-Those slashes are nothing special: moving in straight lines and they do not have a brain. Incomparable to an actual very fast character, that can anticipate the opponents' movements, can dodge/change directions and all... Was that enough?
- He tried to block him, which he did not have to do and which he wouldn't try if Zoro launches a big move, as he is a pretty solid observation haki user.
And btw on a meta level: Oda obv wanted to showcase the RS' strengths and hyping him up, whereby that city block tanking feat certainly helped, meaning "P1 being able to tag him" should be taking with a grain of salt.
- Yeah I know. And in general each and every top tier has enough fire power to kill each other in one go (besides Kaido) . But since when are battles only decided by who has the bigger pp?
What do you want me to say about this? Acknowledging that he's able to potentially kill Sanji? Yes, he is able to do so.
Will he have problems connecting those kill shots? Yes, he will. Which is my point.
As he is: super agile, super fast, skilled in CoO, is additionally invisiblend and.. and.. and.
Now it's my turn. Didn't Sanji block a move called "Enma slash" right after the cliff cutting scene within close quarter range?
Wasn't Kaido in Dragon Form seen dodging Hiryu Kaen, even though he was right in front of his face?
Sanji can dodge Katakuri's jelly bean in a scene, where Oda via visuals puts emphasis on at how good that dodging feat just was, but he cannot anticipate swordstrikes?
Little disclaimer: I'm not arguing that Sanji wins or that he's the superior combatant, just that out of everyone relevant, he will most likely end up as one of the more difficult matches for Zoro. Will become even more obvious if Oda possibly pulls out some decent CoO feats during the Queen fight.
