Future Events Your Wildest Hopes for Zoro This Arc
I still kinda wish it happened though, like all that build up and multiple panels with Zoro saying he wanted to kill Orochi and avenge Yasuie, the emotional connection between him and Yasuie, the connection between Zoro and the shimotisuki. Connection between Zoro, Ryuma, Shusui and the Shimotsuki.
All that for absolutely nothing lol. like that panel where he was lying down and said it actually gave me chills:

Yeah, it would have been satisfying to see Zoro bring it to Orochi (which he still could if the latter is revived), but from his proper introduction, it was clear that he was never gonna be our guy’s final fight 
Zoro wasn't wheezing:
This isn't a thread about what is most likely to happen. This is a thread to register your wildest hopes for Zoro this arc. Your predictions are supposed to be outlandish. If you give out tame predictions, then you're not participating properly.
My wildest expectation is that ZKK does not happen but Zoro does something more impressive than ZKK
The Orochi vengeance plot would be fulfilled by defeating Kaido, the man behind Orochi.
I had a few thoughts on that the other day, like I understand what you’re saying but the goal and purpose that Zoro had in mind is only indirectly being achieved by them defeating Kaido. Like Zoro reasoning for cutting Kaido down now is because Kaido is regarded as the strongest and also due to the alliances main goal being to take down Kaido. Zoros reasoning for being on the roof now isn’t really to avenge Yasuie. It’s not like Zoro changed his target to Kaido because he realised he’s the big boss, Zoro can’t kill Orochi because someone else got to him first. I mean if Zoro does mention Yasuie up here it would be cool. But it feels lacklustre to me, I would rather Zoro have killed Orochi after all that build up we had. Like when Kaido killed Orochi out of the blue I was like “shit well this changes things lol”
No this has already been explained a billion times. Oden did the same thing zoro did attacked orochi in anger and got stopped.
All odens beef was with orochi
He killed his dad
Ruined his country
Attacked his wife and kids
Had hyous wife killed
Not kaido
Yet he realised the main threat was kaido.
Zoro has done the same
The second to last thing yasu says before he died is no one has taken kaidos head in 20 years so sail to onigahsima to avenge your fallen lord

For me, making a black blade right now would be too much. Only 2 are known in the entirety of OP, both made by sword gods.
No matter how talented Zoro is, and how strong his will is, making it right now would sort of cheapen it.
That being said, Oda could prove me wrong if he goes about forging it the right way.

Since I first created the thread, I've more than doubled the # of poll options (from 10 to 22). I probably wouldn't be adding that many (if at all) new options before the poll closes (I'll extend if by 10 more days), so I thought to retag people to vote.
The new poll options are:
The new poll options are:
- Zoro cuts through Kaido's club
- Zoro cuts Mount Fuji.
- Zoro cuts Big Mom
- Zoro oneshots King
- Kaido acknowledges Zoro as being stronger than Oden
- The Yonkou compare Zoro to Mihawk/Shanks
- Zoro is compared to Ryuma
- There is a chapter title that contains "Zoro"
- Zoro turns another sword (other than Enma) black
- Zoro uses Asura
- Zoro and Luffy combine an attack together
- Zoro displaying COC

No to what? My opinion and thoughts on the matter lol?
Back then when Orochi killed Yasuie. Around that time in the manga there was so much build up for it like it was right there. The connections the emotions the build up, all of it.
If Orochi was still alive right now and there was two doors on Onigashima, one leads to Kaido and the other leads to Orochi, and they were all running towards those doors. I can safely say Zoro would have taken the door to Orochi. Of course I’m not Zoro but going of his character and emotions I believe that’s what he would do. His actions when he wanted to kill Orochi there and then showed this in my opinion.
As I said before and I still stand by this, but this is how I feel:
“Like if a solider killed my friend and that solider is dead killing the general doesn’t make me feel like I’ve avenged my friend. I mean that’s just my opinion”
It’s indirectly achieving that goal. Kaido didn’t order Orochi to kill Yasuie, yeah they are connected, but people talk as if Orochi was some lackey lol, even if defeating or killing Kaido achieves that goal it’s only because Kaido is the only target left to be able to achieve that. When Orochi was right there he was gunning for Orochi. Kaido is the next best thing in terms of that vengeance. Even if Zoro does feel that or say that killing Kaido is his goal in order to avenge Yasuie then it still really won’t sit right with me because I personally feel that Zoro killing Orochi would have better achieved that goal.
