Roronoa Zoro, the strongest swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates, demonstrated his remarkable combat abilities in Chapter 1110 of the popular manga series, One Piece. During his intense battle with Lucci, the Straw Hat Pirate unleashed a devastating technique known as the Three Sword Style—Hahava Leopard Hunter.

This powerful attack showcased Zoro's mastery of the Three Sword Style, a fighting technique that involves wielding three swords simultaneously.

The name Thre­e Sword Style—Hahava Leopard Hunte­r carries a deep significance that extends beyond its visually impressive nature. The term "Hahava" is derived from the­ Buddhist concept of the Eight Cold Hells, specifically referring to the Hahava Hell, which represents re­alms of suffering and punishment for those who commit grave sins.

This symbolic reference embedded within the name of Zoro's attack adds a layer of depth and meaning to his fighting style. It suggests that the technique holds the power to inflict severe punishment upon those who dare to challenge Zoro's formidable skills. The incorporation of this Buddhist concept further enhances the intrigue surrounding Zoro's swordsmanship and his unwavering determination to emerge victorious in battle.

As per Buddhist teachings, Hahava Hell is depicted as a realm of severe freezing temperatures and immense suffering. Those who find themselves destined for this place endure unimaginable agony and torment beyond comprehension.

The name "Hahava" in Zoro's attack reflects his unwavering determination to achieve justice and defeat his enemies with unyielding resolve, drawing parallels to the unforgiving and merciless nature of this hellish realm.

Further, the term "Leopard Hunter" directly corresponds to Lucci's ability to transform into a leopard after consuming the Neko-Neko no Mi, Model: Leopard. This ability allows Lucci to take on the form and characteristics of a leopard.

By utilizing the "Leopard Hunter" technique, Zoro exhibits his adaptability and tactical prowess in counte­ring Lucci's unique abilities. This strategic choice to incorporate the concept of hunting leopards adds depth and intensity to their clash, as Zoro must employ specialized tactics and techniques to overcome Lucci's feline form and combat prowess.
