Questions & Mysteries Will Zoro and Sanji unlock CoC in this arc?

One thing that really irks me off about the Zoro & Sanji fanbase is the sheer favoritism & utter lack of objectiveness from a large majority of posters on both sides (particularly the Zoro fanbase - but I guess that isn’t really surprising given that it occupies a very large majority of the forum) and why I can’t really be arsed anymore participating in Zoro & Sanji related debates.

Rant aside, like I’ve already stated in the thread prior to this, I think both are more than qualified to have it.

1. Leadership Skills
Both have demonstrated good leadership skills at times when they’ve had to take the helm when Luffy couldn’t. Zoro has more of those with the crew, whereas Sanji has some with the crew & some outside of it (for example leading the marines on PH). Given the nature of Wano, Zoro prolly gets some feats with non-crew members as well. At the very least it’s been foreshadowed on Zou.

2. Both have demonstrated very strong wills, be it persevering for days on days through hunger or standing up to Kuma, willing to sacrifice themselves for their crew-mates even whilst battered & beaten.

3. Special bloodline
Sanji is Royalty & Zoro’s might have originated from the Shimotsuki clan, a clan that boasts the strongest Samurai on Wano & one which Ryuma is from.

Only thing tho, is that I feel it might be a tad too late for Oda to give it to either or both but we’d see. I’d personally prefer Oda to focus on their respective Haki specialities instead but again we shall see ^^
 
While the other strawhats other than luffy honestly makes it feel a bit less special in my opinion zoro, sanji, and usopp are the highest contenders of the crew.

While i think itd be badass if vivi got it somehow.
Also while jinbei is an amazing leader himself i doubt hed get it

Zoro's definitely gonna get it if any do especially cause of ray and kata
I think sanji also has a possible contender of getting it because germa potential and his leadership and skill to make hella unlikely allies
And usopp might only because he lied about hahimg it lol
 
T
for people who have developed CoC they normally showcased a strong conviction throughout their entire life.
willingness to discard their own life while pursuing their dream.

Ace had this.
Luffy and Zoro both have this.
Sanji does not. Usopp does not (its not so clear though).

Sanji even suggested to Zoro that he should stop chasing his dream if it meant sacrificing his life. you will never read lines like this from conquerors.

the most glaring reason why Zoro has the highest probability to gain CoC at some point is the parallels to Roger and Rayleigh.
Rogers partner has CoC, so most likely Luffys partner will have it aswell.
also, Zoro is going to end up at the top of his respective category. WSS.
 
Zoro could get it, he seems to have the qualities. The most important thing he has is the parallel to Rayleigh. If the first mate and vice captain of the Pirate King had it, makes sense that the first mate and vice captain of the next Pirate King would have it. Between that and the qualities he possesses, I think he could. Nothing to do with either Oden or Enma though, that’s just projecting for confirmation.

Sanji won’t get it. He doesn’t have the qualities, none of the buildup, and I don’t think people get that bloodlines as it relates to “royalty” don’t actually matter, as I see it’s brought up a lot whenever Sanji is mentioned.
 
Problem wih Zoro having it would be that it would be out of blue. He trained 2 years, haki specifically, so why didnt we get a glimpse yet? He should have it imo but i dont think he will. Sanji definitely no. Maybe Usopp? Probably not either. Yamato if she joins?
