One piece of episode 1127 release date

The decisive battle of Luffy and Kizar will end up in an episode of one piece 1127.

ODA confirms that the Holy Knights are afraid of Luffy

In Chapter 1147 Killingham cursed Sommers and told him that the holy knights were not in Elbaf to provoke the monkey D. Luffy. The conversation suggests that the Holy Knights take Luffy's power seriously and do not want to do anything to do the pirate goal.

Another example of the holy knights are afraid of Luffy is when Sommers cursed Gunek when she tried to force the stream to become her slave. Sommers told her to stop because he wasn't in the mood to fight the Emperor. These two cases prove that the holy knights are cautious from Luffy and know better than to earn his anger.

When will Luffy come back to fight the Holy Knights?

Luffy may not return at least a few chapters

Saint Sommers Devil Fruit One Piece 1143 (1)

Luffy was last seen lying on his back after consuming a ton of food. His body happened around as a balloon, suggesting that he was eating too much. It is worth noting that Luffy lay beside Loki, who was in a similar state. It is possible that Eiichiro Oda does not want to bring Luffy to the picture. The author has already created a massive battle for Nico Robin and Scopper Gaban, which is likely to take place in Chapter 1148. Both have the same goal – to save children from the joints of the Saints of the Knights.

It is likely that Nico Robin will fight Gunek who injured Brook. Robin greatly protects her crew members, so she does not allow this offense not to punish. Meanwhile, Scopper Gaban will fight Shepherd Sommers. He is a sadistic and twisted person who likes the pain of others. It also romantizes the injuries and harm that it causes to people.

Gaban attacks the holy knight to save his son

Fans know that Gaban was sent to save children Ripley after finding that Collun was a hostage to the Holy Knights. The fight of Scopper Gaban and Sommers give fans an idea of how strong he is. They already know that Gaban has an incredible control of Haki's observation, because he was able to reveal the presence of the holy knights, even though they were actively trying to mask. Gaban's observation of Haki will undoubtedly play an important role in the battle, as Sommers can create an invisible thorny vines. A person with poor observation of Haki would be easily captured by Sommers, but Gaban is another animal.

I won't let them do it !!! Scopper Gaban

If Robin can hold his own against Gunku, Gaban may probably find weakness and take off Sommers. Once he finds a weak place, straw hats and other warriors can focus on it. In addition, it is likely that the holy knights and Gorosei have the same source of immortality. So if Gaban finds a way to bypass, Luffy will be able to defeat Gorosei in the future.

Will he lose straw hats in Elbaf?

Many fans also speculated that straw hats could end in loss to Elbaf, which could set another Timeckip, and it makes sense, because some crew members are still too weak. However, this also means that Elbaf could be destroyed and the giants would become an endangered race unless they face the world government. If Luffy persuades Loki to join the battle against the Holy Knights, it is safe to assume that the heroes will win and save Elbaf from demolition to the ground.
