I think there are more samurais of Kyoshiro's caliber, the two that were shown with Kyoshiro at Orochi's banquet. Hard to guess still who will fight who but some of the retainers still might end up fighting Orochi's army. At least those two with Kyoshiro should be strong and I hoped that at least 2-3 among the Oniwaban are a serious challenge but so far only Daikoku looks to be able to use his brain, Fukurokuju aside...

yeah i know orochi also has strong samurai too
i just felt like orochi should be finished by samurai from kozuki family side. Would give more meaning to the fight.
SHP should fight beast pirate because SHP aims to become a yonkou-tier pirate, after all.... so they need to prove their worth

I am kinda hoping for a pagodefight with Zoro, where he must defeat Orochis strongest adversarys on multiple floors to get to Orochi as his final obstacle.

Dude that would be a dream come true. There's been some chinese filmvs I've seen where it's like that. Some nice martial arts choreography. To think of Zoro doing that would be awesome if it was all on panel. I mean he kind of did that back in Alabasta.

 

[Brandish μ]

^Yea, Game of Death comes to mind.

I'd be totally down with that, or any situation where I can let my Zoro fanboyism run loose.

Didn't Zoro say he would unite the samurai on Wano? And if so, will he achieve that??

 

[M3J]

Zoro most likely will, especially with how he protected Yasuie's daughter I bet.

 

[TitaniumOxide]

If Zoro unites the Samurai, which he will, then Ninsuit Sanji should unite all the soba venders and ninjas lool. I saw it in Shrek 4. You don't wanna be hungry after your battle mmmkay?

But in all seriousness, there is no reason why Zoro would be unable to unite the samurais. They are about respect and power. WOAH THAT RONIN GOIN TOE TO TOE WITH BOSS KYOUSHIRO! Zoro already got fanbois. Word will spread. He will revive the glory of the samurais so they stop taking shit from corrupt magistrates! Samurais are better than that right? Lastly, Yasue was beloved and who helped save his daughter from getting shot by Orochi? Zoro and Sanji. Actions speak louder than words. And that is how he will gain the respect from the samurais.

I also have a feeling that bridge monk who jacked Zoro sword will play a role here. He will give back Shusui and recognize Zoro to be another hero of Wano. The sword is very ceremonial and sacred almost to the samurais. A leader of the samurai should have a sword of great esteem. Zoro be walking down the flower capital and people would go yeah, only he should be the one to wield that blade.

Needless to say, the samurais if not the general warriors of Wano, will be joining the Strawhat Grandfleet. Wano will be under Straw Hat protection. I mean momo you better! Motherfucking world government. Whatchu got now? Strawhat Pirates got Okamas, Ninjas, and Samurais not to mention Giants and Antman. I mean Dwarves. Diversity rules.

the thing I find weird with zoro fighting orochi is that will leave kinemon and the other retainers with no purposes
i felt like the SHP+law should be focused to fight another pirates and the kozuki family samurai should fight the orochi family army

I bet Orochi's opponent will be Kinemon. He will revenge Oden's death. Besides, from a single slash we already know Orochi is no match for Zoro. But it may still be a challenge for Kinemon.

 

[TitaniumOxide]

At this rate Orochi would have to fight Kanjuro's poorly drawn birds...he's such a coward. I can't believe he is using a gun in Wano to execute people.

 

[M3J]

I think the sword stealer will somehow be the catalyst to Zoro making allies out of samurai as he promised and having them join the fight, but I forgot if the troll under the bridge is important enough for that or if he's a sole troll.

 

[King Moe]

Feel Zoro vs Orochi is destined. Zoro can't let go what happen to Yasu and let someone else handle it or at least completely. Plus still not convinced that's all to Orochi as again for Oda to give an special DF to a 'fodder' person, seems wasteful than just a regular DF. Don't think that's all to his power especially following lore of 'Orochi' is true, he won't go down easily especially by cutting him.

 

[Fox666]

Even if Orochi can regrow his heads, doesn't change that he was already paralyzed from a basic attack from Zoro. Besides wouldn't Haki overcome his Devil Fruit abilities? We haven't seen a Logia being a coward, yet using his regeneration to overpower his opponent, right?

Luffy is already in position to gather 5000 allies from the prison.

Any Samurai Zoro would gather would be minimal. He could help provide weapons for those 5000 tho.

Don't forget Sanji gaining his own 5000 himself and Soba-Mask/Stealth Mask persona. It going to be a lot of gathering from the others especially them.

Probably because he needs to transform to survive it. In Human form, he is more vulnerable, so can explain his fear about it. Giving hints on his weakness(es) to beat him down the line.

We have wait and see on what Oda got in store for him.

Wtf, how did Sanji gain 5000 people?

I dont see how haki would overcome regrowing heads. Zoros attacks are fast and dont keep in contact very long. Sure he would kill head after head, but then his haki wouldnt "touch" Orochi anymore and then he could regrow. The same would apply to buggy i believe, even when he gets cut by haki, he coule reattach hmself.

 

[King Moe]

He will gain just like Luffy and Zoro will gain later on. Their efforts help act start of rebellion more by going against them. Sanji has the traits to help with that and I mention his persona is used for that purpose.

That's just your imagination, as some would put it your "headcanon".

I think that the more we learn about orochi the more we can come to the conclusion that all the hype surrounding him is actually propaganda.

Zoro won't even get to kill his boredom with orochi, Kyoshiro on the other hand looks like a worthy opponent.

Nah, gonna happen. Strawhats always gather allies on big scale. These 3 are the ones who made first move to start fighting against Kaido's group. Why you think it won't happen them gathering others? Seems like someone got headcannon think they know how Oda works XD.

Yes they gather allies, and maybe all of them together gathering 5000 allies is a likely scenario, but for Sanji alone to get 5000 is super unlikely.

Talking about all together or separate each respectively?
