Garp’s protege being skilled at throwing hands isn’t that surprising, and Aokiji really didn’t have any serious on screen fights pre-TS outside of a brief clash with WB
The hammer was drawn beside Loki since his intro
@soupongo Ngl, “Aramaki is secretly a grandmaster swordsman who hasn’t touched his Kokuto yet because reasons” has similar vibes to “Roger will use his gun at some point”…
Shanks was in Kaido’s top 5, with 4 other people who almost certainly are some of the people who beat Kaido in the past. Shanks also got the better of him at MF
Bruh, Shanks’s Haki being relative to Joyboy’s is literally canon.
Either Shanks wasn’t going all out against WB, or Oda just retconned Shanks’s Haki to be on another level. Pick your poison
My guy, is there even any legitimate argument left for Roger > Shanks? Shanks’s Haki was straight up placed on the same level as Joyboy’s. Roger and Garp needed to team up to extreme diff DR Xebec, who’s Haki was at best on par with Joyboy’s based on the solo skysplit feat. Shanks’s Haki should...
Admirals, Kaido, and BM are not pushing Shanks to extreme diff bro.

It was definitely just bluster so that Aramaki could save some face. Besides, it’s not like Aramaki being way weaker than Shanks is really a mark against him since Crydo and Meme are also way weaker than Shanks
@Paperchampion23 Is it possible that each of the New Yonko will fight an Admiral before the Yonko battle royale happens?
Akainu leads a force against the SHPs (maybe Zoro and Sanji get to fight Zodiac VAs)
Ryokugyu leads a force against the RHPs
Fujitora leads a force against CG
Kizaru leads a...
Didn’t Luffy and Zoro just wake up the same day GB attacked?
Shanks asking if Kid was fully healed before he fought him (with this taking place like a week or two after Kid left Wano) pretty clearly proves that Shanks was talking about the alliance still physically recovering, not partying.
1. GB started twerking even before he figured out who it was.
2. Do you actually think GB has serious intentions to lead an assault on the RHPs anytime soon? I read that more as GB trying to save some face
