This has to be a record for fastest chapter release.

Chopper joining the fight next Chapter when he remembers that he's a Monster too.

Chopper realizes Imu is about to win

Chopper wipes his brow, and says, "If I die... tell Luffy I died as a monster, and a hero of Elbaph!"

Chopper takes out a container full of 30 Rumble Balls, and eats all of them at once

GEAR... DEER​

Oh Nika Luffy is actually way bigger than I thought… the Straw Hat on his back is very hard to see but it gives a solid scale of just how big Nika Luffy is.

Yeah, in the Raws I couldn't tell if that was the Straw Hat or just some noise from the scans/AI upscale.

Nope, that's his hat, this is a BIG MONKE.

Big Monke >>> Big Mom, I'm sorry, even as a Charlotte Linlin fan, the facts are facts.

So Luffy ran away, I guess Nika took over and left? But why?​

1.There is something in the Village, that we don’t know
2. Rain God Zaza , hates One Piece Gods
3. For fun

I wonder if its just a natural reaction to being near Imu, not of fear but avoidance. The Gorosei did say that the fruit had a mind of its own and was avoiding them for centuries.

MU lives is in danger
I saw great discusion online, that Mu might be the Human and I the Devil that took over the body
Which means that his body cannot go outside MarieJoise for long and survive

We know that Lili and Joy Boy were close.

Is it possible Nika is attracted to Lili's Tool?

If Nika actually knew Zaza as an ally, I could see Nika wanting to destroy an imitation of Zaza being used for evil.

Nika is also the Warrior of Liberation, and Zaza was kidnapping children. By killing Zaza's MMA, the water holding the Giants kids should dissipate.

If we actually look at it logically, this Nika is acting more of a Warrior than Liberation than Luffy, as immediately after spawning in his first action was to destroy the being kidnapping Elbaph's children, IE taking their freedom away.

So far, their actions have been positive/aimed at saving the Giant Children.

If Nika remembers Lili from Joy Boy's past, it's very possible Nika has a large soft spot for Giant Children. Definitely has history with the country considering his encounters with Elbaph's War God.

I said this years ago when the Sabo/Imu chapter came out:​

Just my thoughts after the chapter:​

In this chapter we see what I thought first to be arrows hitting Cobra and Sabo:

But on second reading I thought to myself what if those are a tail? More specifically devil tails:

The tail here looks extremely similar to the ''arrows'' we saw in the chapter.

And then you have Sabo saying this:

'' I didnt know that Hell was located here, at the very top of the world'', right after the Gorosei and Imu's transformation. This added with the way Imu seemingly ate Sabo's fire me me pause.

The Gorosei could be devil like creatures and Imu would be the prime devil fruit.

​

Made another thread when the Harley came out about Imu likely being the incarnation of the Earth God aka the Devil.​

@PuckTheGreat sorry to bother. In the japanese, does Imu claim that he used much power against Loki in terms of "pure power" or limit.

How can the word power mean limit though.

How can the word power mean limit though.

Like stamina / timeout limit.

 

[Fujishiro]

Like stamina / timeout limit.

Oh I think its much worse then stamina, Imu was shown multiple times coughing up blood. In the same panels where he says hes nearing his limit hes coughing again.

We must preserve the Imu agenda.

 

[felixm]

Oda postpones the Loki Hybrid for ages, only to postpone showing it when it is finally activated. When he finally shows it, he completely skipped any significant (or any) action of it... He also simply can't show Sanji or Zoro getting to the friggin' point, and either skips them or shows them endlessly doing the same thing.
In addition to that, he seems to let Imu officially announce he'll be off in a short while. So all that would have been just passing the time or level ups for Zoro and Sanji.
I cannot give such a thing a "hype" score.

 

[Logiko]

So Luffy ran away, I guess Nika took over and left? But why?

Because Luffy is a zoan. G5 did not simply liberate Luffy, it liberated his power too. We took for granted the information that Luffy awakened his fruit, but to me, this was only the first stage (the liberation). This is the second (the loss of control)

And the third and final stage (the control) will arrive soon after. But first, we need the 2.5 (the restriction). In the Wukong way (at least if I trust what I read about the journey to the west, I need to read it)

Mu and Imu are two different entities. That’s why when talking to Cobra he stated “Mu has questions” yet later he said “I desire Vivi”

Mu is separate.

Interesting idea.
