If Zoro durablity arguably surpasses Luffy, why did he drop from a single scythe wound to the shoulder from Killer? That kind of injury wasn't enough to put Sanji the supposedly thrid strongest down. Don't tell you believe the blade was poisoned? Or that Zoro was weakned from a tummy ache like some other people do?

Luffy and Zoro can do whatever they want but this chapter highlights why they shouldn't do whatever they want. Imagine if they were the only ones at Onigashima, no crew, army or Kid to back them up and they pulled this stunt, what do you think what happen then? Luffy and Zoro would get anillated. The early chapters of East Bue show why they would've died at sea and this chapter reaffirms it.
