Anakin Skywalker shows up early for the arrest and attempts to strike through the B team (not including Mace Windu) on the outer steps of the Jedi Temple.
The point of coining different Anakins was because he's not always in zone. In the scenario as OP described, Anakin would certainly not be in zone. He was conflicted after helping to kill Mace, he definitely isn't going to insta blitz them even if he could.
And unlike his battle with Obi-Wan his anger and turn to the dark side is non existent so we probably got the weakest incarnation of Anakin since AoTC.
I'm not certain if Zonakin can handle this, he'll definitely kill some but no Zonakin isn't allowed here otherwise there's no point of even making the difference anymore.

These things and more."
Uhh read the post, I'm talking about the actual movie. He wasn't full dark side, he was conflicted, If he faced all the masters even without Mace he will still be conflicted. Ergo no zone.
Not exactly true if you like being right then of course there's a difference. Do you even know what in the zone meant when it was first coined? I'm not being sarcastic but do you?
It looks like Anakin's Zone state continues between events from IH to events from jedi temple. After all, Anakin was able to kill Cin with a few blows and choking Bene with his bare hand at the same time.
I have no doubt, that he would be motivated enough, to enter into his Zone state. After all, at this moment he probably thinks only about Padme.
Ventress has consistently engaged both Skywalker and Kenobi together. Opress has engaged the same duo in the past seemingly having the advantage. Then of course Kenobi has engaged 2 beasts like Maul and Opress once.
Now in all those scenarios the solo act was not more powerful than any one of the duo they were engaging. In this case Skywalker is a lot more powerful than any of his foes.
So the only argument for it being impossible for Skywalker to accomplish this, is that 3 combatants is just too much. But then Count Dooku while drugged and blind engaged Ventress plus 2 Nightsisters in Saber combat. And Skywalker is a peer to Count Dooku in Sabers at least.
So conclusion is, it's definitely possible for Skywalker(Non-Zone) to win this. However a majority would be a different story.
Anakin is a good amount faster than all of them, unquestionably more skilled than all of them, and far more powerful than all of them. On top of that, he's shown that he can successfully wreck Ventress mid-fight (who is more powerful than Kolar and Fisto) and thanks to his vast amount of Force energy reserves, he doesn't tire.
I don't see how the numbers changes that.

I think this is the factor here. Three combatants of that caliber might just be too much for him. If it were three lesser opponents, then Anakin would definitely win. The thing is that it's those three, who are in no way pushovers. Standard Anakin loses after a good, I think. Zortakin annihilates them in mere seconds.
