Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1155 Spoilers Discussion

More and more top tier swordsmen popping up in the final saga... Looks like sword-haters are in for a rough time

Chapter ain't even out but Xebec has irrefutably proven Mihawk > Shanks lol?

I never thought Shanks isn't a swordsman or Roger isn't a swordsman were ever good arguments. Mihawk's bounty put those non swordsman arguments to bed, and yet it kept the overall combat aspect alive at the same time, because Shanks' sword skills were singled out, but Shanks was never called weaker.

Yes, he has.

Shanks was called weaker when Mihawk was called the strongest swordsman 😂

I hope Rocks used more than just his sword skills to kill that admiral

 

[NikaInParis]

Cured by HIM.

Not even Davy Jones could wipe away that mighty smile off his face

It's hype for Mihawk because Mihawk is the current strongest swordsman, and Xebec proves irrefutably that you do not need to master 'cutting' to be considered an exceptional swordsman, contrary to the general gist of that post you tagged us in. Weaker swordsman does equal weaker overall. Shockwave swordsmen are just as valid as cutting swordsmen.

Xebec being stated as a swordsman by the narrator no less is finally proof that guys like Shanks and Roger are undeniably swordsmen, and that Shanks is 10000% included in Mihawk's title.

Your issues with Mihawk's portrayal vs Shanks' are aside to the simple point that when Oda said Mihawk is the world's strongest swordsman with even greater sword skills than Shanks, he was literally telling us Mihawk > Shanks. Actually quite outrageous considering he usually keeps these things ambiguous.

Imagine, bro could've stopped at "Mihawk is the WSS" and that would've been enough, but it's like he knew this whole hakiman Shanks debate has been going on for decades and wanted to finally nip it in the bud lmfao. Man randomly included Shanks' name in his Mihawk wank chapter just so that nobody had any confusion as to who the strongest swordsman in the world is, wild.

People can bring up Vista, his portrayal to the world etc... but the fact of the matter is, Oda has proven he is more than happy to say Mihawk > Shanks in a direct comparison. He is literally the world's greatest leecher, as Mihawk cannot be weaker than Shanks from a narrative perspective. His title isn't a rumour, it's official. Mihawk is just a chill guy who is yet to fight seriously — he'll get his love; at this point there's no point in fighting it, just wait for the feats. The longer we wait, the crazier the feats due to power creep. Honestly the biggest nod to Mihawk being wildly strong is the fact that he's this strong and completely unblemished by scars. He has this untouchable air to him that even Shanks doesn't have.

Incredible post

Imu literally has a saber and has a toolbox with swords…

We see Kaido use a sword and gun yet nobody's claiming that he doesn't always fight with a kanabo..

Holy shit

I like how everyone can't imagine hypotheticals when it comes to me but when it's Roo saying shit like "Doffy with immortality could surpass imu" suddenly no one bats an eye
Yet again I'm being made out as some type of powerscaling lol cow for no reason

Xebec uses 0 sword style. His hands are his swords

 

[LadyVados]

Mihawk = Xebec >= Imu anyway so whether they’re a swordsman doesn’t matter.

Roxmen D Xebekuna

Shanks was called weaker when Mihawk was called the strongest swordsman 😂

Then why not just call him weaker? "His strength even surpasses that of the Emperor Shanks" instead of his "swordsmanship even surpasses that of Emperor Shanks?"

You think Oda of all people threw Shanks under the bus there? Not in a million years is he calling Shanks weaker outright like that. That statement confirmed Shanks was a swordsman but it didn't outright confirm Mihawk > Shanks.

I don't see any flaws in my line of reasoning yet. You can be the weaker swordsman but not weaker overall depending on how you can make up for it like with my Jozu example.

 

[Monkey D Al]

he was still older than luffy

Yes, they enlisted at the age of 22. But would the world government place a rookie to protect the world nobles at the reverie? Probably not.

How are Mihawk and Xebec above Imu tho

 

[Shiroyru]

Yes, he has.

Shanks was called weaker when Mihawk was called the strongest swordsman 😂

Ok so why didn’t Oda just say “Hawk Eye stronger than the Emperor Red Hair!” Rather than saying only Mihawk’s sword skills are better b

Gunko is capable of one shotting top tiers as the RHM of Imu our girl has come far

Her AP is lethal
As seen vs Sabo , Loki & Gaban

Why is Whitebeard the WSM instead of the world's strongest human? It must mean Big Mom is stronger

 

[MonsterKaido]

Roxmen D Xebekuna

He says his sword skills are better then goes on to proclaim he's the WSS
It's a package deal, he's both stronger and more skilled

 

[Definitivo]

Your issues with Mihawk's portrayal vs Shanks' are aside to the simple point that when Oda said Mihawk is the world's strongest swordsman with even greater sword skills than Shanks,

Nope, Oda made it clear that Mihawk is only superior to Shanks in swordsmanship and that Shanks is superior overall.

Otherwise, I would have said Mihawk is stronger.

Cope.

I would buy this if Oda really committed to making "swordsmanship" a real thing, instead of just a haki stick, and I don't even think Haki existed when Mihawk was introduced.
