#ONEPIECE1182
So the World Government fears the existence of the Sea God Poseidon huh? And we even have Poseidon (Shirahoshi) in this era.
Like I said, Imu only fears three existences Joyboy, Davy Jones and Poseidon.
@mihaawkkk@codedfate ur going circular, the only way greatest and strongest mean the same thing is by using the superlative.
As in representing the maximal quality of something, all this means is he the number one among swordsman because he has the greatest skill among them all.
@mihaawkkk@codedfate ur right because it's superlative, so it has nothing to do with combat superiority directly.
But it isnt the same sense because its not even saying they're the same type of swordsman one is a class and the other is your specified level of skill.
@mihaawkkk@codedfate actually the name and reality thing is not for sekai saikyo no kenshi but rather sekai ichi no dai kengou shanks is not a kengou or dai kengou but rather a ken no tatsujin.
also no why doesnt that just imply Shanks is stronger like his vivre card, status and feats support?
@mbdd123@Valfuric_ he wasnt targeting them, also these are dudes bathing in wbs conq constantly and yet still a good amount was knocked out regardless, this is his passive coc not his active coc.
@PPlayerch6d@Clutch187_@PartysBarmaid Zoro never said his dream was sekai saikyo no kenshi tho he said it is sekai ichi no dai kengou. which is also the only thing mihawk is said to have in name and reality, mihawk just happens to be both. the distinction is not every kenshi follows the way of the sword.
@PPlayerch6d Haki is not apart of sword skill apart from armament haki.
If it was Zoro would have been taught he has supreme kings by Mihawk when he asked mihawk to learn the way of the sword, also when he uses haki+swordsmanship it wouldn't be called waza/chikara , it'd be called kengi,3
@PPlayerch6d@Clutch187_@PartysBarmaid He can destroy and maintain world balance meaning he is capable of defeating mihawk, we have never been told mihawk can beat Shanks and he hasnt for a weaker Shanks, he can defeat blackbeard something we've been told isnt possible of mihawk.
(2)
@PPlayerch6d@Clutch187_@PartysBarmaid He has several actually (He can become pirate king) something mihawk thinks is harder than surpassing him. he captured Loki something that puts him above his former self that was equal to mihawk, he met a placement equal to wb something mihawk admits he doesnt do, (p1)
@ry00ne@Jackboysgg Yes, because we've already been told Shanks doesnt stick to traditional forms and techniques which is what establishes you to have a fighting style of a swordsman. So I have no reason to believe Mihawk is stronger when actually we've been told mihawk doesnt meet realms of Shanks
@PPlayerch6d actually he said he's "doesn't settle things with one armed has beens" which makes him a duck.
both times mihawk's duck mihawk is the one who dodged so he's the one who has to prove he is worth it not the other way around.
@PPlayerch6d@Clutch187_@PartysBarmaid also its literally stated in a databook and the ace novel that shanks was mihawks equal when he had the title so that isnt even true. Its just like any fighting championship you can be equal or better than the person who holds the belt but you wont be champion unless they're beat
@PPlayerch6d@Clutch187_@PartysBarmaid except we have statements of shanks fighting multiple top tiers outside of mihawk and statements of him being stronger?
@_adahn@Omnisirese@Neos543 the point is u dont need haki to gauge someone's strength since some people have the natural instincts to do this, even stated by zoro this is enhanced further through a life and death situation which Luffy was in.
