There is no indication that Akainu actually enjoys punching pirates. He doesn't seem to be a sadist. He is violent, for sure, but the violence is always a means to an end.I don't think it's stress, but nerve damage seems like a stretch. I think it may be frustration with the fact that he gets to magma punch pirates less and less. Now he's forced to be the voice of moderation on things he would have been excited to do when he was an admiral. I imagine for instance, that Akainu would have found a coniving excuse to kick Doffy's ass himself and get around the shichibukai status (something squardo vs whitebeard style).
Fujitora could have found an excuse as well if he wanted to. Admirals have the authority to obliterate islands by just pressing a button and with no reasons given (Buster Call), and Fujitora did stripe Law from his title.
The reason why I think it is nerve damage is because Akainu's old face is completely gone. Somehow the very structure of his face looks different.
Does it have any impact on the story? No, thats why I posted it in the crackpot thread
