You can only say hair here. Everyone has the same faceshape in OP. And Ray doesnt have the same wrinkles.
Literally the same facial structure, similar wrinkle placements, eye scar, as well as general eyes lol. If you're denying Oda didn't make him a beard-less Rayleigh in that scan, you're lying to yourself. That's as close to Rayleigh's appearance as a character has ever been.
Yh the rest is cope sadly. Closest to a RHM....isnt a RHM. Sanji is equally as close as theyre both Wings.
Except false. Vivre Card explicitly states that Zoro is the one takes the mantle of VC. Just like every official or unofficial source, including Manga, puts Zoro as closest to Luffy's RHM/VC and Sanji not even once- not even remotely once. Just like how Oda explicitly draws everyone and their mother mistaking Zoro for VC and Sanji not even remotely once even when he had higher bounty.
You can play mental gymnast to come up with some excuse for everything, but Zoro is definitely the only one painted as VC-like for SHP lol
Oda paints them as wings, but he paints Zoro even further as RHM/VC-like often. There's a reason why when Sanji and Zoro both stood up for the ultimate sacrifice in TB as wings, he decided to only make Zoro go through with it instead of having them share it.
When has Zoro ever reffered to as his partner ?
