Actually no, there would actually be much bigger creature down there than those on the surface, so it makes sense to have both the sea emperor and the dragon leviathan in there. This is called deep-sea gigantism, which causes animals to be in larger size than their surface-dwelling cousins. We still don't know whether this is caused by Gravity or Pressure or other kinds of factors, but you need not look further than our own ocean to see for yourself the truth.

Giant Whales and Sharks such as the Blue Whale and the Greenland Shark (which is already big on the ocean surface but meh) can be found here, along with rare Giant Squid and probably the Colossal Squid which hasn't been found to date yet. The famous Japanese Spider Crab also thrives here, so does the elusive Giant Oarfish from the famous Navy SEAL picture. One of the more interesting creature is the Giant Isopod, which is an oversized isopod.

And you know what? There is still more than 90% of unexplored areas in the ocean, so it's safe to say that anything could be down there. There could be the long-thought extinct Megalodons, or the mythical giant Octopus a.k.a Kraken, or maybe our Earth's very own version of Sea Dragon Leviathan or Sea Emperor :D Exciting, isn't it?
