User blog comment:AYET/The worth of the Shichibukai to the Marines/@comment-5962458-20130529072238

I don't know how stronger the marines are getting really..So far we've seen 2 VA's getting owned pretty easily by a sichibukai and another one getting one shotted by a single roockie.And there aren't too many people stronger than VA's in the navy you know..Besides, however strong they might get i don't see why they would discard their alliance with people like for example THE strongest swordsman in the world!

About the poll i'm not gonna vote and here's the reason:

As we know Akainu apart from being a sickly powerful individual and DF user, he also is a highly experienced and capable fighter on terms of strategy being able to fight under any circumstances against any opponent and in any kind of distance from him.Saying this, i'm gonna have to wait and see if Blackbeard has dveloped the use of haki during the timeskip because he wasn't a confirmed user before as we know.If he hasn't it is imposible to pull a victory against Akainu only using kurouzu so the outcome would be an easy KO for my main man the fleet admiral.
