One Piece: Spoilers for Chapter 1169 at a Glance
Attention: Here are spoilers for the content of the upcoming chapter.
What happens in Chapter 1169? Thanks to Reddit, we know what happens in the upcoming chapter:
- Gaban says Garp told him Roger has a son. Shanks says, then that child is like his younger brother.
- Harald orders Giant Soldiers to kill him, that’s the scene we saw in Chapter 1152 when Loki and Jarul arrived to the castle.
- Shanks explains he’s in Elbaph to tell Harald not to accept the “Knight of God” position.
- Harald explains to Loki, Jarul and the Giant Soldiers that he worked with the government and betrayed they betrayed him. Then he asks Loki to kill him and tell Elbaph what happened.
- Harald orders Loki to eat the Legendary Devil Fruit, otherwise he won’t be able to kill/defeat him.
- Harald has lost his sense of mind completely, turning into a cruel monster and attacking everyone, including Jarul who got stabbed in his head
- Shanks and Gaban tried to stop Harald, but it’s pointless since Harald lost his mind.
- Loki goes to the treasure room to eat the legendary Devil Fruit. When Loki enters the treasure room, Ragnir’s hammer attacks him.
What happened last? If you missed chapter 1168, we can summarize the main things for you here:
- Ida died on a snowy day. Harald and Hajrudin wept for her, and Loki suffered silently while he was held captive.
- 14 years ago, Shanks was supposed to receive the Deep Sea Pact, but he did not appear. Instead, they decided to promote Harald for the Deep Sea Pact and appoint him as the Knight of God.
- Harald gained more power and immortality.
- Imu commanded Harald to create the Abyss Circle in Elbaph. After that, Imu ordered him to build a huge army for the government.
- The chapter ends with Loki and Jarul arriving at the castle.
Until Oda writes the last chapter of One Piece, it will probably take some time. Accordingly, we will experience several arcs and islands where we will follow the story of Luffy and his crew. MeinMMO has attempted to make a prediction of when the end of the pirate story might be reached: When does the story of One Piece end?
