Roronoa Zoro

Roronoa Zoro

His full name is Roronoa Zoro, his favorite food is white rice, sea monster meat, and sake. He was born on November 11th in Shimotsuki Village, East Blue. The animal he most resembles is a shark, which is represented by the color green and his smell is like steel. He is 19 years old, 1.81 m tall, and he often yawns. He was the first member to join Luffy as a crew member, becoming the crew's fighter as he is one of the three strongest fighters in the crew, seen as Luffy's right-hand man.

History

When Zoro was an 11-year-old boy, he trained in a dojo, where the only person he couldn't defeat was Kuina, a 14-year-old girl and daughter of Koshiro, the master of the dojo. He and Kuina made a promise to each other that one of them would become the greatest swordsman in the world. Sadly, Kuina passed away the next day. After that, Zoro begged Koshiro to give him Kuina's sword so he could become the greatest swordsman for himself and for her. His master agreed, and from that moment on, Zoro began training to learn how to use the Santōryū (three-sword style). After years of training, Zoro sets out for the East Blue Sea to fulfill his dreams. Over time, he becomes a famous bounty hunter (before joining the crew). Zoro was taken prisoner by Helmeppo in Shells Town, due to beating his wolf when the pet was causing trouble in the village. He was later saved by Moneky D. Luffy, and joined him as the first member of his crew.

Swords

Zoro is an expert swordsman; able to use 1, 2, 3, and 9 sword styles in a wide variety of attack styles, although he is most talented in long combat in the Santōryū (3 sword style). Although it has often been seen that his most powerful attack is performed with a single sword, reserving the 2 sword style for certain special attacks. Zoro always uses Kuina's sword by placing it in his mouth, which can be somewhat dangerous. Aside from his excellent swordsmanship, Zoro possesses tremendous strength (being able to lift and throw a building), due to the intense training he underwent and which continues during the trip. Zoro has also shown to be a great hand-to-hand fighter, and is fully capable of using his hands to fight, that and combined with his superhuman strength, on some occasions Zoro has shown this ability when he doesn't have his swords, Zoro only shows his hand-to-hand fighting ability when he doesn't have his swords.

Personality

Zoro, also known as "the Pirate Hunter", is an expert swordsman in the Santōryū (three-sword style). He uses three swords, one in each hand and one in his mouth. He is brave, strong and always keeps his word, although he is also quite temperamental. His dream is to become the best swordsman in the world. He is reserved in nature, although he often acts in a comical manner. He also has a poor sense of direction, to the point of getting lost even on straight paths or when someone is guiding him. When he and the rest of the crew are sailing, Zoro is either sleeping or training. He has a strong sense of reason that makes him the backbone of the crew when things get serious or critical. Whether he agrees or not, he will always back up his captain Luffy's decisions, speaking up only to weigh in when others fail to see the full implications of the situation. His only apparent job aboard the Going Merry is to use his enormous strength to raise the anchor, though he has been seen serving as a lookout. Zoro can also be very vigorous and will not back down when he is determined to achieve a goal or defeat an enemy. When Zoro intends to fight seriously, he will usually put his dark green bandana (which he usually has tied over his left arm) on his forehead. During the voyage, Zoro initially made it clear to Luffy that he was simply joining him to fulfill his dream, however, slowly, he has begun to change his way of thinking, even going so far as to say that "Luffy must be the man who becomes the Pirate King", which could be interpreted as an added goal for himself. Throughout the series, he has shown to be the most loyal to Luffy, even calling him "Pirate King". On one occasion, Zoro almost gave up his dream in an attempt to convince an enemy not to kill Luffy and his crew, thus proving his loyalty.

Appearance

Zoro usually wears a white shirt, dark green pants, although they are so dark that only the green silhouette can be seen, boots of the same color and wears a haramaki (sash), traditional samurai armor, although his is not of the original design: he usually uses it only to hold his swords. He wears a dark green bandana (like his pants and boots), which he wears tied on his left arm, and when he fights he ties it over his head turning into a more demonic image, thanks to which many pirates and bounty hunters feared him and believed he was a real demon. Like Luffy, he usually changes his outfit in some situation or place that requires it. He is the fourth tallest of the crew, measuring specifically 1'81cm. He has a very serious look and wears three golden earrings in his left ear. His hair is green, which has caused Sanji to call him "Marimo" (a round, green seaweed). This last has generated various and very funny situations in which even he has been confused. He has a scar on his chest made by Mihawk in his duel against him (In which he said the phrase I will let you live). He also has two scars on his legs from when Nami, Vivi and he were captured by Mr. 3 in Little Garden, and he tried to cut them with his katana.

Behavior with peers

Zoro, like Nami, is sometimes angered by Luffy's clueless leadership, but Zoro trusts him completely as Luffy is very brave, always loyal to his captain. He likes to compete and argue with Sanji even in the most inappropriate or unimportant of times, however, when the two work together against a common enemy, they are extremely strong and even nearly unstoppable, and in various battles they have come to show a mutual respect for each other as partners. Usopp and Tony Tony Chopper are always impressed by his monstrous strength and bad boy attitude. Due to his simple and straightforward nature, Zoro is often exploited by Nami, particularly in financial matters. At first, he did not trust Nami, and often suspected that she would be capable of "betraying" the crew again, but gradually grew out of that thought. At first, he distrusts Robin, but over time he accepts her and is willing to protect her.
