It is very possible that it is the Shodai. The hilt looks identical, but the sheath looks wrong. If it is the Shodai, then this is a testament to the overall strength of the Gorosei. If one of them carries one of the best swords in the world, and if we assume they are all about equal in strength, then the Gorosei are powerful indeed.
