Character Discussion Shanks has to be a Holy Knight because this chapter deals with the events of the Reverie

#1
Everything that happened this chapter is connected to the Reverie and what happened there

What we got in the Reverie was a scene of Shanks talking to the Gorosei with no connection to anything else that was going on at the time

There was no reason to show Shanks in the Reverie Arc when from our perspective at the time he had 0 connection to it.

If we take the scene and now this silhouette it makes sense to why we saw him on his own without his crew.
