History
Roronoa Zoro trained as a swordsman at a very young age at the Shimotsuki Village dojo, where he gained experience in the way of the sword. When his childhood friend Kuina died, he honored her legacy by inheriting her sword, and created his signature "Santoryu" which had him use three swords at once.

He went of to find Dracule "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk, the best swordsman in the world so he could take the title from him, but was captured by a Marine Corp after saving a little girl from the Captain's son's dog. He would eventually meet Monkey D. Luffy, and after rescuing him, agreed to a part of Luffy's crew as Luffy's first mate.

One Minute Melee
Zoro appeared as a combatant in One Minute Melee, where he fought against Rurouni Kenshin from Samurai X and won. Later, he appeared in episode Oni VS Kenpachi Round 3, where he, Luffy, and Ichigo are shown trying to find a way out of the forest. After the fight, they remain trapped in the forest, much to the dismay of Zoro, who uses his swords to outright attack the camera in frustration.
