Chapter 347 Holy Sword
In One Piece, after Zoro visited the tomb of his childhood friend Kuina, he bid farewell to the master of the dojo and his mentor Koshiro alone and set off on a journey to a land called the world, in order to realize his dream of becoming the greatest swordsman in the world and to fulfill the oath they had made to each other for the unfortunately deceased Kuina.
In addition to Kuina, there is another person who had a life-and-death relationship with Zoro and almost became a world-destroying demon god!
The Seven-Star Sword possessed the demon god. When he was young, he met and knew Zoro. Zoro has always been very principled, tenacious, and determined. He will do what he says. Before he met the holy sword, Saka had a similar temperament to Zoro, generous and elegant.
Everything originated from the legend of the holy sword "Seven Star Sword" and Saka's unexpected encounter. Unlike Zoro's goal of becoming the world's greatest swordsman, Saka's dream is to become a powerful navy and wipe out the evil in the world. His idea is very similar to Coby's idea of becoming a navy admiral.
Together with Zoro, who was famous in the East China Sea, he hunted pirates until an unexpected risk separated the two of them, which also changed Saka's life.
Saka drifted to the island of Aska and met the beautiful priestess Maya. On the night of the red moon, Aska was attacked by pirates. In order to protect Maya, Saka accidentally touched the legendary cursed holy sword "Seven Star Sword" during his escape. The evil spirit of this sword is stronger than the three generations of Kitetsu in Zoro's hand. Legend has it that the three ancient kings launched a war for the throne and absorbed countless resentments and blood in the world.
A priestess who was loved by the three kings sacrificed herself to pray for the power of the three gems to seal the "Seven Star Sword", but after the red moon appeared on the night, it was accidentally obtained by Saka.
Beautiful witch Maya
Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at Aska Island with the Merry. At this time, Saka is the naval coach on the island. Compared with the generous and magnanimous Saka many years ago, Saka's mind is now controlled by the dark power of the strongest holy sword "Seven Star Sword". Not only does his eyes become red, but his emotions are also being deprived step by step.
Zoro was used by Saka, who tricked Zoro into coming with the blade that he and young Zoro had agreed upon.
He asked Zoro to take the three gems that originally sealed the Seven Star Sword and throw them into an unknown deep well. At this time, Saka had the memory of his childhood, but his will was owned by the Seven Star Sword.
The Seven-Star Sword attempts to completely control Saka on the night of the red moon. After removing the suppression of the three gems, darkness will be spread all over the earth again, and Saka will become a world-destroying demon god.
Saka + Seven Star Sword under the Red Moon
Zoro was completely used in the movie. He led the navy subordinates controlled by Saka's "Seven Star Sword" to seize the gems of innocent villagers. He also confronted Sanji head-on and cut Sanji's left arm. Luffy and Usopp were not there at this time.
The two lost bosses accidentally ran into Saka who possessed the "Seven Star Sword". Luffy was knocked off the cliff by the "Demon Fire Slash" of the Seven Star Sword, and accidentally picked up the three gems discarded by Zoro in the underground adventure cave.
From the perspective of the plot, it is full of routines. Luffy picked up the gem and returned it to Maya. Then the protagonist's halo was fully turned on. Luffy fought Saka controlled by the cursed holy sword "Seven Star Sword" in the first gear mode.
After noticing something was wrong, Zoro was hacked to a near-death state by Saka, and Luffy was also beaten to a standstill by Saka, the world-destroying demon god possessed by the strongest holy sword, the Seven Star Sword.
In order to solve the problem of Saka + the strongest holy sword being too strong, the movie version weakens it through strong restrictions in the setting. Maya can reduce the dark power of the Seven Star Sword through three gems + prayer.
It was precisely by taking advantage of the suppression of the power of prayer that Zoro in Halo Mode stood up again and killed Saka, the world-destroying demon god who was one with man and sword, in one move.
This is also a common problem in the combat power setting of theatrical animations. The story is only average, and it ends with the Straw Hat Pirates using force to protect justice. The villains are too powerful, and can only be restricted by the setting of the Hand of God. I think 50 points for the combat power setting may be too high.
Luffy and his crew came to Askah Island while escaping because of the pursuit of the navy. Nami heard that there was a Seven-Star Sword on the island and always wanted to see the beauty of the Seven-Star Sword with her own eyes. Unexpectedly, Zoro, who was watching the ship, disappeared after seeing a knife shot at him with his name engraved on it.
While searching for Zoro, the Straw Hat Pirates met Maya, a girl holding three gems. They learned that there was an unknown legend behind the legendary Seven Star Sword. The Seven Star Sword is a sealed demon sword that will appear under the red full moon and bring killing and destruction.
The Seven-Star Sword had been sealed by the villagers of Aska Island, but was obtained by Saka during a war. As the Seven-Star Sword had a powerful magical power, Saka lost his mind and was controlled by the magical sword. Saka gave up his dream of pursuing the Sword of Justice and attempted to control the navy and dominate the world.
Saka once saved Zoro's life, and he used Zoro to get the three orbs that sealed the Seven Star Sword for him. He attempted to merge with the Seven Star Sword during the red full moon and gain all the power of the Seven Star Sword. But the Straw Hat Boys came to this island, how could this happen?
Saka knocked Luffy off the cliff, and Usopp followed him down. Although Usopp is usually timid, he is also loyal. Luffy and Usopp accidentally entered a magical cave. Luffy had a lot of fun in it, and Usopp screamed the whole time.
Zoro has already realized that something is wrong. When he duels with Duma at the Marine Dojo, he realizes that Saka has changed and is no longer the Saka who once pursued the Sword of Justice. Duma has also been controlled by Saka.
Saka also confessed the matter, and Zoro was also very angry when he knew what Saka had done. The two of them started to duel, and after more than ten rounds, there was no winner, but Saka used the power of the Seven Star Sword, and Zoro could not resist and was knocked down.
The red full moon is about to come, and Luffy and others are busy helping Maya open the seal.
The seal was interrupted by Saka before it was completed, so Luffy had no choice but to fight Saka in hand-to-hand combat. At that time, Luffy's strength was not very strong, and Saka became stronger and stronger with the help of the power of the Seven Star Sword. In the end, the seal was completely broken, and Saka was close to going berserk. When Luffy was ready to fight with all his strength, Zoro arrived. Although he was injured, Zoro was still strong. Zoro told Luffy that he would put an end to Saka's affairs. Zoro flew into the sky, cut through the red full moon with a sword, and Saka fell down. The Seven Star Sword was broken, and everything was over. Saka also turned back to his previous appearance.
Luffy and his crew continued sailing on the Sunshine Merry, and Zoro continued to move towards becoming the world's greatest swordsman. Saka stayed on the island to accompany Maya and continue to pursue the sword of justice. Saka and Zoro learned swordsmanship together in the kendo field when they were young. In the past, Saka became disabled for life in order to save Zoro. So Saka is Zoro's savior. They both have their own dreams, and they have been persisting and working hard. I believe Luffy can become the Pirate King.
