, since Zoro easily blocked Scoppers named attack
That's not what Oda fucking says by Nami.
The truth is that you all are copers.
Gaban not being exactly same equal to Ray was indeed well, predictable.
The thing is, he is close.
And you all are trying to gaslight people my making forget that you all said:
Sanji as closer to jinbe than Zoro, then Scpper introduction literally mentions two guys, outside of Roger as being the strongest by far out of the crew (which is exactly what Sanji and Zoro are already at wano, by fighting all stars).
And now Oda punished you all for this, jinbe is frauding and Sanji as I always said is closer to even freaking luffy than the fraudolent fish.
Then you all said Gaban was an irrelevant character, when the flashback put him with Ray, also in charging the Roger pirates, implying similar authority and strength, which he had and you all ignored.
Here you got, left hand man, the term that you all declined it existed, and the wings, because as always you would deny this clear dynamic which Oda decided to give a name too.
Then, as you keep doing, u were saying Gaban wasn't impressive, when without coc he played with Zoro and Luffy forcing them to full power and tag.
Nami words punished your guys agenda.
You always mentioned "partners Dark King and Pirate King, Coc duo"
Wings, counterpart to Rayleigh, true actual duo, Gaban got CoC, Sanji will get CoC.
And Oda cares more about N2 and N3 dynamic, closeness in power and both, together as wings of the pirate king.
Remember, monster trio and wings, I don't see the name about the dynamic Zoro and Luffy you all push about.
Because Zoro is not a second Luffy in the crew, he is like a second Sanji, similar strength, similar authority, a tiny bit a above, a Sanji plus not a Luffy minus.
Accept. This.
Roger 100
Rayleigh 90
Gaban 87.5
Sanji will surpass Mihawk.
