One Piece is getting another writer for Zoro novel \u2014 and here\u2019s why CrunchyrollOne Piece\u2019s beloved character, Rorona Zoro, is getting a light novel, but the author won\u2019t be Eiichiro Oda \u2014 here\u2019s what you need to know. Rorona Zoro is Luffy\u2019s first mate and his right-hand man. He debuts in chapter 2 and has been Luffy\u2019s trusted partner ever since. The two have come a long way in their journey, having several more allies in the process. However, their adventure is far from over. As the manga continues with the Egghead Arc, One Piece has announced a light novel about Zoro\u2019s life before joining the crew. We will learn more about his life as a pirate hunter. However, Eiichiro Oda wouldn\u2019t be writing the novel. The release date of the book has yet to be confirmed. Instead, a renowned light novel writer, Jun Esaka, famous for writing Naruto Shinden, Sasuke Retsuden, and Kakashi Retsuden, is taking the reins. He even wrote the One Piece novel Heroines, which centers around female characters. Hence, although Zoro\u2019s light novel will not be canon to One Piece, it\u2019s still highly anticipated. Zoro left his hometown in search of Mihawk, the world\u2019s strongest swordsman. He wanted to defeat him and claim the title for himself. He first shared this dream with his childhood friend Kuina. However, after her sudden death, he wanted to achieve that dream for both of them. However, he gets lost on his way to find Mihawk and ends up becoming a pirate hunter. He also started working alongside Johnny and Yosaku. Zoro worked as a pirate hunter for years before meeting Luffy; his life has never been the same since.
