In episode 1060 of One Piece, titled "Enma No Himitsu! Zoro Ni Takusareshi Youtou" ("The Secret of Enma! The Cursed Sword Entrusted to Zoro"), Zoro faces off against King and struggles to regain control over the powerful sword Enma. During the battle, Zoro is nearly defeated, but a journey into the past gives him the determination and understanding he needs to unleash Enma's full potential.
The episode begins with Zoro barely managing to recover his Wado Ichimonji in time to defend against King's relentless assault. Despite his efforts, Zoro struggles against his opponent, as Enma drains his strength and Haki at every opportunity. When the ground beneath them collapses, Zoro falls into a basement, and a flashback to his childhood begins.
Thirteen years earlier, young Zoro meets an old man named Shimotsuki Kozaburo, who teaches him about the nature of swords and their wielders. Kozaburo reveals that he forged Enma himself in his youth and that the blade is meant to test its wielder's strength. Zoro realizes that the village he grew up in, Shimotsuki, has a connection to Kozaburo, who turns out to be Kuina's grandfather.
Back in the present, Momonosuke struggles to maintain his flame clouds as he tries to pull Onigashima away from the capital. He discovers that he can manipulate Kaido's clouds, giving him a new approach to his task.
Meanwhile, the CP0 agents quickly deal with Apoo and X. Drake, but Zanki and Inbi arrive just in time to turn the tide. As Zoro reflects on Kozaburo's wisdom, he realizes that Enma is not malicious but rather judging his worthiness as a swordsman. He decides to release as much Haki as possible to tame the sword, even if it risks his life.
When Zoro unleashes his Conqueror's Haki, the surrounding subordinates collapse, and King wonders if Zoro intends to become a king himself. Zoro remembers the promise he made to Kuina and Luffy—to become the greatest swordsman in the world—and reaffirms his commitment to them.
