one piece; is zoro really stronger than luffy

there are many feats in which the three strawhats have done that will prove their strength but recently we've begin to wonder, is zoro stronger than luffy or is he in sanji's level???

      First let me clear one thing, zoro is not stronger than luffy, It I common sense that the captain of a ship should be the strongest, that is why members of his crew can rely on him. Besides, zoro has not done any feat greater than what luffy has accomplished, zoro's greatest feats is cutting down pica who was a lot bigger than a city but luffy's feat of defeating katakuri (someone who could even see some few seconds Into the future) has far outclassed that. And as we know bounties does not play that much of a role in determining the strengths of characters but it does indicate the threat they pose to the marine and the world government, and luffy's bounty is far greater than zoro's.

   Now that we have affirmed that zoro currently in no way stronger than luffy, let us determined how close or far😉 he is away from Sanji in terms of strength.

       While luffy always fights against the strongest, zoro will end up taking on the 2nd strongest and Sanji the third. This goes a long way in determining the range of their strength. Well....Sanji and zoro have always behaved as equals since the very beginning, they seem to get in a lot of arguments, and even when they complemented each other when facing different opponents. But in the recent episodes, Zoro seems to surpassed Sanji, it is evident where Zoro sliced of Sanji cigerate along with the edge of a him.

Sanji is definitely strong by zoro has surpassed him, I would say zoro is closer in strength to luffy, but not at his level yet. Luffy is literally almost at emperor level while zoro is still at admiral.
