>The Overrated Red-Haired Hype Machine
Oh, Shanks. The so-called "Yonko," the red-haired darling of the One Piece world, strutting around with his fancy cape and that smug grin like he owns the Grand Line.
>Let’s cut through the hype and expose this straw-hat-wearing wannabe for what he really is: a glorified beach bum with a sword and a serious PR problem.
>First off, let’s talk about his so-called "legendary" status.
>The guy’s been coasting on his reputation for years, sipping rum and throwing parties on his ship while the rest of the world actually deals with real problems.
>What’s he done lately? Showed up in Marineford to flex his Conqueror’s Haki for five seconds and then dipped out like he had a haircut appointment. Real heroic, Shanks. Meanwhile, Luffy’s out here fighting gods and emperors, and Shanks is probably napping on a beach somewhere, dreaming of his glory days with Roger.
>And speaking of that arm—or lack thereof—let’s address the elephant in the room. Shanks lost his arm to a measly Sea King. A Sea King! The same kind of creature that rookie pirates use as punching bags in the East Blue. He’s supposed to be this unstoppable force, yet he couldn’t dodge a fish? Come on. Either he was drunker than usual that day, or his Haki was on vacation. And don’t give me that “he sacrificed it for Luffy” nonsense—Luffy was fine! Shanks just wanted an excuse to look edgy with a missing limb.
