General & Others Could Zoro have kept up with Luffy and Sanji if

[Albino 👑]

Could Zoro have kept up with Luffy and Sanji if he kept his original 3 blades?
Would it change the outcome of any of his major fights?

So no yubashiri, no sandai kitetsu, no shusui, and no enma
Just wado ichimonji and his 2 nameless blades

 

[Worst]

I think so, the world strongest swordsman should still be the world strongest swordsman no matter what sword he uses, it's not like if you give Yoru to someone they become WSS, no one can deny that a better sword it's for sure a nice upgrade but a sword is a sword and and what maters in the end is the skill / haki the user has to have to squeeze every ounce of potential out of that sword

 

[Rumble]

Zoro's too strong for ordinary swords without Haki.

He'd have to keep buying new swords until he learned CoA Imbuement.

His swords would have broken one the way

Either someone strong would have destroyed them or Zoro’s own power would shatter them if he used a very strong attack

but no matter what, he’d stay stronger than Sanji by default

 

[Marimo_420]

If he's healthy there (no luffy pain from kuma), he matches them with 3 knives.

 

[BattalGazi]

I don't think he can do much without Enma and Sandai Kitetsu.

 

[Finalbeta]

Sword quality is overrated, haki and skill matter way more.

 

[Vanlax]

Ryuma's Shusui is a weaker grade blade than Wado Ichimonji pre-black blade.

So yes, Zoro would've been able to keep up.

Zoro is not Ryuma.

Why doenst he use normal swords than besides wado?

 

[Finalbeta]

Why doenst he use normal swords than besides wado?

He uses them all when performing Asura and that's literally his strongest mode same for KoH and many other attacks.

 

[SkySanji]

Zoro without Enma instantly drops to YC3 at best

Zoro without Enma or Shusui is weaker than every Veteran

His other swords matter too, but less so, most I can see for him is being around PTS Luffy level if given just Ichimonji + generic swords

And?
I sword quality doesnt matter why he uses the magic swords?
Why is one his idolos a literal swordsmith having flashbacks about him?
Could it be that, now old on to your horses, the QUALITY of swords in the ficitonal universe with RANKING OF QUALITY has something to do with power?

This reasoning would work if Zoro was actively seeking for stronger swords but he does not.
-When he asked for Wado it was as a keepsake
-Yabushiri was gift to him
-Sandai Kitetsu was gift to him
-Shusui was gift to him
-Enma was gift to him

Zoro cares so little about sword rank that he was willing to buy any swords in loguetown.

He wanted the sword of ryuma before he said he could take it, big waffling

 

[Rivaille]

He did not want it for his grade or it supposed strength.
He want it because he lacked a third sword.

Are you gonna argue now there was it 1 sword that was lying around the entirety of thriller bark he couldn't take one from a the myriads of zombie were welding around before ryuma?

Again stop waffling this is done

Is it not how he approached the buying of his swords in loguetown ? To the point where Ippomatsu started to berate him?

For further reference on how Zoro see swords re-read Loguetown.

Now can you provide any panel where Zoro is actively seeking for sword because of its strength or rank?

Zoro chose the highest quality sword thre out the barrel because he is an exceptional swordsman

And you making some head canon that he just wanted that black blade he specifically noticed after passing myriads of zombie with swords is peak efforts of either gasliting or being dishonest again now backing off the point because how retarded it was



ALSO he only TRADED shisui after making sure of Emma's special magic qualities and power

When he chose the swords on the barrel he did not know what their rank were (which were given by Tashigi) nor their properties (which he learned in Whiskey Peak). Therefore he did not actively seek to have a powerful sword in loguetown.

You should stop projecting and actually use manga facts.

Did you have a panel where Zoro is saying that he wants a stronger sword or a sword with a better rank in Thriller Bark? If so provide the panel.

Again did he seek to actively replace Shusui by Enma or was Enma gifted to him as a remplacement to Shusui?
It is really a simple question.
