With this we're on the same page...

I guess my take on the first post was misunderstood by everyone and thought that I only view pure swordsmen as the legit swordsmen, I clearly don't...

But it goes like this, take this as an example: A world class mixed martial artist who can box fought a world class boxer in a boxing match, since in a boxing match you are only allowed to use your hands, the mixed martial artist lost because his boxing skills is clearly inferior... The mixed martial artist can also be considered as a boxer since he also box, but the mixed martial artist really is more than just a boxer... If he is allowed to use other body parts, the boxer will likely lose as he's only limited to boxing even if he's the best boxer, especially if the mixed martial artist is also one of the best overall...

That's what I'm trying to say...

No thats not how it works in one piece

zoro fought cabaji in a swordsman duel
cabaji spat fire used kicks and threw spinning tops MORE than he used his sword
he was still a swordsman and if zoro lost hed have lost to a swordsman

kaku boosted his power with a zoan (nothing to do with sword skill)
shiryu can turn invisible (nothing to do with sword skill)
fujitora uses gravity (nothing to do with sword skill)
they are still swordsmen

if zoro loses to any of them
he loses to a swordsman
if any of them beat mihawk
they become wss

One Piece is an exception now... Yeah right... If BB beats Mihawk while swaying a sword (even if it never landed), then he's the WSS...

What are the odds of someone who's not a swordsman picking up a sword and using it during their battle. It's little to none.

The truth is even if BB did something like that he would quickly be disarmed. BB is not going to be using that sword at a high level. The most he would do is use other attacks on a high level while holding a sword in his hand. Come of like how Luffy was punching people while holding a sword during Wano.

I wonder what will they say if Oda brings Roger via time travel and Mihawk still kept the pathetic title when Roger is still alive and kicking.

Just because its ''strongest'' / ''greatest'' swordsman (they forget the swordsman part) are they gonna bullshit Mihawk>Roger???

How can no one question if the point was being stronger than every sword holder then Roger would definitely possess the WSS title its not like Mihawk accomplished something Roger couldn't LOL.

The point is Mihawk is a pirate and any ''great pirate'' title holder (like Roger, Big mom, Emperors) is superior to him easily.

I just used an extreme case and thought his point was whoever beats Mihawk carrying a sword becomes a WSS even if they're not swordsmen...

Oh, I get your point... So I guess, Orochi is the extreme example since he is a swordsman but not world class...

Ill give you another example
golden lion shikki had 2 meitos (which later became his leg)
fought as a swordsman as you can see vs garp and sengoku as we see in chapter 0
yet he had the float powers
the same would apply to him say if he was relevant and beat mihawk hed become wss

remember the title is STRONGEST SWORDSMAN not most skillfull in swordsmanship

I know it has a lot to do with youtubers almost all of them seem to think shanks is stronger then Mihawk and they are influencers so most people will just follow their lead, but why did most of them just huddle around this thought? I used to be shanks>Mihawk to until I thought about It for more then 5 minutes, so how did a ridiculous notion get so popular? Not trolling rn I’m genuinely curious how this happened.

During my first read I already thought that. Nothing to do with youtubers for me, same for Yonko > Admirals btw
