Sanji could keep up for 10 chapters in a row and it wouldn't matter if on the 11th chapter he's getting absolutely shit on, blitzed, and overpowered left and right and is forced to use DJ to win. That'd just mean without DJ, he's <<< his opponent when serious.
The length and durations don't decide stuff if one party ends up outright shitting on the other by the end of it lmao.
You can't possibly give an explanation of why Sanji would get spam blitzed and overpowered 4 times in a row if he wasn't significantly weaker.
Glad to agree you're admitting the L by not answering my question regarding Scabbards- who, also btw, dominated Kaido for 3/4 of the fight before getting dunked.
