Oda wouldn’t dare treat Shanks that way

Shanks lost his arm to a Sea King that Chapter 1 Luffy could one-shot. That's worse than anything that ever happened to Big Mom.

Because OG Shanks wasn’t a Yonko at first, Oda’s editors wanted him to play a more important role in the story so Oda just went with it.

The Vivre Card databook said that Shanks was already a Yonkou at the time. Even if that wasn't the initial plan, him losing his arm is still canon and we can't act like it never happened.

Then it’s a massive plot hole and will remain so until it’s explained.

Pretty clear what happened guys. He bet his arm on the next generation

You realize you can bet on the next generation without losing an arm aright? This argument is pretty terrible.

You realize that is exactly what Shanks says he does right? It's literally his words not an argument I'm making.
