He is. Doffy said Law was not only taught in swordsmanship by Diamante, but also by Lao G in martial Arts and in weaponry by Gladius.
And yet in the present day all he uses is a sword. Sanji was also trained in swordsmanship as a boy. That’s completely irrelevant in the present day, because all he uses are kicks. Law may have been trained in other things as a child, but in the present day all he uses is a sword.
Like literally, his abilities have zero to do with swordsmanship.
Basic slicing attack, only shown to be done with a sword.
Radio Knife, shown to be done with a sword
Injection Shot, shown to be done with a sword
Sterbern, shown to be done with a sword
Scan, needs to be done with a sword
Any time he’s gotten into a fight with a half decent opponent, he’s needed to use his sword to fight them hand to hand.
What’s he going to doing here without a sword
or here
or here
or here?
Of course he uses a sword, because a sword is a better weapon of choice than a knife,
Yeah, and that’s what matters. Oda could have made Law fight with a scalpel if he wanted. It would have fit his Surgeon motif. Instead he makes him one of the only characters in the series to carry a cursed sword, one of the only characters to actually talk about the spirit of swordsmanship and hasn’t shown any capability of fighting without one. We can’t just pretend that Law is perfectly capable of fighting at the exact same level without a sword, without ever showing it. That’s not how this works. What is actually shown on page is what matters, not irrelevant speculation like “yeah, but he
could do it with a knife.”
Do you realize that Law could just teleport Zoro's swords out of his hands and throw them into the sea?
Yeah, sure he could. I’m sure he’ll just throw BM and Kaido‘s weapons into the sea as well. Hell, he might as well just throw them both in right after, finish the arc there and then.
There is absolutely no reason to think that Law could disarm Zoro in that manner. Who has he ever done that against to make us think that’s possible? He couldn’t do it against Hawkins in his two fights with him.
