Furthermore, this mindset has led to the speculation regarding the events occurring in Onigashima, particularly: “In the battle at Onigashima, Zoro’s sword emitted a flash of light. Does he possess the essence of a king?”
This raises interesting theories about Zoro potentially wielding all three types of Haki. At the same time, it hints that he will unlock this powerful secret in the future. Currently, one thing is certain: Roronoa Zoro does not possess Conqueror’s Haki.
However, if that is the case, how could he possibly unleash it in Onigashima? The most plausible explanation is that the Haki belongs to Enma, rather than Zoro himself. It could be that a part of Oden’s Haki still resides within the sword and is released through Zoro’s determination during his confrontation with King.
Eiichiro Oda has hinted at Zoro possessing Conqueror’s Haki while simultaneously providing subtle clues about the depth of this potential. It is possible that Zoro may not yet have it, but will unlock it at a crucial moment later in the story.
One Piece is currently in the final stages of the Egghead arc. Following this, the manga will begin the long-awaited Elbaf arc, which is expected to be one of the most significant arcs involving a member of the Straw Hat crew.
Will Zoro be one of the key figures, ultimately unlocking his true potential as the right-hand man of the future Pirate King?
