Why is Zoro still struggling with Lucci?

Y'all do remember Lucci clashed with a suppressed GEAR 5 Luffy.

Luffy>Zoro

King runs on stamina unlike the Seraphim.

And we haven't seen enough of the Seraphim to scale them anywhere anyways.

Lucci is same tier as King but higher up imo

Cause Zoro isn’t Emperor level

Becuase Rob Lucci is very strong... (Zoro isn’t as strong as many like to think aswell)

Rob Lucci can can take multiple hits, dodge attacks, react to, and match a punch from G5 Luffy which is Luffy's peak of power.

Awakened Rob Lucci is incredibly powerful... which is why Rob Lucci can pose such a large problem for Zoro despite Zoro having already used KoH mode on him and still being unable to finish the fight having to turn it off to stay in the fight.

Also the Seraphim while they do share Alber's lineage factor they are not him as they have a ton of other pieces that make them as strong as they are. Not to mention from what we saw the Seraphim never turned off their Flames and instead they had to be restrained in seastone bubbles to stop them as they couldn't conventionally defeat them.

So yes Rob Lucci can be stronger than King but that doesn't mean he (or anyone) can conventionally defeat a Flames On Lunarian while also still being a massive problem to Zoro.

Because Zoro isn't as strong as some people like to think

Lucci is just that guy

what is he supposed to do against Lucci? One shot him?

Lucci is a high YC1, not that far from a low admiral level.

Zoro vs Lucci has to be mid/high diff fight for Zoro

Lucci got stronger🤷🏽‍♂️

This is what some Zoro fans get for thinking he was close to Luffy due to cutting Kaido. Hell Kaido gave Zoro a clean shot to go all out and it only resulted in another scar lol.

He got legit stronger tbh

Jozu vs Lucci

I've been saying that Lucci will get way stronger when he comes back. He has been continuously improving before and after time skip.

Lucci is stronger than People give him credit.

I'd say He is in the league With names like King, Katakure and Marco.

skill issue

Rob Lucci seemed to have garnered some random hate and people started lowballing him. Not sure why anyone expected him to be weak.

There are people who expected Zoro to one-shot Lucci?

It's the Zoro fan boy cope train that's all. The recent Sanji feat, along with Zoro struggling puts them right around the same level and showcases they have different strengths.

Also Luffy is infact just that strong and the gap is infact just that big. Zoro and Sanji are closer in power (read: they are on the same tier their stat spread is just different as I pointed out in another thread) than they are close to Luffy. Sad reality is that if they fought Luffy,Luffy could possibly two shot them in G5.

So it's just a lack of respect for Lucci. He ain't even my top ten favorite character in the story but he does got one of my favorite attacks :Hand Gun simple and brutal

Powerscalers

People were just hoping Zoro deals with Lucci so they can claim some relativity to Luffy

Zoro is weaker than Law and possibly even Kidd

'Cause he's fodder.

Cuz he’s strong

In truth, Zoro just got lost again and hopes clashing with Lucci would put him on the right track.

Man, Luffy need a new wing

It's as simple as people seeing Luffy clap Lucci and thinking Zoro is close to his power so he will follow suit

1. people severely overrated Zoro as always
2. people underrated lucci after he got schlonged by a yonko

my opinion = fax

ur opinion = creditless

Terrible powerscaling that’s all it is wth has lucci been doing to have become so powerful?

Lol do people think Zoro is Yonko or Admiral level? He isn’t. Him and Lucci are just relative.

Do you even read One Piece😭

@nassergrant19: I know the feats

@primella: I haven't even read the new chapter and like ....lol hahaha stop y'all..like what you mean wth hes been doing ?

Bruh he's an awakened zoans. They have busted recovery/regeneration rates. He has actual martial arts in a story where most people are brawlers. He has decent Haki. He is a complete package with no real easily exploitable weaknesses. Rob Gucci is not a a gimmick fighter.

Keep in mind without ENMA vs king Zoro would have lost. If King wasn't stupid and just kept flame on mode Zoro would have lost. So this isn't surprising that Zoro is struggling and RL is stalling him fairly comfortably.

If you did you wouldn’t call him fodder lol

@marsz1pan: so him awakening his devil fruit and doing some training is enough for him to be on zoro level whos been constantly pushing his limits against enemies above his weight class?

@primella:

Yes.

While the story does revolve around the strawhats it's not like other characters are just not doing anything.

Also keep in mind that if Zoro had fought Rob Lucci back in enies lobby he would have been destroyed. So if we are talking scaling wise it would be weirder that's a opponent that Luffy struggled with (read: almost died) would now suddenly be "just" fodder to Zoro.

Also I do see where your coming from btw and I understand but as I said in a previous post the gap between Zoro and Luffy is a order of magnitude. However a CP0 agent should be able to at least stall Zoro to be worth his salt. To double down on this further remember the agent that caused Luffy to die to Kaido by doing ironbody? We have enough evidence to now say Lucci is stronger than him. So it's not like it's just a magical stretch that Lucci can keep up with Zoro it would be more weird if he couldn't.

Also keep in mind that from now on fights won't be a walk in the park anymore. People at the top or near the top are that strong. The strawhats will struggle. So part of it is plot yes but it doesn't take away from Rob Lucci or Zoro it's just displaying the levels they are at and creating that seperation between first commander/admiral/in-between teirs and the Yonko level that G5 Luffy is at.

He's stalling.
