Ancient Zoan
It was also implied that the Ancient Zoan users are physically stronger than normal Zoans;[9] the two known users have certainly shown size and destructive powers far more powerful than an average Zoan-class user"It was also implied that the Ancient Zoan users are physically stronger than normal Zoans;[9] the two known users have certainly shown size and destructive powers far more powerful than an average Zoan-class user"

I am uneasy with the above statement.

How exactly was it implied that Ancient Zoans are superior. How have the 2 known users shown SIze and destructive power "far more powerful" than average Zoan class usders. To explain more on the second one, we must not consider the power dispalyed by the Zoan user as the fruit alone. The feats that Drake and Jack pulled off, with their Zoan fruit, are also dependent on the ZOan user's physical strength. Rob Lucci explained that Zoans increase the physical stats of their owners and are that Zoan users are the best in close combat. If Zoro for example ate the Gorilla devil furit, and sliced a mountain, you can't use it as an indicataion that The Gorilla devil fruit is "far more powerful" than other average Zoan Devil fruits. The user of that fruit was already cpable of cutting mountains with or without his DF.

A clamity like Jack destroying severl buildings, something he should be able to do caasually with his Zoan Devil fruit, doesn't mean that his Zoan devil fruit is more powerful at all than other Devil fruits.

We do not know enough about X-Drake's abilities without his Devil fruit, to judge how powerful his Devil fruit made him. If X-Drake, for example had eaten a Crocodile Zoan, there is no guarantee he couldn't have pulled it off.

Ancient Zoans are certainly rarer, but I feel it is premature to say they are more powerful. Emp3r0r.Lance (talk) 21:17, June 12, 2016 (UTC)

Carnivorous and Ancient Zoan Strength
The tidbits on Carnivorous and Ancient Zoans being stronger/better adapted for combat than regular Zoans should be removed, as since we have no direct way of confirming it it is very speculatory. Many herbivorous animals in the real world are very powerful such as bison and rhinos, to name a few. Not to mention all the Impel Down guards are herbivorous Zoans.

The reference says Chopper said it. SeaTerror (talk) 23:40, June 12, 2016 (UTC)

Chopper only says they become more aggresive. The rest is speculation. I'm not even sure we should consider carnivorous a "sub-class", though. It seemed more like just "Zoans that are carnivorous" than a separate type. 20:39, July 24, 2016 (UTC)
