The Elbaf arc of One Piece has faced the biggest challenges in the storyline to date, particularly with the emergence of the formidable Imu and the Celestial Dragons. Although the Celestial Dragons are incredibly powerful, they are not unbeatable foes. However, once Imu enters the fray, the dynamics of the situation change.
Designated as the “Pirate King’s Wings,” Zoro and Sanji are two prominent contenders who possess remarkable strength, although they have not yet reached their peak potential. Therefore, it is certain that Oda will present them with further battles ahead, alongside significant rewards for their efforts.
Zoro and Sanji Will Face Dorry and Brogy
At this point, it is clear that Zoro and Sanji will engage in combat with Dorry and Brogy later in the Elbaf arc of One Piece. As noted in the previous chapter, Dorry and Brogy have been transformed into puppets by Imu. Utilizing dark magic, Imu has the ability to turn them into formidable enemies without facing many difficulties. This suggests that Imu can manipulate others as long as they do not need a physical presence in this land.

Secondly, the transformation of Dorry and Brogy into puppets carries significant implications. Despite having been the strongest warriors in Elbaf and even having battled the infamous Davy Back Fight, their roles will now be more focused on combat under Imu’s control. Imu has commanded Dorry and Brogy to eliminate Jarul and replace him as the King of Elbaf. This not only grants them immense power but could also lead to Elbaf being sold to the World Government. Ultimately, it remains under Imu’s total control, and a capable leader is essential. Luffy is undoubtedly not a choice in this matter, as he will confront Imu. Loki may also have the potential to follow Luffy into battle against Imu.

Among the strongest warriors, Zoro and Sanji are the most suitable contenders to face Dorry and Brogy. This is not only due to their strength but also because of the mutual respect they hold for each other. Dorry and Brogy are two opponents who have fought for over 102 years to determine supremacy, and their battle is unlikely to be resolved easily. Meanwhile, Sanji and Zoro are also rivals. Engaging in combat and defeating each other will be a crucial developmental step for Zoro and Sanji.
The Minimum Reward for Zoro and Sanji Should Be at Least 2 Million Berries

Regarding the rewards for Zoro and Sanji, it is clear that they will receive significantly higher amounts if they manage to defeat their opponents. It is important to note that Dorry and Brogy previously had a bounty of 1.8 million Belly per person. On top of that, they have become even stronger, more resilient, and may have gained new abilities. It is evident that Dorry and Brogy are currently at a completely different level.
Thus, by defeating Dorry and Brogy, Zoro and Sanji’s rewards may logically surpass 2 million Belly. At minimum, both should receive a bounty of at least 2 million each, which will undoubtedly reflect the growing reputation of the duo in the world of One Piece.
Do you think Zoro and Sanji can surpass the bounty threshold of 2 million Belly after the Elbaf arc?
