its almost like wb is an entire biased person who refused to acknowledge shanks was no longer the snot nosed brat on the ship while the vivre card tells us he was more than that.
"Lanji on the low top tier Posthawk train "
nah
"Seriously though, is he still the WSS or not? Meaning, till now he hasnt found his worthy rival who can challenge him. And still treats Shanks as a one armed has been, with Shanks still to this date being referred to as the dude who duelled Mihawk in the past."
he is as long as no one stronger challenges him for it
whitebeard had the wsm title till death didnt he . If I ask fans here if he was the strongest in mf I have a feeling a huge section would disagree with me.
I wont conclude anything on mihawk shanks yet
but I think the general point of black blades being the thing that make him stronger than any of these people is out the window now.
