I can see this happening in the future, especially after Usopp and Luffy fought. This made me realize there is should be more depth to the crew than everybody always getting along, all best friends have their own feuds. And I think we're long overdue for one, but I still see it coming. It would be good for there character development so that they move past the constant rivalry thing (not to say this will end their rivalry altogether, but will give them a chance to demonstrate their chemistry to cooperate more), and a good chance to demonstrate Luffys leadership ability. He's obviously not the talk it out type so I think he would grant the 2 permission to a fair match, and stop it himself when he feels the need to.

Now I can't come up with any specific predicaments that could allow this to happen, but maybe Zoro makes a decision that harms a lady for the sake of the crew, and Sanji argues that he could have stopped her another way and they start to seriously fight. Or the other way around and Zoro doesn't like something Sanji did.

But what are your thoughts?

Zoro would kill him so Luffy wouldn't let it happen

This actually happened in a movie. They fought for awhile and Sanji lost his concentration then Zoro said "Sanji, you should never lose your focus when fighting a swordsman" then Zoro knocked him down. That was non-canon though. Sanji got low-diffed in that fight.

And i doubt they'll ever seriously fight the way Luffy and Usopp fought. They might have a little scuffle but they'll never fight with killing intent.

Sanji has been fighting seriously, it's just that he's being a lot more reckless now. It's just bad matchups for Sanji, whereas Zoro fought weaker opponents than Sanji did (post-TS). IMO, it's Zoro AND Luffy that should be fighting more seriously. Also, Oda needs to give Sanji a fair fight during the next arc.

There's been speculations that Zoro will leave the crew seeing how he said back in Water 7 that he will be the next one to leave the crew. Plus we already know that these upcoming arcs may have parallels to the arcs pre-TS, so I guess it's possible but I don't really see it happening.

He means for them to fight against each other like they pretend to do a lot

No they shouldn't. If Zoro and Sanji ever fought seriously, to the point that one would need to leave the crew, they would need to apologize and I couldn't see them doing that.

If he leaves shanks will recruit him. It's only right. Thats the only crew that fits him. For me zoro is a better captain than luffy btw.

For some reason I could never see them, legit, fight. They obviously care for each other as friends, they just cover it up. They always argue, but I don't think anything could make them so mad, in which they would fight each other and risk the loyalty of the crew.

If both fought Zoro would be the obvious victor...however having said that I dont want them to fight like that feud between Ussop and Luffy on water 7.

zoro is never leaving the straw hat crew he's way too loyal to luffy. i do agree that zoro would be a better captain than luffy.

OT: no i don't think they will ever fight each other seriously, they have like a brotherly love hate thing going on and they just play fight

Zoro would litteraly be the worst captain of all the strawhats, he not only is as stupid as Luffy, he also is lazy and drunk all the time. Zoro only is charismatic about 2 times every arc and then he just vanishes. Best choices for captain would be:

Nami/Sanji/Franky as best replacements
Robin/Brook/Usopp all intelligent or experienced but lack leadership or courage
Chopper/Zoro/Luffy lack multiple things to guide a crew

Jimbei would be the ideal replacement captain.

Zoro would be a way better captain than Sanji.......sanji would get the crew killed because of women....so Zoro is the better choice plus he is second in command......look at the water 7 Arc he put the whole crew in their place.

I just don't see it, a serious fight between them, nor between any of the other strawhats, they were training their azess of fort 2 years so they could protect eachother, and even though they been apart a long time, to me their bond right now seems stronger than ever, their is alot of respect, they are past that stage tbh, they are more like a family now

Shut up turd,

Even when it has been portrayed in the manga you try to degrade this with stupid reasons and speculation. Just because I said it you have to call out Sanji on his leadership qualities and not one of the other 10 people in that post. Your personal vendetta is getting a bit sad.

Sanji is dong an excellent job at the moment when he asked Luffy's permission to take over Sunny and attack Big Mom. Instead of getting the women killed he is protecting them,

Just like in water 7 when Sanji got on the sea train on his own, he opned the gates of justice on his own and lured crocodile on his own. He is the only one in the M3 who uses his brain and has as much authority as Zoro. Before Zoro gave Luffy that speech in W7 (which is ancient history by now) It was Sanji who kicked Luffy through a table to prevent him from saying something stupid about his nakama.

Sanji might not be stronger than Zoro, but he is a 100 times a better leader.

Lol...you have the Audacity to call me turd when you eat out Sanji's assLol...and Sanji is a little smarter than Zoro I 'll give you that but Sanji still wouldnt make a better captain than Zoro.......Zoro is the most loyal in the crew Sanji was considering to leave the crew because of violet(not sure if he was joking but yh) this shows Sanjis will is weak the crew needs a captain with an iron will like Zoro...When Sanji does something as epic as this for the crew get back to me:
