Current Events Why King vs Sanji made more sense then Sanji vs Queen...

[Shepherd]

That attack that just scars kaido kills eos sanji
The fact is even with a broken body zoro can kill sanji instantly.
Yes blocked for a second
No where does law move anyone but himself.
Kidd thanks zoro not law cause zoro bought him the time to jump out the way NO ONE says anything to law.
Law himself said zoro took the attack.
So what will he do just die ? Luffy has fs and still couldn't dodge.

Marco and jozu aren't equals either

They are, Oda introduced them as a pair and gave Jozu an overpowered DF and feats just like Marco.

 

[Monkey D. Luffy]

If they weren't equals, Oda wouldn't introduce them and showcase them as a pair just like he did with Marco and Jozu. In this instance Oda even threw Jack in there as a weakling below both King and Queen who make up their own tier.

That's not showcasing them as equals, that's showcasing them as Kaido's number twos and threes. If they were equals, King wouldn't have the "King" rank.

No they aren't. Stop talking shit. Marco was hyped more than any other division commander

where was jozu when gorosei talked about marco being capable of defeating bb with the remenants?
where is jozu whe marco is said to be wb s right hand man
where is jozu in wano? mf lost his arm
why shanks asked marco to join the crew and not jozu

 

[Finalbeta]

Marco's portrayal is crystal clearly better than Jozu's. He became the unofficial Vice- Captain and First Mate of the Whitebeard Pirates and his feats were more consistent expecially for the PayBack incident.

 

[Monkey D. Luffy]

If King equals Queen, then Katakuri equals Smoothie.

 

[Shepherd]

That's not showcasing them as equals, that's showcasing them as Kaido's number twos and threes. If they were equals, King wouldn't have the "King" rank.

By your logic Oda should have portrayed Jack alongside Queen and King as Kaido's number ones, two's, there's. But no, he showed only King and Queen, both bickering and looking down upon Jack, as equals in their own tier.

Just like above Vista, Jozu and Marco are paired and showcased in a tier of their own as equals even though Marco is exactly stronger.

 

[Patryipe]

In their fantasies, Sanji is already fighting Kaido on rooftop and winning. :yasu:

 

[Shepherd]

If King equals Queen, then Katakuri equals Smoothie.

Smoothie and Kata are on the same tier but Kata is exactly stronger.

sanji gonna join the rooftop fight because zolo is there to

 

[Monkey D. Luffy]

You're going into confirmation bias territory. That isn't portraying King and Queen as equals, it's portraying them as above the Disaster we saw in Zou Arc.

 

[Shepherd]

He is but Jozu is clearly in the same fighting range as Marco, I mean the guy attacked Akainu head on, Akainu, took Mihawk's attack intended for Whitebeard with little difficulty, OP devilfruit, etc.

 

[Monkey D. Luffy]

Smoothie and Kata are on the same tier but Kata is exactly stronger.

Just like King is exactly stronger than Queen.

 

[Finalbeta]

sanji gonna join the rooftop fight because zolo is there to

He might hope to find a lady to save.

Is it confirmation bias that Oda also had King and Queen standing side-by-side at the execution as if they were equals? Or how about when Marco beat King and Queen, showing them both knocked down, as equals?

Oda portrays them side-by-side at every opportunity, narratively it only makes sense if they were in the same fighting range because if they weren't, their clear rivalry wouldn't work

Just like King is exactly stronger than Queen.

Yes, he is.

But Queen is still on King's general level, that is what allows him to bicker and stand up to King compared to Jack who is subservient to King, as well as all the lower Flying Six who can only fight their way to reach him.


In essence, King and Queen's dynamic only works BECAUSE they are roughly equal.

 

[Finalbeta]

took Mihawk's attack intended for Whitebeard with little difficulty

That was a no named slash as far as we witnessed, despite it was meant otherwise but this is Oda and PIS, so I never conferred a lot of weight to such feat. Also, little difficulty strikes as a plain exaggeration in my vision.

 

[Just a member]

King is a swordsman, or at least when he gets serious he is a swordsman. It is the same as bean Kata and serious Kata (mochi powers+FS). Then he is the right hand, vice captain and that together with the sword screams Zoro. Also we already had a clash between King and RS Sanji and that was almost as short and brutal as the 1st Kaido vs Luffy.

Anyway it was almost sure Sanji would get Queen since Oda recipe has been this since the beginning even if at certain points I admit the chances rised (like when Zoro was almost kaput after tanking the hakai, so both a Zoro too injured tonfight King and Zoro getting an amount of hype way above beating a YC1 all in the space of few panels).

Mihawk's intention, however, was to measure the difference between him and Whitebeard so there was clearly some power behind that attack.

Jozu has an overpowered devilfruit that negates slashes, that alone along with his high speed and physical power should scale him around Marco.

 

[Monkey D. Luffy]

Yes to both.

Oda portrays them side-by-side at every opportunity, narratively it only makes sense if they were in the same fighting range because if they weren't, their clear rivalry wouldn't work

Again, Oda puts them side-by-side to portray them as Kaido's top two men. It has nothing to do with them being equals.

So buggy and shanks are equals too?
How about jabra and lucci ?
