One Piece‘s chapter #1125 will close the curtain on yet another story and transition to a new one, promising to expand on the land of the giants which the series has always hinted at, Elbaf. One of the most remarkable aspects of Eiichiro Oda’s storytelling is how seamlessly interconnected the narratives are, showcasing his mastery of the craft.

Egghead Island was rich with these intricate connections, featuring characters driven by compelling motives, with Bonney and Bartholomew Kuma standing out in particular.

Kuma’s backstory is one of the most poignant tales of One Piece, which finally explains every single decision this well-written character has made. Whereas, the mysterious Dr. Vegapunk finally helped uncover some of the mysteries of One Piece, and with his demise, the race for the titular treasure has intensified.

The upcoming chapter #1125, will kick off a new arc set in the vast lands of the giants. This arc promises not only to introduce new and exciting characters but also to reintroduce old and significant ones.

This suggests that One Piece will finally feature the emotional reunion between Robin and Jaguar D. Saul, her first friend and the savior of her life. Fans will be eager to witness this meeting. While Elbaf will feel familiar, having been teased for nearly two decades, the anticipation of what awaits the Straw Hats is thrilling, especially with hints that someone is already waiting for them. However, fans will have to wait a bit longer, as One Piece will be on break next week.

What Happened in One Piece Chapter #1124?

The Straw Hats Get Closer to the Anticipated Elbaf Island

One Piece Chapter #1124, “Close Friend,” opens with Morgans scheming about how to capitalize on the recent events at Egghead Island for his headlines. Vivi, frustrated, accuses him of being a liar, especially since he’s planning to spread the false news that Luffy killed Dr. Vegapunk. Before shifting to the Straw Hats’ journey to Elbaf Island, the chapter provides a glimpse of the aftermath on Egghead Island, confirming that Sentomaru has survived the catastrophic events. Meanwhile, Admiral Kizaru answers a call from Fleet Admiral Sakazuki, updating him on the current state of affairs.

Borsalino, devastated after killing his friend Dr. Vegapunk, breaks down while answering Sakazuki’s request, yelling at the Fleet Admiral and calling him ungrateful. The chapter then dives into the giant’s ship en route to Elbaf.

However, the celebration has toned down as the Straw Hats are grieving over Dr. Vegapunk’s death. Vegapunk Lilith finally gains consciousness and is informed about how they wind up on the giant’s ship, but Lilith remarks that she heard the story and suddenly breaks down, crying over the loss of the other Vegapunks. As soon as her tears subside, Lilith exclaims that she is hungry.

In search of food, Lilith finds Luffy, who is still sad about Dr. Vegapunk’s death, and his unfulfilled promise to get Vegapunk off Egghead Island. However, Lilith reassures him, explaining that all the Vegapunks are still alive and are only “dead in concept,” assuring Luffy that he has kept his promise.

As the chapter nears its end and the Straw Hats draw closer to Elbaf Island, Luffy declares that he will become the King of the Pirates, no matter who stands in his way, friend or foe, while in the final panel, a mysterious silhouette is seen waiting for the Straw Hats’ arrival on Elbaf.

What Will Happen In One Piece Chapter #1125?

The Anticipated Land of the Warriors, Elbaf, Might Finally Come into Display

One Piece Chapter #1125 is expected to dive into the Land of the Warriors. However, One Piece‘s trend of exploring the impact of the latest event worldwide might continue before the Straw Hats set foot on Elbaf Island. This could feature key characters from around the world, with a particular focus on the Revolutionary Army.

The possibility of Monkey D. Dragon making an appearance is high, as he might hint at his next move, especially after learning that the World Government now possesses an Ancient Weapon.

Speaking of which, the reactions of the Five Elders and Imu to the events at Egghead Island remain somewhat unclear, leaving a high possibility that the upcoming chapter will focus on them. Amidst this, Saturn’s situation is particularly strange, as he was last seen facing the Iron Giant all alone while the other Five Elders have retreated.

That said, One Piece Chapter #1125 could conclude with the Straw Hats arriving at Elbaf Island, where they are greeted by the enigmatic figure who has been awaiting their arrival.
