@Red Admiral I think there is a very big chance that Shanks ends up the strongest. At the same time for his sacrifice to mean something he has to be a bit weaker than if he had two arms. I expect him to lose to BB but would have been able to win if he had both arms. This will add guilt to Luffy's final confrontation with BB.

comrade

List not set in stone tho, could change by the day, as it becomes increasingly hard to scale characters apart from the obvious ones.

@comrade After Killers statement I find it extremely difficult to justify Shanks being stronger than Kaido. Killer and Kid established an entire alliance to take Shanks down, clashed with his crew, but still both agreed that Kaido is the current Top dog amongst pirates.

Red Admiral

I really wonder where shishio gonna stand
he told me he gonna change his opinion with X
or he gonna assume Mihawk have X as well

ShishioIsBack

I mean they all failed..they underestimated Shanks..Now they know what yonko truly are

Red Admiral

Killer and Kidd failed to study Apoo ... let alone Shanks
Shanks BARELY goes full power ... WG stated "Shanks is monstrous when he is angry"
that Shanks with FULL POWER beats anyone ...

(Kaido might be stronger than Shanks but he too will lose)

comrade

Yes, Kaido might as well be stronger. But Oda does some heavy swordsman dickriding lately. Even amplifying it with CoC. Though if we assume that Shanks and his crew obliterated Kidd and his crew, how can he judge which Yonko is stronger? If each Yonko claps them easily, they don't even get to see how those Yonko look all out.Att least they see Kaido going all out. But they should only know little of Shanks power.

Red Admiral

there is nothing wrong with Kaido being strongest and yet lose cause of bad match up ... and so far he only showed weakness to 1 type of power

comrade

Swordsmanship is a bad matchup to everyone, lol.

MarineHQ

Dunno. Just feel like Oda went overboard with implying Kaido being the strongest recently. Though, we have the whole "people say" fiasco which begs the question why Oda repeatedly emphasizes that, as If he doesn't want to settle for Kaido as the current strongest without it contradicting his future writing.

Red Admiral

@comrade ... he didn't feared swordsmanship ... he feared another power

comrade

Kaido's title is more like a "give Kaido the benefit of the doubt". But Swordsmen are getting more and more overpowered. Zoro is a monster.

ShishioIsBack

I think Mihawk might have strongest Conquerors Haki in One Piece history as Ashura seems Conquers and everything Zoro does Mihawk can do far better

If Ashura is CoC..that is most advanced version of CoC yet
@Red Admiral @comrade

nik87

I dont think anyone else aside from Zoro is capable of Asura.

comrade

Mihawk, the true Haki god.

Red Admiral

I knew this day gonna come
just admit it ...

we were right about CoC ... and we gonna be right about Shanks's CoC being strongest ... come on Shishio ... CoC is Shanks's MAIN HYPE

ShishioIsBack

Not really. At this point I think Strongest swordsman would have Strongest CoC since Zoro is the first man to show advanced CoC "Dynasty Features"

Shanks top 5 CoC for sure tho so far Shanks hasn't shown anything advanced @Red Admiral

Seraphoenix

Jozu who saw Primebeard and Roger clash, called Shanks' conquerors haki "amazing". This chapter gives him incredible hype.

ShishioIsBack

Mihawk CoC > Shanks CoC = Roger/WB CoC
Mihawk CoA > Roger/WB CoA > Shanks CoA
Mihawks CoO > Shanks CoO > Roger/WB CoO
