Powers & Abilities Roger isn’t a swordsman

[TheKnightOfTheSea]

Mihawk has no haki (not just coc not even fucking basic haki)

Lmfao

Then again people were denying Kuma had haki till he used it, so it seems like some things never chang

What I want to know is why does Oda make all these Legendary figures Swordsmen, and directly link them to Luffy, and not the man who wants to be the WSS? Kind of messed up..... The man who rivals Ryuma. The Man who will surpass Gol D. Roger.

Oda is directly telling us that Luffy will be above all the Strongest Swordsmen who ever lived by EoS..... Wild...

Don't know where you get the % and normal swords from.
Anyway once again the only thing we know is if you conform to a certain style or outright say what you are,then you can be categorized.

Roger,Rayleigh,Shanks seem to belong to the exact same fighting style set but until someone says they are swordsmen in the manga,my mind is open about them.

Zoro,pre-skip Kaku,Mihawk,Oden, Ryuuma have already clearly been categorized as swordsmen in the manga for instance.

Have you seen roger Shanks and rayleigh use other thing that is not the sword and please don't bring the "hakiman" crap
With the % I meant characters like big mom and kizaru they have other abilities that not swordsmen

I haven't and don't worry,I am not bringing hakimanship meme into this.

Now the fact they haven't shown any other thing isn't confirmation they're swordsmen tbh.
They actually need to say they are or called such by other characters in the manga.

You're in your right to assume they are since they've not shown any other thing,nothing wrong with that but I'm open-minded about what they truly are until confirmed.

Not manga but other canon material has call them swordsmen like the Ussop gallery and something about Shanks VC If I remember....
Also games and this was sold in japan last year

This is all good but the manga has priority and the last word on everything so I'll wait.

No problem with you(and many others) having a definite stance on this though.

Shanks already got mentioned when Mihawk Bounty that Mihawk sword skill is superior to Shanks ( by Brannew )
Roger kinda already too since he name his own son the same as his beloved blade ( ACE and its one of Saijo same as Murakumo and Yoru ) and we haven't see he doing much else than using his sword.
Ray kinda given too.

So far that we seen this 3 guy is using swords hence why they are swordsman.
They might had inferior style or tech against the like of Zoro and Mihawk, but they had their own technique.
Just like how my country handle swords or knife against Japan, MidEast or Western swordstyle technique.
Different people, Different style technique, but the same category which is Swordsman.

Luffy already surpassed ryuma at Wano

So they're right, Luffy gonna surpass swordsman Roger too

 

[Cruxroux]

No
Swordsmen in one piece
1 50% or more of their attacks depends on swords
2 they have normal swords
Roger had both
King said that because eventhough he used his "sword" 50% or more that wasn't a sword it's a swordbreak

I noticed in PW4, that his sword's handle had the same texture as a katana does. Which is weird.

 

[SkySanji]

Roger is a hakiman who relies on raw power like Shanks, whereas Mihawk/Vista are skillmen who rely on swordskill and finesse.

Yes Mihawk and Vista don't use haki

Mihawk and shanks were shaking new world with iron bars.

It's like that in the manga too

 

[Johnny B. Decent]

It's like that in the manga too

I can't remember the exact name for it, but they use fish skin that's wrapped around the handle of a katana, which gives it those diamond shapes.

But his sword is a cutlass. So, maybe Roger's dark secret was he was a weeaboo. :P

Is this really a hot take? Luffy will undoubtedly surpass Roger in strength by the end of the series, so this should be expected.

If Zoro ends up surpassing Roger, which is definitely a possibility, then it just means that the powercreep for Luffy is gonna be insane.

I'm not wrong with that statement you know
Try to debunk it instead of insulting

Wait that wasn't for you.
I qouted the wrong post.

Luffy didn't surpass Ryuma

 

[Ninjashadow0209]

If Luffy pick up a Sword and uses to enhance his powers and Haki, him will be a Swordsman?
