The portrayal is kind of huge for lucci he was confident he can solo a yonko crew beside the captain and was also able to fight say yonko and turn him into an old man winning say encounter. This portrayal is also supported by the fact CPO was able to make the blackbeard pirates run away and lucci is their most formidable agent beside kaku. So him being capable to take on many commenders level simultanuously is indeed possible on top of being the clear leader of the elite cpo send to egghead taking only order from saturne like how kizaru is the one in charge of the marine. I expect a bounty worth of someone who can solo multiple commender level after this.
Yeah actually CP0 kizaru and saturn are the only threatens is not fair to make a comparation between CP0 and VA for examples I really don't understand why people love to make fun of CP0 they are the highest organization of the wg just look how oda have treated them since the time skip and lucci/kaku seems to be the bosses awaken zoans with rokushiki and haki
If you think of it the zoro vs lucci kind of makes sense
Lucci and kaku only had interaction with zoro and luffy
animal leopard tiger
Lucci wants to kill the crew and take robin zoro is the one on charge to take command and protect it
zoro praised vivi while lucci is the one who kidnapped her
If loda focus on this fight and doesn't make it offpanel it could gave character moments to zoro
