Powers & Abilities Why Mihawk's swordsmanship is the greatest

And until this stops being headcanon, Zoro is the ONE AND ONLY decider of how this works
Zoro’s idea of what a WSS is and Zoro’s idea of how the WSS title is acquired… these are the only ideas that matter about this
If this is frustrating, blame Oda for wasting 1000 chapters giving zero fucks to explain anything

Zoro is not the sole decider. Mihawk exists, and therefore needs to be beaten in order for Zoro to claim the title. But if Mihawk fell down a flight of steps and died, that doesn't mean Zoros dream is over. By EoS he would be regarded as the WSS one way or another. Zoro dreamed of being the WSS as a child, long before he ever knew Mihawk existed.

Tbf Mihawk's VC also states that he ruthlessly fought competitors until there was none left.
"He trained ruthlessly challenging more and more powerful foes, until he had no more worthy challengers."
Artur is pretty shit at T/L but i remember seeing multiple t/l say the same thing.

But we are not talking about lifting weights. We are talking about cutting an island vs cutting a continent.
So now your saying, it doesn't matter who can cut the Continent, because the Island cutter can be stronger right?
So what could make the Island cutter stronger? Perhaps being a better fighter?

There is no way Zoro doesn’t fight for the title
if you want to talk about Shiryu backstabbing mihawk then fine. Shiryu will be WSS and Zoro will fight him
if Shiryu backstabs Mihawk and then Runs into S-Hawk and S-Hawk kills Shiryu, then Zoro will fight S-hawk
if Shiryu bacskstabs Mihawk, then S-Hawk kills Shiryu, then Greenbull kills S-Hawk, then Samurai Ghandi kills Greenbull, Zoro will fight Samurai Ghandi
outside of the fact that this is a Shonen manga, Oda has made it clear that Zoro has to win in combat for his dream to be achieved
There is no alternative way this plays out. Zoro WILL NOT be WSS via default, or Mihawk just decides Zoro is WSS without fighting or Zoro cuts a big rock and that’s the rock that only the WSS can cut (yet Mihawk never cut it and he is WSS)
no. It will be a fight. Because Oda has not promised or set up any other way.

@ConquistadoR
Oda should probably ACTUALLY PUT THIS IN THE MANGA

Well we all know that Oda won't write such an absurb scenario such as Mihawk dying prematurely before losing in a fight so there's no point of using such a hypothetical as an arguement at the end of the day. Anyways as @ConquistadoR posted Mihawk has went all over the world fighting all the notable swordsman he could find and beaten them (although he never went to Wano which makes that a lie, but let's ignore that mark on Mihawk's lore for now), and Zoro's goal is to defeat the man that beat the men, therefore we can conclude that the only way to become the WSS is to be the strongest swordsman. Any other idea is pure headcanon.
And btw the reason Mihawk beat Zoro at the Baratie was simply because he was way physically stronger than Zoro. Mihawk's the same guy that can send icebergs to the stratophere, turning the whole thing into mere particles soon after. No showcase of Mihawk's superior skill has been showcased in that fight.
