Shimotsuki Ryuma is a legendary samurai from Wano Country, known as the Sword God and hero of the Wano Country. Shimotsuki Ryuma earned immense respect for slaying a dragon in the sky over the capital of Wano. Shimotsuki Ryuma wielded the sword Shusui, one of the 21 Great Grade Swords, which became a National Treasure of Wano. Shimotsuki Ryuma possessed such incredible strength that even a single cut from Shimotsuki Ryuma could split the clouds. Shimotsuki Ryuma's fighting style heavily influenced modern Wano swordsmanship. Shimotsuki Ryuma's legacy lives on through the Shimotsuki family, including Roronoa Zoro who inherited Shimotsuki Ryuma's sword style. Shimotsuki Ryuma's corpse was later reanimated by Gecko Moria, leading to a duel with Zoro where Shimotsuki Ryuma acknowledged Zoro's strength.
