Only 1% of people are capable of seeing the truth? Sounds about right.
Hahaha, more like 1% are in denial that Zoro is depending on a power up from an outside source, because they spent a lot of time criticising Sanji's raid suit and that Sanji will depend on an outside powerup LOL.
I mean I was already one saying swords grades are power up, otherwise there would be no grades to begin with if it wasn't a power up, and it was even proven more in Zoro's first fight with Shusui against Oars when he made a slash and Shusui's slash absorbed the other two swords slashes and magnified it many folds. Then Zoro proceeded that even if a dinosaur stepped on this blade, it would not bend. If that doesn't tell you having Shusui or Enma is far from having a fodder sword, then I don't know what it is
It's the same thing some Shanks fans wanted to sell by saying Shanks has a marine like normal fodder sword and it's only haki. Yet, Oda confirmed it's called Griffon and it's a famous one! Who knows, it could turn out to be from 12 Saijo O-wazomono even.
Look, I see no problem in someone using an upgrade of something his skills relies on. Zoro is a swordsman, I see no problem in him using even all 3 to be Saijo O-wazomono and all of them give him tremendous boost in power. But I hate it when people are in denial or try to twist the fact that these swords are power ups by saying they are not giving Zoro more strength, and it's all just his haki! It doesn't make sense and Oda himself and the story itself proved otherwise. It's clear as day that both Zoro and Sanji are using external power boost. And I have no problem at all with it, they have no DFs, so to keep up with the monsters of New World, oda has to provide them with alternatives and not just haki alone. With Sanji, it turned out to be science, and with Zoro, it is the swords upgrades. And sadly, only Sanji got bashed because he relied on Raid Suit. It shows double standard, which is what I hate
This double standard was not the first, hell Sanji-Luffy had the same kind of double standard from the fans. Do you all remember when Sanji had the cuffs on his own hands in WCI???
And people were like "Oh, if Sanji can use armament haki, he wouldn't get affected by these cuffs, then he's weak...etc" from the trash conclusions. So, how about Luffy's cuffs in this arc in Udon on his neck???? Why was he thinking that he was about to die when it was about to explode and it required the extremely advanced armament haki which Luffy was training on this whole arc to release himself from the cuffs.
Point is, I have never had a problem with the events of the story, it's just the double standard from some fans that I hate
