This was proven during his confrontation with the Five Elders, where he disparages them for permitting the Celestial Dragons' CP0 to falsify Donquixote Doflamingo 's resignation from the Warlords of the Sea, even questioning whether the Five Elders are Celestial Dragons' puppets.
Surprisingly, Sakazuki can demonstrate sense of caution in regards to battling pirates or causing disturbances in global affairs. Also, despite Borsalino's request to travel to Wano Country to deal with the possible alliance of the Beasts Pirates and Big Mom Pirates , he declines it citing that Wano's military strength is an unknown factor and they are not within their jurisdiction. As the Marine fleet admiral, Sakazuki has command over the entire organization. Marines respect him and used to call him "Admiral Sakazuki" most of the time, as opposed to his epithet.
Nevertheless, his ruthless adherence to "Absolute Justice" has made his colleagues fear and despise him, especially Aokiji , who called him a fool for taking things too far. Upon Sakazuki's rise to Fleet Admiral , Kizaru became a confidant to share his counsel, often offering helpful advice and being someone for him to share his personal frustrations over the growing threat of piracy, especially the Straw Hats.
Kizaru has shown to be the closest thing Sakazuki has to a friend among the Marines. While it is unknown what their relationship was like before, Aokiji has had nothing but hatred for Akainu ever since his horrendous action during the Ohara Incident , calling him a fool for overdoing things.
When it was announced that Akainu would succeed Sengoku as fleet admiral, Aokiji strongly opposed this and dueled him for the position. Their fierce battle ended after ten days with Sakazuki achieving victory. Refusing to serve under his former comrade, Kuzan decided to leave the Marines and resign from the position of admiral. Akainu also did not show any respect to Monkey D.
Garp , despite the old vice admiral being a "hero" who was eligible for the position of admiral, due to him being from the previous generation, but mostly for sharing his lineage with criminals like Dragon and Luffy. It is unclear whether this has caused a further rift to develop between the two men or caused any problems within the Marines that prefer Garp or Akainu's version of Justice.
Akainu did not seem to have any problems with Sengoku when he was his subordinate before the timeskip. This was seen when he grudgingly complied with Sengoku's order to end all hostilities of the Marineford War and permitting the Whitebeard Pirates to leave. However, after succeeding Sengoku in his position as fleet admiral, he was annoyed by Sengoku's amusement at Issho using a loophole to enter Mary Geoise and did not hesitate to insult him.
That being said, he still respectfully addressed him when the Marines were discussing the bounties of the most notorious pirates.
Sakazuki's relationship with Admiral Fujitora is also strained. Although they seemed to be on amicable terms previously, as he initially put an immense amount of trust in him since he believed that Issho can stop Law and Luffy, and Issho could address Sakazuki with the nickname Saka-san without it bothering him.
This friendly status changed when Issho took matters into his own hands during the incident in Dressrosa, by putting his faith in pirates to defeat Doflamingo as well as bowing apologetically to King Riku for the World Government allowing Doflamingo to torment their kingdom for so long. Furious over Issho humiliating the Marines, and by extension Sakazuki himself, Sakazuki ordered Issho to kill Law and Luffy and reiterated that he wouldn't allow any Marine bases to take him in until he accomplished that goal, which Issho was content with, as his opinion of the Marines and their sense of justice was disparaging.
Despite their quarrel, Sakazuki kept Issho in the loop of recent events such as the dissolution of the Seven Warlords system and the alliance between Kaidou and Big Mom. Issho even gave assurance that the new SSG will balance things out. Sakazuki is shown to have absolute loyalty to the World Government and is an extreme follower of their doctrine of Absolute Justice. When Sengoku stepped down as Fleet Admiral, many in the upper echelons nominated him to be Sengoku's replacement.
Even though he is loyal to the World Government, he was outraged when he was informed that the report given to Marine Headquarters about Doflamingo's resignation from the Seven Warlords of the Sea was fraudulent. He even personally argued with the Five Elders concerning the matter.
Sakazuki even insulted, provoked, and mocked them, stating that they had been "walked over by the Celestial Dragons' puppets ", testing his limits and showing that he does not agree with everything the Five Elders do. After Sakazuki complained to the elders about how Doflamingo's actions would make him look as Fleet Admiral, they retorted that Sakazuki's reputation does not matter to them.
They also provoked him by bringing up his old colleague 's recent acts. However, Sakazuki did not fall for their taunts as he told them that Kuzan left the Marines when he became fleet admiral and it has nothing to do with them.
Despite his loyalty to the World Government, Sakazuki believes that World Nobles are not to interfere with the Marines' activities and vice-versa.
Because of this, he was outraged when he learned that the report given to Marine Headquarters about Doflamingo's resignation from the Warlords of the Sea had been falsified by CP0. This caused a heated argument between him and the Five Elders , during which he accused them of having being overstepped by CP0, referring to the organization as "Celestial Dragons' puppets".
Sakazuki seems to despise CP0 and, during an argument with the Five Elders, he even refers to them as the "Celestial Dragons' puppets". In One Piece: Gold he has an argument with Rob Lucci about his requests for the Marines to support Gild Tesoro , provocatively asking him for how long CP0 will be "Tesoro's lapdogs", to which Lucci replies that supporting Tesoro is necessary for CP0's mission and that, therefore, Akainu must "shut up" and comply with the order.
This audacious answer angers Sakazuki, who tells Lucci to mind his words. Even though the Warlords of the Sea were on the World Government's side, Sakazuki saw them as nothing more than pirates and believed they could not be trusted. Despite this, Sakazuki saw them as a necessary evil and was unhappy that the Warlord system was abolished, but Admiral Fujitora believes the reason why Sakazuki thinks this way is because Sakazuki has never personally suffered from the Warlords the same way others have.
As Akainu boldly insulted Whitebeard , he earned the wrath of Portgas D. Ace , who viewed the captain as a father figure. This made Ace lose his chance to retreat in an attempt to strike down Akainu in revenge, only to fail and ultimately lose his life at the hands of the then admiral.
Akainu feigned sympathy towards Squard to get him to betray Whitebeard, [18] then brutally injured Whitebeard and killed Ace, which resulted in the rest of the Whitebeard Pirates directing their anger toward him, and the remaining commanders attempting to fight against him, even though they might have been killed.
Whitebeard himself brutally injured Akainu an example of this would be when Akainu was placed at the epicenter of a shock wave, courtesy of the Gura Gura no Mi out of revenge for Ace's demise. Akainu, however, views all pirates as criminals that are not allowed to exist, and the Whitebeard Pirates are no exception. During the war at Marineford, Akainu tricked Squard into stabbing Whitebeard.
When Whitebeard was unleashing his Gura Gura no Mi powers at the plaza, Akainu engaged him in combat, trying to prevent him from causing any more significant damage to Marineford. After he provoked and killed the second division commander Ace, Whitebeard brutally injured Akainu. During the ensuing conflict, Akainu burned off a portion of Whitebeard's head. Due to Luffy being the son of the Revolutionary Dragon , Akainu views him as the most dangerous threat to the world, along with Ace, and possesses an immensely dangerous obsession with ending Luffy's life.
To this end, the Admiral ignored all surrounding threats , and focused solely on taking Luffy's life. Even though he failed to take Luffy's life during the war, he managed to give Luffy an X-shaped scar that covers most of his chest.
Furthermore, Akainu did the only thing that no one else could do in the entire series: completely break Luffy's spirit. Akainu always refers to Luffy as "Dragon's son", viewing him as a global-scale threat solely based on heritage, and that Luffy must be eliminated at all costs. After Luffy defeated Doflamingo, Sakazuki was shocked and angry over the incident and during a heated argument with Fujitora, Sakazuki demanded him to arrest Luffy.
Akainu considers Jinbe a traitor after his resignation from the Warlords of the Sea and for cooperating with Luffy. Although he was more interested in taking Luffy's life, he showed absolutely no mercy to Jinbe on the battlefield and attempted to kill him numerous times while Jinbe was protecting Luffy. Jinbe is aware of how dangerous Akainu is, and wasted no time in warning the Straw Hats about how ruthless the Marines have become under his command.
After learning of Jewelry Bonney 's whereabouts, Akainu said that the World Government had been worried due to her disappearance, and Bonney replied that she hates the World Government and the Marines. After learning that Law formed an alliance with Luffy, Sakazuki was deeply concerned with Law's actions and sent Fujitora to Dressrosa to capture both him and Luffy. After his heated argument with Fujitora, Sakazuki ordered him to arrest Luffy and Law. Shanks intervened on Sakazuki's attempt to kill Koby, while Sakazuki was shocked to see him at Marineford.
Aware of Shanks' threat, Sakazuki made no attempt to attack him though the latter earned Akainu's fury because his arrival had allowed Luffy to escape his grasp. Two years ago, when Blackbeard arrived at Marineford and stole Whitebeard's Devil Fruit power, Akainu heard his speech but ignored him to pursue and attempt to kill Luffy which ended in failure.
After the war at Marineford, Akainu was sent to deal with Blackbeard , but Blackbeard and his crew got away, due to knowing his threat. As fleet admiral , Sakazuki has total operational command of the Marines , with at present a mere six direct superiors to answer to: the World Government 's Five Elders and Commander-in-Chief. Combat-wise, Sakazuki as an admiral now fleet admiral is among the world's strongest figures, having been thought with his fellow admirals to constitute the World Government's "Greatest Military Force" i.
Sakazuki's background, specifically as a black-hearted extremist, affords him a particularly fearsome repute even by admiral standards, as seen chiefly following the Summit War when Blackbeard , upon learning of Sakazuki's presence aboard a Marine ship meant for negotiations, immediately fled off the island he dwelt on with his crew , noting their unreadiness to face the admiral despite Blackbeard, at that point, having come to wield two of the strongest Devil Fruit powers in existence and bolstered his crew with five of Impel Down 's most dangerous and powerful ex-prisoners.
During the Summit War, Sakazuki's fighting prowess was well-established against Whitebeard , an Emperor and the world's strongest man, whom the admiral matched up to in a head-to-head confrontation. Further in the war, Sakazuki proved himself firmly superior to Ace one of Whitebeard's strongest division commanders despite his age , effortlessly overpowering the young pirate in a clash when, beforehand, Ace had managed to fend off Kuzan more or less soundly though in fairness, Sakazuki enjoyed the inherent superiority of his own ability over Ace's , unlike the other admiral.
It took another Emperor, Shanks , to appear and personally stop Sakazuki for him to desist from his pursuit. Sakazuki would later find his equal in then-fellow admiral Kuzan, their one-on-one duel on Punk Hazard seeing them evenly matched and meeting another blow for blow through most of a ten-day duration; while both men sustained grievous injuries, Sakazuki was the one to ultimately prevail and emerge as the victor, his longtime comrade left entirely at his mercy.
Attesting to Sakazuki's perceived leadership competencies and military acumen, he had many dignitaries of the government strongly push for him to succeed Sengoku as fleet admiral, over the latter's personal nomination of Kuzan.
While known, feared, and disdained by some for his hardline, over-the-top methods, Sakazuki's prowess as a leader is undeniable. Indeed, as noted by Jinbe , the Marine HQ under him has supposedly grown far stronger, more determined than ever before despite the resignations of Kuzan, Sengoku, and Garp , thus bearing out Sakazuki's capabilities.
Beside combat, Sakazuki is a shrewd manipulator, using whatever knowledge he holds of enemies to try to deceive them into doing what conforms with his goals.
He feigned sympathy to Squard , exploiting his hatred of the late Pirate King to influence him into betraying his loyalty to Whitebeard, [18] and later purposefully insulted Whitebeard's honor to goad Ace into attacking him, successfully doing so as to prevent Ace from escaping, [19] and killing him shortly after by aiming for his younger brother and letting Ace take the blow in the former's stead.
Befitting an admiral, Sakazuki's physical prowess is immense. His raw strength was enough for him to go up against and clash evenly with Whitebeard in close quarters—the "Strongest Man in the World" who, in his old age, could still overpower a giant 's strength easily.
Perhaps most impressive, however, are Sakazuki's vast durability and endurance, best illustrated by how not even two successive quake punches from Whitebeard hitting him point-blank one his neck and another his midsection, and both coming imbued with Haki , further increasing damage could keep him down, the second blow strong enough to split the island of Marineford in two as an after-effect in retrospect, a relatively weaker version of the same quake attack had sufficed to incapacitate a vice admiral giant ; [41] Sakazuki retained not only consciousness thereafter but had more than enough strength left to keep on fighting without at any point evincing the slightest exhaustion or impediment by injury with only some bleeding visible on his face.
Mobility-wise, the admiral has shown himself quite fast, propelling himself forward at great speeds. He can easily gain ground on others that are noticeably fast and in flight from him, as seen with Jinbe whom the admiral caught up with swiftly despite the former's head start resulting from the powerful people trying to keep Sakazuki at bay.
Otherwise, the admiral has shown acute enough hearing to be able to perceive underwater movements from afar. Sakazuki ate the Magu Magu no Mi, a Logia -type Devil Fruit that allows him to create, control, and transform his body into magma. Sakazuki's primary method of combat is transforming his arms into magma to launch burning punches or clawed thrusts that can easily penetrate human bodies, [56] [43] [57] [46] [41] [47] [48] drastically enlarge his arms to throw forward giant magma fists meant to reach enemies farther away, [54] [39] [58] [47] and even launch multiple magma fists as a barrage of meteor-like projectiles, devastating the battlefield.
Beside the invulnerability of Sakazuki's magma body against all but Haki attacks, its heat has enemies heavily discouraged from coming near and striking him physically, lest they be burned. Even for a Logia, this ability has great potential; when used excessively by Sakazuki for ten days, it warped the very climate of half an island , permanently rendering it a blazing inferno that embroils even the surrounding sea.
Sakazuki was seen wielding a dagger as a child [62] and a red-hilted katana during his youth as a Marine. During the Summit War, Sakazuki was seen using advanced-grade Busoshoku Haki to block and disperse a long-distance quake shockwave sent out by Whitebeard, by generating, with his fellow admirals, an emitted shield combination of their three Haki. Sakazuki possesses the ability to use Kenbunshoku Haki. Sakazuki was born in North Blue. The following events are Non-Canon and therefore not considered part of the Canon story.
At the age of 23, Sakazuki joined the Marines alongside a 26 years old Borsalino , and came under the tutelage of instructor Zephyr. The two were already considered "monsters". He was known as Vice Admiral Sakazuki before his promotion, and was present at the Ohara incident, being one of the five vice admirals leading the Buster Call bombardment. He ordered the destruction of an evacuation ship of civilians and soldiers, claiming it needed to be destroyed in case even a single scholar managed to sneak on board.
At some point after the incident, Sakazuki was promoted to admiral and given the code name, "Akainu". Ace 's execution. Following the gathering at Marineford , Akainu was seen sitting beneath the execution platform of Portgas D. Ace with his fellow Marine admirals.
Akainu stepped into the battle when Jozu hurled a massive iceberg, displaying abilities to control volcanic rock by launching a fist made of magma to vaporize the iceberg and sending small burning rocks flying all over the place, destroying one of Whitebeard 's ships. He was later seen confronting a Marine officer who was fleeing from the battle not wanting to die out of concern for his family. Akainu attacked, and brutally executed the Marine officer for this "cowardice", much to the horror of Koby and Helmeppo who were watching having nearly run into the admiral themselves while doing the same thing.
Akainu then received a report on the Den Den Mushi that the preparations for Sengoku 's plan were set. During the battle, following Sengoku's orders, Akainu talked to Captain Squard , making him believe that Whitebeard had betrayed his allies, trading their lives for Ace's.
He demonstrated his words by making Squard notice that the Pacifistas attacked everyone in the bay except Whitebeard's pirates, this being also part of Sengoku's plan. He told Squard he does not agree with the plan of sparing Ace's and Whitebeard's life, and offered him the chance to save himself and his own crew if he killed Whitebeard. Because of his deep hatred for Gol D. As a Marine, it was Fujitora's duty to catch Luffy, but he let him get away.
Well, the citizens of Dressrosa were protecting him and Fujitora couldn't really do anything about it. We all know Akainu's personality though, he wasn't going to listen to any excuses.
Akainu is among the Navy's top fighters and at the time of his introduction, he was the strongest among the three Admirals. No one can doubt Akainu's power, but during the Summit War, he was too preoccupied with the Whitebeard Pirates. After Whitebeard was killed, it was clear that the Navy had the upper hand. The Whitebeard Pirates retreated as they wanted to respect the last wish of their captain. However, Akainu was still chasing them.
He continued to bully them, but he was ignoring the fact that Sengoku and co. Blackbeard and co. Akainu is a stern follower of 'Absolute Justice,' and he is very unlikely to spare the life of any pirate.
In real life, Akainu would be nothing short of a hero, but in One Piece he's a big villain. After the death of Whitebeard, the Whitebeard Pirates were running away as it was the final wish of their captain. However, Akainu had other plans. He chased after the pirates and kept on attacking them. There were a lot of casualties and Akainu was keen to add more to the list. Akainu seemed unbeatable at times and currently, he is one of the most powerful characters in the series, but when he was up against Whitebeard he was getting washed.
When Whitebeard was enraged, he completely destroyed Akainu and immediately made him regret killing Ace.
Akainu tried to put up a fight, but it was all in vain. Whitebeard's power was just too much. After Akainu realized that he couldn't beat Whitebeard, he just hid underground until Whitebeard was killed. There is nothing worse for a father than to be betrayed by his own son.
Squard was one of the allies of the Whitebeard Pirates. He deeply respected Whitebeard, but Akainu manipulated him at Marineford. Akainu used his skills to manipulate Squard into believing that Whitebeard only cared about Ace. Oda already clarified in an SBS in one of the volumes. The marineford arc is really hard to grasp considering that the majority of the people there were probably using haki but Oda hadn't revealed it to us so its hard to rank everyone there.
It simple,, Akainu magma can burned through the fire, in fact magma really hotter than fire. In reality tho, fire is a gas and if hot enough it's a plasma. When you mix fire with magma nothing will happen. Explore Wikis Community Central.
