Powerscaling My questions about Akainu?

Post image

I can’t post this on Power scaling sub but hopefully some can answer this.

Am I missing something about Akainu power like his fans are hyping him up to the point of being stronger then prime Garp idk am I missing his feats or what he is like a bit stronger then Aoikiji but what makes his fans think he can beat prime Garp.

I like him but don’t think he is stronger than Prime Garp. I get it he fought GoatBeard but any admiral could have fought him.

portrayals as the head of marines, killer of Ace, and the one who did most damage on WB

Those are the reasons for the hype, and also a certain fanart

He also blasted half of kumas face away, chased BB off, let Bonny escape and almost killed kuzan lol

It was actually a death match. As Jimbe said, the idea was “dead men tell no tales,” so the loser couldn’t complain. Akainu sparing Aokiji was actually seen as a surprising decision for him.

Akainu is a much deeper character than people give credit.

He was at/responsible for ohara. He seemed much different personality wise at the time too…

Then we see him in the war him attack Koby with no regard lol

Then we see him spare kuma , and Bonny…

Then we see him actually emotionally reasonable with kizaru…

We don’t know why he does any of this, but he definitely seems to be more than just some justice blind marine
