Worlds Strongest Swordsman was always a superior title to Yonko.

1 is literally a title of strength, "World STRONGEST". The other is a title were sure you do need to be strong (not the strongest in anything bare in mind) but also need to have a big enough crew, either in numbers or strength (or both), have territories and influence in them regions.

Clear cut example is the weak gag character Buggy becoming one, because of his actions in "recruiting" (politics at work) Mihawk & Crocodile. No Strength was ever mentioned in Brannew's reason of him becoming a yonko.

Lastly, none of the Yonko (previous or current) would've ever become a yonko with strength alone (even Whitebeard & Kaido with their World's Strongest titles). Therefore WS > Yonko
 
Buggy is a yonko because the world government thinks hes stronger and in control of mihawk and crocodile tho

Mihawk even admitting that with buggy getting credited as an emperor means all the attention is gonna be on him with the wg bothering him and crocodile significantly less

The previous Yonkos had years to build up their bounties and become huge threats to the world. Nobody can become a Yonko on their own. It requires at least strength, a powerful crew, and territory.

While Mihawk bounty is just based on his strength alone. He hasn't had an active bounty for years. The only reason Mihawk even received a bounty was because he was warlord and program was canceled so they had to give him a bounty.

It's crazy that the marines and world government considers Mihawk to be that big of a threat by him just existing.
 
I feel like the titles infer different things, atleast not the exact same things. World's Strongest Swordsman is exactly that, the strongest Swordsman, Emperor title involves having resources, being perceived as formidable whether due to the recognition of your subordinates or your own strength and being capable of maintaining some sort of balance.

Whitebeard and Kaido have World's Strongest titles too so it seems weird to say WSS>Emperor when Emperor entails other significant achievements and doesn't limit the Emperor. If the point is that an Emperor can be weaker than Mihawk, that's obvious, they can be weaker than each other. There's no grand point being made that changes things.

Prestigious? Sounds quite subjective and I'm not sure.

Yeah
Mihawk has done more things than buggy when it comes to going up against the marines/world government. Possibly even beating a past admiral or something

When it comes to swordsmanship yeah
Back in the day with roger yeah

You can definitely believe that

Swordsmanship = Strength
Wg are not telling you Mihawk was once above Shanks they are saying Mihawk is now stronger Swordsman aka stronger Haki user than Shanks

His bounty is strictly due to strength and since 3 billion luffy has an army behind him Mihawk should be stronger than Luffy and his entire crew.

They said that he has greater sword skill if hes truly overall stronger we just gotta wait to find out imo

He got his bounty due to his known feats of strength and danger to the world government. So it encompasses everything they know about him. Including him being a member of cross guild just like crocodile most likely

Ok lol

What exactly is the difference lol
Imagine the man given 3.6 billion for his strenght when yonko in general worth no more than 1.5 billion for their strength and they are clearly not talking about him being overall stronger

**** they literally say he's wss
Imagine coping to such a high level

Mere Yonko being above WSS lmao

I actually do
Luffy and Zoro can only push Kaido to high diff individually and imo Mihawk high diffs Kaido.

Mihawk is at worst equal to Roger imo
And Roger should be able to solo Luffy and Zoro.

Rest of the crew is not a factor at all.

That's definitely an opinion

Yes mihawk is wss something we've always known

The world government thinks mihawk works under buggy someone they made an emperor. Mihawk sayin due to buggy getting all the credit all the attention is gonna be on buggy not himself or crocodile

Mihawks that strong they gave him a higher bounty than someone they think controls him and stands shoulder to shoulder with shanks
 
And they used an example there to elucidate what they are talking about using the term for "Great Politicians" to prove their point.


WSM & WSC being the Strongest in their respective areas while also being the Greatest Pirates does not imply in any way that all the Greatest Pirates are also "the Strongest".
The term "Yonko" being a term of influence & not a measure of strength has been proven using two examples in the manga already - Teach & Buggy.

Teach only became a Yonko after beating Marco & conquering territories, meaning strength alone is not enough.



Buggy became a Yonko because he had two powerful men, one of whom is worth more than Buggy himself, under him.

Individual strength of course helps, but without a crew and territories, even if one was the strongest of all time in OP one wouldn't be an Emperor. And that is what the translator said as well.
Individual power not only helps, it is part of the rule. Not even Buggy is excluded since the marines literally said that rumors says he is as strong as Shanks so he is very dangerous. They also said he had enough power to make Crocodile and Mihawk his subordinates. We know the truth, but to the WG they really believe Buggy is that strong.
