Wait, so you're telling me that Mihawk > Shanks cause Mihawk has the title of World Strongest Swordsman, but Kaido's title of World Strongest Creature means nothing? Oh, I see.

C'mon, bro. Just say something like "Mihawk slams the verse" and it's okay. Ain't judging you.

Kaidou's title was never stated to he in actuality like Mihawk's, it's only ever been stated as a rumor (its always is said, is known, but never in name and actuality like Mihawk and arguably WB)

The most disturbing thing is that Mihawk clashed with Vista and said something alone the lines of "this is tiring, let's just stop fighting" why didn't he end the fight with one shot If he is so strong? Vista is weaker than Whitebeard and Whitebeard is equal to Shanks (they clashed and split the skies in our first introduction of Whitebeard) But Mihawk couldn't defeat Vista and instead opted to ask for some sort of truce.

He was also clashing with other Whitebeard victims seemingly evenly. This includes Croco-boy, Duffy, Vista (an honourable mention MIGHT be GEAR TWO luffy) Even if he was holding back (which I doubt since he was wining so much about them standing in his way) there is no way he is equal to Shanks.

(I definetly might be bullshitting. I'm just saying this for the sport of argument)

Kaidou is said via rumor to be worlds strongest beast.

Mihawk is said by the author himself to be the strongest swordsman.

Mihawk only retreated due to Sengoku's order to retreat from the ice bay since the encircling walls were about to rise and the bay would be destroyed

So idk where you got the Implication that Mihawk was tired from fighting Vista but he only retreated due to Sengoku's order.

Now as for why Mihawk didn't just one shot Vista, there's two things to say abt that.

1. Vista is known to be one of the strongest swordsmen in the world and is also stated to have relative sword skills to Mihawk

2. Mihawk was completely casual throughout the entire war and didn't use a single named move at all.

So all in all this isn't an anti-feat by any means.

Again with clashing with others, he was being casual, he wasn't going all out at all. Although one may argue that Mihawk wasn't holding back due to this statement

There are two thing to say about that arg:

1. Holding back isn't the same as going all out. An example of Mihawk holding back was during the east blue against Zoro. Here during the war he just wasn't holding back, but that doesn't mean he was actually trying either.

2. Mihawk specifically said "this power knows no restraint" which was in reference to Yoru. This can be argued since we know that swords have their own personalities. So this is, in fact, very plausible.

So yeah, everything you just argued as being an anti-feat is now out the window @Mk Fri13

@Seekerbro is right, @Httpedrokkk .

What about croco-boy?

Croco boy the Arabasta Luffy victim managed to clash pretty evenly with Mihawk. How?

He got stronger

Crocodile got stronger in prison obv. But if we were to assume that he DIDN'T get stronger in prison, then Doffy should be an Alabasta luffy victim since he clashed equally and thought of Crocodile as his equal (even wanted to team up with bro)
