Talked with Sentinel too.
Either Lee is right and the event didn´t happen like many of us believed or Shanks indeed awakened a god like power after he lost his arm two years later after the Harald event.
Because it doesn´t make anysense at this point for Shanks to be stronger than this Loki after he was far weaker in the event with Harald castle.
I mean yes Shanks improved a lot but Loki has also potential.
He barely had his fruit and defeated Harald, 8 years later, Loki should be clearly stronger than the vision Loki fought Harald.
Loki 14 years ago was>>>>>>>>Shanks at least.
So what did Shanks got which made him so broken to be able to defeat a monster, who pose also insane adv CoC, one legendary devilfruit power and a legendary devilfruit weapon??
Mythical Zoan sword Gryphon.
Ratatsokr runs up the World Tree to deliver messages between the Dragon Niddhog and the Eagles living above it.
Ratasokr = Ragnir.
Niddhog = Loki.
Eagles = Shanks (Grypon).
This is more or less confirmation to me that Shanks is visiting Heaven/Astral World right now in Elbaph, and that we should see him soon.
Mythical Zoan Piece, my word.
Loki could only beat God's Knight Harald after receiving a Mythical Zoan Weapon.
Shanks could only beat Loki after receiving a Mythical Zoan Weapon.
Also, Haki grows from extreme use in battle. Shanks probably grew a good amount between 14-6 years ago. It's likely Loki didn't fight many strong top tiers seriously during this period, because no one wanted the smoke. Maybe a Linlin clash and Kaido clash.
Ain't no way Fraud's Knights wanted anything to do with fighting Loki after Loki beat Harald, the only one with CoC. Trying to kidnap babies instead. Lame.
