Roronoa Zoro is the nineteen old swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates. Recruited as a mildly notorious bounty hunter in East Blue .hence his Pirate Hunter moniker, he grows into a monstruously powerful man who doesn't even need a Devil Fruit ability, using a unique Santoryu Three Sword Style in battle, wielding a sword in each hand along with one in the mouth. After the time skip, he manages to master Haki as well. Zoro mostly drinks and sleeps in his spare time (when he's not training his ass off), but becomes a real demon in battle that can defeat five hundred Mooks in two seconds. Often wears a green bandanna on his forearm that he ties around his head when he gets dangerous. Moreover, he is Luffy's Number Two, sometimes acting as a voice of authority when the crew's future must be decided, and regularly happens to battle The Dragon of the current Big Bad the crew are fighting, which is an occasion to hone his swordsmanship.
Similar to Luffy's goal, He wishes to become the greatest swordsman in the world as a promise to his childhood rival Kuina, whom he wanted to win against but never could because she died in an accident. Unlike Luffy, however, he needs only to defeat Dracule "Hawk Eyes" Mihawk, the current greatest swordsman in the world, to do so. Zoro actually meets up with Mihawk early in the story, but failed to land a single hit and was sliced by Mihawk's BFS for his trouble. Mihawk, however, held back just enough to leave Zoro alive, and told him to challenge him again when he was ready. In a strange twist of events, he is trained by Mihawk to be a stronger swordsman to protect his crew. Zoro giving up his pride for the sake of others impresses Mihawk .
Mainly because of his strength and for going alongside Luffy's battles, Zoro is counted as a member of "The Worst Generation" like his captain.
