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

[Blazing Lion]

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.

Why you arguing with @kekaro, a true Begji fan, they are never beating the (non existent reading comprehension) allegations.

 

[Albino 👑]

I know people love to pretend enma isn’t a power up but denying shusui is one is insane

 

[Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier]

Zoro's too strong for ordinary swords without Haki.

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

This.

Zoro was capable of using his strongest attack pre timeskip all the way back in the east blue

He might not say it, but every power up he had was after he got new swords...

 

[Rukusho]

If picking up a sword and getting stronger was that easy a lot of swordsman would do it, its not that simple your strength has to match the sword and vice versa.

Zoro having powerful swords indicates how powerful he is... the swordsman makes the sword -- the sword doesn't make the swordsman basic 101.

 

[Vanlax]

Zoro is not Ryuma.

Exactly, he's going to be stronger than Ryuma.

Did shusui make Zoro stronger?

 

[Finalbeta]

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?

If you look closely he pulls substantial damage against the adversary without Enma being particularly highlighted. It was more of a training tool.

 

[Santoryu D Bazooka]

Roger Rayleigh Shanks Mihawk.. are all one Sword users.. And all Zoro has to do then is just focus on 1 sword style moves and use Wado alot more often and keep the basic swords for extra tech.. so yes he could keep up as long as he focuses on Wado.

 

[The White Crane]

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

No.

Mihawk is WSS and has the world's strongest sword. Zoro should only be WSS with the same condition fulfilled.

 

[Rukusho]

Did shusui make Zoro stronger?

Not until he adapts to it .. otherwise it's a hindrance, he stated it was too heavy.

Zoro is not given free powerups everything he attains he has to work for it.

Okay so devil fruits aren’t a power up because you have to train to better use them

 

[BattalGazi]

Exactly, he's going to be stronger than Ryuma.

Nope Ryuma will never be surpassed.

 

[LolonoisZolo]

Wano started with Zoro performing a building level slash casually with a seppuku knife...chapter 1.

 

[Rumble]

The stronger Zoro becomes, the less capable ordinary swords are capable of withstanding that strength.

Give him 3 of the very best of special graded swords and luffy still washes this bugger and will be equal to Sanji who never uses his hands to fight.

The answer is pretty clear, take those special swords away then zoro will be the laughing stock of the worst generation lol

 

[Albino 👑]

The stronger Zoro becomes, the less capable ordinary swords are capable of withstanding that strength.

The only attack you can really argue that with is the post timeskip upgraded version of sanzen sekai. An attack that zoro basically said he had to use hardening to protect his blades

No other attack pre dressrosa or even pre timeskip did zoro even imply his attacks were too much on his swords

 

[Orojackson Refugee]

zoro would compensate with increased haki growth
remember, luffy zoro sanji are the roger pirate parallel, always close in strength

 

[Vanlax]

Nope Ryuma will never be surpassed.

Good luck with Two Pieces
