In the wake of a recently finished Zoro and Drake CRT, I found some more stuff which concerns Base Wano Zoro, Base X Drake, and Onimaru.
1. Onimaru drew blood from Kawamatsu, who is Scabbard lvl 6-A and tanked hits from Kaido.
2. In connection to this, Zoro matched Onimaru.
3. While Killer was not at peak AP against Zoro due to not having his Sonic Scythes (going by his statement), his durability shouldn't be much lower than its usual 6-a level, so Zoro defeating Killer with a Buso attack should still be a 6-A feat.
4. As was mentioned in the previous thread linked above, X Drake was able to briefly defend against an attack from Yamato albeit he was knocked back from the hit. As with Zoro, blocking an attack in a way like that should be an AP feat for Base Drake that should let his Base downscale to Baseline 6-A since he was still knocked back by the hit, which is supported by him being shown fighting Apoo in base with injuries that his Zoan form did not have, implying that for at least some of his off-screen bout with Apoo he was in Base.
4.5. Speaking of Drake, I think his Zoan form should scale to 1 petaton durability due to both fighting Apoo off screen while he was using his 1 petaton sound attacks (and having injuries in Base that probably came from Apoo's sound attacks, as he is shown dodging some of them in base), and holding his own against the CP0 agent who not only tanked a Boom from Apoo (which scales to 1 petaton due to knocking out Post Udon Luffy who in base has 1 petaton durability) and is comparable to his other top masked agents, who weren't too damaged after being attacked point blank by Kazenbo, which damaged Yamato.
His Zoan AP still only scales above his 760 teraton base AP due to him still losing against the CP0 leader and mainly damaging him with piercing damage, so it's better for him to just downscale (or rather, just upscale above his downscaled base).
This would mainly affect Buso Zoro, the latter of whom already one-shot Killer with Buso and Killer has 1 petaton durability. Being badly injured by blocking the Ocean Sovereignty with Buso Haki is not an anti-feat since both Kaido and Big Mom were in forms (Hybrid and 3-Homies) that scaled far above their base keys AND it was a combined attack.
Queen won't scale since it was only Base Drake who he damaged. Apoo also won't scale since he only blocked Zoro's weaker Nitoryu attacks with Buso and was easily defeated by a Goken attack.
As for the whole Zoro vs Hawkins thing:
1. It's only Base Hawkins that the Base Tobiroppo scale above (since it was only Base Hawkins that matched Dressrosa Arc Law), not the Straw Man card.
2. Zoro was busy trying to defend Tama.
3. Zoro still one-shot the Straw Man with Tower Climb and would've killed Hawkins were it not for him transferring the pain to someone else.
Because of these Zoro revision proposals, I think that Zoro's second key should be changed from "post-Enma training" to just "Wano arc" Zoro, and his first key should just be for Fishman Island and Dressrosa.
Yes he trained himself to improve his usage of Enma right before the Onigashima Raid, but this training was just to improve his control over Enma, and nothing says that this training improved the rest of his stats.
Killer still stays at 760 teratons despite injuring Zoro, since while he did draw blood Zoro was somewhat distracted by Onimaru AND was matching Killer in just his base and one-shot him with Buso.
Besides, his Base being Scabbard level 6-A would better explain how his Onigiri was able to make Kaido feel pain with a cut without any Buso whatsoever.
Edit:
5. Post Mink Zoro should have Asura mentioned in his post mink key as being "Far stronger than his previous Asura", since not only is Zoro himself stronger but he also isn't severely injured like he was when he used Asura against Kaido. Emin and I agreed that it should be put alongside Post Mink Medicine Zoro's Haoshoku Infusion and Unleashing Enma in the post-Mink Key
6. Apoo and Drake should also scale to Zoro's FTL speed, plus Drake should scale to reacting to Base Yamato.
7. I think that Zoro's "strongest moves" should thus be added to his base Wano key since he didn't use Buso Haki in that joint attack with Killer against Kaido. His Goken attack against Apoo can be added to his Buso Haki justification since IIRC Goken is still Buso Haki.
1. Onimaru drew blood from Kawamatsu, who is Scabbard lvl 6-A and tanked hits from Kaido.
