Zoro's Sword: Wano National Treasure - Black Blade Shuusui

Shuusui, known as the Black Blade, is not just an ordinary sword. For Roronoa Zoro, the swordsman in One Piece, it symbolizes resilience, determination, and indomitable spirit. As one of the 21 Great Grade Swords, it holds a legendary status.

Formerly wielded by the legendary swordsman Ryuma, a renowned swordsman of Wano Country, it was also revered as a national treasure of Wano. After a fierce battle with Zoro, Ryuma's spirit acknowledged him, passing down Shuusui as a legacy. During Zoro's adventures in Wano, he returned Shuusui to its homeland as a gesture of respect.

The Legend of Shuusui

Shuusui's legacy as the sword that slew Ryuma adds to its legendary status. Not only is it a reward for Zoro's victory over Ryuma, but it also symbolizes his lineage, as Ryuma is revealed to be a distant ancestor of Zoro. Through numerous battles and tough times, Shuusui has been Zoro's loyal companion, proving its strength and trustworthiness along the way.

Exchange of Blades

In Wano, Zoro engaged in a sword exchange with Tenguyama Hitetsu, who wielded another renowned sword called Enma. This exchange marked a significant moment, as Shuusui, a national treasure of Wano, was traded for another respected sword. It showcased Zoro's respect for Wano's traditions and artifacts.
