Zoro fans this is your future
I see what Oda did here
Made us think Sanji was 100% going to fight Sommers, everything seemed to match
But then he fights the guy who seemed to be your regular Zoro opponent
Oda switched that logic here and gave Sanji CoC, basically he is telling they are equal to the point they can switch opponents.
In an arc like this, Sanji wouldn't even get a 1vs1 with a start and an end (like Zoro does for the most part, even if its against complete unchallenging foes), but now he did cuz he was confirmed the left hand, Sanji ascended so we can expect new (but logically expected) dynamics with the wings
