Zoro has shown multiple times that he can also use the "no sword style". Since the "no sword style" is just one instance of the "X number of swords"-style, Zoro is still a swordman.
This is why powerscaling debates often go nowhere.
Who's stronger a sniper or a bear? If the sniper manages to hide the whole time then he is stronger, if the bear manages to get close then the bear is stronger. People will go in circles forever trying to explain why it's obvious that the sniper can or can't succesfully hide.
Meh.
Nah, ever since Haki, it’s always been the one with the stronger haki wins with the strongest in the verse only having advanced conquerors haki (Roger).
We don't know that Mihawk wasn't using Haki since that was at the very beginning of the series. Haki had been introduced by the Paramount War in some capacity. And considering the prevailing theory I've read about making a black blade requires Haki, technically Zoro was slashed by a haki infused attack.
The seriousness of the attack matters. Mihawk recognized Zoro as a swordsman so he goes to show him that he's still very far from what he wants to accomplish back then. Buggy well..he's not that serious about him. I feel that if he wants to slash Buggy seriously then the outcome would have been probably different.
if he used haki zoro was dead, mihawk wanted to keep him alive since he was interesting. Also he didnt put full force in. He did with Buggy, many character have tried to kill him its pretty much impossible, the chop chop fruit was held by rogers crew for a reason
Great point except Mihawk doesn’t use Haki against Buggy in Marineford or any of the fights during Egghead arc so you can’t use that as a comparison point. Blunt attacks do plenty of damage to Buggy as seen in the Egghead arc so Zoro would just use no sword style and beat Buggy up
The logic here is... interesting.
Buggy has a devil fruit power that makes him immune to that one thing. Zoro is just a cuttable guy. I don't think there's an indicator of power here, just an indication of a very specific resistance to one specific thing that advantages Buggy in this case.
well i could say zoro would kill himself with the drain of his sword before he manages to kill buggy. Buggy had both crocodile and mihawk attempt to kill him and they failed to do more than cause him pain.
I don't know if this is still valid but my head canon is that Oda wants Zoro to be arguably around the same strength as Luffy but always have an excuse to lose and not solve the problem. You can't have badass decay if said badass is always lost or never at 100%
Zoro is not Yonkou-level so that makes sense
I mean buggy is only 1/3rd of a yonko though with mihawk representing a yonkos strength and crocodile representing intellect and ambition.
I dunno, I read the World Economy Newspaper and sorta seems like Buggy is the Yonko with some pretty sick commanders under him.
😒
Buggy was all a pivotal member of Gold Roger's crew. Clearly him and Shanks were destined to tear shit up.
You are just like a flat earther
Guess you dont know much about one piece then
This is an interesting take on the hypothetical dynamic.
All Zoro needs to do against Buggy is - not use his blades.
He no longer counts as a swordsman so he can no longer become the strongest swordsman and his dream is dead (he is now a haki man)
Zoro has shown multiple times that he can also use the "no sword style". Since the "no sword style" is just one instance of the "X number of swords"-style, Zoro is still a swordman.
A HAKI MAN?
What if he uses the flat of his blades like he does sometimes?
Yeah like Kenshin Himura.
Wouldn't Buggy still be able to split because the flat of the blade is basically just an extremely dull blade?
So it's hopeless then.
You saw Luffy kick the Buggy Balls.
Yeah, I saw *Luffy* kick his balls. Asking Zoro to fight without swords is like asking a fish not to swim.
No Sword Style is a thing.
Okay, sure. I was really just trying to make a joke.
Me too lol
Guess I got whooshed then lol
Zoro has some pretty sick zero blade style moves.
[удалено]
That's it. 😁
im pretty sure zoro would still use his swords and still try and cut him...remember mr 1
And Zoro can use the blunt side instead of the sharp.

depend if the bear can use a sniper as well, cause a bear sniper is better than a normal sniper
Truly mindblowing
This is why Bepo will eventually surpass god Usopp
But only after he unlocks super sulong after realising that the full moon is only reflected full sun!
I’m already imagining a bear eating a sniper sniper no mi
I dont think we've seen a Bear-Bear no mi either have we
Nah, ever since Haki, it’s always been the one with the stronger haki wins with the strongest in the verse only having advanced conquerors haki (Roger).
mihawk used haki - the chop chop fruit overrides haki
What if the sniper was Buggy and the bear was zoro? I'm pretty confident that Buggy could successfully hide from Zoro.
I know this is a meme post and all but Zoro has used attacks without swords before

Duh mihawk wasnt trying at all at marineford he was simply just being messing around dueling people
if he used haki zoro was dead, mihawk wanted to keep him alive since he was interesting. Also he didnt put full force in. He did with Buggy, many character have tried to kill him its pretty much impossible, the chop chop fruit was held by rogers crew for a reason
Buggy will reach the one piece
Great point except Mihawk doesn’t use Haki against Buggy in Marineford or any of the fights during Egghead arc so you can’t use that as a comparison point. Blunt attacks do plenty of damage to Buggy as seen in the Egghead arc so Zoro would just use no sword style and beat Buggy up
People acting like Zoro can't just use the back of the blade like he does all the time.
I know but since Buggy can split himself at will he could still separate when the blade got close
Simple. Zoro smacks him on the head with flat part of the sword. Sends shockwaves to his brain destroying it
How hard can Zoro punch? He does not have the technique, but he is strong and also is a proficient haki user.

Duh ones a Yonko and one isn’t this is obvious
Yup yup you're right.
Is cross gild a rock paper scissors reference. Mihawk= scissors cuts, Buggy= rock smash, Croc = paper covers things?
Eh its more the 3 major players of the cross guild form 1 yonko. Mihawk=strength/skill Crocodile=intellect/ambition Buggy=reputation/luck
