General & Others Is Zoro the vice-captain or close? Is he Lufy's right-hand man?

So Zoro is the closest thing to a vice-captain, the position Rayleigh held.



Because that's irrelevant when it comes to parallels. The parallels exist outside the physical traits; the physical traits exist to compliment the parallel.
Closest thing is not enough. Sanji is pretty close to a vice-captain as well.



They split into 3 groups by Captain's orders, not 2. Luffy doesn't separate Sanji from Zoro.

If you are going to post panels at least interpret the panels correctly. The 3 split because they are the 3 strongest in the crew.

Last I checked too this isn't a Sanji thread.

OT; maybe. We really don't know much about Ray except his face value info. Nothing deep for us to actually make a conclusion on a parallel.

None of this shows Sanji sharing the vice-captain–like position with Zoro.
Then nothing puts Zoro in that vice-captain-like position other than joining to the crew as a first member.

- Leading a group of the crew when its necessary? Sanji does that.
- Having the greatest bounty after the Captain? Sanji has that currently, not Zoro.
- He gives trust to his crewmates, like he did in Enies Lobby and he helped Usopp so he could find a way to be useful.
- Being clever and wiser than his captain when its necessary as a vice-captain? Sanji is clearly smarter than Zoro.
- No one ever called Zoro vice-captain, and no one cares about Zoro's authority, especially not Sanji.

Zoro has no parallel with Rayleigh, definitely not because he didn't join Luffy's crew at the beginning, lol at reaching to find a parallel like refusing to join, Sanji refused to join Luffy at the beginning as well. Sanji can be a vice-captain just as easily, and he would never accept Zoro as a vice-captain, who would never accept Sanji as a vice-captain as well. They are equals.

If you want to find a reaching parallel like that how about this?

- Sanji tells Luffy to piss off when Luffy first invites him to his crew.
- They both are blonde
- They both like women
- They both have similar mustaches
- One is ''dark'' king and the other is ''black'' leg

Ray was probably capable of actually pushing his captain but Sanji couldn't do any shit to Luffy. Not even an offence just the truth.
Roronoa Zoro can't do any shit to Luffy as well. Ray is pushing nothing, Roger was clearly different level than any of his crewmates, lmao, Buggy said Rayleigh was Douglas Bullet level.

Really? So Hancock>King? How bout Chinjao>Sanji? Doffy>King
Prime chinjao>>>>>sanji Zoro Law.... unless you believe prime Garp needs training for Sanji lol

Also old Chinjao ~ base Sanji

King has to prove that he is above doffy/hancock indeed.
They are all common high tiers...

Well considering that Law and Zoro are probably high tiers, or tha strongest mid tiers inverse. You jus claimed Prime Chinjao is a Top Tier......

So Hancock and Doffy are as strong as YC1’s.....

Because of just that one scene?

- Leading a group of the crew when its necessary? Sanji does that.
Was Zoro around?

- Having the greatest bounty after the Captain? Sanji has that currently, not Zoro.
How does this show Sanji is closer to vice-captain than Zoro?

- He gives trust to his crewmates, like he did in Enies Lobby and he helped Usopp so he could find a way to be useful.
Is he showing leadership? Is he calling the shots with Zoro?

- Being clever and wiser than his captain when its necessary as a vice-captain? Sanji is clearly smarter than Zoro.
You mean like when Sanji demanded dignity from captain when wanting Usopp back without his apology?

- No one ever called Zoro vice-captain, and no one cares about Zoro's authority, especially not Sanji.
No one is saying he is vice-captain. And saying no one cares about his authority is just ignoring the manga. He was the one who told them to abandon Merry. Even Sanji complied.

None of these examples show Zoro and Sanji being close to the vice-captain role together. At best, it shows Sanji being "third in command."

Zoro has no parallel with Rayleigh, definitely not because he didn't join Luffy's crew at the beginning, lol at reaching to find a parallel like refusing to join, Sanji refused to join Luffy at the beginning as well. Sanji can be a vice-captain just as easily, and he would never accept Zoro as a vice-captain, who would never accept Sanji as a vice-captain as well. They are equals.

You're missing the symbolism for the boat. Zoro's parallel to Rayleigh is being the right-hand to the Pirate King. Rayleigh's flashback was to show readers how similar Roger's start was to Luffy, giving the vice-captain the Zoro role. Your Sanji comparison doesn't rebuke anything. Was Luffy starting and without his ship when he met Sanji?

They are similair in how they seem to be exceptional and beyond what normal first mates / second strongest in crew are like

They also do share some traits but they are not carbon copies lol

Zoro gonna be much more than Ray who just sailed with Roger and after that became a drunkard bum

TBH it's pretty interesting he is "Dark King" yet he clearly didn't have any big ambition since he didnt do shit after Roger died

Seriously you think prime Chinjao was what?
Chinjao is Yc1+ , at least high high tier, at best Inbetweener.

Luffy was oneshotted by Kaido and it doesnt stop.gim from being above common high tiers.

Prime Garp saw that he cant beat Chinjao without a training
... I rest my case.

Y'all say that Posthawk is powerful for cuttings here iceberg... Chinjao splits a continental ice block ... ..

Garp saw Chinjao as a big threat that cant be defeated without needing training.

And
Hancock /Duffy/Cracker can beat King anyway...
Common high tiers
