The battles of One Piece have taken a new turn with the Egghead Island arc, as new villains in the form of the Five Elders are currently trying to stop the Straw Hat Pirates from leaving the island. While most of them are being held by Luffy and his Giant friends, others are engaged in combat with the rest of the crew.
As the clashes go on, a new upcoming fight has been hinted at by the spoilers of Chapter 1117, which is scheduled to be released on June 17, 2024. This fight is probably the most anticipated fight of the Egghead Island arc, as it features the swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates, Roronoa Zoro, and the swordsman of the Five Elders, Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro.
Fans have been waiting for a long time for Eiichiro Oda to draw the anticipated fight, as it will easily put Zoro’s previous epic battle with King of the Beast Pirates to shame. Both Zoro and V. Nusjuro are considered two of the strongest swordsmen in One Piece, and their epic battle will reveal who is better.
One Piece Spoilers Hint Zoro Vs. V. Nusjuro
One Piece Chapter 1117 is one of the most anticipated chapters for a lot of reasons. The first and foremost is the continuation of Vegapunk’s message, as he is revealing the secrets of the world. Secondly, the Iron Giant has finally decided to take center stage as he is moving towards the battle, which makes the One Piece arc even more exciting.
However, the spoilers have brought a huge twist to the narrative of Eiichiro Oda’s masterpiece. These brief spoilers were recently shared by @pewpiece on X, and although they did not reveal much about Luffy’s fight, they did focus on the interaction between V. Nusjuro and Zoro, which instantly turned into a fight.
According to the spoilers, as soon as the fight between Zoro and the Elder started, V. Nusjuro recognized Zoro’s Kitetsu blade, also called the Sandai Kitetsu. This sword has been with Zoro before the time skip, and it is believed to be a cursed blade. V. Nusjuro recognizing Sandai Kitetsu adds another layer of mystery to Zoro’s swords.
Zoro Vs. V. Nusjuro Could Be Zoro’s Biggest Fight
Since the arrival of the Five Elders on Egghead Island, fans have demanded a battle between the two swordsmen from each side. There have also been many theories developed about how the battle is going to affect the upcoming narrative of the characters and the One Piece storyline, which is in its final stage.
Considering the strength and importance of the characters in the One Piece story, V. Nusjuro vs. Zoro could potentially be one of the biggest fights in the history of the series. Zoro has grown a lot in terms of strength and skill. The character has recently learned to use Advanced Conqueror’s Haki, which makes him more dangerous than ever.
However, the powers of one of the Five Elders cannot be underestimated. Also, it is believed that V. Nusjuro had ties with Wano, which makes him a bigger threat as a swordsman. If, by some miracle, Zoro wins the fight against V. Nusjuro in One Piece, he could potentially turn his swords into a black blade, which would take him to the level of Dracule Mihawk and Ryuma.
