This is a funny chapter, now i will discuss for real, this chapter shows a lot of things :
Firstly, Gaban is said to be the left-handman of Roger, a legendary figure, and mountain eater a title he got from cutting fucking trees :
In comparison, Rayleigh is introduced as Roger's right-hand man, partner, and vice-captain, bearing the title of "Dark
King," for his strength following Roger's title as the "Pirate
King."
To repeat their titles:
Pirate King = Standing above all pirates
Dark King = The King of Underworld ( Mei'Ou )
Mountain Eater = beating trees on a mountain
> Even the Straw Hats knew about Rayleigh in the same way they knew about Roger, yet they don't recognize Scopper :
> Scopper tried to attack a fodder like Road yet he dodged his attack :
> His presence is insignificant to Luffy and Zoro. Keep in mind that when Luffy was at Egghead, he was seen shivering from Kizaru's presence and even said someone strong was coming—something that wasn't observed with Old Gaban which makes
his threat below Admiral level :
> The same Kizaru couldn't get past Old Rayleigh and complained about how the latter demanded more than this, which made him look bad. He became enraged afterward and vented his frustration on fodders.
That alone places Old Rayleigh on Admiral level as a threat, unlike Old Gaban :
> Gaban was so scared of Kaido that he didn't muster the courage to visit Wano because of his presence since years ago, the same Kaido Prime Oden was about to beat, same oden was said to be Whitebeard's commander :
> His best hype in Elbaf is holding his own against fodder giants, not Dorry or Broggy. Hell, Gaban allied with giants, yet they couldn't stop Loki, who is stated to have been caught by Shanks with no mention of Shanks having difficulty while doing so :
> Imagine having an army of giants and help from Old Rayleigh, who could completely stop Kizaru. His CoC was hyped to be on Shanks's level, and he had a Prime Emperor sweating and retreating in his presence—though it was known that the said emperor would win, but with a heavy cost yet you want me to believe he would fail to stop Loki with help, the same person who Shanks packed :
So in comparison :
> Old Rayleigh greatly surpasses Old Gaban in fame, strength, threat, portrayal, and even titles.
( mind you Oden didn't even mention his name in his diary unlike Rayleigh and Roger )
Pirate King = Standing above all pirates
Dark King = The King of Underworld ( Mei'Ou )
Mountain Eater = beating trees on a mountain
- As a bonus, These giants named FODDER like Usopp " God Usopp ", the Same losers who fell for "Yeah we got your chiefs in our prison come work for us for 100 years and we'll free them" with 0 proof :
- This made me think about that lie of Moria had an equal clash against Kaido :
> About the equal thing, It was also translated similarly with Oden but I don't know if it's the same kanji or not "肩を並べる" which means on par and equal if you search about it but Sandman denied this:
Anyway, this just shows how much of a fodder EoS Sanji would become when his parallel in old age and with the help of giants, he failed to stop Loki, who Shanks defeated.
And mind you, EoS Zoro is the WSS ever, and Luffy is going to be the Liberator Nika.
Even Old Rayleigh wouldn't be put like this in Elbaf, whose threat even makes admirals waver.
