And it's not very different from being avoided by preskip Luffy, having an attack blocked by Mr 1 and being stopped by Crocodile.
Yes it is
Mihawk never intended to kill Luffy, he wanted to test what is so special about him. But Mihawk was shown so much faster than G2 that Luffy couldn't even afford to attack Mihawk or else he would get his arm chopped off. No one besides Mihawk in One Piece ever has been portrayed in that light against G2 besides Kizaru, which shows Mihawk's speed is up there with Kizaru.
And what is wrong with Luffy dodging? G2 Luffy is fast as fuck, when much slower base Luffy was dodging so many attacks from Katakuri and Katakuri was actually blood lusted pulling back no punches.
And Daz Bones blocked slash aimed at flesh, just like Jozu did yet when Mihawk used casual steel cutting slash Daz was one shot.
Crocodile didn't stop shit, he was deflected and nearly lost his arm. Mihawk showed him mercy by using flat end of his sword
Look at this fodder, literally if Mihawk didn't adjust his attack mid slash because he is Godly fast and used sharp end, Crocodile would have lost an arm.
And then Mihawk proceeded to treat Crocodile same way he treated Don Krieg. Mihawk destroys Don's remaining fleet and then shows pity to Don. Mihawk destroys what ever is remaining of Croc's crew, which is Daz Bones and then shows pity to Crocodile.
Literally in that very moment Mihawk is looking Godly because Crocodile was fast enough to sneak attack Akainu who can dodge two commanders yet failed to do that to Mihawk
