That's not how it works. Swords can be defended against with strong enough COA. That's the whole point of needing AP.
Yamato has shown impressive haki suggesting she is capable of putting up valid defenses. Thinking that someone holding a sword = being able to defeat xyz is ridiculous
No... There is no need for AP if you can overwhelm your opponent with a style that he cant defend against.
That is the true beauty of Zoro's combat style - how overwhelming it is. Ridiculous AP is just a nice bonus.
Yamato can defend from 1 sword but can she defend from 3 at the same time? Or against 9 of them?
Do we know anyone in post-TS that managed to defend against Santoryu?
It's not true. Go on with your ridiculous theory
It is true, go re-read the rooftop fight.
Lol having CoA does not mean chopper jumps 5 tiers lol. He probably won't ever beat anybody has strong has queen the whole series. His BB matchup os Doc Q. I don't see him being YC2 level. Maybe Yc4 or 3.
Let me paint you a different picture.
MP Chopper with haki coating slaps Big Mom in the face and DJ Sanji kicks Big Mom in the face.
Do you realize that Chopper is the one who will deal more damage to Big Mom?
Hint: It doesnt mean that Chopper is stronger than Sanji.
