One Piecefans are waiting for a couple of battles that will change the entire course of the story. These battles will likely take place during the final arc, and when they do, they will be some of the biggest fights in the history of anime. Among these fights, the one that fans are waiting for the most is the Zoro vs. Mihawk rematch.
Since the beginning, Zoro has been motivated by a single ambition, which is to become the strongest swordsman in the world. For this, he has to defeat the current strongest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk. The two have fought once during the Baratie arc, and Zoro was easily defeated by Mihawk.
Ever since then, he has been training vigorously and waiting for a rematch that will once again give him a chance to finally achieve the title. While Zoro and theOne Piecefans waited, Eiichiro Oda and Toei decided to show a glimpse of what Zoro and Mihawk’s rematch would look like by making him fight the Seraphim S-Hawk.
One PieceAnime Shows a Glimpse of the Zoro vs. Mihawk Rematch
The events of the Egghead Island arc have taken a turn since the Seraphims entered the storyline. They were ordered by Lucci and Kaku to destroy Dr. Vegapunk’s laboratory. However, Vegapunk’s satellites tried to override the command given by the CP0 agents, but before they could do that, S-Hawk attacked them using his sword.

Before the attack could hit Lilith and Edison (Vegapunk’s satellites, Zoro reached the spot and stopped the strike. He then engaged in a battle with S-Hawk to test whether he was as powerful as Mihawk or just a simple clone. As Zoro fought the Seraphim, he realized that Mihawk was a bigger monster compared to S-Hawk and indirectly trolled his biggest rival.
He easily handled the fight and gave satellites the time to impose a new command on the Seraphims. While the fight was short, it offered a glimpse of what the final rematchbetween Zoro and Mihawkwould look like. Zoro has come a long way, and this time he might actually win and take away the title of the strongest swordman in theOne Pieceworld.
One PieceFans Are Once Again Impressed With Zoro
The swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates is known for his tough guy attitude, and he has proven multiple times that he is not someone to be meddled with. But his fight with S-Hawk took him to the next level, as he was able to single-handedly tackle the Seraphim that stopped the Blackbeard Pirates.
This in itself is a big feat, and it was recently celebrated by the official English page of theOne Pieceanime on X(Formerly Twitter).
