That´s the kind of shit i hate in one piece and shonen shows in general. Authors ALWAYS hesitate to kill characters who already fulfilled their role and would add height and drama to the story with their deaths.
Instead, we get him surviving a thunder bagua FULL of haki straight to his head only so we can see him do a few poses and say some more bullshit.
Killing him, hyogoro and raizo would greatly improve the arc on top of passing the responsability to the new generation with momonosuke creating his own scabbards starting with yamato(at least until she set sea to join luffy).
That´s why i loved stuff like gantz and alice in borderland, their authors never hesitate to kill a bunch of people, especially does that already fulfilled their role.
Truth be told: I hate happy endings, i like when everybody dies with only the MC and a few friends surviving because it brings realism to the story.
