alright i read your essay, and i do find the logic of chopper's control over his monster point odd, but first i would just like to put forward my own hypothesis: perhaps the zoan fruits do not have souls themselves, but merely strenghten the animalistic urges that all humans have in them already, but have been pushed to the depths of their minds from years of evolution from monkeys, and monster point is when their own animalistic urges take over, and maybe that is why some of the guards were able to retain some control when they entered monster point due to the fact that they do not have strong animalistic urges but have strong, calm minds. and the reason why the zoan fruits that have taken over unanimated objects are so obidient because they dont really have any instincts cause they didnt have animal instincts in the first place, now about Smiley's disobidience, i think he didnt listen to Caesar because his fruit is an Axolotl model, and Axololtl's are sea creatures that dont have strong hearing, and are maybe even deaf, so i dont think he even heard ceasar's orders. now getting back to Chopper...actually maybe ill do that later
