Man I almost want to tag the clowns who were placing Old Ray below or around Yamato. It's sad, hate for a few characters (Zoro and Admirals in this case) makes you take it out on a character with nothing but god tier portrayal every time he's on screen. There's no excuse for the disrespect that man has gotten the past few years, I'm not even a Rayleigh fan. Even Mihawk is different since he has things you can nitpick on MF.
Dude is Luffy's sensei who taught him haki, you played yourself if you thought Oda was ever gonna disrespect him even in the slightest. And you had Yonkou fans still tryna gatekeep this guy from this "Yonkou lvl" , after he literally made a Yonkou shit his pants. He spits on that title, literally the weakest he can be is that lvl.
W to L ratio on Rayleigh has to be the best in the entire series. Rayleigh is literally Shanks without any blemishes like Lor D Coast and Teach's scars.
Oda rolls out the red carpet for dude everytime he's on screen. I wouldn't even put a 4 bill bounty past him, that's how wanked he is.
