Present counterarguments or refute my arguments. Don't just leave a condescending one liner — it's rude.
:kriwhat:
Even so he is a Bit rude in doing so it makes sense for him to not say any more. When someone convinces himself that the guy who does not even have a proper sword without his devil fruit available and only uses it against another guy with a sword is a "swordsman" In an ASIAN Manga of an ASIAN author with the Main character swordsmen all practicing kenjutsu then there really is no point in trying to Argue.

But there hasn’t been any obvious different between admirals like there have been YC. The only time we’ve seen admirals fight it’s been a 10 day long battle
And did you See all the Admirals do that? There is the Difference. ;)

We've seen two admiral fleet canditated
Which is awfully similar to how Luffy and Zoro always get portrayed... While Kizaru is very Reminiscent of Sanji. Yet somehow these guys want to tell themselves that Kizaru is like Zoro and what not... Sigh. Honestly (you know who you are) really need to pay more attention to certain Details in the Manga.

Borsalino used a sword in his only serious fight against another top tier
He has a named techniques for creating said sword "Ame no Murakamo".
Said sword is one of Japan's sacred imperial regalia
He is proficient enough as a swordsman to completely stalemate a top tier "pure swordsman" like Rayleigh
I don't see how any of this is supposed to prove that Kizaru is Zoro's opponent when Fujitora is also an extremely proficient swordsman.

He's repeatedly been paired in battle against the second strongest fighters of a pirate crew. With Rayleigh at Sabaody Archipelago. With Marco at Marineford. With Benn Beckman at Marineford.
This isn't really relevant because Fujitora was not part of the Marines at the time, and you don't know who Fujitora would have been paired with at Marineford if he was an Admiral at the time. You also completely ignored Kizaru volunteering to stop Big Mom from sailing to Wano. Is Big Mom the second strongest fighter in her pirate crew?

Borsalino has unresolved conflict with Zoro. He easily defeated him at Sabaody Archipelago. He commented that Zoro must have already been weakened to go down so quickly. A future confrontation would resolve this.
This entire quote applies to Fujitora more. Fujitora has an unresolved conflict with Zoro. They clashed multiple times in Dressrosa and all their clashes were inconclusive. In fact, Zoro had a hungry and bloodlusted look in his eyes and he wanted to fight Fujitora again at the end of Dressrosa.




Borsalino and Zoro seem to occupy similar positions. Borsalino is Sakazuki's strongest subordinate. Zoro is Luffy's strongest subordinate
Do you have proof that Kizaru is stronger than Fujitora and Ryokugyu? Claiming Kizaru is Akainu's strongest subordinate when you don't have proof that Kizaru is stronger than Fujitora and you haven't even seen Ryokugyu's face is a very bold claim to make. You have no idea who the strongest between the three Admirals is, so please don't pretend that you do.

As far as I can tell, the main reason to expect Sanji to be Borsalino's opponent is out of some mistaken belief that Borsalino specialise in kicks/has a kick based fighting style. However, this is a gross misunderstanding of his actual fighting style. Borsalino has literally only ever used his kicks to troll characters that were fodder to him: The Supernova at Sabaody Archipelago. Luffy at Marineford.
There is no misunderstanding. Kizaru does specialize in kicks. But Kizaru also specializes in shooting lasers and he also specializes in swordsmanship. Kizaru is a versatile fighter that excels in multiple forms of combat. You're the one who is ironically downplaying Kizaru by implying his only specialization is in swordsmanship and that his kicks are only fodder control.


Someone might counter that Issho is Zoro's Admiral opponent, but this looks unlikely given that.
Zoro vs Fujitora looks a million times more likely then Zoro vs Kizaru.

Issho has a more fleshed out conflict with Luffy.
Incorrect.

Zoro has clashed with Fujitora on more occasions than Luffy has. I'm not even sure why you're bringing up Luffy because Luffy's admiral opponent is Akainu.

Issho appears to be a Luffy fan.
That didn't stop Fujitora from attempting to harm Zoro when he tried sinking Zoro into the earth with his gravity.

Issho may not remain a soldier for the World Government at the final war
Baseless speculation. It's no different then your claim that Kizaru is stronger than Fujitora and Ryokugyu.

I'm all for it. Borsalino nearly killed Zoro. It was notable because in Sabaody, Zoro allowed himself to become a burden for the crew.


Rayleigh's comment is interesting because he says it in relation to Kizaru attacking Zoro. He went after the bud before it became a flower. But next time they meet, it will have sprouted.

Rayleigh clearly says "buds", not "bud" in the panel that you posted. "Don't pick the BUDS before THEY sprout". That means Rayleigh is referring to the entire Straw Hart Crew and not just Zoro.

Come on zoro clearly gonna fight fujitora he won't join pirates otherwise he could've did that 2-3 years ago, the only reason why zoro fans dont want him to fight fujitora is because hes the weakest admiral, but the gap isn't even noticeable compared to the other 3, Yes sanji will fight Kizaru oda said his specialty is CoO, Sanji gonna be advanced from it/ He is very fast

I don't believe Fujitora or Kizaru are Opponents of Zoro but you actually make good points..:christindeed:

Zoro and Fujitora have way more unfinished business than Zoro and Kizaru have. Those two actually clashed with Swords, and Zoro wanted to try his luck against Fujitora at the end of Dressrosa one last time before departing.

Fujitora is not going to betray the Marines. He got what he wanted with the abolishment of the Shichibukai system. There is no longer a reason for him to go against the WG now that they don't ally themselves with Pirates.

I see your points and they make sense. I have no problem if Akainu-Luffy, Zoro-Kizaru, Sanji-Coby happens at EoS :kayneshrug:There are some potential issue such as Blackbeard being an one arc villain and Mihawk-Zoro not happening after years of buildup.

If this really happens, I promise to wank Kizaru like no one did before, lmfaooo.

  • Why didn't Kaido pick up a sword to fight Oden?
  • Why didn't Garp pick up a sword to fight Roger




He never once fought seriously at Marineford.


He literally only used those attacks against fodder.


The only character that effectively fought Borsalino is Rayleigh.



Yes.


Nope. He's only sniped fodder and when he was trolling his opponents.



By this logic, Mama doesn't use a real sword but one made from her soul. Borsalino's sword is created by one of his signature techniques, and in real life is a national treasure of Japan.

If Hybrid King reveals himself to be a swordsman and Sanji defeats him, I'll be willing to seriously entertain the possibility that non Zoro Strawhats can defeat strong swordsmen. Otherwise, all the formidable swordsmen adversaries have been felled by Zoro.

I already answered this:
Yeah right thanks for making up stuff.
Kizaru only fought Rayleigh with a sword coz Rayleigh uses a sword to fight.
Against wb, no time for that, sniping is the way.

I guess WB, Marco and luffy are all foddees coz kizaru kept using his best attacks on them without a sword.
