For those who have read my other threads they know that I do not subscribe to 3 or more arc fights left for the SHPs in the story. Things like Luffy fighting Akainu and BB and Shanks and Imu dont make sense to me at this point in the story, even earlier the power level progression made it very difficult to envision such progression. And apart from Luffys expected matchups we only have Zoros possible matchups to predict how the story might progress. Actually it much easier basing it on Zoros then on Luffys since Luffy has much more options, including the four mentioned above. Imu screaming and sweating from JB haki pretty much confirms that Luffy will fight him (Imu aint no just figurehead, he has some sort of mythical zoan like the Gorosei).
Now coming to the point, Zoro has 3 matchups that seem very likely now. Shiryu because of BB being destined to fight Luffy, then we have Mihawk with the promised duel and now we also have Nasujuro with the Kitetsu connection. However this still leaves three arc fights which seems difficult to be compressed in the final saga.
So going on BBPs aim for the world and Devon getting Saturns copy there is a chance of BBs going for MJ. And I was thinking what if BB is the final villain, how would Oda build hype for them. BB himself has the third DF thing but what about Shiryu, that Garp stab is not enough to build him as a worthy opponent.
How would BBPs raiding MJ feel like and taking down a few Gorosei or something. What if Shiryu manages to get the Kitetsu from Nasujuro, would that not build him up as a worthy Zoro opponent. I know he has Raiu his named blade but what if he gets the Kitetsu 1.
Very few are hyped for the Zoro vs Shiryu matchup and so far the best theory to make it exciting is that Shiryu becomes nothingness due to DF awakening and then Zoro becomes the only one to be able to cut nothing and achieve black blade. But this reads like a Pica fight which nobody wants as a battle so near the end. Will Shiryu defeating Nasujuro and getting Kitetsu 1 give him enough hype and satisfy the fandom? If one of these fights is to be sacrificed then which should it be?
