Killing intent is like the atmosphere or aura around a person. There has been no proof to your claims so it is the opposite. when there is proof then you can come to me and say that what zoro did was haki. Until then, it remains a no.
Shanks is a confirmed Haōshoku user according to the wiki. It makes sense seeing as essentially a wink scared off a sea king, so the anime seems to support this.

Meanwhile, you're claiming some unsupported and unmentioned "aura" as the real culprit. I have evidence to support my claim and so far you haven't provided any yourself. From what I can tell, haki is the current default position until you can counter it with something more compelling.

Pook, I'm not "forcing it as fact". It's just given what we have it appears most likely.

Kasey, the "killing intent" wording apoo used was referencing zoro intending to cut the noble to shreds. It doesn't even appear remotely connected to any of the events involving shanks or zoro's encounter with bounty hunters since none of the primary symptoms were involved.
P.S.
Apoo's the man.

Ooh, I'd also like to add that the wiki doesn't even have "killing intent" listed what so ever which seems to support that it's being interpreted as more than what it actually is. Not a finishing blow, but just another point i wanted to add.
