Introduction
Zoro has been exceptionally devoted to his role as Luffy's bodyguard during the Rooftop fight. Protecting Luffy has been Zoro's priority, and roughly 90% of all Zoro's actions have been in the course of protecting Luffy. In fact, the only action Zoro took that wasn't taken in the course of protecting Luffy was his initial Rengoku Oni Giri:
With Luffy out of commission for 10 more minutes, Zoro will have to protect Luffy a lot more. I thought to make a compendium of all the times Zoro has protected Luffy during the Rooftop battle. I will order the events in chronological order of chapters, and group them according to the aggressor.
Chapter 1001
Chapter 1002
Chapter 1003
Chapter ????
Summary (Chapter 1003)
By my count, Zoro has saved Luffy 7 times so far.
I will try to keep this up to date with future instances of Zoro being an impenetrable wall.
I expect that when next the Rooftop battle resumes, Zoro will hold off Hybrid Kaido for the 10 minutes until Luffy recovers.

Chapter 1003
Luffy exhausted himself against Kaido with his Kong Gatling and was thus left defenceless:
Zoro had to be protecting Luffy for a disproportionate amount of time as a result (protecting Luffy was literally all Zoro did in the chapter).
Vs Kaido
Vs Mama
Conclusion
Zoro saved Luffy five times in this chapter (thrice from Kaido and twice from Mama).

Vs Kaido
Kaido unleashed his Tatsumaki on all the Supernova:
Kidd was surprised by it, and Zoro compared it to a natural disaster:
Zoro caught Luffy during the storm and Luffy expressed his gratitude:
However, Zoro let his guard down and they were later separated, with Kaido taking the opportunity to bite on the defenceless Luffy:
This motivated Zoro to action and he moved to counter with his own Tatsumaki:
His attack badly cut Kaido up and had him coughing up blood for several panels:
He also neutralised Kaido's Tatsumaki, thus protecting the other Supenova.
Kaido laughed in joy that Zoro could counter his Tatsumaki with another Tatsumaki:
He challenged Zoro by unleashing a (presumably) even more powerful attack: "Tatsumaki: Gale of Destruction":
However, Zoro ignored Kaido's challenge and focused on dodging the wind slashes while carrying Luffy:
