This Devil Fruit That Would Suit Roronoa Zoro to Eat in One Piece

In Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece universe, Roronoa Zoro is known as one of the strongest characters who relies on raw physical strength, extraordinary sword techniques, and deep mastery of Haki. As Monkey D. Luffy’s right-hand man, Zoro adheres to the principle as a swordsman who does not rely on the supernatural powers of a Devil Fruit. However, speculation about “what if Zoro ate a Devil Fruit?” has long been a hot topic among fans.

Interestingly, Eiichiro Oda himself has provided an official answer through the SBS (Shitsumon o Boshu Suru) column regarding which power would be most suitable for the pirate hunter. This article will review in depth the potential hidden powers and their impact on Zoro’s Santoryu fighting style.

Many fans suppose Zoro would be given a fruit related to sharpness or speed. However, in SBS Volume 98, Oda stated that if Zoro were to have Devil Fruit powers, the best fit would be Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu. This is a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit owned by Kaido.

There is, however, an interesting note from Oda. It is not Zoro who would consume the fruit, but one of his swords. Oda imagines Zoro’s swords transforming into a dragon, which aesthetically and in power would amplify the destructive power of Zoro’s strikes many times over. Imagine Zoro’s Tatsu Maki (Dragon Twister) technique unleashing a real dragon.

Before Oda’s confirmation, fans’ strongest candidate for Zoro’s Devil Fruit was the Supa Supa no Mi. This fruit is currently owned by Daz Bonez (Mr. 1), the opponent Zoro defeated in Alabasta. This power allows the user to turn all body parts into blades as hard as steel.

Thematically, this fruit fits Zoro very well. With the Supa Supa no Mi, Zoro would not only wield swords; his body itself would be a weapon. This would remove Zoro’s weakness when fighting without a sword (Mutoryu) and provide absolute defence against normal physical attacks.

Another option briefly mentioned is the Shari Shari no Mi belonging to Sharinguru. This fruit lets body parts turn into rapidly spinning wheels. Although it sounds silly, in the hands of a combat strategist like Zoro, this rotation could be applied to his sword techniques to create far more destructive stabbing and cutting power, akin to the principle of a chainsaw.

While the above theories are very intriguing, there is a strong reason why Zoro remains a character without a Devil Fruit to the end of the story:

If we refer to the highest authority, Eiichiro Oda, the Uo Uo no Mi Model: Seiryu granted to Zoro’s sword would be the best choice for Roronoa Zoro. This would increase power without removing Zoro’s ability to swim in the sea.

However, for loyal fans, the image of Zoro fighting only with three swords and with the unwavering resolve remains the best version of the future World’s Strongest Swordsman. (Z-4)

Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika is the legendary Devil Fruit that allows its user to transform into the figure of the “Warrior of Liberation” or the Sun God Nika.

Loki is not an ordinary giant. He is introduced as a figure who has dark ambitions, even willing to kill his own father, King Harald, to obtain the legendary Devil Fruit.

As the story progresses, Luffy’s enemies no longer rely solely on physical power. Mastery of Haoshoku Haki (Conqueror’s Haki) and creativity in using Gear 5

The first enemy to directly block Luffy before entering the Grand Line is Captain Smoker, portrayed by Callum Kerr.

This historic moment occurred aboard the Thousand Sunny after the Wano arc completed. At that time, the Straw Hat crew were discussing the latest news in the newspaper.

Loki’s presence is not merely a storytelling accessory. He is the key that connects Elbaf’s history with global conflict.

Roronoa Zoro has transformed from a mere pirate hunter into one of the most feared swordsmen in the world.

Zoro can indeed coat his swords with Haoshoku Haki, but he has not yet been able to make his swords (like Wado Ichimonji or Enma) permanently black.
