I don't get what your complaining about Dan. You talk about progression and about the bar being set pretty high but then you say you're unimpressed with everything that has happened. Lets look at it like this okay. Rob was the strongest zoan we've seen thus far right, your words, yet he lost to Luffy, and you say you disregard Drake because of how easily he lost to Kuma's clone but it took Luffy's entire crew working together to take one out and they couldn't even touch the real one and somewhere in there you mentioned how cool Lucci was and if thats what this is about then it isn't even worth discussing. Oh and as Dbz mentioned we haven't seen anything from Drake yet.

I also don't see your problem with Kizaru, its not that the rookies are weak its that he is that strong. I dunno but it seems to me that you think Luffy and his crew would fare better against Kizaru than the others did and that just isn't true. Luffy and his crew got embarrassed by Aokiji and Kizaru appears to be stronger than Aokiji is. Yes these guys were some of the strongest rookies but they are only rookies. No name rookies who don't mean anything yet, it just wouldn't be right if an admiral much less one with a logia fruit as strong as Kizaru's lost to a bunch of rookies. I mean what chance do the marines have against WB if an admiral from HQ can't handle some rookies.
