Bro you could've atleast warned me before you delete my entire reply so I could've edited it out.🤦

Anyway, if Shanks had his entire Grandfleet things could've been different.

You need at least 3 Emperor crews joining to be a decent threat to the Marines. Now, I believe 1 Yonko = 1 Admiral but I know some people do not believe that, even then, they should agree that 2 Admirals > 1 Emperor. The Marines have at least 8 Admiral level characters (not counting Kuzan) and as we saw in Marineford, 1 Admiral is more than enough to take on all Commanders of a Yonko crew. Marines have:

• Sakazuki

• Aramaki

• Borsalino

• Sengoku

• Garp

• Issho

• Tokikake

• Gion

So if you make all 3 Emperors fight 2 Admiral level characters, you will still have 2 left and all other Vice Admirals. A fight like this will be a disaster for both sides and could go either way mainly due to the size of the crews and the amount of allies they have.

So:

• 4 Emperor crews VS Marines - Pirates win

• 3 Emperor crews VS Marines - could go either way

• 2 Emperor crews VS Marines - Marines win mid diff

• 1 Emperor crew VS Marines - Marines win low diff

It that goes against what has already happened. The marines freaked out when Shanks and WB met. Same with BM and Kaido. They are afraid of 2 Yonko allying, pretty sure it was stated in the past

Admiral candidate doesn't mean you're indefinitely Admiral level. It just means they've potential. I don't believe Gion and Tokikake are at same level as Kizaru, Fuji and GB. That's why they lost the position to GB and Fuji.

And? Just because they're concerned doesn't mean they'll lose. 2 yonkos allying = 50% of the WG's strength, that's pretty big.

Because of the amount of Manpower it would take to stop such alliance. If 2 ally, what's stopping a third from joining in?

Didn't Garp say we can't take on 2 legends at the same time, when he was talking about Reyleigh and WB? That alone should be an indication.

You can't pick and choose character statements. There's plenty of statement from each side, Kizaru even offered to go "handle" Big Mom, so we either take all statements as facts or we do not.

I am going by what we have seen, For example:

• Sakazuki took on a dozen Yonko Commanders and a warlord at the same time, that's a fact, so we can assume just one Admiral can take all Yonko Commanders, if not, the weakest Admirals can at least take on the top three Commanders.

• Aramaki took down most Beast pirates and their top two Commanders no diff, another fact. There are no sea stones to be seen and from the statements it can be assumed that the pirates attacked first. whether they were recovering, or whatever, it does not change the statement that an Admiral cannot lose to mere Commanders, again, a statement by character, but this one is backed up by actions and evidence unlike most
