In the vast universe of One Piece, Monkey D. Luffy has many formidable foes. Among them, the admirals are undoubtedly the most prominent. In the latest chapter of the One Piece manga, Chapter 1091, Luffy is set to confront Admiral Kizaru on Egghead Island. This battle promises to be incredibly thrilling.
Previously, although all admirals are considered “strong opponents,” Kizaru has been overshadowed by the two prominent figures, Akainu and Aokiji.

Kizaru wields the powerful Pika Pika no Mi, a Logia-type Devil Fruit, which enables him to transform into light and create light-based constructs, allowing for incredibly rapid movement. He can also manipulate light energy to evade attacks, create light constructs, cause explosions, and move at the speed of light.
In the past, the admiral was known for his swift strikes, notably against Zoro, causing chaos among the Straw Hat Pirates during the Sabaody Archipelago incident.
Now, with the recent plot developments in One Piece gaining momentum, fans are left wondering whether Kizaru’s powers can truly match Luffy’s abilities in this highly anticipated showdown.
After the time skip, the navy and its admirals have undergone significant changes. Akainu has risen to the position of Fleet Admiral, maintaining a strict and ruthless viewpoint regarding justice. Kuzan, on the other hand, has left the navy and joined the Blackbeard Pirates. Kizaru remains as he was, with no notable changes in his allegiance.

Currently, Kizaru stands as the most significant adversary that Luffy must face. However, the potential that lies within the Golden Admiral has yet to be fully explored in this encounter.
Many fans speculate that Kizaru’s aloof and detached demeanor may merely be a facade for a more complex personality beneath, making the upcoming battle with the Straw Hats and Vegapunk a critical moment that could reveal his true character.
Kizaru may also have the opportunity to strategically unleash his powers, posing a real challenge even in Luffy’s Gear 5 state. After all, One Piece consistently shines when its characters are pushed to their limits, whether they are heroes or villains.
It is certain that this will be a pivotal moment for Kizaru to showcase his true abilities, leaving an indelible mark on the One Piece universe.
