Summary
Kuina wanted to be a swordsman. In fact, she didn’t just want to be a random nobody; she wanted to be the best one in the world.
She died, and it’s not like she can be one now, so she (begrudgingly!) settles for the next best thing on the list.
If she can’t be The Strongest Swordsman, then she’ll be The Strongest Sword in the hands of The Strongest Swordsman. Which will be Zoro, naturally. Nobody else is worthy of having that title, not after the promise they made.
(And gods help her if Zoro dies before obtaining that title. She’ll kill him herself, no matter how dead they both would be, and not even Roger, for all his goofiness and positivity and her love and respect for him, will be able to stop her.)
OR.
Kuina died. But that’s okay, especially if being dead means she gets to protect Zoro from Death.(Someone always has to leave first. This is a very old story, and there’s no other version of it.)Series
