When it comes to the powerful swordsmen that exist in the world of One Piece, Roronoa Zoro often comes to mind. This is because Zoro is the most important swordsman in One Piece<\/strong><\/em>, given that he is a member of the Straw Hat Pirates and the first individual to join Luffy’s crew. Zoro’s skill with swordsmanship has grown remarkably over the years, and it goes without saying that he’s already one of the strongest swordsmen in the story.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Now that One Piece<\/em> is in the Final Saga, it doesn’t come as a surprise to any fan to know that Zoro is an absolute monster at this point in time when it comes to swordplay. However, he is far from being the strongest swordsman in the world. In fact, One Piece recently officially confirmed an even stronger swordsman to the fans, in Dorry of the Giant Pirates, and his superiority over Zoro has officially been confirmed by the author himself.<\/p>\n

In the Final Saga of One Piece, Zoro is easily one of the strongest characters. He is known to wield the incredible Three-Sword Style, and given that he has mastery over all types of Haki, Zoro can put out immense amounts of power. He has beaten some very skilled individuals over the years, including the likes of King, one of Kaido’s three right-hand men. But despite that, Zoro is still not at the pinnacle of strength or swordsmanship. There are many swordsmen that exist in the world of One Piece that are above Zoro’s level<\/strong>. Elbaf has officially introduced yet another one of them, and this time, it is none other than Dorry, the Co-captain of the Giant Pirates.<\/p>\n

Dorry was first introduced to the fans in the Little Garden arc of One Piece<\/em>, and back then, he did not seem all that strong. In fact, his bounty was revealed to be only 100 million berries. But when adjusted to inflation, it has now been revealed that his bounty is 1.8 billion berries, which automatically puts him above Zoro’s level. But, what gives Dorry even more strength is the fact that he has been Domi Reversi’d by Imu, which grants immortality, regeneration, and a superhuman power buff on top. All these things taken into consideration, Dorry is quite clearly the stronger swordsman of the two<\/strong>, and what solidified this are Zoro’s own words in One Piece Chapter 1173.<\/p>\n

When the New Giant Warrior Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates launched their counter-attack against Imu’s army, Zoro officially asked for permission to cut down the Giants. Upon being granted the permission, Zoro quickly went from one giant to another, slicing them down with his immensely powerful swordsmanship. However, immediately after Dorry and Brogy jumped to the scene and decided to attack Zoro together, the latter was completely shocked by their strength, and instead of taking them head-on, Zoro decided to get out of harm’s way.<\/p>\n

In the official Japanese translation, Zoro clearly states that he cannot take them down<\/strong>, but in the English version, it was simply painted as if Zoro wanted to get out of the way. The nuance wasn’t carried over to the English version, unfortunately, and that is huge. Zoro essentially stated that he was not strong enough to take them on and that is why he escaped from their path. This also inadvertently confirms that Zoro is a weaker swordsman than Dorry right now. Despite Zoro having the power to channel Conqueror’s Haki with Enma, he has not yet mastered his powers to the fullest.<\/p>\n

Even if something takes down an ordinary man, I must stand strong. I can’t fall until I surpass that guy! \u2014 Roronoa Zoro<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n
