First off just in case people havent seen it:
Luffy's Attributes
Zoro's Attributes
Now first off… Please stop using Enel, Luffy had a HUGE advantage over him compared to Zoro. If you were unharmed by someones MAIN method of fighting is that not considered an advantage?
Also I've said this many times before... Other then Crocodile, there has only been a TWO other main enemies. Enel and Lucci, everyone else, Foxy, Aoi Koji, and small people like Blueno, Bellamy don't count. (like I said before Enel dosent even really count)
So saying Luffy always gets the STRONGER people is kind of weird because that has only happened TWICE after Crocodile. NOT COUNTING EAST BLUE cause there is no reason too.
Also the DATA book (notice how its called DATA, means we're not pulling random stuff out of our ass) is after Crocodile. So if Oda still considered Luffy and Zoro having the same POWER after Luffy fighting a stronger opponent is irrelevent.
Now we all know they are growing stronger. For example Luffy had trouble with Sattori, probaly the weakest priest except for Gedatsou. Zoro on the other hand took out Ohm the strongest priest.
Also don't always say captain is the strongest. Zoro is more of a lone wolf. Always has been, probaly always will be. Luffy is his captain because he let him be not because POWER dictates otherwise. Letting someone be his captain does not jeopardize him dream.
There was a post saying if Luffy and Zoro did fight again and Luffy won we would still be crapping out words like Zoro is equal.
Funny it hasnt happened but you know what has? LUFFY AND ZORO TYING each other in a fight. Yet we're the ones getting called naive...
I know in real life there would always be a victor. BUT THIS IS MANGA.
Would you say Broggy and Dory are equal? I would so why can't Luffy and Zoro be equal?
Sidenote:
