What are Mihawk's actions though? All we know is that he hunted Marines and defeated unknown swordsmen, with the exception of Shanks maybe. That pales in comparison to what Whitebeard and Roger have achieved in their lives, and the amount of individuals their influence breaches.
Yes WB and Roger were more influential, but Mihawk's title is still more relevant than WB's.
Post automatically merged:

how did he earn it? His best feat is fighting 1 bil Shanks. Not even winning.
That's it.
He beat the same guy Kaido beat to earn his title

Vista's rival copers have been crying for 15 years and making excuses for every negative stuff about their idol (practically everything is bad lol) and now all they have left is wishful thinking and appealing to things no one knows.

Well although we already know that Vista's rival is also hiding behind the shadow of the clown :vistalaugh:

I don't see much correlation honestly. Kaido and WB were central pieces in their focus arcs, while Mihawk will be a side villain
Centerpieces of part of the story that Oda considers a filler.
Mihawk may not be a centerpiece of the story core but considering that the core of the story are Wealth, Fame and Power, he might as well be the centerpiece of the final saga considering he represents Power.
Has ties to Redhair, Buggy and possibly Imu as well. No wonder he is more relevant than Kaido and Whitebeard.

Seems like author himself values Vista's rival more than the other two. How are we gonna cope with that fact, Buddha-chin? :sanmoji:

How does he value it most?

After marineford the only thing Oda has done is to say that L-hawk hides behind a clown :gokulaugh:

Well other things like...

- Pulling an L-hawk clone out of the sleeve that also flees the battlefield.

- Putting Shanks in crydo's top 5 but not L-hawk.

- Not mentioning at all that L-hawk has CoC.

- Putting L-hawk sweating and making some disoriented faces when the clown he's hiding in talks about wanting to be the king of pirates and take on other Yonko.

Because zori isn't strong enough to beat mohawk yet?


WB blows mohawk and kaido out of the water in terms of relevance to plot and op lol.

Mohawk is pretty insignificant outside of zoro. kaido was just another opponent for goofy.
Whitebeard's relevance ended in pre-TS.
He has only been a hype tool for either Kaido or Rocks in post-TS.
Mihawk's has ties and relevance with characters who arent Zoro.
Snitch, Buggy, Crocodile and maybe even Imu.

How does he value it most?
By keeping Mihawk only for the final saga which is the core of the story while everything else is like a filler to Oda.

this is a new cope

mihawk matters more because he gets no screentime or story relevance

fucking lmao
Why is the most irrelevant guy saved up for final saga instead of other two who supposedly matter more? :sanmoji:

Why are you assuming he's being saved for anything more than his fight with Zoro? Something happening in the last arc doesn't automatically make it more important than anything else, do you think Zoro's confrontation with Mihawk is going to be longer than Wano or something?

Doesnt matter how long the things like Wano lasted, what matters is that to Oda, only what comes after Wano is the core of the story.
Aka the most relevant of the 3 World's Strongest characters is Mihawk while other two were offed in a filler.
When you have triggers of the story being Wealth, Fame and Power and both Zoro and Mihawk representing Power, why would you think their relevance is second to anything from the filler?

I don't subscribe to your wealth fame and power weird gimmick thing you're doing because they aren't tied to characters. The pirate king has all 3, it wasnt spread between his crew members. None of that stuff was filler, that's an idiotic way to read stories. By that logic, literally everything except the ending is filler, and that's retarded. Zoro vs Mihawk is not going to be insanely important narratively, and that's probably the most important thing Mihawk is ever going to get so lmao.

You are arguing against Oda, in both cases.
Case 1 - The story begins with those 3 words and they are triggers of the story. Oda himself said that triggers have gathered when Nami, Zoro and Luffy joined up.
Case 2 - According to Oda, you could start reading the story after Wano if you never read it before and it would be like you havent missed anything because what comes now is the core of the story. And only Mihawk of the 3 World's Strongest remains.

Mihawk vs Zoro is the greatest fight of the show and coincidentally one with the longest build-up.
Seems like Oda has been working on that one longer than on any other fight/character/arc. :sanmoji:
