I don't think it matters, the idea that Rocks found out about Imu and went on to become a pirate for years is kind of silly IMO

Also, this opens a possibility that many many people can know about Imu. For example,
Rocks-Big Mom-Flampe
Rocks-Kaido-Ulti

I doubt they were all telling eachother about Imu, but it's entirely possible
I mean to that degree, so does Wapol and Sabo lol, I dont think physically letting someone go, especially someone as powerful as Xebec inherently means Imu is weak at all though lol.

Look at what he's doing to the giants in a possessed body.
 
It's hard to tell what Oda intends to say here. Swordskill = power. Evident by Zoro amping his skill with CoC. And now Xebec's swordsmanship is brought up. Now how does Shanks fight? He doesn't have a fruit, he only uses his sword and Haki, so same thing Zoro does. Cutting or not. He had Kamusari when he fought Mihawk, so shockwaves are in the equation.

But then again, as @ZenZu pointed out, why not just saying "with a power surpassing emperor Shanks".

You could argue, Oda does it on purpose. He wants the ambiguity.
He has no point
If u have better swordsmanship ur stronger simple as that
Swordsmanship as a whole includes haki and devilfruits
 
Stop it, this isn't about killing Luffy, don't act dumb. Akainu couldn't kill Luffy either, it's the difference in how Oda presented Mihawk during the war of the best. He didn't present him like some Xebec lvl guy.
Vista attacked Akainu as well if I remember correctly :myman:

Vista! Go handle our captain’s captain!
Plot. Lord of the coast says hi.
 
it's so true though, zoro wants to be the greatest swordsman of all time, and xebec in history was a swordsman so it's only natural he would have to surpass xebec's swordsmanship
Luffy will become the greatest Pirate alive, with the greatest shipwright Franky, the greatest Cook Sanji, the greatest Navigator Nami and the best Doctor in Chopper but yeah, Zoro just gonna be the what? The 5th greatest swordsman of all time? Cause that makes fucking sense...

The logic of some people on here will neevr fail to astound me I swear.
 
Then why not just call him weaker? "
He did, when he called Mihawk the World's Strongest Swordsman in the same sentence lmfao 🤣. Bro this manga is aimed at teenagers it's not supposed to be that complicated lool
I don't see any flaws in my line of reasoning yet. You can be the weaker swordsman but not weaker overall depending on how you can make up for it like with my Jozu example.
The flaw is that this does not make sense. Shanks is a swordsman, Mihawk is a swordsman. Mihawk is the strongest swordsman.

Swordsmanship is the only fighting style Shanks has. For example, you can say Mike Tyson is stronger than Mayweather as a boxer but Mayweather is more skilled. In this case, Mihawk is both stronger and more skilled. You could say Mayweather is stronger than McGregor as a boxer but that doesn't make him stronger overall, and that works because McGregor has another fighting style.

Shanks does not have another fighting style. He is a swordsman, end of. He is strongest when using swordsmanship. If Mihawk is both more skilled and stronger and a swordsman, then he is stronger overall, because if Shanks narratively cannot defeat Mihawk using his sword, then he's sure as shit not gonna magically get stronger if he throws his sword away and starts kickboxing lmfaooo 😂. He'll get shitstomped without his sword and loses to Mihawk with his sword, as does every other swordsman alive.

The agenda is over; Xebec proves that cutting is not the be-all end-all to swordsmanship. You can be renowned as an exceptional swordsman even when using blunt shockwaves etc... These non-cutting abilities also form a part of swordsmanship. It proves that Shanks is included in Mihawk's title and so would Xebec and Roger if they were alive.
