Roronoa Zoro uses various swords throughout One Piece, including Wado Ichimonji, Sandai Kitetsu, Shusui, and previously Yubashiri and others. These swords vary in appearance, grade, and origin, but are all skillfully wielded by Zoro in his Santoryu three-sword style. Some swords like Yubashiri are replaced when destroyed, while others like Wado Ichimonji and Shusui are national treasures that demonstrate Zoro's growing strength and skill as a swordsman.
