The ongoing events at Elbaf continue to escalate with significant developments, particularly the recent emergence of Imu’s formidable powers in the latest chapter.
Chapter 1149 of One Piece presents a striking image in the background: the Mysterious Crew is seen at a bar, with the female members of the crew (alongside Lilith and Bonney) donning dresses that emphasize their femininity.
Returning to the main storyline, the battle between Scopper Gaban and Gunko continues to unfold. Gaban, with his extensive combat experience, completely overwhelms Gunko, striking him with powerful Haki combined with his own unique weapon. Despite being heavily wounded, Gunko remains alive, but it’s important to note that he cannot recover from this encounter.
However, the situation quickly deteriorates when Gunko approaches Colon with the intent to kill if Gaban does not surrender. Unwilling to put Colon in danger, Gaban reluctantly decides to comply. Soon after, Gunko has attacked him and thrown him out of the Golden Dawn.
According to @WorstGenHQ, Gaban is confirmed to possess Haki capabilities that may be crucial for the future in this chapter. This explains why he refrained from attacking Gunko upon seeing that Colon was in danger, opting instead to surrender to protect the child. There is also information (not yet fully confirmed) suggesting that Gaban still possesses advanced Haki skills. If true, this would further enhance the already extraordinary abilities of this member of the Roger Pirates.
Following this, a mysterious group appears, hinting at Brook’s complicated past, revealing that he has known Gunko for a long time, even before becoming a ghost. This detail raises many questions about Brook’s relationship with the world and past characters.
After Gaban is defeated, Gunko seems to regain his senses and appears to be trying to find a way out for Brook. This may suggest that Gunko still has some humanity left or is affected by his own past experiences.
The turning point of the chapter occurs when Imu, the enigmatic figure at the helm of the World Government, unexpectedly seizes control over Gunko. Imu appears incredibly calm, as the Gorosei have taken too long to resolve matters, while the Holy Land is currently under siege and attack.
Chapter 1149 concludes with a powerful and chilling declaration from Imu: “The world will witness a divine retribution unlike any before.”
Chapter 1149 is a chapter filled with tension and sets the stage for an even higher climax, showcasing the chaos and Imu’s intimidating presence. The battle in Elbaf promises to become even more intense as the stakes rise. Fans are left to ponder whether Gaban’s capabilities are sufficient to withstand the threats he faces and how Imu’s true powers will manifest in the upcoming battles.
Next week, the saga continues.
