Luffy meets both of these requirrments.

The emperors being stronger than the admirals is really just speculation at this moment. I do think that Whitebeard is stronger than the admirals just because of the title of world's strongest man he possesses, but I am not sure if Shanks and the other two are stronger than the admirals. The admirals are presumably the top fighters in the marines force, so they must be able to match up against the emperors and the warlords in terms of fighting strength. After the admirals, there is still the fleet admiral Sengoku to deal with. We are going to have to see everyone's fighting capabilities before making any assessments.
