Speaking of titles, I've always been interested in Rayleigh's title "Dark King". Perhaps the "dark" is indicative of him being under Roger's shadow throughout his pirate career.

Maybe, but "Dark King" was subber translation from "Mei-O" 冥王, it's Japanese (and Chinese) way of referring to Pluto/Hades.

While 冥's primary meaning is darkness and night, it's secondary meaning is death and afterlife.

We know Roger's crew kills, maybe it also means that Rayleigh is extremely good at that....
