Before Shusui and Enma, Zoro carried Yubashiri, a gift from a Loguetown sword shop. Here is its story, how Zoro lost it at Enies Lobby, and our Yubashiri LED katana.
In this story · この物語の品
Most fans know Zoro's three swords today: Wado Ichimonji, Sandai Kitetsu and Enma. But for the whole run from Loguetown to Enies Lobby, his third sword was a different one: Yubashiri. It is the sword Zoro lost, and the one he said goodbye to.
How Zoro got Yubashiri
In Loguetown, the last town before the Grand Line, Zoro walked into a sword shop with almost no money. He picked up the cursed Sandai Kitetsu and tested his luck by throwing it in the air and holding out his arm. The blade missed him. The shop owner, Ipponmatsu, was so impressed that he gave Zoro Kitetsu for free, and added Yubashiri, a fine sword from his own family, telling Zoro it deserved a swordsman like him.
The sword
The name Yubashiri is usually read as "snow run". In the story it is a light, fast blade, and it fought beside Wado Ichimonji and Sandai Kitetsu through Arabasta, Skypiea and Water 7.
How Zoro lost it
At Enies Lobby, the Marine Shu touched Yubashiri with the power of his Devil Fruit and rusted the blade until it fell apart. Zoro did not throw it away in anger. He thanked it and let it go, one of the quiet moments that show how much his swords mean to him. It is also why he needed a new third sword, which he found at Thriller Bark: Shusui.
