One Piece Chapter 1171 recap
Chapter 1171 (titled “Ragnir”) deals with the aftermath of Harald’s death and the political damage it leaves behind. The chapter closes the flashback aftermath of Harald’s death and shows how messy the truth really is. In the wake of the killing, Gaban admits he dreaded what Harald could have become if he escaped the castle with the Depths Covenant’s power, and the survivors immediately worry about what the public reaction will look like once the news spreads. Loki chooses a hard path: he takes the surviving guards out to sea, plans to “avenge” Harald publicly, and asks Jarul, Gaban, and Shanks to keep the real story buried so Elbaph does not collapse into unrest. He also accepts that the country will likely blame him anyway, but he would rather carry that hatred than let the World Government’s manipulation win.
The chapter also checks in on Mary Geoise, where Imu reacts to the backlash of Harald’s death and refuses to send more knights into danger, while hinting that granting covenants comes with a personal cost. Imu also frames Elbaph as fundamentally incompatible with the World Government and drops a loaded line that ties Elbaph to “D.”
Back in the present, Hajrudin finally understands why Jarul tried to protect Loki, and he releases him after hearing the full context. Then a Draugr-like MMA drops into the Underworld, giving Loki an immediate chance to show Luffy what he can do. With Luffy literally tagging along to watch, Loki calls Ragnir and freezes the threat in a single show-of-force strike, leaving Luffy stunned by the power gap.
One Piece Chapter 1172 Spoilers
Here are One Piece Chapter 1172 spoilers:
- Chapter 1,172: “The Elbaph I admired”.
– Reader request in the cover: “Swans taking Bon Clay’s makeup products and using them”.
– Chapter starts with Hajrudin group in the elevator. As they go up, Gaban gives them full recap of situation, the enemies and their powers. When the group arrive to the “Sun World” they find Kashii injured.
– Kashii explains the current chaos, so the Straw Hat Pirates and the New Giant Warrior Pirates decide to split up: Zoro and Hajrudin go to help Jarul, while Sanji goes to rescue Nami and Robin and to put out fire at school and library.
Kashii: “I beg you… please hurry!! Master Jarul is in trouble!!”
– Then we see a double page with a map of the “Branch Route 8” showing where everyone is and what they are doing. Near the “Owl Library” we see Nami, Usopp, Robin and Jinbe still tied up with Gunko’s arrows.
Robin: “The library is burning…”
Nami: “They kidnapped the children!! Somebody release these “arrows”!!”
Jinbe: “Chopper hasn’t returned yet… And Brook left too after he seemed to have some thoughts…”
Usopp: “Master Dorry!! Master Brogy!! Damn it!! I don’t want to see those two like that!!”
– The Domi Reversed Giant Warrior Pirates head toward Western Village to kill Jarul. Ripley, Oimo and other giants go to rescue the children. And the children have almost reached the port.
– In the Western Village giants ask Jarul to run away but he refuses because he has something to tell to all of Elbaph. Then he uses a Den Den Mushi to communicate with all giants.
– Jarul reveals the truth about what happened to Harald and he declares Loki’s innocence. Then he talks about the “devils” that tried to conquer Elbaph 14 years ago.
– Then, in an AMAZING double page, we see Imu/Gunko (commanding Domi Reversed giants), Killingham (commanding MMA) and Sommers listening Jarul’s speech.
Jarul: “However… today the devils return!! I suspect they are in need of great forces once more…
Three devils appear here for yet another attempt at conquering this nation!!”
Sommers: “Ahhh, the mission would complete itself even if I take a nap.”
Jarul: “Listen up, you devils!!
Since you put the children’s lives on the line, we are willing to give up our “culture” and “history”!!
But if this was a plan conceived to break our “will”, then what a stupendous move…!!
Do not expect us to endure blindly as Harald has done!!
“Rule” over us? Make us “slaves”? We let you talk for a while and it seems that made you feel too comfortable!!!”
Imu/Gunko: “…”
Usopp: “That’s right!! You tell them, Jarul!!
The Elbaph I admired is not being taken down by anyone!!”
Jarul: “My apologies, but dear children, please cover your ears…!!
If everything goes as the “Harley” foretold, that the world will truly be separated into parts someday!!
We, “Elbaph”, shall see the “World Government” as our enemy!!!”
– In the EPIC final double page of the chapter, we see Jarul finishing his speech while giants prepare for battle. Usopp is very excited after Jarul’s speech (his eyes are hearts) but Nami is angry because they are still prisoners looool
Jarul: “We shall not bend our knees to your tyranny!!
Do I stand corrected!? My fellow “honorable warriors of Elbaph”!!”
Giants: “Absolutely!!! Master Jarul~~~~~~!!!”
Usopp (excited): “Ohhh myyy♡ My beloved Elbaph is finally back~~~~!!!”
Nami (angry): “Yeah, yeah!! But how about we think of a way to get us out of these arrows!!?”
Jarul: “Let us protect the “peace” Harald envisioned!!!”
Giants: “Woaaaahhh~~~~~!!!”
– Dorry, Brogy and Domi Reversed giants arrive to the Western Village but Jarul and the giants are ready to fight them. Zoro, Hajrudin and Stansen are right behind the Domi Reversed giants. Zoro, very confident, says something…
Hajrudin: “We see them now!! I heard it’s best not to get in their middle!!”
Zoro: “I have a “plan”.”
– End of chapter, NO BREAK next week.
