One Piece: Are The Marine Admirals Yonko Level?

gamerant.com:

The Marines are a major power in the One Piece world, known to be the military face of the World Government. As naval soldiers, it is their duty to protect the innocent and the weak from the vicious pirates, even more so in the Great Pirate Era ushered in by the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger. The Marines are quite a capable force and together with the SSG (formerly the Shichibukai) and the Yonko, make up the Three Great Powers of the One Piece world.

Out of all the Marines, the Admirals are known to be the very strongest. Each generation of the Navy seems to have maintained the tradition of having 3 Admirals and together, they're known to be the strongest military asset of the World Government. The Admirals possess tremendous power, as seen on various occasions in the story, however, whether they can compete against the Yonko is a different question altogether.

The three Admirals make up the biggest weapon that the World Government have at their disposal. On countless occasions, fans have seen how strong they truly are. During the Paramount War, the Admirals showed their might to the fans by taking on the mighty Whitebeard Pirates. While Aokiji clashed against Jozu, Kizaru took on Marco, and Akainu, the strongest of the three, took on Whitebeard himself. All the Admirals have overpowered Devil Fruits at their disposal and this is true for both before and after the timeskip. Before the timeskip, fans could see all three Admirals with overpowered Logia Devil Fruits, with Aokiji wielding the Hie Hie no Mi or the Ice Logia, Kizaru wielding the Pika Pika no Mi or the light Logia, and Akainu wielding the Magu Magu no Mi or the lava Logia.
