I find this even better.The fight scene in this chapters are bonkers plus the lore drop and Zoro remmebering his ambition the easiest 5/5 on level of 1010 1023 .
The only problem i have is S VS Q is mid compared ot this no haki show by either .Q just emitting lasers as usual but his durability is high asf mf laughed to HM.Oda has to make this fight better.

Yeah, this chapter is easily at the level of 1010 & 1023, and zoro vs king will be the best fight of the series for zoro.
I think wano arc really is a zoro arc because chapter 1010, 1023 & 1033 all three are related to zoro & king. I will give my opinion on chapter tomorrow when tcb Scan comes out!!
Btw what do you think about last page, where zoro use CoC, is it ACoC or CoC only?

Edit:- The promise zoro is referring to might be the promise he made with sanji in 1031!!

Son of a mother f-ing female dog! Oda sensei really needs to stop these moments. IT is getting me very excited. The scene with the village geezer talking to Zoro about him making the blade and how it finds a worthy wielder. And he his Shimotsuki! Ironic that Zoro was aquainted with the guy who left Wano! He is the one that created Enma and Wado Ichimonji! Enma has been testing Zoro. And Zoro knows that he needs to go all out! Now Zoro has finally 'awakened' greatly. Now the fight will get crazy. Queen talking to Sanji about Lunarians how they were called 'Gods'. How they were wiped out is something that Sanji needs to find out.

Zoro is finally realising the connection between Kozaburo and Kuina and maybe before the end of the arc he'll learn about Ushimaru ! I'm curious to see what is Ushimaru's connection with Kozaburo ngl, Zoro HAS to be Ushimaru's son, meaning that he's probably even more closely related to Kuina than just sword companions.

One of the best chapter of Wano arc.
All the king lore and zoro lore get me hyped soo much that I can't wait for next chapter but sadly I know that next chapter will be not about king vs Zoro.
King is a real Beast and proving his reputation as the righthand man of kaido. He blasted himself...... attacked by zoro with lion song and still unscrached, and before that he has already taken three massive attacks of zoro. Zoro's arsenal is almost empty...... only one attack left Asura but I doubt he will use it, he will probably use a new attack.
Some king lore by Queen as always and There were Gods before celestial dragons but they exterminat them all, except King(really want to know his real name and will he play a big role is future of one piece). Also excited about sanji vs queen fight(because sanji just attacked him and queen is fine just like king.... both are monsters).
Now let's come to the most important part... enma and his creator Shimotsuki Kozaburo. Really loved the flashbacks and Zoro's past revelation, excited for more.

@Ayu_01 @FMmatron
I just found a connection & the reason why Enma is called the king of underworld, btw I love Goda and again this is a proof of him being a great Manga Ka:-
Enma is the god of hell who judges right and wrong after a human dies and falls into hell. Enma gives many kinds of dreadful punishments. The word Enma comes from Yama in Sanskrit and Pali, a language for Buddhist writings in Sri Lanka, Myanmar and Thailand.

I almost spat whatever was in my mouth when I read the title “Shimotsuki Kozaboro”, you know it's gonna be good.
Looks like Mr. Morj was right on this one.
Finally, a Zoro chapter looks like he started to ask questions, the part where he knocked those underlings without even making a big fuss about it was so badass.

Just let the haki flow.

This chapter was just wow. Finally the Zoro development that was desperately needed.

Confirmations aside, what I loved the most is how Zoro's relationship with Luffy has progressed over the course of the story. Initially he joined him because he didn't have much of a choice. That didn't mean that he lacked in loyalty. He looked out for his captain ever since. He kept him on track when necessary. After his loss to Mihawk he made his promise and was the first one to refer to Luffy as Pirate King. In Thriller Bark he went even as far prioritizing the dream of his captain over his own. So although Zoro is also the guy who keeps making things worse at times, as their synergy is like fire + wind, they got each others back. Their dynamic is adorable with occasionally some friendly competitiveness. Looking back at the beginning of Wano, it's great how this arc kicked off with the reunion of these two.

The connection between Zoro's village and Wano has finally been established. We also got a little more info about King's race, but I feel like more details about that, and especially about how they got wiped out, won't be revealed for a while (hopefully that info comes sooner though). Now that Zoro seems to have figured out how to tame Enma, this battle should shift in his favor.

I'm definitely avoiding the leaked chapters. I want my One Piece experience to be fresh. That being said, this chapter was everything I wanted in post time skip One Piece. Zoro on the backfoot once again, figuring out a different way to claim his victory.

Haki constantly leaking out is perfect for a guy like Zoro with crazy high endurance. I look forward to what his next attack is going to be. I also really love Oda bringing back early One Piece style artwork for the flashback. Plus the lore drops about cursed swords make a lot of sense. Strong characters in One Piece never think twice about putting their lives on the line.

Normally, a flashback comes right before the deciding blow. With all the players in this arc, it might be a while before we see Zoro take the W. I guess in the end, Zoro and Sanji were both holding back on the grandest stage of their lives so far. The difference is that Zoro embraces his powers and all the disadvantages that comes with it.

To me, that makes Zoro a better character than Sanji, a guy who is always fighting with two hands behind his back. Maybe Sanji holding back all the time vs Zoro going all out all the time is the real reason they are fated rivals.

Its WORO season baby
and gtf out who were saying Zoro forgot his dream to be WSS and the story just flesh out Luffy and oda forgot about him.The one trait which I love about Zoro even though he was out of my top 5 for while now is that the mf never gives up and he goes all out ini everything .Haters always using his loyalty for their own agendas.
For me this is the best chapter of Onigashima Raid better than 1010 because we get so much lore about swords its master King race confirmation epic fight Zoro adv Coc and the backstory made me attach to zoro even more.
But i gotta say Oda is doing Sanji bad though he gave him all char dev but his fight is joke compared to it.There is just laser going around like wtf queen you were using same attack since 1023 if he doged them why will his stronger form not doge it,i hope Q shows more move.
After the disaster of 1030 we got all awesome chaps lets wait for more.
@Volkur nice thoery.
@FMmatron gotta love Zoro more after this chap.He is so badass and raw and the panel of him blitzing K and using Shishi Sonson on K is goated panel.
Its annoying i cant use picture here do you know you can i post some panels as i took scrreenshot but have no idea how to post it.

@Ayu_01 wano have Negatives but still you can't deny that wano have soo many charater development of different characters and mainly for the straw hats that.... it gives me nostalgia and it feels like we are reading pre time skip when straw hat are together and fight there respective battle, whereas luffy defeats the main opponent.

And I don't think that queen is week, because he(sanji) hits queen with hell's memories and even after that queen is still up and standing like nothing happened.
Don't forget that he's a cyborg, so he have some deadly attacks that we don't know about!!

Ohh!! You are talking about these panels.



My favorite panel of zoro in onigashima raid so far is, him attacking King with Shishi sonson, oda's art is keep getting better and better:)

That's not a theory, kozaburo himself said "I named the Blade after Lord of the under world", and enma is the king/lord of the underworld in Thailand and Indonesia mythology. So it's just an oda thing.

I think oda is going make luffy vs kaido battle much much better than any other fight because you know oda love luffy the most.
btw wano climax is going to be more crazier than we think!!

Edit:- Kozaburo looks like wado ichimonji(oda draws in SBS, how zoros swords look like if they were alive)

One of the best chapters in a while.

King being practically confirmed as Lunarian - even being described as a God.

Of course I can't leave out the Zoro backstory. Crazy that the man who made Kuina's sword was also the maker of Enma.
I was just thinking about Kuina the other day too lol.

Am I wrong or was there more Zoro backstory in this one chapter than there has been in the entire series? Haha, but seriously, what a great chapter!

I've always loved the idea in the One Piece universe that swords can carry personality and can choose their owners and also can grow in quality (maybe ties into the devils fruit concept). With all these revelations about conquerors haki I wouldn't be surprised if that's what Enma craves since Zoro was able to harness its power without being drained at the end there, which also caused weaker soldiers to pass out.

depends on what you consider "proper". we got one in c5 and that was only a small part of the chapter and that's pretty much it.

zoro and usopp deserve another flashback (especially after sanji got his second one).

I just want to mention that this is the second time "Shishi Sonson" doesn´t oneshot an enemy (the panel was great btw). So, now that Zoro awakened his conqueror´s haki, I wonder if Sanji will do the same, considering he would probably face a Yonko alongside Luffy and Zoro at some point.

His oldest friend is Kuina, not Luffy or Sanji.

I had Kuina in mind when the first spoiler dropped, but then the leaker said Zoro was referring to the same person, Luffy. Reading the scans confirmed it for myself since there was no flashback panel of Kuina either. Oda is usually not that ambiguous.

Haven't read the official scans yet. Did Zoro say promises (plural would speak for Kuina) and best friend after captain? Was there a pause(...) after captain?

Btw, what do you think of Haoshoku for King?
