@nik87 's double standards at play:
- Devil Fruit users = DF merchants
- Sword users = people who seek to achieve power through haki alone
Like what are they fighting with? A fucking sword so they are sword merchants if we follow your "DF standards"
Mihawk has one of the 12 ONLY Supreme Grade swords, there are like only 12 of them
How many Devil Fruits are there? 207 precisely
Devil Fruit merchants are less "merchants" than the guys you say they achieve power through haki alone while in fact, they use one of the 12 only existing swords
Heck, even Shanks is more worthy of the power he achieved than Mihawk and Zoro if we follow your crackpot logic
