Law doesnt counter Zoro as a swordsman tho, he's more of a DF-focused fighter who also has a sword technique, i mean being a swordsman is not his signature or strongest identity.
So....that's KIIIIIIIIINDA false.....because they would help Momo and Kinemon on PH anyway, go to Dressrosa to find Kanjuro, then fight Doflamingo there, then go to Zou to find Raizo, then learn about the Mink stuff there, then go free Wano from Kaido.
The "Pirate Alliance" and "Samurai Rescue" are two independent plots that ended up leading to the same place, but take either one of them, and the "path to Kaido/Wano" would remain largely the same.
This is logical. PreTS all the glories went to Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji. Nowadays, it spread to Law instead of Sanji, so it's normal for some peeps to dislike this change.
Do you know the two terms, moving goalpost and reaching?
By your logic, guess who made the Straw Hats arrive near Punk Hazard?
Yeah, not Law.
The moment SH appears nearby and get that distress signal, they would reach Punk Hazard. With their savior persona, the children and Momo will be rescued, and this subplot sooner or later will link them to Kaido & Wano.

In Punk Hazard, Luffy states that his goal is defeating the Yonko. Shanks being the last. So, in the long run, SH and Kaido will have subplot, even if they arrived in somewhere else beside PH. Again, with SH persona as savior, Wano will be saved either way, even if they don't have any connections.

Yes, the fact that Law involved is true. However, what you posted earlier is "without Law,....." which is false. Law is not the initiator nor the sparks, he speed up the Kaido & Wano connection.
I actually understand what you're trying to convey. Law does affect the postTS plotline significantly. Without him, the SH would just freely hop into one island or another. With him, the SH has clearer goal and shorter timeline. So, Law does contribute to the narrative.
However, your post earlier stated that without Law, SH won't connect to Kaido/Wano, which is not true (my post above).

Law does not put them all together.
1. SH came for the distress signal
2. Smoker came for the SH
3. Doffy came for Caesar
4. Kinemon can be cut by Law, but the one who pieces him together is the SH.
Law is not the centerpiece. If Law calls the SH in #1, Smoker gets intrigued by Law & SH conversation in #2, and Doffy feels something off with Law in #3, then yeah, Law IS the centerpiece.
Yes, Law is on panel so by that logic he is involved in the story. That doesn’t mean Law is making any straw hats less vital to their captain so he’s not “intervening on straw hat moments.” Straw hat moments are just that.
If you’re saying you want Oda to spend more time developing the Straw Hats only, I think that is unrealistic because the story is encompassing the entire world, Oda can’t just focus on 10 people forever. He got to develop and utilize other characters as well. If anything Law helps the story. I think Law helps Robin’s plot for example, by actively giving her someone who is a D. And connected to learning about history, unlike Luffy.
Also, Sanji was never a tactician, he was a spy guy and still is, his character is after James Bond. Bond was not a tactician. He was a resourceful and intelligent field agent, just like Sanji, who comes up with things on the fly to help the straw hat crew. Law is a chess master, calculated, planner type. Not like Sanji at all.
Oda can't focus on the same 10 people forever but always seem to focus on law more than any other straw hat outside the monster trio whenever he's present

yes, Strawhats absolutely could find a way to reach Kaido without Law, but the truth that Oda gave us is happened went through Law, any other posibility is headcanon, since thats not happening. it doesnt mean he's the center, no, but he connect the puzzle to reach Kaido.
yeah, i'm not saying he would last long or have a major impact to the plot but he's the starter for all this conflict bro lmao and thats not even negative like what this thread maker described

Alright then, which of my statements in that post is headcanon? If you want, I can provide chapter number & page number for those points.
If you're referring to the statement starting with "if Law calls...", of course that's headcanon. You stated that
"Law put all of them into that condition (Stawhats, Kinemon, Dofflamingo, even Smoker)."
And I'm giving you example, if Law put them all together, the scenarios I provided will happen. But those scenarios DIDN'T happen (you said it yourself that it's headcanon), which is WHY your statement above is false/means Law DID NOT bring them together.
1. Straw Hats Pirates arrived near Punk Hazard and gets a call by someone, NOT Law (Chapter 655 page 5). They go there because of the distress call.
2. Smoker steer himself and the ship to Punk Hazard because he intercept that call, NOT Law (Chapter 655 page 9). Smoker go there because he wants to get the Straw Hats, again, NOT Law.
These two points alone is already proving that your "Law put all of them..." as false.
Then I reply (simplified version) that the SH went to Punk Hazard NOT because of Law. The SH (Sanji) saving Kinemon & Nami saving the children happened WITHOUT Law's interference. With these alone, the Strawhats would have connection with Wano/Kaido.
