ONE PIECE CHAPTER 1132: ADVENTURE IN ELBAPH

[JoNdule]

I just don't know how I should be feeling about the direction Oda is going with Elbaph.

He has been talking non-stop about everything being set up for the finale of the series and Egghead seemed to kickstart it (although we all knew it would still take longer than most fans expect), but now he completely slows down the pacing again and seemingly just starts another standard adventure arc.

This just doesn't fit the "we're in the final stage now" claims at all.

The whole pacing of the grand scheme seems off tbh.

It's like you're entering the final lap of a long race, then start your epic sprint to the finish line (Egghead) only to just say "nah" after twenty yards and instead decide to jog to your coach for a quick chat (Elbaph).

That's Oda
He's torn between ending OP and milking it for money
So at one point he starts talking big about how it's the endgame but then he goes on having a slow pace arc

 

[Rej]

There was no way Oda was going to skip Elbaf.

Thats how I see it too.

It's already too well structured and gives way too much opportunities for existing plots to prolong and establish essential references from real life lore.

Like for example the idea of splitting realms and the hint of existence of a Realm of Deads which then parallels to Brook and the River Styx myth.

There is too much going on for this to be a "last minute" decision.
It's Oda-insiders just trolling people imho, or false flag propaganda.
Maybe they intentionally mislead us so we can't estimate the end for our own sake of getting a better experience at the end.

 

[Jailer]

Very good chapter tho.

 

[Logiko]

He's torn between ending OP and milking it for money

Not really no. Oda doesn't benefit from losing time.
In fact the more he loses times, the more the probabilities he won't be able to finish it. With mangakas, that's not a joke.

 

[Kizaruber Eats]

 

[Nekomamushi]

I'm probably imagining it, but what are those white things flying along in the last panel?

Upper right corner - can you see a butterfly there? Or sparks of flame

 

[Lor D. Coast]

The only important piece of information from this chapter that we should remember is that you can sail on a rainbow, which you can draw with whatever painter is... Straight up pulled out of his ass but the way he presented those panels, this will be used in future.

And that's a good thing. We know that random cubes have powers, can't wait for OP's version of bankai.

 

[felixm]

I thought this would be just another completely baseline chapter. But I would say this is even slightly below that. Maybe in the anime some of the travel scenes would be a nice time. But I have to say Oda's "amazing" panorama here as usual looks like a completely basic drawing of houses or a place. I guess it helps to have the textboxes here. And those shocked faces about them travelling on a rainbow are completely fake hype by Oda considering they have been on sky islands before, making this not such a huge deal. But he likes to pretend that he is still in the beginning to make the experience like that for new readers.

 

[Kizaruber Eats]

We're so getting this in the near future:

That fucking title too lmao.

Oda really foreshadowed this nonsense with Luffy magicking paint out of nowhere too. Makes me wonder what Clownboy I mean Joyboy was capable of and how the fuck he lost and died too.

 

[CoC: Color of Clowns]

Oh yeah, I think you may be right about that. And I think his power is probably overexaggerated in a sense - we'll have to see what his role will be.

I was more thinking about the line from a meta perspective. It's odd to me to introduce another 'End-of-the-World' as a potential plot point, when just around ten chapters ago the story pretty plainly introduced the ACTUAL main 'End-of-the-World' plot point. That was, at least in my mind, supposed to drive the story to get to its finale, but now it seems like the story has already forgotten about it.

As much as we can meme as readers about how pointless a lot of Vegapunk's speech was for us, in-universe it is the biggest deal ever. The stakes can't get much higher, but what kind of dialogue have we had from the Straw Hats about it? Pretty much nothing. That just creates a strange tone for me, as much as I may enjoy some of the panels this chapter.

Oda is setting up Loki as another player for Pluton. Poseidon is with Fish-Man Island, Imu has Uranus from the Void War, and now has York to power it with the Mother Flame.

Ragnarok IS the Final War Whitebeard was talking about. Every Yonkou crew is still near Pluton;

Cross Guild wants military power to form a Utopia (Pluton/left over military equipment the Beast Pirates left).
Shanks wants to protect Oden's homeland
Teach will move on Pluton based on Caribou's information.
Luffy said he'd protect Wano if anyone attacks it at the end of Wano.

Loki wants Ragnarok, IMO, and the easiest way to do that is the most dangerous ship in the world, that can destroy islands.

Wano Act 3.5 is setting up Yamato exploring Wano's underworld/Ancient Wano/Pluton.

Shiki wanted to do what with Roger?

Shiki hates Shanks because he's Roger's apprentice, and if Roger had joined forces with him, Shiki could have taken over the world with Pluton/Roger/his massive fleet.

Loki hates Shanks clearly

Kidd DESPISES Shanks

That's a force strong enough to invade Wano

The WG and Fish-Man Island are historically entities that try to prevent world war. Jinbe was respected by the Gorosei for his peace efforts as a Shichibukai.

Once Pluton is activated, whichever group gets it is going to kick the rocks on Ragnarok and get the true final war going. Personally, I'm hoping for this after Pluton's activated, as the final groupings for One Piece:

Straw Hat Grand Fleet and Allies (IE Law, Koby, Boa, etc)
Red Haired Pirate + Cross Guild Alliance (makes too much sense with Buggy and Shanks and Mihawk and Shanks)
Blackbeard + Pluton + Other Bad Guys (possibly Shiki/Loki)
WG/Marine forces

Which eventually, after Laugh Tale, leads to WG + Marines + Hired Help vs Straw Hats + Allies in the Final War/Ragnarok.

A war isn't fought in a day, nor is it started in one.

 

[MUUGEN]

I was already reading and discussing OP online (2006), when you were probably still in kindergarten.

well then thats embarrassing for you to not even know the premise of the manga after reading for nearly 2 decades...

& i was teenager around this time, that was probably one of the worst come backs ive ever seen. you do realize all in all OP is a grand adventure for ones own dreams and luffy is literally on an adventure for a treasure, while the only dream from the SHs that has to do with fighting is zoros all others parallel a journey or adventure for answers to their own personal dreams ....

Here are some AI generated answers for you to better understand the manga youve been reading for 2decades

what is the underlying story of the manga one piece

ChatGPT said:

The underlying story of One Piece centers around the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy, a young pirate with the dream of finding the legendary treasure known as the One Piece and becoming the Pirate King. The narrative, created by Eiichiro Oda, is set in a vast world of seas, islands, and grand adventures, where pirates, marines, and revolutionaries clash in pursuit of power, freedom, or justice.
Core Themes:

1. Freedom and Dreams: Luffy's journey emphasizes the pursuit of personal dreams and freedom, a value shared by many characters.
2. Friendship and Loyalty: The bond between Luffy and his crew, the Straw Hat Pirates, is at the heart of the series. Each member has their own dreams and motivations, but they are united by loyalty to each other.
3. Legacy and Will: The concept of inheriting the will of those who came before, especially through "D" carriers (those with "D" in their names), plays a central role, hinting at deeper mysteries about the world's history.
4. Oppression vs. Liberation: A recurring theme involves the overthrow of corrupt rulers, oppressive regimes, and tyrannical forces like the World Government.

Plot Summary:
The story begins when Luffy, inspired by the pirate Shanks, sets out to sea. He gains the power to stretch like rubber after eating the Gum-Gum Fruit (a Devil Fruit), but loses the ability to swim. Luffy assembles a diverse crew, including:

• Zoro, a swordsman
• Nami, a navigator
• Sanji, a cook
• Usopp, a sniper
• Chopper, a doctor (reindeer)
• Robin, an archaeologist
• Franky, a shipwright
• Brook, a musician (living skeleton)
• Jinbe, a fish-man helmsman

They travel through the Grand Line, a dangerous sea where legendary pirates sail, facing powerful enemies like the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Four Emperors, and the Marines.
Mystery of the One Piece:
The treasure, left by the Pirate King Gol D. Roger, is believed to be located on the final island, Laugh Tale. Its true nature is a central mystery, with hints suggesting it ties into the "Void Century," a lost period of history erased by the World Government.
One Piece blends action, humor, and emotional storytelling, making it a global phenomenon with deep lore, unforgettable characters, and rich world-building.

what does romance dawn mean in the one piece manga

ChatGPT said:

Romance Dawn is the title of the original prototype for One Piece and serves as a symbolic foundation for the entire series. It holds deep meaning both narratively and thematically:
1. Prototype Origins:

• Eiichiro Oda created two one-shot manga called Romance Dawn before One Piece officially began. These early versions introduced the character of Monkey D. Luffy and the basic premise of a young pirate setting off to sea to pursue freedom and adventure.
• The title "Romance Dawn" was later used as the name for the first chapter of One Piece.

2. Symbolism of the Title:

• "Romance": Refers to the romanticized ideal of adventure, dreams, and the thrill of the unknown. It reflects the spirit of a pirate's life—freedom, exploration, and following one's dreams without constraint.
• "Dawn": Symbolizes the beginning of a journey, a new era, or a hopeful future. In One Piece, the concept of "dawn" frequently represents a coming change or liberation, hinting at the potential downfall of the oppressive World Government.

3. Narrative Significance:

• Luffy's Journey: Luffy's departure from his home village in search of the One Piece marks the "dawn" of his adventure and the start of his pursuit to become Pirate King.
• Themes of Liberation: Throughout the series, the notion of "bringing the dawn" is a recurring theme. Characters like Gol D. Roger and Monkey D. Dragon suggest that a major event or revolution (often symbolized by the "dawn") is on the horizon.

4. Connection to the Greater Story:
In the overarching plot of One Piece, the concept of "Romance Dawn" is not just the beginning of Luffy's personal journey but also a metaphor for the broader quest to usher in a new age of freedom, knowledge, and justice, challenging the world's current order.
In essence, "Romance Dawn" encapsulates the spirit of adventure, the pursuit of dreams, and the hope for a brighter future—all of which define the essence of One Piece.

what is the grand scheme of the one piece manga

ChatGPT said:

The grand scheme of One Piece revolves around a layered and complex narrative that weaves together personal ambition, global conflict, and the pursuit of truth. At its core, it’s a story about freedom, dreams, legacy, and the unraveling of a hidden history that could change the world.
1. Luffy’s Personal Dream:

• Becoming the Pirate King: Luffy’s primary goal is to find the legendary treasure, the One Piece, and become the Pirate King. For him, this title represents ultimate freedom—the ability to live without constraints or fear.
• Gathering His Crew: Luffy assembles the Straw Hat Pirates, each with their own dreams, symbolizing how individual aspirations can align with a shared purpose.

2. The Mystery of the One Piece:

• The treasure left by Gol D. Roger, the former Pirate King, is said to be located on Laugh Tale, the final island of the Grand Line.
• The One Piece is more than just material wealth; it is closely tied to the Void Century, a 100-year period erased from history, and the True History of the world, which the World Government has tried to suppress.
• It likely holds the key to understanding the ancient weapons (Pluton, Poseidon, and Uranus) and the true nature of the World Government.

3. The "Will of D." and the Dawn of a New Era:

• Those with the initial "D." in their names (like Luffy, Gol D. Roger, and Monkey D. Dragon) are said to be "enemies of the gods" (the ruling Celestial Dragons).
• They are connected to a prophecy about the "dawn" of a new era, suggesting they are destined to overthrow the oppressive rule of the World Government.
• Monkey D. Dragon, Luffy’s father, leads the Revolutionary Army, aiming to dismantle the current world order.

4. World Government and Oppression:

• The World Government maintains control through the Marines, Cipher Pol, and the Celestial Dragons (descendants of the original 20 kings who founded the World Government).
• The story critiques authoritarianism, corruption, and class inequality. Luffy's journey often involves liberating oppressed people, from kingdoms like Alabasta and Dressrosa to islands like Fish-Man Island.

5. Themes of Legacy and Freedom:

• Inherited Will: A recurring theme is that the dreams and ideals of the past are carried forward by the next generation. Luffy’s journey mirrors Gol D. Roger’s, continuing the quest to bring the "dawn."
• Freedom vs. Control: The series emphasizes the value of personal freedom and the cost of pursuing it, contrasting it with the World Government’s desire for absolute control.

6. Global Revolution and the Endgame:

• The final chapters are likely to involve a massive conflict between the Revolutionary Army, pirates, and the World Government, culminating in a revelation about the Void Century and the fate of the world.
• Luffy’s quest for the One Piece will coincide with the world’s liberation, suggesting that the true "treasure" may not be gold but the realization of a free and just world.

Conclusion:
The grand scheme of One Piece is a journey of self-discovery, friendship, and liberation, wrapped in a quest for the ultimate treasure. It is not just about finding the One Piece but about changing the world, challenging oppressive systems, and bringing about the "dawn" of a new era of freedom and truth.

is one piece manga an adventure or an action manga?

ChatGPT said:

One Piece is both an adventure and action manga, with each genre playing a significant role in shaping the series:
1. Adventure Genre:

• The core of One Piece is an epic journey across vast, diverse seas filled with mysterious islands, unique cultures, and ancient secrets.
• Themes of exploration and discovery are central. Each arc introduces new locations like the sky island Skypiea, the underwater Fish-Man Island, or the eerie Thriller Bark.
• The overarching quest to find the One Piece treasure embodies the classic adventure trope of searching for the unknown.
• The Straw Hat Pirates' encounters with mythical creatures, ancient ruins, and legendary artifacts like the Poneglyphs add to the sense of wonder.

2. Action Genre:

• The series is packed with intense battles and epic fights, often featuring creative powers derived from Devil Fruits and advanced combat techniques like Haki.
• Each arc features major conflicts against powerful antagonists, from warlords like Crocodile to emperors like Kaido.
• Luffy’s battles, such as his iconic fights against Rob Lucci, Doflamingo, and Katakuri, showcase high-stakes action with emotional depth.
• Large-scale conflicts, like the Marineford War and the Onigashima Raid, bring massive, action-packed set pieces that are pivotal to the story.

Blending of Genres:

• One Piece masterfully balances the thrill of exploration with dynamic, high-energy combat. The sense of wonder from the adventure is often complemented by the excitement of battles.
• Emotional stakes, humor, and camaraderie add depth to both the adventure and action elements.

Conclusion:
While One Piece is primarily labeled as a shonen manga—which often emphasizes action—it is equally an adventure manga, with the journey being just as important as the battles. Its enduring appeal lies in how it seamlessly combines these genres, creating a rich and expansive world full of both excitement and discovery.

Elbaf is a bigger deal than finding the One Piece for me. 100 more chapters, please

 

[CoC: Color of Clowns]

The only important piece of information from this chapter that we should remember is that you can sail on a rainbow, which you can draw with whatever painter is... Straight up pulled out of his ass but the way he presented those panels, this will be used in future.

This comment led me down a wonderful path of flat-earther memes involving Rainbows.

Who knows; maybe when the Firmament was still in place, we could sail on Rainbows?

 

[NAMELESS]

Oda is setting up Loki as another player for Pluton. Poseidon is with Fish-Man Island, Imu has Uranus from the Void War, and now has York to power it with the Mother Flame.

Ragnarok IS the Final War Whitebeard was talking about. Every Yonkou crew is still near Pluton;

Cross Guild wants military power to form a Utopia (Pluton/left over military equipment the Beast Pirates left).
Shanks wants to protect Oden's homeland
Teach will move on Pluton based on Caribou's information.
Luffy said he'd protect Wano if anyone attacks it at the end of Wano.

Loki wants Ragnarok, IMO, and the easiest way to do that is the most dangerous ship in the world, that can destroy islands.

Wano Act 3.5 is setting up Yamato exploring Wano's underworld/Ancient Wano/Pluton.

Shiki wanted to do what with Roger?

Shiki hates Shanks because he's Roger's apprentice, and if Roger had joined forces with him, Shiki could have taken over the world with Pluton/Roger/his massive fleet.

Loki hates Shanks clearly

Kidd DESPISES Shanks

That's a force strong enough to invade Wano

The WG and Fish-Man Island are historically entities that try to prevent world war. Jinbe was respected by the Gorosei for his peace efforts as a Shichibukai.

Once Pluton is activated, whichever group gets it is going to kick the rocks on Ragnarok and get the true final war going. Personally, I'm hoping for this after Pluton's activated, as the final groupings for One Piece:

Straw Hat Grand Fleet and Allies (IE Law, Koby, Boa, etc)
Red Haired Pirate + Cross Guild Alliance (makes too much sense with Buggy and Shanks and Mihawk and Shanks)
Blackbeard + Pluton + Other Bad Guys (possibly Shiki/Loki)
WG/Marine forces

Which eventually, after Laugh Tale, leads to WG + Marines + Hired Help vs Straw Hats + Allies in the Final War/Ragnarok.

A war isn't fought in a day, nor is it started in one.

Blackbeard is going after both Ancient Weapons thnx to Caribou.

 

[Djordje]

I just don't know how I should be feeling about the direction Oda is going with Elbaph.

This just doesn't fit the "we're in the final stage now" claims at all.

The whole pacing of the grand scheme seems off tbh.

It's like you're entering the final lap of a long race, then start your epic sprint to the finish line (Egghead) only to just say "nah" after twenty yards and instead decide to jog to your coach for a quick chat (Elbaph).

Bro you cant build up a hype without proper introduction.

Dont rush greatness my friend Elbaf arc will be amazing.

[NikaInParis]

I don't think it works that way Loki was born 63 years ago doesn't matter if he's giant or human he could of easily had a son In that time, Collon looks to be about 10

The giants aren't dogs there isn't some weird age conversion they don't age faster or anything like that they just have longer life spans

I mean, they do age differently considering Jorul and Jarul shoudl have been bed-ridden skeletons if aging and bodily processes were the exact same, 1:1, as with normal humans.

 

[Djordje]

The left hand of the Pirate King, Scopper Gaban:
It will be revealed that after Roger’s death and the disbandment of the crew, he set fire to the Orojackson to conceal the ship and in doing so also let the fire burn himself to conceal his identity - ‘man with the burn scar’. Furthermore, I think it will be revealed that the egg on the ship, is actually a massive Seaking which hatched after Roger’s death and now travels under the ship (which allows Gaban to move the ship without a crew) and also creates the whirlpools which sink any ship that comes close to them. It will be revealed that Gaban was tasked with protecting the last Road Poneglyph by Roger until the arrival of Joy Boy.

Why was Gaban tasked with this instead of Rayleigh?

Well Rayleigh and Shakky got married and settled down so Roger didn’t want to burden them with the responsibility of the ship, the road poneglyph, and the Sea King?

Man cool theory

 

[Yoho]

I mean, they do age differently considering Jorul and Jarul shoudl have been bed-ridden skeletons if aging and bodily processes were the exact same, 1:1, as with normal humans.

They have longer life spans which means they don't reach old age at the same rate yes they age differently in the fact that there bodies don't being to break down as early the average human life span in one piece is probably at best 90s with Kureha being an outlier they live longer and their bodies age slower but that's not the same as saying Loki can't have a kid because he's only 20 in some weird giant to human conversion

63 years is 63 years mentally and physically he may be equivalent to a 20 year old but chronologically and Biologically he's 63

 

[CoC: Color of Clowns]

Blackbeard is going after both Ancient Weapons thnx to Caribou.

I agree, but, I also believe Pluton is a Submarine.

If Teach is aware that Pluton is a Submarine, it makes way more sense to steal Pluton, then use it to invade Fish-Man Island.
