There are not many arcs where Zoro has gotten more shine than Luffy except Thriller Bark I think. I am leaning more towards the possibility that this might be the final/second last bounty increase that the SHPs will get. With the Gorosei being shown so much worried about Luffy getting the awakening and the result that Luffy will definitely beat Kaido at the end of Wano I expect Luffy's bounty to be more than Kaido's now. With that said it follows that Zoro will also get his bounty which will put his near or even over the bounty of Beckmann (since Luffy will already have surpassed Shanks bounty). But to deserve this bounty Zoro must do something more than just defeat King in this arc.
I think that the final war will be fought after the SHPs find the One Piece at which point they will have get their final bounties. The question is will Zoro fight Mihawk before this, during the final war or after it. Personally I think that Shanks and Mihawk will be present before the SHPs reach Raftel or at Raftel and to get the One Piece they will have to show their worthiness by beating them. I say this because Mihawk said becoming Pirate King is even more difficult than surpassing him so essentially from a story perspective Zoro must become the Strongest Swordsman before or at most at the same time as Luffy becomes the Pirate King. So when the final war starts it will be the WG vs the SHPs, the Pirate King and the WSS. There is one problem though, if we go by this approach then that means that Zoro's opponent from the WG (most likely the samurai Gorosei) will be stronger than Mihawk which renders the whole WSS title of Mihawk as fake.
Another way to look at this though is that Pirate King was only a title given by the WG to hide Gol D Roger's real name so Luffy finding the One Piece does not automatically make him the PK and hence Zoro's final battle against Mihawk can also be delayed until then.
There's one more individual who is reminding us, and his name is zoro.
What kind of warrior is Zoro? When Zoro returns, he will awaken his black blade, and the title of the chapter will be The Warrior of _______ .
-Black Blade
Particularly given the fact that Oda kept zoro hidden from us while other major characters reacted to Luffy. Oda is saving Zoro for something major, and I'm certain it'll be the Black Blade Awakening.
You sort of stole the thread I was gonna make but I'll just add it here.
It's basically shows why zoro is definitely getting up with a power up.
Let's start with the most important panel
Death is what completes a person
And weve literally seen this happen
Not only someone "die" but get a power up and come back stronger.
Let's jump straight to the obvious example
LUFFY
Here luffy becomes complete after death.
First he dies
Death completes a person
Then he comes back stronger and awakens as the Warrior of liberation
As nika
Now funnily enough the exact same thing happened (albeit on a smaller scale)
To sanji
Remember Death completes a person
SANJI
Sanji should have been dead here to the brachio snake
Queen even expects him to be so when he drops him
But no once again
He awakens instead this time
It's the Warrior of Science
And he now has an exoskeleton awakened
And finally we have zoro
Finally we have zoro faced with a reaper a literal manifestation of death after taking x2 of what he took since the roof.
With both chopper and franky questioning if he is going to or is dead.
A coincidence that he is also going through death ?
Of course not
As kaido said death completes a person.
Zoro is also getting up stronger than before
Probably with his own
Warrior of Chapter like the other 2 have had.
Whether it be Warrior of death/hell/wano whatever that remains to be seen
But he will get stronger
A black enma is probably on its way.
Zoro is by no means done.
On a side note as far as the actual power up he's getting is
The best place to look is this colour page
Where so far Robins demon form
Luffys nika hair
Sanji is apparently a cyborg
So maybe zoro has something to do with the zelda/link chap.

Fully agree with you here. It’s impossible for Zoro to not get his own Warrior chapter and he obviously has a running plot thread. I imagine in 2 chapters will cut back to it.

and then there was Thriller Bark where Zoro got his moment to shine and save the captains ass!
on WCI we had Sanji saving Luffy after the fight and this time it might be again Zoro's turn! let's not give up our hopes kekw
If we are following patterns of previous arcs, Zoro is always up when the villain of the arc is defeated. He's definitely getting up to wrap up his plot points but people will act like the did not see this coming.

Kinda honest?
After all the build up with leading him for a return, it would be weird if he don´t return at this point.
What I know, if he return, he will receive a huge powerup too if he face Kaido again.
