People are saying the Marines were unlucky to end the Shichibukai system now and they are so wrong. What could the current shichibukai do to help the Marines? Weevil and Mihawk may be able to put up a fight but the reality is that the balance has always been between the Marines and the Yonko, the Shichibukai being gone will change nothing, they could have taken the shichibukai out of the Marineford arc and the result would have been the same, I don't remember a time when they've been useful. Garp, Sengoku, Akainu, Kizaru, Fujitora, Ryokukyu and CP-0 are just some of the Powerhouses the Government has, they have nothing to be worried about.
