definitely. I think kol most of the time has really good power scaling takes, as controversial as that might be. but when it comes to shanks? forget it. Personally I don't even see a solid reason to put shanks particularly above someone like Kaido, he might even be weaker than kaido tbh, he's just a yonko level dude, and we've never seen him actually fight. All his feats are just haki feats, which is impressive, but it doesn't suddenly mean he's the strongest in the verse lol, it's just yonko level haki man feats.
Favorite part was him being adamant that Ray said he couldn’t beat Blackbeard……meanwhile the panel slow pans over to him basically just saying, “Lucky that didn’t have to turn into a fight”
Yo bro alot of times you make sense, but I feel like whenever you say something that is false people just brush over it or don’t notice, luffy still got one shot it dosn’t matter if he is inraged or not, it was a fair 1v1 in which he got defeated by 1 attack.
Kol on Garp, WB and Akainu is weird. He made a video saying Gear 4 Luffy can beat WB in marineford. He then says Akainu is stronger than Gear 5 Luffy even though Akainu got destroyed by that same WB, which is what he's saying here... like make up your mind lol
@noir2024 I think Kol is future scaling with Akainu since he is going to be one of the final fights. Kol also thinks Akain is the new Garp and Garp was throwing hands with Roger.
Brago was spitting.. Just thinking about this powerscaling is so stupid, most of these people Kol talking about are relative enough to have an actual fight, but he doesn’t factor in abilities or anything, it’s just “naw bro my dudes power level is stronger than every character i have ranked below”
The idea that Shanks is just obscenely stronger than Mihawk defies literally everything the story tells you unless Shanks is scratching the back of your throat.
@@onomatopoeia7219 hm? I honestly regard mihawk as a well rounded fighter, he’s got both range and close combat, he isn’t crippled by water, even if he does lose his sword, he probably also has a no sword style somewhere in his arsenal, what could his weaknesses be?
Shanks fans will simultaneously use the skill argument and cut out the second half of the marines line. The whole quote of the marine in that panel was "with greater sword skill than even Red Hair the Emperor. As the strongest swordsman in the world, he is worth 3.59 billion berries!"." - word for word what the marine says but they cut half of it out.
How are you saying "word for word" and then quoting wrong. 😂😂😂 the marine guy says he is a swordsman who's swordskill surpasses that of even red hair shanks.... very important distinction here. Ur trying to make it seem like the marine guy said mihawk is stronger.... he specifically only stated his swordskill surpasses shanks... don't go around misquoting pretending it's source material
Black beard is the best planner and doesn’t fight fair. Shanks could likely win under standard conditions. But black beard will win when he’s ready and planned for it. Maybe his crew is supposed to counter shanks crew
Brave of you to assume we would ever see a “ result “ there’s no result mihawk and shanks will never fight on screen at least not in the current timeline
@@Fusion237bro Shanks is golden boy of one piece , Oda is Shanks We fans will not even buy the manga copies ,resulting in Oda being forced to make Shanks win 🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The instant Oda revealed Mihawk's bounty to be relative to Shanks' it was over. It was clear throughout the entire series that Oda was setting up Shanks and Mihawk to be relative, and the bounty reveal was the straw that broke the camel's back for me.
@@Kxsol1 Close in strength? Nooo... 🥴🫠 People have to give that Zoro nonsense up. Zoro is clearly below Luffy, given how Luffy low-diffed Lucci like he was benching carrots, and Zoro took over 10 chapters to end the affair. Oda seemed to go out of his way to demonstrate this. Luffy vs. Kaido contrasted with Zoro vs. King should already end the debate 💀 And Shanks is clearly far above Mihawk, as portrayed by Oda multiple times. Shanks showing up at Marineford ended the fight, whereas Mihawk was there from the beginning and no one was terrified. He challenged Whitebeard and stood down, whereas Shanks merely clashed Haki with him, the sky split, and everyone was shook. Greenbull was terrified just sensing Shanks' conqueror's haki, and Mihawk got chased off of his island by marines, and there weren't even any admirals on the incoming ship. Lastly, Shanks just strolled into Marijoa and had a causal audience with the Gorosei, and if Mihawk tried that, he'd be lucky to be as fast as Sabo on the escape. Shanks and Mihawk are NOT the same... 😬 Please sober up!
When we're in the ACTUAL final arc and Oda starts writing Shanks like a normal character instead of a hype tool it's gonna be so funny to see the community melt downs
Yeah we know oda is the biggest shanks glazer considering that's quite literally his favorite character, but he's finna be written like a "normal character" yeah you made sense with that one 💀
Imagine if Zoro meets Shanks and tells him his goal is to be the worlds strongest swordsman and Shanks response is "Thats a harder goal then even surpassing me." Mirroring Mihawk saying becoming Pirate King is harder than surpassing him.
Funny how the mihawk fangirls haven't responded to this comment lol. they think everyone wants to have the title of WSS and they sneak in Zoro not fighting Shanks if Shanks is stronger than mihawk as pointless not considering the fact that Zoro has his own dreams and Shanks has his own dreams and mihawk actually holds title and he's a pure swordsman so why the heck would Zoro go after Shanks even if he's stronger than mihawk... would Shanks abandon his goals just to contest for WSS title with Zoro or mihawk?? Lol..they either lack comprehension or they just twist the narrative to suit their agenda.
Its funny how zoro and sanji are EQUAL in strength because of how they are portrayed as rivals and equals (despite the fact that zoro is clearly stronger) which is why he placed EOS Zoro and Sanji at #7 and #8, but the he doesnt apply the same rival arguement to Mihawk and Shanks with Shanks at #1 and Mihawak being #9 in Kol's rankings.
Sadly you cant say they are rivals now. They were past rivals but now they both off doing their own things. It only makes sense if they still fighting to better each other like zoro and sanji.
@@billylo1992 We are talking about portrayal tho. Why would Oda write that in if Shanks and Mihawk were in a Different League in strength? Obviously its implied that they are on the same tier, I think shanks is still stronger, but the way that Mihawk is named next to shanks by Oda means something
Zoro and Sanji aren’t portrayed as RIVALS? They aren’t fighting against each other to test who’s stronger. They act like brothers and get into heated arguments, but that’s it. Zoro has the dream of becoming the STRONGEST SWORDSMAN OF THE WORLD! Sanji wants to find the all blue. These two dreams couldn’t be more different from another. One is power driven the other is based on creativity and the love for food and cooking. Sanji will never be as strong of a fighter like Zoro, because he doesn’t want/need to! And that’s ok! He’s still super important for Luffy and the crew. I don’t get where this stupid power scaling comparison between the two comes from
Naw the biggest difference is plot, Zoro is not that much stronger than him. And I say plot because Zoro said “he won’t lose again”. When the strawhats are in sticky situations Zoro is nowhere to be found meanwhile heat gain sanji fights someone who is clearly stronger than Zoro at the time. Sanji fought Doffy by himself, so you gotta ask yourself this……..what is Zoro doing in Sanji’s place against an elder and an admiral? Not a damn thing and we know it. Oda just saves Zoro from getting embarrassed that’s all that is…
@@joeycash9739Zoro was literally about to fight doffy then fought someone way stronger than doffy himself there ,fuji Wtf you talking Sanji has been never useful in post time skip
Rayleigh doesn't have a devil fruit, speed blitzed Kizaru pre timeskip and has COC and is a legendary swordman. He ain't getting caught by the Devil Fruit catching technique. He'd see Blaakbeard's attacks and counter them with Haki. At that point its a battle of who can take more hits.
I don't understand how we wank Shanks so hard, but we downplay Mihawk( The rival to Shanks) and Blackbeard(the man who scarred shanks with no devil fruits.) Shanks is wicked strong and top 3, but the gap between Shanks and everyone else isn't gonna be as massive as everyone makes it out to be. Because Blackbeard scarred Shanks with no devil fruits and he was younger, plus Shanks is missing an arm since fighting Blackbeard last. Now, I'm not saying Shanks hasn't gotten stronger, but Shanks had rivals who have gotten much stronger since he feuded with when he was younger. Blackbeard has 2 devil fruits since he scarred Shanks. Kaido is still above Shanks to me, but the gap between Kaido and Shanks isn't massive just like the gap between Shanks and the other major Yonko isn't as massive. However the admirals don't look too amazing after Egghead and Akainu is the only hope for that agenda.
@@Fusion237 I believe Shanks is the strongest conquerors haki user in the verse with his conquerors haki being applied to everything he does by the looks of it. Mihawk seems like he mastered armament haki and is someone who is just as dangerous just in a different area and that is swordplay. Kaido is stronger due to his durability, endurance, pure strength, having advanced conquerors, and his versatility with his devil fruit. I do have Shanks barely over Big Mom.
Bro what? Mihawk has never tried ever. He has zero stake in the existing stories and has acted accordingly. How the hell does current luffy beat an eos opponent? Based on feats? Mihawk hasn’t even fought yet. How the hell do you even say Mihawk has a single stat better the shanks but losses in everything else when he has a black blade when Shanks doesn’t? When he’s the strongest swordsman and shanks isn’t? The most important skill for a swordsman is sword skill because that is what they use to fight. Shanks jeed to have skills with a blade to be strong he isn’t going to go beat Kaido with raw Haki that doesn’t make sense. Luffy could barely do it with a inflated fist the size of a small island that would literally hit the guy twice. It was compacted for max power and that still barely did it. Yet somehow Shanks could beat that off of raw Haki. Not using his swordsman ship which is his main form of combat as there is no such thing as Haki warfare. Hell even if shanks has better coq then Mihawk definitely has better coa because he has a Black Blade. How the hell would he be the strongest swordsman if Shanks had better every stat? Literally makes Zero sense.
The fact remains that when it comes to Mihawk it is very unclear how powerful he is, there is a lot of references to his lack of achievement in Marineford but I don't really see the motivation for Mihawk within the war especially with Sengoku previous surprise of him attending the shichibukai summons as well as the later information of him being the Marine Hunter, as for Kaido's mythical top 5 dead or alive, it could be as simply as that he never fought Mihawk hence his mission from the list. But I do think there is clear feat that Mihawk (admittedly yet to be confirmed) which is that he most likely turned Yoru into a black blade which in my head canon means he has a mastery of swordsmanship & armament haki comparable to that of Ryuuma the sword god as that is the only other permanent black blade with seen in the story so far which I take that he is at very least a step over Oden in terms of mastery which would mean he is at least capable of hurting Kaido. I think the way the story is going, Mihawk like Shanks & Blackbeard will be amongst the final players have serious strength and I think Oda-sensei will most definitely ensure to reflect his power level accordingly.
Haki is a big part of swordsmanship if shanks was that far ahead mihawks swordskill wouldn't make a difference you lot are clowning believing anything different, same with blackbeard vs Rayleigh if it were a low diff in blackbeard favor he'd have taken the fight not backed down like he did. So biased towards your preferred characters I think the entire context of the story and characters actual levels go over your heads
@@akainuthegoat6312 agreed dude, Mihawk is the only man to walk into shanks turf and tell an him he's not worthy of a fight everyone else shits bricks and backs down
True. In order to be a great swordsman, you need haki. Mihawk himself told Zoro it's a shame to have nicks on your sword (therefore, coat your sword with haki). And I find it so strange that guys like kol say shanks has better feats (so far, only two - conquerors zoom call, and divine departure), but here's the thing - divine departure is a sword skill, and since shanks glazers concede Mihawk's swordplay is better than shanks', it stands to reason that the divine departure on kidd also counts as a feat for Mihawk, and given that his sword skills > shanks, then Mihawk could also do the same thing but better.
Shanks turned off BB’s bloodlust in Marineford, not Mihawk •Doffy looks at Mihawk as an equal even if they aren’t. •Law knew taking down an emperor is the highest regard Narratively you can argue whether one is stronger than the other, but in verse Mihawk is not closely as respected as Shanks. Even tho you can say that’s bad writing on Oda’s part
Simply not true. Mihawk was respected enough in verse that the entirety of Marineford stopped to watch his attack. Literally no one in the One Piece verse questions whether Mihawk should have the title. It's a casual fact to them that he is the World's Strongest Swordsman. If you asked anyone in the One Piece verse "who is the strongest swordsman alive?" you wouldn't get a political answer like "Well Mihawk has the title but Shanks is overall stronger due to haki". You would unanimously get one answer: "Mihawk".
First one is a terrible example and the second one is horrendous headcannon about Doffy. Mihawk never bothered fighting Blackbeard or anyone on his crew, even the ones we know for certain he'd take out quickly. Shanks on the other hand came with his entire crew and directly approached Blackbeard threatening him. The two are way too different to compare. Even if Blackbeard viewed Mihawk as stronger than Shanks, an entire fresh Yonko crew is just simply a bigger deal.
@@CameronkAKthat title means nothing in terms of pure strength physically and haki wise so just stop the strongest swordsman title is the most overrated title in one piece
You cant call mihawk a fraud if he sits around all day and then question why he does it. He has the ONE of the strongest blades and turned it black and made it the strongest. That’s literally because he IS the strongest. Kaido did the same exact thing after he became the strongest with his powerful devil fruit. Not only that When shanks became an emperor Even HE said Whitebeard was the strongest man in the world. Its not that shanks is the Strongest its that his crew is the strongest on the sea and the gap isnt big between them. Luffy said he wanted a crew stronger than the red haired pirates any ways.
Zoro vs Kaido he gets 2 taped same thing happens to Raleigh he’s first commander level and probably the weakest out of all 1st commanders what r y’all smoking
@@carmelosmith8782 yes I am zoro durabillity smokes Raleigh’s anyday he might not have attack power that raleigh does but this about durability would Raleigh survive the double yonko blow zoro took probably not Raleigh’s gets cooked by Blackbeard just like any other first commander in the story would
Most of the community doesn't understand Mihawk narrative position in the plot itself, they think that cause Luffy is the MC that means that Shanks being one of the people he wants to surpass must be stronger. But they are missing out on the fact that Luffy wants to not only go beyond Shanks but even the Pirate King himself. I feel that Mihawk is currently equal very much Shanks at the moment and that does not ruined the plot of Luffy at all, mainly being Luffy will surpass all anyway. If the current Shanks is able to defeat the current Mihawk in the story that would make Shanks the strongest swordsmen in the world not Mihawk (Yes Shanks is a swordsmen). But that isn't the case, people don't understand that it would be a complete disservice to Zoro's dream narrative wise, Oda will never write such a cheap play in this regard. Am very much aware that this isn't Zoro Piece and Mihawk being Shanks equal in strength will not conflict with Luffy being the MC. Zoro only wants to surpass Mihawk and once that is done he has achieve his goal, but again Luffy is going beyond that. Is also very strange that people put something like swordsmanship in a completely separate category or one of it contributing to overall strength, when One Piece power scaling is so nuance. Oda has never written in the story one is more skilled then the other but not stronger then such, in-fact he has used both in conjunction literally meaning the same thing, he doesn't have time to go through all the technical details in power scaling especially something like skill or overall power. Another good example will be Zoro himself, if skill is a one of the category that makes up the overall strength of a combatant. That would mean that current Zoro will need keep increasing his skill when he finally confronts Mihawk. But never once has Zoro ever in the story refer to leaning a new sword technique to be stronger or beat his opponent, No all he ever does is be better in overall power. His latest battle with King is a prime example. He literally learn advanced COC to win and make his swords technique stronger with it.
shanks glazing is insane. any emperor would have scared greenbull (he says we wouldn't be there if kaido was there). Kid is obviously not worth the 3 billion. Blackbeard is known to live on pirate island so shanks could have just pulled up but instead went to snitch on him to his dads bosses, aslo he was so scared of BB he went to warn WB of him. We see zoro improve as a swords-man with haki, it makes no sense to assume shanks haki clears mihawk.
Bb is not known to live on pirate island or be there all the time your a clown there’s a crap ton of context missing clown they never said whether if shanks did or did not check pirate island lol was bb on pirate island when he fought law? No he wasn’t for all we know shanks went there multiple times when he just so happened to not be there your a clown shut up

Lol a man titled the strongest swordsman in the verse is weaker than a one-armed man also fighting with a sword. lol You will only see that kind of logic here. Lol let's wait and see.
People placing Hawkeye so much further bellow Shanks is crazy at worst they should be evenly matched. People associate Notoriety = Power just because shanks has clout and influence within the world / world government doesn't equate to him being stronger then Hawkeye. Outside of his recent chapter as far as power scaling goes and the non - cannon film red Shanks hasn't showcased any more the Hawkeye has in the series outside of "Divine Departure" & an impressive Haki feat in the end of Wano. We've never seen Hawkeye go all out in a fight and as a matter of fact haven't seen Hawkeye fight since Marineford where in the series Haki was still a fairly new concept (narratively) which is why we didn't even see White beard showcase any Haki himself (although it was surely there) it wasn't properly represented. As far as Notoriety goes Hawkeye has stated he just wants to live a quiet life. Hence why he's hiding behind buggy in Crossguild.

22:38 Law is around the level of Kidd Law mid diff to high diff lost to Blackbeard WITH HIS CREW Raleigh is around that level by the statements yall said, So then Raleigh while he would lose, is a HIGH DIFF for blackbeard alone
KoL: tries to make a point under a "on a silver platter" extremely bias situation so that only durability matters--and ignores any other attributes Rayleigh has With that logic, Roger gets neg diffed by the two randos that decapitated him
The main problem, as always, is that OP powerscaling is completely broken because of how Oda writes. That being said, I do think that there are more reasons than not to think that Mihawk vs Shanks is an extreme fight for either of them: *Both are similarly built (even though physical appearance is not 1 to 1 in fiction, you can have skinny characters that are stronger than bigger characters) *Both are around the same age *Both are swordsman *Both only have their skills, physical stats and haki (no DF). *Both are 100% human (at least that we know, so no special ability related to another race) *Both excell at observation (Mihawk's title "hawk eye" / his first draft title "Clairboyant") (Shanks's extreme future sight) Considering all that, Mihawk has two arms, and Shanks only one. Mihawk has a black blade, Shanks does not. Mihawk is better at swordplay (even though I personally don't value that a lot because sword skill is non-existent in OP, Oda never specified what constitutes "sword skill"). Shanks most definitely has better Conquerors than Mihawk. So none of them have a HUGE advantage over the other, at least from what we've seen till now. It's NOT like Shanks has Akainu's fruit, or Mihawk has been stated to rely only on regular swordplay and does not have haki. Both should be around the same level.
Also, the video starts by saying that Zoro needs to seriously catch up to current Luffy, which I do agree with, current Luffy is BROKEN! But take into consideration that an OLD Rayleigh scared a Yonko in his prime. So I have faith that PRIME "World Strongest Swordsman & Right Hand of the Pirate King" Roronoa Zoro is going to be EASILY Yonko level at that point.
Shanks and Mihawk's character portrayal difference is just so wide, and that's what ultimately makes me put Shanks a lot higher. Cope all you want, but to me character portrayal and significance means everything.
And Its funny how people Use the argument that mihawk Will come as a later antagonist for zoro at the tail end of the series but that essentially makes zoro an MC his entire journey would be worthless
@@Greg12839 No one is arguing that Shanks wont be killed? Hashirama in Naruto is killed in battle, Netero from HxH was killed in battle, Whitebeard was killed in battle, yet all of them are remembered as GOATs of their respective series. Shanks will get the same treatment

By this logic you could say half the characters in the show have trash observation haki. Lets be fr real quick. Theres a reason we say observation works only when oda wants it to
People really need to stop acting like Mihawk beats Shanks. Mihawk is a force but he isnt Shanks. How anyone can read One Piece and come away with any opinion other than "Shanks is that guy" is beyond me. The feats, the way he talks, the way he walks, the way people react to him, THE WAY THE LIGHT TOUCHES HIM lets you know that Shanks is the pillar that others look up at and figure out how to move around

Mihawk is stronger than shanks, he is the worlds strongest swordsman in both name and actuality, Mihawk is a confirmed master in all forms of haki besides conquerors and that’s only because it hasn’t been confirmed yet, Mihawk is one of only two people in the series with a black blade which is the highest armament achievement shown thus far, his observation is powerful enough to see the events at levelly from his CASTLE, he rolls up on the red hair pirates like it’s no one’s business and states that no one else can surpass him, his bounty is relative to shanks with a crew and an armada and territories, and he is one of the only 3 in the verse with the title of STRONGEST. King is delusional. Finally, yes shanks is a swordsman.
Bro KOL needs to read the damn vivre card. It said Mihawk is the strongest swordsman in name and reality. Skill=Strength in one piece. King was yonko commander one by Kaido because he had better skill than queen. But he was also stronger. Rare L from KOL
If Shanks was that much more physically dominating than Mihawk, Mihawk wouldn't be viewed as the strongest swordsmen. The Marines know Shanks fought Kaido before arriving at Marineford, yet the Marines still view Mihawk as the greatest, that means to them fighting Kaido isn't outside of Mihawk's paygrade. Mihawk's title as World's Strongest is the only one that holds significant narrative weight, therefore that's the one we need to take the most seriously.
What Shanks did to the Kidds pirate, Mihawk did is as well in Romans volume towards Don Kreigs fleet with a single slash. If they duel often back the , that means theyre on par. Pretty sure Mihawk has kings haki and the same observation as Shanks, thats why their duel always ends up in a draw.

4:57 "BB killing Shanks is old headcanon" and how does he respond to that.....with his own headcanon that Shanks has to survive because he's mysterious lmao
BB didn’t want smoke with Rayleigh, an 80 year old man that quit fighting and being a pirate when he was 50. BB even haf his crew with him and still didn't want smoke. Ray is past his prime he would lose to BB high to extreme diff but he's dealing severe damage to BB. It may be the loss of a limb or a crazy scar. Think about it like this...the Navy knows exactly where Rayleigh is. They know the island he lives on and still never pulls up on him. They could surround the island whenever they want with troops but they know better.
The reason that mihawk has a lower bounty is because shanks has a whole grand fleet and he’s a yonko. Mihawk is a formal warlord who is apparently an “underling” to buggy. If Mihawk had a grand fleet I’d argue he’d have a higher bounty

People have to give that Zoro nonsense up.
Zoro is clearly below Luffy, given how Luffy low-diffed Lucci like he was benching carrots, and Zoro took over 10 chapters to end the affair. Oda seemed to go out of his way to demonstrate this. Luffy vs. Kaido contrasted with Zoro vs. King should already end the debate 💀
And Shanks is clearly far above Mihawk, as portrayed by Oda multiple times.
Shanks showing up at Marineford ended the fight, whereas Mihawk was there from the beginning and no one was terrified. He challenged Whitebeard and stood down, whereas Shanks merely clashed Haki with him, the sky split, and everyone was shook.
Greenbull was terrified just sensing Shanks' conqueror's haki, and Mihawk got chased off of his island by marines, and there weren't even any admirals on the incoming ship.
Lastly, Shanks just strolled into Marijoa and had a causal audience with the Gorosei, and if Mihawk tried that, he'd be lucky to be as fast as Sabo on the escape.
Shanks and Mihawk are NOT the same... 😬

We are talking about portrayal tho. Why would Oda write that in if Shanks and Mihawk were in a Different League in strength? Obviously its implied that they are on the same tier, I think shanks is still stronger, but the way that Mihawk is named next to shanks by Oda means something
Zoro and Sanji aren’t portrayed as RIVALS? They aren’t fighting against each other to test who’s stronger. They act like brothers and get into heated arguments, but that’s it. Zoro has the dream of becoming the STRONGEST SWORDSMAN OF THE WORLD! Sanji wants to find the all blue. These two dreams couldn’t be more different from another. One is power driven the other is based on creativity and the love for food and cooking. Sanji will never be as strong of a fighter like Zoro, because he doesn’t want/need to! And that’s ok! He’s still super important for Luffy and the crew. I don’t get where this stupid power scaling comparison between the two comes from
Naw the biggest difference is plot, Zoro is not that much stronger than him. And I say plot because Zoro said “he won’t lose again”. When the strawhats are in sticky situations Zoro is nowhere to be found meanwhile heat gain sanji fights someone who is clearly stronger than Zoro at the time.

Rayleigh doesn't have a devil fruit, speed blitzed Kizaru pre timeskip and has COC and is a legendary swordman. He ain't getting caught by the Devil Fruit catching technique. He'd see Blaakbeard's attacks and counter them with Haki. At that point its a battle of who can take more hits.
I don't understand how we wank Shanks so hard, but we downplay Mihawk( The rival to Shanks) and Blackbeard(the man who scarred shanks with no devil fruits.) Shanks is wicked strong and top 3, but the gap between Shanks and everyone else isn't gonna be as massive as everyone makes it out to be. Because Blackbeard scarred Shanks with no devil fruits and he was younger, plus Shanks is missing an arm since fighting Blackbeard last. Now, I'm not saying Shanks hasn't gotten stronger, but Shanks had rivals who have gotten much stronger since he feuded with when he was younger. Blackbeard has 2 devil fruits since he scarred Shanks. Kaido is still above Shanks to me, but the gap between Kaido and Shanks isn't massive just like the gap between Shanks and the other major Yonko isn't as massive. However the admirals don't look too amazing after Egghead and Akainu is the only hope for that agenda.

@@Supreme_Valentine I agree but I just think Mihawk also has it. I also have shanks barely over big mom
Bro what? Mihawk has never tried ever. He has zero stake in the existing stories and has acted accordingly. How the hell does current luffy beat an eos opponent? Based on feats? Mihawk hasn’t even fought yet. How the hell do you even say Mihawk has a single stat better the shanks but losses in everything else when he has a black blade when Shanks doesn’t? When he’s the strongest swordsman and shanks isn’t? The most important skill for a swordsman is sword skill because that is what they use to fight. Shanks jeed to have skills with a blade to be strong he isn’t going to go beat Kaido with raw Haki that doesn’t make sense. Luffy could barely do it with a inflated fist the size of a small island that would literally hit the guy twice. It was compacted for max power and that still barely did it. Yet somehow Shanks could beat that off of raw Haki. Not using his swordsman ship which is his main form of combat as there is no such thing as Haki warfare. Hell even if shanks has better coq then Mihawk definitely has better coa because he has a Black Blade. How the hell would he be the strongest swordsman if Shanks had better every stat? Literally makes Zero sense.
Mihawk does have feats... his feats was literally clashing with Vista. that's a feat. and along with rivalling a much younger shanks

@@arturw5556 easily they literally jumped garp and kuzan still took massive damage tf are you talking about?
Not a crazy take considering Luffy has put Kizaru down with 1 attack, if Rayleigh is equal to Kizaru then yes BB can two shot him.
The fact remains that when it comes to Mihawk it is very unclear how powerful he is, there is a lot of references to his lack of achievement in Marineford but I don't really see the motivation for Mihawk within the war especially with Sengoku previous surprise of him attending the shichibukai summons as well as the later information of him being the Marine Hunter, as for Kaido's mythical top 5 dead or alive, it could be as simply as that he never fought Mihawk hence his mission from the list. But I do think there is clear feat that Mihawk (admittedly yet to be confirmed) which is that he most likely turned Yoru into a black blade which in my head canon means he has a mastery of swordsmanship & armament haki comparable to that of Ryuuma the sword god as that is the only other permanent black blade with seen in the story so far which I take that he is at very least a step over Oden in terms of mastery which would mean he is at least capable of hurting Kaido.
I think the way the story is going, Mihawk like Shanks & Blackbeard will be amongst the final players have serious strength and I think Oda-sensei will most definitely ensure to reflect his power level accordingly.
Haki is a big part of swordsmanship if shanks was that far ahead mihawks swordskill wouldn't make a difference you lot are clowning believing anything different, same with blackbeard vs Rayleigh if it were a low diff in blackbeard favor he'd have taken the fight not backed down like he did. So biased towards your preferred characters I think the entire context of the story and characters actual levels go over your heads
we have not even seen Mihawk in a serious fight nothing shown put's Shanks over Mihawk.
@@akainuthegoat6312 agreed dude, Mihawk is the only man to walk into shanks turf and tell an him he's not worthy of a fight everyone else shits bricks and backs down
True. In order to be a great swordsman, you need haki. Mihawk himself told Zoro it's a shame to have nicks on your sword (therefore, coat your sword with haki).
And I find it so strange that guys like kol say shanks has better feats (so far, only two - conquerors zoom call, and divine departure), but here's the thing - divine departure is a sword skill, and since shanks glazers concede Mihawk's swordplay is better than shanks', it stands to reason that the divine departure on kidd also counts as a feat for Mihawk, and given that his sword skills > shanks, then Mihawk could also do the same thing but better.
Ngl ironically shanks might be the strongest opponent miwhawk has ever faced depending on how strong he was when they sparred
Saying Kid is as strong as Reyliegh is crazy
Shanks turned off BB’s bloodlust in Marineford, not Mihawk
•Doffy looks at Mihawk as an equal even if they aren’t.
•Law knew taking down an emperor is the highest regard
Narratively you can argue whether one is stronger than the other, but in verse Mihawk is not closely as respected as Shanks. Even tho you can say that’s bad writing on Oda’s part
Simply not true.
Mihawk was respected enough in verse that the entirety of Marineford stopped to watch his attack. Literally no one in the One Piece verse questions whether Mihawk should have the title. It's a casual fact to them that he is the World's Strongest Swordsman.
If you asked anyone in the One Piece verse "who is the strongest swordsman alive?" you wouldn't get a political answer like "Well Mihawk has the title but Shanks is overall stronger due to haki". You would unanimously get one answer: "Mihawk".
First one is a terrible example and the second one is horrendous headcannon about Doffy.
Mihawk never bothered fighting Blackbeard or anyone on his crew, even the ones we know for certain he'd take out quickly.
Shanks on the other hand came with his entire crew and directly approached Blackbeard threatening him.
The two are way too different to compare. Even if Blackbeard viewed Mihawk as stronger than Shanks, an entire fresh Yonko crew is just simply a bigger deal.
@MihawkTopOne does that mean blackbeard views akainu as a higher threat than shanks?
@@CameronkAKlame
@@CameronkAKthat title means nothing in terms of pure strength physically and haki wise so just stop the strongest swordsman title is the most overrated title in one piece
You cant call mihawk a fraud if he sits around all day and then question why he does it. He has the ONE of the strongest blades and turned it black and made it the strongest. That’s literally because he IS the strongest. Kaido did the same exact thing after he became the strongest with his powerful devil fruit. Not only that When shanks became an emperor Even HE said Whitebeard was the strongest man in the world. Its not that shanks is the Strongest its that his crew is the strongest on the sea and the gap isnt big between them.

Most of the community doesn't understand Mihawk narrative position in the plot itself, they think that cause Luffy is the MC that means that Shanks being one of the people he wants to surpass must be stronger. But they are missing out on the fact that Luffy wants to not only go beyond Shanks but even the Pirate King himself. I feel that Mihawk is currently equal very much Shanks at the moment and that does not ruined the plot of Luffy at all, mainly being Luffy will surpass all anyway. If the current Shanks is able to defeat the current Mihawk in the story that would make Shanks the strongest swordsmen in the world not Mihawk (Yes Shanks is a swordsmen). But that isn't the case, people don't understand that it would be a complete disservice to Zoro's dream narrative wise, Oda will never write such a cheap play in this regard. Am very much aware that this isn't Zoro Piece and Mihawk being Shanks equal in strength will not conflict with Luffy being the MC. Zoro only wants to surpass Mihawk and once that is done he has achieve his goal, but again Luffy is going beyond that. Is also very strange that people put something like swordsmanship in a completely separate category or one of it contributing to overall strength, when One Piece power scaling is so nuance. Oda has never written in the story one is more skilled then the other but not stronger then such, in-fact he has used both in conjunction literally meaning the same thing, he doesn't have time to go through all the technical details in power scaling especially something like skill or overall power. Another good example will be Zoro himself, if skill is a one of the category that makes up the overall strength of a combatant. That would mean that current Zoro will need keep increasing his skill when he finally confronts Mihawk. But never once has Zoro ever in the story refer to leaning a new sword technique to be stronger or beat his opponent, No all he ever does is be better in overall power. His latest battle with King is a prime example. He literally learn advanced COC to win and make his swords technique stronger with it.
shanks glazing is insane. any emperor would have scared greenbull (he says we wouldn't be there if kaido was there). Kid is obviously not worth the 3 billion. Blackbeard is known to live on pirate island so shanks could have just pulled up but instead went to snitch on him to his dads bosses, aslo he was so scared of BB he went to warn WB of him. We see zoro improve as a swords-man with haki, it makes no sense to assume shanks haki clears mihawk.

People placing Hawkeye so much further bellow Shanks is crazy at worst they should be evenly matched. People associate Notoriety = Power just because shanks has clout and influence within the world / world government doesn't equate to him being stronger then Hawkeye. Outside of his recent chapter as far as power scaling goes and the non - cannon film red Shanks hasn't showcased any more the Hawkeye has in the series outside of "Divine Departure" & an impressive Haki feat in the end of Wano. We've never seen Hawkeye go all out in a fight and as a matter of fact haven't seen Hawkeye fight since Marineford where in the series Haki was still a fairly new concept (narratively) which is why we didn't even see White beard showcase any Haki himself (although it was surely there) it wasn't properly represented.

@@worldbosspf1Fr lol
The main problem, as always, is that OP powerscaling is completely broken because of how Oda writes.
That being said, I do think that there are more reasons than not to think that Mihawk vs Shanks is an extreme fight for either of them:
*Both are similarly built (even though physical appearance is not 1 to 1 in fiction, you can have skinny characters that are stronger than bigger characters)
*Both are around the same age
*Both are swordsman
*Both only have their skills, physical stats and haki (no DF).
*Both are 100% human (at least that we know, so no special ability related to another race)
*Both excell at observation (Mihawk's title "hawk eye" / his first draft title "Clairboyant") (Shanks's extreme future sight)
Considering all that, Mihawk has two arms, and Shanks only one. Mihawk has a black blade, Shanks does not. Mihawk is better at swordplay (even though I personally don't value that a lot because sword skill is non-existent in OP, Oda never specified what constitutes "sword skill"). Shanks most definitely has better Conquerors than Mihawk.
So none of them have a HUGE advantage over the other, at least from what we've seen till now.
It's NOT like Shanks has Akainu's fruit, or Mihawk has been stated to rely only on regular swordplay and does not have haki.
Both should be around the same level.
Also, the video starts by saying that Zoro needs to seriously catch up to current Luffy, which I do agree with, current Luffy is BROKEN!
But take into consideration that an OLD Rayleigh scared a Yonko in his prime. So I have faith that PRIME "World Strongest Swordsman & Right Hand of the Pirate King" Roronoa Zoro is going to be EASILY Yonko level at that point.

How anyone can read One Piece and come away with any opinion other than "Shanks is that guy" is beyond me. The feats, the way he talks, the way he walks, the way people react to him, THE WAY THE LIGHT TOUCHES HIM lets you know that Shanks is the pillar that others look up at and figure out how to move around
A stronger swordsman can't beat the weaker swordsman. Only in One piece lmao
@homeblue7667 A 5' 100 pound woman can be a more skilled boxer than a 250 pound 6'6" boxer of middling skill and still lose to them, yes. Skill isn't the only factor that goes into winning a fight
@@fenris5932then why didn’t Shanks take the title of WSS away from Mihawk
@@TearsOfThembecause he doesn't care to do so and isn't as good at swordsmanship as Mihawk anyway, purely from only having one arm and not hard focusing on it like Mihawk does
@@TearsOfThem nobody cares lmao, only bum whoronoa
Fodder gonna be out of luck when BB starts grabbing and pulling on earths gravitational field😂
When the fact oda even says Mihawk is stronger will amaze the shanks glazers
Oda never said that. “Just skill”
@@imawarrior4878 lol some actor said he asked oda if shanks was stronger than mihawk because actor always thought shanks was stronger but he said oda told him differently
When?
@@imawarrior4878 when kaido was cut by the akaziya 9 he said how comes they could cut me do they share the same swordsmenship as oden while all of them did a ryou attack paradise totska meaning haki is definitely intertwined with swordsmenship it's that simple more importantly his sword is stronger than both Roger and wb that is no easy feat what does that mean?
If I have greater skills
And I'm the strongest swordmen
With the strongest sword its ggs I can't lie there is no but conq haki do not be surprised if mihawk even surpasses shanks in that
you are living in fantasy land if you think ODA, the biggest shanks glazer other than luffy is gonna have mihawk look better. actually insane
The picture u gotta paint for rayleigh to get 2 shotted is crazy…..i get it but if it takes getting hit off guard like shanks than yeah i guess so
Kidd isn’t landing an attack on Rayleigh. He’s too fast and his haki is too strong. You saw what happened to Kidd vs shanks. I think Rayleigh vs Kidd is a mid diff fight for Rayleigh. We have not seen Kidd fight anyone not as big as a mountain.
Bad:”it’s not how it works”
That’s exactly how power scaling works 😂
Oden is a better swordsman than Roger but lost easily. Swordsmanship and power aren't the same thing.
You don’t know that ur assuming Oden has better swordsmanship than Roger all u said just suggests that Roger is the stronger swordmen of the 2
@@Fabszs81 Everything you said is nonsense.
@@Fabszs81
By your logic zoro would be stronger then Roger but that would never happen
@@Mohamad-m7md bro u just said oden has better swordmanship then Roger says who ?? All u have seen is a small skirmished in which Roger won therefore showing Roger to be the better swordmen
@@sagovanathis logic would have worked if Mihawk wasn't called strongest swordsman
Mihawk is stronger than shanks, he is the worlds strongest swordsman in both name and actuality, Mihawk is a confirmed master in all forms of haki besides conquerors and that’s only because it hasn’t been confirmed yet, Mihawk is one of only two people in the series with a black blade which is the highest armament achievement shown thus far, his observation is powerful enough to see the events at levelly from his CASTLE, he rolls up on the red hair pirates like it’s no one’s business and states that no one else can surpass him, his bounty is relative to shanks with a crew and an armada and territories, and he is one of the only 3 in the verse with the title of STRONGEST. King is delusional.
Finally, yes shanks is a swordsman.
Bro KOL needs to read the damn vivre card. It said Mihawk is the strongest swordsman in name and reality. Skill=Strength in one piece. King was yonko commander one by Kaido because he had better skill than queen. But he was also stronger. Rare L from KOL
People don’t read with comprehension and that’s the problem 😂
Rare L??
@@parmar__12 more like common L
@@Fusion237 yea
But they are not written by Oda tho?
I just need you to KNOW that these thumbnails have been absolute gas! Please keep them up in your videos!
Bro shanks glaze is crazy get bro past a east blue sea be first
Mihawk is the one fighting East Blue level pirates, not Shanks.
@@denif609yeah shanks was fighting bandits 😂
@@urekmazino6800he didn't fight them at all on screen. Ben and Lucky row did.
Nobody is taking quake punch with off-guard including Roger, Shanks, Rayleigh Garp etc. except Kaido.
This is why Mihawk is the most underrated character in one piece
A character that had a hard time against vista who is too much of a bitch to go against the other Yonko+ under buggy is never underrated
Nah it’s just KOL sucks this man’s meat
@@xshantop1verse407 Come on be honest right now, Mihawk would easily murk Buggy and take his spot as a Yonko if he felt like it.
hes not underrates stop the cap he literally has no character hes a plot device
Bookmarking this for when Mihawk does something crazy asf. Can’t wait to hear all the too and excuses they come up with
Mihawk > shanks ext diff
Black beard dipped when Rayleigh snuck in on him
If Shanks was that much more physically dominating than Mihawk, Mihawk wouldn't be viewed as the strongest swordsmen.
The Marines know Shanks fought Kaido before arriving at Marineford, yet the Marines still view Mihawk as the greatest, that means to them fighting Kaido isn't outside of Mihawk's paygrade.
Mihawk's title as World's Strongest is the only one that holds significant narrative weight, therefore that's the one we need to take the most seriously.
Rayleigh isn't an active pirate anymore. Whitebeard and Garp kept their strength because they kept fighting o
Shanks not making it to EOS, shanks pack coming in 2025 I’m calling it. Oda pls pack him up already 🙏🏾
Your family comes before that 🤤
I meant the entire bloodline 🤤
Yeah like he said ^
After your bloodline 🤤
Remeber to pray son
Losers
Oh boy! Time for my weekly dose of Tier 3 brain rot!
What Shanks did to the Kidds pirate, Mihawk did is as well in Romans volume towards Don Kreigs fleet with a single slash. If they duel often back the , that means theyre on par. Pretty sure Mihawk has kings haki and the same observation as Shanks, thats why their duel always ends up in a draw.
Megellens poison scales above the majority of characters listed
Mihawk is stronger than Shanks and ANY other swordsman in this story. I will die on this hill 🪦
BB wasn't even confident to fight Rayleigh, so it is equal to Rayleigh saying that he wouldn't win nowadays against him.
If Mihawk is close or equal to Shanks, then Vista is Yonko level
Me personally, I think Shanks is stronger but I’m not mad if you think they’re equals
2024 and people still think Mihawk vs Vista was a serious fight. In the same arc where Mihawk was sending attacks weak enough for Mr. 1 to block. Can't fix slow people.
@@MihawkTopOne and why would he sleep on Vista? He straight up said he respected him. Go sit in the corner lil boi
mihawk was barely trying while fighting vista, he was watching luffy and thinking about him
@@alp_altinok3828 prove it. He straight up tells Vista he knows him and respects him. You can't just head cannon he wasn't trying and letting the whole world see him struggle
i swear oda literally spells the scaling out for folks and they turn around and basically tell him he’s wrong. two parallel egghead chapters show kidd and law (who are CLOSE IN POWER TO EACH OTHER) fighting two different yonko. kidd gets destroyed in one shot and shanks walks away. law and blackbeard have a drawn out, multiple page fight and then the finale is off screened. that’s a HIGH DIFF. it was VERY HARD for blackbeard to beat law, and it was VERY EASY for shanks to beat kidd. law and kidd are RELATIVE. i don’t care who you think is a little bit stronger, it doesn’t matter. how can you be a weekly reader, see this play out in real time, and then say blackbeard can hit as hard as shanks?
Laps mihawk is ACTUALLY WIDELY INSANE😂😂😂😂😂😂"shanks n boys get buffed for having no fleet" -Kol .........MF MIHAWK HAS LITERALLY NO FLEET WHAT IS THIS FUCKERY😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
Gold comment
2-Shotting Rayleigh? Wild.
I feel like ignoring how Strong Mihawk is, is ignoring a significant part of the Story that you guys will live to regret when Mihawk actually becomes extremely important to the story lol
KOL my be the worse powerscaler in the UA-cam OP community
Nah One Piece polls on UA-cam are the worst powerscalers frfr
Mihawk says being pirate king is an even greater task than strongest swordsman
Its well past due for Shanks to be knocked off his pedastal in the community 💀 cause mid diffing Mihawk is absolutely insane.
Ill say it, Shanks is Overrated
Depends on which part of the community are you present in.
This is a King of Lightning video, so ofc you will hear lot of Shanks glaze
@@denif609 yeah 😂 bro really throws everything out of the window when it comes to "God King Shanks"
4:57 "BB killing Shanks is old headcanon" and how does he respond to that.....with his own headcanon that Shanks has to survive because he's mysterious lmao
I'm genuinely curious how Shanks fan will react once even Shanks himself glaze Mihawk as stronger. Will they admit fault or try to insult Oda?
Probably the latter
If shanks says it i will accept it duh. I just ignore what fodder say
We don’t really care no one want smoke w the red hair pirates
I mean yeah pretty sure everyone will admit it because then mihawk will actually have something other then his poor feats and dubious title
Yes, because zoro is going to have to beat the strongest guy in the verse end of story great logic. Mihawk admiral level
BB didn’t want smoke with Rayleigh, an 80 year old man that quit fighting and being a pirate when he was 50. BB even haf his crew with him and still didn't want smoke. Ray is past his prime he would lose to BB high to extreme diff but he's dealing severe damage to BB. It may be the loss of a limb or a crazy scar. Think about it like this...the Navy knows exactly where Rayleigh is. They know the island he lives on and still never pulls up on him. They could surround the island whenever they want with troops but they know better.
KOL, What do you not understand by MIhawk is officially the strongest living one piece character up to date
Lol whatever helps you sleep at night
The reason that mihawk has a lower bounty is because shanks has a whole grand fleet and he’s a yonko. Mihawk is a formal warlord who is apparently an “underling” to buggy. If Mihawk had a grand fleet I’d argue he’d have a higher bounty
The Mohawk slander is unreal
Blackbeard gave Shanks the scar before having the darkness fruit. Raw claw, no devil fruit.
If black beard is" skcedish" then so is red hair. Man's got cut once and has been on a world Snitchathon lol
The same page that told us Mihawk has greater sword skills than Shanks also reiterates that he's the world's strongest swordsman. I think you missed that part, KOL.
This video has a lot of "Mike Tyson is old, I could take him" vibes
