If Mihawk gained his reputation from hunting down marines, why did he stop?
His character is said to seek thrilling challenges, then nothing is stopping you from forming a crew and keep taking on higher and higher officers in the marine organisation until you fall short somewhere.
That would have been the consistent path followed by someone purported to have conquerors haki whose only character trait (supposedly) is anxiously wishing to be tested against stronger and stronger opponents. As such he should have continued with his marine killing venture until he met his match
Instead he quit and became a warlord…
Mihawk having no known followers for starters, and accepting the warlord position to bout, that should invalidate the whole notion that he has conquerors and is constantly wishing to be tested against stronger opponents or swordsman
Both notions now prove false.
Or else, anyone should be able to give a valid reason he is warlord? What does it offer him in terms of character growth?
Bottom line is Mihawk can’t gather any strong followers (hence not a conqueror) and he is too scared to be
truly tested so he is in reality just a quitter
Mihawk, too scared to fight the upper tier of vice admrirals so he opts to become a warlord
