One Piece chapter 1142 has truly captivated fans in many ways, but what excites the audience the most is the various hints that Luffy may encounter the legendary “Big Mom” in the near future. The Saint Sommers alliance has taken full advantage of the strengths of the crew, transforming the “Big Mom” situation into a significant threat to the residents of Elbaf, making the teachers of Walrus Academy face immense difficulties in controlling the situation.
Oda Hints at the Possible Return of Big Mom in One Piece
In the world of giants, comprising mythical creatures such as Fenrir, Nidhogg, Loki, Nika, Draugr, and even the world serpent Jormungandr, these monsters represent the fiercest challenges for the inhabitants of this realm. It’s noteworthy that the “Big Mom” concept has become a living reality in Elbaf.
However, the most crucial detail is that a creature resembling Big Mom has been spotted in Elbaf towards the end of the chapter.
This could just be a hint regarding Oda’s intent, but fans are already aware that the most formidable foe in One Piece is none other than Charlotte Linlin, the Empress Big Mom.
Generally, this isn’t the first time Big Mom has been mentioned in relation to Elbaf. Her name was also brought up during the banquet of the Gods, and even the great god Loki has connections to Big Mom and her complicated past. Oda’s careful mention of Big Mom in this segment leads fans to believe that the character may indeed return.
If the creature resembling Big Mom signifies her return to Elbaf, it will set the stage for significant developments in her storyline. Firstly, Big Mom has deep ties to this land. When she was younger, Linlin was brought to Elbaf by her mother. Big Mom lived in Elbaf for several months during her childhood.
Moreover, she has established relationships with various figures such as Gerd, Hajrudin, Jarul, and many others in the Elbaf community. At one point, Big Mom had to take responsibility for the death of Jarul, which was due to her causing an uproar in the village. However, many years later, she has attempted to rebuild her connections with Elbaf once again through a marriage alliance between Loki and Lola that ultimately failed.
Now, the biggest concern regarding the return of Big Mom is that many believe she has already died. However, whether she is truly dead or not remains to be seen. Her ship, the Queen Mama Chanterelle, was spotted outside Wano when CP0 launched an attack, and her ally Charlotte Pudding is not entirely certain whether Big Mom is dead or not. There are signs indicating that Big Mom may still be alive, and fans can only wait to see if these hints are indeed accurate.
