I literally believe he’ll be the fleet admiral and comparable to the likes of Garp EOS. But the idea that he’ll get to that level during the BB arc is wild because that means he’ll be about on par with Luffy at the time which is something Coby has never been.
He should never be at Luffy's level.

The gap and potential difference are so huge that if oda is sane then he should never portray coby at Luffy's level

Coby will always remain at least a few arcs behind Luffy. That’s why current Coby has Dressrosa Luffy level portrayal. And EOS Coby will have maybe Elbaf Luffy level portrayal.

Coby will always be playing catch up with Luffy, he’ll never be shoulder to shoulder

He doesn't even have Dressrosa level Luffy portrayal as of now...



And, even though I say if kuzan stays with BB then most likely he will go down to Coby but this thought gives me headache...

Eh he got the 500 Million berry bounty which is Dressrosa Luffy level portrayal. People just overrate Dressrosa Luffy imo.

And imo smoker is the most likely candidate because Smoker and Kuzan had that moment in punk hazard which actually set up a narrative for these characters and Smoker is the only marine who’s ever portrayed shoulder to shoulder with Luffy.

pizarro is 100x bigger than pica in dressrosa so his current feat is 100x dressrosa zoro portrayal at least.
What kind of logic is that lol

The thing is Luffy had G4 + haki and he was able to last against Doffy


Coby destroyed Pizza role arm and that's it...


To me, Kuzan - coby has better buildup which overshadows Smoker - kuzan.


Kuzan protected Smoker and called him a friend.


But with Coby - it's Personal..old apprentice vs New Apprentice after all its Kuzan who took down Garp in front of Coby

Yeah but that was only after Doffy was nerfed by Law and even then the entire country had to protect Luffy, otherwise Doffy would’ve given Luffy the law treatment like he would to Coby as well.

And as for the Kuzan fight I think of it more as who’s narrative this fight is more impactful for and it’s Smokers for me. Despite Coby being trained by Garp, he’s never been portrayed as Luffys Garp. And smoker winning this fight would put him on that prime Garp level just as Luffy beating Blackbeard would put him on Roger’s. There’s also Smokers entire character arc being about justice which would make this a cool clash between two people who strongly embody justice but their way of going about it greatly differed where Kuzan abandoned the marines and Smoker works within it. This also narratively parallels Luffy vs Blackbeard as two people who strongly embody freedom with two ways of approaching that ideal.

Coby’s a hero who protects people, Kuzan isn’t a villain for him to defeat.
