Shanks is a Hakiswordsman, can't even use hao without griping his swordHakiman>Swordman
Luffy >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Hakiswordman > hakiman
Not always though. Especially not in his early showings of Hao (like on Whitebeard's ship)Shanks is a Hakiswordsman, can't even use hao without griping his sword
FINALLY. I've been wondering where tf those were, but I always reasoned it was the fact that no sane bounty hunter would go after OP top tiers and just settle for easier bountiesNahhh the Uno reverse card is craazzzyyyy. Oda potentially making bounty hunters relevant again is quite unexpected imo.
that was weak doodoo hao that only knocked out fodder, this was super hao that paralyzed an admiral. Some would say this was Gryphon's hakiNot always though. Especially not in his early showings of Hao (like on Whitebeard's ship)
Say sikeSome would say this was Gryphon's haki
Maybe Gryphon draws out Shanks' Haki like Enma draws out Zoro'sSome would say this was Gryphon's haki
Wdym, don't be disrespectfull.Shanks > Mihawk. It's clear at this point.
This is also what I believe. Nicely putMihawk's a better/greater swordsman. Shanks is stronger overall imo
It is a cope, all the statements that put Mihawk above Shanks are in reference to current Shanks. You're right about Shanks not losing any strength by losing his arm tho (it was stated so in a databook), but even so Mihawk doesn't view him worthy and wants someone stronger than him. This idea that Mihawk's only focus is on swordsmanship as a random concept is also just blatantly contradicted by Zoro the guy trying to surpass Mihawk learning stronger and advanced versions of Haki to achieve his dream.I'mma say it- this might be with a bit of cope too.
Mihawk's "stronger than Shanks" statements feel outdated. He rivaled a two armed Shanks then stopped fighting him after Shanks lost his "dominant" arm. He's a swordsman, and fighting another swordsman who can't even use his main arm would be shameful whether he wins or loses.
Also that Shanks is from like 12+ years ago.
Until Mihawk measures up to the now Shanks or the canon reconfirms a CURRENT standing rather than "back then tho" bs, I'm never folding about him being equal or stronger than CURRENT Shanks. is throwing ADVANCED CONQUEROR'S with just his will, without drawing anything to infuse it, across damn near continental ranges, and somehow terrifying an admiral with just that.
This "losing his arm made him weaker" logic is doodoo. Kid lost his arm and went from being decimated by Shanks to taking several hits from Big Mom and even throwing her around. Shanks losing his arm might have made him focus less on his swordplay and more on his haki game, because clearly his Haki mastery surpasses every other we've seen.

Well, he is the "greatest SWORDSMAN", if he was the strongest in every category he'd just be the new strongest man since WB is dead, no?This idea that Mihawk's only focus is on swordsmanship as a random concept is also just blatantly contradicted by Zoro the guy trying to surpass Mihawk learning stronger and advanced versions of Haki to achieve his dream.
Nah he's the "Strongest Swordman", Whitebeard's title despite what you'd assume it means refers to Whitebeard's pirating life overall according to the Ace novels (interpret that as you will) so unless Mihawk can live up to the "life" Whitebeard lived then nah he wouldn't get that.Well, he is the "greatest SWORDSMAN", if he was the strongest in every category he'd just be the new strongest man since WB is dead, no?
That's the dreamZoro>Shanks agenda
WG when EOS Straw Hat crew has yonko tiers and they ain't even the captainThat's the dream
I'm waiting for Yonko lvl Robin and Franky.WG when EOS Straw Hat crew has yonko tiers and they ain't even the captain
I imagine this would only be Yamato and Zoro.WG when EOS Straw Hat crew has yonko tiers and they ain't even the captain
If Sanji fought GB and made him bleed he could scale to base hao yonkoI imagine this would only be Yamato and Zoro.
Zoro, Sanji and YamatoI imagine this would only be Yamato and Zoro
Jinbe too, I'd say. He's seen with the monster trio now, and is a former warlord, one of the few guys who can tango with a yonko TWICE and not get devastated-Zoro, Sanji and Yamato
Lackluster Onigashima fight is biasing people against him. Pre TS Jinbe stopped an attack from Akainu, same as Marco ... He really should have fought one of Kaido's CalamitiesJinbe too, I'd say. He's seen with the monster trio now, and is a former warlord, one of the few guys who can tango with a yonko TWICE and not get devastated-
we honestly give Jinbe far less credit that he's worth. And I also realized this'd mean Luffy has a new set of "4 emperors" in his crew too, so it'd be cool.
The last Road Ponegliph is the same Road Ponegliph in Fishman right? Before BM take Fishman Island under his colony, WB was there first. That makes sense in my opinion.Also, I just realized the last Lode Poneglyph might be with Blackbeard after all.
Shanks is gone- Greenbull is gone.
So unless Shanks tells Barto to tell Luffy to go to Eblaf (for all the viking ties) then Marco's the only one left there who might know where the last poneglyph is, since it's WB's iirc?
It'd make sense if BB just took it
What is this logic??If Sanji fought GB and made him bleed he could scale to base hao yonko
Not a good justification tbh. Zeus is seperate from her now, and not all DF abilities turn off while the user's dead/unconscious.( her homie Zeus was shown in this chapter, thus she has to be alive ).
I worry that he'd mid diff Jack too, though. And the other calamities would give him a hard time but they already had opponentsLackluster Onigashima fight is biasing people against him. Pre TS Jinbe stopped an attack from Akainu, same as Marco ... He really should have fought one of Kaido's Calamities
Base Yamato with Hao couldn't make him bleed with her blunt force attack. If Sanji makes him bleed with his blunt force kicks then he has more force behind his attacks.What is this logic??
It was shown that homies disappear if their user dies.Not a good justification tbh. Zeus is seperate from her now, and not all DF abilities turn off while the user's dead/unconscious.
Both the yonko are alive I'm pretty sure. We might even see Kaido witness Pluton
Back to the argument of a tree being able to bleed thenBase Yamato with Hao couldn't make him bleed with her blunt force attack. If Sanji makes him bleed with his blunt force kicks then he has more force behind his attacks.
I doubt this is the case. The homies she creates are independent living creatures. Unless she recalls the soul fragments, I think they can keep living after she dies. After all Prometheus was created by the former holder of the fruit who is dead nowZeus was shown in this chapter, thus she has to be alive
After she was put in seastone cuffs her homies were active. Negging her "ability" doesn't unmake her already existing homies.Back to the argument of a tree being able to bleed then
Not talking about Prometheus even if that's true or not. I mean that Zeus appeared in the chapter and Mother Carmel's homie disappeared after her death.I doubt this is the case. The homies she creates are independent living creatures. Unless she recalls the soul fragments, I think they can keep living after she dies. After all Prometheus was created by the former holder of the fruit who is dead now
Her homie was summoned exactly ONCE. Otherwise it was unseen before and after. I don't think it's constantly there as a living seperate entity with free will like Big Mom's are, since it only shows on commandMother Carmel's homie disappeared after her death.
That's not completely negging it. Luffy can't punch Prometheus with haki either, as they're simply intangible beings fueled by part of Big Mom's own soul, ofc they can't be negged by any thing that's not soul manip or their elemental weakness i.e water for Prometheus. Plus Luffy was able to get stretched by someone else when completely submerged in water and nearly drowning.After she was put in seastone cuffs her homies were active. Negging her "ability" doesn't unmake her already existing homies.
We already covered this, and he would have bled if Yamato's attack was stronger.Back to the argument of a tree being able to bleed then
It would have cracked his skull perhaps but not make him bleed out the mouthWe already covered this, and he would have bled if Yamato's attack was stronger.
