Does this chapter actually change anything to the shanks vs mihawk discussion?
His a more skilled when it comes to swordsmanship yeah but for the most part that wasn't what the discussion was mainly about
For the first time in the official manga (in VC had already happened, but in the manga not yet), Mihawk's title was cited right after Shanks's name.
Till now Mihawk>Shanks was only a logical assumption (in manga pages), but with this chapter someone important and knowledgeable said Shank's name, implied clearly that he is a swordsman and right after that said that Mihawk is the strongest swordsman.
Like I said in VC that has already happened, but in manga? That's the first time I think.
