Questions & Mysteries What is harder to achieve Black Blade or Pirate King Title?

[BornInAbyss]

A permanentely black blade or the title pirate king?

Just a reminder that even the pirate king himself wasn‘t able to craft his own beloved sword into a black blade.

 

[Foul Legacy]

Two different things.

Pirate king requires - Strength , Money , Fame
WSS/Black Blade - Only Strength.

That's why Mihawk is a lone wolf and Roger isnt.

Strengthwise Black blade is difficult.

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Seeing how Mihawk himself said becoming the pirate king is a more perilous path than surpassing him I feel like it’s that option.

But why wasn‘t roger or shanks able to craft themselves black blades when it is easier than becoming pirate king?

Shanks can’t do either let’s be honest and why do you think Roger tried to forge a black blade?

Well why not? Didn‘t he love his sword and name his son after it? Why would such person not wanna turn it into a black blade?

If we take look caliber of swordsman required to forge a kokuto what they accomplished the pk title pales in comparison
Mihawk sits with the greatest of all with Ryuma that not even joy could rival
Forging a kokuto is the greater feat no doubt remember even if roger was called pk he failed in his goals and could only rely on next generation to carry out the job

That’s like asking why Luffy if he loves the straw hat so much didn’t learn how to sew and take care of it himself.

Yea but he applies adcoc to his Strawhat and throws it like a flying disc?

2 different goals. It's like comparing apples to oranges.

You can't become PK just by being strong. Nor can you become PK alone.

Mihawk didn't know how to be PK, like most characters in the manga. Buggy told him and Crocodile all they have to do to be PK was make it to the last island first.

Two different things. One is a sword and one is a symbolic hat which he became from shanks. Can‘t make an Analogy with it imo.

I don’t even know what you’re trying to say

 

[SkySanji]

Becoming PK is a power feat whereas making a black blade isn't, so they're incomparable, however Mihawk did say that surpassing him was easier than becoming PK.

Both are items loved by their owner. Its very much the same.

 

[Warine]

Shanks can’t do either let’s be honest and why do you think Roger tried to forge a black blade?

Because he is a swordsman

What you said makes absolutely no sense. You can't become PK by being the strongest. Buggy told us all you need to do to become Pirate King is be the first one to make it to the final island.

While the reason you turn a blade into a black blade is it make yourself stronger and create a blade that could withstand an unlimited amount of power.

[Warine]

In the space of hundreds and hundreds of years, only two black blades are recorded in history, the pirate king is a 25 years old title and at least 2 will be considered as such

Yet buggy proved him wrong.

And Chinjao told us that to be Pirate King you have to stand atop all other conquerors, I'd trust a conqueror himself who battled Roger over a literal clown who gets by through deceit.

Black blades require something other than haki, and combined with the fact that swordsmen stronger than Mihawk never made one, that's all I need to know to say it's not a power feat.
