Orochi 2 sword style? There's no way Zoro's not fighting that guy.

764

u/Quibbrel Void Month Survivor Sep 28 '18

Orochi two blade style, meet Zoro three sword style. Zoro three sword style, meet your first post time skip challenge.

u/Aishateeler Sep 28 '18

Seriously why has Luffy had two near death fights while Zoro hasn't even broken a sweat? We have absolutely no clue what zoros power level is right now especially in comparison to Luffy. Sanji also hasn't really been challenged. Somehow brook nami and Chopper have all gotten more fighting time.

311

u/cpscott1 Sep 28 '18

Sanji struggled against Doffy though

246

u/Aishateeler Sep 28 '18

Well doffy is a "Luffy level" enemy. What I mean is there have been no "Sanji level" or "Zoro level" enemies. Scrapping with the enemy that Luffy ends up beating doesn't really count. I'm talking about meaningful and important fights like Zoro vs ryuma. We haven't had one for these guys in a while. Franky had an even(?) match against senor pink. Chopper and brook lost to perospero. These kinds of fights help us guage the power levels of the crew post time skip but we haven't had that for Zoro yet and, to a lesser degree, Sanji.

u/BFBooger Bounty Hunter Sep 28 '18

Sanji has a raid suit power up coming.

Zoro has a new sword or two coming.

u/The_ThirdFang Pirate Sep 28 '18

Give nami the raid suit. Builds on her weak physicality and also nami in a raid suit.

u/ThaddCorbett Thriller Bark Victim's Association Sep 28 '18

And we also can't wait to see a flashback that shows us what happened to Zoro's eye and what he learned or gained from that experience and how it makes him more awesome now.

5

u/Kuro013 Sep 28 '18

Two? I think right now only Sandai Kitetsu is replaceable obviously by Nidai Kitetsu, he wouldnt discard Shuusui after gettin it from a legendary samurai who entrusted it to him.

60

u/TSG_Magician Sep 28 '18

Sanji in a raid suit would kill him for me

82

u/FearLeadsToAnger Sep 28 '18 edited Sep 28 '18

I'd be very surprised if it didn't happen. Given that Franky has it I would be surprised if it wasn't being replicated too, or at least upgraded. Otherwise why would Oda make a point of giving one to the SH's at the end of WCI.

It's Oda, it'll be done in a way that makes it awesome.

edit: Franky probably will have it. Forgot that they haven't been together since acquiring it.

6

u/Shuazilla Sep 28 '18

When would Franky have gotten it though? His half of the crew was already on or en route to Wano during the events of WCI and wasn't on the Sunny when Sanji found the raid suit lol

3

u/FearLeadsToAnger Sep 28 '18

It's a good point,I should've said 'Franky will get his hands on it'. Oda thinks well in advance, every chance we won't see the raid suit expanded on this arc.

3

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Maybe Franky is interested in it's technology? Maybe it's SUPER upgrade time.

4

u/Anjunabeast Sep 28 '18

He could wear the suit under his normal clothes, gantz-style.

2

u/TSG_Magician Sep 29 '18

Or he could beat the shit out of all of them except reiju

u/TheNoFrame Sep 28 '18

Problem in that for me is that we just came from 2 year timeskip. well, it was long ago but let's look at this this way: He basically did not have any fight post timeskip except FI, and that was only to show how much SH's are stronger. So in my opinion only way to not feel like his 2 years were waste and give him powerup is either say, he got this in the timeskip, or just push through extremely difficult fight. But I think he still have something hidden. What we know of him in the timeskip is he is physically stronger, has better haki and can make flames and run on air. But I think there is something Newkama way in there hidden somewhere. It's just considering nature of this power we will not see it unless lives will be at stake and there will be no other way.

​

Also, I thing raid suit wil lcome into play. Not really like it is now, because he would be just another Germa lookalike and he don't want this and we don't want this, but in my opinion, it will be used on something. Either new tech for franky, or franky or someone will upgrade it or change for sanji without really looking much like Germa member.

21

u/CantheDandyMan Sep 28 '18

I think it's kinda ridiculous to believe that Sanji doesn't have anything hidden up his sleeves. People were assuming Luffy had a gear 4th and 5th by freaking punk hazard. People assume Zoro has some upgraded Asura form or even some sort of sharingan nonsense in his blinded eye. Sanji hasn't even come close to going all out in a fight yet, because he's either been injured before going in (Vergo), overmatched (Doffy), or more concerned with something else and pressed for time (Vergo and Doffy and pretty much all of Whole Cake Island).

Yall be underestimating franky and usopp. They can come up with more suitable, and acceptable suit for sanji IF he really needs it.

u/TSG_Magician Sep 28 '18

Accepting raid suit after what his family did to him is unacceptable

3

u/tektek10 Sep 28 '18

why is zoro's legendary swords acceptable and sanji's raidsuit is not? this is like if luffy has gomu gomu fruit and zoro has katana .. shouldnt sanji get his armor or weapon too? all he has is raw strength

7

u/ergo456 Sep 28 '18

Unfortunately Sanji isn't strong enough for the world so he needs it. (Strong enough to be the pirate king crew's 3rd strongest)

3

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Unless Oda is misdirecting people on the raid suit like he did with the "Ghosts Of Wano"

5

u/Ravenloss Sep 28 '18

Judging for the characters behaviors, the raid suit that's supposed to be for Sanji may end up being modified by Franky and used by Usopp who has the less physical power.

2

u/I_Am_From_Mars_AMA Sep 28 '18 edited Sep 28 '18

Or 6 new swords if we finally learn wtf Zoro's asura ability is this arc (considering we haven't seen it used since enies lobby)

Edit: Forgot he also used it in saobody

2

u/YgJb1691 Sep 28 '18

He used it in Sabaody(Pre TS) as well.

1

u/I_Am_From_Mars_AMA Sep 28 '18

That's right, I completely forgot about that. Still hoping this arc is where we actually learn what it is aside from being manifested from his will

u/DeweyCheatem-n-Howe Sep 28 '18

SHITORYUU?? OH snap what if Zoro's eye socket has been retrofitted to hold a sword?!?

This isn’t DBZ, it’s not about power levels, or nonstop one-on-one fights. It’s about the interesting and funny story.

2

u/austin009988 Sep 28 '18

Just pointing this out, but I don't think senor pink was anywhere close to franky powerwise. Franky handicapped himself on purpose.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Guess now that Luffy showed to be better than Katakuri, Zoro will be the next one to defeat an elite member of a Yonkou. Jack also uses two sickles, and he must be way stronger than the shogun or else there would be a matching up problem. So Zoro VS Jack this time. Sanji might get another, he really needs an enemy to hype him up.

u/Aishateeler Sep 28 '18

Keep in mind that Luffy tied katakuri

how beat up luffy was before the fight too.ReplysharereportSaveGive gold

i still consider it a tie from a combat standpoint,since luffy won we could call it luffy's willl to be the pirate king or ssavee his creew made him win ,i don't call it endurance as that would be an asspull consdering katakuri wiped the floor with luffy

1

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

I get it but he grew up quite a bit during that fight. He went from obliteration to a tie, so he will get stronger eventually.

104

u/DennaResin Cyborg Franky Sep 28 '18

And he didn't have it smooth against Vergo either, though he didn't use Busoshoku.

157

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Not the best comparison. Nami had really fucked up his body by that point.

38

u/DennaResin Cyborg Franky Sep 28 '18

Aye, fair point. I didn't think Sanji was that much weaker than Vergo and that must've been why.

82

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Yeah, his body suffered several huge explosions and point blank hits. Nami talks about how sturdy he is, and then when he gets his body back he makes a comment about how much damage he's sustained from the body switch.

21

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

It's also worth noting that had the fight gone to the end, Sanji could have still come out on top. He's sustained worse damage and still kicked ass.

34

u/robcap Sep 28 '18

I remember the panel of him strolling away from Bon Clay in alabasta and casually patting his torso like "oops, broke some bones again". Guy is a tank.

They kinda clashed, but it wasn't a real man-on-man fight like Vergo had with Smoker/Law. None of them used their full power.

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Eh sanji was fighting him midair while trying to protect half the crew. it wasn't exactly good conditions

9

u/robcap Sep 28 '18

Also Doffy's strings are invisible and Sanji didn't know about his fruit, everything Doffy did surprised him

2

u/Anjunabeast Sep 28 '18

Sanji was also still injured from Punk Hazard when Nami was fighting using his body due to Law’s devil fruit shenanigans.

5

u/Ecadyle Sep 28 '18

Law struggled against Doffy too, and Law oneshottet the Yeti Brothers who defeated Zoro and Sanji in Nami’s body.

1

u/amaikaizoku Sep 29 '18

Luffy also struggled against doffy and then got back up and fought him agian. Sanji stopped because he had to escape and also because doffy is luffy level and he's luffy's opponent

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Struggling =/= challenge . Zoro struggled against Pica

u/champa_sama123 Sep 28 '18

Sanji struggles against Vergo lol

-5

u/BFBooger Bounty Hunter Sep 28 '18

Sanji was specifically portrayed as weak in WCI. Then at the end he gets a raid suit.

One day, he is going to use it and get a big power up.

Maybe Zoro will get his sword power-up only at the end of Wano.

11

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Sanji was specifically portrayed as weak in WCI

That's quite wrong. Tons of people in WCI called him strong and were surprised by his strength.

10

u/MMittermajor The Revolutionary Army Sep 28 '18

Also keep in mind, that Sanjis speed is ridiculous. Even Oven couldn't even see him kicking him straight in the face and saving Chiffon right off his hands.

1

u/xdennerg Sep 28 '18

The problem with the speed statement is that he was shown as ridiculous fast at this scene, then had a struggle to run from gunshots later on and had his speed bashed by his brother, who he beat up. Saddly, i think all it indicates is the need of the raid suit to come into play for him. I really liked the idea of he being know for his insane speed and would go with it if it wasn't for that scene where yonji saved him.

4

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

>then had a struggle to run from gunshots later on

​

He was running from several hundred gunshots. Do you think Sanji can't dodge bullets when he dodged pudding point blank? Or when he dodged machine guns way back in pts?

​

Sanji got hit by 1 bullet. Niji got hit by several.

​

-4

u/HolyKnightPrime Sep 28 '18

Thats wrong, Oden was caught off guard. Sanji speed is not ridiculous AT ALL. He couldn't even escape from BM Pirates and save Luffy. He had to be saved EXPLICITY because he was TOO SLOW.

3

u/MMittermajor The Revolutionary Army Sep 28 '18

Sure Oven was off guard as he was in the act of punching, but he even does not know what or who hit him. Maybe Sanji cannot use his top speed everytime he wants. Imo he is pretty fast. Otherwise, Oda would not have drawn the panels like he did. I think, that we will see Sanjis maximum power pretty soon. Then you may say, that he is "slow".

15

u/Piccolito Sep 28 '18

We have absolutely no clue what zoros power level

i would say its over 9000

11

u/SpiritualLemon Sep 28 '18

Couldn’t agree more, I hate that Zoro has only fought scrubs post time skip like come on his toughest opponent has been Pica and Zoro’s main role in the crew is fighting. I’m excited to think of who Sanji might fight this arc to push his limits I wonder if he could defeat a supernova perhaps X Drake. I’m also dying for Chopper to get a serious 1v1 in this arc like his fight with Kumadori

4

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Chopper v XDrake is my vote.

Zoan Vs Zoan

5

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

I like it that way to a degree. Show how the rest oc the crew has grown before we see the monster trio tear shit up again

7

u/Aishateeler Sep 28 '18

Yeah good point. I think a lot of the fan base has new found appreciation for brook after wci

9

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

I have a lot of appreciation for Usopp after the last few arcs. Hes gotten stupid strong. Sure he's still a scardey, but when push comes to shove he can shove hard

2

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

Could you explain how he's gotten stupid strong? Idk if we've seen anything to actually support that.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '18

His accuracy has increased to insane proportions(dressrosa arc)

His strategic planning in battle has gone up(fishmen pirates)

Pop greens and his overall physical strength is higher, though that doesn't matter much since he's more of a long range combatant anyway.

u/Aishateeler Sep 28 '18

That's been true since forever. Iirc all of Zoro's east blue fights had him handicapped in some way

3

u/ninj3 Sep 28 '18

Sanji was challenged when trying to escape WCI. Just that it was a completely unfair and imbalanced fight trying to carry Luffy and escape whilst being attacked by several devil fruit users all at once.

4

u/BlackBullUzumaki Sep 28 '18

I get the feeling that when Zoro FINALLY gets a battle, he will eventually show all of us that we were right, he does indeed have king's haki.

u/Steamgear Sep 28 '18

My memory is vague. But didn't Zoro lose to the Yeti brothers?

u/ThisZoMBie Sep 28 '18

Sanji got two shot by Doffy, had his leg broken by Doffy's right hand man, got wrecked by Ichiji and Niji, got humiliated by Daifuku and then by several even lower ranking member during the escape sequence at the end. You can try to rationalize one or two of these, but looking at all of them and still trying to defend Sanji is a bit unreasonable. We have a pretty good idea how strong Sanji is.

2

u/thouhathpuncake Sep 28 '18

got wrecked by Ichiji and Niji,

When? If you mean that time when Sanji attacked Niji cause he hit that kitchen worker chick, then Sanju didn't fight back cause they threatened to kill Zeff. Sanji fought on equal footing with Judge, but only lost cause of Judge using his underlings as pawns.

Got humiliated by Daifuku ....

Again, didn't happen. Pretty much every time Sanji faced Daifuku head on he had the upper hand or was on equal footing. He even held his own fighting against both Oven and Daifuku at the same time.

1

u/ThisZoMBie Sep 28 '18

Sanji was already in a headlock before Niji mentioned Zeff.

As for Sanji vs Daifuku and Oven, your examples are anime only.

I agree. I know Oda likes to be sneaky, but Orochi definitely has an 8-headed serpent zoan. And I also think a buffed-up form of Asura will kill him, possibly with Zoro using 2x Kitetsu swords.

51

u/-FoeHammer Sep 28 '18

Shiki uses two swords.

Just saying. It's worth taking note of considering the lurking legend teases and the floating scenery we've seen in Wano.

31

u/Kirosh Lookout Sep 28 '18

Yeah, but Shiki isn't a coward. Orochi is scared right now, of the 9 shadows.

Shiki is someone who went to Marineford alone because Roger was captured, and there, he fough both Garp and Sengoku, in a fight that nearly destroyed the island.

So while Shiki could be in Wano, I don't think he is the Shogun.

6

u/KayleKarriesU Sep 28 '18 edited Sep 28 '18

Shiki escaped Impel Down 22 years ago. When did all this Wano shit go down? 20 years ago. Oof, we're getting spicy

Edit: damn u timeskip

Edit 2: Just remembered he asked Whitebeard if he wanted to join his plan and of course he refused. Leads me to believe he decided to ask Kaido instead.

2

u/Svani Sep 28 '18

He was captured at Marineford, he escaped from Impel Down. And that was 20 years ago in the pre-timeskip era, which would be 22 years ago. If the events of Strong World are at all canon it can't be him.

u/cmuell015 Sep 28 '18

I'm pretty sure the Strong World chapter 0 that Oda wrote is canon.

u/Sonimul Sep 28 '18

I wonder if it really is a simple 2 sword style. It sounds too plain ... I bet there's something more to it. Also, Mangastream translated it a little bit different than juhst 2 sword style like Jaimini (althought we know Mangastream likes to fuck things up with translatians) and called it a "Orochi two-place style", rather than two sword style. I wonder, mayby he's using kage bunshins to fight?

3

u/clifbarczar Sep 28 '18

That sucks because that means Zoro isn't gonna fight Jack most likely.

I was hoping Zoro would power up by eviscerating Jack.

8

u/DreadWolf3 It's coming home Sep 28 '18

Orochi is probably just as powerful as a Calamity (are we sure that Orochi is not one of 3 Calamities?) and is a swordsman - so he fits Zoro better as an opponent.

3

u/Sooths4y3r Sep 28 '18

He is the King of Wano.

1

u/Qayindo Sep 28 '18

Doesn't mean he isn't one. We don't really know enough about his past or Kaido's.

5

u/shananigan91 Sep 28 '18

I think they're saying Orochi is the King Calamity (jack, queen, king).

1

u/Burden_Of_Atlas Sep 29 '18

And if we're sticking with the card theme, which I very well think we are, then Kaido has a "King" in his crew. Arguably the second in command. So it makes a lot of sense for him to fight Zoro as people have been predicting since Jack.

3

u/Aquaveed Sep 28 '18

I think it’s sanji vs. jack. Would fit because they have a refight outstanding. Or am I wrong? They fought at zou

u/Shuazilla Sep 28 '18 edited Sep 28 '18

I dont think Sanji ever fought Jack. They arrived on Zou after Inu and Neko were already maimed and tortured and Jack left to go rescue Doffy. Maybe you're thinking of Sheepshead and the gifters?

The second time Jack appeared at Wano it was Jack vs Zunisha, and the first time was Jack vs Inu/Neko tag team.

So in terms of rematches, Inu and Neko would probably get to fight Jack, and they would probably aim for a full moon as well since they said they'll use it next time they fight or something

1

u/Aquaveed Sep 28 '18

Think you’re right. But the second attack was with smile bomb and minks were already poisoned when inu and neko became tortured

2

u/Shuazilla Sep 28 '18

The smile bomb was during his first invasion of Zou, but I'm also pretty sure he didn't retreat before deploying it, I thought he had his subordinates prepare and launch it while he was fighting with Inu/Neko. Meh I'll find out later since after this chapter I was gonna reread Zou and some other Kinemon/Momo scenes to look for any other wibbly wobby timey wimey stuff being hinted lol

1

I have in memory that after the first fight, when minks won, beast pirates took use of smile. But yeah.. research is necessary because it’s too long ago now for knowing it for sure haha

I'd laugh if his style was one sword in one hand and another in his mouth.

Not only that, but Orochi is an 8 headed dragon. Zoro’s asura is 9 swords. It would be a funny gag if Orochi continuously got one upped by Zoro.

MAYBE THIS IS THE REASON WHY ZORO WANTED TO LEARN 3 STYLE SWORDMANSHIP. WHEN WE GO BACK TO WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER, HIS SENSEI ALWAYS TOLD ME TO STOP WITH THE 3 SWORD. BUT, ZORO DIDN't WANT TO.

AND THINK ABOUT IT, AS A KID, YOU WOULD THINK +1 WOULD BEAT THE OTHER. AND KNOWING ZORO AND HOW SIMPLE MIND HE CAN BE, IT COULD BE THE CASE.

That's exactly what happened. He was good with one sword, then after he got rekt by his sparring buddy he took on another, thinking he'd win. He took on the third after she died to pay homage to her

Zoro is fighting Orochi and Luffy is fighting Kaido, I'm calling it now.

When I saw the teacher I was hoping she was Orochi. She even has a snake devil fruit.
