiral (Akainu i know he isn't an admiral anymore but still). But that doesn't mean that all the Yonko are superior to all the admirals. The weakest Yonko is most likely weaker than Akainu. So why do you think people say Yonko>Admiral? Personally, i think it's just a way to hype them up.

WB is an exception btw.

Discuss.

In my opinion: Yonkou > Admirals. This just in general though, there are exceptions. It's just that from what we've seen up till now Yonkou > Admirals.

The Admirals are pretty legit.

The new admiral can rain meteors without trying.

The old Admirals were hax.

Well, we only have known the abilities of two Yonko's.

Shanks and Whitebeard's. But since the admirals change occasionally, you can't always compare a Yonko and an admiral.

For example; Whitebeard was Yonko for a long time, and Sengoku was an admiral roughly at the same time. I believe they fought on par, but now that the admirals changed into weaker ones, Whitebeard easily stomps anyone of them.

And remember that in One Piece it's either elemental inferiority or better Haki usage.

But I firmly believe that if it was 3 strongest Yonko VS admirals, Yonko would win.

But it could be that in individual match admirals beat some Yonko.

This i agree with. Except that the admirals changed into weaker ones. Fujitora is hax.

No one knows that answer to that cause we never seen any fight BUT Kizaru one of the weakest admirals was stopped by Beckman. So I guess that's were people started to assume that Yonko's are higher than admirals. IMO It's just a way for OP fans to be more specific of the power scale in OP. Even if there is a gap between the Yonko's and admirals it's not that high.

Lel. WB is an exception. Dude wasn't even human. He rivaled Roger who can beat any of the current Yonko and admiral. Not to mention WB is dead. He's PK level and >all the Yonko.

Big Mom would probably the only one Akainu would be able to take out and even then she would bring him to the brink of death.Yonkou just seem more mystical

True =D. You shouldn't compare Whitebeard with the other Yonkou though.

Beckman didnt stop Kizaru.

Kizaru proceeded to attack luffy.

Beckman is first mate, which he is very close in strength to captain anyways.

To avoid unnecessary deaths of so many marines.They were pushed to the limit by WB.Taking on 2 Yonkou at once seems rather stupid.

The strongest current Admiral imo, who is Borsalino is weaker than the weakest Yonko, imo Big Mom.
Even if we use Sakazuki I still think Bog Mom is stronger.

Roger COULD before his death. Whitebeard was nowhere near full strength at Marineford. How does he not count? He was one of the Yonkou? If Kaidou thought he could kill him and Shanks stopped an entire war from mere presence alone I'm certain that all but one Yonkou (BB) are superior to MF Whitebeard.

Akainu might be the only exception. Though still we can't compare him to the likes of WB/Shanks/Kaido. Maybe he could fight on par with Big Mom. But still we have seen their limits and the gap between a yonko and an admiral is rather big. The new Admiral has a lot of potential and better abilities(possibly Ryokugyu too), IMO he'll be able to deal with a yonko better than the old ones.

If Kaidou thought he could kill him and Shanks stopped an entire war from mere presence alone I'm certain that all but one Yonkou (BB) are superior to MF Whitebeard.

I think that even an old WB was of same level as the other yonkos Shanks?Kaido. Basically what I want to say is that the standards of strength have fallen from what it was in Roger's time, i.e; the top dogs from the old times are on the same level as the strongest of the New Era.

Honestly I considered Kizaru to be the strongest. Give them all the same blood lusted personality, and his DF becomes haaxed.



OT: Because balance in the New World compromises between the Yonko, Schichibukai, and the Marines. Meaning the Yonko make up 1/4th of 1/3 of the world's power (stated earlier though I'd say Marines, Yonko, and Revolutionaries). As such on their own they make up about 1/12 of the world's power having assumed they were equal.

The ENTIRETY of the Marines which has FAR more people make up the same fraction... Meaning based souly on math, the Admirals can't possibly make up 1/12 of the Marine's power... There are just too many people.
