I still think they are not fighters... I don't see any reasons for them to be insanely strong like most of people think. They are not from the marines, where you can reasonable use the equation "top grade = top fighters". They are politics, they ruled the world because they are the gorosei, they don't have to be the strongest since there is the Marine for that. And just because one have a sword doesn't make him s super strong warrior... of course everything is possible, they can even be fighters, but just normal fighters. I still think you are overestimating them. Beside I wouldn't like the fact that every important character has to be strong, to be important.
