As a 24-year-old female college student, I am excited to share with you the thrilling revelations from One Piece 1087. In this chapter, Eiichiro Oda surprises fans once again by unveiling the secret behind Zoro’s origin. It turns out that Zoro is a clone of the legendary samurai Ryuma, created by the brilliant scientist Dr. Vegapunk.
Throughout the thousands of chapters in the One Piece manga, Oda sensei has kept Zoro’s true identity hidden, only to finally reveal the shocking truth. Inspired by the samurai Ryuma from the Land of Wano in the New World, who had been turned into a General Zombie by Hogback, Dr. Vegapunk created Zoro as a clone. Clues given by Oda sensei indicate that Ryuma is the same character from Oda’s previous one-shot manga, Monsters. During the Thriller Bark arc, Zoro used Brook’s shadow to become a zombie.
But that’s not all. In One Piece 1087, Eiichiro Oda unveils an alliance between Monkey D Dragon and Dracule Mihawk, and it turns out that training Zoro was part of their agreement. This revelation sheds light on the fact that Zoro is a result of Dr. Vegapunk’s experimentation with Lineage Factor, which ultimately turned him into Ryuma.
So, how did Dr. Vegapunk manage to clone Ryuma’s DNA and possess it in Zoro? Let me share the spoilers for One Piece 1087 that Teras our site has compiled for fans:
In this chapter, Zoro will play a crucial role in the battle on Egghead Island. However, theories about Zoro’s extraordinary power have started to emerge. One interesting theory suggests that Zoro is a clone of the Wano country’s legendary swordsman, Shimotsuki Ryuma. What sets Zoro apart is that Dr. Vegapunk conducted genetic modifications on him, similar to what was done with Sanji. The difference is that Dr. Vegapunk, who is known to have a close relationship with Gecko Moria, managed to steal Ryuma’s corpse, the God of Swords and one of Wano’s greatest swordsmen in history. From there, Dr. Vegapunk extracted Ryuma’s DNA and injected it into young Zoro. This action seems to have been done with the permission of Zoro’s father, Roronoa Arashi. This explains why Zoro bears a striking resemblance to Ryuma, from his sword skills to his appearance. Not only do they look similar, but Zoro also eventually possesses the same level of power as the original Ryuma.
It is important to note that in a previous SBS column, Oda sensei clarified that Ryuma is not Zoro’s father. These facts indicate that the similarities between Zoro and Ryuma can only be attributed to the genetic modification with Lineage Factor. However, due to being one of Dr. Vegapunk’s early experiments with Lineage Factor, Zoro suffered a side effect – he became directionally challenged or “lost his sense of direction.” This is why Dr. Vegapunk considered Zoro a failed experiment solely based on this aspect.
In conclusion, One Piece 1087 reveals the mind-blowing truth about Zoro’s cloning and his connection to the legendary Ryuma. Eiichiro Oda continues to surprise and captivate fans with his masterful storytelling. Stay tuned for more exciting updates in the world of One Piece!
