General & Others Why Shanks didn't went after OP when Kaido, BM and WB was there?

#41
And why would that be? The only reason it occured at Wano was purely due to circumstantial plot as BM was pissed at Luffy.

Seems like a lot of guesswork is being done to justify why Shanks didnt go after One Piece when he himself stated he going to wasnt "yet" as a young man to Buggy.

Odd slander
No guesswork. Yonkos are in a stalemate because of this very reason. Also Kaido wanted to attack WB when WB went to fight marines for example

Okay bro, so then Kaido couldnt do the same thing lol. None of them can.

That wasnt even the point of my response. We learned literally last chapter that Shanks did not intend to go after One Piece as a young man. This means that he became a Yonko and has not yet made an attempt until Luffy became a Yonko himself.

Its not about what Shanks can and cant do. Its about intent behind the goal, which we do not know yet.

That is the point. I never said Kaido can. Now buggy is a clown and Luffy is indirectly on shanks side. BB is the only real challenge.
And yet again, this is MY point. This is purely happenstance based in Luffy's status. And Buggy has Mihawk (and who knows who else they gain in the end).

And Luffy is not on Shanks' side lol. They want to fight each other, its been explained in the manga several times.

If shanks is fighting BB then luffy won't back stab shanks is what I mean. I doubt even mihawk will
Bro, again, this isnt the point of the conversation lmao.

You quoted me starting some nonsense that had nothing to do with what I posted. And at Marineford, Shanks was willing to fight everyone, not just Blackbeard, so this point is moot.

You saying its due to joyboy which can be correct but ignoring that there were other yonkos who could jump on him lol. Yonkos are in deadlock where now if shanks tries to attack BB , at least luffy won't attack from behind. Its not that shanks can't challenge others but he is not braindead to not know that other yonko can't jump on him.

And again, you are circumstantially acting like this is what Shanks' intent is.

1082 already proves this shit wrong. He was waiting for someone/something to happen. There is a longer plan at play here. It has nothing to do with fighting other Yonko for one piece.

Hell, do we sit here and blame Whitebeard too? He literally did not care about One Piece, he just wanted a family. So whats your point here?

Lol it proved nothing. All it says is that kid shanks at that time was not interested in OP

WB had no interest in OP period so I don't know what point you are making

So whats the difference? If both were not interested in OP for decades and we clearly know Shanks has hidden motives for joining the race now that have to do with Luffy/Nika, why are we circumstantially calling one pirate a bitch and not the other?

You obviously know the reason Shanks not going after One Piece had nothing to do with BM/Kaido/WB being factors, so why even have this argument to begin with?

Coz it's stupid to attack either BM or Kaido with the forces he currently has. Even BB's bum crew, before Kuzan, would leave Shanks in a vulnerable position for attacks from Kaido or Big Mom. He's being smart about it.
 
#55
It can be excused with a "he was waiting for Luffy", afterall the whole world did basically nothing for 2 years waiting for the child of the prophecy to come back. And when he did we have now in the span of few weeks in OP time an apocalypse (yonkos falling and rising, shiki abolsihed, reveries, island erased). Also he most likely, just like WB, has no interest in the one piece.

Other yonkos were no doubt deterrent. That is the point of deadlock. Otherwise he could simply collect poneglyphs by himself and wait for luffy to become a yonko himself.

No. You simply ignoring the concept of yonko stalemate

The "concept" of a Yonko stalemate isnt even clearly defined outside of everyonr being relatively equal in power and yet again, you are arguing about something that actually has never been confirmed to play a factor lol.
