1. You guys take arbitrary power scaling way too seriously. Chopper fought Kumadori, who was stronger than Fukuro. Chopper and Franky were consistently placed on par with each other pre-timeskip. Even post timeskip, Franky's radical beam 1 shot a New Fishamn Pirate captain, just like Chopper's monster point took out another, just like Brook 1 shot another. "Weak Trio" is a construct determined by Chopper's tenacity to get scared. It has NOTHING to do with combat ability. Brook and Chopper BOTH lost to Perospero with ease, so the same guy you say is on par with Franky also lost as badly with Chopper against Perosero. This doesn't work for me.
2. I didn't prove or support anything. The Numbers are not important in this. 5 of them have been treated as 1 shot fodder. The other 5 likely are not much different and have yet to be relevant at all this arc. Don't expect big things from them, you will end up being disappointed.
3. This is your opinion, just like its mine to think they are fighting the Numbers
4. This your opinion, just like its mine to assume he's fighting Chopper.
5. Not sure how Yamato fighting Jack and being a potential strawhat has anything to do with Drake. Drake isn't a strawhat and wont be so I'm not sure I get this logic.
6. No lol. There isn't. There is literally zero narrative tying Chopper to the numbers. Chopper is literally with Drake. Drake is protecting Chopper from a virus that infects people to attack each other. 6 of the 7 non-monster trio Strawhats are CURRENTLY fighting 5 of the 6 F6 members. Drake is the last F6 member and he's with Chopper, the last non-monster trio Strawhat. Hence why I think Chopper vs Drake is possible.
7. Made up connection to the numbers.
8. Made up powerscaling headcanon. Again, Franky 1 shot a number, so I guess Franky has G4 level attacks.
You guys need to stop making headcanon powerscaling. There is nothing implying Chopper isn't as strong as Franky or Brook. There are key scenes and events in the manga that have actually shown Chopper is as strong as Franky and Brook. Stop confusing Choppers scared personality with his fighting ability. He's ALWAYS been a powerhouse.
If Nami and Usopp are fighting 2 F6 members, and Jinbe is also fighting a F6 member, than Chopper can 100% fight Drake, a F6 member. Drake was never called the strongest F6 member, he was never called the 2nd strongest or the 3rd. He never was called the weakest either. Its arbitrary headcanon to depict him as something that is IMPOSSIBLE for Chopper to fight.
1. franky would 100% do better against perospero because of his laser beams
2. Only one is you who’s gonna be disappointed with choppers fight mot me. Numbers are important to the story and Oda will have chopper fight them because of that. They even have the same form monster point=number. Do you think they will just disappear?
3. that doesn’t matter. Chopper can’t beat drake not possible. That’s something a chopper fanboy would say. Yeah definitely chopper is beating drake with no haki. How the hell would he even hurt him? If he goes into dinosaur form chopper can’t even touch him.
4. Everything else is just false but you will see it soon when chopper fights the numbers the most obvious fight right after Yamato vs Jack. These two matchups have been obvious since forever
Lemme tell you why chopper will fight the numbers
1. The numbers are a big mystery and have to do with ancient giants
2. The numbers can speak but they just keep saying their name so we don’t understand what they are saying so it’s possible chopper can communicate with them.
3. Monster point looks like a number
4. Where are the remaining numbers?
5. Chopper makes the most sense because it would can give him a chance to awaken haki and fighting the numbers makes sense since it’s easy to draw
6. chopper can compete with drake use your head. How the hell is chopper hurting drake in dinosaur form? How is chopper fighting drake in hybrid? How is choppe fighting drake even when he’s in base.
7. drake already has multiple plot lines leading him to take down queen. Especially the plot line of a Tobi roppo taking down a calamity. The most obvious is drake and the fact he has tons of knowledge on queens weapons
8. the numbers are strong if you actually go back you can see they are strong and how much destruction they can cause.
9. why would Oda regulate drake to being taken down by chopper out of all people? If anything it makes more sense for it to be franky
10. Chopper vs drake does nothing for the story and chopper should be getting one shotted and the only way you say no is if your delusional and if the fight happened it would be clowned because it makes zero sense

The problem i've found is that if someone believes Chopper vs Drake can happen (which again, is based on him getting infected, I'm not even saying its guaranteed to happen), it immediately creates issues for those who want Sanji vs King, because Drake wouldn't be available to fight Queen.
I've found that the only people who truly dislike the idea of Chopper getting a strong F6 opponent are those who want Sanji vs King to happen, which really has no direct connection outside of some arbitrary clash they had 20 chapters ago, or them being able to fly or use fire attacks smh. Either that or powerscaling theorists who believe Chopper is just weak as shit or Drake is just as strong as god.
Like I've said, these matchups are going to hurt people, and its only going to get worse the next few months. They already have. I already have seen salty headcanoneers bitch about Jinbe vs Who's Who or Franky vs Sasaki because they thought Jinbe was "too strong" or Franky was "too weak" to face either of the opponents they are facing now.
Edit: All I'm saying is look at the color spread this week. Once again Oda is displaying the Beast Pirate executives, including Drake, as a force to be reckoned with. If Oda really wanted Drake to be a full blown ally, he would have separated this character from the rest of the beast pirates entirely. His theme as a Beast Pirate, his powers, and the fact that he is a current ally protecting Chopper in lieu of saving people from a virus that makes you lose control could entirely be central to setting up them fighting.
Again, just a guess, but to shit on that idea because "Chopper too weak/Drake too strong" is a weird concept when this has been proven wrong over and over again with the F6 and other Strawhats.
Huh?
Sanji vs king clashed
King and sanji have skulls on their uniforms
King can only be taken down by a straw hat since his character has to be explored
king and sanji have the same stare
both king and sanjis goals directly conflict even down to momo.
When sanji and his family sat to eat dinner you could see a beast and behind it was a bitch with 66 on it and skull masks
no one can handle king besides sanji under the roof
if you haven’t realized yet but choppers fighting style is punching and kong fu he shouldn’t be able to fight drake. What is he doing to zoan drake??!!
Sanji vs king has ton of set up that people constantly bring up. If you still deny sanji vs king your delusional. The only way it doesn’t happen is if the raid fails

Also why wouldn’t Oda include drake in a color spread with the crew?
