More details of the chapter, thanks to redon from Arlong Park Forums. Chapter of 17 pages
- Chapter 1,171: “Ragnir”.
- Reader request in the cover: “Cat putting a cat ear headband on Zoro's head”.
- Chapter starts with Gaban and Jarul talking. Gaban couldn't believe that the “Treasure of Elbaph” had that kind of power. Jarul said he had never heard anything about the fruit's power and he wasn't sure if it was powerful enough to stop Harald.
Jarul: "It now sends a shiver down my spine just imagining what would have happened if Loki hadn't been here today...!!"
- Shanks remembered some conversations with Harald and Garling.
Harald (past): "The dawn of Elbaph will arrive once I join the ranks of the “Knights of God”!!”
Garling (past): "If there is anything you want just say it!! It will be yours!!
My poor child, what a chained life you must have led till now...
Forget all about below!! Those who lives down there aren't human...!!"
- Shanks grabbed Imu's mark on his arm in anger toward Imu and the Tenryuubitos. Gaban calmed him down saying he will certainly have a role to play in the future.
- Then, in a VERY SAD double page, we see Loki beside Harald's body.
- Cut to the “Empty Throne” in Mary Geoise. Imu (seated on the throne) was meeting with the Five Elders. Imu was panting, it seems Imu was affected by Harald's death.
Imu: "Mu bestowed “immortality” and “strength” upon an “Ancient Giant Warrior”...!!
Who is already a rare spectacle in himself... A “monster”!! Huff...
And someone killed it...!! Who did it...!? WHAT IS in “Elbaph”!!? Huff…”
Mars: "Let us dispatch a mission. We can take advantage of the Abyss that Harald left in Elbaph to..."
Imu: "Enough...!! It will just lead to more casualties among my knights!!
These “covenants” come at a price for Mu!! Huff... Huff..."
- Imu said Harald was a scarce specimen of his kind because he swallowed his pride in an attempt to connect with other countries and races. Imu also talked about giants and Elbaph.
Imu: "Those beings are warmongers at their core... a race of warriors.
Mindlessly taking them in will only destroy us from the inside...
A “King of Elbaph” from the race of “Ancient Giants” who would agree to partake in the covenant...
A man almost too good to be reality...!! He is a man that is better off never borne, for the sake of Elbaph as well...
Mu suppose history never lies...!! We are never meant to work hand in hands...
Never forget... “Elbaph” is “D”...!!!"
- Back to the Aurust Castle. Loki decided to go out to sea along with surviving soldiers and use his power to avenge Harald. Jarul tried to stop them but Loki didn't listen to him and left the castle with giant soldiers. Flashback ends here.
- The story returns to the present. After hearing what happened on the day of Harald’s death, Hajrudin agrees to release Loki. Hajrudin also apologizes, although he still can't forgive Loki for other crimes. Luffy is very happy because Loki is released.
- As they are talking, a Draugr (one of the MMA that Killingham manifested) falls into Underworld. Loki tells Hajrudin and others to go up first, since he can fly up there himself. Then, in another AMAZING double page, Loki takes the chains off and jumps to approach Draugr.
- Gaban asks Chopper to help him to go up too, since he's very worried about his son. Sanji carries Gaban in his arms and uses the “Sky Walk” while Chopper (on top of Sanji) asks him to be as steady as he can to prevent Gaban's health from worsening.
- Loki flies to attack Draugr with Ragnir. Luffy remains with Loki on top of him.
Loki: "What the hell are you doing over there?"
Luffy: "Shishishi!! I'm so excited to see you fight!!"
Loki: "Fine then. Show him what you've got!! “Ragnir”!!"
Ragnir: "Grrrr~~~!!"
- Then in the ABSOLUTELY EPIC final double page of the chapter, Loki hits Draugr with Ragnir that releases ice power and freezes Draugr. Luffy is stunned with Loki's power.
Loki: "“Niflheim”(kanjis mean “Origin World”)!!!"
Luffy: "What the~~~~~!!?"
- End of chapter, BREAK next week.
