Talk:Shanks

Losing the arm

 * One Piece Data Books - Shanks did not lose any power losing an arm.

Otherwise, didn't Mihawk said that after losing his arm he is no longer able to fight him, or something like that?

 * Shanks is a left handed and he lose his left arm.


 * Mihawk said that he did't feel it would be a fair match if they dueled when Shanks only had one arm, I think, even if Shanks was still just as strong. Sephirona 20:58, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, there are two things it could be. One Mihawk is saying it isn't fair.  If he wins, people will accuse him of beating a handicapped person.  If he looses, people will accuse him of going easy on Shanks.


 * Alternatively, he acknowledges Shanks cannot be fought because of his status of Yonkou puts him in a position beyond his reach (part of me wonders if when Zoro beats Mihawk, Mihawk will point to Shanks or something as his next target). However, this is all speculation and on top of things a forum type of discusson, so means nothing and I'd go deeper into it then I have if it were allowed.  :-(  --One-Winged Hawk 21:36, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Hey i added Kaidou to shanks major battles sayin that the fight has not started since they are probably going to fight is that ok

Shanks' Bounty
Hey, where did you get Shanks' bounty..? Wow, was that true, 700 million..? Amazing if that's true...

Good point. I don't remember seeing a bounty for him either. Shanks page has now been reverted by someone, but I'm looking up the other edits done by the same IP address and he also stated that Mihawk's bounty was 600 million. Did I miss that info, or is this just speculation...? Sephirona 21:03, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Mythbusters pretty much sums everything up about his bounty. :-/ --One-Winged Hawk 21:37, 21 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Seriously, if people see a bounty on this page - remove it. This must have been the umpteenth millionth time its been put on the page and I wrote th at mythbusters section just for it.  Theres also Mihawk, Whitebeard Gold Roger on the list of "Bounties people wish were true" list.  --One-Winged Hawk 21:44, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I wonder why Mr. Oda hasn't yet reveals the bounty of those great pirates. I think the amount must be incredibly high. ^_^


 * Because its too much of a plot spoiler. Oda is slowly building up to them, his letting us be wowed one by one.  If he throws us off with something incrediably high so soon, little in between will wow us anymore.  --One-Winged Hawk 12:57, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, and he'd rather brings new characters with high bounty than reveals the old characters with still remain unknown bounty... T_T

Considering he's a former jolly roger pirate and that he probably knows what happened in the void century, it's safe to assume it's going to be very very high.--1201 13:17, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Possibility of a DF
Some people are trying to add that "It is unknown if Shanks has eaten a Devil Fruit since Luffy last saw him." or something along those lines. While this statement is true, it is also true to any and all characters that didn't have DF powers the last time Luffy saw them (Vivi, Saruyama Alliance, Skypeians, Shandians, Galley-La Company, Franky Family, etc). I know the 10-year gap gives Shanks a higher possibility of consuming one, but Kaku and Kalifa ate theirs just days after meeting Luffy, and most charactesr have been away longer. I don't think it should be placed here unless it's placed in the profile of all characters that may have eaten a DF. So...should the statement be added or not?

 * Just remove it if it slips on the page. We know he didn't have one in the past, thats ALL we need to know for now.  The ones adding it are just being specutive and impatient. One-Winged Hawk 22:58, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

"A while" and ten years are completely different. Buh6173 23:30, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * 1: I said that "the 10-year gap gives Shanks a much higher possibility of consuming one".
 * 2: The 3 that were cofirmed ate theirs during a short "while" away from Luffy.
 * 3: Speculations aren't allowed.

The only time it should say anything like that is if it is referring to Doflamingo because we do not know what his power is. Drunk Samurai 07:06, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
