What do you think zoro’s final set of swords will be? Which will be blackened?
Personally I think enma and wado are 100% locked in as swords he’s always going to keep. Both having deep ties to his past, future, and overall character
Like many I thought zoro giving up sandai for nidai was a legit possibility but as we can see it didn’t happen. It’s not that it’s a bad sword but it it doesn’t carry as much weight as the other 2 imo
- It’s the lowest grade blade possible before it hits just a normal sword. Under supreme, great, and skillful grade blades
- Wado and enma both being great grade
- To be fair it being a cursed blade does make it stronger than those that aren’t just not as good quality wise
As for which blades he turns black I hope it’s only wado. It’s been with him the longest with it symbolizing his promise to kuina, luffy, and himself. Also with it not being cursed it should have something to help it stick out more from the rest. Plus black blade with a white handle is sexy
Finally on to the man everyone loves to hate both zoro fans and haters. A man thats going to force zoro to grow even stronger. Whether or not shiryu himself grows stronger before the fight achieving awakening or feeding his sword a fruit idk but he’s still going to be enough to push zoro either way
The main consensus is that he is going to force zoro to strengthen his observation haki to a potentially advanced stage. Something I still don’t necessarily disagree with but what if zoro grows stronger in a different way. That way potentially being through a rarely passed on ability given to a select few of Ryuma’s descendants. Which in zoro’s case would be asura
How it’d get stronger? Either just by being able to simlply use it longer or by being able to not fully commit. Maybe being able to use between 4-8 swords instead of all 9
As for how it could be necessary to use and the perfect counter to shiryu. Zoro is obviously going to need to use and waste lots of haki just to try and keep up with shiryu and where he’s hiding. If it really comes down to zoro exhausting his observation haki instead of upgrading it asura is the perfect response. Other than the fact he can’t see the invisible man it gives zoro essentially no blind spots. So when shiryu tries to sneak him he’s still going to risk the possibility of getting cut himself
Zoro might not need to use koh mode on shiryu cause it might not even help much cause the match up so he’s either saving that for mihawk or a potential different final opponent
