Discussion Shusui, Enma, Nidai, or Unknown?

[Gomu Gomu no Tako]

There's a very high chance he's gonna end up with the nidai kitetsu. About the rest i don't really know nor do i care.

Looks like they are carved but doesnt mean this silhouette is a 100% proof of how they are inscribed upon.
If we look closer, there are interesting details to be seen, something that looks like water splashing and some smoke or perhaps magma erupting.
Maybe they are made from a special mineral mined in Wano when it erupts from Mt Fuji and gets cooled down by seawater...

The Poneglyph must also be somewhat related to Seastone, since they also originated from Wano. The seawater must not be a coincidence.

At the end of the arc, Wano wont need Shusui to protect it because it will have something better, the name of Ronin Zorojuro as its protector.
Meaning Zoro will get Shusui back and probably upgrade his Sandai to Nidai and with that he will have 3 swords of 2nd grade each.
On the other hand, maybe Zoro leaves Wano with 3 swords which have white sheathes - Wado Ichimonji, Enma if it is the white one and King's sword.

I think it is primetime that Zoro gets a supreme grade sword because my man definitely deserve something expensive and top shelf. But the biggest issue I have is not knowing how swords are graded. No matter how shiny and sharp and elegant the sword is, put it into different hands and you will see different results. Seeing all these swords are nice but until Oda shows us what makes a sword fall into what category, they are kind of all the same to me. What really matters is, how good is the user's form/skills? Is their haki strong enough? And those have nothing to do with swords on the outset but they can be applied to all blades and weapons in general.

Think Zoro is going to leave with both.

He'll make Wado into a Black Blade along with receiving Nidai and Enma. I also think Enma will be that fire blade that Zoro said he wanted during Fishman Island.

Everyone needs to level up before they make the run to Raftel.

Yeah, Wado needs some spotlight. It seems it's being forgotten about given how important this blade must be. Not only to Zoro but I also assume that it originates from Wano and perhaps has a very interesting history behind it.

I wouldn't be surprised if a swordsmith from Shimotsuki family forged it.

And speaking of forgotten blades... It's almost guaranteed that we get an explanation on cursed blades sooner or later. So we might understand what the kitetsu lineup is all about.

Given how much interest Zoro has shown towards Nidai Kitetsu I'm certain he will probably end up breaking his current sword and receive the nidai later on...

Also... Come to think about it, I somehow get a feeling that it might as well be Wado Ichimonji that Zoro cuts Kaido with. He "lost" Shusui, Sandai Kitetsu might break and Enma I honestly have no idea but wouldn't it be much cooler if Zoro gives the honors of cutting Kaido to Wado instead of Enma.

It just seems way cooler and dramatic to me if Zoro is left with only one sword and then remembers Kuina and his promise to her and slashes Kaido in an epic fashion turning his blade black along the way.

And when the war is over Wano people begin to realize that Shusui had nothing to do with what happened to their country and give it back to Zoro...

 

[afromarco005]

When Zoro cuts Kaido with Wado ichimonji Kuina and all of east blue will be proud of him.

Enma is definetly a top grade sword but it was most likely Oden's Ryuo that strenghtened the blow and cut Kaido as others been saying its 15%sword 85%User

At the end of the day Zoro's haki and skills will be the most important factor in a fight no matter what blades he uses heck he beat Killer with a darn scythe

Now that you guys mentioned wado ichimongi, realistically speaking it could also have some significance to the overall story. The manga has hinted pretty hard that zoro's master at least is from wano. Meaning that wado could have been in wano up until zoro's master left. At the very least, if wado gets recognized by someone from wano it could lead to some plot development. Perhaps a connection to the revolutionary army?

 

[King Moe]

Don't think Zoro be capable of major damage still. Also don't see him surpassing Oden in hurting him or even being equal to damaging him. Plus Luffy want be the one who get in defeating him as stated. Zoro respect Luffy handling his own fights, so don't think it happening at all.

He might show off his spotlight fighting Orochi or maybe King, but given his fight performance lately, kinda weary if he can even handle King himself that some think he is still potentially final opponent.

 

[thedude]

I'd like to see him have one forged by Hitetsu. A new sword that rivals the old generation swords, specifically made for Zoro.

 

[Gomu Gomu no Tako]

I'm starting to like this idea as well. I feel like wano has to be ruled by momo and and his sister both owning one sword from their deceased father. What would be really kind of funny but probably not happening, is oda not tellung us what grade odens sword have. It already happened to cavendishs durandal sword when we got the same information, that it is a meito. I'm still holding on to my vote for the nidai. However oda does always suprise us. Maybe back to Shusui or zorro might get lost finding a sword or getting one from a Shimotsuki ancestor, or a cool one saved by the graveyard guys or hitetsu really does work on something for him or he wins one in battle. We have already seen bad guys getting their hands on good swords. All possible.
Nevertheless what he will accomplish in wano (probably beating king) should give him a proper bounty for a first mate. We will for sure get to know why kitetsu is cursed. Long time ago i thought they are not really cursed but something tells me there's some truth behind it.
