Just like the other said, I don’t think WB’s attack was strongest and hardest at the time of the battle, because WB’s age, sickness and he was gravely injured. IMPO, WB fought more with his heart than his head ( I thought WB was more reckless), and Akainu used his intelligence along with his power in the battle. To answer to your question “should Akainu have died”, no because Oda wanted Akainu alive, he is the perfect enemy for Luffy. Plus, Ace’s death by Akainu provided much needed character development for Luffy, for him to see what he is up against and get ready for the NW!

OP Rage Reborn was good:) What is next?
