    Not only is Zoro's story about finding out what makes the Greatest Swordsman, this video makes me realize that the reason he hasn't been defeated or been truly pushed is because he hasn't met a REAL Swordsman. Interesting. That has huge implications for Zoro's battles in the Wano Arc.

    • @binkssake7282

      Kyoshiro has been called a samurai..And the fact that he didn't kill Hiyori shows that he has honor and his brief clash with Zoro after Yasuie's execution does not show an arrogant sword wielder, but a calm Samurai who proclaims his job is to protect the Shogun. While Kyoshiro is still a wild card, if Craft's analysis is anything to go by, which I think it is, Zoro has met a true swordsmen. Thoughts?

    Mihawk called zoro a weak one before they clashed forces. Upon zoros defeat, when mihawk was about to slice zoros back, zoro turned around and stated “a cut on a swordsman back signifies running.” This cause mihawk to respect zoro and referred to him as strong one.

    A swordsman is the most powerful fighting style. And this comes with few drawbacks, being a rather cold, harsh and dark character. Not the most liked person in the world. Once you enter the level of the greatest you will ask yourself whether you're good or evil. This is what it means to be a swordsman. You're a rather dark character compared to others who seem more balanced. The advantage of course you're unbeatable, you'll rather die fighting than surrender to anyone. I'm a swordsman just like this man. My goal however was to defeat god. So I can easily call myself Zoro. Unfortunately only I found out that god doesn't exist. Few years I didn't know where to release my fury. I broke a lot of stuff. My fury finally ceased after many years. I finally accepted who I am.

      But they did kind of fly over them while he was at it, so we can agree that he made a mistake to call it some sort of weakness when he had time to cut them off but because of Luffy he waited for him to destroy that big thing. That shit is feckin durable, proven in Impel Down when Luffy and the prisoners fought Magellan and when Sengoku attacked them when they tried to save Ace.
      This moment just proved how far someone would go for their goal, while Nami and Vivi gave up on doing anything Zoro decided to something that 90% of OP world wouldn't without any hesitation.
      That feat just proves that he will someday be up there on top and that he'll be there for Luffy when they reach their final destination.
      P.S. Idk if you read manga, but man! Can't wait to see what's Zoro gonna show us next!😁

      I like that Orochi seems more reletable now, and why do I for some reason feel like Oden is alive and the grandma was acting like Oden? Orochi 100% betrayed her or Kaido recognized her and killed her. There's also the chance that Shiki is from Wano so that's why she turned into him when she showed her power. Maybe Shiki is indeed that enemy Oda was talking about?
