Nice article! And who doesn't love Zoro, right? However, concerning the claim from the first paragraph, "he isn't anywhere close to the level of the Admirals or the Yonko at the moment."...chances are that fans disagree.

Zoro held off a combined attack from Kaido and Big Mom (two Yonko), rose to first commander level when he defeated King (which puts him closer to handling Admirals), showed the distance between him and Rob Lucci just as Jimbei arrived, then held off a major slash attack from one of the Gorosei.

These are signs that he's already been in the Admiral/Yonko sphere. It's better to say he isn't all there yet than to say he's nowhere close to Admiral and Yonko level. On top of that, he just acquired Conqueror's haki by the time he awakened and defeated King in Wano. Just because Scopper Gaban pointed out that he's not in control of his Conqueror's haki doesn't mean he lacks it.

The inability to control a power or skill doesn't indicate a lack of the power or skill itself. It indicates a lack of understanding as to how to control that power or skill.

I would even say Sanji as well is also apart of this Admiral sphere, but not the Yonko sphere though. I think this was teased when Kizaru's laser was "miraculously" deflected by Sanji, and to the former's surprise.

It shouldn't be forgotten that the wings of the future pirate king showed significant and astronomical growth to officially solidify the Straw Hat pirates as a Yonko crew, of course with Luffy defeating Kaido in the end.

Something tells me we'll never get a rematch between Fujitora and Zoro though. I await the man of gravity and gambling to wield his sword once more.

One Piece is real!
