Ranks are pretty good indication. What strikes me is that Garp despite his enormous strength and innfluence and status is only Vice Admiral, of which a Giant was easily knocked out by one punch of WB.

Considering he has no where else to go though, this isn't in the least surprising.

Buggy is also pretty underrated for a guy who's been Roger's apprentice - and someone who yielded the power of Marinfords top prisoners, well connected to one of the Yonkou, is a DF user and a capable manipulator - everything points out to Buggy being one really, really cool dude later on.

The only REALLY interesting case is Ace's position as Second Division commander of shirohige - don't forget his little clash with Smoker. Just how strong is this guy? Teach easily defeated him pre-ts pre-WB fruit, not to mention stood up to WB.

BB confronted WB fearlessly (though old, sick and wounded) flet from Akainu which got blocked by Shanks which BB is now on the level of. Akainu is even higher position now though. It's pretty twisted.
