About why Silvers Rayleigh is called the Dark King : You said it perfectly, Rayleigh is the Darkness to Roger's light. Just like Zoro is more vicious and isn't afraid to show some bloodlust. I would be 100 times more afraid to anger Zoro than Luffy. I view Rayleigh the same way, except, he's a bit more jovial than Zoro is.

It was Naruto that gave flashbacks a negative reputation. And far as I remember it was mainly because they kept replaying that same Itachi kills the Uchia one over and over. Kept trying to milk it for all it was worth using it as filler basically. One Piece the flashbacks are always different and major plot points occur in them.

[@samuelhoskins2915]

I've always believed "Dark King" meant simply that, where Roger "ruled" in the light, Rayleigh "ruled" from the shadows. Roger and Luffy are extraordinarily similar, so I imagine that in the early days, Roger had a lot of similar problems and emotional hangups as Luffy did/does. So he needed someone more stern and level-headed to balance him out and keep him on track, the same way Luffy needs Zoro to be that person for him. Luffy will always ultimately do what he wants, but he values Zoro's opinion and input *extremely* highly (see Water 7), so in any realm where Luffy is making an important decision, you can bet that Zoro's opinion on that decision has been taken into account. I've heard "Dark King" or "Shadow King" or similar terms used to describe someone who "controls" a political leader from behind the scenes. We can see this in history in a few places where the proper ruler is too young/unfit/or simply weak-willed and so will be "controlled" or coerced into the decisions an outside party wants. For a One Piece example: Our favorite shadowy chair-sitter Im is absolutely a Shadow King. They rule unseen from the shadows over who we, on the face of things, believe to be the real rulers of the world, the 5 Elders. "Dark King" was likely given to Rayleigh because, in the face of the goofy, eccentric, bananas-ass personality of Roger, people looked at his calm, collected first mate and assumed HE must be running the show, just allowing Roger to maintain the *appearance* of the true Captain and true Pirate King, all the while Rayleigh pulling the strings. This mirrors in Luffy and Zoro as well. People often assume Zoro is the Captain because of his calm demeanor and intimidating presence. What people don't realize when they assume Rayleigh or Zoro are the ones in charge is that neither Rayleigh nor Zoro had/have any desire to *actually* be in control of their true Captains. Regardless of their inherent ability to lead, regardless of having all the qualities of kings, they both comfortably and happily choose second in command, both knowing that when their Captain is MOST in need, he will turn to them before all others. Where Luffy and Roger were *destined* to be kings, Rayleigh and Zoro have the one quality neither Luffy nor Roger had: the willingness to yield power completely and bend the knee to someone else, understanding to only step into power when their Captains need it. In the rare circumstances where the King must step down from the light, the Dark King will *always* step forward from the shadows.

[@unknownentity6588]

When people fought Rayleigh they probably asked themselves the same question as people that fight Zoro nowadays. He was surely strong enough to have his own Crew and become the Pirate King, just like Zoro. But I assume it has something to do with his dream why he didn't chase this title himself. He doesn't need the title to fulfill his dream, he probably fulfilled his dream while being Roger's mate. I think Zoro and Rayleigh are both very humble (i.e. Zoro on Thriller Bark vs Kuma and not telling anyone about it and for Rayleigh being so strong and still being fine with standing in someone else's shadow) and that's what you need in a partner if you wanna become Pirate King. Awesome character!

Literally my favorite character in One Piece from the minute I seen him. I knew right off the bat this dude was godlike powerful

2 questions: Is Mister 2 alive? Am i the only one that think that he should be a member of the crew?

[@von2046]

yes hes alive , chapter 666 cover

[@isaactheflaming12345]

Bon-chan is alive, he's currently in Impel Down, he took Ivankov's place in Newkama-Land

Love the videos man, keep it up don’t give up

[@gabrieldjatienza6971]

Kizaru may have superior devil fruit powers but he failed to kill or capture Rayleigh at Sabaody.

[@tresnonugroho6397]

Victory is meaningless if: A.) you ended up severely injured, or B.) you didn't accomplish your original/exact goal.

[@marocat4749]

Bold to assume he didnt let oz slide undrr an excuse, because it was never the goal, and for a later rematch. Rayleight is strong but old, and fun enough to fight for kizaru that he might pay him that respect, and wants a rematch.

I've never seen an epic character analysis before 👏

[@mathiasmatt728]

Rayleigh is the Dark King just like Sasuke is the Shadow Hokage.

[@clips9294]

Not Hokage*
