God Valley was the last chance for Oda to do something about Roger's portrayal and give him feats or the World's Strongest title or to show him dominate someone worthy dominating and the madman Oda did his best to not lift Roger on a pedestal.
It is like he picked things from my playbook but made it even worse...
I already expected Rayleigh to be equal to Roger but this madman made even Scopper equal to Roger.
He didnt even show him in as good of a light as he did with Xebec or Harald.
And this is 39 years old prime Roger, the same age his apprentice Shanks is today...
Whitebeard got a far better portrayal against Domi Xebec than Roger did.
WB stood his ground alone and managed to fend off Domified Xebec while Roger and Garp were trashed in 1vs2...
Remember Chinjao's words how Pirate King is a Conqueror above Conquerors? Yeah... he wasn't. Just like I said he wasn't.
It's like we already knew that what makes one into Pirate King is not being stronger than others but having Oden/Robin to tell you where to go.
Heck, Oda didnt even give him a haki burst to negate DF abilities to at least put him on the same portrayal as Shanks.
Not like I already said that Shanks is all that Roger was but more... Your fault for doubting my words.
In the end, the man of countless equals was nothing special, just as I promised.
Ladies and gentlemen, this man has been your hero all this time, the one you were swearing upon to be a limit for Zoro's strength:
