Zoro's endgame fight for the WSS title will not be a fight where he fights the #2 of the opposition as the #2 of the Strawhats, in service to Luffy. It will be another 1v1 duel with the entire Strawhats or maybe even the entire world spectating, as Zoro places his life on the line fighting for his dream. Only this time, Zoro would win and his name would reach the heavens.
Even after beating King, look at what Oda made Zoro think about, "From now on to the day I beat him to become the Greatest Swordsman...".
Shiryu or no other opposition #2 would take the title away from Mihawk, it is solely Zoro's job to do so.

That luffy wants the Zoro to have the wss by the time luffy is pirate king which is before he enters the final war.
Mihawk isn’t Zoro endgame fight from chapter 5 alone
