In Amigasa Village, Momonosuke and the present members of the Nine Red Scabbards besides Kawamatsu are overjoyed to hear that Hiyori is alive.
Hitetsu then says that his preparations are complete, and Kikunojo gives him back Nidai Kitetsu which she obtained from Luffy in Udon. He then presents Oden’s two blades, Enma and Ame no Habakiri.
Momonosuke says he is not yet ready to wield Ame no Habakiri, but Zoro takes Enma.
Enma is a sword that is able to draw the user’s Ryuo/Busoshoku Haki, which tremendously enhances the cutting power of the sword far more than the intention of the wielder. Hitetsu warns Zoro that only Oden has been able to tame the Meito, and tells him to try cutting down a nearby tree. Zoro swings Enma and ends up slicing off the entire cliff face, and his crewmates quickly become worried as the sword draws significant quantities of Busoshoku Haki from his arm.
However, Zoro manages to bring the Haki back into his arm.
Hitetsu commends him on taming the blade, saying an ordinary swordsman would instantly lose all their energy due to Enma forcing the user to use massive amounts of Busoshoku Haki. He asks Zoro if he wishes to keep the blade, which Zoro affirms. So Zoro has officially accepted Enma as a replacement for Shusui.
Then more information on Enma, Sandai Kitetsu, and Wado Ichimonji are revealed by Hitetsu. Hitetsu in fact revealed that he created Sandai Kitetsu and Ame no Habakiri. He then said that Zoro is getting used to Enma quickly because it was made by the same swordsmith as Wado Ichimonji. That swordsmith was named Shimotsuki Kozaburo, who left Wano illegally over 50 years ago. Hitetsu is confident that in Zoro’s possession, Enma will finally become a Black Blade. And once it becomes the Black Blade, it will be on the same level as the Twelve Saijo O Wazamono.
