During the battle, Jinbe comes to Luffy's aid and challenges the swordsman. He uses his fishman karate to slow the oncoming cannon balls shot at him that Mihawk then cuts. The two then engage in a short clash, sending Jinbe flying back as he continues to pursue Luffy.
After Luffy's message is revealed, Mihawk and Zoro went outside the castle and Mihawk tells Zoro that the humandrills are divided in ranks and that there is a leader among them, who has imitated his (Mihawk) swordsmanship style.
