Speculations Doc Q may be hunting for...

Just a random guess, among the SH DFs, Chopper's might be specifically hunted by Doc Q... For him to feed to his horse Stronger...

This may be a joke panel but could be a foreshadow:

Good catch!
Doc Q vs Chopper sounds nice!

Yeah I think it's good to be wary of subtle hints and not underestimate anything here. Oda is known for behaving like this IIRC.

Sounds interesting to me…I’ve kinda always expected Chopper to fight Stronger in some capacity, but maybe there’s another DF in the Human-Human class (Sengoku and Onimaru both have different models of same) that the horse will consume between now and when Luffy/Blackbeard finally clash and he’ll be able to face the reindeer as a fellow nightmare creation

Dude this has been on my mind too! My thinking is that Stronger gets a fruit and that will be Chopper’s physical match up, while Doc might use more of those explosives he has or possibly he can make use of poisons for Chopper to also deal with.

I believe it's a locked on matchup...

Agree... That's why I though it might really be the case...

Another option for Doc Q-Stronger tandem would be having the disease/infection DF and the Shinigami DF...
