For me, just the fact that Zoro is away (including Saturn and Kizaru) from everyone already indicates that he will beat Lucci and return for the main fight.
Zoro asked himself what is it?
He will confirm it himself by joining the main even.

I dont think people realize how riduculously strong Curent Zoro is.
Most of his strenght is being supressed by Oda and for well founded reasons.
They will be shocked alot even some of his fans who lowball him will be shocked when Zoro vs Mihawk happen and Zoro release his true power and is not nerfed by Oda in any way or fashion.
From the overhyped Sky splitting to whole red lines shaking from the strenght of the clashs.
Zoro casualy countering Mihawk islands++ slash and respondibg without a named attack.
He will need at best 1 power UP to win it and gonna push Mihawk to get serious or at least high diff without it.
