Spoilers Warning: This article includes heavy spoilers about chapter 1121 of One Piece. Make sure to read the chapter beforehand in order to avoid ruining your intended experience.
The Nika Duo’s Victory Against Saturn
One Piece chapter 1121 kicked off with Saturn’s rampage inside the giants’ ship, and this is how it went:
- Bonney was able to go back into her Gear 5 “Nika” form, although she was in an overwhelmed state.
- Saturn robbed life and everything from the Kuma family, but again he tried to kill Bonney and Kuma on Egghead Island.
- Luckily, Bonney with the help of Luffy, both in their Gear 5 forms, they were able to pound St. Saturn to a severely injured state and knock him off the ship.
- The current status of St. Saturn remains unknown, but he is in terrible shape, and to top it off, he is left in the seas for now.
- The Straw Hat Pirates inside the Thousand Sunny ship were seen up in the air, falling down to the sea.
Dr. Vegapunk’s Message Ends and Fuels the One Piece Race
Dr. Vegapunk’s message continued as he talked about how Gol D. Roger kickstarted the Great Age of Pirates. He remarked about:
- Certain races, such as the Buccaneer, Three-Eyed Tribe, Lunarians, etc., were oppressed by the World Government back then, which also led to their near-extinction.
- However, the situation has turned around slightly, and many people from the new generation can’t be oppressed by them anymore.
- He claimed that these are the ones who are capable of finding the One Piece and learning about the real truth behind this world.
- Moreover, he also stated that there is no guarantee that the One Piece treasure won’t be found only by the person who Joy Boy wanted, which is what makes the race more interesting now.
- We get cameos of the Yonko (the Four Emperors), cross guild, Rayleigh, and several others were showcased.
- Finally, the last panel of this chapter featured an iconic double spread of all the stars who are in the final race to One Piece.
- It included Luffy, Shanks, Blackbeard, Buggy, Garling Figarland, Imu, Koby, Aokiji, Monkey D. Dragon, Sabo, Akainu, and a silhouette of a mysterious man.
- Now, the mysterious silhouette is speculated to be the evil twin of Shanks by the fans.
That’s everything we have learned from One Piece Chapter 1121. I truly love the way Oda ignited the feelings of the fans by kicking off the final adventures in the best way possible. From now on, things are about to get heated and even more interesting. So, do stay tuned for more updates about the One Piece manga.
