Then explain why he’s been acting so nonchalant the entirety of the raid. He’s not even bothering to put in any effort. It’s almost as if he considers everyone beneath him and probably has Kaido’s Adv CoC defenses keeping him nice and cozy. Remember the reaction of Big Meme and her kids when they saw King coming towards them? Worry and sheer panic. Meme wanted him on her crew badly.
Literally the only time we see King the least bit concerned is when he was about to get power knee’d by Marco which is moreso him being suprised than worried, I’d say:
Every other instance his face is blank like this:
He has the traits of other Commander level CoC wielding pirates, like Doflamingo and Katakuri, all were unfazed by everything and took no opponent seriously until one worthy foe came along who was as powerful as they were while also being a conqueror, that rival was Luffy for them and it wil be Zoro (and potentially Sanji) for King.
Once Zoro shows off that he can cut fire, stop his named attacks, and coat his swords in conqueror’s haki, only then will King stop fighting in base and go all out.
Maybe he will get pissed off and really start going ham to the point where Zoro actually has to make good on what he said and win by biting King’s throat out after the fight is reduced to two feral beasts lashing out at each other with no style or grace, probably a fist fight too
He appears to already have a wrathful side to him regarding loyalties, that’s another trait of a conqueror subjecting others to his rule.
He will go out in a blaze of glory pushing Zoro to extremist difficulty to secure a victory, or force Lanji to switch in and attain a real W for once.
