I think I remember reading/hearing somewhere that Aokiji was called the strongest marine. Am I losing it, misheard, or what?
If it has been said, could you kindly direct me to the actual page it says it?
Thanks in advance! :happy:

He's just the strongest of the three Admirals.
That's all.
I thought that was a mistranslation actually.
@Mr.:

That what I thought too?

Stephens translation:
Gorousei: …him again?
Well, it's probably only reconnaissance.
Honestly, what does he consider his own position to be...?
He can't just act on the spot like that.
The Marine Headquarters' Strongest,
"Admiral" Aokiji...
Sooooo, they do say he's the strongest Marine?
Or do they mean he's just the strongest in the actual Headquarters?
Whichever one it is, thanks for the info! ^_^
Well I wouldn't say it's a stretch to call him the strongest marine either way. Generally you'd think their strongest fighters would be from Headquarters, or at least that's the way I thought. Then again there could be people like Blackbeard who are really powerful but for whatever reason chose to stay in the shadows.
Even if Aokiji is the strongest admiral,
there's still sengoku to consider
@Twilight:

Since the HQ is the elite it should mean that Kuzan is stronger then Marines from other divisions too.
However I think Sengoku is excluded from this, since it appears that his seat is at Maryjoa, which makes sense for the absolute top of the Marine. This to me strikes at the only superior position to the elite headquarters itself so having Sengoku being the strongest would still work with what we know.
Sengoku is definetly stronger than him, considering this:
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/319/04/
I'm pretty sure when Oda says "strongest Marine" he means "strongest Marine" and would have designated "strongest of the Three Admirals" or "strongest Marine other than Sengoku" otherwise.
"highest ranked fighters in the marine"
The only one superior to them is Sengoku"
Doesn't that suggest Sengoku is not a fighter? or atleast not the strongest fighter anymore, and only has a higher military rank then them.

we at least know that sengoku was a pretty decent fighter way back
whitebeard would not have mention him otherwise eh?!
especially with the associaton of a "rough sea"
Hey I just noticed, Shanks being an apprentice on roger's ship would mean he has been on raftel before.http://apforums.net/images/blaze/buttons/edit.gif
I'm not really sure of the timeline Shanks joined the crew. It could be that GDR already left Raftel when Shanks joined, or he could have been with the crew from the very beginning(can anyone confirm this?). All I know is he left the crew after GDR's execution.
Back on topic though, I believe Aokiji is currently the strongest marine, and Sengoku ain't no pushover after Whitebeard's remarks. Having said that, I don't think Whitebeard mentioned Aokiji's name at all, does that imply he is much younger or that pre DF he was a nobody?
Aokiji has been around a while, I'd say he's at least 40.
40 in the current timeline would make him a youngster during GDR and WB's battles.

I don't think he is a youngster i was thinking about this stuff. Gol D. was killed 22 years ago Robin is 27 years old ? She was a kid at the age of 8 when he hometown was destroyed and Jagaur D Saul was taken down by Ao kiji. So if its a 19 year ago he was a vice admiral and then it's safe to assume that he was in the marines 3 years prior back in the old days that WB refered to. The people that seem to know about those days are Shanks Garp WB the three Admirals Sengoku and i think theres prob 1-2 more vice admirals who was around back then.

I think your getting confused. when they consider them the strongest in the marines and their is still some one on a higher level than them. He might not fight anymore but he doesn't have to and he is just chillin in Maryjoe waiting for the war to start. I don't think these guys would be listing to people that are weaker than them. WB v Sengoku will be awesome =)
As for Sengoku not being inclued as part of the Navy HQ, isn't Navy HQ in Mariejoa or at least near it?
Regardless of that, his title was "Marine Headquarters Chief Admiral." So he's included as part of the HQ.

During Robin's flashback which was shortly after Roger's execution, Saul commented on him being incredibly strong. THough I suppose there's still a possiblity of him gaining strength only due to his devil fruit (unlikely) and not long before that (also unlikely that he'd attain the position of a Vice Admiral in a short amount of time.) Chances are, considering how he's "lazy", he never did anything to make him stand out save for his strength among those that know him.
People-it was the editorial crap.Like when they wrote "What of Brooke's feelings-and the next island will be?" in the MIDLE of the Kuma fight.

It's in a bubble one of the Gorosei is clearly saying it.
And I believe his profile in the Yellow databook also says that.
The "Marine's strongest-admiral aokiji" is the editorial text on the beackground.
Lobo could you link to what page you are refering to?

Yes you are double-correct!
Give up people Aokiji is the strongest!!
Nope he's not.
Gorlom-page where we see Aokiji riding the bike in shadows,either last or penultimate page (OP manga doesnt have it,only One manga does)
what page of which chapter?
Nope he's not.

[Grand Line, Marine Headquarters]
Officers: …Vice Admiral!! He... he's not here!!
I'm not settling for that!!
Where the hell did he go?!
His bicycle is gone, so... probably to sea.
Tell the Gorousei at once!!!Gorousei: ...him again?
Well, it's probably only reconnaissance.
Honestly, what does he consider his own position to be...?
He can't just act on the spot like that.
The Marine Headquarters' Strongest,
"Admiral" Aokiji...
It also states that Aokiji is the Strongest in One Piece Yellow.
uhm-the least sentence IS the editorial text.
Prove it! Cause the damn data book says the SAME damn thang!
Im not saying he's not-all im saying is when ive gon over the scans,ive found two diferent pages then yours-and those either speak of the (marine) HQ (which is NOT the same as the WG HQ) ,or somethin' like that.
My question about Ao Kiji's strength is if he is actually stronger than Garp. Rankwise, he is higher. Experience-wise, Garp is better. Garp doesn't talk to him like a superior, rather he treats him like a kid and is buddy-buddy with Sengoku. It is hard to imagine a being stronger than a logia fruit user, however, especially for a person with no supernatural abilities.
LOBO! PAGE AND CHAPTER! NOW!
I want to know what this "editorial text" you are talking about looks like.
I don't care what other people say I want you to specifically point out where it is.
http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/303/19/
It wouldn't make sense for the continuation of a character's dialogue to be editorial text. Same for something that is in a dialogue bubble.
What would constitute as that would be "The chase is on the Blue Seas!!!"
