Who will be next Admiral?

[xeteboi]

He is just stocked up inside the Impel Down. Maybe, he is the chief warden but in Admiral thing, you are set outside for hunting pirates and other missions.. Imagine yourself living on your house for decades and then you are obliged to become a secret agent to have a mission in a place where you dont know. see the logic?
you would be a dead meat man...

 

[Schabrak]

Do you honestly believe that they know every single island they visit beforhand? Likely not possible and rather idiotic, as it's easy to gain intel on anything being in such position. Though they may be on secret missions at times, the whole world[excluding Luffy] knows their faces, so hiding is not possible. Impel Down is a gigantic fortress, so that comparison to a house isn't that relevant, not like Shirahoshi who was kept in one room for ten years.

I actually don't think that Smoker or Magelan will become Admiral. If they won't get Haki they can't get even Vice Admiral position no matter what and I don't see Smoker getting it. I see him at best being Rear Admiral.
Also Smoker isn't any better than normal Captain. He only relies on his Logia DF and is practically nothing without it.

 

[Schabrak]

Most logia shown depend on their abilities, name me two who don't. Ace, admirals , Caribou, Enel do. That didn't stop them from using their powers like swords for slashing or piercing. Smoker was just compansating for haki with his sea-stone tipped Jitte. Do you asume that he's limited to the growth of his ability? Even Luffy is using only using his, in form of coc.

i agree with you. Magellan? not a quite fighter..

Magellan is only able to work for a few hours a day. This restriction throws him out of the position already. And yes, he is also missing expierience in fighting outside of Impel Down. Also, Magellan was not shown to be that tough. He was brought down to his knees by a severly weakened Luffy. I imagine anyone who is able to wear a cover over his body that protects him from the poison would be able to take him down. This is an insanly huge factor! People at Impel Down had nothing to take cover. Galdinho and Luffy had shown at the end of their breakout, how they can handle Magellans strongest attack.

Sorry, but Magellan just isn't the right one for the job imho...

Enel knows mantra and can fight pretty good even without his Logia abilities, even though he would be handicaped. Admirals actually know Haki and they are real tanks even without their Logia abilities. As Luffy said even before getting DF Ace was stronger than Luffy.
I don't actually try to downgrade Smoker, but people are overrating him thinking that in two years he will become someone like Vice Admiral or Admiral, cause he doesn't have Haki.

 

[Schabrak]

I did not intend to downgrade them either, just saying that all their basic attacks are based on their abilities, may it be like a projectile, sword slash or a bash. Non logia use real weapons or coc for that. In a previous post I pointed out the actual power and stamina for physical attacks/defense of those named characters like Akainu or Kizaru.

sorry for this question

1.did aokiji accepted his position as Fleet Admiral or Akainu becomes a Fleet Admiral if either of that question is answered no one can really tell who left the admiral position and if no one left why bother who is gonna be the next admiral (maybe an admiral level marine but not yet promoted)

2. if someone from those 3 admirals left the position to be promoted i think the Gorosei will act and place someone from the marines or even from the shichibukai we don't really know
* From the Shichibukai
- Doflamingo - too loyal at the Gorosei either for money or something
-well that is the only person i know to accept that offer
*From the Marines
-there is a lot of them on an admiral level so there is many options
a lot of VA's skill is just shown for a little time so maybe they are powerful in some aspects
---------------- You cannot judge a book by its cover alone you have to read it first

First of all, we don't even know if it was offered to Aokiji. We know exactly nothing...

2. if someone from those 3 admirals left the position to be promoted i think the Gorosei will act and place someone from the marines or even from the shichibukai we don't really know

WTF did you smoke? Doflamingo as admiral? A PIRATE? Hes not loyal to the Gorosei, hes not even loyal to that guy in the WG. He told that guy that he does not care for anything but his own good. As soon as he sees no benefit from their connection, he just leaves and abandon their relationship, because hes a pirate.

And another question: How many admiral level marines did you see that were just not promoted to the position of admiral? I am not saying there is non, but I havent seen any. Heck, not even the VA were shown to be as powerful as the admirals and I am god damn sure they are the closest to admiral level...

 

[Schabrak]

Rather unlikely, but the Marines could have left some senior back in the NW base for defense of Mary Joa or the city itself. This would be a fantastic way to introduce some unknown high ranking enemy without someone lvling up impossibly fast.

Yeah Doflamingo wouldn't be accepted by the marines, but it would certainly be a suprise for everyone.

 

[BBB Banana]

I also think some "unknown" character should be introduced as the new admiral or someone we would never be able to imagine. After all Oda is never predictable.

 

[zelllogan]

If it's a known character, It can only be smoker. Smoker is more interesting & seems to have more potential than all VC we have seen so far.
I would prefer a new character ... for example, some kind of fighting genius around the same age as luffy.

the reason i cant see an unknown character becoming the new admiral because all of the top fighters were at marineford when whitebeard attacked. if he/she was that strong why would sengoku leave them out of the fight?

if its not one of the VA that we saw during the war, it has to be magellan.

magellan is just as devastating as the other 3 admirals. yes he amost was killed but he was up agaisnt a slew of legendary prisoners, virtually by himself so i cut him some slack for that.

 

[zelllogan]

I forgot about Magellan. He is a possibility.
But a new character is possible. Everyone wasn't at marine ford. Marine still had to leave strong marines in the new world. Plus, some genius newbie could have been discovered during the two year timeskip. Some strong guys could have been sick during the war ... There are enough possibilities to explain that someone strong wasn't at marineford

 

[BBB Banana]

Magellan seems more like a shady character I don't think he fits the admiral position.

So Smoker basically got promoted 3 times in those 2 years? Dont get me wrong, Smoker was neither really that strong (the Luffy now would toast the Smoker from back then, because his only advantage was beeing a logia) and he does not care for ranks. That was all already said several times in this thread...

 

[Rosebullet Teacher]

I like Magellan, amazing fruit & when he fights he's just as ruthless as the admirals we know, plus with the same sense of duty. But he's not a marine & that's quite a few ranks to jump just because you feel it is your duty to recapture level 6ers. The VAs don't seem up to it Smoker neither. I say bring on the new candidates but no more logias the marines can't keep having all those

FuS

 

[Jorge D. Dragon]

I believe it might be either someone from the actual Vice Admirals or someone from special forces that we haven't seen yet to fill in the position of an Admiral.
Smoker is too far from the level of Vice Admiral and of course he is even more far from the level of an Admiral. Also he didn't have Haki before time-skip and he is in such age that you don't progress that much and don't gain such abilities as Haki in that age.
I also don't see Magellan as an Admiral for the same reason as Smoker. He doesn't have Haki. Even though he is damn strong. He isn't strong enough without Haki to become an Admiral.

 

[sh4dx]

About magelan, sure he is strong and all but he is nowhere near the strength of the admirals.He is like enel(a powerful df, better fighting skills than him etc..) but if we put him against someone like wb,shanks etc i don't think he would do even half as the admirals did in the war.
About the people who says that he will stay in ID and all don't forget that Sentomaru was also Vegapunk's bodyguard(though works for WG) and after the TS he became a marine.

anyway i don't know for sure if akainu or aokiji promoted to fleet admiral but i believe that either the admirals will be 2 or a new character will be introduced because i don't see any of the VA (maaybe Yamakaji just because Oda keep him always smiling and all this and who knows maybe he'll have a Logia power too, that's just me!!) strong enough to keep on head with the other 2.
