What’s Exciting in One Piece Chapter 1122?
While One Piece is known for its incredible adventures, the emotional connections between characters often resonate the most. In the Egghead arc, we encounter a robot named Emeth, which has an intriguing backstory.
Despite being dormant for centuries, Emeth finally awakens after sensing the Voice of All Things within Luffy. This connection is akin to the heartbeat of Joyboy, and the robot recognizes its master even while still inactive in its dormant state.

Afterward, Emeth declares its loyalty to Luffy, acknowledging him as the new Joyboy. It understands that Joyboy has long since passed and that Luffy is a different individual. However, it sees Luffy as a reflection of its former master and wishes to protect him at all costs.
In One Piece Chapter 1122, Luffy’s awakening triggers Emeth’s release of its inherent Haki, which has been stored for centuries. This powerful Haki enabled Emeth to transform back into its former glory and escape from the grasp of the world government, ultimately leading to the iconic Mary Geoise.
This development significantly impacts the Straw Hat crew and their mission on Egghead, allowing the robot to regain consciousness. When Emeth sees Luffy, it recalls the long-lost connection it had with its master.

In its recollections, we see the robot sharing a vision of Joyboy, represented only by a shadow. Before sealing Haki within itself, Joyboy expresses his intention to safeguard Emeth after his demise.
“There will come a time when the world will face dire threats… or someone will be in danger! When that moment arrives… let the seal be undone.” Joyboy said before channeling his Haki into Emeth.
What’s even more touching is that Emeth views Luffy not just as protection but as a way to continually feel the presence of its late master. As it states: “Hehe… when that moment comes, I will be happy! Thank you! It won’t matter if you die; you will still be here with me!”
How Do One Piece Fans Feel?
By the end of One Piece Chapter 1122, before losing consciousness, the robot expresses its final wish: “I hope I won’t feel lonely…”
It’s quite heartbreaking to see Emeth expressing such feelings, especially since it no longer possesses Joyboy’s Haki. Even though it may not remain by its master’s side, it hopes to reunite with Luffy in the future and find another companion to share its existence with.
