I think when one looks at a characters size. They should consider things like the camera angle and other charters relative heights.

For example the reason Gecko Moria looked so gigantic in his first appearance was because of both the camera angle as well as the people who woke him up were a bunch of midgets.

Heh all this talk about height reminds why I want to see the BB Pirates get some Girl members. I find the concept of a attractive and not too manly looking woman being 8-10 feet tall extremely hilarious.

Whitebeard's crew is the strongest currently. They were rivals to Gold Roger's crew and they are apparently the closest to obtaining One Piece. And they do have the "Strongest Man In The World" as their captain.

Potentially I'd say the Blackbeard Pirates and Strawhat Pirates are pretty high up there with the BB Pirates being the stronger of the two (at least currently).

@boiga:

However, the reason BB IS more powerful than other logia is because Blackbeard is a badass, not because his fruit would turn any two bit bandit into the Pirate King.

Meh I'd think Aokiji would pwn Blackbeard from what we seen of them both.

Noro Noro Fruit (Foxy's Fruit) deserves a mention due to how cheap it is.

Even if the WG did know that Moria was kidnapping innocents along with Pirates I'd doubt they'd make a big deal about it unless Moria was actively plotting against the WG.

And isn't wanting the whole entire world to be a obedient society evil?

Lets review the BB Pirates shall we?

Teach-Killed his own Nakama. Ransacked Drum to the point that people were extremely distrustful of the SH's to the point that one of them shot Vivi without provocation (and I doubt Teach cared about what Wapol was doing to his people since I don't see why Teach couldn't have just killed Wapol and not sacked Drum). Rampaged through Barano.

Lafitte:Was banned from a entire Ocean.

Burgess:Walked around Jaya and beat and maybe even killed random people.

Van Auger:Shoots at birds simply to see if they would suffer or not.

Doc Q.:Hands Explosive apples to random civilians which pretty much causes to have a gruesome death.

Yeah sounds pretty evil to me.

Spandam was weaker than even a average Marine and yet he was the Chief of Cipher Pol.

Point is that sometimes strength isn't the only thing that determines rank.

I think Rokushiki is a fairly effective system for fighters.

Soru can be used for dodging.Geppou for travel.Tekkai for defense.

Besides it's too early to be saying that we've seen all of the potential abilities Rokushiki techniques. It's fairly possible there are combinations and possibly techniques we've haven't seen before.

The World Government (well at least it's leadership) is evil. However I will say that having WG control is MUCH better than Pirate dominated anarchy.

Them not wanting the Ancient Weapons to come back because they would probably ruin things is understandable. However I think Ohara might have been a bit excessive.

On the other hand from what we can see pretty much all of the members of the WG's leadership are either completely amoral (Sengoku,CP9) or complete bastards (Spandam,Akainu).

And Kefky and Boiga have a few points. Yeah the WG probably have caused their fair share of havoc but then again how do we know Shanks, Whitestache, Mihawk, Dragon and various others haven't?

Really One Piece has a different perception of Good and Evil then we do. Lucky Roux killed a man in cold blood and we wouldn't call him evil would we?

Finally as evil as the WG is, it is arguably a necessary evil in the OP world. If it were to be destroyed then there would probably be nothing but turmoil and anarchy.

Aokiji, Akainu and probably Kuzaru are titles.

Go read the Ohara chapters.

Aokiji's (the ice guy) real name is Kuzan (although I'm not sure if that's his first name or a surname).

Akainu's (the guy with the hood) real name is Suzuki.

Kuzaru's real name is unknown.

The WG has been around for at least 500 years and probably the Marines have been around for a while as well. Therefore I imagine that there have been several 3 Admirals. Hence Garp could be the old Akainu.
