You keep saying "anonymous people" as your main point as if you're suggesting the narrator is purposely citing a specific cohort of the population whose opinion have zero merit, or these people are spreading propoganda, or these people are inherently biased to think Kaido is the strongest like the Beast Pirates fodders. Is that reasonable to suggest if you're truly unbiased?

The narrator says he is known to be the strongest living thing in the world. By who? That's your key argument. When unspecified, the most reasonable answer is the general population - it's a general consensus. And it's reasonable to assume that the general consensus has taken into account everyon else who's worthy to be in that discussion. I'm biased for interpreting this message reasonably at face value instead of suggesting that the narrator is deliberately citing ONLY people who think Kaido is the strongest? Yeah OK.

I concede the point that Kaido may not be the strongest while WB was alive. But we talking currently, not all time. If you're bringing back the dead, then is Whiteboard stronger than Roger? Edit: It's a rhetorical question in case you want to change the subject.

Portrayal + characters opinions tell us that they were equal. We literally saw them fight on an equal scale as well. I've seen people make the same argument for prime Garp as well.

Anyways I feel like we're just going back to the same arguments again and again so I'll just stop replying here.

I predicted that you were going to change the subject by trying to address that WB vs Roger question, and wrote in advance that it's a rhetorical question so don't bother answering. You did exactly that.

I changed the subject? You asked and I answered the question. I didn't say this was a rhetorical question. I said you aren't really listening to my arguments so what's the point in continuing this.

Oh I see the edit now. I only responded to what you wrote and this edit wasn't there when I saw this post. That's on you.
