My conspiracy theory
Zoro has already beaten luffy in the last 2 ww poll's
Since then oda is trying to bury Zoro to save luffy
Zoro family tree in sbs
Zoro not getting 2nd best opponent of arc
Zoro relearning his acoc skill
Zoro not having top 3 panel count
Etc more to come
Since the dusk has settled I’ll say that this whole zoro development is the biggest proof oda will keep him and sanji relative for the remainder of the series
This was the perfect and easiest opportunity for oda to separate them but he purposely is making zoro relearn ACOC
If he was a skilled swordsman then he might have been The strongest swordsman of his generation bare fists nerfed him against swordsman like xebec, Roger, shiki, (arguably wb)
#ONEPIECE1195
if Oda was brave, next chapter would be Sanji coming out. the setup is PHENOMENAL for a queer character. the self-hate, the over-the-top compensation with how he treats women, his whole journey in Kamabakka, Ivankov being his mentor......... it's all there. do it.
@ThroneOfTheHawk Non black blade asura Acoc Mastery zoro has the chances of giving top 1 longest haki trail in one piece more than imu and joyboy
Current base zoro already has top 3/4 conquerors haki trail
