The elephant that Rayleigh dropped with Haoshoku haki was strong enough to take Luffy's jet pistol without flinching! Pre-timeskip, I fully believe Rayleigh could have dropped 100 Supernovas before breakfast. He was also fast enough to battle Kizaru (or at least react in time to block with Kenbunshoku to help) and his defence would probably be good enough to take anything they could throw at him. (Gear Third???) Anyway, you may be right, but I think he'd do a lot more than 10 at least.
