° Swordmanship or sword skill or sword way a term that makes the majority of the fandom coping but what does it mean ?
well Zoro said it :
Why Zoro why ?
Zoro :
i want to get stronger .
so Swordmanship is lied to strength Huh ???
getting trained under way of sword / Swordmanship = Getting Stronger
i didn't see Zoro saying :
i want to be more skilled after training my Swordmanship.
Hmmmm
Again what did Zoro say ?
Now focus on what Mihawk says :
° Why would i Teach You Swordmanship ?
Zoro :
To surpass You
Mihawk :
You want me to raise a swordman after teaching him to Kill me ?
so let me clear things out :
Mihawk trains Zoro the way of sword / swordmanship so Zoro could beat him , and that only happens if Zoro got stronger than Mihawk.
So Mihawk trains Zoro to get far stronger by improving his sword skills .
so Sword skills =Strength .
Now what did Zoro improve from his sword skills ?
THE ONLY FLASH BACK WE GOT FOR ZORO'S TRAINING IS HIM GETTING TRAINED FOR HAKI .
His sword skills remained the same , the same moves are getting shown but with better strength .
Now let's conclude what we have here :
Zoro asked Mihawk to train him the way of sword so he could get stronger and beat him mihawk and he could be said to surpass him :
Trained under the way of sword / Swordmanship = Trained his Haki = Fighting Mihawk = Surpassing him .
that's what canon offered now keep coping .
