[Theory] Does anyone think that in the M3, Sanji is dropping off the pace?

[Rokudaime Hokage Naruto]

I know there has been no concrete evidence but Oda has been dropping certain hints to Sanji losing ground on Luffy and Zoro.

First of all look at their relative training over the 2 years.

Luffy trained with Rayleigh
Zoro trained with Mihawk

and Sanji, well he did this for 2 years

Neither Luffy or Zoro have struggled against any big guns yet (Luffy mid diffed Chinjao and Zoro has really only been chasing Pika around). However Oda has had Sanji go up against the likes of Vergo and Doflamingo with him breaking his leg against Vergo and getting neg diffed by Doflamingo.

Also Sanji (with Nami in his body) recieves significant damage from Caeser's gastanet

But Luffy shrugged it off like it was nothing.

I believe Oda is dropping subtle hints to Sanji struggling in the new world on purpose to make room for a new member of the crew. One that is stronger than Sanji but weaker than Zoro. That person could be....

Maybe Bartolomeo will be the new recruit .

I'm sorry, but you're signature needs to be changed...

Ot: sure, why not? I never really cared for spiral-brows anyways

 

[Hexuze]

I kinda felt it was unfair that Zoro got trained by Mihawk and Luffy got trained by Rayleigh but you have to realize that Sanji doesn't want to be the strongest. Zoro wants to the strongest/greatest swordsman and Luffy wants to become strong to protect his friends and dream. I believe Sanji will get his badass moments/victories and it's just the start of the TS so I don't think it's fair to judge yet. I also don't think jinbei will join the SH's, he's pretty annoying and it will mess up the M3 balance by kicking Sanji out of it. Sanji never really had an actually fight since the TS either most of them were small skirmishes.

Yeah I get that it's not Sanji's aim to be strong and i'm not bashing him or anything. I'm just saying it feels like Oda is doing this on purpose to allow a new character to break into the M3.

Why would he need to change it?

Anyway I dont see Oda removing Sanji from the top of the SH's,it doesnt seem like something he would do.
We will see soon enough,the situation calls for them to go all out

 

[I'm stupid real stupid]

Sanji is not weak...his enemy is simply stronger

 

[I'm stupid real stupid]

Maybe Bartolomeo will be the new recruit .

What? bartolomeo wont abandoned his own crew just like that!

 

[silmarill]

I'm on season two can't wait to watch more but should I watch all 600 plus or should I skip anything thanks

I reccomend u skip the fillers

50,51, 54-60, 93,98,99,101,102, 131-143, 196-206, 213-216, 220-226, 279-283, 291-292, 303, 317-319, 326-336, 382-384, 406-7, 426-429, 453-458, 492, 497-499, 506, 542, 575-578, 590, 626-628


they aren't bad, but not neccesarry either, the choice is yours

Ot: I understand what u mean but it's understandable, Luffy want's to become the PK, basically strongest person in the world, Zoro is a swordsman, Sanji is a cook, U see the difference? he will remain strong however

 

[Hexuze]

Yeah I get that it's not Sanji's aim to be strong and i'm not bashing him or anything. I'm just saying it feels like Oda is doing this on purpose to allow a new character to break into the M3.

I got a bit butt-hurt lol. Oda did it worse for Smoker.

IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY ONE PIECE TO THE MAX PLEASE AVOID SPOILERS!!!!

OT : YOUR ON SEASON TWO? WHY IS ACE YOUR AVATAR? HE COMES IN SEASON 4 or 5

 

[akimofnevis]

Sanji needs to start using his hands , he needs to learn fisherman karate , it would of been great if Jimbie trained sanji

 

[Waindo]

I don't agree on Sanji getting behind. But I do agree on new recruit/s.

Fingers crossed for Bart and Viola...I wouldn't be suprised if Sabo joins, he was not reintroduced just to go off panel with revs again imho.

 

[Rokudaime Hokage Naruto]

Haha yeah fair shout. Maybe that was to remove the idea that Smoker was to Luffy as Garp was to Roger?

 

[Hexuze]

I still think that Smoker will be the next Garp but I don't want history to exactly repeat itself. I want to see Smoker going against the government and it does seem like it's going to end up like that.

BUUURN


OT well sanji was always behind zoro and luffy...its only the gap which has increased a bit. but that was in progress since zoro took all that damage from kuma...

 

[I'm stupid real stupid]

Haha yeah fair shout. Maybe that was to remove the idea that Smoker was to Luffy as Garp was to Roger?

Lol smoker as garp? smoker is fodder to anyone with busoshoku haki

Go reread Alabasta and Ace's introduction

No Sabo is NOT joining, no way
