The rivalry between Roronoa Zoro and Vinsmoke Sanji is considered one of the most amusing and biggest rivalries in One Piece. Although both characters are on the same crew, they despise each other and have a competition going on about who is stronger between the two. And this rivalry has divided the One Piece fans into two parts.
One supports the Swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates, while another supports the cook of the crew. As the story progressed, the rivalry became much stronger but both characters also developed a mutual respect. And now, One Piece fans are going to see this rivalry reach the next level as both Zoro and Sanji are fighting some of the strongest characters of One Piece.
The previous chapters of the Egghead Island arc of One Piece showed Zoro being engaged in a thrilling battle against CP0 agent Lucci and now the recent chapter witnessed Sanji getting into a fight against Admiral Kizaru who is trying to kill Vegapunk and Bonney. These two battles will determine the stronger character between the two.

The Rivalry Between Zoro and Sanji
One of the most intense rivalries in One Piece is without a doubt between Zoro and Sanji. Zoro and Sanji have been at odds with one another for a long time because they both think they are the stronger and better crew member. The interesting thing is that the One Piece anime has never stated which of the two is superior.
Since the beginning of One Piece, Zoro and Sanji’s constant bickering has caused several power struggles among enthusiastic fans of each character. Although fans know that both characters are inevitably fighting for a larger cause, they want their favorite character to be on an upper scale than their rival.
Both of the characters are insanely strong and worthy of the title of “The Wings of The Future King of the Pirates”. Also, their rivalry adds a bit of a comedic aspect to the story that lightens the mood. However, the rivalry is going to level up as the recent chapter has put both characters against some of the strongest individuals Luffy has fought.
Sanji and Zoro Rivalry Intensifies After One Piece Chapter 1107
In One Piece chapter 1107, Zoro and Sanji’s development is showcased as they battle against Luffy’s previous rivals, Kizaru and Lucci. For the first time since Wano, it demonstrates how far Sanji and Zoro have progressed and lets their skills steal the show. This has led to another indirect rivalry between the fans.
While Zoro is still fighting Lucci and appears to be keeping up with him easily, Sanji is shown blocking an attack from Kizaru, implying that the fight between Sanji and Kizaru is about to commence. Both Lucci and Kizaru are some of the strongest characters Luffy has faced, and as Zoro and Sanji engage in a battle with them, the fights will be some of the biggest battles One Piece has ever seen.
The next few chapters will probably focus on these fights as the other Straw Hat Pirates try to find an escape route from Egghead Island. The results of these battles will not only determine the future of the series but also the winner of the long-running rivalry between Sanji and Zoro in One Piece.
