Powers & Abilities Can Mihawk use rankyaku?

[Monkey D Theories]

The seraphim have the same skills as the shichibukai. Hence, imo it is very likely that Mihawk can use rankyaku.

Spoiler

Being able to send flying slashes like this isn't an inherent power of the dice dice fruit. Daz Bones has never used rankyaku, as far as I can remember. No, this is a technique exclusive to S-Hawk, hence I think it is very likely that it is something Mihawk can do.


Yoru is an incredibly large blade. And while Mihawk can surely wield it with great ease, he would nonetheless benefit from having multiple styles of swordsmanship, similar to Zoro. I think it is very likely that Mihawk has an alternative fighting style that is more speed based.

Spoiler

Using the pocket knife in conjunction with ACoA, ACoC, and rankyaku could possibly be this alternative fighting style

 

[Sekai Saikyō Mihawk]

It's beneath him

 

[Loki D. Terror]

Won't be surprised if he is able to. He can fight with a pocket knife.

 

[JDragon20]

Yeah Mihawk asked cp9 to teach him rokushiki

Actually geppo I could see since it's better than his tug boat for getting around.

Mihawk can shoot flying slashs from his sword, S-hawks entire body is a sword, it's not rocket science

 

[LolonoisZolo]

Mihawk has the strongest blade in the world but would use Rankyaku instead ? This is madness.

 

[Sir Yasheen]

No but mihawk should be able to create flying slashes with any blade he possesses

 

[TheKnightOfTheSea]

He's likely capable of using it, but I doubt we'll see him use it.

He has Yoru after all

 

[Peroroncino]

Why would he use kicking techniques?
People just want any excuse to spam mihawk threads i swear

 

[Malick the last Light]

We are a couple of threads away from people legit speculating that Mihawk has actually always been Sanji's end goal and that is he is a secret kick specialist. There is not a single character on Worst Gen who has more threads dedicated to him I am pretty sure.

Most controversial character of the series
Dude's so op, people either love him or hate him.
He's basically Roger but without the dying to some mere fodder disease part.

 

[style]

No he's pure swordsman

 

[Kung-Fu Dugong]

I don't think so. S-Hawk just uses flying slashes with his legs because he has the Supa Supa no Mi powers... basically any part of his body can become a blade. The Rankyaku technique produces a flying slash from a "blunt object" (the leg in most cases).

 

[Nadel]

he can

 

[soheilhazrat]

this is flying slash similar to what zoro uses this is s hawk sending flying slash with his foot which is turned into a blade

 

[SakazOuki]

No, Mihawk skipped leg days

 

[nik87]

He cant. He never trained such an inferior technique.
All his moves revolve around a sword.

 

[Malick the last Light]

No he's pure swordsman

I mean, by pure feats (which Mihawk haters always demand) you could actually argue Shanks is more of a pure swordsman than Mihawk.

Shanks has never done shit in the entire Manga without Gryphon while Mihawk does stuff like this:

Could Mihawk be a martial arts master who was so strong he just has not been using his main fighting style for decades? People have been telling me Roger/Shanks being depicted with a gun at some point meant they were not pure swordsmen so by that logic Mihawk kinda isn't either right?

 

[ShadowStyle369]

honestly why not i wouldn't be against it at all...if zoro can do tatsumaki without his blades whats stopping mihawk from doing a rankyaku if necessary

That's anime only

 

[ConquistadoR]

Mihawk will never use that because he is a pure & very traditional swordsman like Shanks or Roger. He only uses Air Bars.
