Is worst gen going to be stronger than middle gen? If yes, why did middle gen turn out weak?

[Warmmedown]

I guess the strongest of the middle gen are Shanks, Dragon, Blackbeard, Marco, Hancock, Doflamingo, Crocodile, Ivankov, Jinbei and then some WG like Akainu, Kizaru, Aokiji, Fujitora, Sakamaki (?) and Magellan.

Seems like Luffy will surpass Shanks. Zoro will surpass Mihawk. Sanji surpassed Marco. Sabo will surpass Shiliew. Overall is this generation going to be stronger? Or is it just the top top few who sre stronger?

Well the worstgen is the supernova, which includes guys like Apoo and Hawkins. Some of them caved against the pressure of the New World. It's really just the tippy top.
