You clearly did hear those fodder call out to Marco and Sanji right.
Panel shows Marco and guy calls out to him, next panel shows us Sanji down and guy calls out to him, then we hear the fodder calling out to Marco and then another to Sanji while panicking who will stop King and Queen.
the fodder only call out marco once and marco is already down and the fact that Queen is astonished that he's even alive proves that even more
then the panel switched to sanji who's huffing and fodder asks him if he's ok .. then sanji says "
Fighting both of them together is kinda tough " again the present participle "fighting" refers to whats going on and the fact that he's huffing indicates that he just got blown away by the 2
f Marco was down for a while then the fodder wouldn’t have asked him for help since he would have been down already for some time.
I mean the other fodder also calls out to Sanji the same way they called out to Marco, nothing about those 2 panels is different except the part Sanji says fighting the 2 calamities is difficult, which implies Marco and Sanji were fighting them before going down and King and Queen proceeding to attack all the traitors.
the fact that one fodder says "WHERE IS MARCO" means that he had no idea what happend to him.. if he knew he was down he wouldn't call him.. which is exactly why the next samurai says that
he's at his limits already meaning marco hasn't been doing anything about them commanders running a muck and frying fodders ..
there is a logical gap between marco's panel and sanji's panel thematically
Fodder: HE IS AT HIS LIMIT
ALREADY
Sanji:
CRAP FIGHTING BOTH OF THEM TOGETHER IS KINDA TOUGGH. (people say the "kuso" is somehting sanji says always which is a false interpretation of the context Kuso marimo = Shitty mosshead which is just a metaphor for insult , kussoooo=dammit or CRAP (which excalims how arduous doing something is , its just a matter of context)
what this means is sanji understands how hard it is to fight both of them since h just tried and got blown away.
already
/ɔːlˈrɛdi/
adverb
1.
before or by now or the time in question.
compared to the adverb that refers to "been some time" in context used here rather than exclaiming "he's at his limit already?!"
fighting in sanji's dialogue refers to present contemporary situation
Logically if marco and sanji fight both king and queen there is no doubt sanji and Macro will prevail... but in this context marco is at his limit already so sanji is doing the solo work here
henceforth, marco was down already and sanji had to take over and he fought but got thrown back , Queen is astonised that marco is healed up and alive meaning he wasn't just a moment ago..
what further proves that sanji fought both of them while marco was down and healing
is him approaching king when king was about to attack zoro's group ..if sanji knew marco was there up and ok why would he dash towards zoro? why not keep queen at bay ?
