    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    The issue with Cracker isn't just breaking his biscuits but not getting overwhelmed by an army of soldiers. "Breath of things" is a mess of a power that has been retconned in the worst way possible, so allow me to not pay it much attention (I understand what you mean, don't get me wrong, but I...

    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    Then I understood you wrong, but this is still a stretch and I personally doubt he would "easily beat" any of Linlin's commanders back then if Luffy was meant for Katakuri. If Katakuri was Luffy's Doflamingo, Lucci or Crocodile, Zoro would have probably taken on a Pica, a Kaku or a Bonez.

    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    Sure, that's the reason. Zoro's pressence would have turned Whole Cake into a confrontation arc ending with the Big Mom Pirates defeated. I'm saying that characters grow naturally as the story progresses, that Dressrosa happened close to a decade ago and that, on top of that, he received a...

    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    Not in the slightest. None of them could face Big Mom and Luffy wanted to take on Katakuri to prove himself and grow. Zoro would be a non-factor and probably end up with a secondary enemy, as usual, if he even did instead of just escaping like the rest with short skirmishes in the process.

    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    Doesn't really change my point because I'm not denying that strength plays its part but stating it isn't the main factor. Villain. Villain. This wouldn't even be a strength-based argument either and could be seen as the consequence of my take on the events. First of all, they probably...

    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    Out of those three, one is a villain, the other is missing in action and the other has been occupied helping people against a virus. And don't get me wrong, strength is a factor, but I doubt it's the driven factor behind this scenario; hence why this is pretty much the only time Zoro is facing...

    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    The point isn't whether Zoro wasn't allowed to fight Doflamingo because he would have beat him (very debatable) nor his "even clash" with Fujitora ("even": Fujitora was fine, Zoro was damaged). The point is that, in spite of these headcanons of yours, Oda never made the slightest effort to give...

    Character Discussion Oda had to exclude Zoro from WCI because he was too strong

    Zoro was in Dressrosa and, instead of creating a second Doflamingo or putting him against Fujitora as his serious versus, he got Pica. I can't believe some of you guys truly believe Zoro would have changed Whole Cake Island's plot from a escape to an actual confrontation (and, on top of that, I...
