Yoru the blade of the worlds strongest swordsman. What do you imagine makes the blade in particular so special and strong outside of it being weild by mihawk and a black supreme grade?
Its a supreme grade blade like shodai kitetsu, nurakumogiri, and ace but what can it do thst they can't?
Examples of other sword capabilities:
Graded sword wado survives random ones dont
After loguetown with zoros 2 new graded swords
Yubashiri helping him cut and move faster at least during ittoriyu
Kitetsu easily cutting through stone without even trying adding to zoro lethalness
Shusui adding to his attack power
a black blade adds to the blades hardness/toughness but i don't think everything special about it was strictly because of it. Could be wrong tho
Enma strengthening mastery of armament haki when mastered + adding more attack power by pulling out more haki than normally used. And just being an insanely wanked sword
Enma is the only sword that has wounded Kaido.
No matter which translation you want to use, it says the same thing. Only Enma has injured Kaido:
Hiyori knew perfectly well that Oden was a dual sword wieldier, who was famous for his 2 sword style and she knew perfectly well about Ame no Habakiri:
And yet, she still confirmed that only Enma injured Kaido. Not Oden. Not Habakiri.
Only Enma.
Despite having both swords, the one who was Oden's beloved one was Enma:
Kozaburo says that blacksmiths try to create swords that are better at killing than other swords
And that Enma was his masterpiece. Meaning it's the best sword at killing that he ever made
When Zoro fails to cut Kaido the first time he says he need to release more of Enma's power:
This is what happens when Zoro unleashes Enma's power:
"That's no ordinary sword!!!"
"That katana the source of that strange haki"
And only then he is able to cut Kaido: (Notice that Kaido recognized that it's Oden's sword from the fact that it hurts when Zoro cut him)
When Zoro uses Ashura? That's right, Enma glows and Zoro is able to cut Kaido
The only times Zoro was able to cut Kaido was when Enma was glowing. This can be proved even with Kinemon.
When Kinemon cuts boro breath with "flamerend" he also cuts Kaido through it
When Zoro did exactly same thing with the same attack, he couldn't cut Kaido, despite being closer to Kaido than Kinemon was.
Why? Because Enma was not glowing, meaning its power was not activated.
There's also another Enma's magic power. It is allowing Zoro to hear Hiyori's music from the basement level all the way outside where he was fighting King:
It wouldn't be surprising to me if in the future Enma gives Zoro a CoO haki boost.
"King of Hell = Enma"
Most people forget that "King of Hell" is just another name for "Enma"
So when you replace all of Zoro's "King of Hell" lines with "Enma", it shows just how much Zoro depends on Enma:
Zoro got "Enma" mode due to Enma.
And decided to become Enma itself:
You don't do that unless the sword is the sword is your main power.
After getting Enma, he just cannot stop starring at it or let it go:
And it makes sense because Enma made him go from tobiroppo level to commander level and gave the power to cut Kaido. He loves this sword.
"But if Enma is the one cutting, why Kaido got an X scar?"
This can be explained with Zoro's Enma mode:
This explains how Oden cut Kaido with both swords despite only Enma being said to cut Kaido- Enma gave Habikir the power to cut Kaido.
Conclusion
Enma is everything to Zoro. Enma is now Zoro's whole identity (King of Hell)
Without Enma:
No matter which translation you want to use, it says the same thing. Only Enma has injured Kaido:

When Zoro fails to cut Kaido the first time he says he need to release more of Enma's power:
- He doesn't say he needs to use haki
- He doesn't say he needs to use ryou
This is what happens when Zoro unleashes Enma's power:
"That's no ordinary sword!!!"
"That katana the source of that strange haki"
And only then he is able to cut Kaido: (Notice that Kaido recognized that it's Oden's sword from the fact that it hurts when Zoro cut him)

"But if Enma is the one cutting, why Kaido got an X scar?"
This can be explained with Zoro's Enma mode:
- It's not Zoro mode
- it's not Wado mode
- It's not Sandai mode
This explains how Oden cut Kaido with both swords despite only Enma being said to cut Kaido- Enma gave Habikir the power to cut Kaido.
Conclusion
Enma is everything to Zoro. Enma is now Zoro's whole identity (King of Hell)
Without Enma:
- Zoro would not have been able to cut Kaido
- Would not have been able to achieve Enma mode
- Would not have been able to awaken CoC
- Would not have been able to reach commander level
