Besides him eating the Nika fruit, Luffy was saying things similar to what Roger was saying despite being not related by blood. It was this point that Shanks choose to introduce Luffy by to Rayleigh and it made the old man excited to meet Luffy.
It wont surprise if the visit at the "Bar" wasn´t just planned by coincidence?,,i mean they didn´t have a freaking clue exactly Who was goin to the one who took the Nika,, but whoever it was , it was the correct person destined by Fate to be the proper user for it... this would imply that all that Shock they made when Luffy stole their "treasure they took from the enemy" it was all fake.. this could be a posibility
I wont mind to see just a whole chapter totally dedicated,, to the Insane Shithole,, that happened in that Throne room,,showcasing Loki´s powers,, Harald´s power, other giants, and in the next one maybe half of it dedicated to a Battle between Loki and Shanks,, until he was able to chain him.. even MORE than know what kind of fruit it was honestly,,
We learned that Ima’s tattoo makes people stronger - that probably helped Shanks out. Did he lose his bonus strength boost when his arm got eaten?
Nope because Shanks didn't get the deep Abyssal marks
If i have to put it against Shamrocks after that.. when they are probably so identical in power, it is a total disadvantage... since probably the most mininum mistake or handicap, could send you to the Grave, even Mihawk admitted he lost interest after that, probably He never tried to fight Shanks to begin with since he lost his arm, cause in someone so prideful as Mihawk, winning over him with such a handicap, it wont feel right, so yeah probably 2 Arms Shanks it was Slightly more powerful than his 1 arm version, and in duels against insane chars it could make a world of difference.. lets remember he beat Loki when he still had both, i m not sure it could be so easy now, except for plot reasons

yeah.. he was pretty smart and GTFO fast.. since he knew that Tatto.. tied you to Imu's Will, and losing 100% along his arm, to remove it completly is not a totally bad deal.. it was kind of poetic, that why he wasnt sad, as he said he made a bet on the future, just 4 one arm..ditching anything Imu related and betting on Luffy.
He beat Loki the same year he became a yonko, after meeting Luffy. So he win with only 1 arm
Shanks still had the tattoo the day Harald was killed though, so Shanks was likely as ignorant as Harald was, since he still risked getting himself fully possessed with those puppet shit marks.
Shanks obviously knew about Imu even before going to HolyLand. Why do you think he skipped out on becoming a Holy Knight.
and probably the thing he wants to warn Harald about may be the price one has to pay in order to gave a higher contract (with Imu)
You are right! thanks for clarify.. i forgot he left the country..on my head shanks beat him that Same exact day,,
So if we can assume Shanks fully knew everything instead of getting lucky, then I guess we can further blame him for Harald’s death, because of all these detours he took, like Gaban’s hot tub party, before sailing to Elbaf sooner and warning Harald of the puppet marks.
Don't think you can be possessed until you have the 2nd tier or 3rd tier of the marking. Even with the first tier, Harald still needed a Den Den Mushi to get instructions for the God Knights... those with higher tiers can communicate telepathically as far as we can see.
Considering that it seems,, the full body control seems to be possible from the Second Tattoo, foward,, and he MISTERIOUSLY dissapeared when he was about to receive the second Mark as Harald.. im not sure it was a lucky coincidence,,he pretty much said..ok, time to get the fk out of here,,,
Then we can assume Harald died because of Shanks’ negligence then. Negligence for not sailing to Elbaf sooner, and getting sidetracked by things like hot tub parties.
yeah..i was kinda thinking the same,,he didnt care a shit to warn him,, or simply didn´t know they would gave him the second Mark so soon ](to HARALD I MEAN]) ,,thus at some point it was bound to happen,,, but i m pretty pretttyyyy sure...Shanks knows that if you get the second Tatto,, you are totally fucked,, totally tied to Imu´s will, not a bad moment to get the hell out of there ASAP if you know ,they are goin to call you to receive it soon...
