We're not dillusional from facts like you, it's amazing how stupid you seem from the outside looking in when you make up random shit to satisfy your narrative.

Being the number 2 paints a very clear and obvious picture but keep doing you and writing comments devout of reality and we can keep laughing at you

Also good job trying to epically fail at mocking me when no where in my comment making fun of you guys did I use the word first mate... I used the word number 2

:ihaha::shame::risitasad::hapnoel:
What matters is that Zoro claimed one specific notion "I will take over if I found Luffy was slacking" which means he would be ready and he has the potential to lead and the power to. The Grandmaster is either unofficially the VC or he would still become one so bingo haha.

This isn't an order, he just did what was the most reasonable thing to do, which isn't dropping Toko and running away, Zoro was acting reckless and Sanji understood that, both of them do whatever they want to do and they back up each other when it's necessary, they don't follow each other orders but Luffy's, they don't even give orders to each other basicly. I don't think you got what "order" means
sanji himself called it an order, when he said ''don't give me orders''
 
If zoro really was the vice captain we won’t be having this argument, like how no one argues whether Rayleigh or Ben are the vice captain(first mate). And yes I agree that zoro is the second strongest and should be the VC but he was not given that position by luffy who is the captain of the crew
 
It's over. Zoro is officially confirmed as right hand/vice captain/first mate or whatever you want to call the 2nd strongest in a group.
This was rather obvious, there is a shit ton of feats and portrayal from manga and databooks that are clear proof. A good 90% of people have always been sure of that, only a small minority dared to argue against the blatant evidence.
But now it's literally undesputable. Thankfully, Oda killed any remaining argument.



These characters (Marco, Shiryu, Ben Beckman, Rayleigh, Katakuri, King, Sabo, Killer, Bepo, Zoro) have nothing in common for Oda to put them together as if there was a precise reason.
Nothing in common; bar a single thing.
Being the obvious 2nds strongest/right hands/vice captain/first mates of their crews and groups.

The One Piece official account textually stated that Zoro and co are the Number Twos of their crews/groups.


It's time to face a simple reality: no mindfuckery and bullshit about roles (Zoro and Killer are listed as "fighters" but they clearly act as vice captains/right hands), or about relationships (Shiryu joined the crew later than other characters), or about age (Katakuri being younger than Perospero).

This is a shonen and Oda makes things easy. Strength means hierarchy. Hierarchy is because of strength. The strongest is the leader and the captain. The 2nd strongest is the right hand of the captain and factually acts as vice captain. Then there's the rest of the crew.

The only difference is between right hands/2nds that are very close to the captain and almost as strong as him (Rayleigh to Roger, Zoro to Luffy, Ben to Shanks, Killer to Kidd) and right hands/2nds that while stronger than anyone else in the crew are not that close to the captain (King to Kaido, Katakuri to Big Mom, Marco to Whitebeard).

The beginning draft of the cover shows Oda's intent maybe even better than the final one: all characters are drew in the same way, and to Marco, Shiryu, Ben Beckman, Rayleigh, Katakuri, King, Sabo, Killer, Bepo and Zoro there are also added Mr 1 (Crocodile's right hand) and Vito (Capone's right hand).
Again, all these characters have nothing in common bar the most obvious thing: being the 2nd strongest in their respective crew/group.

Zoro is the second strongest and the vice captain who's capable to decide important stuff regarding the crew. Imo it doesnt even worth making a thread about
 
he is the first mate and right hand confirmed by Oda - that imply he is the second most important member in the crew.
First mate mean the first to join but also the second in command, so take it for what it is :cheers:
No one is saying Zoro isn’t the FM or RH, but when it comes to importance/second in command after Luffy there isn’t one… cuz depending on the situation gets his moment and rise to take a lead. Zoro has never been from start to finish ordering SHs after Luffy. They would rely on him yes, but so would they on other members. Some people gotta live with the fact vice captain title doesn’t exist for the SHs.
