Being one of the 21 O Wazamono Swords, Enma is one of the most powerful katanas ever created, being considered by Hiyori to be a suitable replacement for Shusui, another one of the 21 O Wazamono swords. In the hands of Oden, it became the only weapon known to have ever harmed the nigh-invulnerable Kaido, a Yonko, giving him his only scar.[3] True to Hiyori's words, Enma demonstrated power and sharpness far surpassing Shusui, as when Zoro tried to cut a tree he ended up cutting a whole cliff off. Hitetsu described its power as being able to cut through Hell itself.
According to Tenguyama Hitetsu, if Zoro manages to turn Enma into a black blade, it will increase it's rank to one of the 12 Saijo O Wazamono.[4]
History
Past
Like its sister blade, Enma was forged by a famous blacksmith.[1] The sword originally belonged to Kozuki Oden, who later used it to wound one of the Yonko, Kaido, giving him his only scar. After his death, it was passed onto his daughter, Kozuki Hiyori.[3]
Wano Country Arc
After Hiyori begged Zoro to leave his stolen Shusui in its rightful place on Wano, she offered Enma as a replacement.[3] Zoro agreed to Hiyori's proposal of leaving Shusui for Enma.
Trivia
- "Enma" is the Japanese name for Yama, the Buddhist equivalent of the Hindu god named the same, part of various East Asian mythologies. He is a wrathful god serving as chief judge of the dead (deciding to which afterlife dead souls go), by extension presiding over the Narakas (or "Hells") and the cycle of reincarnation.
- In Chapter 920 and Episode 893 a flashback of Oden is seen wielding a sword with a different tsuba. Whether this is a mistake or another sword is unknown.
- On the cover of Chapter 937, Roronoa Zoro was seen reading a map featuring a sword and the word "Enma".
- Enma is also the name of the shrine in the forest where Hiyori and Zoro end up in Chapter 950.
