Well.. we were shown that the top tier level is the yonkou, white beard and shanks scared the hell out of Akainu.
Which means luffy still wouldn't be at the top even if he was at the level of the admirals.
Out of the pirates side, yes. But for the Marines, it was the Admirals to be top tier. I dont think they scared Akainu. Akainu effortlessly blocked Whitebeards attacks multiple times also injuring him.
Not saying hes stonger, but he was sure strong enough to hold his own until WB went into a complete rage and demolished him after Ace died (
)
My point was, Luffy shouldnt be anywhere near the top. Not even high. I see him as mid tier in the New World atm. Think of how boring the story would be if 2 years is all it took to get on the level of Kuzan -.-
for me, it just doesnt make sense
