Animanga Zoro Meeting Opla Zoro Would Be So Funny Bc Opla Zoro Would Be Like “so Have You And Luffy….”

*Nami and Usopp got scared.*

Zoro's only priority: LUFFY. Save. Luffy.

Also,

The way he doesn't want to let go of Luffy. He just gently place it on Luffy's shoulder...

He's so gentle...

Watching Luffy scream his voice hoarse as Zoro gets eaten by that flower thing in the Baron Omatsuri movie was my ZoLu Roman Empire.

And then canon events duplicated that desperate scream with Kizaru v. Zoro at Sabaody.

Honestly, both events were traumatizing, but bless your ZoLu biases, Oda-sensei.

Also, I just LOVE that while Zoro is the crew’s strong, fierce protector, Luffy is also SO PROTECTIVE OF ZORO! We need more protective Luffy fics where he saves/spoils Zoro. Get to work, writers!!!

Did someone ask for a drawing

Someone draw this please.

Zoro and Luffy have always been my favorite characters. When I first started One Piece, I didn't ship any of the Strawhats. Like many, I view them as family, and I see both Luffy and Zoro as AroAce. Both are so simple-minded and want nothing more but meat/booze and their dreams.

But since both of them hold a very special place in my heart, I always wanted the best for them.

For Zoro, I love to see him happy and not alone. The person who always brings out Zoro's best smiles has always been Luffy. Zoro, who was mostly shown as serious and grumpy, smiles whenever he sees Luffy when they finally meet again after some time apart (when he saw Luffy in Sabaody, it was the first time he smiled, and their Wano reunion where you can really see Zoro's brightest smile). There are so many times Luffy had made him smile and laugh and I know Zoro, despite being aloof and often wants to be alone, really enjoys Luffy's company. Zoro, who also doesn't liked to be touched, still welcomes Luffy's suffocating hugs.

Zoro set sail alone with nothing but his sword and his ambitions, and for him to find someone who also holds the same impossible dream as him and holds his ambitions in the same high regard must have felt a sense of companionship for him. Zoro, who is alone, is given a companion(Luffy) who will also chase the same impossible dream together with him. Not only that, Luffy has also given him a new-found family(Strawhats). I just know that ever since he met Luffy, his life has been better.

Aside from that, Zoro has often been portrayed as someone who would never bow down to anyone. It was even shown multiple times in the series how people are surprised he wasn't the captain. He's arrogant and proud. The reason he wants to defeat Mihawk and Kuina is because he wants to stand above them and be the strongest. Luffy is the only person Zoro has chosen to stand above him as his captain, and that speaks a lot.

Zoro is proud, but Luffy is still the only person that made him bow 2 times. It only shows how much he holds Luffy above the only 2 things that matter when he first sets out to sea. Even now, Zoro is still portrayed as prideful, but with Luffy or the crew, I know he will not have a second thought about throwing it away.

For Luffy, I just want him to be loved and cherished. The Strawhats have shown time and time again how much they care, love and sacrifice themselves for Luffy. But before the Strawhats was even formed, it was just Luffy and Zoro in a dinghy. The moment Zoro carried Luffy's cage while his guts are spilling out was the moment Zoro became my favorite character. He just met Luffy for only a few hours?days?weeks?, and yet he treated him like he was important. Since the beginning, Zoro has consistently shown unwavering loyalty and support to Luffy. Dudebros even called him "Luffy's ride or die" and Zoro honestly earned it. When I read the manga, Zoro didn't even question if Luffy already had a crew or if Luffy already had a ship. He just literally went with him, no questions asked. Where are we going next? The grandline? Well I guess we'll just go there. Let's find a navigator first.

The moment Zoro joined him, Luffy was already so cherished and loved by his first mate(it didn't even matter if it was romantic or platonic. Zoro really loves him). Until now, Zoro, despite being prideful, will sacrifice himself time and time again for him.

From the beginning, it was just Zoro and Luffy in a tiny boat with nothing but each other and their impossible dreams. And I know until the end of the series, they will still stand side by side, with the family they gathered along the way and the dreams they finally reached together.

In summary to my endless rambling, their relationship has always been special to me because, as my 2 favorite characters, I want nothing more than to see them the happiest and at most loved. I didn't ship them at first, but ZoLu just complement each other in every single way that I gradually see that they deserve one another (and I can't see them paired with anyone else). Aside from having the same single braincell and many parallels, their relationship is so simple but has so much depth. They can literally just be best friends or lovers. At the end of the day, they are soulmates.

Ughhh... Please don't take his swordsman away from him
