@Smudger:
He was only focusing on trying to kill Whitebeard, and not save lives. He killed marines shortly after this conversation too.
The whole Squardo thing was Sengoku's plan. And that was suppose to demotivate the pirates make cooperation harder and that would have made the war easier.
Plus instead of just attacking Whitebeard himself, he hedged all of his bets on one person;that essentially led to Whitebeard destroying the frozen passage and proving, if not inspiring the new world pirates to fight, and fight harder. Squard may have attacked him, but Whitebeard used that to his advantage in the end
Didn't plan of that happening and expected the opposite.
.Akainu: Hmmm well look here…there's a few guys in the middle of a hellish war that are scared. Better melt them to death in the most painful and horrific way possible.
Een if Akainu did kill him he was a soldier running away from battle. A battle to decide the future of this world even. When you're engage on the army you are suppose to be ready to fight in a life or death battle. He wasn't and decided to leave his companions behind.
They received a harsher sentence than Crocodile who was trying to overthrow and destroy a country, in the hopes of reviving an ancient weapon, that could potentially destroy the world!
Crocodile was sentence to life prison on the worst level of Imperel Down. It isn't suppose to better than death.
His intent was to let an innocent child live, instead of being burnt to death via the bustercall.I'm sure he had some really evil intentions with that one.
He did it because Saul wanted her to live and Akainu by blowing that ship had shaken up his resolve not because he taught she was an innocent child. She was as much as a scholar than anyone. Nothing to do with justice but a way to feel less bad about what happened that day.
Plus you are only encapsulating the few negative points, while overlooking all of the good she has done since, and is yet to do in the series.
We saw Aokiji 3 times pre-timeskip. One time he let a crew he deemed dangereous escaped. Second time when he lend the buster call snail to Sandam and lastly at the war.
Not one other high ranking marine had an issue with this act; otherwise Coby would have been jailed shortly after.
Sengoku at other stuff to do like leaving his job or the level six prisoners and he is the apprentice of Garp the hero. And with Akainu blowing the ship I think it is pretty obvious that the higher-ups hardly remember to punish their guy for screwing up if the job was done anyways.
Also the war was simply a byproduct of trying to prevent Ace from being executed. When he died the battle lost most of its meaning, and ended up with the marines almost turning into the terrible image/people that they were fighting to destroy in the first place. Hundreds, or maybe even thousands of marines would have died.
Doesn't change thee fact that he was a mutineer. Coby had no right to go up against his superiors and decide when the war should be or should not be fight.
Can you really group people like Jinbei, Boa and Mihawk in with Moria, Dofla and Croc. The moral obligation would be different.They might use them, but both havent a different view.
Mihawk massacred a whole crew because he was bored.
Jimbei was an accomplice of a criminal and surely killed some human before Tiger tamed him.
We don't know what the Amazon do usually. Or the incident that gave her her first bounty.
For example: Sengoku knew that some were honarable pirates, while others were monsters, and would know who to send, depending on what situation required them.
What gave you such idea about Sengku.
Akainu however, lumps them all in the same category of 'a pirates a pirate', and so would be reckless with his choice.
That sentence is actually from Smoker. And shichibukai don't work for marines. They work for the word government.
Actually they were ordered by Spandine, and Spandam (his son). One was accidentally, while the other was partially tied to the Gorosei and the conversation they had with Clover.
But Aokiji was the one to give Spandam the golden snail.
You also overlooked the fact that Aokiji was disgusted at seeing the bustercall at Ohara.
HE was disgusted by Akainu blowing up the ship.
