Speculations Kuzan is Teach’s RHM, not Shiryu

#1
The RHM is usually the strongest, most capable, and most important subordinate.

Think Bepo saving Law from Teach, or Zoro and Killer on the roof.

Shiryu isn’t that guy. From the beginning of this whole Hachinosu subplot, only one BBP has been given a spotlight. And that is Kuzan.

We got a flashback from him and he’s mainly the guy fighting Garp.

It makes absolutely no sense for Shiryu to be the RHM over Kuzan. Imo Oda only included him in that cover page because 1) Kuzan’s allegiance hadn’t been officially revealed, 2) Shiryu might have been the #2 before Kuzan joined.

Regardless, it’s clear how Oda is portraying this. Kuzan is getting all of the hype, Shiryu is getting none.

İt is Shiryuu Kuzan is more equal than an First Mate

Shiryu already joined in that cover

I’d say he’s more of a partner as well but who gets more focus between them isn’t even debatable

Shiryu gets a page of focus while Kuzan gets multiple flashbacks + a big haki clash with Garp

Not to mention the entire thing started off with Kuzan engaging Garp and exchanging blows with him

This is literally exactly what happened with King

He got a flashback sequence with Kaido while Queen and Jack got nothing

I don’t see the difference
