Lmao, Oda said you can learn other things that we don't see in the manga. It's stupid to say that we should look at there and ignore the actual manga. You can learn how tall a character is, or the name some unknown DF power, it's not for replacing the actual manga story. Which is why there are contradictions sometimes, when they say Shanks was a yonko when he fought mihawk, but then the manga said otherwise, Shanks wasn't a Yonko when he fought mihawk.

In the actual manga, mihawk declined Shanks's offer to duel, twice.

It's either;
-mihawk is so powerful, he thinks Shanks is unworthy to fight, we know that's not true, this is a guy who follow people like Don Krieg and Pre-TS Luffy, and apologizes like fanboy from Shanks himself.
-Or mihawk knows Shanks > mihawk, and he simply admits the power difference just like he admitted the difference between WB and Shanks.

Shanks rivals Kaido and WB, mihawk doesn't. Understand the reality.



Yup, they are not rivals. He fights people like Vista and Pre-TS Luffy, a level is way weaker than Yonko level. He also trains Zoro for fighting Shanks's underlings.

No mihawk walked away from don kreig too. He only chased them cause they woke him up from a nap or some shit like that.

Honestly the idea of marco vs king is so lame imo

Like Marco is obviously gonna win and him wasting his time with king while there are yonko makes it even worse

Obviously imo

Maybe thats why we havent got kings bounty. Maybe he does a double bounty reveal with marco.

Shanks is one of luffys goals

Mihawk was following Don Krieg because he was bored
Mihawk was chasing Luffy to see what so special about him. And he saw how people were protecting him.
Mihawk apologizes to Shanks because Luffy means a lot to Shanks
Vivre card literally says Mihawk waiting for a person stronger than Shanks....
It was literally stated that Mihawk and Shanks were rivals but then Shanks lost an arm. How is Shanks supposed to be stronger than Mihawk with 1 arm if he was only a match for him with 2?

If the tragedy of this act will just be defeat of the Scabbards then the raid may not fail after all.

Yep, my only thought is that some of the bigger fights (i.e. Kaido or the Calamities), may relocate to mainland Wano after some time, but that's it. The battle won't stop, this is probably an all night to morning affair.

Also, wouldn't put it behind Oda to have the battle end literally at dawn, to help accent the metaphor "bringing the dawn"

 

[Luffy bin Dragon]

.Yup, they are not rivals. He fights people like Vista and Pre-TS Luffy, a level is way weaker than Yonko level. He also trains Zoro for fighting Shanks's underlings.

So if you respect someone you are suddenly not rivals. There is no such thing as mutual respect between adversaries.
Shanks is not at his best (He doesn’t have an arm) that’s why Mihawk won’t fight him.
Do you seriously think that Oda will make Zoro’s final opponent a sniveling coward who holds on to false titles
Lastly lol no Zoro won’t fight Shanks‘ underlings his final fight will be Mihawk

 

[Paperchampion23]

Imo Hawkins has some tarot card that can make Kaido and Big Mom fighting each other for sometime

That reminds me, someone still has a 1% survival rate according to him. Assuming he knows none of the scabbards and activitely had to look up the person, its one of the pirates here?

These people believe that Shanks did Something greater than beating and WB didn’t hear about it. Don’t bother with them.

 

[Paperchampion23]

If the supernova really do even up defeating linlin and kaido oda has to bring capone, bonney, and urouge too for a full out supernova reunion

Bonney and Urogue probably are getting their own related arcs after. I dont think they will be involved here, especially because both have nothing to do with these Yonko and are focused on other things (Bonney is at least). I would have said Bege, but he probably isn't even near wano now

 

[Oblivion]

Isn’t It because of his lost arm

The dawn of the world won’t just be Wano

 

[Ravagerblade]

People theorize that maria is an okama? Do yall think its true? She does have actual boobs so im sceptical

I've doubtful of that.
She had some cleavage but poss on the smaller side.

 

[Formerly Seth]

Can we assume that Urouge is in good relations with Skypiea people?

Maybe his character arc is defending skypiea from returning for revenge Enel

 

[Ravagerblade]

I don't remember the exact locations, but I'm hoping Yamato and co fell into Black Maria's place.

Zoro begged mihawk like a clown, after that begging, Zoro won't fight with that guy. Don't you even know Zoro's personality? You think he will seriously rival a guy after begging him in front of him like that? His pride won't allow it. Zoro vs mihawk will never happen.

I don't care what Oda will make Zoro's final opponent, it won't be mihawk after that begging, teaching Zoro and becoming his teacher, they are good friends now.

Rivals fight with each other, Shanks and mihawk doesn't fight. Rivals; Kaido and Big mom, even though they are allies now, you can guess they will fight each other again. Rivals; Luffy and Kid. There is no rivalry vibe between Shanks and mihawk, there are levels to them now. Once Shanks wasn't a Yonko, it's obvious there wasn't a level difference, but now he is a Yonko there is a level difference, mihawk stays at Vista level, trains Zoro for Shanks's commanders.

 

[Albino 👑]

Idk what yall talking about really but shanks is definitely a goal for luffy

Them meeting eachother when luffy finally surpasses him, his crew, and retuning the hat is a extremely big deal for both.
Thats why both have been postponing their reunion for so long

 

[Sir Tuna Sandwich II]

Where Lamato transform???

Also Ussop and Nami actully been saved by 8-years and he pet dog:holdthisl:

To all the Crydotards the fact is it take this long to defeat the sccabards is still emberssing (LoL) and Killer calling him the 'strongest' still count as "x said" ler's not ignore Killer believe his pathetic capitan have a shot at finding One Piece and becaming Pirate King (LoL) he obviously isn't realible source, a Pleasurer material.

 

[Blother Fertitta]

Uh, no. Don't insult other users.

Fair enough

 

[Luffy bin Dragon]

Can we assume that Urouge is in good relations with Skypiea people?

Uoroge‘s wings are the same Birkan wings (Enel and his priests are from Birka but they killed everyone else) What does that mean?

@Erkan12 This is how you know how silly your arguments are. When you make Kurwa-chan spit facts, you know you have gone too far.
