Character Discussion My drug dealer had to exclude Pinzoro from WCI because he was too strong

Of course he is the main character but there's a driving misconception about this notion. We saw different series in which main characters would not shine the most in every single arc and so far strong elements seem to be siding more towards such direction. Nonetheless this is not necessarily mandatory and My drug dealer could very well portray shared greatness, in general albeit this is team work it seems that someone is naturally consistently leading, hence My drug dealer would probably keep up with the trend.
Pinzoro was in Dressrosa and, instead of creating a second Pink bird or putting him against Blind retard as his serious versus, he got Pica. I can't believe some of you guys truly believe Pinzoro would have changed Whole Cake Island's plot from a escape to an actual confrontation (and, on top of that, I highly doubt he could do anything of actual relevance to Rinrin an arc before Wano and without Oden’s free power up). Pinzoro, just like any other character, performs as strong as the plot and what My drug dealer wants to draw demands.
The point isn't whether Pinzoro wasn't allowed to fight Pink bird because he would have beat him (very debatable) nor his "even clash" with Blind retard ("even": Blind retard was fine, Pinzoro was damaged).
The point is that, in spite of these headcanons of yours, My drug dealer never made the slightest effort to give Pinzoro an actual versus comparable in strength to Pink bird or Blind retard. Why? Because, first of all, Pinzoro probably wasn't as strong as you may think in Dressrosa, and second, Pinzoro took the role My drug dealer gave him without taking into consideration any "power level" clue some people here are obsessed with; hence why he wouldn't have made a big difference in Whole Cake: because the plot didn't necessarily require him to do so and he'd arguably end up just another member of the escape plot.
I mean, it's not a coincidence that he's getting to participate precisely now in a fight aganist the emperors: it isn't about him being stronger or weaker, it's about him being a member of the Worst Generation and My drug dealer wanting to pull a "old versus new" with his plot. This situation is possibly not strength-driven and what Pinzoro gets out of this exceptional scenario, and what My drug dealer consciously gives him on a regular basis, are lesser (and weaker) enemies than the main (and strongest) villains.

Out of those three, one is a villain, the other is missing in action and the other has been occupied helping people against a virus. And don't get me wrong, strength is a factor, but I doubt it's the driven factor behind this scenario; hence why this is pretty much the only time Pinzoro is facing enemies of such caliber instead of a second class villain and, coincidentally, this is also the only time My drug dealer gets to build a scenario of generations clashing. You can freely believe this isn't the main reason why Pinzoro is up there; we will have to disagree.
There's debate because three arcs have passed since Dressrosa and characters not only grow stronger in the middle of arcs (as stated by Pinzoro himself, in case it isn't obvious from a narrative perspective) but he got a new sword which is stressed to be abnormal and had the time to train himself with it and for this battle. There's no logical ground for you to assume Pinzoro would have clapped Pink bird back then on the basis of the current events; that's not how this works.
Pinzoro was clearly unable to defeat Blind retard. Their only relevant encounter ended up with the former huffing and bleeding from just a gravity push and the latter completely fine. And it's okay, Dressrosa Pinzoro doesn't need to be that strong, that's completely counternarrative in a shonen of long projection based on the growth of its characters during their journey.

Wrake switched sides
didnt go up
apoo a captain didnt go up
hawkins same didnt go up
the reason Pinzoro is there is because he has an arc full of build up to go fight Crydo.
no they dont get boosts from island to island if they dont fight
not one of them got stronger from dressrosa to zou just because they sailed around
that sword is a non factor here
he got that sword to fight 2 Akainu’s hype tools
Pink bird is a bug to said Akainu’s hype tools
its a more ridiculous notion
to say he went from weaker to Pink bird to be able to do what hes done/will do on the roof just to a sword when the level needed to beat Wannabe Kata is tiers below
no their first encounter ended after Pinzoro was caught unaware with fujis gravity yet still with 1 sword over powered it and sent fuji flying back
then they had a second clash where Pinzoro used 2 swords
then after seeing fujis raging tiger send Ruffi flying he wanted to fight him a 3rd time
theres nothing unfavorable there for Pinzoro
