Powers & Abilities When Mihawk and Zoro finally clash...

we would first need to discuss if Mihawk is actually a real swordsman and eligible for the title.
This is how I imagine the battle will go.
On Laughtale island, Mihawk patiently waits on what looks like a throne and Zoro appears.
Before the fight, Zoro has quick flashbacks from his perspective of Luffy rescuing him, his first loss against Mihawk, his friendship with the crew, some moments with Tashigi, and closing with his promise to Kuina.
Beforehand, we are also told that Mihawk inherited that title by defeating Rayleigh with barely any wound making the challenge of defeating the WSS the greatest it has ever been.
Their clash begins and its pretty much as intense as a Yonku clash. The battle is absolutely destructive in nature and literally shaking the nature and chaotic environment of Laughtale island itself.
Zoro armed with Nidai Kitetsu, Wado Ichimonji, and a fully blacked Enma are able to match the Intensity of Yoru.
However, Mihawk's experience and observation Haki are able to see Marimo's every moves.
Zoro's youth and endurance are pretty much what keeps him in this battle. Despite growing exponentially stronger, Mihawk is still the superior swordsman. Both have COC but Mihawk's mastery of Ryou is unmatched maybe by Shanks himself.
Mihawk is a perfectly oiled machine. He is not only powerful but he is extremely precise and waste no movement which was how Kuina was able to defeat him 2001 times.
Zoro is still able to injure Mihawk which is a miracle feat in itself but he is running out of breath and his armament Haki covering his body can no longer take that much damage.
Zoro throws everything in one last technique that is a combination Sanzen Sekai and Ashura with his most powerful Conqueror, and armament Ryou Haki. That new move seemingly lands but Mihawk was able to read it just in time so that it was not a fatal wound.
Mihawk lands his most powerful attack and a devastating blow on Zoro who is barely standing. Mihawk is amazed by his determination.
By sheer will, Zoro stands up again and again and takes literally the biggest beating of his life since Kuina.
Seemingly defeated Zoro remembers what his childhood friend said " Carrying two real swords is heavy and your brute strength is not enough". Koshiro told Zoro ever since he came here, Kuina has trained even more because she did not want to be defeated by him. Little by little, she was able to break the barriers swordwomen faced. Zoro has an epiphany.... Kuina's dream was never an illusion . He recalls what Mihawk told him that a sword without grace and skill is useless. This is how she was able to defeat him all this time against physically stronger adults. If she can do it I can do it !
Zoro remembers what Tashigi told him "that sword Wado Ichimonji she is really happy with you ! she tells you to keep going no matter what and she will always be with you !" Zoro is now in complete harmony with Wado Ichimonji and turns permanently black ( he doesn't have the strength or the need to carry the other two katanas}.
He goes back into battle. Somehow, Wado Ichimonji also helps him see glimpses of the future and predict the WSS' moves.
Zoro and Mihawk are now completely even.
He is able to deal precise hits and is transcending Mihawk in every categories.
Both fighters are at their limits, the next attack will be their last. They throw everything into one last move.
Somehow someway, Zoro emerges victorious with a move reminiscent of Shi Shi Sonson and Tashigi's Kiri Shigure.
Mihawk defeated on the ground smiling simply mutters " Splendid" .
Zoro falls on the ground and the skies clearing as if the heavens were looking at him. Zoro in tears brands his sword to the sky and screams with what strength he has left " Kuina ! I did it ! I have fulfilled our promise ! I have become the greatest swordsman ! You heard it too Luffy ! Now defeat Blackbeard and become the Pirate King !
Narrator says " Thus was the battle of the greatest swordsman, a story that started with a girl and a boy that will live on forever"
