Which is Odas way of telling us that even Mihawk himself wonders if he’s capable of taking on the likes of Whitebeard. Mihawks appearance on the battlefield was enough for the whole entirety of marineford to look up and wonder what that man called Hawk Eyes was up to.Īnd like he said himself, all he wanted to know was the difference between him and ‘’that man’’. Him clashing with Shanks back in the days is also on of the reasons why he’s this high up on the list, because not a lot of people can clash with an emperor on equal terms and live to tell the story. He also sliced whole mountain sized Ice walls with no issues, and his name alone was enough for strong dudes like Vista to challenge him in the middle of the war. His slashes were devastating enough for Jozu to step in and defend Whitebeard, and he also took down relatively strong fighters like Daz Bones for example with ease during the war.
This man is the strongest swordsman alive, and marineford partly showed us why. Im telling yall, do NOT sleep on Kizaru, this man is an absolute monster ! He did got sent flying yeah, but I think he was trolling partially there, since he literally took no damage from the attack at all, and his way of speaking on what happened sounded very troll like in my opinion. Keep in mind, he fought very strong people like, Marco and Whitebeard. Kizaru literally took ZERO damage during this whole war ! I also don’t see how Aokiji’s ice could outspeed his Pika Pika no mi. Yes he wanst considered when the marines were looking for a new Fleet Admiral, but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t best one of his colleagues in a fight, it simply means he just doesn’t has the leader capabilities, but he could still be stronger then the both of them. Okay so hear me out, the reason I put Kizaru above Aokiji in this list is because we have absolutely NO CLUE how high he would rank up against his former colleagues. Him defeating the Straw Hats back on Long ring Long land ( which was basically a no diff fight ), is also one of the things that shows how ridiculously strong he is ! He also stopped multiple devastating attacks, like Whitebeards Tsunami-like earthquake at the start of the battle. If it wasn’t for his very laid back attitude, I’m not even sure if the Whitebeard pirates would’ve only lost Ace and Whitebeard, because he was definitely capable of killing some of their members ( Jozu for example ). We’ve seen Aokiji clash with the likes of Whitebeard and come out fine. Well first of all, he’s an admiral what did you expect ?Īside from being an Admiral, his skills alone are enough to bring him this high up in this list. I actually was doubting where I should put him on the list, because he had very impressive feats during marineford, but I just think the people above him on this list are capable of defeating him ( it wont be easy AT ALL tho ). You could even argue that he’s also one of the main reasons how Luffy got to Ace, since he had Luffys back the whole time. He’s also one of the main reasons why Luffy got away in the first place. Not only did he clash with every single one of the previous Admirals, he also managed to take a hit from the Hero of the marines, and he stood up right afterwards ! He definitely deserves a spot on this list for being the 2 nd in command of the Whitebeard pirates alone. On top of it, I don’t have a feeling Doflamingo was trying in this war at all, since all he did most of the arc was monologue and have fun. He was also capable of stopping Jozu in his movements, AND cut off Oars jr’s leg with relative ease. I base this on his performance in Dressrosa, and although i know we’re not talking about Dressrosa arc characters, I don’t think there’s that much of a difference in marineford war Doflamingo, and Dressrosa Doflamingo. Well for starters, im one of the people that believes that Doflamingo is either close to 1 st commander level or he IS 1 st commander level.
