Fanclub Temple of The Grandmaster Zoro

[Lor D. Coast]

This might be a reach, but I noticed something interesting about Zoro and Rayleigh. Zoro has used five main swords: Wado Ichimonji, Sandai Kitetsu, Yubashiri, Shusui, and Enma. If you pay close attention, Rayleigh has also been shown wielding five different blades.

Could this mean that Zoro will keep Sandai rather than replace it with a sixth main sword?

Spoiler: Rayleigh's 5 Swords

Rayleigh stealing the blades of his victims

Btw ryuma/loki parallel this chapter again
The zoro CoC was also ryuma reference at him not knowing who was the King
And loki damage the only knights and didn't know what he used

Oda using his winning formula to make popular characters.

Chapter also confirms what we said immediately, but "they" denied as usual
Nusjuro had to defend against Zoro, unlike the others, because he sensed the Adv CoC from Zoro's attack and that it would kill him despite regeneration

FACTS

https://www.sportskeeda.com/anime/latest-one-piece-chapter-explains-nusjuro-block-zoro-egghead

He is right notice how Nusjuro senses BEFORE

Others were mere hindrances, Zoro was a threat once again due to his Haki (my Hakiman...)
That when he is not even aware, imagine when he will be...

There might be something behind the argument that Baron had to defend because he sensed aCoC oozing out of Zoro but I don't think Rashomon was coated in it, there is nothing to support it.

I don't know how the article precisely sees that but the general point that Nusjuro (and all Gorosei) ignored any one but felt the need to defend against Zoro is very solid, I mean that's what we saw, literally

In my opinion Zoro against Nusjuro (and against Lucci) just used the CoC leaking that for example you can see from Doflamingo and Luffy's clash in Dressrosa, or Katakuri and Luffy, or even Zoro himself with the Asura against Kaido

So just CoC leaking, not the Adv CoC that Zoro used against King (with the Bird Dance with Sandai Kitetsu) let alone the Adv CoC merged with Adv CoA as in the King of Hell Style/King of Hell Serpent attacks

Don't know if I am explaining well but the issue is that Zoro has different levels for his Haki

The need to defend is because he felt aCoC oozing out of Zoro.
However, that doesn't mean Zoro is coating his attacks into aCoC.
We can literally see Luffy talking about Zoro releasing it all the time while not even fighting.

Yeah, we might have a disconnect in arguments due to COC leaks and aCoC leaks not being differentiated by me.
CoC is for me just the fodder control burst while leaks are associated with aCoC, the coating.

But if you look back, that's not correct as Chinjao and Dressrosa Luffy, or Doflamingo and Dressrosa Luffy, were emitting CoC with their physical blows/clashes... yet we know for sure that they weren't using Adv CoC

We also see the evident difference in Zoro's swords being coated in Haki lightning (vs King) and just unleashing Haki lightning after hitting the target (vs Lucci and vs Nusjuro)

What's interesting however is that when Zoro negged Lucci, Haki lightning remained oozing from Lucci's body, as if Zoro put it into him... of course he did that instinctively/unconsciously but he still did that
If i'm not wrong, we don't see characters normally having their Haki leaking from the opponents they struck

This is a prequel of sky split.
I don't know how I would even classify that.
I don't bother with either of those because they server only one purpose - hype.

Those are impact lightning or just strong haki, not necessarily CoC.
Impact lightning always leaks out of the target, even Franky has shown that.

I can and cannot believe that Zoro didn’t know he had conquer’s haki. I am glad Oda finally confirmed it, and I think the reveal is a dig to the OP fans who kept saying Zoro didn’t have it.

I also liked Zoro’s reaction to Gaban scolding him. Most of the time it’s Zoro scolding the crew for their shenanigans. It was a nice character moment for Zoro, and I hope to see more of them. Mainly, I am excited for some Zoro feats!

More to come, Luffy is going full retard with the Shanks glaze.

This chapter is another instance of someone saying/implying Zoro is holding the crew back.

What does Oda have in mind for the conclusion of this character arc?

Next arc Oda will tell us that Zoro forgot that he close his eye:saden::saden:

Nothing happened V.2

Oda is master of nothing happening and this is just another example.

Step 1 - We all treated Zoro as someone aware of aCoC.
Step 2 - Oda reveals Zoro isn't aware of aCoC.
Step 3 - Oda makes Zoro aware of aCoC.
Step 4 - Back to square one, we treat Zoro as someone who is aware of aCoC again. And all of that went full circle in just a couple of panels.

This chapter is another instance of someone saying/implying Zoro is holding the crew back.

What does Oda have in mind for the conclusion of this character arc?

Trouble in paradise, again?
