sry forgot to add you
Seems you need to add yourself
It just would make no sense why Oda portrays Luffy so weak when he is the future pirate king and many of the enemies(Caeser Clown, Hody, Cracker etc.) he faces should be easily doable by him... a good example for that bad portrayal is the Apoo attack or getting one shotted by Kaido just to show his strength and then have Zoro kill or wound Kaido is just sad. Oda please stop with these Luffy team fights, let the man do his fights alone without any bullshit, like the Lucci fight which is praised as the best fight. Maybe its just Odas style to draw out Luffys fights so much. I would have no problem with Zoro wounding Kaido, if there was enough groundwork(strength wise) laid out by oda...how can he waste a decade without any good Zoro fights and splitting the crew was an even worse decision. I rly don't like the whole situation.

??

They have always been portrayed as near equals since Whisky Peak

Luffy fought Lucci on EL but it was extreme difficulty. Asura one shot Kaku

They undertook similarly good TS trainings

Luffy learned FS and advanced CoA, Zoro caught up with his Enma training which was an actual legit solid training unlike Udon's
I don't think Luffy is that much stronger than Zoro. I just have never gotten the vibe that he was ever stronger than Luffy.
Lemme put it like this, If Luffy was a 100, Zoro would be a 90 - 95 and Sanji would be 75 - 80, Nami 30 e.t.c

yep still stand by that what's wrong about it?
Whats wrong is everything you said is wrong.
Luffy isnt soloing kaido
Zoro will hurt kaido after luffy got oneshot.
Looks like someone cant read the story.

Now using a named attack and had a dead equality in strength is a gag scene now give me one gag scene oda went so far in it to make the characters using their basic techniques genius or


Nami was the only gag in that whole fight. They were as serious as it gets.


I honestly thought that was a gag scene even then how is couple of minutes spose to show us who was stronger.

Maybe you should learn how to read no where did I mention that Luffy should solo Kaido. I even mentioned that I would have no problems with Zoro wounding Kaido with the right feats.
:seriously:
