Break Week Would you leave the forum / quit OP if Oda confirmed Shanks > Mihawk or vice versa?

3. Zoro has fought numerous swordsmen that flat out dropped their swords and used other abilities, yet were still swordsman and lost. Is Shanks alone an exception?

.
Who?

Hatchan fought with just swords
Daz Bones stated that he’s not a swordsman
Ohm fought with just his iron cloud sword
Kaku constantly used his swords and Rankakyu, which is basically just ranged sword slashes
Ryuma just used a sword
Hyouzou only used his swords
Pica was never called a swordsman
King said he’s not a swordsman

Pica was never called a swordsman
King said he’s not a swordsman
Cabaji barely used his sword and was still a swordsman.

Kaku threw away 2 of his swords and spent most of the fight using his DF power. Was still a swordsman

Hyouzou tried using poison. Was still a swordsman.

King never said he wasn't a swordsman. Zoro said King never called himself such so he shouldn't have expected him to not use everything he's got to win(just like Cabaji and Kaku did)

Diamante mostly uses his DF power. Was still a swordsman.

Inurashi uses floating abilities and electro. Was still a swordsman.

Zoro himself uses fire and whatever voodoo Asura is. Is still a swordsman.

Shanks is confirmed a swordsman so how come Shanks alone gets to be the sole exception of being a swordsman who doesn't count because he could have other abilities? Show me when that has been a factor.
 
I could see some Shanks fans extremely upset and threaten to leave but they’ll stay.

Mihawk is goal post for Zoro while Shanks might not even be able to powerscale because he’s only there to further Luffys knowledge of haki. He might die a painful death though.
 
3 questions

1. How is Shanks the swordsman stronger than the strongest swordsman Mihawk?

2. Ryuma and Brook had the exact same skillset yet Brooke got crushed. How did Ryuma win?

3. Zoro has fought numerous swordsmen that flat out dropped their swords and used other abilities, yet were still swordsman and lost. Is Shanks alone an exception?

Gotta explain how swordsman Shanks gets to be the sole exception.
Also the first time we even found out about Zoro's goal Kuina basically said she needs strength since skill isn't enough
 
MOTHERFUCKERS

Mihawk is literally the only man in history to have higher bounty than his captain

And

Mihawk's captain is Yonko

THAT"S HOW BADLY MIHAWK SHITS ON YONKO

Can you seriously imagine how much stronger you have to be than your captain to have higher bounty than him?
Even when Zoro was equaling Luffy, Luffy's bounty was far above Zoro's.
And you delusional Yonkoturds still need to play "Ooo Shanks is not a swordsman gynmanistics"

Who gives a fuck about Shanks.
Take Shanks out of the fuck story, Mihwak's hype and portrayal Royally shits on Yonkou's.

And the fact that there are Mihawk fans even humoring this bullshit is sad.
How about you instead argue at how badly Mihawk shits on Yonko instead of feeding the troll.

You are literally in the advantage, your character is literally superior to theirs and you still wanna humor their nonsense?

Its like Gol D Roger fans trying to argue why Gol D Roger is superior to Yonko.
How about you read manga and find out, its blantantly obvious.

Just like its blatantly obvious MIHAWK SHITS ON THE YONKO

@DonWick
@Red Admiral
@Shiroyru

And every other yonkoturd ever.
As if 1058 Wasn't enough to end your careers.
You wanna get embarrassed even more?

Wait till Mihawk shows one named attack and he would make anything ever Yonko has even shown look like dog shit.

Bruh, let's not pretend Buggy isn't an exception to the rule of a Yonkos individual strength. Gloating Mihawk is massively stronger than his Captain when his Captain is Buggy the Clown is.... :whitepress:

Whitebeard even touted that the no named Impel Down members under Buggy leadership were a bigger factor than him in Marineford. Damn near his whole crew is stronger than him.

Lets stop this load of garbage

Buggy has higher bounty than Yonko
Far higher bouny than Blackbeard

Buggy is being treated as an average Yonko..if not above average and the cap that captain puts on subordinates strength and that's a massave cap..Zoro's bounty should be around 2 Billion Right now at least still isn't applying to Mihawk.

World Perceieves Buggy as stronger than Luffy, a bigger threat than Luffy.

But Mihawk in actuality is SO MUCH STRONGER than Luffy that even when his captain has higher bounty than Luffy (Aka perceived bigger threat than Luffy) Mihwak is still the biggest threat.

If Mihawk was in SHP his bounty would still be above Luffy's.

No other perspective can be taken after chapter 1058 besides the fact that Mihawk low diffs an emperor.

It's not about how strong Buggy actually is. The WG thinks he's a legendary pirate who rivals Shanks, and they gave Mihawk a higher bounty than him by a considerable margin.

Not only that, but they literally view Mihawk as Buggy's subordinate and he still has a higher bounty. And we're talking about a Yonko, not some random ass fodder crew. When has that ever happened before in the manga?

Yet Buggy has higher bounty than all of them.
People assigning bounty still perceive Buggy as someone worthy of his bounty.
His bounty poster directly states that he is strong enough to rival Shanks and other emperors.

So don't give me this faulty ass arguments.
Those who think Buggy is Yonko level are telling us MIHAWK SHITS ON BUGGY AKA MIHAWK SHITS ON YONKO

Oda literally have put all you Yonko cockroaches in such a bad spot after chapter 1058, anything you say sounds like a load of bullshit.
Post automatically merged:

The portrayal Mihawk has received in chapter 1058, there is literally no going around it.
Anything trying to downplay Mihawk's bounty turns out to be mindless cope
 
No, because at the end of the day, they are both monsters and one being stronger does not take anything away from the other.
Even though I'm team Mihawk, if Shanks ends up being stronger, I'm fine with it because it doesn't mean Mihawk isn't one of the strongest people in the verse.
I also believe we will never get a definite answer to that question because they will probably never fight each other.
And I am aware that there is a strong Zoro agenda behind this debate (every power scaling debate on this forum can somehow be tracked back to Zoro), but Zoro will defeat Mihawk and end up WGS in the end and Shanks will probably fall to someone else (BB) and thus be irrelevant to Zoro becoming the WGS plot.
 
If it was that obvious mihawk> shanks this thread wouldn't have 7 pages, there is a reason oda said 5 chapters ago mihawk has higher sword skill then shanks, if he wanted to make one stronger then the he would just say stronger.
So mihawk is better then shanks at some things and vice versa.

Funny how there are tons of sources saying Mihawk is the stronger one while there's not even a single source which says the One Armed Has Been is the stronger one.

In the Same chapter, Oda also said Mihawk is the Strongest Swordsman while the One Armed Has Been is a Swordsman.

He has been calling him the strongest for over 2 decades. Why would he need to say that the person that's the strongest is stronger than someone else? Seems redundant
